CHAPTER 11

Julia's POVI was listening to our Teacher's conversation when suddenly Queen called out to me, "Are you and John all OK, girl? Something seems to be going on between you two," Queen whispered softly to me.  "We just need space, and we have a serious problem. In any case, it's a long story. We're both busy at the moment, so we'll talk soon," Queen's eyes widened in surprise at what I stated.  Who wouldn't be surprised and perplexed by this? It's happening so fast because it happened all of a sudden. It seems like only yesterday that the two of us were OK, but now, nothing. It's broken because I'm scared of destroying the two of us if I reveal the secret.   After a few hours, we were on the final subject when the bell rang, signifying the end of class and lunch break, so I rushed out of school.&n

CHAPTER 12

John's POVIt's Saturday, and I murmured when I heard the doorbell rang. I looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it was eight o'clock in the morning.   They have no idea I'm still tired, and they're disturbing my sleep! My parents are also not here because they left early in the morning for Cagayan de Oro.   I went downstairs with mixed feelings because my sleep was being disrupted by this guest. When I opened the door and saw Kate, I was gobsmacked.   "Hey, baby!" she would have kissed me just before I turned away from her.   "Woah, chill out! What exactly are you trying to do? And, Kate, what are you even doing here?" I'm not sure why she's here. Isn't it obvious that I d

CHAPTER 13

John's POV"Yes! At last! Everyday practice is really coming!" King said happily when I told him Dad's plans about the Basketball Team   King really does love basketball even when we were kids. The National Athletic Meet is also near and it will be held in Tagum City.   "Yeah, Dad told me that. Torture again!" I answered him and he just rolled his eyes.   We stood at a bulletin outside the building while waiting for Queen because we had lunch together since we had a whole day today.   Now that they're dating, they seem inseparable.   "Guess who it is," Queen said changing her voice even more as she cove

CHAPTER 14

John's POVI was sleeping when someone barged inside my room and jumped on me, "Wake up there! Come on, wake up bro!" "Oww! Chill! I'm awake!" I woke up in no time because my back hurt, also I got muscle cramps hurt because we practiced, "Your so heavy, bro! What are you doing here? The fact that it's still early," I stood up from my bed and stretched my body. "Nothing. I came here because I want to hear your explanation or your side about you and Kate. What really happened?" He said so I closed my eyes because of that. "You know, let's have coffee first and that's where I'll tell you all." I got dressed first before we left my room. When we went down, I found Mom who had just finished cooking our breakfast. She looked at us and our Mother said, "Good, you're here,

CHAPTER 15

CHAPTER 15Julia's POV I put on my nicest and comfortable clothes and a little bit of perfume and some powder to go on.  I'm ready to visit John's house and it's okay for Dad to visit me there since he knows that we're already okay and we got back together.  As for Mom, I don't know how Dad will tell her but I don't care what her reaction is.  Our houses were close so I got there right away in just a few seconds. I called him from outside and I saw him quickly come out still topless. I didn’t know and my heartbeat quickened.  He noticed that I was distant from him so he looked at himself and that's when he realized that he was just topless and boxer shorts, "I'm sorry, Lia. It's kind of embarrassing. I'll just get dressed first," I nodded in response.&

CHAPTER 16

John's POVWe placed and put our bags inside my car and my Dad helped us filled my car with gas, "So, everything is settled. How about you, Julia? Is it really okay for you to take Baby Shan there?" Dad asked Julia as she fed Shan with bottled milk.  Julia looked at Dad and nodded, "Yes. My best friend will be there tomorrow and she will also be watching the game so I will leave Shan with her."  Dad nodded, "That's good. So, please, be careful in driving, John."

CHAPTER 17

Julia's POVI can't believe that Phillip is here. And here is the man I've always wanted to speak with and spend time with before. I remember thinking about how he was a while ago, but now I see him again and realize that he is doing great.  I literally see him right now in Tagum City with my new boyfriend, John, so the world is so small. After seeing him again, I can't help but recall the bitterness I felt when he drove me away and left me.  FLASHBACK"Phillip! Please, wait! I have to talk to you!" I called him once I saw him. I absolutely need to speak with him right now, and it's important.  I told him I was pregnant a week ago, and he has been avoiding me ever since.  "What do you want?" he asked as he turned to face me, his hard eyes piercing my soul. I was astounde

CHAPTER 18

Julia's POV I panicked as Shan went missing and I came in and out of the stadium but there is no sign of Shan everywhere.   Even his favorite stuffed toy that we always carry is not in his stroller.   I couldn’t help but worry intensely. What if Phillip saw him today? What if he takes my son and takes him away from me? I don't want that to happen. I don’t want to lose my baby!   "Lyn, tell me. Where is my son? Why isn't he here?" I tried to be calm but I couldn't help but worry, that's my son.   "Best, I swear! I just put him here in the stroller and then I just bought ice cream, it's not that far away, though," Lyn explained, almost bursting into tears at the incident, "

CHAPTER 19

Julia's POV John's parents looked at each other as I said the whole truth. I could also see that the two of them were arguing over who would speak first and to break the silence.  "Hmm," Mr. Anderson began and I smiled at him, "As far as I'm concerned and what I see, you're a great Mom, Julia," he said and smiled at me, and also Mrs. Anderson beamed at us as well.  I really don't know what to say to both of them. You see, it's hard to enter into a relationship if there's a child involved, and like me being a single mom.  "Julia, we're not surprised about it because your mom, Judy, and your dad told us everything way back before. I mean, I know and I can see it from the start that you're not really just siblings," she said.

CHAPTER 20

Julia's POV   I went up to Phillip and his best friend June. I can see they are both happy to see each other again. I can remember that they used to be best friends since Kindergarten and they became inseparable until high school.     The four of us — June, Lyn, Phillip, and I have been friends since elementary and not until I fell in love with Phillip way back in high school and got into a relationship. I guess, I still have good memories of him.     We approached them, "Oh, so? It's like you've talked for a while," I laughed.     "Oh, Jules, you know how much I missed my best friend," June said that he was obviously happy to talk to his best friend again.     "Yeah, but loves, it
