I sat on my bed. I mentally shook my head and chuckled a little."What have you been doing, Exiquel?" I asked.The door of the bathroom opened as soon as fired that question. I looked at his direction. I knew he's here.I stood up then stand by the the window, looking at the scenery outside."Why are you doing this now?" I whispered.I faced him. "What are you up to, Exiquel?"He smiled weakly. "Nothing, love.""The last time you did something good to me sent me down further. This is a scheme again, isn't it? You're planning to hurt me again, right?""It's not like that, Athijha," His eyes welled up."Exiquel, if you're planning to make everything a game between hearts again, please stop. Our lives are already at peace. We're finally living in peace. Please, don't ruin it. I know that we're both happy now. That we have grown apart. Just go and be happy with Clea.""Is that how you think my life has been going, love? Clea has a family now...""And mom still ships you with her," I said

"I was dreaming. What was it, love? I can't remember anything. I don't know. Why are my cheeks wet?" I asked absentmindedly.He caressed my cheeks then planted a feathery kiss on my forehead. "It's okay, love. You were crying though. Let's just pretend that it was just a nightmare, okay?""Sounds bothersome," I replied then tilted my head.A thousand volts hit my body as I felt countless butterflies dancing in my stomach like crazy.My eyes widened the moment that I have realized what he's doing.He's gently kissing me.He's fucking kissing me!And it was like my hands have their own life. They traveled from his arms to his nape and his cheeks.I am shamelessly responding to his kisses.My eyelids seemed to be heavy. My cheeks started heating up while staring at his face.I can feel the heat of his palms against my neck and it gave me ticklish sensations I have always been afraid to face yet have been longing to feel for the past one year and eleven months. Nevertheless, I don't want

"At first I thought you really did, but I guess it was just your facade that has changed.""What is that supposed to mean, Exiquel?""What I am saying is, no matter how you try to cover it... or use anything as your defense mechanism... your true self is always leaking," He tilted his head then smiled. "You do not want to lose yourself. The real you... the old part of you... the you that is covered... the current you."I shut my mouth. I was unable to say anything. He's right. He's so fucking right that I want to yell at him so bad. I really hate how he knows me so well. I hate how he always figures out what is running in my mind.I hate it!I hate him!I stared at his eyes then pulled myself together. I looked at him with courage and fierceness. Trying to be so mighty, not wanting to crumble in front of him because of the fact that he just spitted like it is the most obvious thing in the world."What kind of tragedy?" That is what I want to know. "It looks like it was scrapped. There

"I... I didn't mean to break it," I mumbled.Dad threw the watch on my face. It hit my forehead which made me a little dizzy.I spent the night crying in my room while covering my ears. They're at it again.Mom and dad are screaming at each other again, fighting to prove a point that almost makes my ear bleed. Tears are continuously rolling on my cheeks.I flinched when I heard the sound of a vase breaking into pieces.It's always like this. Every night, every time they see each other, they'd just start arguing from the smallest thing until every issue gets involved.They'd start throwing things and painful words to each other like it is the only way to win their stupid war.I hid myself under the comforter and curled like a baby.After almost an hour, they stopped fighting. One of them probably stormed out of the house again or walked out like they're rushing errands again.Money. This family thought me that money runs the world.Sometimes, I would hear my mom say, "I only married yo

Why am I even trying to see what others can see when I have my own eyes?I should head home now too.I was astounded upon seeing such a scene when I was standing behind the gates.Dad pushed mom out the threw her clothes on her face."This is what you want, right? You want to leave this house, right? Ely? Then leave, bitch! Go to your goddamn lover!" He yelled.Mom pulled her hair and screamed. "It's you, Arnold! It's you who wants me out of your fucking house to let your other family here!"I feel like I just turned deaf upon hearing that. Dad has a family other than us."So, I am right," mom said while nodding her head. "You do have another family. How did I know? Ask me how, Arnold!"Dad was just staring at her madly laughing while crying. "You thought I wouldn't find out because I am an idiot you say. Hahaha! Between the two of us, you are the birdbrain! Going on a business trip for a week alone... wasting money on toys for the charity when you can't even buy your son one is such

My heart was throbbing for her.Her tears kept on falling like her eyes were a broken faucet."No one ever said that there's an easy way,When they're closing all their doors,And they don't want you anymore,This sounds funny, but I'll say it anyway,"I brushed her tears away with my thumb. Her cheeks were so cold and delicate. I wonder if she ever felt fragile."Girl, I'll stay," I whispered then pulled her gently.I caressed her hair while her head was resting on my chest. I can still hear her faint sobs but it's gradually fading away. We were in that position until her body relaxed, and now, I am supporting her weight alone.I stared at her tear-stained, sleeping face. She still looks like an angel but something about her really seems off. She's somehow... she's somehow paler than usual.My heart started to race the moment I realized that her body temperature isn't normal. I carried her then ran through the hallway on our way to the infirmary.I sat next to her while she's asleep.

He then started laughing like a psychopath while my mom was barely standing a few feet away from us.I can't see the point why they're doing this. I can't see why they love hurting each other. I wonder, does marriage really work? Or is there really such thing called a family.I bowed my head then started laughing while my tears were falling from my eyes. I can feel my dad looking at me in disgust as his grip on my hair tightened. Argh! I feel like I am going to grow bald.I slowly lifted my head. "Is it fun, dad? Does it satisfy you, dad?" I asked.His face crumpled like paper. Anger and disgust were visible in his eyes. He clicked his tongue angrily then knocked my head on the wall."No!""Shut the fuck up!"My vision started to get blurry. I can feel hot sticky liquid rolling down my cheeks other than my tears. I chuckled at the back of my head when I smelled the scent of blood."No! My son."I can see my mom screaming but I was unable to hear anything. She was tapping my cheeks but

"You're going to marry Cleandra Alonso after college. It's settled."It rang in my head for a couple of times. It's echoing in my ear as I drop my silverware on my plate."Say that again?" I uttered, forcing myself not to stutter.Dad sighed. "An old friend of mine needs help. They helped us when our company is in verge of falling. Now, it's our turn to do the same. You have to marry their daughter Cleandra Alonso. I believe you're friends, am I right?""Yeah, we're friends," I replied. I lifted my gaze and met his eyes. "What if I don't want to marry her?""You'll marry her whether you like it or not, Exiquel," He said while looking at me with a blank expression.I laughed at the back of my mind even though I maintained a blank expression."Okay," I muttered then stood up. "I'm done eating."I turned my back and set them aside even if they're calling my name for several times.I sat by the door of my room then leaned on it."Cleandra," I mumbled. "Why do I have to marry you? Can I ju

"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. So, if you don't want to come wit

"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... Assia pulled her brother in for a hug."Your eye," She mumbled as she hide her face on River's shoulder."You're thinking that I've gone blind, are you?" She nodded in response. "My eyelid was just grazed by a knife. It's just a small cut.""What if you go blind in tge following years because of that?" Assia asked."I'm glad you're still as silly as fuck," River said then let out a burst of a loud laughter. "Good morning, little sis."You're not really hurt, right?""Yeah. I caught a bullet with my leg though.""Well, you're a

"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? Did you had a nightmare?" I asked in a worried manner."Love," She uttered our endearment th

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
