Chapter 27

“Heart, Are you have a napkin?” Gigi asked the young lady who immediately froze in response to her friend’s pickup line.

“Why?” Even though she didn’t want to, those words slipped out of Heart's lips involuntarily.

“Because your mind is flying even though it doesn’t have wings.”

Annoying.

They both laughed.

“You’re impossible. I’m having a moment here, and you’re breaking it with your pickup line,” she said, shaking her head at her close friend.

“Well, your mind has traveled so far. If I could hitch a ride on it, I’d probably be in America or on another planet.”

They hailed a taxi. It had come to pick her up from the hospital. It had accompanied her mother to watch over her father, and now they were heading home. Her mother had just been sleeping at the hospital because a stretcher was available in the room her father occupied.

Since they were headed in the same direction, they decided to ride together. She trusted her friend, so there was no issue with her knowing

    Chapter 28NOTE: Sir, just eat there. I cooked a meal and rice. I need to leave early. I have to go back to DSWD to line up. You can come back before I go to work if you want to have fun. Take care on your way home, sir.He smirked, staring at the sticky note plastered onto the door. He raised an eyebrow but glanced at the watch he was wearing.Have fun? Did she just call it love making? Or maybe Heart just wasn’t used to saying the word ‘sex.’ He wasn’t blind to not notice that it wasn’t explicit.He wondered if the woman had slept, or perhaps he was the one who was asleep, so he didn’t notice if she had joined him in bed.He removed the sticky note and carried it with him as he left the room. He walked to the kitchen to eat. He was quite hungry, especially since he hadn’t eaten last night due to his frustration with Diana. Even his grandmother hardly spoke because of their arguments as a married couple.And now he would taste the food Heart had cooked. He opened the dish cabinet. It

    Chapter 29Heart was exhausted after a day of taking care of things. The results of her efforts were positive. Her father’s hospital bill had been reduced by eighty thousand pesos. The agency had called the hospital, and there was now a voucher for eighty thousand.The doctor had already restitched her father’s wound. Her mother assured her that it was fine. She was walking in the condo lobby when she suddenly felt dizzy and weak, but she tried to call her siblings to check on them.Lexus answered her call, which brought a smile to her face. “Ate,” he warmly greeted her.“Is that Lexi?”“Yes, Ate, she’s in the living room working on a project. We have a lot of assignments, Ate.”“You can do it. Study well, and I’ll take care of you,” she said as she entered the elevator. However, she felt unsteady as the elevator moved, and she had to lean against the wall.The dizziness passed, and she composed herself. She was just so tired, juggling so many roles in life.“Yes, Ate.

    Chapter 30Heart's eyes flickered open, greeted by a bright light. She groaned and asked Lux, "What happened?""Thank God, you're awake!" Lux exclaimed, even though he himself was momentarily blinded by the light. He was holding a magazine and quickly rose from a sofa. Heart, still dazed, wondered why they weren't in the condo anymore.As Lux approached, he repeatedly checked her and gently pressed his hand to her forehead. She had passed out, and she now remembered that. But it all felt like a dream, and she couldn't be sure if it had really happened or not.She blinked at Lux as he lifted his face to look her in the eyes. "You're not too hot anymore," he said with a smile.Heart just nodded, saying, "Thanks for bringing me here, but I wish you took me back to the condo. It adds to my expenses.""Jesus, Heart," Lux stood upright, seemingly irritated, "Even now that you're unwell, you're worried about expenses? Will you try to relax just for now?"She remained silent, avoiding his gaz

    Chapter 31Heart was surprised when the door suddenly opened while she was having her blood drawn. It was already seven in the morning, and she hadn’t eaten yet.Manang Siony went downstairs to buy some hot soup from a nearby eatery close to the hospital.“Good morning, Heart!” her friends greeted her in unison when they saw her.She laughed upon seeing them, with Gigi at the forefront. “You all are so early,” she said, hardly feeling the pain when the needle pricked her vein.“Well, of course. We can’t miss the sight of your beautiful face even in the morning,” her best friend remarked, but she noticed the guy behind the group.She frowned while sneaking a peek. “Bombay is with you,” Gigi whispered, rolling her eyes.“Let it go, there’s nothing we can do. You’ll just end up fighting.”“He’s so persistent, like a barnacle.”“What happened to you, Heart?” Aiza asked.At that moment, Franco put away his cell phone and faced her. The guy smiled at her.“I just missed my sweetheart,” he s

    Chapter 32“Bye, sir!” One of his female employees in the lobby said when he passed by, yet he remained stern and grumpy. He just glanced at her.He couldn’t fake a smile, damn it! He’d been in a foul mood since this morning. At first, he couldn’t understand why he felt that way, but as moments passed, as if there were images flashing inside his mind, he realized what was ticking him off.He was feeling it all wrong. It wasn’t right because he was annoyed when he arrived at the hospital earlier and bumped into that damn Franco Rodriguez, his hand caressing Heart’s head.He’s possessive. In his mind, he was concluding that Heart was his. She’s his woman, damn it! No one else should be touching Heart, just him.Why was that man acting like he was her boyfriend? Maybe Heart was lying to him. Maybe that Franco guy really had a relationship with her.And she didn’t protest about the wedding. He, the fool, even offered to be a sponsor, then he got annoyed at his own words.And until now, he

    Chapter 33“JERK!”Lux’s eyes widened as he lifted himself from the bed, and a flying calculator hit him in the face. He dodged, but it landed on his chest. He took a deep breath and clenched his fists, staring at his furious, poised wife.“How dare you talk about me with those people?! What do you know about counseling? So, what are you telling your friends, that I have a problem?!” She angrily exclaimed, her eyes blazing.She stood by the office table, seemingly packing her bag, but it ended up as ammunition against him.“Will you damn calm down and explain that thing to me? Will you?” he asked in a tone that he couldn’t determine as anger or calm.“Why don’t you explain it yourself, Lux? Why are you discussing counseling with them? Do you have a problem with me?” she asked boldly.“Ask yourself,” he replied emotionlessly and flicked the comforter, “If you ever throw something at me again, Diana, don’t show your face to me. Maybe I won’t spare you.”Lux’s face darkened, as did his g

    Chapter 34She blinked back her tears, wiping her eyes with her fingers, so that no one entering the room could see her cry. But that’s how the person found her when the door opened.It’s him!Heart’s lips quivered, and her chest was overwhelmed with a strange nervousness, a feeling she only experienced when they looked at each other. Perhaps that was the real heart attack.“Are you crying?” He asked, slightly pausing while closing the door.She shook her head but quickly sniffled. She felt foolish.“Damn. What’s wrong?” He asked with concern, moving closer to her.Lux immediately reached out for her and examined her face.“Do you have any pain?” He asked as he looked her over.She shook her head and remained silent. What could she say? She didn’t want to admit the truth. But it hurt when he didn’t respond. Was that right? No, it was wrong. She shouldn’t be feeling anything; that was their deal. She was crossing a line by admitting this for the second time.Worse things could happen.

    Chapter 35He pushed the door of the office when he didn’t find his secretary at her table, but he was halted when he saw luggage on the floor, just in front of a teenager. She’s wearing a black jumper and a white cap, hair was parted and dangling in front of her chest. “What the hell are you doing here, lady?” He raised an eyebrow as he questioned the teenage girl. She just looked at him, so he closed the door.Katy had grown so much, and at sixteen, she was remarkably beautiful. She looked like a beauty queen, sitting on a sofa with a very straight back and crossed legs, she could pass as a Bb. Pilipinas candidate.“What are you doing here, Katyleene Anne?” He asked seriously, using her full name, but she suddenly burst into tears. “Jesus,” he muttered and approached her. He removed her hat and examined her. “Kuya,” she said, sniffling again, but suddenly covered her mouth as if she was about to vomit.Lux felt like he’d been hit with a bucket of ice. He couldn’t move as his sister

    35."Go to the parking, CEO's." That's the text that caught Ruth's attention as she was about to go home, exhausted. She wondered why Lush even picked her up; someone might see them. Glancing at Berna, her friend seemed almost done with her tasks. Her other companions were still around."I'll wait for you, sweetie." What should she reply? She's been waiting for Ricky's update, but nothing so far. She sighed, unable to refuse, even though she didn't really want to."B-Berna," she called her friend, who looked up after securing the body bag. "S-Sir L-Miguel... says he's waiting for me in the parking," she said in a soft voice, widening Berna's eyes."What?" Berna questioned, "Maybe that's something else, friend. You're already married. He might just be a flirt."Guilt crept in as she couldn't tell her friend about what was happening with Lush Miguel."Uh-uh. I think I have a schedule," she reasoned out, feeling embarrassed."Berna," a man called, and they all turned to look. Melo was t

    34.“AREN’T we going to have lunch together?” Lush asked her, but she just glanced at her wristwatch.In thirty minutes, it’s time.“I can, but I need to handle something first. How about next time?” she replied to avoid the situation.Lush teased her, “Next time it is. I’ll just have lunch alone.”“Oh, playing the most pitiful one,” Ruth said with a smile, and he smiled back a little, “I’ll join you, maybe for dinner at the condo next time.”“Let’s eat out instead. I can’t go to the condo yet because of Babuela. Let’s keep meeting for lunch or dinner.”“Payment?”He chuckled at her question, “Still paying.”“Just kidding. Okay, I’ll join you. I know you’re sad because of Babuela. I’ll leave now. Get some sleep when you can. It’s hard to get sick. Many will lose their jobs if you die.”Lush laughed at her words.“Why, that’s true. Have you had lunch? Eat now, okay? Unlike me, I can eat even while running,” he boasted.“I’ll eat nearby.”A taxi entered the hospital entrance

    33.“Who are you?” the nurse asked Ruth at the station, while the young lady stood in front the counter, inquiring about Carmenzita Montesalvo’s room. That’s what Lush encountered when he descended. The woman’s tone seemed irritated, and Ruth couldn’t escape the scrutinizing eyes that scanned her appearance.“I can’t tell you the room number. Only important people can visit her, the wealthy ones in the elite society,” the woman snapped.“And whose order?” Lush sharply questioned as he stepped out behid the wall. Everyone there, including Ruth, turned to look at him.“Lush!” Ruth exclaimed, and he smiled briefly, but his attention returned to the disrespectful woman, insulting his great grandmother's visitor.“How can you say that a person belongs to high society? Is it based on clothing?” he asked, feeling irritated.“No, sir,” the nurse replied with a smirk.“You just said it and I heard it. You’re disrespecting my grandmother’s visitor just because she’s wearing a janitress uniform.

    32.One scrub, one deep sob. Ruth can’t stop crying; her heart aches from what she heard on her cellphone. Is she really foolish? Now, she feels torn in two. She doesn’t want to believe what she heard, but she also doesn’t want to be a complete fool. It’s hard for her to understand what she should think now, but she strongly suspects Baron is deceiving her.If it’s true, they should talk and end it all. She wonders what mistake she made and what Baron did. If her womanly instinct is right, she sold herself for an unworthy man who seemingly deceived her for three years. Ruth tolerated his tantrums, arrogance, and pretended indifference during their fights. She thought it was normal in a relationship, expecting him to come back after three days.Baron was her first boyfriend, and all she wanted was for him not to force kisses and sex when she said no. Despite his apparent frustration, he didn’t force her into explicit acts. Now, she wonders if the reason their setup worked was because h

    31Ruth remained silent as she changed her clothes. She felt as if struck by lightning when Dennis openly insulted her earlier. It was true, but she couldn't help but cry as the painful truth sank in. Despite whatever reason he had for his arrogance, it felt like she had been stabbed."What happened between you and Mr. Dennis, Ruti?" Mary inquired, catching Ruth's attention. They weren't super close friends, but they weren't enemies either. Ruth didn't respond, acknowledging Dennis' words were true. She disliked his disrespect but had never experienced such rudeness before."That old hag is getting bold. Maybe she wants to taste some couple action!" Berna commented, throwing a swift karate move, losing balance, but someone caught her under the armpits."Oops!" they exclaimed, and Ruth quickly pulled her best friend, both looking up at the man.Tha man gazed at Berna, resembling Sunghoon of Enhypen like a twin.

    30 They stared at each other when Lush felt that he was about to come. He was cursing, almost gripping Ruth’s hair. “Ah, fuck you,” he said then caressed her jaw and shook his head. His eyes were most likely filled with tears as his masculinity was inside her mouth. He suddenly pulled it to release his penis, and then he pulled her over his body. He was grinding his dick against her breasts as he came. He couldn’t stand to come in her mouth. Flirty women are not able to swallow sometimes, this one is even able to shed tears after sucking him. He didn’t force her but she did what she wanted without asking or anything. All that she asked was how? He makes her watch porn and she gets the blowjob method. He loved it. He loved it but he had his respect if she would never do it and gave him satisfaction. He couldn’t force it. He Is really dead. Looks like things aren’t going well for him. The typical qualities he wanted in the woman he slept with were now mixed wit

Even Muse looks confused, gazing at him without taking its eyes off of him.Why is it so damn hard to prepare the table and his dish? He only cooked sweet and sour meatballs, homemade ones. It's his specialty from Oas, learned in hismother’s metown. His Owa and Owo who managed the eatery became successful when they started selling it at the eatery.“What do you think, Muse? Can I be a boyfriend now?” He asked the cat, receiving a disapproving look.He doesn't know why he's doing all this for Ruth. What's so special about her? Nothing really. Nothing, but there's something different about Ruth. Her simplicity captures his precious attention. Perhaps, he was just waiting for someone like his mother.Love, like his mother, is kind, simple despite being rich, not fussy, and acts like she's not wealthy. He thinks women like his mom make the best wives.He's sweaty, wearing only boxers

    ."WHOEVER you're dating right now, I like her," Heart teased as Lush exited his great grandmother's room.He immediately furrowed his brow and closed the door, "You're being silly, Mom.""Silly," she said, almost tauntingly while holding a fashion magazine, "it's even harder to believe if you say you're not dating anyone, dear."He chuckled and stood beside his mother, thinking of Ruth. He currently didn't have a girlfriend. It was Sunday, his day off, and it was a miracle he came here after visiting Love and his nieces and nephews.It doesn't usually happen. He doesn't go without a girl every day, but today is different. Many have invited him out since Friday night, but he patiently waited for Sunday night. And that night is tonight.No one to invite, though. He wanted to invite Ricky to have a drink at his pub, but his friend claimed to be busy.Ortis and Curt were different from Ricky.

    27.“Thank you,” Ruth said to him as she stopped him at a house. It was just at the corner, with a tall green gate.He looked at It and scanned the place. “Do you live here now?” he inquired, and the girl nodded.“Okay,” he said, about to remove his seatbelt, but Ruth stopped him.“No need. I can handle it. I am not your girlfriend for you to open the door for me,” she told him.“You don’t have to be my girlfriend for me to do that. If you deserve it, I will.” He finally got out and moved to the other door. He glanced at the house. This one’s safer than the other apartment where she lived.“This seems a nicer place, sweetie,” he commented and glanced at her. She looked around as if searching for something, so he did the same.“Is there a problem?”“H-Ha?” She quickly looked at him. “N-Nothing. Maybe… kidnapper. You’re rich, after all and some goons might be eyeing you.”He smiled, “I have tight security. I have there,” he pointed to the back. Two SUVs were there.“Later, one of those
