Four hours into the morning, Lana woke up and could not go back to sleep. The young lady smiled and then stared at the perfect face beside her that was now sound asleep as he hugged her tightly. His red and thin lips. She never thought she would experience their kiss. But it happened. In fact, it was more than she had dreamed—more than anyone could have imagined she had experienced. Lana's face quickly warmed as she remembered everything that had happened to them last night. How Andrew claimed her. He made her feel the intense longing and happiness that she knew she would never feel with anyone again. “But our worlds are different. And whether I admit it or not, I have to wake up from this beautiful dream, for in the end I will not be hurt,” the young lady whispered, then stared at the handsome face of the man to whom she gave her virginity. That is true. What happened to them, she knew she would never forget. But she also had to admit to herself that what had happened would no
One month later... “Why did I notice that you weren't watching Andrew's new TV series? The story is good, so you should watch it,” said Mama Cecille one Sunday morning while they were eating breakfast. Lana shrugged her shoulders and then started eating. She also could not understand herself. The truth is that her feelings for the young man have not changed, except that they have intensified. And that started when something happened to them. Andrew turned all her fantasies about him into reality. But she also has to admit that she gets hurt whenever she sees Andrew and his perfectly handsome face, even just on TV. Lana secretly laughed at herself for that. She is a smart woman, but when it comes to love, like everyone else, she is a great fool. And that is something that she couldn't explain—how and why she feels like that? She knew for a fact that what happened between them that night was just a simple one-night stand. Something that is surely very common with Andrew and his wa
"What am I going to do, M-Mama?" Lana suppressed her emotion as she uttered those words. "Who is the child's father?" instead, her aunt questioned her. Lana felt resentment, not anger, in her Mama Cecille's voice. And that is the reason why all the tears that the young lady had been holding back have finally come out. "M-Mama, please," she protested, bursting into tears. "Does he already have a family?" Mama Cecille said, staring straight into her eyes. Lana shook her head. “Why don't you tell him the truth if he doesn't have a family? Will you let that child grow up without knowing his own father? Like your heartless mother did to you? ”Now her Mama Cecille is angry. "Who is the child's father? What is his name?" her aunt asked again after a while. Lana's head remained bowed as she continued to cry. "Answer me, Lana!" Cecille's voice was louder, so intense guilt engulfed the young lady's heart even more. "It's Andrew, Mama!" she replied between tears. Her aunt's eyes widene
Three years later... "Come on, get inside, Andrea. Wait for your Uncle Marius here." That was what Mama Cecille told Andrea. Lana's three-year-old daughter. That was when Andrea turned to Lana. “Mo---"—everything that the little girl was about to say was cut off when a familiar sound of an engine car stopped in front of their house. "Uncle Marius!" Andrea's cheerful cry as she enthusiastically runs towards the gate. Mama Cecille voluntarily followed Andrea. Lana was just smiling while watching them. Everything seems like only yesterday. It seems like only yesterday when she was so scared to confess to her aunt that she was pregnant with Andrea. Now, three years have passed quickly, and really, in her heart, she has no regrets about raising Andrea. Her daughter, in fact, was the result of her long-held fantasy with her father, Andrew Scott. Over time, Andrew’s career as an actor has remained good. In fact, he has won awards many times in recognition of his skill and acting prow
"SAY thank you to your Uncle Marius, Andrea," Lana said to Andrea as they ate ice cream at a store inside the mall. "Thank you, Uncle Marius. Promise, I will take care of her," Andrea said, hugging the new Barbie doll that Marius bought. Lana laughed softly at her daughter's tenderness. There is no denying that Andrea bears a strong resemblance to her father's sister, Samantha. But no one needs to know about that anymore. Her daughter didn't need it anymore. Because, over a long period of time, she did not regret that she kept the child from Andrew. And by doing so, she was able to keep Andrea away from a lot of bad things that could have happened if she had sought support from Andrew back then. So if all of that were to happen again, she would not hesitate to take the same step and decision that she made three years ago. A beautiful smile tore from Marius's lips. "Anytime, sweetheart. Anything for you," he said, pinching Andrea's cheek. Aside from Mama Cecille, Marius is the
"Oh god, you're so wild! It's wonderful, Andrew. Don't stop!" Rhyza's seemingly insane scream as he claimed her forcefully. “Fuck baby, you're the best! Shit! You’re so fucking shit!” she continued, accompanied by his rapid plunge into her slit. Andrew didn't speak; instead, he took one of Rhyza's legs and lifted it. He then proceeded to claim her in a sideways manner. "Say my name; I want you to say it!" he ordered, then suddenly entered his girlfriend's femininity again. Rhyza responded with a scream. Then it was followed by an accented moan that further heated up the intense desire he was feeling. “Ohhh, yes, you are so fucking good; please do it to me harder! Please, harder!” Rhyza said as if she were not satisfied with what he was doing, so the young man felt even more challenged. That was when Andrew changed their position. Kneeling in the middle of the huge bed, the young man went down. And then he grabbed Rhyza's legs and pulled her closer to him. Without a word, Andrew l
"What are you doing here?" recovering from the shock, Lana tried to formalize the tone of her voice, and the young lady succeeded. The young man's thick eyebrows rose at the same time as the re-emergence of a seemingly venomous smile gave her a strange quiver. Quiver that for a long time she had not felt to any man who had attempted to approach her. "Let's not fool each other. I know you know the reason why I'm here, and you also know to yourself that you have a lot of explanations to do with me.” Andrew's words were emphatic. While his eyes had a strange feeling as he stared at her,. Lana quickly avoided the young man's scorching stare at her. "I don't know what you are talking about," she said, looking back at the paper she was reading. Regardless of the rapid throbbing in her chest,. "I have a lot to finish, and I don't have time for things that are not related to my work," she said without looking at the young man who remained standing in front of her working table. “Really?
As Lana said, she filed for half a day that same day. Andrew waited for her despite her pushing him away and saying that they would just meet the man somewhere. "You don't stop until you get what you want? As long as you don't win," she said emphatically and annoyed as they were already in the parking lot of the tall building where she works. Andrew laughed softly. "Is it bad to invite you to come with me since I have a car?" Andrew followed what he said with a weak laugh. Lana did not speak so Andrew continued speaking. "Why did you take a taxi this morning? I saw your car in the garage of your house," he asked. Lana was shocked by what she heard. "You know where I live?" she asked in a tone of disbelief. Andrew shrugged. "I followed you yesterday when I saw you at the mall with your boyfriend and our daughter." Lana noticed the sarcasm in Andrew's tone when he mentioned the word boyfriend. "Marius is not my boyfriend!" she replied, annoyed. Andrew's thick eyebrows rose as a me
Lana's eyes immediately warmed as she looked at a familiar cottage that for almost five years it’s just now that she had seen again. It was at the same resort in Palawan where she and Andrew first met."Are you okay?" then she was stunned when she heard that amuse question from her husband.With tears in her eyes, Lana looked up at her husband.At all times Lana always tries not to be emotional. Especially when it is for her daughter. Because for her, she would not be able to think clearly if she would give in to her emotions.But at that moment, she didn’t know if it was because of the extreme joy she was feeling. Or was it because of all the hardships she went through before she met the man, she loved the most? So, it was as if she feels like she wanted to hug Andrew, bury her face in his wide chest and pour out all her emotions in there?Eventually, her tears seemed to have a mind of their own that spontaneously flow and wet her face.She just let them go.She was very happy. And sh
TWO MONTHS LATERAndrew looked sadly at the still unconscious Lana. Two months after the accident Patricia committed, his girlfriend remained inside the hospital. In the ICU where he waits for the return of the woman he loves, every day.At the thought, he angrily clasped his fist.Patricia is currently in jail, and he has no plans to drop the lawsuit against her. She hurt Lana and it was only right that she pays for the wrong she did to the woman he was going to marry."Sweetheart, come back, Andrea and I really miss you," he whispered while still staring at the glass wall of the ICU.He did not know if this was his karma for all the mistakes he had made before. If only he was the one suffering, that's okay. But because of him, Lana also suffered. And he can't accept that thing.He knew that in Lana's condition now there was no definite time when she is going to wake up. At the thought, the sigh he let out was heavy and then he smiled bitterly when he thought
CRYING while trembling with anger Patricia consumed all the wine in her glass. Then she stare again at the new issue of a magazine with the face of her most hated woman in the world on the cover. None other than Lana.It's been a month since she and Andrew last spoke in his office and just as the young man told her. He has not even renewed his contract with the agency.Patricia sniffed and then wept as she refilled her glass. She knew everything Andrew said was true. She knew she couldn't be angry with the young man no matter what else he did. But she is in so much pain and she can't blame everything on the man for how much she loves him."There's only one person to blame for all this. And that’s you, I hate you! I hate you so much, whore!" her furious shout that referred to Lana then threw the glass she was holding.She wanted to be hysterical, she wanted to kill someone, and she wanted to retaliate right now. That's why her hand seemed to have a mind of i
"I PROMISE," Lana smiled sweetly before caressing the young man's face.That's all and Andrew kissed her. At the same time, Andrew's hand was remained moving and exploring every part and curve of Lana's body.Moments later as Lana’s eyes remained closed, she felt the seemingly gentle caress of something on her body that was causing a strange horror and delicious sensation to her.She opened her eyes and let go of kissing the young man. It was then that she found out that Andrew was holding a rose that the young man was caressing on her nakedness.Lana's heart was filled with heat because of what her boyfriend had done. Then Andrew kissed her again. At that time the flower was no longer in his hand, so she moaned when she felt his manhood gently touched the jewel between her thighs.Lana gasped because of the delicious sensation that the man had brought to her. Then she also did her own exploration of Andrew's body. Until her hands finally moved to his furious manh
"L-LOVE? You love me?" Lana asked incredulously as tears continued to flow down her cheeks.When the young man remained to kneel in front of her then his hands touched her face. "I love you so much Lana," Andrew brought his face close to hers and then kissed her tenderly.The young lady cried even more when she heard that. "R-Really?" when Andrew released her lips.Andrew nodded then stared at her. "If I only knew that it feels so good to let you know how I really feel for you, I would have confessed to you sooner. I'm so sorry if I made you wait to hear what you need to hear," she felt in the young man the sincerity of his words that filled Lana’s heart with great happiness even more."I love you too Andrew, I love you so much. You and Andrea are my world now," she would tell the truth and then caressed the face and hair of the man she loved.The young man nodded in succession. "I will give everything I have just to make you happy. I will do everything just t
IT WAS six o'clock in the evening when Andrew and Samantha finished. Exhausted, the young man decided to spend the night in the condo unit because it was closer to Scott's branch where he came from. The young man was just getting in his car when he heard his phone ring. Samantha came home first and was just picked up by their family driver.Andrew immediately smiled when he read whose name was registered on his phone screen. He felt as if all the tiredness he was feeling had suddenly disappeared, so he didn't wait for it and hurriedly answered the call.*****A BEAUTIFUL smile broke from Lana's lips after that conversation with Andrew. The young lady remained to stare at the beautiful white lace curtain she had placed on the four poster-bed in Andrew's penthouse.She knew Andrew would like that and she couldn’t wait for a possible reaction from him.Lana quietly arranged the two wine glasses in the center of the coffee table. She didn’t know why she was doing this
Lana shook her head and let out a deep sigh at what the woman in front of her said. And as much as possible, she didn’t want to lose her composure because of this. It was okay to be kind, but this time, and from the contour of the woman's tongue, she didn't seem to need her kindness."I know you heard me, you're not deaf, are you?" Rhyza's steady question.It was then that Lana leaned her back against the back of her swivel chair. "Yeah, I heard you," she said calmly then smiled at the woman.Rhyza's eyes immediately widened, and she seemed to be impatient that she was even able to hit her hand on the top of her desk and then pointed a finger at her. "Damn you girl, I'm serious. I said, I'm pregnant and Andrew is the father!" she stared at her angrily.Lana refrained from smiling but she couldn't help it. "You're funny," she said laughing softly again.She saw that Rhyza's face reflected the intense irritation that she feels for her. "I'm not joking!” she said emp
"SO, finally we met," Patricia said when he invited her to his office at Scott's Cafe's head office that same day.Andrew just smiled then made the woman sit down. “There are things I just want to discuss personally with you,” he said.Patricia laughed softly and then seductively crossed her beautiful and smooth legs. "I guess, about your contract?" she picked up the cup of coffee and drank.That was when Andrew straightened up and then stared straight into the woman's eyes. "I want to apologize for everything I've done to you," the young man begins.Patricia's eyebrows met along with the rapid clouding of her eyes. "What are you talking about?" her perplexing question.Andrew took a deep breath then kept staring into the young woman’s eyes. "I'm quitting show business, Pat. I'm not going to renew my contract to the agency," in a low but refined tone, that was what Andrew said.*****"MA'AM Lana, someone is looking for you," said
"STOP calling me! I can't give you any information about Andrew!" Patricia's irritable growl at Rhyza, who was last in a relationship with Andrew before the real villains returned to her life,. None other than the young man's daughter and its mother, Lana. "Aren't you his manager? Why can't you find a way for me to talk to him?" Rhyza's persistence in her tone is already sly. Patricia's eyes rolled in annoyance. She had always really not liked this woman because, well, she had to admit that she was actually more beautiful and seductive compared to her. But of all the women in and who have been in Andrew's life, this was the only one who dared to command and dictate to her. Patricia smiled bitterly. She was indeed happy when she heard about the separation between Andrew and Rhyza. Who and for what reason or who broke up she no longer knew. What is important to her is that her rivalry with the young man be reduced. But now, if only she could do something, she would want to put everyt
