101. Good friends

The duo got to the hospital half an hour later and was directed to a private ward where Eleanor was admitted. A doctor and two nurses were attending to her at the bedside when they pushed open the door and got in."How is she, Doc?" Cara inquired, a bit nervous. She tilted her head to have a better look at their friend was lying on the bed with closed eyes. She looked pale."What's your relationship with her?" The doctor turned and scrutinized the duo before asking."We are good friends. One of us- Angelina, the lady who brought her here, knows about our coming. She'd come anytime soon." Cara answered."She's needs a lot of rest. You can just stay quietly at her side before leaving. Due to the excessive bleeding, she lost a lot of blood before she was brought here." The doctor explained and turned back to continue checking Eleanor's vital symptoms.After a few minutes, he left with the nurses, giving the ladies privacy.Yara stood beside Eleanor. She suddenly felt her heay squeeze an

102. Plans

It was the first time in months, Yara listened to a song with her phone. She sat on the kitchen bar stool and kept nodding her head to the beat of the song, playing softly.Thinking Out Loud, By Ed Sheran.Though she couldn't really relate, she thought the lyrics made sense. As she chopped the bell pepper, leek and other veggies she was going to use to make sauce, Yara would join in at some point, not minding if she sang right or off."Looks like you're having fun." Yara turned to behold Grayson standing at the kitchen door. Without trying in the t shirt and short he was donning, he looked sinfully hot. His face was enticing and those eyes of his were staring right into her electric sapphire eyes, making her melt sofly under his intense gaze. Yara swallowed hard and looked away quickly. This man was lethal for her. And now, as she wondered how she spent the past month and fee weeks in his house, how she had resisted such hot mess, her mothers words, firmly telling her to stay away f

103. Genuine

"You have a scary smile. " Grayson pointed out as he stared at her. He couldn't remember ever seeing such a smile on her face. It was pretty but scary at the same time. For even when they had met at Montero many months ago and there were moments, she had smiled genuine that night, it was as good as this.Yara's smile widened. "That's a lie, I look cute."Grayson raised one brow higher than the other. "I'm the one to tell you how I think of it. But then, I still want to hear you talk about your day."Yara pursued her lips as she turned and went back to the stuffs she was doing- arranging the countertop and washing the few plates on the sink."I don't really know, but I think something is off. A few days ago, there's weird guy that kept trying to be friends with me. I ignored him. But today..."She noticed the sudden switch in his expression. His jaw had hardened and she didn't know if she should continue or just stop.However, she went for the former because she also wanted to ask som

104. Time

Fifteen Hours Ago..."Where are you taking your bags to?"Yara stopped and stared at the traveling bag she was holding at her left hand then the sling bag crossed on her shoulder.'What does he mean by bags?' She wondered."I'll be leaving to spend the rest of the weekend at a friend's place." She lied because she couldn't tell him she was going to Virginia to visit her mother.He could send someone to follow her around with her knowledge and she didn't want him to know about her mother. Not even how she looks nor where she lives."That's nonsense. Because we had a mere fight... that shouldn't even be called a fight, you're leaving?!" Grayson frowned, exuding a terrifying chill.Yara tried not to get intimidated. Her mind was already made up and it had nothing to do with yesterday night. "That's not the reason. I promised her family to be there today. She's really sick and needs someone close beside her.""The last time I checked who Yara Martinez is, she's a final year student of som

105. Sigh

The slamming of the bathroom door got Yara out of her reverie. She had been replaying that provoking event that occurred between she and Grayson, before she got to her mother's place.With a towel firmly wrapped around her body, Yara beheld her mother who had an expressionless look on her face. She could see the striking resemblance. They both had blue eyes, just that hers was bluer and more almost cat like. Their nose and shape of mouth was also similar as well. And that could be applied to most parts of their body.Yara sighted a few grey hairs on her older replica's long, beautiful hair and felt a pang of guilt in her heart. She suddenly felt terrible for staying away from her mother all those months. She had been so foolish to do so.Holding back her emotions, she forced a smile at her mother but Patricia didn't return the smile. She simply walked into the closet and changed into a black tank top and grey joggers before packing her hair in a ponytail.Yara would never understand w

106. Are you?

"I don't think I can let a man who kept my daughter from me all this while to have her." Patricia stated, finally bringing up the marriage topic.Yara was grateful as well as nervous that her mom finally brought it up. Her heart had been heavy since she came back and not for once did her mother mention it to her. Somehow, Yara believed that the heavy weight on her heart would get lighter, should she talk this out with her mom."It's not his fault, mom. Believe me, he has been nothing but a source of inspiration and encouragement to me. He promised to take me to you once I'm done with my projects." Yara stated.She immediately felt ashamed at her words. She realized that nothing she said was justifiable. And they all pointed to the same thing her mom was saying.Patricia said nothing. She kept crocheting until she paused and looked at Yara with those blue eyes of hers that said quite a lot. Yara got frustrated at her mother's silence. Worse still, that familiar look on her mother's fa

Yara woke up early the next morning. She was glad she did because all night, she wanted to draw her mother close and hug her. But she couldn't. She didn't even want to act as though she had heard the quiet sobs.She gently got down from the bed not to wake Patricia up as she went into the kitchen. There as she made bacon and fried eggs, Yara could hear the melodious voice of the choristers from the church nearby. It made her hum along unconsciously, as she got reminded that today was Sunday.It was a regular day in Grayson's house. No one went to church. They'd all stay back in their rooms or hang out together, indoor while resting and having their lone time.But this was her home. She was reminded of her roots.Yara took the tray of bacon and fried eggs and walked into her mom's room. She was still sleeping, yet Yara couldn't help but admire how pretty her mother looked, without even trying. She owed her good looks to her mom. She wasn't sure of her great her father was as regards v

Chapter 108"Where are you going to?" Yara screamed after her mother."Just to take a walk. I'll be back soon." Patricia replied as she stopped at the door post without turning back.When Yara didn't say another word to her, she walked on and out of the house in the same tank top and joggers she used to go to bed last night.Yara sighed. She didn't understand her mother again. The woman she knew that birthed her wasn't that complicated. Wasn't that hot blooded. And would never dress so carelessly while leaving the house."Did you even brush?" Yara stood up from the bed, carrying the tray of plates ones filled with bacon and fried eggs on it; as she exited the room and went into the kitchen.Yara heard no response. She assumed that her mom have left already. So when she dropped the tray on the kitchen countertop, she heaved a sigh and leaned against it.First, she tilted her head to crack the tension between her neck. Then she began cracking her knuckles as she thought of those words h

109. Shocking discovery

Furrowing her brows in suspicion, Patricia followed her daughter into the bathroom. There Yara was emptying her bowels on the sink. Her mom let out a sigh to let her know that she was there with her and she couldn't help but close her eyes for a brief moment to get herself together."Coming from someone that said she's not sick, this is suspicious. Are you okay?" Patricia asked."I said I am! Are you praying for me to be unhealthy? And please stop your annoying assumptions." Yara stated, turning on the sink tap and letting it run freely. "Don't waste too much water."Patricia continued. "I didn't assume yet. But I'll say what I think now. You're pregnant."Yara turned off the tap quickly and looked up, shooting her mother a shocked look. Her face and hands suddenly grew pale and she could feel her heart beat suddenly beating faster than before."What do you mean? I accept that I'm sick. Lied not to bother you. But pregnant? How could you think that your daughter is pregnant?""I don

110. Deep thinking

"I'm not coming back tomorrow. Not even the next. But I might be back on Friday." Yara said over the phone.She was sitting in the reception office of the hospital her mother was rushed to, just few minutes ago. She had to call Grayson to inform that he shouldn't expect her return anytime soon."Why? Have your friend's condition deteriorated?" Grayson asked."Why would you ask me that when you're I'm not a caretaker?!" Yara sneered, reminding him of his exact words the day she left for Virginia. "Whatever. Just make sure to take care of yourself and our child." "I'll take care of my child, Grayson. Thanks for your fake concern. But I'll pass." Yara stated, placing emphasis on the word 'my' before hanging up.She was slightly irritated that Grayson didn't sound remorseful neither did he apologize to her about locking her up that day. If he was waiting for her to first apologize for slapping him, then she believed he deserved another slap.Yara dropped her phone on her thighs and buri
