Chapter 56: Rocks doesn't want you to forgive
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56"Good morning Ate! Did you sleep well?" Fierra's wide smile welcomed me the moment she stepped behind Uno. She is still sporting her pigtails, but now, she is wearing a navy blue flowy dress ending above her knees, brown flat strappy sandals, and red ribbons whirled around her black, naturally curled hair.
My lips parted as I stood a step back and glance at Uno. He is holding Fierra's small hand, with the same wide grin plastered in his face.
"What are you doing here, Fierra? Where is your Mom?" I asked and shifted my gaze to her.
"Kuya Uno promised me that I will have bonding with you!" The cheerful voice and the claps of the little girl sounded like a sudden stressor. It made me want to just cut off my ears just so I wouldn't be able to hear it or to just vanish in front of them.
I bit the insides of my cheeks and darted my gaze at Uno. He has this triumphant, proud smirk in his lips that made me want to just peel it off or punch him until I can no long

Uno reached for the doorknob of our room in this rest house. The sky is already dark, and the cold night breeze is making our white curtains dance in the air. He carefully opened the door and moved his position sidewards, his left arm placed in Fierra's shoulders, and his right arm behind her knees.I sighed and followed them inside the room. He gently puts Fierra in the middle of the bed and removed her shoes. He reached for a small bag on top of our bedside table and get some clothes for Fierra, while I busied myself on getting myself a pair of maroon pajamas before going inside the bathroom to take a cold shower.And then I remembered Fierra's eyes. Earlier, even when I can hear her tummy making noises, a sign that she is already hungry, she didn't complain. Uno is already telling her that we need to eat but she insists that she needs to complete all night rocks for her wish to come true. That is to make me like her and to forgive my mother.She tried and tried, even when her rocks
The Million Dollar Marriage Deal Chapter 58: Not in Papers
I woke up when I heard a loud thud made by someone behind a door. I hastily pulled myself up to glance at the person behind the noise when I saw Fierra's built with a wide smile plastered in her face.Her hair is down at her shoulders, and a pink flower clip is pinned on her hair. She is wearing a pink spaghetti strap flowy dress and pink block heeled shoes."Good morning Ate Farrah!" She yelled, repeating what she said Yesterday when she went here, only with a lower energy and smaller smile.Someone walks towards the door and revealed Uno. He is holding a big tray in his hands with foods on top of it."Breakfast in bed!" Uno smiled widely after he put the tray on the bed. He is still wearing the same black sweatpants and white shirt from last night, he didn't take a bath and cooked first?Despite being surprised by these two, I still don't know what to react. This is a small thing, I know. But something inside me feels so happy. Not until I saw Fi
The Million Dollar Marriage Deal Chapter 59: Angry
Uno's words will really make you think whether it is true or not. Days before our marriage, he acts like a brute and treats me arrogantly but now, he is pursuing me and convince me to make the marriage real and try if we can fall in love with each other again. His deep-set of eyes and his flowery words were stuck on my head as I sat on the yellowish sand, my feet touching the waters a bit when they go up.I hugged my knees and put my chin on top of it. I know I am starting to like Uno, but this marriage is making me anxious. Is he worth to love again? Not that I completely lost it, I know my love is probably hiding somewhere inside my heart and my mind only commands me not to show it. Maybe because I am still afraid to show affection towards others. The betrayal that I witnessed made a great impact for me not to show the love that I have towards the people I cherished the most.I still cannot admit to myself that I want to hold them for I know when that time comes, whe

I know what I did was wrong, alright. Pretending that your life is at stake and that you are drowning will never be a good joke so I understand why Uno is furious right now, but I just want him to come with me and he wouldn't do it just because I insisted to wear my bikini.I picked the blanket and wear my romper even when my body is still wet before strutting the way to our rented car. I sighed as I harshly opened it and jump on the passenger seat, throw the blanket at the back seat, and glance at Uno's scornful face."Hey, I'm sorry...I know I was wrong and–" my words were cut off when he started the engine and drove fast, making me hold at the side of the window.What the hell I didn't even put my seat exalts on! That's too harsh!"Uno! Slow down!" I uttered in an annoyed voice but he didn't listen and continued with his speed, but when we reached Basco, he slowed down.All the time that we spent inside that car feels eerie. Uno's hands we

I felt his hands touched my legs from up to down and then wrapped it around his waist before he stood up. His lips are still on mine, sucking my lips and giving it a bite to open it. I groaned.My hands wrapped around his nape, pulling him closer as I felt him took some steps towards our room. He moved his lips away a bit and touched my cheeks using the tip of his nose as his other hand left my back to open the door. He kicked it to open it widely and put me down the bed. He parted my legs and put his in between me, his left hand at the side of my waist and the other, at the side of my head, completely locking me until I wouldn't be able to move nor escape.His dark, menacing eyes were now staring darkly at me. It has a hint of desire, excitement, and amusement. My heart hammered fast against my chest, the anticipation for everything that will happen tonight is making my heart beat wildly that it was already painful, but bearable enough to continue."You are rea

The next days were spent in traveling inside Batanes. Have a food trip in different restaurants that serves usually seafoods and argue which cooks more delicious. We also went to different beaches, take pictures, went to souvenir shops, and bought matching chains and shirts. I also bought one for Dylan and Vanessa.The only thing that I will never forget is when we went to this old Mt. Carmel Chapel. It was a small church built on top of the hill, it was made out of stones, the same as some old houses here in Batanes. Different shades of green leafy plants are hanging on its wooden gates, making it more pleasing and attractive to the eyes of the tourists. Outside it was the crashing mighty waves from the Pacific Ocean and South China Sea, the same salty breeze covering the whole place. When you enter the church, the usual long wooden chairs from. Catholic churches will welcome you. Some old sculptures of Saints are placed inside it as a design, brown lights are giving the sta

"You really are going to work today? Sure?"My voice sounded like I am bargaining. About three hours ago, we arrived in Manila. It was already two in the afternoon and Uno is busy fixing his sleeves."Yes, I need to go to work right now. I will come home early and cook your dinner, or I will just buy. What do you want?" He glanced at me and sat beside me. My shoulders were shrunk, and my lips protruding."Can't we stay here and just work tomorrow? I mean we just get off from a plane ride and it's tiring?"Earlier, when I got out of the bathroom, I heard him talking to someone on the phone and when he saw me, he ended it and immediately went inside the bathroom and his clothes were already placed on the bed. And now, I am asking him to just sleep with me and not go to work.I sighed."And you tell me that we can still stay in Batanes, huh?" I stood up and held his arms to fix his sleeve.He glanced at me and licked his lips."Sorry, I just need to do it right now. I want to go home the
The Million Dollar Marriage Deal Chapter 64: Greedy For Your Love
"This is the girl you married, Uno? A greedy heiress with a struggling company?"Uno's grandmother plastered a smirk on her lips as she fanned herself with a big, red fabric fan."I thought you and Hazel would end up together, it's just disappointing that you decided to marry for... I am not sure if it's a hopeless love or purely business?"I was left with no words, I can't even dart my eyes at Uno to ask for some protection because it will look like I am asking for his pity. I just don't know why I am so hurt right now, she just spits out some words and she was able to make my heart squeeze and made my thoughts shower inside my mind."Lola..." Uno stood behind me and touched my waist. "Let's not talk about this, please...""What? I am just telling you that Hazel is a better choice. You are still young, I don't even get why you married already." She arched her brow and walk towards the door of their dining room–or that was what I could rememb

But it was fine...because I love her.""I even brought her to Batanes just so I can focus and letting her know how much I love her. We have been in a couple of fights, may it be big or small...we fought. I honestly thought that we won't make it, but I just love her dearly and I don't want to lose her so I am still here in front of her."Shock was evident on her face as she glanced at me when I slowly went down on my knees."Uno...what are you doing?" She whispered. I smiled at her and reached for the velvet box on my pocket, and opened it."I can never lose my Farrah Saldivar again and I don't trust our first wedding...so I am asking her again.""Farrah, will you marry me, for real and for love?" I asked.Tears cascaded down her eyes when she saw the wedding ring. It was a simple white gold ring with a diamond on its top. Her initials are carved i

"I told myself I will take this slow but this girl is impatient." I murmured when she asked about what I am doing. I have been purposely following her around, sometimes she doesn't notice it, but she did when I came inside the new coffee shop near their place."Uno, what are you really up to? I know how it hurts to see me. I know how hard it is to have lunch with me or even share a table while sipping coffee, so why are you doing this? I thought you don't want to see me because you are being reminded of our child? I am doing everything to give you time, but why are you making me confuse? Why are you giving me hope?""I am here because I still couldn't admit to myself that I no longer love you. Even after what you did, and even after everything that we have been through, I realized that the most important thing is that you are alive. I care about our daughter, but

What I am longing for right now is for us to have a child. Though Farrah is still 28 and I just turned 30, I am ready. I just don' know if Farrah wants the same, but I hope it is.I have been begging her a lot of times in Batanes to make a baby, though I made sure that I did everything I need to do, it is still up to Farrah since I am not sure if she's taking shots or pills."My husband smells so nice, but the food smells better. I wonder if he can still add some chili on it?" I heard her voice coming from behind. She wrapped her arms around my waist and glanced at the pan in front of me. I moved his body to the side and kissed the tip of her nose before glancing back to tha pan and stir it.

Since that day, I forced myself to be more understanding. I don't remember myself as someone who gets jealous easily and I don't give harsh kisses to Farrah. That was not the love that I know, and I will never let myself continue doing that shit for years.I worked so hard from day and night to finish all my works ahead of time, I want to to make it up to her. I know I was never a good husband for weeks and that she doesn't like me. But I can still try. I waited for seven long years and I got no plans on losing my chance again. She was already tied to me, a wrong thing that I did. I took advantage of her problems and forced her to marry me just because I am greedy for her love, but it doesn't mean that it would forever be like that.I am determined to make her fall in love with me, that's why I made everything to make my schedule clear.

"Dude, stop staring at her you look like a damn stalker," Auton whispered on my ear before drinking on his glass.Today is an engagement party for Aliya's Mom and Farrah's dad. Almost all their business partners are present, including the Saldivar group. Ever since I have been appointed as the new CEO of our empire, I invested in their company. I know we had a deal that we shouldn't care about each other's lives, but I just can't help it. I need to have a glimpse of her. I've been gone for years, I asked my grandfather to train me overseas just so I could avoid myself from running back to her but the moment I stepped outside the plane, I know I will never be able to do it.At first, I thought living in the same country would be easy, but I'm wrong. We have the same circle of business partners, and I heard, she is helping on managing their company.

She knows I love her that much that's why she is not worried g about being left behind nor think of what I would feel.That was what I realized after spending time inside my room without having to answer her calls and texts. It may look and sound like a gay, but I really hate how she can make me cry.When I came to school and talked with the juniors, she suddenly showed herself and looks like she will talk to me so I marched as fast as I could–not wanting to talk to her. I can still remember her words. It was etched on my mind, and I will not be able to talk to her unless all those thoughts already left my mind.I was walking fast when I heard her groan, I was in the middle of thinking whether I will go back to help her or not but just decided to resist her.I heard her calling my name repeatedly. I tried so hard not to turn my back, but I ended up walking back to her to check if she's fine.A fucking in love idiot who can't even withstand he
The Million Dollar Marriage Deal Chapter 82: Will Always Let You
"Are you really that damn in love with her that you will let your pride be stepped on, Uno?"Auton, my old friend from my previous school visited me after that day. I didn't mean to tell her this story, but he asked me what's going on with Farrah and me.And yes, he knows how much I adored that girl. And he somehow hates her, telling me that Farrah will only bring me pain and nothing more."You don't understand because you aren't in love yet, but you will know once you do." I defended."No, if I will fall in love I will make sure that she knows my worth. Not like that. I will never let someone hurt me just because I love her." He shook his head.I just ignored his remarks, pretending that I am deaf. Because no one can ever make me change my mind. I got hurt, I forbid myself on texting her for days and not show up myself. I just hope that she will miss me and text me. When that happens, I will come running again even when she isn't rushing at all. T

Farrah.That was her name.With her black hair, brownish-red lipsticks, artificial curls, and narrow nose, she got me. I know from that day that I like her. This was the first time that I felt this kind of attraction.I normally have crushes on celebrities and artists, some from my past school but with Farrah, it was different. I spent some months just watching her and occasionally approached her. May it be for a small pageant she won, a contest whom she said she doesn't like but is competitive enough to win and her birthday. I will sometimes greet her every time we will see each other, but I just found that a bit weird so I stopped myself from doing it and just smile when our eyes will meet.Until I no longer like how boys hold him. She was a boy magnet! Every boy from the hallway would always turn their heads the moment she walks in the middle like a ramp model! It was making me angry, so I tried to be close to her and asked her if I can court her.

Uno Saldivar's PoVEver since I laid my eyes on her, I knew she would be a big thing in my life. She always thought that I am weird because I stayed for too long even when she keeps on pushing me away.It was one hectic morning, I just got home from our out of the country vacation and I forgot that I need to transfer to a new school. I still have this jetlag, my head is aching that I couldn't focus on the things I need to do before this day ends, and it starts with enrolling. It was just a week before the academic year starts, and I am already hurrying because I am not sure if the University that I want is still accepting late enrollees. I don't want to use the power of my family, but if they wouldn't accept me, then I will have to ask a favor to my grandmother and let her talk to the head just so I could go to this school.My black, thick-rimmed glasses are falling. My big shirt felt so thick against my skin that sweat started to fall down my face. The line is
