pourings right. I really look like Sky," I said, smiling as I looked at the pictures. I browsed through the images and videos, and I couldn't help but smile. "How did you know Mom told you that?" Bettina asked, chuckling softly. "Mom showed me a few times in my dreams. Maybe that's what happens when you're on the brink of death," I said with a shrug. I felt happy that I could still connect with my mother in that way. Even if it was just in dreams, it felt right. I tried to be strong until, three days later, I finally left the hospital. Since I woke up, I've been searching for Dad, but I haven't seen him. Bettina told me that Dad visited me every day while I was unconscious. I want to talk to him. I'm grateful for the second chance at life that I've been given, and I want to tell Dad that I have forgiven him. Holding onto hate will serve no purpose. Now that my daughter and I are together, I want to create a good, drama-free environment for her. All I want is a peaceful li

Just then, Brandon returned and said, "Girls, is it okay if I leave you two for a while? I have an urgent meeting to attend." We turned to him together. "Oh, yeah, sure. So, you won’t be with us for lunch?" I asked him. He nodded and shrugged his shoulders. "Yes, I guess," he replied. I took a deep breath and nodded at him again. Brandon turned to us and gently held Sky's head. "Behave, okay? Don’t stress out your mom," he told Sky. "Okay, Papa! I’ll behave!" Sky replied. Brandon nodded and looked at me again, prompting me to get up from my seat. "Don’t worry about us. I’m just going to agree with Margot. They are at the mall with her kids, and it’s time for Sky to meet her cousins," I explained. "Alright. Just call me if you need anything. I have to go for now," he said. After Brandon left, I immediately called Margot. She arranged for her driver to pick us up from the park, and thankfully, the mall wasn’t far away. Sky and I waited just a few minutes, and s

Tosmiled and tightened my grip on her. I couldn't forgive myself for anything that went wrong with her because of me. We released our embrace just as the bedroom door opened. We turned and saw Brandon enter. “Papa!” Sky called out. Brandon walked toward us, handed me a bottle of water, and smiled at Sky. “How are you?” he asked. “I feel better, Papa. I’m sorry for eating ice cream. I really wanted to know what it tastes like,” she explained. I watched as she spoke to her dad, her friendly demeanor shining through. Brandon sat on the other side of Sky and gently caressed her head. "It's okay, baby. Just don’t do it again, alright?" he said. He handed her some fruit, which she eagerly began to eat. Brandon and I exchanged glances, and I smiled at him. “I met your boyfriend, and he’s waiting for you outside. You can go now; let me take care of Sky,” he said. I furrowed my brow slightly. His mention of a boyfriend puzzled me. Then I remembered River, and a smile almost

I shrugged again. "Why not? Your relationship has been going on for a long time, and it's been five years since-" I stopped when he suddenly interrupted me. "Z, George and I didn't get back together. In these five years, no one has intervened between us," he explained. I hesitated to respond, unsure of whether to believe him. What if he was just denying it? "But she said that you two got back together," I insisted, feeling a slight twitch in my forehead. "You called George crazy, so why do you believe what she says?" he challenged. I took a deep breath, feeling exhausted. It seemed George wasn't just crazy; she was also delusional. "So, let's get back to you. When are you planning to settle down?" he asked. I laughed. "Me? Why is that question coming my way?" I replied. "Because why not? The river looks good, and what about your boyfriend?" he said, then glanced away. I nearly spilled my drink at his comment. Why did he think River was my boyfriend? "Come on

I turned again to go inside, but he stopped me once more. "Did you really move on from me?" he asked. My heart raced at his question. I felt speechless, and to my surprise, I realized that I hadn’t really moved on from him. He stepped closer and grabbed my elbow as he stared into my eyes. I stopped when I felt the cold wall behind me. "Do you still love me, Z?" he asked. I could almost feel the warmth of his breath on my face, mingled with the scent of the wine he had been drinking. I just stared back at him, my heartbeat quickening; I feared he might hear it. "If you asked me that question, my answer is no because I never moved on from you. Even though I thought you were gone, my love for you didn’t fade. You remained in my heart because I promised myself that you would be the last woman I ever loved. Now that you are back in my life, my love for you has only grown," he said. I could see the seriousness in his eyes as he spoke those words. I swallowed hard when he gently

"Meeting adjourned. Thank you, everyone!" Daddy said. I could finally breathe freely; our meeting was over. I immediately turned to River, who had been teasing me earlier. "I know what you were doing," I said to him. He raised both hands as if to defend himself. "I just wanted to see his reaction. He's been staring at you since our meeting started," he explained. I stared at him, unsure of how to feel. I didn't know if that would affect Brandon significantly since we had no relationship. I left River in his chair as someone approached him to talk. All our companions said their goodbyes. Some were still chatting, while others began to leave. I noticed Brandon, in my peripheral vision, engaged in conversation with someone, so I took the opportunity to approach Daddy. "Z, are you surprised?" he asked with a smile. "Surprised by what?" I replied, my forehead wrinkling in confusion. Daddy laughed and pulled me in for a hug. "About Brandon. I'm sorry I didn't tell you, but when you

I stopped eating and barely pushed my food away as I picked up my laptop again. "You haven't finished your food yet," he said. "I'm already full," I replied, even though I'd just lost my appetite. "You just ate a little bit. How can you be so satisfied?" he asked. Annoyed, I turned to face him. "I already told you that I'm not hungry. Next time, please don’t buy me lunch. I was hoping you wouldn't get me anything to eat either because I have a secretary for that. You should give all your attention to that girl who was talking to you earlier," I told him. His laughter filled the room, overwhelming me again. I knew I wouldn't be able to focus on my work if I stayed there with him, so I closed my laptop and placed it on the table. "Oh, why?" he asked. I ignored him and stood up from my chair. "Are you jealous?" he probed. I smirked, returning his question with one of my own. "Of course not. Why would I be?" I replied, then let out a sarcastic laugh. If he was trying to push

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

"I was just hurt because I felt like you hadn't lost your love for that woman—" I cut her off because I didn’t have time to listen to her excuses. "I came here to tell you that the Del Real family is continuing the case against you. So if you need help, it's not from me," I told her. "No! You’re going to help me, aren’t you? You’re not going to leave me here, right, Brandon?" she insisted. I shook my head and looked straight at her. "You traumatized my daughter, and you almost killed her. Do you really think I would help you again? If you hadn’t done that, you wouldn’t be in this position. Now, you need to face the consequences. You’ve made your own fate," I replied. I stood up from my seat and turned to leave. Even though I could hear her calling my name over and over, I ignored her. For five years, George and I had a strong friendship. She had always been there to help me with Sky, but when Z returned, her behavior changed. I didn’t understand her jealousy, especially s

I didn't even look at Brandon because I was in a hurry to go inside. I'm not afraid if they can catch me there because I can fight with them. Even though I heard Brandon repeatedly calling me, I ignored him. I turned around the whole house until I saw a ladder, which looked like the only way to climb there. I took a deep breath and prepared myself. The hallway above was spacious, and there were four rooms,, so I didn't know where George was, but I could hear the kid crying. A door opened, and I almost rushed to the side when I saw a man. I stood on the edge of the wall so he couldn't see me, and as he passed in front of me,, I kicked him with my foot. The man was shocked, and he immediately attacked me, but I fought back against him. His body is so big that his energy is more potent than mine. "Ahh!" I cried as he kicked me in the stomach. I could almost hold my stomach while I was in pain. Before I could recover, he kicked me again, causing me to fall down. I was al
