The Playboy's Downfall He Loves Her
“IT’S A GIRL!” The doctor asserted, making Isla cry. Her mom smiled at her and held her hand while she was lying on the bed. It was the day when they could find out about her baby’s gender, and nothing could change the happiness that she was feeling at the moment. Not until the door opened and shock filled her system when he saw her brother and behind him was Zero.Isla’s eyes grew bigger, and her tears continued flowing down her cheeks. Her grasp on her mom’s hand tightened. When she met Apollo’s gaze, his apology was visible.Apollo approaches the bed. “I… I am sorry—”“W-Why—”“I already knew it all along. And it was I—”“I am not talking to you,” Isla cut off Zero.Zero pressed his lips as he stared at Isla.The doctor wiped the lubricant jelly in her tummy and pulled down her dress. Isla got up and removed the blanket that covered her lower part.“E-Apollo, what is he doing here?” Her voice raised as fear and anger were visible in it. It’s her sixth month of pregnancy—her second

AFTER DINNER, Isla climbed upstairs and went to her room to take a cold shower. While Zero stays in the living room, talking with Apollo.“You should talk to her, dude. And explain everything—”“I don’t want her to know that I’m a bad guy.”“You are a bad guy, Zero,” Apollo uttered and let out a soft chuckle as he laid his back on the couch. “Dude, my sister would understand that. And don’t you worry about her attitude at this moment since she was surprised by your presence,” he added.Zero grabbed the throw pillow and grasped it. “I don’t know; it seems like she doesn’t want to see me,” he replied.Apollo shook his head. “She’s happy to see you. Trust me,” he said and smiled. He hugged the throw pillow and smiled.“Did I scare her when I told her that I love her? You know that I’m not good at showing my feelings—”“Dude, I’m sure she’s being thrilled into the bones. She’s been waiting for that,” Apollo answered.Zero heaved a deep sigh. “I could really feel her coldness towards me—”

THE FOLLOWING DAY, the sun shone past through the window and was flashing bright towards the happy couples sleeping into the soft cottony sheets.Zero opened his eyes and smiled as he stared at Isla, who was peacefully sleeping in his arm. He lifted his hand and pushed back the strands of her hair. He runs his fingertips into her cheeks. Isla gained weight because of their child, and nothing changed. She’s still beautiful since the day they met.She heard her groan and slowly opened her eyes. “Good morning, sunshine,” Zero uttered with a smile creeping into his face.Isla thought what had happened yesterday was just a dream, but it turns out that it was real. She smiled at him. “Morning,” she mumbled and closed her eyes again.Zero frowned slightly. “Are you going to sleep again, baby?” he asked.Hearing Zero’s soft and calm voice made her feel thrilled and lucky. And damn, it still feels like she’s just dreaming.However, she knew that it was not.She opened her eyes again and met hi

ZERO can’t help but smile while driving toward the market. Ever since he came back, it’s the first time that Isla called him with that endearment.So, this is the feeling when you’re in love?The feeling that he felt when he first fell in love with a girl is different from this one. There’s something that he couldn’t explain when he’s with Isla, but he can simply put it this way… Isla is like his home—he finds a home with Isla.He will do his best to protect his family. His mom was right all along. Apollo and Becca were right from the beginning. If you love, you must take risks. Whatever it is and whatever it costs.Zero picked the green mangoes and didn’t last long at the market. Then she went to the nearby mall to buy mayonnaise and ketchup since he was not sure if they have those in Isla’s house.He asked Isla one time if she wanted to stay with him at his penthouse, but the woman refused. So, no matter how tiring it was, he always visited Isla every day after work at his company.

“HERE,” Zero uttered when he put down the plate on the table.Isla arched her brow. “Why did you mix the mayonnaise and ketchup?” she asked.Zero sighed. “It was your mom who did it, baby. Not—”“What? Didn’t I tell you that you have to—”“Come on, baby….” Zero went closer to her and sat beside her, “—please… don’t make it too—”“So, you’re giving up?” Isla cut off the hum of his words.Zero shook his head. “It’s not like that—”“Then what?”He sighed once again and was about to reach for her hand when she moved away from him.Zero let out a soft chuckle. “Don’t be childish, baby—”“You called me childish?” Isla’s eyes widened, and she stood up.He doesn’t know how to react. And he just cursed inside his head. He totally forgot that some pregnant women are sensitive.“Baby… I’m so—”“Follow me to the room,” Isla asserted and started to walk her way toward the second floor of their house.Zero frowned slightly as he followed. He was about to step his foot on the staircase when he saw t

ISLA was combing her hair in front of her vanity mirror when she heard a knock on the door.She put down her comb and walked towards the door. She gasped in surprise when she saw Zero.“Hi,” he greeted and gave a peck on her lips, making her eyes widen.“I thought—”“Surprise,” he let out and smiled at her.She frowned and bit her lower lip.Then suddenly, Zero brings out the flowers that he hides on his back. “For the lovely mother-to-be of my kids and my future wife,” he asserted.Isla doesn’t know what to feel at this moment. Zero never failed to surprise her.Before a tear could fall from her eyes, she smiled to push it back and reached for the bouquet of tulips—her favorite.“Thank you,” she said and tiptoed, brushing her lips into his.Zero smiled and offered his arm. “Shall we?”Isla hit him in the shoulder slightly before snaking her arm into it. They then went downstairs.Isla’s mom is on a trip again and doesn’t know when she will come back, and she doesn’t need to tell Apol

“IF ONLY you’re not my sister, I will not give a damn,” Apollo’s words echoed inside their living room one afternoon.Isla smiled widely. “Thank you so much, my brother,” she replied, more of a tease.When they’re done eating lunch, Zero drops her at their house before going back to his company, and it happens that she sees her brother.At first, she doesn’t know why he’s home but when she heard it’s because of Zero, an idea suddenly popped inside her head.She remembered that she asked Zero earlier to do something, and of course, to make it convincing, she also added drama. She knew it was a bad thing, but she used her situation to let Apollo fetch Becca at the airport.“If you’re trying to be cupid. Mind you, I will not ever like your best friend,” Apollo asserted while staring at her.She formed a snide. “Yeah, because you love her, right?”At this moment, she could see the invisible smoke that was coming out of her brother’s nose.Apollo frowned. “Not a chance—”“Oh, stop that, Ap

“WHERE’S ISLA?” It was Becca’s words the moment she saw Apollo.Apollo grimaced and arched his brow as he got her luggage.“Why didn’t you bring—”“Can’t you just get in the car and stop finding the person that is not here?”Becca arched her brow. “That’s why I’m looking for her because she’s not here,” she replied and rolled her eyes.Apollo sighed. “Can’t you just stop talking and walk silently?”Becca scoffed and looked at him. “God gave me this…” she pointed her mouth, “—to have the freedom to speak,” she added.Apollo pressed his lips and didn’t utter a word again until they stepped inside his car.“Geez, I hate white cars,” Becca asserted as she put on her seatbelt.Apollo couldn’t help but react. “You’re free to take the yellow cars,” he replied and started the engine.“I’m tired. Just drive. I want to go home—”“Sure—”“I mean to your house, honey,” Becca said.Apollo was stunned for a moment, and when he met Becca’s eyes, he didn’t know what to feel. It’s the first time that

ZERO’S reapers reported what just had happened the moment Isla and Becca took a cab. Three of his men were already tailing them.Troy may be thought that he has watchers.“I want this to be clean smoothly,” Zero asserted as he started to wear his suit and put his gun on his shoulder holster.“Romano is already at the location, Sir,” the man replied.Zero nodded.“Where are they right now? How’s the location?”The man informed Zero about the location, and Zero nodded.“That fucktard dared to use carbon monoxide?”The man nodded.“I will fucking kill that punk once I saw him. How are they?”“They’re fine, Sir. According to Romano, they just gained consciousness after an hour.Zero glanced at his wristwatch, and it was already six-thirty.“Where’s my bike?” he asked.“At the garage, Sir,” the reaper replied.Zero then rushed towards the private garage of his building and rode his Ducati towards the location where Troy took Isla and Becca.That bastard maybe thinks that he’s not prepared.

“CAN’T YOU feel that I don’t like you, Troy?” Isla frowned as she glared at the man who was giving the flowers and chocolates.She’s been ignoring him since that day, yet he keeps on catching her attention.“Hey, the jerky Troy Angelo, don’t wait until my cousin knocked your soul out of your body,” Becca asserted, pissed off.Troy Angelo let out a devilish chuckle. “That old man is no much to me—”“Arrogant. Don’t act braver, Angelo. You are nothing but a piece of shit,” Becca reacted, making the man clenched his fist.It’s their vacant time, and they are sitting in the garden when Troy approaches them.“They’re not married yet. So, I have the chance,” Troy uttered, making Becca burst into laughter.“Oh, come on, dickhead. There are so many women there.

IT WAS eight in the evening. After dinner, Zero and Isla stay up on the balcony of their room.Their daughter was already asleep in the next room.“How’s school?” Zero asked as he leaned on the chair and stared at her.She heaved a deep sigh, and Zero knew that there was something wrong.“Any problem?”She bit her lower lip and nodded. “In school…”“Uhm?”“—someone is bugging me and even threatening me,” Isla started and frowned when she saw Zero's unbothered face.Zero sipped on his glass of wine. “What about him… or her?”Isla sighed; turmoil suddenly pierced inside her heart which jolted her chest. Is it right to tell Zero about it? She wondered.However, it’s the best thing that she must do. Troy is a big threat.“I had a classmate. His name is Troy Angelo—”“Angelo?” Zero frowned and put down the glass on the side table. “You said, Troy, right?”Isla’s forehead creased. “Yes. Troy Angelo. And I’m sorry, I did tell him about you and our daughter. It’s the only way I thought would

“HOW CAN we get rid of them?” Isla asked as she glanced once again at the back.Zero stepped on the gas a speed the car swiftly.Instead of answering, he asked, “What do you think, baby?”Isla frowned a little bit; a thumping knocked her heart. “You need to find a deserted place or an open area.”“No people…” Zero smiled.“Don’t tell me they will fire at us?” she asked. Curiosity evaded her system as excitement jolted her chest.She saw how Zero crept a smirk on his lips. “Aren’t you getting nervous, baby?” he asked, and he drifted to the left, entering the left highway, which is bound to the mountains.“A little,” she replied.Zero let out a soft chuckle as he glanced into the side mirror once again. “Damn,” he cursed, making Isla frown and glance at the back.Soon as he darted her gaze at the foes, her eyes widened in awe. “Gun!” she exclaimed. “Faster, Zero,” she commanded.Zero let out a chuckle again. “If we’re gonna entertain those, you’ll be late for school,” he said.Isla frow

“WHAT’S MY next appointment?” Zero asked his assistant.“You have a meeting with Mr. Angelo, Sir.”Upon hearing that name, Zero grimaced. “Did I agree with this appointment?”The assistant started to tremble and nodded. “I asked about it three days ago, Sir,” he replied.“Take it down. And cut off the ties with the Angelos,” he said and stood up.“But Mr. Angelo was expecting you—”“I don’t need any partnership with the Angelos! Am I not clear?” Zero’s voice raised as anger lingers in it.“My apology, Mr. Cohen,” the assistant replied.“If so, tell dad to meet his friend. But you, I’m not allowing you to have an appointment with them,” he said and left his office.He walked towards his private elevator and was about to close it when his eyes widened and pierced his gaze to the person who had just gone inside the elevator.Zero was about to stay and pushed the open button when that person blocked his way.“What the fuck are you doing?!” he roared.“Zero…”“Fuck it, Tilda!” Zero’s angry

ISLAZero dropped us off at school before he went to his work.“See you,” I said and gave a peck on his lips, making Becca complain.“Geez, people,” Becca exclaimed as she got off the car.I shook my head and smiled after. Zero met my gaze and leaned forward as he gave me one more peck on the lips. “Bye, baby. Study well. No boys,” he uttered and winked at me.I smiled. “Of course, Sir. Uhm, check on Nana before you start working, okay?” I glanced at my wristwatch, “I have class at eight-thirty,” I said.“No problem, baby. See you. Text me, and I’ll pick you up,” he said. However, I shook my head.“No. It’s fine. We’ll take the cab—”“Call the driver then,” he interrupted, making me smile.“Baby… we’ll be safe. Besides, I know you’ve secured the area already, am I right?”Zero pressed his lips and rested his left hand on the steering wheel. “What do you think?”I smirked and got off the car. I waved goodbye before closing the car door.“Seriously?”I turned to Becca when I heard her v
