Soleil shrieked then giggled. "Guys, our Athijha's love life isn't as boring as it seems! Oh my gosh! She misses someone and that someone is probably her boyfriend!"
I wanted to hide my face out of embarrassment. Soleil doesn't have to announce that. What if someone who knows us hears what she just said. Jeez! It'll be a hot topic on some of the social media platforms.
And now, all I want is the ground to break open and swallow me alive. My goodness! These girls won't stop teasing me about the guy I am dating.
They have a lot of suggestions and hunches about who is the lucky guy according to them. They even asked me if he's on

You're not going to tell him about this, right? Love? This won't happen again I promise. And I kinda miss eating pizza with you," I flashed a cute smile. "Please," I almost shrieked in joy when he nodded. He planted a soft kiss on my forehead. "Just this time, okay?" I nodded. "You sneaky fox." "This sneaky fox is yours alone, love," I winked at him and laughed when he glared at me. He took a slice of pizza and sat beside me. It only took him a few bites to finish that one slice so he took another one. "Anyway, the fashion show will happen tomorrow and I'm kind of nervous since it's my first time. You can stay here or go out and stroll around New Zealand if you like. You can come and watch too. But you know, you should not waste y

Quel was stifling his smile while I am wearing simple doll shoes. He's still not over about my stupidity earlier. Like, who in their right mind would go out wearing a pair of pajamas. I didn't even brush my hair! I was completely out of my mind.If someone recognizes me in that outfit and took a photo of me to post on any social media platform, I'll be doomed.I grunted and tied my hair up. "Stop teasing me, will you?" I rolled my eyes in annoyance.He placed his hands on his waist and shook his head. He was eyeing with so many unknown emotions dancing in his eyes. He might be biting his lips to stifle a smile but his eyes scream and show how big his smile is."Stop staring at me," I stamp my right foot and crossed my arms under my ch

Up until now, I'm still not used to people who ask to take a photo with me. It's kind of overwhelming. But I guess, soon, I'll be able to smile at the camera without hesitations, just pure confidence."Oh my God! Thank you."I was greeted by the tranquil ambiance of the room. Turns out that I am the third person to arrive here that's why it's not as chaotic when my other friends are here.Iris waved at me. "Hey," I greeted and hugged her."I can't believe that you'll end up working in the showbiz industry. You were so timid and quiet," Iris uttered with gestures."Silly, I was just shy. I think my chosen career helped me boost my confidence, don't you think?" I chuckled.

"Don't always look up, especially when it's stable and a mess. You might stumble on the things you least expect to trap you on the ground," She looked at me. She's holding a glass of apple juice. "Hi, Athijha,""Hey Cali," I greeted her back.She squinted her eyes. "Why does it feel like you want to ask me about something?""Am I that transparent?" I kidded and chuckled."Yup! So, what do want to ask me? Come on, I'm interested to hear it.""How much do you know?" I asked in a flat tone."Hmm... how much do I know..." She held her chin then looked up. "I know a lot, Athijha. But not all."

I was awakened the moment I was gently placed down on the soft mattress. I slowly opened my eyes and found my husband helping me to remove my footwear.I groaned and slowly sat down. I massaged my temple while my other hand is sitting on my lap. My mouth was tightly shut as I feel my stomach swirling. I was biting the insides of my cheeks. I feel like I'm gonna throw up."Quel," I called in a faint voice."Hold up, I'll go get you some water," He turned his back and walked away without letting me voice out what I wanted to say.I covered my mouth and get off the bed. I accompanied myself to the bathroom even if my vision keeps of rotating. But I wasn't able to bring myself there. I fell on the floor and threw up.

"Do you realize what could have happened to you if I didn't come to get you? Someone could have taken advantage of your drunk state," His hands were on his waist while scolding me. "Damn, if someone recognizes you as a model, they're gonna make an issue to bring you down especially when they're your bashers.""I wasn't thinking last night," I pouted. "And they can't take advantage of me, I brought a pepper spray."His eyebrows furrowed even more. "Which you didn't use on me last night when you did not recognize me," He sarcastically replied."So you came for me?" I asked, a little delighted at what he did."You called me, Athijha," My mouth agape open. Did I call him? "And you didn't recognize me when I was already standing next to yo

My eyes widened upon realizing that he knew that we're not on good terms, though it was just a show for us to protect each other."Surprised? My mom told me about that. That was one of the reasons why I was so mad at you when we got married. I thought that you're doing all of these because you hated her. But everything you spilled out made me realize how much you love her."I was about to speak when he gestured to me to just listen to him."I know that you can't recall this yet but you sounded so proud last night when you were talking about her. I never knew that you're waiting for her to come back. You are longing for her, are you?"I smiled and nodded. "I am.""You told me that she

"Yeah, yeah, whatever you say, jerk," I rolled my eyes then finished the water he gave me. "I'll go change back into my clothes. Wait for me, okay?"I closed the door of the dressing room then I found myself clenching my chest while tears are streaming down my face. I covered my mouth and proceed on my real agenda why I locked myself in here.I fanned my face and looked up to prevent the tears from streaming on my face more.I took my purse then checked myself in front of the mirror to make sure that he won't see something questionable such as a tear-stained face or gloomy eyes.I put on a smile to hide the storm of emotions deep inside of me."Let's go shop for something to wear tom

"Clea," Exiquel called right after I jumped out of our car. "Are you hear to play with me again?" He asked.I smiled then waved at him. "Of course, what else could be the reason I am here?" I asked.I witnessed how my father treated Athijha and she witnessed how hard it was for me too. My sister and I was there for each other but we never had the power to save each other.We were exposed to tons and tons of crimes at such a young age. We were exposed to killing and smuggling, all for the mafia. And even if I want to deny it, Athijha and I were also victims of our father's craziness.My hatred towards this family grew that I even did the most stupid mistake. I used Athijha as as shield just so I can enjoy my life.I started feeling envious towards my sister when I found out that we have different fathers. And I always wished I was her because even if she's an illegitimate child, her real dad is not like mine.I'd always cry myself to sleep after dad's done with his business with me.I'

"Why... why didn't you do it?""I don't know what to say to that person," She replied.I felt enraged towards the person she's talking about. He must hide under his mom's skirt once I find out who he is because curse the ground he's standing on to. I will definitely hunt her until he wishes he died before he could meet me.She was mumbling something but it's a little vague and faint."What? Sorry, Assia, I didn't catch it," I said.Her jaw almost fell when I said that. I wonder what's wrong with her.She laughed nervously and then shook her head. "I didn't say anything. Ha ha ha," She averted her gaze and then smiled a little. "I just find the crowd a little uncomfortable."I chuckled. "Still not used to the crowd, huh?"Something hasn't changed. "I guess I could never get used to it," She whispered in the air.I presented my hand. Her eyes traveled from my palm, up to my shoulder, and then to my bluebell eyes. A smile which reached my eyes crept on my lips as she stares at me with t

"Then I'll just go back to my s-," Before she could even finish what she was saying, I grabbed her arm.My brows are furrowed. "Nope, you're not going anywhere. You're staying here with me."She just want to tease me and damn, love, it's working!She closed her eyes. She sighed and smiled as if she's planning some mischievous things again and wants me to be a part of it.She tugged the hem of my shirt. "What?" I asked."Will you go with me?" She asked in a flirtatious manner.I looked around. "Where?"She smiled a little. "To the cliff, of course.""No," I said which made her brows furrow."Why not?" She asked."You just want to escape this party and just don't want to hear their farewells," I replied and crossed my arms. "And what are you gonna do there? Just stare at the moon or something?"She made a face then stepped on my foot."Stop sounding so sarcastic. And it's better to talk with my son than hear their farewells and shed a tear in the crowd.

"Do you feel okay, little sis?" River asked.She tried to reach up for her brother's hand as her eyes starts to water. "Kuya," She called, almost voiceless. "Kuya," She repeated in much clearer voice.She calls her Kuya, huh? It is a Filipino word which refers to your older sibling with a male gender, I suppose. Damn, I guess I really did miss a lot of things.River chuckled a bit then drove his wheelchair to his sister's side.I gulped when I witnessed I Ath...

"Good evening, my lady. You look gorgeous like always," I said with a smile when she opened the door."And you are annoying as always," She said then rolled her eyes. "Can I leave this bouquet here? I have a feeling that I might destroy this by slapping you with it out of annoyance.""Harsh. But sure," I took her hand and kissed it. "Shall we go, gorgeous?"She nodded. "Sure."I never knew that 4 kilometers ride is too short for us to stay in car together. Damn the time."Quel, do you know me?" She asked out of nowhere.My forehead creased. "What do you mean? Of course, I know you, Athijha.""What if my name is not really Athijha? What if it is Clea?" She joked then chuckled a bit. "Don't get me wrong, okay? What if I am just her copycat and the real one just happened to tell me everything about her life?"I smiled. "Then you copied her perfectly. Your mannerism, the way you frown, your smile, and your laugh. It perfectly matches hers. But I can never forget how her eyes look. That is

It seems like she's havinf the urge to hit me with her bag she held herself back. "Why are you insisting that I am still your wife? You signed the divorce papers back then, Exiquel." She said.I smirked. "Oh, that? I didn't want to let go of you so I retrieved it when you left. Then I burned it together with the copies you prepared."Her jaw dropped upon hearing that. "How dare you put my money and efforts to waste?"I laughed. "Don't worry, wife. I'll give them back to you, twice. Even a million times if you ask. Anything for you," I replied then wiggled my eyebrows."What if I do something unforgivable? Are you still willing to do that?"I chuckled. "I'll always be on your side, little girl," I shuffled her hair."Exiquel," She called my name."Hmm? What is it, wife?" I asked.She took a step forward. "Do you still remember something I do?" She asked then took another step. "To the moon and back?"My eyes widened upon hearing that. My eyes shone with an unreadable emotion that keep

I visited the pavilion I built to commemorate the faded existence of my child.I'll bring Athijha here for some other time.When I got home, I decided to give her a call.[What is your problem, again?] She said as soon as she answered the call."Are you home?" I asked.[And why should you know?] She retorted with sarcasm. "You didn't text me so I got worried. Are you home? I'm heading there," I said, making up reasons just so I can hear her talk.[No, I am not. I just left. And I don't really see any reason why you should know.]"Because I am your husband," I responded in a proud tone, giving her a hint about what I did.She scoffed. [No, you're not.][Yes, I am.] I insisted.[Shut up, Exiquel. We're divorced. Stop insisting we're not separated, you dumbass.]"Or not," I chuckled.[Whatever you say. I gotta go. There is something important I have to do. Something more important than you,] She said then dropped the call.Then she found out about what I did. She kept on ranting about h

I felt how she got frozen on the spot when I planted a soft kiss on her forehead. I smiled at the back of my mind.I missed doing that."You're being considerate of my feelings too much again. I can handle myself, you know. Go on, love. Sleep now. I'll leave you here alone now. Goodnight, my love."I was wakened by terrified screams from the other room.Chill washed through my body when I realized it was my wife."No, son, no! No," She screamed."Athijha," I called in panic. She's still asleep and covered with sweat as she cries in her sleep."Fuck! Athijha, wake up!"She gasped for air then opened her eyes widely.She touched her cheeks and then brushed the tears away as I cup her face."Fuck! Are you okay, love?"She looked at me who's looking at her with my eyes filled with fear and nervousness.She held onto my wrist then tilted her head. "Quel," she called my name."Yes, love? What is it?

She went out if the car and was about to guide me out but she doesn't really have to do that anymore. I jumped out on my own."It's okay, Jha. I am not drunk anymore," I flashed a smile. "You're back in here again."She nodded a little. She may not be aware of this but the way she acts while looking at the place that's used to be her home says how uncomfortable she is."You should take my car on your way home. It's dangerous," I said."No, thanks," She declined."Athijha.""No matter how much you put authority and warning in your voice, you can't order me to use this since I left my friend's car at the parking lot of the restuarant in front of the club where you drowned yourself."I took a remote out of my pants. "Then might as well spend the night here instead of going home at this hour."I walked in and didn't even dare to look back because I know that she'll choose to walk away and go with the first option I had given her.As I shower in the bathroom of her old room, my feet felt c
