Chapter 71- Proposal

last update Last Updated: 2022-01-22 21:41:11

The television was turned off but still, I cannot move my body from the turn of events. My eyes are going to fall off as I realized what just happened. We’ve been busted from our secret relationship but that didn’t bother me more than the fact that he plead guilty to the murder. He plead guilty to a crime that he admitted he didn’t do. How can I suppose process that? How can I suppose to know about that?

There is a tremendous straining of pain inside of my heart, a knocking sword of doubt and hesitation about him but above all, my faith and love stands for the man that I’ve known and loved with all my heart. To the man who bares his soul as I bare mine.

This shit is some news for me and as I ponder the words that I’ve just heard, all I can see is the pain.

Ares sighs and both of us glance at the president, yes, right now, he wasn’t my father but he’s the president. The most influential man in this country. And the man wh

    “ Are you seriously nervous right now?” I cannot help but to chuckle when I embrace Major Sullivan and felt how cold his hands are as our skin touched. We are outside of my father’s room because he wanted to ask for my hand in marriage. I cannot believe that I am doing this right now but more importantly, I cannot believe that Major Sullivan is sweating like a nervous teenager as he blankly stares at the wooden door of the hospital room. I thought him and nervousness is two concrete things that will never cross each other’s path because they are meant for different things. But then, I was wrong. Watching him being nervous is so entertaining, his physique looks like he doesn’t get nervous at all. I have the time to take in his formal attire right now. Later, I needed to interview him if he really was dressed like this or he comes prepared in a tuxedo just to ask for my hand. The latter thought makes me want to jump and shower his face kisses because he looks s

    “ Which cake?” I asked Major Sullivan but pouted when he only showers me with kisses on my nape. I needed to pull his hair away from me because he’s been lingering over my body for some hour now. His fingers are touching every inch of my skin and it is to my disadvantage that I’ve worn a backless dress right now. If I had only known, I should’ve worn pants and a shirt to stop his hands from mauling me. We are supposed to be choosing everything from our reception because I wanted our wedding to be intimate but he’s not being helpful at all. He just nods and kisses my nape or my jaw without contributing to the decisions that we needed to make.I cannot tell that this wedding is stressing me because it is the source of my happiness too. Instead of tomorrow which was proposed by this man beside me, our wedding was scheduled for next week and the president only had one condition. He wanted it to be televised and it&rs

    Tomorrow is the day. The day that I’ve been waiting for and have earned for. Two years ago, I was a mess when the man that I loved promise forever but vanished when the morning came.I never get tired searching for him and tomorrow, his promise of forever will be finally fulfilled.My hand softly touches my belly and I chuckles to myself because up until now, I cannot believe that I am having a baby inside of my body. It feels like a dream. A dream comes true.The wind touches my skin as I looked up and stare at the night sky, it’s beauty is impeccable like all of the magic of world lies over the mixture of darkness and light above us. Wind gushes over my direction causing the metal chain of this hammock to swing into that very direction.It’s cold and my choice of clothing is very appropriate. Earlier, I wanted to wear my normal clothes but the idea of hurting the baby inside of me terrifies me. It creates a doubt of what

    And then, the music started to create a symphony of magic vibrating in every aspect of the wind as the glittering diamond of my bridal dress cascaded over the floor of this waiting room.I can hear the sound of the live band and my heart melts knowing that it was him who proposed for that. He wants it to be solemn and pure just as how I love him.“ He’s waiting.”My head snipes and a small smile crept over my lips as I turned around to the man beside me. He looks dashing and..honorable in his black tuxedo and the boutonniere in his right chest makes him look more dashing in my eyes.I don’t know if my father ever looked like this on me. But right now, my heart burns for the longing and love that is reflected on his eyes.“ I-I hope he’ll take care of you,” his voice croaks at the sound of his wish. My eyes waters because I don’t know what to say. I know that Major Sullivan will take care

    “ Amara, let’s fucking go,” Ares said making me my body jolt from my position. My butt hurts as I sit over the hard concrete floor of this church. The guests are being ushered out of the church. They are asking too much question and some are looking at me with pity in their eyes.Why are they looking at me with pity on their eyes? Are they thinking that Major Sullivan left me? I wanted to shout at them and tell them that he won’t do that.I wanted to shout at them and tell them that he told me to fucking wait for him. However, it’s been a solid minute since he chooses to chase over her and he hasn’t come back yet.Some guests patted my back. I also felt someone hugging me but I stay where I am.

    “The president was shot when we are driving out of the church, Sir. I think a sniper was hired to kill him on the spot. My team looked over the man that crashes over your car and I think it’s no accident. I will appoint some of my men to further the investigation. In the meantime, I advise for the both of them to stay inside this presidential house.”My mind felt like it’s been shattered into many pieces as I tried to open my eyes and see the light passing through the curtains.I only heard the muffled voices of a man and he sounds like he’s talking to someone. However, I am only concerned about the soreness of my body and how it aches when I tried to get up from the bed that I am lying to.“ She’s awake,” I heard another voice say. A finger opens my eyes and I can see a man in his white coat examining me.He nodded at me but I can’t seem to focus on what he was trying to say. I felt deaf and my mouth

I think I am still dreaming because the moment that I’ve opened my eyes, I saw what is really happening on the television.Ares looks shocked as he saw me.

I was only told that he was busy with his new duty. His new duty as the president of the country. I can still see his smile while swearing his oath on the national television. I know that he wants that position for a long time but I almost felt like he’s hiding something because of that smile.I tried to seek for my phone but the guard said that it wasn’t with me when I was brought here either.

  • The President's Daughter   Epilogue

    Grey perky clouds cover the vicinity of the place. They say that grief comes in many forms. It comes with agony and sadness for those who did nothing but to love. It comes with happiness and joy for those who gave resentfulness until the last breath.However, above all of those that was mentioned, nothing can beat the true meaning of grief. For those who spend their life living with that person and for those who shares every bit of their life with that person, griefs come with pain.The pain of losing someone and knowing that there is no choice left but to accept the cruelness of being left alone.I kneeled and sighs as I tried to wipe the dirt out of his name. The cold stone where his honorable name was engraved stood right infront of me. I’ve brought flowers and even this time, I don’t know if he will be happy with the type of flowers that I have chosen.Funny how even his favorite one is such a puzzle for me. I guess, I took my time rebelli

    “ No…. no!” I screams as I turned around and found them both lying on the floor.There are bloods. Lots of blood colors over Major Sullivan’s clothing. Everything for me stops the moment that I choked on my own breath and run to him.“ Amara!” I heard my father said behind me, trying to stop me from going to the man that I love but how can I? How can I not run when I literally saw blood on his clothes and know that he’s been shot.Terrors and fears fills my body when I saw him shutting his eyes.“ No!” I shouted. My hands touch his face, shaking my head as my body trembles with terror.No. No.“ Y-You can’t leave…me…again,” I whispered and just like a star appearing on the middle of the night where only darkness dominates the whole place, I saw Major Sullivan opens his eyes.I heard him sigh. “ I won’t baby,” he whispered. I was st

    “You’re going to pay for this!” Major Sullivan shouted as he tried to resists on the knots that are binding us right now.We are on the couch, our whole body is tied with some thick ropes as Ares and Maricriz appeared in front of us, their guns are pointing just right on our heads.I can feel the tip touching my skin and the coldness from it only made me shiver and drown into being terrified. I know that in just one click, the bullet will surely pierce through our heads.My body is shaking from the fear and from everything. I am still lost because of the too much information that I’ve absorbed earlier and now, I am being tied on the couch whilst a gun is pointed at my head.Tears are streaming down my face. I was trying to calm myself but I just can’t simply do that. I was choking from too much nervousness.Maricriz stopped in my direction, the tip of her gun is pointing just beneath my jaw forcing me to

    Whilst I don’t know what to expect as I was ushered out of the car. Major Sullivan is holding me like I’m a fragile object that will shatter at the moment that he will drop his hands.Maricriz is beside us. Or beside him, and judging by her reactions, I think she’s curious or entertained right now. I can’t figure out why she’s alive and why she’s here.There is no way that she accidentally turns out on our wedding day and drops all of this like a bomb, waiting to explode.The journey to the house felt like forever. Major Sullivan kept on touching my hands and reminding me of his presence. I’ve never been to this part of the country where the next house is located miles away from this one.I don’t know how they pulled this out or how they escaped me out of Ares’s den.As soon as the door opened, I was expecting a little not so ambitious style of the house. The outer exterior looks like it’s

    “She’s awake.” My mind heard someone say or whisper right beneath my ears. I don’t know what to do because when I tried to move my body, all I can feel is the leather itch strap holding me back down into whatever I am tied to. I can feel a loud gush of the wind and it seems like I am inside of an enclosed space where there is only one cycle of a breathing pattern that is allowed to do. My back is aching from being tied down for so long. How long have I been out of this world? Then, it occurred to me. The nurse forces me to gulp some capsules after she injected me something. I fought my urge to be drowned back to the oblivion. No. The nurse is working for someone else making me panic. My body started to squirm out of the hold of the bound. I shouted but there is something in my mouth. It’s a piece of clothing preventing me from speaking. It tastes like fabric clothing. The only thing that I can do is to open my eyes. Sensing the danger, I am mu

    My goal right now was to escape Ares. I don’t know how to start but I definitely needed to do something about my life right now. Before, I used to think that I possess a Masteral degree when it comes to escaping. I didn’t have any problem with running out of the presidential house as well as with the bodyguards. Considering that they are trained professionals, I partake pride in my works of escaping against their vision and running out of their sight.I am used to escaping. It’s always the plan when everything seems to be heavy in my life. I used to escape for fun but right now, it’s not for fun anymore. It’s a matter of life and death situation because escaping means that I will have the chance to get out of this hell.Inside of my heart, the emotions and commotion cannot be sustained with every ounce of braveness that I’m using to bridge the gap of wanting to survive and accepting my fate in this lifetime. What happened the o

    Huddling inside of the room, Ares tried to get my attention as I helped myself with the television. This is the only entertainment that I can have to not make my sanity wash over the wind.The only entertainment that I was allowed in this prison. In this prison where I was forced to live, without knowing that I’m in the devil's den. The memory of the day of the accident drowns my thought away. It’s one of the things that is bothering me right now.Ares was there too. He insisted on driving the car for me as I was wrecked and stubborn, trying to chase Major Sullivan. His expression and the concern in his voice shook me within.I cannot accept it. None of it seems like a dream.A tear slid down my cheeks and I was abrupt on wiping it over. I cannot afford to be weak but being pregnant makes me sensitive and fragile. It makes me overthink things that I shouldn’t suppose to think of.Ares moves over causing our skin to touch with one

    The room is silent. If only the gush of the wind can spare a moment from creating a whirlwind sound, the cricket outside can definitely be heard because of the silence. It’s been like this, it’s always been like this, and every time that I had a glimpse of what Ares and I had done in this lifetime, all I can feel is disgust.Major Sullivan messages stills appeared right into my mind. It’s like a permanent reminder that right now, I am in the lion’s den and he is dangerous. I should deem him as a dangerous predator pretending to be a protector.I should deem him as nothing but the enemy. That is what Major Sullivan wants. He wanted me to be careful and I don’t want to do anything that will put me into the danger zone.My baby. Our baby needed to be protected from Ares. I gulped as I survey his movement, watching his movement in caution.Ares looked down on me. He was trying to unbutton his coat, leaving him with only his white
