I opened my eyes when I felt a pain on my stomach. I groaned and wandered my eyes around the whole room. White walls, a closed room with a small window at the right side covered with blinds welcomed my eyes. The room was almost silent, except the small noise coming from the room's air conditioner and the ticking of a machine beside my bed. I tried to pull myself up using my right hand and grunted when I felt the stinging pain on my lower body.
The door opened and revealed Vanessa's troubled face, behind him is Dylan with the same expression, but with food on his hand.
I furrowed my brows.
"What happened? What's with your faces?" I asked and touched my tummy. My eyes darted at my dress, and then I remembered, I slipped on my unit's bathroom and lost consciousness.
My heart started to beat wildly, I touched belly. It feels so strange like I lost something inside me. Fear crept inside me. My heart beats loud as the corners of my eyes heated, my chest tighten
"What do I deserve to know, bastard?" Uno, in his brows puckered in a frown and usual scowl, uttered in a deep voice. He was wearing his rectangular glasses, his hair divided in the middle, and his white long sleeves polo curled up to his forearms."Uno..." I licked my lips and carefully walk towards him barefoot."Is there something that you don't want to tell me, Farrah? What is it?" His dark eyes darted at me. His face was already dark, his lips pursed in a grim line, and jaw clenching tightly. I bit the lower inner part of my lips and shook my head."Nothing, Dylan told me that...that he will tell you that I don't want to eat. That's it." I held his arm, my head bowed a bit, refusing to meet his eyes and be caught that I am only lying.I saw in my peripheral vision that he scanned me from head to foot, and then I felt his hand touching my waist. My heart hammered fast and my cheeks burned in both nervousness and embarrassment."The Doctor told
This life is so unfair to me. I wish I could ask the creator to reincarnate me to a life where I can be happy. Not like this. Not when I have everything that I want but not everything that I need. I hate that I got all the riches but not the life I am longing for.Everything that you are asking for won't be given to you unless you make an effort. What level of effort should I exert just to get my happiness? What more can I do just so I can finally have the life I am trying to hold?It was almost. Almost a true love, almost a great every day, almost a happy family. I thought when I married Uno and watched how happy he is when we finally succeeded in making a family will make my unsaid dreams come true. I thought that maybe I could do the things I wasn' able to do with my family.I thought that I would wake up first and cook for them, wake them up with a kiss and call them to eat with me. The things that I saw my mother doing was my silent dreams. Those things tha
"I told you I don't want to eat! When on Earth will you get everything that I will say? I don't want you here!"His voice was loud and harsh. His eyes were red, face contorting and his breathings are fast as he pointed at the door. He stood up and walk towards me, making me step back until my back was leaning against the cold, white wall of our room.His bloodshot eyes made my legs and lips tremble, my hands were also shaking and my tears won't stop from falling down my cheeks."I'm sorry...I just want to make you eat and–""I told you to leave the house! I told you I no longer want to be with you but it seems like when you slipped, a screw also fell from your head that you wouldn't comprehend anything! Fuck!" He put his left hand beside my waist, his fingers spreading wide as it sticks on the wall and the other flew from his side down to the concrete, making me jump and close my eyes in shock and fear."Uno I'm sorry, but I don't want to lea
"Annulment papers..." I whispered. The papers fell on the floor, my hands are shaking as I darted my confused eyes at him."I already signed it. Yours is the only thing that is needed to pass that. You can also review the terms if you want." His eyes were blank, he was just there, standing without showing any expression on his face.A lump in my throat built up as I sit and pick the papers one by one. A tear fell from my eye. This thing hurts. I just thought that we could still make all of this work but he was so fast. I am still hoping for a chance to make us whole again but he already broke my heart for the nth time.I stood up and throw the envelope on the sofa."W-why are you doing this? Do you not love me anymore?" I asked in a tremulous voice. My lips quivered. I walk towards him, closing the gap between us. "Is this so easy for you that you will just throw me out of your life? Am I some garbage that can be disposed when you no longer want to use, U
After all these years, I realized that my dream was too much. It was almost unreachable. Only a few people would be able to achieve and get a hold of it and they are so lucky.When I was a child, I thought, happiness is one of the easiest things you could get every day of your life. Whenever your Mom gets out and will go home with a barbie, whenever your father will carry in his arms while you are pretending to be Darna or superman, whenever one of your classmates will greet you a happy birthday. Those were the simplest things which can make your mood so good and brings you happiness.But as I grow up, I noticed that I am losing my grip. I couldn't get a hold of it longer than I used to. The contentment that I got was already shortlived and I couldn't accept how it slowly vanished on my hand. Happiness is not some kind of a normal dream which you can get after you graduated nor get married.It's not something you can hold onto for the rest of your life. I alread
Uno's hands move fast as he removes all my clothes off the luggage and put it on top of the bed. He was crumpling it and will only stop when he sees that the folded clothes were in a mess.My lips parted. I entered the room and marched towards the bed."What are you doing?" I snatched the clothes from his hand and glared at him. My heart was beating fast, confused as to why he is acting like this."Why are you ruining my clothes? I already folded it and was about to leave but you will–""Why did you sign the papers?" He cut my words off.I frowned. "Are you nuts? You told me to sign it, so I signed it."He glanced at my clothes, then his hands reached for another luggage and opened it, picking my stuff one by one."What the hell are you doing, Uno? I told you I already fixed it!" I whirled around and kneeled in front of him, trying to remove the luggage from his hold."Why are you doing this–stop!" I yelled and went
"Ms. You have a meeting later with the Fly PH at 1 pm. Another meeting with the board at 3 pm and the rest is for signing some documents." Mayi uttered as she scanned on her papers and then glanced at me with an awkward smile.The same, stern face that I always have every day of work has been plastered again the moment I started to work here as a head. I am working here again for about two weeks and everything felt so normal. Investors that we got after the merging with Uno's company has been decreased, although some of them stayed, some are not me and Pacifica that much without Uno's presence so they pulled it all out.It saddened me a bit, it feels like I am not as efficient as what I am trying to be and they couldn't see my potential so they decided not to stay, but I couldn't blame them because business is a gamble. You win or you lose. In this case, I am working so hard together with my employees not to go back to the top but to lift the company from the mud.
He must be freaking kidding me. I actually thought girls are the only creatures who are hard to predict not until Uno came into my life. He was one heck of a difficult person!He was furious at me and he doesn't want me anymore. How many times should I remind myself that we are now in the process of our annulment and just waiting for the trials? We are not the married couple before, and asking me to eat with him again after two weeks of not seeing each other is just weird. It doesn't seem or sound so right."Girl this is legit, I think Uno still loves you and he wants to win you back! This is your time!" Vanessa let go of her milk tea and clapped her hands."I mean you've been waiting for this, right? And Uno is making the first moves! Grab it already!"I lazily lifted my eyes at her, then back to my laptop. I am in my Mom's house, occupying one of the rooms ever since I left Uno's penthouse. It's already 8 pm, those times where I should be hugging my pil
