"Do you blame yourself for why that girl was imprisoned? Well, she surrendered willingly-” "And I'm the reason why she turned herself in to the police, Hen." Staying outside of the police station, I did not move to pass through my car on the other side of the road. "I was guilty because... I was also the reason why she committed that sin. My idea is to blame Imelda for the food poisoning that will happen to Tanya. In return for giving her restaurant a bad reputation, Dianne did that." "All because of me!" It was as if my legs suddenly felt weak, I lost the strength to stay standing. "I am the reason why she committed a crime. And now... I'm the reason why she's giving up on herself. Where on Earth could I find peace of mind now?!” I was so upset and with the weight of what I was carrying, I washed my hands from my face and wiped away the tears by myself. While Hen joined me sitting like crazy outside the station while his other arm tried to comfort the hopeless me. "Kris, don't loo
"Why do I still look wrong here? Why am I still bad? Always in your eyes, I haven't done anything right-" "Do you think it's right to insult a person who’s older than you?!" I don't want to raise my voice at her because I know I would just hurt her feelings by making her realize her mistakes, otherwise I don't want to condone her. "I'm going to react to what you did because of insulting your father, and that’s bad! And for not showing them some respect is something I can't tolerate!" "But the reason why I was becoming rude to that guy... isn't that valid, ma?" Even though she hasn't recovered properly, Audrey is already making me cry. "How I became rude to him... is all because of you! I'm just protecting you and myself because he's a bad person, ma! He hurt you before. For causing you violence before, how could I be able to see him becoming a good father to me?!” “Dear… how did you know?” I don't remember when I told her my experience before. That experience is so unpleasant to
"You're still under the company's name, and even the music and the MV you're going to make, it's still going to fall with Aether. That's my concern, Tanya." "Miss G..." Her sudden laugh was random. "We will go through making them cute if they suddenly become tigers." “Aether's strength is its artists, and so its weakness. When their artists disappear, the company is also closed and they won't make any more money. And I know they don't want that." With the kind of behavior Tanya has, I admit that I get a headache from her being cunning. But still, it does something... essential. ***** I'm on my way home today to get some clothes that Audrey will need at the hospital. It looks like it will take up to a week for her to heal there, and my daughter who doesn't change her clothes won't agree. *phone rings* On the passenger's seat, almost next to the door, my cellphone was ringing. I can't reach it since I'm driving and my hands are short. When I checked the caller, it was Audrey calli
"About you... not being the real father of her baby." My jaw clenched with anger, and I also felt in my fists that I wanted to punch. "You lied to me, Henrix! Even the wedding... that's... that's actually not true?! You just let it be known that you're getting married?! Did... Why?!" "Kris... I'm not lying-" "Maui has confessed to me-" "You don't understand!" He tried everything he could to reach my body, and when he did, he didn't let go of my hands he was holding. "When did I tell you that I am the father of her baby? Did I take on Maui's daughter? Have I told you she's my responsibility?" "And the wedding, Kris... I didn't say I was going to marry her. Nothing like that, okay?" His lips touched my hand held by Hen. "It's not like... I'm lying to you. Because what happened, Kris... you believed with the things your eyes have seen and your mind has been thinking." "You thought I had a child with Maui for reasons I don't know. And you also think I'm planning to marry her, because
The face of the man caught by the police is almost swollen due to the punches and blows he receives. He doesn't even want to talk to the police so... he is subjected to violence. "That's enough, chief," when my eyes couldn't take the torture anymore, I stopped the policeman from hitting the criminal with a stick. "If he really doesn't want to admit it, let him. Maybe we should just give him a few days to think about working with us." "Are you sure about this?" Henrix asked. "It's better to settle the case as soon as possible, Kris. It's only a matter of time before that man surrenders. Just one more hit." "Not anymore, Hen-" "I'm going to speak," we heard the criminal's voice. "Just send a dentist here. I think my jaw will be removed." "Yes, as long as you tell the truth first!" The police kicked the criminal's chair closer to us. "Come on!" "I... I'm one of those who was ordered by Ma'am Imelda to... uhh... burn down your house." So, Jessica is really telling me the truth when
"What is my daughter going to do on the rooftop of the hospital? Are you kidding me, Liam?!" He handed me a small piece of paper that said; Come on up here, mom. On the rooftop. "Isn't that Audrey's letter?" When I realized that Liam wasn't really cheating on me, I hurried to take the elevator. Maybe later that child will jump over there, knowing that we were not on good terms when we talked in the past. Gosh, please don't. "If Audrey jumps in there, she won't let you go there," I heard Liam say. He came with me. "Because when you were there, she was expecting you to stop her from doing what she intended to do. So... I'm sure... she didn't have any plans like that." "Are you a mind reader?" I don't care what I say. "Or maybe it's just too obvious on my face that I'm worried... or scared?" Maybe the emotions I feel are mixed. Even my thoughts are no longer well-organized. The car used by Imelda added to my thoughts... that is probably mine. Then it's Audrey, I'm still worried. "
"When I'm old, as I said, I want everything to be in order before doing things like that. Because I... I don't want happiness to come first and then be followed by tragedy. I want everything to be in order first, so that I'm sure... finally... I can give Hen an answer." Because truth be told, nothing in my plan was rejected. I've been waiting for a long time for my relationship with him to become real. He may not actually... told me directly that he loves me... or perhaps he learned to love me, whatever the reason he has for giving me his love, but it's okay that he doesn't tell me anything. I have five senses, enough for me to feel something that his mouth can't say yet. "I'm happy for you," he said, sincerely. There was no bitterness or anything else on his face. As if, he is really sincere. "Despite knowing the fact that you're my wife... and actually, I'm still your husband until now... on paper... but if my attempt to pursue you will ruin your happiness, I won't just do it." Th
#TheFinalBattleOfTheBattered "But don't be mad at me, fool!" I felt one of her hands on the end of my hair and pulled it down. "It also seems impossible to attract him to love me." Re-registering in my memory that day Lucile and I met at the bar. When she left me because her boyfriend had come... and the exact day as well, I formulated my hypothesis that Lucile might be the other woman since I saw a man in a lab coat pleading on the second floor at that time. "Is Henrix the one who you refer to as your longtime boyfriend?" With a little, weak voice coming out of my mouth, while Lucile's elbow was still choking me, surprisingly that I'd still be able to talk. "Well... I just said he's my boyfriend to give you another reason to overthink," she perhaps never gets tired of laughing while talking. "The flowers, chocolates and a small box that Audrey has seen in his car, I actually put them there. Just to make the show realistic." "And I also gave the idea to Maui, his ex, that Henrix
