Z will found out later that the child whom she thought was dead for a long time, is alive. Brandon, the biological of her child will take their child away from her because he thought that she abandoned them five years ago.
View More"Z!" Brandon leaned down to me, his expression filled with worry."Are you alright?" he asked.I shook my head in response, unable to speak. I grabbed my foot and saw blood oozing from it."F*ck!" Brandon cursed, and without hesitation, he lifted me into his arms like a bride."We need to leave here," he said, moving quickly.Tears streamed down my face as I realized how hard it must have been for him to carry me while we fled from Dante's men. I was terrified for both of us, knowing those men were dangerous and armed.Brandon pressed on, and I could feel his exhaustion until I suddenly heard a familiar voice."Brandon! Z!" It was Bettina.I looked in the direction where they were and realized we were at the house where we were staying."Oh my gosh!" Lexy exclaimed."What happened?! Where are Addy and the others?" I asked, panic rising in my chest."Why aren't you with them, Brandon? Where are th byey?!" My sisters and our friends sounded equally concerned. Looking at them individuall
"Don't even think about escaping, Hijah. You’ll just waste your energy; you can’t get out of here easily," he taunted with a laugh. I kept my gaze fixed on him, allowing my fury to show. He stared back, then gestured to his companions. "Take her to the other room and call Del Real right away. I'm excited to see his reaction when he sees his favorite daughter." Favorite daughter? I couldn’t help but laugh at that, which prompted them to turn and look at me. One of the men seized me and began to drag me away. "Favorite daughter? Are you serious?" I responded sharply. They continued to lead me until we entered another room. It was spacious yet almost empty, containing only a single chair in the center. "You know what? Whoever you are that hates Daddy, you're just wasting your effort and time!" "Stop it!" the man holding me commanded. I looked at him with pleading eyes as he pushed me into the chair. "You stay there," he said, his voice laced with a threat. "What do you really
"I'm really sorry, Babe. I promise I’ll make it up to you," I told Brandon while looking at the Apple Watch he had given me."I said, stop saying sorry. It's not a big deal, okay? Let's just enjoy our trip today," he replied, pulling me closer to him and kissing my forehead.I smiled and nodded. I was actually overwhelmed because it was my first time receiving such an expensive gift. I knew it was costly, but I didn’t mention it to him so we wouldn’t dwell on it.When Janna saw us, we stopped hugging, and she teased us before calling our other friends over.Once my friends had it all arranged, we left the house. We rode in two SUVs and Addy's van. We went ahead, with Bettina's car following us, because Brandon knew the way to our destination."It's safe to leave the car here since no one else is around. We need to walk to get to the falls," Brandon explained as we stopped.We were in the woods, surrounded by many trees. The sun wasn’t too hot, which made the hike to the falls enjoyabl
We all had a fantastic night with drinks and conversations about our lives and futures. Addy also asked Brandon to come to Manila to stay with his dad, but it’s not that simple; they still need to discuss it properly.The next day, we went island hopping and participated in various activities. We took many pictures and posted them on our social media accounts. Our other friends regretted not being there with us.My mom also called to check on us, and I was surprised to see Dad with her. They were the only ones talking, as Dad couldn’t even greet me with a simple “hi.” It doesn’t bother me much because we don’t have a good relationship.The following day, we stayed home since they were heading back to the city early. We gave Brandon and Addy some personal space to bond without us.The long weekend ended quickly, but I was delighted. I’m grateful to have my friends and sister back, and I’m also happy that Brandon and Addy reunited after a long time apart.Once my friends and sister retu
"Z!"We turned to Margot, who had just entered the hotel room as I was called. I couldn’t help but feel nervous and immediately thought of Brandon and Addy’s conversation outside."What happened?" I asked her, genuinely worried.When she smiled, I frowned as I looked at her."You need to come outside," she said, pulling me aside.I had no choice but to follow her, even though I was anxious about what was happening. I hoped that Brandon and Addy wouldn’t hurt each other.We left the hotel, and my friends followed us. My jaw almost dropped when I saw Brandon and Addy. We stopped walking, and my lips fell, but I quickly smiled and breathed a sigh of relief."I think they're okay now," Margot said.Brandon and Addy were standing at the side of the beach, still talking but now laughing. Even though Brandon was facing away from me, I could see the happiness on his face. I breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that they were finally alright.I was glad Brandon had given his brother a chance to
"Don't worry, Ma'am. Your car is safe here," the boatman assured us as we approached the boat, leaving our car behind. Since Brandon knows them, I trust him enough to leave it there."I'm so excited, guys! Maybe I can see my afam!" Lexy joked, which made me roll my eyes."I thought you wanted someone Filipino?" I teased her.The others laughed at my jab, and Margot was busy filming as if she were vlogging, while Bettina took pictures of Jewel and Hannah. I couldn't help but glance at Addy and Brandon, who sat quietly together. I noticed how Addy looked at his twin, but Brandon was avoiding eye contact."Are you alright?" I asked Brandon.As we boarded the boat, my friends continued filming. Brandon remained quiet, not socializing with my sisters or friends, and I sensed that something was bothering him. I could understand, considering his brother was nearby.Brandon took a deep breath and stared out at the beautiful sea scene before responding. "Yeah," he replied, a bit too abruptly.
I almost spilled the juice I was drinking, which made them laugh. "Just kidding!" she said, still chuckling. "But that's possible, right? Addy came with us because he wanted to meet Z, and Z is friends with Brandon," Margot said, shrugging her shoulders. I looked at them, raising an eyebrow as they talked about me as if I wasn’t there, while Addy just laughed at their comments. Once again, I remembered that Addy and I had kissed at the bar, and I wished I could forget it. I had hoped to be with Brandon when I revealed the truth about our relationship, but since something unexpected had happened earlier, I would have to share it alone. "I have something to tell you guys," I said, catching their attention. I glanced at Addy, smiling as I noticed they were all waiting for me to continue. I wiped my mouth and took a deep breath before speaking. "Out of respect for Addy, I need to tell you that Brandon and I are in a relationship. We’ve been dating for two weeks," I announ
A lot of things happened to me this whole week. First, Karylle and I, along with Brandon's other friends, were involved. Second, there were the men who attempted to harm me so badly that Brandon had to accompany me home all week. Third, there's Mrs. Marquez regarding my term paper. She thought I copied it from somewhere else, even though the truth is that I actually did. I can't help but be annoyed anymore because so many things are happening, and I don't want to worry.I can't even believe that Brandon is no longer friends with Kaizer, but his other friends, like Karylle, still notice him, though Karylle still doesn't treat me well, and that's okay with me. I admit that we will never be in the same group. In turn, Kyla has become closer to me, and I can say that she is my friend in this place."Are you alright?" Brandon asked me, noticing my sigh of breath.I smiled at him, and he nodded. I just feel a little bit nervous because my sisters and friends came to visit me here. I don't h
I can't get rid off in my mind about Brandon and Kai's argument earlier. I just tried to get rid of what had happened because I couldn't finish my term paper if that was what I would think about all night. Before twelve o'clock, I stopped doing what I was doing because I was feeling sleepy. The next morning I woke up early, but I still felt sleepy, so I fell asleep again. I just woke up because my phone was ringing because of the call, so even though I was sleepy, I forced myself to get up to answer it."Hello," I replied to the call even though I didn't see who it was. "Z, good morning! I was sending some men there to clean your swimming pool this morning. They might be close there so let them go inside," I heard Manang Gina on the other line. "Oh, okay, Manang. Thanks."I forced myself to get up when I realized that my pool cleaner was coming. I didn't know what time they were going to finish it, and fortunately my class was two o'clock in the afternoon. I went down from my room
How do people learn how to love and trust again after being hurt so many times by their loved ones?I know that emotions are hard to deal with, but we have to face them when they come to us. Hurt is a difficult one, but you have to learn how to handle it as well as any other emotion. You are sad, perhaps angry; you don't want to deal with it, but you have to. And that's how life works...As I stand here while drinking my red wine on either side of the ledge, looking down from twelve stories above the streets of Metro Manila, I can't help but think about suicide.Of course, not my own. I love my life enough to do those things. I can only imagine how they could decide to end their lives. Do they ever regret it? I know we all have our own challenges, but is suicide really the solution?"Zari!"I rolled my eyes when I heard my sister Margot's voice. I know the reason why she is here."I've been looking for you for a while. What are you doing here?" she asked me.I sighed and backed away s...
