Two Hearts Victim of Lies Chapter 21
Like I said, I don't have time for Karylle, so I left her there. What does she think of herself for me to follow her order to stay away from Brandon? I can't help but laugh in my head when I think about her reaction when she finds out that I got Brandon ahead of her.It took me a long time at the counter because I bought so many groceries, but it was worth it because I will have stocks of food at home even if I'm there alone. I'm also planning to buy a TV so I can put it in my room, but I'll just go to the mall tomorrow to look for it.After I finished at the grocery store, I went to the cafe to buy my lunch there. I was about to eat there, but I remembered that I had bought some ice cream. I need to put it in the freezer right away so it doesn't melt.I think I got home at one o'clock, and I was starving; that's why I ate right away before I continued fixing the food I bought. I just watched it on my iPad while eating for fun, and when I finished, I washed the dishes I used.My hand

I smiled while looking at the table set up. I also put a candle there to make the presentation more beautiful. I wasn't sure if Brandon would like it, but I'm glad I did. I even wanted to put flowers on it, but I didn't buy anything outside earlier.I took my phone and took a picture. I'm very proud of myself right now because I've only done something like this in my whole life. It's fun and satisfying to feel like you're making an effort, especially when you know what you're doing is special. I can't wait for Brandon to get here.I just covered the food on the table for a while and went up to the bedroom to get dressed in a nice dress. Maybe it's not obvious that I prepared too much for Brandon's and my dinner tonight, huh?After I finished dressing and fixing myself, I went downstairs again, but my eyes almost widened when I saw Brandon was there in the living room. He was sitting and holding a flower; when he saw me, he immediately stood up. I smiled big and quickly walked towards

A few moments later, Brandon came up to my room, which is why I looked at him with a frown. He went straight to his bag that I placed on the sofa in my room."Why did it take you so long? There are only a few dirty plates?" I asked him.He just looked at me while taking something from his bag before speaking."I even locked the doors, and the gate. Before you come here to your room you should make sure you have locked the gate," he said.I remained sitting on the end of my bed, and just laughed a little."I haven't locked the gate since I came here. No one has tried to enter here either, so that's fine," I explained to him.His shoulders almost slumped as if he got tired of telling me so I just raised an eyebrow at him."Right now, yes. No one is really coming in, but what if someone suddenly comes in here? You shouldn't be too complacent in this place, Z. We can't guarantee that no one will come in here, especially if someone knows that you're always alone here ," he said one after t

The next day I just woke up with a lot of pain in my middle. Brandon and I had so much going on last night, and thinking about it almost makes my cheeks heat up. We made a lot of noise here last night, and I'm really thankful that we don't have neighbors to hear our every moan.I just woke up without Brandon by my side, so I immediately looked at the sofa in my room to see if his things were still there. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that it was still there. Only half of my body was able to get up while I was wrapped in my thick comforter. I can feel that I'm still naked; the only thing I'm wearing is my underwear.I took a deep breath and forced myself to get up, only to see the door of my room open. I saw Brandon there, and he was carrying a bed tray with food on it. My lips parted as he came closer to me."Stay there," he said.He put the tray on the side of my bed for a while, and he gave me some clothes, so I immediately put them on when I finally got up from lying down.

Brandon drove me back to my car that night. He didn't come with me because tomorrow is Monday and we have class again. That's okay because he can't sleep with me all the time.The next day I woke up early because of my alarm. My class was still at eight a.m. But I woke up at six in the morning. I quickly showered and dressed myself before going downstairs.When I went down to the living room, I found the door of the house open, so I frowned and looked at it. I also heard that someone was cooking in the kitchen, so I immediately went there, expecting to see Brandon, but I saw Manang Gina cooking there."Good morning, Z. How was your weekend?" Manang Gina asked me, smiling.I also smiled and started to make my coffee."Good morning, Manang. My weekend was fine. How about you? It looks like you had a lot of work yesterday," I said to her."Ah yes, but we're taking a break today. Tomorrow is work again, so I might not be able to pass by here tomorrow," she said.I was surprised, because s

My clothes were still a mess, and it was so dirty that I had to go back to the parking lot where my car was to change clothes. Fortunately, I always carry extra clothes in my car! Otherwise I might go to class with dirty clothes!I was nervous while walking to our classroom. I'm thirty minutes late, but I'm going in anyway, because I don't want to miss a topic. If I can pursue the discussion, I will do so as long as I am not absent from that subject.Mrs. Marquez turned her back to me because he was busy writing on the whiteboard, so I took advantage of it immediately so she didn't notice that I was late, but I didn't even sit next to Brandon when she turned in front of the class and saw me. My chest fluttered as the two of us looked at each other. I know Mrs. Marquez, of all the professors here, is the most strict, so she thinks it's just scary."Miss Del Real!" I was almost blown away when I heard her voice calling my last name.All of my classmates immediately looked at me, so I w

"Oh my gosh, girls! Look who's here!"Kyla and I were looking at the sides when we heard a voice. I saw Karylle's group again, and this time she was with boys who were their friends. My eyes almost rolled up, and I avoided looking at them to continue my meal. I also noticed Kyla's face that she had a trace of fear that I felt, so I took a deep breath before speaking."Just don't mind them. Just keep eating your food," I told her."A snake and a user. It's a thing for them to be friends."I held the fork tightly. This girl is really getting on my nerves, and I swear, I'm still holding my patience. She had always told me that I had stolen Brandon from her, even in the first place, when they had no relationship. She's so delusional!They passed by our table, and for a moment, they looked at us, but at least I thought I didn't throw them away. They don't even deserve my attention. They sat at a table not far from us; as usual, they were at the table where they were always sitting."Z, aft

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

I was worried about how Mommy would react when I told her that Brandon was my boyfriend. However, when I saw her smiling as she held my hand, I finally felt like I could breathe freely, even before she said anything. She took a deep breath and looked at me intently before speaking. “I support you on this, Z. Even though we've only just met Brandon, I could see how worried he was for you. Even without words, I could feel his love for you,” she told me. I smiled, and unexpectedly, tears started to fall. “After all, you deserve that kind of love. I won’t hinder the things that make you happy,” she continued. “Thank you, Mom,” I replied, my crying intensifying. Mommy and I hugged each other, and even though we hadn’t always shown affection, I could now really feel how much she loved me. After talking to Mommy, she let me speak to Brandon and Addy. I could see the worry in their eyes, but I just smiled to reassure them that I was okay. “How are you feeling?” Brandon asked.

"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
Two Hearts Victim of Lies Chapter 29
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
