Chapter 12: Choose You

"Your father is planning to file a divorce?" Uno's eyes widened as he took a step closer. 

"Don't make me repeat what I am saying and mind your own business," I uttered with full of authority. I reached for the bottle of whiskey but he hid it behind his back, making me look up to him. 

"I am minding my own business, Farrah." He swallowed and throw the bottle away. It made a sound but it didn't break into pieces. The liquor inside it flows out of the opening and it made me want to just slap Uno for snatching my temporary happiness.

  To spend a night under the dark sky, big leafy trees, cold wind, and the sound of the flies should make me frightened enough for me to run back to the mansion but I never felt peace more than what I have right now in Uno's arms. If I can stay here forever without worrying about what may happen tomorrow, I already did.I removed my hands from his hold and scanned his face. His breathing is now fine and his eyes were sleepy. I reached for his cheeks and caressed it lightly before giving me a small smile."You look tired. Let's go inside," I said and pulled his arm. He lazily drags his feet to where I am heading and the moves we have done is similar to a turtle's so I glanced at him behind my shoulders. He's just looking at our hands while his lips pouted.

  I woke up feeling so light. Uno's bed is so comfortable to sleep with! And although his pillow is a bit hard, it's so warm that the air-conditioned room didn't matter!I moved my leg beneath the blanket when I felt a big foot touching mine. My brows suddenly furrowed and opened my eyes only to see Uno's gentle and calm face. His breathing is slow, a sign that he's still asleep. It makes me want to wrap my arms around him but I stopped myself, afraid that I might interrupt his sleep.He slept late last night because of me so h deserves all the rest he can get. I put my palm at the side of my face and place my hand on top of it, admiring an awesome view in front of me.Uno's black messy hair complemented his fair skin.

  I wandered my eyes in the whole cafeteria. Some students are laughing while looking at Aliya, some are pointing at her, and the others are whispering with the people beside them. While I'm just observing at them before I darted my eyes at the poor Aliya who's now massaging her foot.My lips are still a bit parted, astounded of what I am seeing right now. The same Pigalle shoes Dad has given me is what she was wearing right now! My blood started to boil when her eyes met mine. I may look so bad but I thank the nerd for not giving her a hand and I highly appreciate the people who are laughing at her and give her the embarrassment she deserves."Ah," I saw her flinch when she tried to pull herself up. She was wearing a white flowy dress and her black straight hair hangs lazily in her shoulders.She shakes her head and hardly stood up using a table near her. I stayed in

  I posted the photos I captured at the seaside earlier. This is my third boring day without school. I thought going there are the most boring moments of our life—not until I got suspended for a week.The first day, I slept and spent my hours watching movies. Uno can't go and spend time with me because he has class and a bit busy because of his birthday celebration happening three weeks from now. He calls me every time it's time to eat to remind me so it's okay. “I” don't want him to go here in my house because I know I will not let him go home.I think I'm cursed. I can still remember how much I loathe him and how I told him for a hundred times that I'll never like him but I just found myself being as clingy as fuck.I slept for the second day. Heck, I slept late on the first day

  "Uno, you told me you're busy. What are you doing here?" I swallowed hard as I tilted my head to stare at him. I can see from my peripheral vision that Aliya's gaze immediately darted when I spoke. A line appeared in between my brows as I waited for Uno's answer.All the colors drained out of Uno's face. His lips were parted as he gaped at me, moving his swivel chair to the side to stand up and walk towards me."I asked if you want to go with me, I didn't know you'll have a date with..." I licked my lips and gave Aliya a head to foot. "This bitch." I rolled my eyes and whirled around, removing the magic tape in my nape to pull the salon suit off and handed it to my stylist."Farrah, it's not what you think!""Sorry, I will just set a

  "Sorry, Grandma is just like that but she's nice." Uno held my hand and squeezed it. My eyes were glued at my shoes, still biting the insides of my cheeks and feeling the awkwardness from what happened just right now."Hey," he lifted my chin up and stared at me with his sad eyes. "She's nice, just don't mind her." He said and kissed my forehead."It's the first time that I saw her, I'm surprised." I bit my lips and sat on the nearest sofa. Uno placed his hands at the side of his waist and looked down on me."She's living in States, she's only here because of my birthday...""Come, let's go to my room and rest for a bit. Don't think about it again—""Uno!" A girl

I crashed my lips with his and sucked his upper lip, opening my mouth wide for his tongue to enter. I shut my eyes close and held his nape, pulling him closer. I want to reach something, the fire I am feeling right now won't vanish and all I wanted is to hold him in between my arms."Uno...please..." I begged.His lips left mine and he's now kissing my jaw down to my neck. My hands traveled down to his chest to his lower abdomen as I stared at him with hot desire."We'll do it once I'm sure you love me." He smirked and left the bed to wear his pants on an

  Me, having a complete family will be put into an end.That's what I've thought after reading the paper. The only thing that is missing is my parents' signature.

Yes, maybe he isn't happy with his marriage, but can't he think about me? I'll be left with nothing but a broken and wounded heart.The steps that I did feels heavy.
