Andrea's POVMixing my coffee at the same time checking my watch in my wrist, and looking at the road because I'm waiting for my father to arrived. He always late whenever I am setting an unexpected lunch with my dad. Ugh! No wonder if he's on his way and stuck on the heavy traffic. I leaned on the chair and noticed my coffee is already cold maybe because of waiting too long, and didn't noticed that my beverage become my main of attraction. My dad never came to our meeting place in the right time."He never learned. Next time, I came to our meeting place when he's already here.""Sorry I'm late," My father's voice suddenly speak up. I take a deep breath, "At last, you came. I thought you need a red carpet before getting here and you almost waste my time, dad." Don't forget the sarcasm, guys. He sat down on the opposite chair, "Forgive me. Even if my car wanted to passed all those cars ahead, I can't. There's a traffic enforcer around because of the accident happen.""Whatever reas
Kalix's POVAs my feet step inside the restaurant and started looking around to find my father, which I don't know exactly where he is right now because the last time we talked he told me he's waiting in the same restaurant. I scratch my head and tried calling him but his phone was off, and probably done that. But my eyes landed on the corner, where I find the familiar person having conversation. I even saw Andrea talking to my father, but she seemed not happy seeing him. What do I expect? Of course she's not happy. I slowly approach them and heard their conversation when finally reach their table, but instead of joining them. I hide behind the small fountain and eavesdrop. "You must be mistaken, Andrea. He told me yesterday that you had a nice conversation and knowing each other," My father said. "Is that so? Then should I asked him when he get here? He is coming, right?" She rudely muttered, "Besides, this place is not newly opened and as far as I know, it was open four years ag
Gabriela's POVCareful. Care... Ful...I checked the stairs because I have to. My father popping up like a mushroom whenever I'm coming down, so I have to be careful or else my plan will be ruined. After knowing he's gonna keep me here until I give birth, I created a plan on how to escape this hellish house. My dad killing me in boredom. He's not allowing me to go outside unless I'm with my bodyguards, not allowed to go alone unless Madeline is with me. He doesn't even let me breath a fresh air, in short he wanted to kill me slowly with boredom! Argh! They can't find out I'm not pregnant, that I'm faking it. He'll definitely kill me after putting our name in shame, worse, I have to live far from Kalix. Yes, you heard it right. I heard my mom and dad talking about sending me to the place where my Aunt Lucinda live, and that was located in Moscow. The place I hated the most. So, don't blamed me if I choose running away from home and be with the man I love. I closed the door slowly
Gabriela's POVWhere the hell is that man? He should be here because if Kalix didn't show up, I'm doomed. I checked my wristwatch for the 20th time and my phone, but still no message from him. Is he planning to ditch me? Maybe he called my parents and told them I escaped from our mansion in order to be with him. Argh! I'll definitely kill that man. He should thank me since I couldn't kill him because he's the father of my child and I love him so much. That's why I'm waiting for another three hours and forgive him. "If he ditch me, I swear to God. He'll definitely received my wrath."I sighed because somehow escaping our mansion in order to be with him is kinda out of my plan. I mean, leaving our mansion wasn't my plan at all. Just wanna made them to realize how badly I need Kalix in my life, he's the man who made me whole for some reason. Perhaps he is not perfect into their eyes, but for me? Kalix is the man who made me happy. *Car honks*I looked at the car parked in front of m
Mr. Davis's POV"Gabriela!!!!!" I shouted in anger. "What's wrong? Why are you shouting in broad daylight?"My wife immediately approach me and she came from the dining room all the way here. After knowing my daughter's room was empty and she's nowhere to be found, and know exactly where she is right now. "Do you wanna know what's wrong? Your daughter is gone and do you have any idea where she is right now?"She shook her head, "Where?""Come on, Imelda! Why are you so slow? She's go with the man whose the main reason of this problem! And why are you acting calmly?" I asked. "Because I already know that. Your granddaughter told me she saw her mother left earlier, and even drive her away.""You know what?"She sighed, "Greg, calm down. She's in the right hands. So, instead of shouting all day and tried calling your daughter. Why don't you calm down and let her be? Since Gabriela is desperately wanted to be with him.""Are you insane? Why are we letting our daughter be with that man?
Andrea's POVI placed the bouquet in front of my mother's tomb, and sat down on the marble chair. Her tomb was customize by me because I want her to feel she's at home, even though she is already in heaven. I made it look like her room because it only remind me the days we're together as family. I take a deep breath and smile, somehow seeing her tomb after all those years is a relief. Since I am pretty busy with my own life, and dealing with those people who wanted to take away my freedom. It includes my father. Whenever he invade my life, she never failed supporting me but destiny was too harsh. "I wish you're still here, mom. I wish you're here to support me and help me made father realized that this wedding is the biggest mistake he did," I murmured. "You know what, mom? I want to be brave everyday like he wouldn't see my weakness, but whenever I'm trying to stop him for interfering my life... I'm always failed."My tears started forming in my eyes, "He only listen to you and si
Andrea's POV[So, how's your day? We hang out rarely because my dad's company need a handler.]"I completely understand why you can't accompany me."[Don't worry, Andy. We'll have fun again after this.]I am currently talking to Cassie, the only person who didn't left me neither snatch my fiance. After I got engaged with a man who become the reason of my miserable life, most of my friends having their own sides. Especially Maddy and Gabby. Madeline traveled a lot and I think she didn't care at all, while Gabriela? We haven't talk for almost months. I haven't heard any news about her. So, I think that's a good news? [How's the others?] She asked out of topic. I sighed, "Well, as far as I know. Madeline travel all around the world because that's what she keep telling us."[What about Gabby? Did you two already talked?]"We haven't spoke for months, and I don't think she needs us anymore. I mean, she keep choosing my fiance than us, not unless she hit her head."[So, you and Gabriela
Gabriela's POVIt's been three days since I runaway from our mansion and I'm pretty confused because there's no a single messages from my parents. Perhaps, they already give up? Or maybe they didn't care at all? Whatever reasons they have, I didn't care too. They probably realized what I keep telling them. My father never understand me and always wishing that someday, I don't need to rely on their decision. I'm old enough to take care of myself, and relying to them wasn't a good choice. I can feed, clothe, shelter myself even bought everything we need. I stop in front of the doctor's office, this is the doctor Kalix recommended to me. And I don't have a choice but set an appointment in order to check what is happening with me. So, I knocked on the door and waited until someone open it. A middle age doctor exposed to me, as if she is expecting me to come. Maybe Kalix mentioned about my visit."You must be Gabriela Davis?" She asked. This lady is like a terror teacher in the univers
EPILOGUE~TWO YEARS LATERThird person POV "Ahhhhh!!!!" Andrea screamed in top of her lungs.Her heavy breathing can be heard inside the car and she's losing her mind because of the pain coming to her private part. She's scheduled to deliver her baby today but doesn't expecting such terrible experience to deliver her baby. "Drive faster! You idiot!" She curse to her husband. Kalix was driving calmly, although he's scared at the same time excited to finally meet their child. His face lighten as he saw the hospital ahead of them, and passed all the car just to immediately arrived to the hospital. He park on the parking lot, and help his wife. They are approached by the nurse in charge and let his wife seated on the wheelchair. "Ahhhhhhhhh! He's coming!" Andrea cried in pain and hold her husband's hand. She couldn't endure the pain anymore and wounded Kalix because of her nails, even though she's trying to be gentle but end up hurting her husband. "Hold on, wife. We're almost there
Kalix's POV I am stuck at the middle of the road because of the heavy traffic ahead of me, and couldn't wait any longer because I have a wedding to catch. This is frustrating. When I found out Andrea is getting married with her childhood friend, so without any questions and hesitation. I came home just to stop her from marrying that man. This is unbelievable, I know. Rejecting her and left without telling her where place I'm going to stay, especially since I distanced myself from her when we came back to our city. However, I realized how important she is for me. She's the woman I want to marry and be with forever, that's why I'm not letting her marry him out of pity..."F*ck! This traffic is getting into my nerves!" I pressed my car's horn several times because of frustration. If I can't make it on time. I'll definitely blame myself. But this traffic is getting worst! What an unlucky day. If my brother warned me about this wedding early than he did, maybe I wouldn't stuck in this
THE BIG DAY! Andrea's POV This is really it. My big day and there's not turning back at this stake, they are counting on me and my groom waiting for me inside this church along the guest we invited to my special day. My father's friends, investors and even known millionaires was invited, enough to make me anxious and made me vomit. I was inside our limousine, trying to calm myself and take a deep breath because it's very frustrating. Marrying David was out of my league because I don't want him to give my love, especially since it already belongs to someone else. I don't want to use him as a rebound, but I already did. So, I hate myself from being so careless and self-centered. "Ms. Rodriguez, your father message me. They are waiting inside," the driver remind me that I'm getting married. "Oh, sorry. Got a little nervous..." I reasoned."That's normal, miss. I remember the day I married the girl in my dreams, that day I almost passed out in joy."He chuckled, "I humiliate myself
Andrea's POV "We never thought you're going to marry someone else this fast," Maddy said while checking the latest magazine for wedding gowns in the famous shop we stop by. "Yeah, Maddy was right. I thought you are destined to him, and can't wait to see you two walking on the aisle. But, my thoughts was pretty wrong from the very beginning. I don't have to say what," Cassie muttered. "Well, at least our best friend is finally getting married. Am I right?" Gabriela disposed. They agreed to what Gabriela said and I'm busy searching for my dress, and gladly my friends are here to help me to choose what's best for my unplanned wedding. However, I couldn't stop thinking about him. I'm referring to Kalix, and that's quite inappropriate for me. This wedding wasn't even part of my plan at the first place but because of my anger, and I was carried away by that. I provoke myself to do such unacceptable actions that lead me here, which is inescapable because David was elated."Have you find
David's POV "Are you sure about your decision?" Mr. Rodriguez asked. I nodded, "I am, Mr. Rodriguez. I am sure about this.""But my daughter needs you."Yeah, she needs me before. But everything change quickly as the days passed by, and as the day passing by. Andrea changing moderately. She changed to someone whose so genuine and caring, and become someone who I never see in my life. "No, she doesn't need me anymore. Andrea can stand with her own feet and doesn't need any help from me," I replied. "Whatever my daughter did, hope you forgive her and stay. Even though she looked feisty, she's still the fragile girl we know..." Mr. Rodriguez muttered. "I highly doubt that, sir. Andrea wasn't afraid anymore, she is no longer the girl we know. She's not terrified, scared, or even using her rude side to fight with everyone else. She is not the woman we know..." I answered. My childhood best friend change, but I think that's good? I mean, she no longer need me and doesn't have to came
FIVE WEEKS LATER Andrea's POV "Kalix! Please, open the door!" I've been knocking for three hours and still no one answering my call. After he left our mansion without saying goodbye and turn into a complete ghost, after that he cut our connections to each other and blocked me to his social media accounts. I was literally dump by him but it doesn't matter anymore..."Open the door, please! Talked to me!" Even if I looked like an idiot here who keep knocking on his door without even knowing if he's still living here. He's not staying on his penthouse anymore and this is my last chance talking to him, when his father told me he own a small house. Kalix is very modest for living on a tiny yet cozy house, but I think he's not living here anymore since I still receive nothing. I stop from knocking and sat down on his patio, and then, I pressed my forehead to my knees and start crying. This is my first time falling in love but already lost the chances to have the man I love. Does it mea
Kalix's POVI parked my car and head outside, before glimpsing to her room and the lights is already off. I glanced at the window intently and sighed because it's been weeks since decided to distance myself away from her, and cut the unexpected bond we share at the beach. Perhaps it's my fault because I tame a very unfriendly person, and now need to pay what kind of consequences awaits me. I set an alarm to my car beforehand heading inside, which everything is eaten by darkness. But I ignore that odd and unusual darkness because whenever I'm coming home to this mansion late, the lights is on. Yes, I intentionally went home late to avoid Andrea and to rescued her from falling in love with me. However, when I was about to step on the stairs. The light turn on and saw her standing on the end of the stairs, she probably waiting for me although her sights already falling asleep. While I'm in the first floor looking at her because I thought she's already asleep, and doesn't need to deal h
FIVE DAYS AGOAndrea's POV I've been laying on my bed for almost three hours and still waiting for him to come home. I don't know but he always come home late and it made me feel Kalix trying to avoid me for five days! I've been waiting for him every night and end up falling asleep, as if he knew I can't stay awake that longer and that case he doesn't need to deal with me. And scientifically speaking, this house felt empty because I was all alone since coming home from vacation and my friends are quite busy with their own lives. My father and I already discussed about everything, and forgive him for all the mistakes he'd done. I even asked my biological family to let Cassie back to our lives because she's my sister and can't live without her. I immediately woke up to my bed when heard a car parked outside the mansion, so I checked myself on the mirror to make sure I am still fresh. Before heading downstairs with excitement and my heart beating fast at the same time. In my surprised
Kalix's POVWhen everyone was busy having a chat in the living room, I decided to make my way out of the house because of my job waiting for me in my office. I already see them and for me that's enough to go home, and not stay here. But when I was about to grab the doorknob, Gabriela grabbed it first and blocked my way. She's holding it tightly and looking at my eyes intently. As if Gabriela has something to say to me but having second thoughts how to start it. "Where'd you think your going?" She asked. "Leaving, I guess? I have no business here anymore, so it's time for me to leave.""Pardon?" She muttered. "What? Did I say something wrong?" I answered. "For goodness sake, Kalix. This is your time!""What'd you mean?""Don't be such innocent, Kal. Andrea was inside and that's your chance to speak with her, especially since you have a memorable vacation in Florida. Aren't you?" She muttered. "Wait, how did you know about that? Don't tell me...""Yes!" She immediately answered, "
