The Love That Passed 60- Forever painful
Jared's POV I had been too emotional, and I was thinking that I had made Colleen worried because of that. As much as possible, I didn't want to give her any more trouble, and showing her that side of me worries me. I was glad that she was strong and understood what I had been going through. The days and weeks passed, and I started to settle everything in the office. Colleen was now in her fifth month of pregnancy, and I wanted to stay by her side all the time. "Sir, we can start the interview for the secretary position," Rodney said as he peered into my office after he knocked. I gave him a nod, and I was sure that he understood what I meant, so I got up from my chair and followed him to the interview and testing room. As I got in, I found 5 applicants, consisting of 3 males and 2 females. I would want to choose all males, but I don't want to discriminate, so I will just do the interview and grade them accordingly. They will be working with Rodney, so I guess I need to ask his opin
The Love That Passed 61- Sweet time
Colleen's POV "Colleen, dear, why are you still here?" Mom asked when he went to our bedroom and found me sitting on a chair by the poolside. The sun was almost down and a cold breeze of wind brought chills to my body when I never wore a sweatshirt over my clothes. "I want to wait for Jared here. Lately, he had been going home a little later than normal and I was worried that he was facing some problems in the company." I replied and I saw him sigh. "Don't overthink about everything. I'm sure that if he has some problems at the company, he will be able to handle them just fine," she replied. "How can you tell?" "I never saw your husband's face being too stressed whenever he comes home. If ever, he may have thought more of you and nothing else," she replied. "Is he having a hard time because of me?" I asked worriedly, "Of course not! You know that it's not the case. Yes, I am not going to sweet talk you. As your mother, it was painful knowing your condition and I know that
The Love That Passed 62- I will be very happy
Jared's POV I carried Colleen as she was already asleep. I sighed when I noticed that she was so light even though she was 5 months pregnant. I put her down on our bed and, just like the other nights, I stared at her beautiful but tired face. She was having a hard time, I know that for a fact. Who wouldn't? Anyone who was in her shoes would feel that way aside from the hurt and pain she was probably trying to fight. While I was struggling to fight the loneliness that I was feeling because of her inevitable passing, she was fighting her sorrow as well, thinking she was going to leave the family she had started to have. I touched her face and I couldn't help but smile when I saw her smile too. She's like a baby that has been played by her angel in her sleep. Even if there were dark circles around her eyes, it was still sparkling whenever she looked at me. The colors on her face that I thought were starting to get back have started to fade again. I touched her on her arm, which
The Love That Passed 63- I want to live more
Colleen's POV "How are you?" Dr. Chin asked me again, I don't know if I am going to tell her how I feel about Jared with me. I didn't want him to worry but I was worried about my baby as well. "I want to say that I am fine," I said and they both looked at me, concerned. "Lately, I have been feeling sad. It was the first time that I felt sorry for myself. Will it affect our baby?" I added as Jared held my hand. He looked at me and I could feel that he was feeling sorry for me too. I didn't want to see his emotions anymore so I looked away first to look at my doctor whom I was sure was sorry for me too. "It was natural for you to feel that way," she said. I guess she knew how to comfort her patients. "Anyone in your shoes will feel like that, even Jared. But you have to be strong because your baby is observing your emotions as well. You have to feel happy so the baby will be able to relax." "My wife," Jared called me so I looked at him, "If you wanted to cry, just tell me. I am going
The Love That Passed 64- Can you make her stay?
Jared's POV Colleen was very happy when we found out that we would be having a baby girl. She prayed for it and just like what she had told me, God did answer her prayer. Why can't she just pray for her recovery instead? I am not really into the baby's gender. As long as they are both safe, everything is fine with me. I mean more than fine and I will be forever grateful. As the days went on, I started to feel scared. Not for myself but for her. I could see that she was having difficulty with her condition. If only I could carry her burden, I would gladly do it. But I think God is unfair, He made someone like Colleen suffer like this. Or He is greedy, that He wanted her for himself to be the kindest person. I didn't want to blame Him for everything that's happening now. I know for a fact that I too, have a fault. I deprived her of the chance to extend her life. But I am not God, but He is. He could do anything he wanted with just a snap of his fingers. He could make my Colleen bette
The Love That Passed 65- Could have been our first
Colleen's POV I wanted to cry that very moment when he was telling me about what had happened two years ago. He was facing a problem then and I didn't do anything to help him. I got mad at him without knowing that he was in a tight situation as well. I could feel his sincerity when he said he was sorry and what he said before I was out in my sleep. He wanted me to stay longer. He wanted me to be with him and our baby. I tried not to cry, I didn't want him to know that I was still awake and had heard everything. Although it was his confession, I still didn't want him to feel a burden. It must be his way of lessening the weight on his shoulders. It was three days ago, and every time I look at him, I can't help but feel sorry for both of us. But, I didn't want to think that way anymore. Starting that night and the following nights, he had been telling me about him and what he had been doing after we got married. It made me feel that he was filling me up with information about him that

Jared’s POV “Hi, Colleen!!!” Ingrid greeted my wife happily and of course, she greeted her back with the same enthusiasm. “Ingrid,” she said and accepted the kiss my sister was giving her. I invited Mom and Ingrid over. It was Saturday and I decided to make every Saturday of Colleen’s life filled with memories of the people she loved. “Hi, son.” Mom greeted me. I don’t know, but every time we see each other, I always see sadness in her eyes. Maybe because of our situation, so I think I have to talk to her about that. I didn’t want her to worry about us, either. “Hello, mom. Thank you for coming over.” I said as I gave her a sincere smile, and then she went to sit with Colleen. I followed her after I finished setting up the grill. “Wow, big brother Jared, this is so fun,” Marcus exclaimed as soon as he arrived, as he helped Diane push Uncle Rick’s wheelchair. Mommy Lucy was in the kitchen with Betty getting the other food. “Did you like it?” Ingrid asked with a broad smile. “Yes
The Love That Passed 67- Everlasting love
Colleen’s POV Weekends have never been happy until the last few weekends that I and the rest of my family shared. Every Saturday, Jared made sure to have everybody gathered in our house and that extended my life every time. Well, that’s how I feel even if I know my body. Nevertheless, I am happy about it. “Hi, wife..” Jared said as he sat beside me, I’m in the 6th month of my pregnancy and I just had my check-up. The baby was very fine and although she was a little underweight, she was still healthy. Dr. Chin said that it was pretty normal considering my condition. I know Jared is excited but scared. He knew that in the 7th month, I was going to undergo the CS and we didn’t know what would happen after. I was just trying to be courageous and strong for our baby and him, along with the people I love. “Hi, husband,” I replied, “Tell me what you want to eat,” he said. We went home after the check-up because I wanted to stay at home with him. I like how our daily routine goes and I d

Jared's POV "She's still not in good condition. I didn't want to give you false hope and I want you to be ready for anything, anytime." Dr. Gerard said," I was shocked when I saw Colleen looking at me. She wasn't sad or mad or angry. Even if she couldn't smile because of the tube that was in her mouth, I could still see that she was because of her eyes. She must have been listening to me and baby Corrine, that's why. "But, she's already awake, can't we do the surgery already?" I asked. "She's already weak and her body will not be able to make it." Dr. Gerard answered, "She wakes up, yes. But it doesn't necessarily mean that she's fine. The surgery will take a toll on her body and it may shorten her life. There's a possibility that she may, you know, be on the operating table," he added. I felt so helpless and looked at Colleen who was now sleeping. When I saw her eyes open, I called Dr. Gerard immediately and, thankfully, Mommy Lucy came back so I handed her over, our daughter. She
The Love That Passed 78- Look like mommy
Jared's POV I know my wife's condition but my mind and heart didn't want to accept it. I still give myself hope and no matter how little it was, I will still hold on to it. I am never going to give up on my wife and let the best thing happen to me slip out of my hands. Yes, she's the best thing that ever happened to me. And every day that I see her lying on her hospital bed is killing me. All this time, she was all in my mind and I felt guilty when I saw our daughter. I have neglected her without knowing it and the pain that engulfed me after realizing that was unbearable. When she held my thumb, I felt something. That must be what Colleen felt when she found out that she was pregnant. That's why she didn't agree to an abortion. "My wife, are you not yet tired of sleeping for so long?" I asked her as I wiped her clean. Mommy Lucy wanted to do this for her but I didn't let her. I want to take care of my wife so she will love me even more when she finds out after she wakes up that I
The Love That Passed 77- See and feel
Third Person's POV Jared was looking at his wife, who was still lying on the hospital bed unconscious. He had been doing that for three weeks after he woke up and more than a month since Colleen was in a coma. Every day his heart breaks as he sees him almost lifeless. He misses her smile, her voice, and her love. He tried to be stronger than the other day and give himself hope that she would wake up soon. After he woke up that day and had calmed himself, Ingrid told him about what had happened after he got shot. *** Flashback *** "Gen. Anderson's man called the ambulance and brought you here." Ingrid said, "You were out and getting colder and I thought we were going to lose you. It was a good thing that the bullet missed your heart." she added, "I bumped into a man before I got shot, maybe that's the reason," he said. "Yeah, the man was so frantic. He was shocked that he thought he had been shot as well." Ingrid replied, "As I brought you to the hospital, the man who was supposed

Third Person's POV "Colleeeeeenn..." Jared shouted, which made Ingrid and Claire rush to him, crying. "Jared... huhuhu...." Claire said, "You're finally awake," she added. He looked at them and said, "Colleen? Where's my wife?" he asked in a hurry and started to roam his eyes around and landed on the bed next to him. His eyes watered when he saw Colleen with a tube in her mouth. He tried to get up but Ingrid and Claire tried to stop him but he didn't. Instead, he went to Colleen's bed and looked at her, "What happened? Why is she like this?" he asked and his tears started to run down his face. "My wife," he called her in a hoarse voice. "My wife, I am here, come on, wake up now," he added. Ingrid couldn't help it anymore so she decided to call her doctor instead. She didn't want to see Jared in that state and she knew that he would be broke when he found out about his wife's condition. He tried to wake up Colleen repeatedly but she didn't make a move. Lucy and Betty came in and w
The Love That Passed 75- Don't blame yourself
Jared's POV I'm so thankful that Colleen has been admitted to the hospital. In that way, I can act more relaxed so that I don't have to think that she might suspect the reason why I leave every day. I know these past few days she's been thinking about something and I don't want her to do that. I often find her deep in thought, which is why I can't help but worry about her. I need to leave the house every day regularly to let Derrick know that I am often away from home and go to the office so that his attention will be diverted to me in case he thinks of retaliating against me through Colleen. I don't want her to be hurt anymore because our time together was limited and I might not be able to stop myself from killing Derrick if he ever decided to hurt my wife and daughter. Stacey informed me about Derrick's plan. So even though I was angry at her, I set that aside because of the information she was giving me. But it doesn't mean that I have already forgiven her for what she did to my
The Love That Passed 74- Before "D" day
Colleens POV I had to stay in the hospital since my scheduled CS is a week from now. The first time Jared told me about it, I was relieved. I knew my body well and I was already having difficulties. As much as possible, I didn't want to stay in the hospital. But, I am not going to risk my baby's health with my fear. Sometimes Jared left the house telling me that he would just check in the office or just buy something. Although I believe him, there's still doubt in me that he was doing something he didn't want to let me know. And that worries me. What if he was doing something dangerous? I don't think I will be able to take it if something happens to him. He and our baby are my source of strength now and knowing he was hurt will hurt me the most. Like now, he said Ingrid had asked him to check on the financial report from last month, so he left early that morning. It was almost noon and he had not called me yet. I wanted to do it but thinking he was busy, I was afraid that I might d
The Love That Passed 73- Be happy together
Jared's POV Colleen is getting weaker as the days go by, her pregnancy is taking a toll on her body and I am sure that she is having difficulty carrying our baby. Sometimes I wanted to yell or shout at her for being so stubborn and chose to have our baby in her condition. I love our baby so much. Even if she was not yet in this world, she already had a space in my heart. But she's hurting Colleen without her knowing and I can't do anything about it. Sometimes I regret the fact that I made love to her. If that never happened, she should have undergone her surgery already and would probably be recuperating by now. There's no point regretting it now, yes. But I couldn't help it when I saw her looking like how she was. I love her so much that I always think about how I am going to survive life without her. I started to feel scared, thinking she might not make it through her operation. It's normal for me to feel this way, right? But all I can do is keep it to myself so she won't worry
The Love That Passed 72- Love again
Colleen's POV I didn't notice that I had overslept and I looked for Jared the moment I woke up. I asked Mom where he was and he told me that he was still in his study room, so I went up. I didn't come up here because the stairs were high, but because I wanted to see my husband, I would do it. I knocked before I got in and found him in deep thought. I can tell because of the way he sighed, does he have a problem? I made him notice me and he looked at me. He smiled and, oh, he was so handsome. I don't think I am worthy of him if I am going to look at myself. I am so thin and pregnant, I'm sure you can't imagine how I look too. I asked him whether we had a problem while I got closer to him. He said it was just about his sister agreeing to manage the company even after I gave birth. He made sure that it was nothing after I asked her again and he had me sit on his lap. I love to be sitting on him, but the way I weigh now, makes me feel conscious. He hugged me and, of course, I did the sa
The Love That Passed 71- Greedy
Jared's POV After I talked to Mom, I went home and found Colleen still sleeping. I was thankful because she wouldn't be asking me about the reason for my visit to Mom and I didn't have to lie to her. As much as possible, I want to say everything to her and I feel guilty when I am hiding something from her just like now. It was for her own good. Still, I am not comfortable. That's why I let everyone at home know so they could help me protect her. I went back to my study room and started to polish my plan. I knew that this was going to be very dangerous but it was the only thing I knew to trap Derrick. I didn't want anything to happen to anyone in my family, especially Colleen. And Derrick threatening me is making me feel paranoid all the time. I was already like that because of Colleen's condition. Her illness is like a ticking time bomb that could take her any time. Every day, I pray to God to give us more time to be together. Not for me but for the goodness of Colleen's heart, she
