Jewel and Cain quickly finished their meal because none of them spoke. They are now on the sofa and sitting side by side, Cain continues to watch tv while Jewel is holding her phone as if it were flashing. "Did you tell Calliyah everything?" Cain asked suddenly. "Yes, she knows I'm here in Canada and I'm with you, she wanted to come here but she couldn't because Dark is always with her," "Dark has no plans of letting your friend go." He laughing"Because your friend is stupid. He will hurt my best friend and then chase her." I said. "But look at them now, they got back together," She just shrugged his shoulders and continued what he was doing, later he also watched tv. As they focused on watching tv, Cain's phone suddenly rang, he immediately got it and looked at who the caller was. Jewel saw the young man look at her and she raised her eyebrow at him. "Dark, why did you call?" Cain suddenly spoke. Jewel immediately turned her gaze to him when she heard the caller's name. "
The young man Cain happily returned to the condo unit because besides buying medicine, he found a stuffed toy and bought it to give to his friend Jewel because it is one of her favorites. When he arrived at the unit, he first put down the girl's stuffed toy and went straight to the kitchen to prepare soup for the girl so that she could eat it before taking the medicine. He didn't last long because he just bought ready-to-cook soup. When it had boiled he quickly transferred it to a bowl and placed it on the tray along with a glass of pineapple juice and medicine. He slowly brought it to the girl's room because they did not know if it was awake or asleep. When he arrived at the room, he first laid the tray containing food and medicine on the small table. "Jew is awake, I prepared a soup for you to eat first before taking medicine to fill your stomach," he said while sitting on the bed. But he never heard any response from it. He moved a little further to reach it when he noticed som
Monique POV I've been calling Cain how many times but he is not answering it. I thought we would have our lunch together with his friend but he is not answering my calls. Monique was so bored in her office that she wanted to go on a food trip because she had been busy lately and only now did she have time again. As she was arranging sales reports for this month when her phone suddenly rang, she looked at it and saw Cain was the caller. "Hey, Cain! I've been calling you multiple times," she exclaimed after answering the call. "I'm sorry Nique, I rushed Jewel to the hospital that's why I wasn't available to answer your call," Cain explained on another line. "Why? What happened?" She asked. "I don't know what happened yet, I just saw Jewel unconscious when I got back to our condo." He said. "I'm coming over there, send me the address. Okay?" "Alright!" he said as the call went down. After a few minutes, my phone beeped and I received a message from Cain containing the address o
A few days later when Jewel's condition improved, this is also the day when she can leave the hospital and go home. During the few days, she stayed there she was often with Monique, and they also became close. She also stayed in the hospital for almost three weeks to make sure that her baby and I were okay and in those days her friend Cain was ignoring her. She also tried to talk to him a few times but she was just like air to the young man. "Did you fix your things?" Cain asked. "Yes, I already did." She answered. "Good, let's go.," Jewel could do nothing but just follow him, she has been used to him treating her like this since the incident happened to her.We had a quick trip and now we are here in the condo where we live. FAST FORWARD... It's been two weeks since Jewel got out of the hospital, but he still ignoring her. She did everything just to talk to him but the young man always made excuses. She tried everything to approach him but it still looks like he is angry with h
Cain POV I was as if I woke up from a deep sleep because of what Monique told me, I wanted to help and understand Jewel so that she wouldn't feel alone but I added to her problem. And now that I was talking to her, she remained bent over and not looking at me. She had been like this since I came home one day and she cooked food for me as a peace offering but I refused it and said I was full because I had finished eating.After that incident I noticed that she is starting to distance herself from me, I often saw her looking at me but she is always silent even Monique also noticed it. So I decided to talk to her so that we could get along. I don't want to go back to the Philippines and leave her here because we have a misunderstanding. I don't want to add to her stress because that will affect her and the baby. "Jew," I began and she immediately looked at me but only for a moment. "Can we talk? I know we have a misunderstanding. I don't want to prolong this." I added. She immediatel
Three days passed quickly, Jewel and Monique are now at the airport because this is the day Cain will leave and go back to the Philippines. At first, the young man didn't want the two to take him to the airport but Jewel insisted so in the end he didn't do anything but agree. "So, this is it! I'll leave you two for a while, I need to go back to work. Don't miss me too much," He said while facing the two women. Monique only has a palm on her face because of the young man's windiness. "Please, stop being so full of yourself, Cain." She said. "Com'on, I know you'll miss me," He said. The girl just stared at him and turned to Jewel. "Say goodbye to that jerk already so that he can leave," Cain just laughed because of the girl's attitude, he walked closer to his friend. "Be safe always Jew, take care of the baby. Always update me from time to time," "Don't worry about me and the baby Cain. We'll both be careful and focus on the things you need to fix in the Philippines," The three of
The days passed quickly and now Jewel is now extra careful in everything she does because she knows she will give birth anytime. She is often in the condo and doesn't go out much because it is difficult for her to walk and she also gets tired quickly. In the past few months, Monique has been always with her, and they have become even closer to each other, and sometimes the girl sleeps in her unit. While Cain, on the other hand, still managed to call every day to make sure that she is okay. And also for the past months, Monique and Cain became a couple.Jewel is now here on the terrace of her unit, she often walks here to breathe fresh air. As she looked at the huge buildings when she suddenly felt that her stomach ached, she quickly sat in the chair but as time went on she was in excruciating pain until she felt like there was liquid dripping down her thigh. She cried out in extreme pain and didn't know what to do. Monique POV As the elevator opened I quickly went out and excitedly
4 Years Later ... A young woman was now descending the plane, followed behind her by another woman holding a cute little boy in her left hand."Jew, hurry up, Cain is very excited as if he hadn't been with us for a long time, he just came home here two weeks ago,"Monique's complaint. "Don't be in a hurry Nic, if I know you just miss Cain," She is teasing her friend. The girl just started her and continued walking. The decision to go back to the Philippines was not easy for Jewel, and if it wasn't for Cain's insistence, especially Calleigh, her best friend, she wouldn't have agreed to go back. "Mom, are we now in the Philippines?" the little boy asked. "Yes baby, you will see your papa ninong and tita ninang already and also your grandma and grandpa." Jewel smiled back at the child. Her son is only three years old but you can see that he is smart, he is also straightforward when he speaks, and he knows how to speak Tagalog. If you look closely at him it is undeniable that he has
Today is the day of Thunder and Jewel's funeral, it took only five days because their parents don't want to spend more time and everyone understands that because it's not easy to lose a loved one. Nothing hurts more than a mother and father burying their own children. Since the couple died it has had a huge impact on their eldest son Storm, he is often quiet and they only see him crying when he is in his parents ’room. For five days Storm did not leave the coffins of the two, he always sat there next to them and watched his father and mother sleep peacefully. The couple's friends knew that it would be difficult for Storm to accept what had happened especially since he was close to his parents, unlike his youngest sister Kiara who was still young and did not yet know what was going on. And now they are together to take the two to their final destination. All you can hear around you are people's cries because of the grief and pain that their family is feeling. Their other relatives we
When they had finished eating, Thunder arranged their belongings to be taken to the car. They will not go to another country but only here in the Philippines to a resort where their parents gave them a gift so that they can have time with each other. At first, they didn't want to accept it because they didn't need it anymore a few times they were left alone and sometimes with their children but Jewel's mommy insisted so at the end they agreed. "We will leave you first and maybe when we come back we are already there." Thunder joked that they all did. Jewel immediately hit him. "You thought it was easy, try to give birth so you can experience it." They said goodbye to their parents and friends, the latter to their son. "Be a good boy Storm help your grandma and grandpa okay? Sometimes your aunts and uncles are here. We'll only be gone for 3 days." Jewel said to her son. "Yes Mom, no need to worry. I know my limitations. And I'm already a big boy." he answered. "You'll take care o
It's been a year since Thunder and Jewel were blessed with a new child. Their family became even happier. It has been three weeks since they returned to the Philippines because they stayed in New York for almost a year. After all, Thunder wanted to spend time with his family and his wife did not object. They are very grateful because for a year no problem came to them or no one tried to ruin them again, except for the occasional quarrel or fight that is normal in a couple. And today is their wedding anniversary but they can't celebrate it today because they are leaving tomorrow. After all, their parents gave them a gift so they can have time with each other. They want to include their two children, but their friends stop them. Unbeknownst to the couple, their friends were already at their house to prepare a surprise for them. They are not at home yet so they do not know their plans, because they left for groceries.Jewel is currently in the car because they just finished shopping w
Jewel's due date has arrived so Thunder is more focused on it, what he feels now is so much emotion because his child will be coming out these days so almost everyone is excited. Thunder is now on the sofa reading the documents handed to him by his secretary. He no longer goes to the office because of his wife.While he was reading he heard a loud shout coming from their room so he quickly got up and went to their room because his wife was there. When he entered the room he could not see Jewel so he went straight to the bathroom and saw her writhing in pain. "What happened hon?" he asked. "I-I think I'm going to give birth!" she said crying, "What? As in now?" Thunder asked further. "Damn you! I'm going to give birth so take me to the hospital you idiot!" Jewel shouted. It was only then that Thunder realized what Jewel said and quickly picked up his wife, the confusion was still obvious, and Jewel felt his trembling. When they got down, it was good and their driver was also there,
Thunder POV We spent almost a week in Baguio and as my wife told me she wanted Marga to help now so what we did the other day was we also sent her parents here. They could not believe that they would be able to see their daughter again who they thought was dead. They also talked about Marga coming back with them and she also asked for a favor to include Granny with them because she said she no longer has a family they did not hesitate to agree because they are very indebted to Nanang in fostering their child. And if you ask what happened to Jewel and me, you can tell if we are okay again even though she is often naughty or hot-tempered and I understand that because she is pregnant. And now her things are in order because this is the day we will go home. I put the things in the car to get them ready while Jewel was happily talking to Granny and Marga, the next day they were leaving because they still had things to fix. Granny was going to sell her house here but Marga's parents said
Thunder POV I can feel my wife’s resentment with every word she utters, but it's okay for her to express all her thoughts to me. I'm happy that she finally agreed that we can talk so that after that we will be fine. "Oh, why are you silent? You're annoying me!" she said and at the same time staring at me. I don’t understand this habit of my wife now. I don’t see her as the former Jewel and I see her now as a brave and resilient woman. "I don't have anything more to say, I've already explained everything to you." "Oh you mean it’s my fault now?" I was just shaken, I needed a lot of patience. "Oh, what happened then? Where's your other woman?" she added. I raised an eyebrow at her. "What woman are you talking about? If I have a woman it's only you! And if you're asking about Jhazzy, I don't know the last time we talked when I confronted herI didn't imprison her for the sake of his son and Dane pleaded also. " I answered her. "Dane? As in Brother Dane, who is your cousin?"I nodd
Jewel POV I quickly entered the room after I turned my back on Thunder, the truth is that I was shocked here. I’m not angry at what Marga did knowing that she was just thinking about me because she often sees me crying. I just don’t know how to talk to my husband because until now the pain is still here. Yes, I know he has a point because I didn't ask him first but he can't blame me because if he was in my place he might do the same. I miss my son but I can't face him in this situation with his daddy. And I don't want him to be affected either. As I sat on my bed I heard a knock and Granny entered. "Jewel, can we talk?" She asked. I nodded in response and sat up. "I know that he is your husband, he left already. I'm not interfering but shouldn't you be talking properly?" She said. "It's not that I don't want to talk to him but it still hurts because of what happened to us." I honestly said. "Pain is part of love. Are you hurt by what you found out? Are you hurt by what's happen
Margaux POV Kuya Thunder and I are here now outside the gate. I'm nervous that Ate Jewel might be angry with me but I can't do anything because we're here now. I just hope my interference doesn't hurt them. I went in first and left Kuya outside to wait for my signal. It was as if Granny and Jewel were sitting in the living room. "Oh Marga, you're here. I thought you'd come home late." Granny said. " I just went somewhere. The truth is that I have someone with me now." I said. "Who? Is he your boyfriend?" Ate Jewel teases me if you only knew that your husband was there. "Where? Why don't you let your visitor in?" Granny said."Yes, wait and I'll call him." embarrassed I nodded and walked back outside. I saw Kuya Thunder just silent while waiting for me."Let's go in," I said to him. He nodded and we entered at the same time, I could still hear the laughter of the two inside so I was even more nervous. "Jewel, Granny, he's already here." I get the attention of them both. Jewel'
Margaux POV I was just standing here on the veranda side where big sister Jewel was sitting, I could see the sadness and longing on her face. Often she is just like this every day or maybe just in the room. I can’t see the happy woman I know. I don't know if I'm going to do it right even though I said before that I didn't want Jewel to take the lead in her decision, but from what I can see, it looks like she needs Kuya Thunder by her side.The other day I took his number from Ate Jewel's phone when I borrowed it and I said I would text my friend because I don’t have a load but the truth is I just took her husband's number so that I could talk to him easily. I know it will surprise him when he finds out I'm still alive but that's not what matters right now if it wasn't for Jewel. I went back to my room and picked up my phone. I will call Kuya Thunder to let him know where Ate is, they need to be able to talk so they can get along. I stared at my phone a few more times before pressing
