The two curled in their sleep.

Facing but not seeing each other. 

They both had a sleepless night the before today. One had difficulty sleeping, knowing the other was mad and upset about her, while the other could not sleep because he had been digging everything to protect the girl he cherishes the most in the world. 

They were too close but yet too far. They are both at an arm's length, but they cannot stretch their arms to reach out. All with and due to different reasons. Reasons which for now seem so blurred to see a clear picture of what the future has in store for them. 

But unknown to both, their situation is what brings them closer together. 

While they were sleeping like babies, Kelly was waiting at home for Kate to be back. Kelly had been calling her on her phone, but as it was on full silent mode, with no sounds and even vibration, which Kate would do when she goes to school

    Kate nodded her reply. She has at least five minutes more left to think about her answer. As Kate gave it a more profound thought, she realized Nick had a point. Letting her mom know about what really happened today will sadden her that Kate is being bullied at school. She might even know the extent of her misdeeds about having a boyfriend and inviting the guy to their home when her mom was not around. Kate was even more afraid of Kelly finding out that Kate had made out with her so-called boyfriend that time he came over to their home right at their very own living room. Kate knocked her head. She silently cursed herself for her stupidity. Lucky for her, Nick came, or she wouldn't know how far they could have gone with how persistent Andrew was and how pathetically weak she had been.

  • The Wild Adventures   Teasing Kate

    Nick teased Kate. But Kate didn't want to believe him. She was still dazed from that good few hours of nap that she had. She is actually finding it hard to believe that Nick is being playful with her.Nick, on the other hand, was feeling guilty when he recalled that Kate was sad in her sleep because she thought Nick hated her. He wanted to make her feel she was wrong to think so, but his words may find it hard to come out of his stubborn mouth to tell her. His strained playfulness would send the message better if he is not mistaken."Do you wanna know what you said in your sleep?" Nick pretends to defend that he is not a lair. Although he was not lying, he feigned to feel annoyed that Kate makes it sound that he is lying. So he wanted to prove to her his words. Again, pretentiously."What did I say?" Kate glared at Nick. She was trying to hide her embarrassment by glaring at him quickly. She could not let her glare last even more than ten seconds as she worried her faci

    As Kelly had asked of Nick, he agreed to stay for the night. His room is kept the way they were so he can sleep just like he used to before he moved to his pad. But before the three of them head to their respective rooms, Kate and Nick helped Kelly clean and tidy the kitchen up. They don't have helpers or housemaids to do the task. It would all fall into Kelly's if the two do not help. With the three of them doing all the tasks together, they were done soon and went to get ready for bed. Kelly made sure Nick had all he needed before she went to bed."Nick, honey?" Kelly knocked on his door gently.Nick was already on his bed reading some files on his tablet, but as he was dressed decently with a set of pajamas, he did not hesitate to let Kelly in."It's open, mom. Come in," Nick replied.Kelly just peeked from the door. She did not want to bother him so much, so she was only going to ask a quick question."Do you n

    Nick felt like he was being pulled by an invisible hand. He lost his mind and crossed that one step distance between them. His left arm wound around Kate's waist, and his right cupped her face. Everything happened too fast that Kate was not sure if anything of these was real. She closed her eyes as soon she felt Nick's breath so near her. Nick thought Kate was welcoming his actions as to why she closed her eyes. It made him bolder. He softly brushed his lips against her. Kate felt his lips warm next to hers. With her eyes still closed, she mimicked his lips' moves unconsciously. The two felt like they were floating in the clouds of their world that they let their mind drift off and swim in the vast sea of lust. The two souls felt like big waves were tossing them far from the shore of sanity. Numbing their rationality like they were inside a dream and free to do whatever they wished.

    Kate was overwhelmed with emotion. She was frightened, embarrassed, shocked, but she was also delighted. And with all these emotions that she was swamped with, she could not choose which one should win over her. All she could do was sob in Nick's embrace. "Kate…? Are you mad at me?" Nick asked softly. Kate shook her head, but as she was wrapped around his arms, Nick was not sure if she nodded yes or if she answered what he was hoping she did, a no. He moved back to get a good look at her face. It was dark with only a night lamp on her bedside table turned on to brighten the room. Kate had her eyes closed, tears still evident as her eyelashes were glistening and her hands covered her mouth to muffle it. "Can you tell me again? Are you mad at me?" Nick asked again with his gaze fixed only on her face. He was scared to know her answer, yet he still had to. And she replied in the very same m

    Nick went back to his room when he was sure Kate was already asleep. He washed up and changed his nightclothes before going to bed. Another sleepless night for Nick. His heart was torn into half of great delight and half of weariness. But there was nothing he could do now to reverse everything that had happened. And maybe if there were any way that he could do so, Nick would still choose to keep them the way they did. Because it revealed both of their emotions towards each other, Kate also admitted he liked Nick, and likewise, Nick was able to confess his true feeling for Kate. Making her feel more comfortable around him. "Everything must have happened for a reason," Nick uttered. His dad would usually say these words when he was still alive. And it made Nick understand many things easier and faster. It broadens his perspectives on life. It made him passive on things to let go of and be less stressed on minor things. Now, Nick is praying

    Kelly recalled how she lived the colorful days of her youth. She attended every school pageant with her striking beauty. She was one of the school swimmers from a young age as she liked swimming ever since she was a toddler. It became her sport, and it helped her keep her body healthy and fit. Also another reason why her teachers would ask her to represent their year level for a few school beauty contest. She had a lot of friends. Many people liked her, but so as those who hated her. Yet, she did not mind. She knew she could never please everyone, whatever she may do. She just lived freely. She was an only daughter of a middle-class business couple. Their cargo forwarding business was among the top in the industry. But she wanted to pursue nursing. She was thinking about providing her parents with familiarity with medical assistance when they turned older, so she chose to take a nursing course since medicine would take too long to study.

    “What’s wrong? What happened?” Mavie asked, baffled as the man suddenly wrapped his arms around her waist and he cried pitifully. Mavie looked at the patient on the bed, there was nothing unusual. His heartbeat was normal, and he looked just the way he used to be a coma patient. “What is going on? Please tell me….” Mavie answered assuringly. Trying to calm her Master to the best of her ability. She was also starting to feel scared because she had never seen this brave man act the way he was at that moment. Judas told her everything that he had seen his grandpa did except the part where he mentioned Mavie as his girl. But as he tried to ask again to show Mavie, the old man on the bed did nothing similar to what Judas was excitedly telling Mavie. “Mister Dinero, it’s me, Mavie. Do you recognize me?” Mavie asked casually, speaking to her patient like she would usually do. But the patient’s eyes did not move like Judas said they did. They tried again. Nothing. “I asked him a few q

    As for Mavie, she was actually brave only because she knew some of her Master's men were around to protect her. But she was not going to rely everything on them. She will fight on her own if someone comes trying to bring her down. Mavie admits that her bravery was also because she was more than confident that her Master was not going to let her be bullied other than him. Like Judas would tell her most of the time; "You are my slave. I am your only Master. No one is allowed to order you around other than me. Not even a bully aside from me."So she did not fear to act accordingly, protecting herself when someone tried to intimidate her with violence. But she did not want to let the matter get worse. Mavie tried to deal with what happened in her own way."Mister Ray, please do not tell my Master about what happened today. I don't want him to get mad or worry about me. He already has so much to handle. I do not wish to add to the things that would bother him about me."Mavie begged Ray o

    Days went on. Days became weeks. Weeks turned to months, and months became a year. A lot of things happened. Joaquin Dinero, Mavie's patient, passed away in his nap with Judas and Mavie right beside him. His body had seemed to reject the medications, and in Judas' dreams, his grandpa spoke to him that he was too tired and wanted to join his wife in peace. Ever since then, the grandson was torn between the sadness to let his grandpa go, and another sorrow that he was refusing to grant the last, one and only wish the old man seemed to have asked of Judas, the grandson. It was not even a wish done like every ordinary people would do. It was like asking Judas to let his grandfather die. And the way of asking such a wish was through a dream which Judas could not find in his heart to fully believe until he realized that every medical procedure and treatment they tried to provide the old Dinero did not seem to have any positive effect. But, of course, the grandson did not give up. Mav

    Mavie did not want to disobey her employer so she ate the oatmeal although she was not a fan of eating it. She had to take some meds to get better very soon so she could do her tasks, and so she did everything her Master had ordered her. The medicine had an effect to make her feel sleepy so even if she did not want to sleep, thinking it was rude when her employer was around, her body was not able to fight against the medicine’s effect. Without her knowing, she had a good sleep and rested, when she woke up, she felt way much better. It was almost like she had never had any cramps earlier that day. “What are you doing?” Judas asked when he heard some noises from the kitchen while he was checking the monitors all around the house, his and his grandpa’s, his business building, and everything that was going on in his operations. By having an eye directly able to see everything in and out of his business establishments, Judas can easily handle problems even when he is afar. “Ahmm, I am s

    Just as Judas had ordered, the lady doctor was able to speak with Ray, but the doctor suggested that the patient be brought to the hospital for a proper check-up. “At the clinic, we have everything we might need in order to make sure everything is accurate, unlike when we do it on house calls. It would be best to have her womb checked through an abdominal or vaginal ultrasound.” Ray relayed the message to his boss. Judas was silent for a while. He had to think of a way to keep everything in safety. There were a few things Judas had to consider whatever he might decide to do in his predicament. “Ray, I want you to check who gave me the first call with an unregistered number today. Can we make it quick? I want to bring Mavie to the hospital, but I am worried about leaving grandpa behind,” Judas stated with a dark face. Ray knew that look. As the assistant for the mafia don for quite a while now, he had learned to read between the lines, hear unspoken statements, and read his boss’ m

    "Master….?" Mavie called out softly. Mavie was not so sure she was allowed to address the man the way they had agreed. She was confused if their arrangement also applied while she was on work duty or on the weekdays, now that they both realized they were also employee and employer aside from being slave and Master. But calling the man master was not something she felt awkward about at all, so when she noticed the man did not seem to mind her way of addressing him, Mavie continued to ask what she had in her thoughts. "How was the result from the test we did last Sunday with the doctor?" Judas was not sure if this girl was playing a silly game or if she was really unaware of such facts about the human reproductive system. But when he looked at Mavie's frail mien, Judas' gaze lowered and continued to clean his grandpa's teeth and gums with the soft and wet cloth. Just the way he saw on the security surveillance camera how Mavie would do such tasks of keeping the patient feeling fresh

    “Master….?” Mavie did not expect to see the man, but instead of surprise, a faint smile was visible on her face. If there was someone Mavie wished to see at the very moment, it was no other than this person. The only person she had been thinking of with so much longing to see again, spend time with, no matter what reasons fate had to bring them together. “Master, is it really you?” Mavie asked again but in a soft whisper. Judas had so many scenes played in his mind of how this moment would turn out to be in reality to have a slight idea; if he cannot be accurate, so he would know how to explain and clarify his identity to Mavie. He had expected her to be surprised, first of all. If not, she should be scared o upset, but among all the possibilities his mind had conceived, Judas was baffled to see an exact opposite to what he had supposed Mavie would have reacted. “I had hoped the names of my slave and the hired carer for my grandpa would be one and the same person,” Judas hid his a

    Ray started to check the packaging label of the item. He had a picture from Mavie’s stocks and the products that were on the racks. “They have the same packaging, right?” Ray held the pack and showed it to Judas. “This item is the same as the one in this picture, right, boss?”The cashier was watching the only customers he had in the store in the wee hours of the night; two men, as they chose items on the shelves. The store worker was not confident to walk closer and offer his assistance because he noticed they were on a section he was not very knowledgeable about. He was a man, after all, so he did not know much about sanitary pads. He was confident he could assist them, but only if they wanted to pay for their purchases. Because f they were going to ask anything else about the item, the worker was not ready to answer any questions. But if they still chose to approach him, he would just tell them to check the prints on the packaging. That’s all he could to help. Soon enough, two da

    Ray was startled when he noticed his boss got into a car parked right outside the gates. Judas had ordered one of his men to bring a vehicle outside his gates and had its engine started because he would be leaving soon. And it was right where Judas asked it to be when they walked out of his grandpa's house. "Boss…?" Ray called for Judas' attention with hesitations. "What?" Judas asked as he fastened his seatbelt, seated right next to Ray, who was sitting behind the wheels. "I'm going to buy the pads and a serving of warm porridge. You can take your rest. I can handle this," Ray answered cautiously. "I have no doubt you can. I am even amazed you don't seem bothered that you are going to buy such items for a woman. Personal, if I may add," Judas said casually. "I don't think you're that kind of guy…." Judas could not say his words exactly. The Mafia Don was also cautious not to offend Ray's feelings if he happened to be wrong in his thoughts. They do not have much of an age differe
