Chapter 30

"It's fortunate that the truck only bumped us from behind, I might suffer from serious injury at that and split my head open," I ended my story with a smile. But the man in front of me still can't calm down. He still wouldn't meet my eyes and kept on shaking his leg while the doctor looked over my head. Levi was with Nurse Lucia in the pediatrics section, and I'm kind of embarrassed because I don't need a VIP room. "I'm fine," I insisted. I just hit my head, and the scar I believed was cured already isn't, so they have to re-stitch it and do some sort of other things all while I'm awake. It feels like I'm a cloth that they stitched, I'm calmer, though, than the first one where I balled my eyes out with tears. I kept what really happened a secret and just went with the story Thomas made up, it hurts but he didn't do that again after that accident, and after that, my sister became pregnant and I finally got out of the picture. Levi's old enough to be left alone in the house, so I d

Chapter 31

"Cardiac Angiosarcoma. It's a cancer in the heart. Have you ever felt like having a migraine all the time? Your heartbeat becomes abnormal even in normal times, right?" I touched my pale cheeks and settled on my lap, tears threatened to fall as I stared into nothingness. What should I do now? What about my revenge? I haven't worn my revenge dress yet. What's happening now? I turned to the doctor, tears spilled down my cheeks. He's tall, has a lean but slim figure, has white porcelain skin, has a clean-shaven face, chunky eyes, and thick eyebrows, and he looks like he is a perfectionist doctor who doesn't get wrong in everything he does. He continued explaining about this cancerous thing that I have in my heart, but all I could hear was my beating heart. "Here is your overall CT scan," he said and brought me a brown envelope. My mouth fished for something to say, but I ended up closing it after breathing the cold air. My flimsy hands were shaking, and the tips of my fingers wer

Chapter 32

What I wanted for Levi was nothing but the best. I think every mother thinks that, but not everyone is capable of doing that. For me, I'm capable. It's already lying in front of me, I just have to grab my spoon and swallow it. That's exactly what I did. So we're packing our bags again, preparing to move out for the third time. Levi was hesitant at first, but when I explained we were moving to his father's place, his eyes suddenly lit up. "You know what, Ma, Daddy's place is so wide and beautiful! He has this huge living wall on the stairs, and the garden has chess pieces! The pieces are taller than me! And in the dining, there's a big aquarium with fishes, coral, and algae, and it has an infinity glass pool a movie theater, and a little candy station with my train station! And miniature cars!" Based on the child's description of his father's house, it's obvious that he has been there a couple of times. "How did you know that? Did you go there already?" Levi put his hands over h

Chapter 33

The school was invited to a seminar in another town, I was asked to attend together with the vice president and other co-teachers. So I prepared myself earlier than the two boys, they slept together in their room of Levi, and I, on the other hand, slept in one of the guest bedrooms. The problem that we encountered was for another day. I'm just glad that Levi was comfortable and happy with his father on his side. We were told that the meeting place would be at school, but when I arrived there, I didn't see any co-teachers, just the guard in his guard house. "Good morning, Ms. Tomoya!" he greeted me. I smiled at him. He's a tall, dark man in his mid-30s, I heard his three children were also attending here through a scholarship. It was Tripp's idea. I bet they're also living in the apartment that he provided. "Good morning, too, sir. Have you seen the other teachers here? We're supposed to have a seminar." His forehead formed into a thin line and turned to the gate for a second be

Chapter 34

"Trevor..." I called, and then I fully opened my eyes. I clutched the white blanket that served as a cover for my bare body. I feel like I've been staring at the ceiling for a whole damn time now. Rays of the sun were peeking behind the thick black curtains that surrounded the room. This was the master's bedroom of the house. At least I know where I am now. The man shifted from my side. "Did I trip and fall into your bed?" I said mindlessly, still staring at the ceiling. For a woman who got drunk last night, I feel like my brain's being chopped on a butcher's place alongside the pigs. A pair of eyes fell on me, and I don't need to look at who's that person because I already knew it too damn well. "Sulli, if you want to sleep, just sleep. This is our bed. What are you talking about?" he grunted, and I gripped the blanket tightly. "No, I'm naked. Did we do something?" My face was flushed when I finally decided to look at him. "Yeah, anyone that's in a relationship would do and in

Chapter 35

Am I getting punished because I got drunk after our seminar? Or because they purposely left me showing how they despise me, so they plot something that would force me to resign? What did they plot then? My widened eyes darted to the student sitting at the far end table with his head bowed down. He's the only one I think they can manipulate. I was about to talk but the door swung open and the president of the school and his best friend walked slowly toward me. "I'm so disappointed." Tripp walked towards me, all eyes on him and his companion. Trevor went parallel to me, and Tripp brushed my shoulders before turning and facing the faculty. "To all of you." "Why do you want a teacher to resign? I handpicked all of you here and gave you apartments close to the school to lessen your transport cost, I treated you well and went as far as giving you salaries and benefits far better than anyone, I've been generous in short. So why are you trampling my reputation?" Tripp made a sharp look t

Chapter 36

"But I don't feel anything weird, doc?" Why do I sense that they're all trying to persuade me into something that would make me feel ashamed of myself?"Here, take this Sulli." Damien got his business card and gave it to me with a smile. "You can call me anytime if you want assurance." I can't help but think there's a hidden meaning behind his last sentence. I looked at his business card just to avoid looking at him. "Ms. Tomoya, if you want we can run some tests again, and maybe have an understanding of your disease, after all, I'm a great oncologist." Doctor Rea beamed. My eyes lit up and I wanted to hug Doctor Rea right then and agree but my peripherals caught a glimpse of Damien looking so gloomy. I'm not one to trample on the pride of others, especially if it's right. For sure, Damien didn't become a doctor easily, he had to build brick by brick the title he has now, and it's going to look so bad if I asked Doctor Rea for a second opinion in front of him. I have to lower m

Chapter 37

"Don't deny it, it's written all over your face."Trevor was so close that I got lost, his eyes gleamed as I nodded in agreement. I admit it, no need to consider my pride, it would end with me nowhere in the picture anyway. "Really?" Trevor pushed back a little and stared at me in awe, "You're not denying it?" "There's no need for that," I said and squirmed in my seat, trying to make up some space. It's been so long, Trevor and I have known each other since college, we've learned about each other, fallen in love then fell out of love. I'm not the same immature and childish girl as before, I'm a mom now, and I should take responsibility and I'm going to die, I think it's the right time to set things in their right places, so that when I leave, Levi won't be alone. The thought humbles me, and with all the nice people I'll leave soon flashed through my mind. I guess it would be a shame if I don't give them a nice memory of me at least. "Say, Trevor, since we're at that," I mumbled

Chapter 38

People say you can't bring back the past, all you can do is accept it and move on, but they forget that you can reminisce then cry over it and regret it until you become numb all over. Just like what I did last night, after our conversation, my thoughts kept me up all night. I slept in the guest room, and I still don't have the willpower to feel at ease; I still feel awkward and uncomfortable. I guess this was what I reaped after all these years: I don't deserve to be happy. The result of overthinking last night was that I hadn't slept even a wink. I arrived at school in the earliest as possible and sunk my nose into whatever work time put me. Being a teacher wasn't my plan at all, but it was written as my third choice in my college application, so maybe I did add it to my plan. So when I was studying education, I was at a loss, because that's not really what I wanted to study, but then again, after I had my degree, I aimed to be at law school, I pushed my luck and called myself th

Chapter 39

"How come Miss Tomoya is so close to the president of the school?" I had to wait behind the cubicle door when I heard two girls having a conversation while retouching their make-up in the sink. "Don't you know? She's a slut! A man-hungry woman who can't live without boys, I heard she already has a son but still dares to snake our president." From the little creek of the cubicle, I squinted my eyes and saw two teachers in their tight-fitting uniforms applying lipstick and mascara while looking in the mirror. My heart squeezed like someone purposedly did so. I never gave that a thought, I thought it was just a trivial matter because I knew that was not true. It's not true, of course, I'll be kind to Tripp because he's also kind and nice.I don't nicely treat people just because they're higher than me, I treat people based on how they treat me. I received kindness from him, it's natural to return that kindness. Unlike these poor teachers who don't know I'm in one of the cubicles bef
