It became awkward between the two of us. After what happened earlier, I just watched a TV show.

He was in the seat next to me. We seem to feel each other’s mood.

I want to speed up time so the night comes faster. I want to enter Mr. Shein’s room and talk to him all night.

I don't know why we got to the point where he was hugging me. I didn't even have an idea before. I was carried away by my emotions.

It's like my tears. When I was filled inside, I just started crying even though the reason was very shallow. Really annoying.

I saw him stand up. I followed him with a look. He seems to be going out of the house. Will he leave me? I hope not.

I'm really afraid of being left alone. I was about to get up to follow him when he suddenly came back with a pizza. I smelled the scent he brought.

Oprah jumped off the floor and ran over to Harold. Maybe beg for food.

I swallowed as the scent stung my nose even more when he opened it. Great! Appetizing.

"Pizza," I heard him say. I want to i

    10 years ago The sky is mourning. You see nothing but a glimpse of light behind the thick dark of columbus clouds. It's sparkling, causing sounds that brings fear and anxiety to everyone. The loud thunder that strikes in the sky gives scream to the hymn of a child from her deep slumber. People are running, putting their things above their head, covering it from the droplets that slowly pouring in the surface. She's sitting in the single seated chair outside the store. Holding the books tightly without minding the people surrounds her. Of all the people running outside, he was the only one that Harold Oliver Shein was watching in front. He couldn't approach her even though he wanted to protect her with the umbrella he was carrying. No rain fell on him, but his clothes were wet from sweat when he ran from their house to Lorelay's school. "I’m late." Mr. Shein whispered as he continued to watch the girl who was silently waiting for the rain to stop. An hour passed. Sheila arrives

    "You smell like strawberries," I cursed myself non-stop after my wife said that. I just ate strawberries a while ago when she's washing the dishes. And literally forgot about it. I take a deep breath and look at the mirror. I've done so many mistakes today. I almost exposed myself earlier when Gregg called me. I used to be with him in the camp when I joined the army. I never thought that we would meet at the grocery store earlier. And I just realized lately that I was wearing the wrong contact lens. I took the cellphone from the drawer and saw that Lee had a missed call. I looked at Lorelay before going out. Lee is calling again. I took the porridge he brought to the room and put it down. Oprah immediately greeted me. I gained weight everyday. I need to go to the gym to exercise or else I will gain weight. I ate twice a night. I can't say no to my wife. She cooked it for me so I don't want to waste it. "Shein," "Yes?" "Where are you?" “Home. Why?” "I saw your brother," -----

    "So you're a voice actor now?" I frowned when I heard the two in the kitchen. I'm ready to go. When I looked at myself in the mirror earlier, I smiled when I saw that the uniform fit on me. It's just surprising because I didn't say my size, but it looks like my husband already knows what it is. Why not? He has seen your whole body.' I blushed when I heard myself talking to the reflection in the mirror. Also, my clothes here are my size. It's like everything is customized for me. Even shoes or slippers. Everything fits. I went back to the kitchen and heard the two talking. "Shut up!" his interlocutor growled, which made my forehead frown. Mr. Shein's voice?! He's here? I hurried to go to them, but what I found was Richmoon and Harold eating. They turned to me together. I was disappointed to see that Mr. Shein was not with them. I thought I could see his face. "Why?" asked Rich. I smiled rawly at them. I met Harold's eyes. I smiled at him. "Nothing. I heard the voice of Mr. Shein,

    Everything I don't know what’s inside yet. I was quiet while going to my room. All of my classmates were boys. They make a lot of noise but some of them are old or maybe older than me and most of them are obviously young. I sat in the back part because everyone in the front seats were occupied. I'm an irregular student so I have a class in another department. Everyone was silent when I entered and all their eyes were focused on me. There were a few women inside but they were still young. Everyone knows each other and has their own group except for people who are like me. "Are you an irregular student?" asked the woman who seems to be older than me. I nodded and smiled at her. "We are the same," she said. Everyone was quiet when the class started. My first subject in this morning is Solid Mechanics and later is Physics 2 but BSED Science students will be with me later. When the class ended, I left the room and went to the bench and sat there while waiting for my next class. I took

    "Where have you been?" wrinkled when Harold asked me."Just had a coffee," I said and immediately turned around to the back. I still thought about Edmund. I'm freaking out again. Maybe later it's just a normal look and I'm just putting meaning to it.I waited for Harold to enter the front. He didn't act immediately so I looked at him in surprise. "Aren't we leaving yet?" I asked him in surprise."Who were you with in the café earlier?""Just a new friend," I answered but immediately turned my eyes away."Why can't you look at me?""Why? What is the connection of the look?” I'm also a bit annoyed with him."Why are you talking to me like that?""You're so ugly," I said annoyed. He suddenly became silent. I'm speechless here at the back. I just felt that he drove the car away.When I got down I didn't wait for him to open me. I opened the door and went straight inside the house."What are you doing?" wrinkled when Harold asked a question that I didn't even bother to answer. He will take

    At night, I fell asleep on the sofa while trying to avoid Harold. I was disgusted that I was losing weight with him last night. Whatever he was doing. I just woke up inside the room of Mr. Shein but he is no longer by my side.I wasn't nervous anymore because I felt that Harold was already at the bottom. Anyway, I'm still thinking about the possibility that Mr. Shein and he might be one and the same. It's not that vague. But I wonder if my suspicions are true."Good morning," I immediately looked up when I heard what Harold said. I frowned when his silly smile greeted me. I narrowed my eyes at him. What else could he be thinking?What do you think about that? I wanted to ask her but I felt embarrassed when I saw that it was freshly bathed and in very good shape. Where is he going?I looked away and went to the kitchen to drink water."Hey, I said good morning," I stopped for a moment. I looked at Harold and saw him frowning and seemed to be frowning as he folded his arms to the side.

    "What do you need and you've been following?" I asked with a frown. I also took a bath with Oprah and I was planning to take a bath too but I'm already annoyed with Harold who has been paying attention to me for a while now."What? I just want to drink water.” He said but he is next to me here in CR."So what are you going to drink? Tub water?” he immediately frowned again."What do you need?" I'm about to run out of patience with him."Date. I want us to date.” I was surprised by what he said."Are you alright? No. I do not want!""Why don't you?" he said frowning. I was stunned by his question. Why don't I? Isn't it obvious?"Because I'm married!""We won't tell your husband that we date." Why did he say this? Is this his way to disturb me? His courage."Are you Mr. Shane?” I expected him to be surprised but he wasn't. He suddenly scolded me for the reason why I backed away."What makes you think I'm him?"I looked at him. "Why? Isn't it?”“No. Cause I'm better than him." He answere

    "Stop it, Veron.""What? I just saved your ass, Shein.” I shook my head when I saw his eyes roll before he drank the cocktail from the glass.She's putting my life at risk. My wife ignored me for whole fvcking day yesterday even earlier when I took her to school because of what she did. And now she's telling me she saved my ass? She's awful."Sir," I looked up and I saw Vicente, fixing his necktie, handling me the documents that I need to sign. "Good morning, ma'am Veronica.""Hello, Vicente. You look good. How are you?”"Thank you. I'm fine.”“You know what, I'm offering you double. Leave Shein alone. Work for me.” I scolded Veronica. Try him Veron. You won't succeed. She's tripping me but I'm confident with Vicente's loyalty to me."I'm sorry ma'am but I need to take down your offer." Veron rolled his eyes at me when he heard Vicente's look at him. I couldn't help but grin at him.“Here. Thank you for your hard work, Vicente. And.. can you go to TG? Tell him I will give it to them.”

    "Ma'am, are you out yet?" Lorelay nodded to Arman, one of the waiters at the club where she worked. When he got down to the ground floor, he saw Mr. Shein with another woman. It is sitting while holding someone."Just every Saturday," Lorelay said weakly and tried to get the pain out of her system.Lorelay continued to leave, ignoring the eyes that followed her out.He immediately hailed a taxi, and drove to Zee's house. When he got there, he found only helpers. Zeebal did not rebel. 'Is he still mad?' Lorelay asked absently as she attended to the assistants in preparing their suitcases."Sister, please wake up the children." Now they are leaving, back to their old house but the kids don't want to leave their daddy Zee's house.Everyone looked at Sico who frowned as he looked at the suitcases scattered in the living room."Sico, you understood mom, didn't you?""Mama, I don't want to leave. I'm only with daddy Zee." Sico cried to Lorelay. When Lorelay looked at Rico, she saw the same

    "WHERE ARE YOU?" Zee asked Lorelay as she saw her sneak away after putting the twins to bed in the bedroom."Don't make a noise Zeebal. I'm leaving. Just going to buy something." Lorelay was disgusted with the man who couldn't stop smiling while facing her.'She's scary yet sexy,' Zee said softly in her mind as she looked at Lorelay who was about to board a taxi.It's like Timang leaning against the door and looking at the taxi leaving. He spent a minute there before deciding to enter.Zee let out a deep breath and lay down on the sofa. Just then he realized something that made him wake up suddenly. "That brat! Don't tell me I'll be the one left behind by his children?" Annoyed, he chased Lorelay outside but it was too late because the girl's taxi was already leaving.He angrily kicked the rock only to be hurt. Dejected, he entered the house again and threw himself on the sofa."I'm so freaking tired." Zee softly whispered in the air while looking at the photo hanging on the wall of h

    The music inside is loud, the lights are changing. Lorelay was inside the office, not even reviewing what she had to pass on to her boss this month when a staff suddenly ran to her and called her."Ma'am Lorelay, someone is fighting downstairs." Lorelay felt dizzy and was forced to stand up to go downstairs. It's a headache that he always settles other people's fights. 'Where are the guards?' he's only been starting here for three months but he seems like he wants to give up.When he arrived at the ground floor, the two men involved were already separated. In this bar, it is not their business to sell bodies to their Entertainers. If they want to serve their clients, the bar is out there.All extra service is a decision of the staffs and if many clients force them and they don't want it, they won't think twice about kicking the client out of their bar so Lorelay is satisfied with her job."Ma'am, I think you are stressed." The bartender laughed as Lorelay leaned against the island cou

    "YOU ARE COMING?!" Zee couldn't hide the smile on her lips when Lorelay told her that they would come back to Luzon with her. Her parents are sending Zeebal back to them because of personal matters that Zee is trying to escape from.“Yes. I'm preparing our plane ticket bill. Actually, I thought that we would go next because we would just go by ship to save money." Lorelay said that they are having a hard time budgeting the rest of their money."I'll take care of your plane tickets," Zee presented to Lorelay, which Lorelay immediately frowned at. “Stop Zeebal!” He said this to his friend. Zee's lips tilted because he knew that the girl was ashamed of him."You're a family to me. You children and auntie Lorena. I consider you family." Zee tells Lorelay that she was ignored.'You have helped me and Zee a lot. It's embarrassing,' said Lorelay in her mind."I know you will insist that we go together, so go ahead, I'll buy plane tickets later."Zee's smile widened when the woman said that.

    "Brother, is this where they say is a famous restaurant? Why is there no store?” Dave frowned when he asked Lee because he was still hungry and Lorena's restaurant is the most famous restaurant in Valencia that the two of them even thought about."Yeah. They say it's here but it looks like it's closed," the two were about to leave when they heard someone inside so Lee and Dave looked at each other and decided to go ahead. They found a child inside who was jumping up and down with a cookie and a chocolate bar in his hand.Zee was stunned to see the people who entered. Lyrico also ran to Zee and hid behind her. The two men looked at each other when they saw the boy. 'Sister?' Dave said in his mind while looking at Rico who was peeking from behind Zeebal.'Lorelay,' Lee said in his mind as he met the boy's blue eyes. "Yes? What do you need?” the two immediately lost sight of the boy and looked at Zee."Is Lorena's Restaurant here? We would have eaten here." Lee said."Oh yes, right here.

    -5 years after-"Mommy!" I'm almost at a loss for what to do, especially since I don't know what to do first. First, I still have to work because my aunt and I have sold our place here because of her hospitalization. We are still in debt.My auntie is diabetic so she has maintenance insulin since the last few months. But before that we went back to the hospital.The twins are already studying and we have almost no money left to meet our daily needs. There were more bills for water, electricity and the remaining savings of auntie and I barely fit for the next month."Mama, it's fine. I'll be the one to help Musico with his assignments." I smiled at Lyrico."Why? Is that difficult?" I asked the two. My naughty daughter Sico short for Musico smiled at me and Lyrico shook her head."No mom. Just pay attention to Sico." When I looked at Sico, he stood up laughing and ran to me. "I love you, mom. I'm sorry." He said and returned to the twins who were frowning at him.Between Sico and Rico,

    "Lorelay, child!!" auntie called me. We were in his carenderya and I was in the kitchen because I was washing a lot of dishes and I left the twins outside.I was in a hurry to get out, and I was like a statue where I stood when I saw the unexpected visitor.Shiela holds Musico and Jax holds Lyrico. I gasped and tears welled up in my eyes when I saw them smiling happily at me."Well!!!" Shiela's voice echoed and handed Musico to Kay auntie before running to me and hugging me."I miss you beees!!" I was crying while returning his hug because when I left, we didn't talk before.I just told him to leave me alone and respect my decision. I just told him the place I was going, and I thank him for not telling Mr. Shein where I am."Oh! Continue that at your house. Let's put it away so we can go home," said auntie. First I introduced Shiela and Jax Jay auntie Lorena and this to them as well.Jax helped me wash up because Shiela was watching over the two toddlers who giggled every time Shiela

    "El, look at your son!!" Zeebal stressed to me while looking at my son Musico who was crawling on the floor because he wanted to come near me."It's Lorelay and not El," I said laughing as I sat down and greeted my daughter who was giggling as she approached me with open arms."It's the same! Lorelay starts with letter L that makes you as El (L)." I didn't respond to Zee's logic because I'm the only one who will be poured into it."Son, you are defiled." I said when I saw Musico's dress that looked brown even though it was white."Your babies are weird," Zee said grimacing but smiling when Lyrico crawled up to her and held her leg as if she was loading her.They crawl at their 7 months. That's when the babies really started to crawl, but I agree with what Zee said. My babies are not weird, they are just talented."Don't you have anything to give birth to now that you're here?" I asked him while mixing Musico's milk."Just finished. I'm sick of looking at other people's fo-keh. I hope

Lyrico Shein and Muico Shein."Musico likes me," Zee said happily because he was sleeping soundly with her while Lyrico was not. When Zee picks him up, he will suddenly cry so he puts it down immediately or gives it to Auntie."How are you feeling beautiful mommy?" I laughed at what Mia said. He is also a volunteer from St. Heaven Hospital together with Zee. They were only supposed to be in Harver for six months but they submitted an application to move here in the province.The owners of Heaven and Harver are brothers and as far as I know, Zee's brothers are the owners of these two hospitals, so it's no wonder that they and Mia got through easily."I feel fine, Doc."
