Chapter 69: Overreacting "I know you'll do that. Are you really sure you can do it now on your own? Maybe you'll have a stalker out of nowhere again?" I smiled. "I'll be careful this time. Besides, I can't be with you permanently, can I? It's really embarrassing, especially and I'll worry your parents more. You're my friend and I know you love me. But I don't want to be a burden to anyone. Your parents are too kind for me. " She looked at me angrily. "That's why I love you and want to protect you. One more thing, Mom already considered you her second daughter. But if this is really what you want, I won't stop you. You were able to run away and leave without telling us, I know how firm your decision is to live separately. " "Thank you and you understood me. You really don't want me to leave you, do you? You still hid my two keys, house and gate, you really hid it under your pillow." I teased her so she scoffed. "I was shocked when you said you wanted to move out. So, I thought that
Chapter 70: Regrets "Your fat cat looked so tired and bloated because he's full of food. All your allowance just poured into his stomach.” I just shook my head and smiled at what Sera said. "Pat should just be fat. If before, he was wet in the rain, now he's full of love. He's not naughty like other cats. I guess that's just his nature. I really love him." Now, I’ve taken my cat because I didn’t take him when I ran away from home. Sera is here because she visited again. I told her not to worry before but she insisted. I knew her brother got even angrier, which was annoying. Is it still my fault? He will blame me for everything! He never really stopped looking for loopholes just to be angry and annoy me. "Anyway, fix yourself and let's go to the grocery store. I'm also excited to look at snacks in the supermarket. I've run out of snacks in the room." She said and lay still on the couch. I frowned. "Avoid salty snacks for now. You're always watching a series. I've been there before
Chapter 71: Not really alone I was absent from class for a month because I had been mourning the loss of my parents all November. I said that to Prem, Boun, and Xenon, as well as to our subject teachers. They understood me and told me to just withdraw from the assessments when I returned to class. Many sympathized with me and even my cousins, aunts and uncles on my Mom and Dad's side went to the house. I wasn’t close to them in the first place but I feel warmth when they all hug me and say I should just be strong and move forward. Honestly, I feel numb. I don't know how I feel if I still feel resentment but the last time I cried was when I was still in the hospital. Mommy G and uncle took care of all the paperwork and such because Mom and Dad had some things left in Canada. They said that they would take care of everything so I don't have to worry. Mom and Dad's secretary also called and found out what had happened because they had also heard about it. Mommy G said that they would li
Chapter 72: Sudden change I thought everything's okay. I became complacent, comfortable and I continued to move forward. Not until, as if all my sources of strength and happiness were suddenly taken away from me. I told myself that I’m not alone in all these trials because I have sympathizers, friends, and like my second parents. But all of it seems like an illusion because they suddenly disappeared. After the defense and exams, I went near the gate of the campus to wait for Sera. I texted her that we will entertain ourselves since today is the last day of the exams. It's better if we don't stress and will bond before the Christmas Party since I’m not attending it next week. I waited for a few hours until I saw her with her female classmate walking towards my direction. I approached her and smiled, "Sera, let's go to the mall?" They stopped talking when they heard me and she looked at me. To my surprise, she averted her eyes from me and pulled her classmate away. I was left dumb
Chapter 73: Opportunity "So that's what happened?" he asked and I nodded. "I didn't expect all that to happen in your life when I was only gone for a few months." I stared at him and couldn't help but to be amazed. If he used to be so simple, now his hair is colored. It was light brown and I think that adds to how bright his smiles are. He looks so confident and now that we are here in a restaurant, the people around us can't help but look at him. He stood out the most. But despite what had changed in him, his smile was still the same that reached his eyes. I smiled. "It looks like your life is fine now. You look so well raised. You made the right decision to go to Singapore. For the sake of your siblings and Mom. How are they?" I asked and he laughed. "Getting better, indeed. Mom's condition is stable and she is already teaching my siblings when it comes to their assignments. Well ... I guess I made the right decision. My father and I have a pretty good relationship. Of course, I
Chapter 74: Ready The vacation is finally over and Fern is back in Singapore. I also accompanied him to the airport until he was out of my sight. It was a relief and overwhelming when he just wanted to see and bond with me here in the Philippines when he came back. That was his priority and he proved it to me by spending his time with me at the beach the whole Christmas vacation. I went back to class this January and as I expected, the rumors about me are still not fading. They continue to spread. I followed Fern's advice to just ignore all those who insulted me and just let it pass but ... I still haven't stopped texting and chatting Sera. I explained myself through it but I didn't get at least a single reply. I know I'm really hopeless and desperate but I want to express myself to her that I didn't use her and her family just for my own benefit. I really love her and her family. But then, once when I was composing a message again and I sent it afterwards, I found my sim can no lon
Chapter 75: Ten years "Two, please back me up here. We're going to get this one down." I hastened to press the moving keys on my keyboard and went to where One was. Three, Four, and Five have also arrived and I think they have knocked down their counter opponents. I smiled when One finally made the last move and lost the opponent's life bar! "And Sunny Snakes won the national championship again in this annual Lit Fire Singapore tournament! These ladies won't disappoint!" "Right partner! With those moves that are amazing, who isn't nervous, right?" The five of us stretched and laughed. These companions of mine’s skills have not really faded. "What for dinner? Chicken and beer?" Myo asked, whose code name was Five. Lai winced, whose codename was Three. "I'm going to have wings because we always have chicken. Why not a hotpot?" "Sure, I'll go with a hotpot. Let's have chicken and beer so that Myo doesn't frown anymore." Guan teased, whose code name was One. And because of that, we
Chapter 76: Faith "Faith, I brought your favorites!" I greeted Faith warmly when I entered their house. Faith immediately approached me and kissed me on the cheeks, so sweet! "Mommy Kira, thank you! You're my favorite Mommy in the whole world!" she said and took the plastic bags from me then went straight to the dining table. Fern glared at me. "I told you, don't spoil Faith. She'll get used to always buying anything. I don't want her to grow spoiled." "It's just a small treat. I just want to treat her because we won and we're champions again, so why not I'll treat her? I don't have any money after all." I said and sat down on the couch. "So… you’re saying you’re rich already? You’re just going to spend your money on somebody just like that?" he asked, raising an eyebrow at me. "Excuse me? Faith is not just somebody. I love her and she brightens up my day! Look at me! ---" I smiled happily and winked at him, "I feel better when I see and talk to her. She's my happy pill." His
PATRICIA “Patricia.” Patricia looked at her brother. "Hmmm?" "I’ve been calling you to come downstairs. You have a visitor." She stood up and released the book she was holding. "Who is it?" "Just come down and look. Stop asking." Kit rolled his eyes and left his younger sister. Patricia, on the other hand, was still smiling until she came downstairs to see who her visitor was. She opened the gate and smilingly looked at her alleged visitor. But that smile of hers suddenly disappeared when she saw that visitor. "It's been a while." Patricia was about to close the gate again when the man in front of her blocked his body to stop her. "I want my fiancé back. Please come back to me." Patricia's face immediately shifted when he said that and faked a smile. "You missed your chance, so now I want you to stay out of my life." ** KIT “Your sister looks adorable.” Kit looked at his friend, Yang. "Don't you know that every time you tell me that, I get disgusted?" "Bro, court Kit’s
"Mom, wake up." When I heard that little voice, I immediately rolled over and woke up. "Why baby? What's the matter?" I asked him tenderly but I was surprised when he rolled his eyes. "Mom, your hair looks like grass. Fix your face as well." That's all he said and left me. I just forced a smile because of what I heard from him. That kid really resembled Patry. I'm just really holding back from being annoyed every time. And I just heap my annoyance on Patry every time that kid treats me like that. His name is Kit Bautista, our 10 years old baby boy. He is still our baby even though he speaks like that. For heaven's sake! He's just a grade 4, an elementary student. Yet when he speaks, he sounded like Patry when he was so snobbish before. It's really his fault. I just fixed myself and went down. My husband and our second daughter appeared before my eyes. "Mom, you look so pretty." She approached me and even kissed my cheek. Sweet! Her name is Patricia Bautista. Our second born, 7
WARNING before reading the 'Untold Chapters', you have to read from the start (if you haven't yet) to understand the flow of the story and why it has these additional chapters. ** Patry's POV My suspicion was correct. He is the culprit why Kira's parents died suddenly. It was a plane crash, a suicidal thing. I think he paid the pilot of that plane. Is he that desperate to get rid of Kira? I gritted my teeth in disgust. "You're already in jail but you still don't regret what you did. You have a daughter but that's what you did to Kira. What if all that happens to Olivia?” I faked a laugh. “Maybe you also intentionally killed your wife before, Olivia's Mom. Isn't it? " He immediately stood up and punched the glass that was blocking between us. "I LOVE MY EX-WIFE! I LOVE MY DAUGHTER! I DID EVERYTHING FOR THEM! OLIVIA JUST FORCED TO MAKE IMPRISONED BECAUSE OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU!" I stood up as well and brought my face close to his even though there was a glass blocking us. "I didn’t fo
WARNING before reading the 'Untold Chapters', you have to read from the start (if you haven't yet) to understand the flow of the story and why it has these additional chapters. ** Patry's POV Olivia De Guzman. I just looked at her and averted my eyes. I heard of her, she's the daughter of a famous senator. There were so many rumors about her and the news was fast. That senator donated half a million to the university for the construction of another building. In simple words, he's a big fish. So all the teachers as well as the director were kind to Olivia. But what amazed me was that she has been clinging to me a lot since she transferred. Annoying. With the dynamic number of students here, why me? "I transferred here because of you. I mentioned you to Dad and you know he's so powerful, don't you? When he finds out that you don't pay attention to me, he will do bad things just to bury you alive." That girl was insane. She insisted on talking to me no matter what I did to push her
WARNING before reading the 'Untold Chapters', you have to read from the start (if you haven't yet) to understand the flow of the story and why it has these additional chapters. ** Patry's POV Weeks passed until I managed not to contain my anger, not only to the men surrounding her. But it looks like my friends will be my rivals as well. We were walking at the mall and accidentally, we met Kira at the Game House. I didn't know about them going to the mall together. My friends invited me, and it distracted my direction from her. Another point is that they seemed to be drawn to her. "Let's go somewhere." I walked ahead and walked away from Kira. I’ll be back, love. "Your sister's friend looked so cute." I heard Nucleus say so I clenched my fist. I heard Third laugh. "There are a lot of good ones in the Grade 11 batch. To be honest, there are more girls here in Arkinstein than in San Fuego High." "But Patry's sister's friend is way more cute." I stopped walking when I heard what
WARNING before reading the 'Untold Chapters', you have to read from the start (if you haven't yet) to understand the flow of the story and why it has these additional chapters. ** Patry's POV My pride is killing me slowly. "No. Don't you ever come here again." I sternly said and rushed back to my room. After I closed the door, I placed my hand on my chest .... it’s clenching and seems like I’m going to puke. I've been pushing her away out of our house. She doesn't deserve to be treated like this. I knew that all along but I still kept on saying bad words to her. I’m forcing her to leave and I’m making her feel that she does not belong to our family. I grabbed my camera and tried to take some pictures of her while going home. All of the pictures of her that I took were her looking so sad… because of me. I've been taking pictures of her since she was in Junior Highschool, I forgot to mention. It was worth it because I always see her face. Now that she’s now always going to our h
WARNING before reading the 'Untold Chapters', you have to read from the start (if you haven't yet) to understand the flow of the story and why it has these additional chapters. ** Patry's POV “MOM! HE PUSHED ME! HUHUHU!” I flashed a disgusted face as I saw the kid’s crying drama. I was only five and it’s my first time to try playing with the other kids in grandma and grandpa’s hacienda. I really thought that the kids here are so kind, welcoming, and playful. But then, this male kid who approached me tried to snatched my transformer figure. It was so expensive and I’m scared that it might get broken. Instead of pulling the figure with him, I pushed him instead. Is that bad? “Hijo, what happened? You pushed your playmate so hard that it caused him to have a bleeding knee.” Our grandma approached me but her voice was so soft. It’s like she just wanted to understand me. “I pushed him because he wanted my toy. This is only mine.” I averted my eyes and I heard her sigh. Another day
Chapter 104: Bells are ringing I was enraged for almost a month while enduring not talking to Patry. I have no intention of telling him more about the baby in my womb now. I’m thinking that I would just raise him on my own. I don't want to go and marry a man who is a cheater and can't be satisfied. I can't stand the baby's suffering in the future. He had set up a tent outside our house, waiting for me to talk to him but I didn’t bother. "Kira, Patry have been sleeping outside for almost a month. When are you going to talk to him?" I looked at Sera. "Why did you let him in through the gate? He's banned here, isn't he? My head gets even hotter when he's near." "He bought you macaroni soup downstairs and the cravings you said last night, siopao and siomai." I was stunned and immediately stood up. I heard her laugh and I knew she was teasing me. I went downstairs until I reached the dining table. My stomach immediately growled when I saw the macaroni soup. I took a spoon and immediate
Chapter 103: Break up? "I'm not sure if our wedding will continue." They looked at me as if they couldn't believe me. Here I am again with the complete squad at a restaurant. It's Nin's treat and she herself insisted on it. She said that she made a lot of money last month so she took it as an opportunity to treat us. Or maybe that's not really the reason. "What are you saying? You're just newly engaged but you're going to break up? Do you really love each other?" Jerich asked one after another and I just sighed. My head hurts again. Plus the fact that Patry hasn’t spoken to me politely until now and he’s really stubborn! I was trying to convince him to have a serious talk about our wedding plans but he didn't want us to go back to the wedding planner that Mommy G got. It's embarrassing for Emerson because he walked out that day and didn’t come back. I can’t really understand his attitude anymore! "They have opposite interests. They can't agree on one option and my brother doesn't
