Gale PoV
So she was Lucy. She was my brother's, first love. He only used and betrayed her. Poor gorgeous lady. How did she end up falling for him? That bastard and brat! Don't worry pretty lady, if you will fall for me, I promise that you won't regret it.
They stop at one of the hospitals in town, The Medicare Hospital. I hid from Gregory because I'm sure he will recognize me even we didn't meet for five years. When dad forced me to marry Adriana, actually my late Adriana because she died two years ago with leukemia not long before I met my new girlfriend in the states.
I followed them and they stop at room 05. Someone close to her got admitted inside. As far as I recalled, Gregory mentioned that they will check her father. So Lucy's father was hospitalized but why? Is he sick? Did he have an accident?
I quickly went to the information desk to check about the patient in room 05. I decided
It's Friday morning and Lucy decided to stay with her father after going with her new friend Gale on a trip. She wanted to know this man's identity but she was clumsy enough to ask his family name.She was happy that her father's memory came back after being lost tentatively.----Thursday 2 pmHer phone suddenly rang and she checks it from her bag who was calling her. It's from the hospital's staff.She swipes the touchscreen button to answer it."Yes, hello?" She said while waiting for the staff's response. She's hoping that it's a good one.Her heart began pounding like a drum that reaches her ears. She's hoping that his father's memory will be back to normal so that he can recall what happened that night. He can tell her what kind of car hit him and if he remembered the person who bumped into him."Your father just regained his consciousness." The nurse informed her and Lucy told Gale
After the interrogation, they decided to put Lucy inside the cell.After five minutes..."Miss Mason you have a visitor!" one of the officers knocks on the cell bars and called her.She stays at the station for twenty-four hours already. She didn't eat anything since yesterday and today. They prepared food for her but she didn't touch anything. She lost her appetite since they arrested her like a murderer.They opened the cell door and escorted Lucy to the visitor's room. She saw Gregory sitting with an attorney. She felt relieved that Gregory came to help her.She quickly walked closer and told him what happened."Please help me! Call Kent right now to dismiss the case or else I'll be sent to correctional jail in Muntinlupa. I was framed and you know that?" She holds Gregory's hands.He didn't respond. He didn't make eye contact with her. Lucy stops and she gently take-off her h
Lucy PoV By simply looking at the glass of whiskey on my table, made me forget everything about my disastrous teenage life. My first love and boyfriend dumped me on our graduation day. He went to the states to study and didn't come back even until now. My life is full of thorns and stains. "Waiter, another glass, please!" I called for the third bucket of beer and one bottle of whiskey. After ten years of waiting, my life is still the same. It's better to die drinking than living with regrets. "Here ma'am," the waiter said after serving me. My eyes were heavy and my body feels weary. I gaze tipsy and smile at him. "Thank you" I mumbled. The karaoke bar was filled with loud people. You can find anything here. Minors, adults, married people, widows, the LGBT community, and even singles who were being cursed to be alone forever, and I was one of them.
Ten years agoLucy POVI'm so excited to climb on stage to earn a diploma from our professors. It's graduation day and I can't believe that we are now graduates. I search Kent everywhere but I can't find him. We both dreamt to study business together at Oxford University after we finish high school. I'm super excited to be with him in the dorm. We can have all the time and love for each other and no one will dare to bully me anymore especially some rich students I know.The graduation ceremony is about to start but still no sign of Kent. I took my phone from my bag and dialed his number. I will call him if he was on his way. His phone keeps ringing but no one is answering. I started to think negative things. What if he got into a car accident and his parents didn't know it? I tried to calm down myself. Maybe he's inside the traffic jam.The ceremony is about to end and Kent is still nowhere. What took him so long? The Graduat
Lucy PovI think I was dreaming again. I tried to pull myself together by standing straight and biting my lips. Concentrate and act accordingly like a lady. That's the only thing I can do to calm myself.He keeps staring at me and I think I'm about to lose my mind again. To have sex with him last night isn't enough to put my sanity at a good pace. I tried not to meet his luscious lips and desirable eyes. I felt like he was tearing off my clothes the way his eyes studied my whole body."Are you nervous Miss Mason? You can leave now and drop this job if you won't cooperate with me!" He behaves the same as Mr. Grey in the movie I recently in love with, Fifty Shades of Grey. He was so rude and frigid."No, sir. I need this job! I promise not to let you down!" I beg for him and he just laughed so hard.He stood up and walked around me. My legs are sweating I swear. What if he will suddenly kiss me again and, wait, what am I think
Ten years agoKent POVI'm still longing for Lucy even I'm already engaged to Eloisa. I can't believe that we both betrayed her. We both knew that she was Lucy's best friend but how can she so brazen towards me when I was her friend's boyfriend.I was having a coffee in the lounge of the hotel when I felt a hand wrapping around my neck. I looked back and it was Eloisa." Good morning, babe. You didn't wake me. I'm disappointed." She mumbled after she made her way on her chair in front of me.I put down the coffee on the table and shifted my eyes on her. I smirk."Really? You sleep like dead how can I wake you up?" I told her with sarcasm.She rolled her eyes again at me which I didn't like. She acted like a brat every time we argued about something. She's nothing to Lucy because Lucy acts smart and mature. I wonder how is she doing right now after four years.&nbs
Kent POVEloisa keeps calling me in the middle of the night. I ignored her calls because I want to spend the night with Lucy. Even the alcohol take over my sanity, I still know what I am doing. I can't believe how she waited for me for that long year. Why I was so weak and selfish at that time? I feel guilty and sorry for her. Seeing her resting in my arms while she's beautifully asleep, I can't help but smile. She never changed a bit, still pretty and innocent. The only thing I can't forgive myself for is, I never know that she was still untouched. Yes, Lucy is chaste the first time I bed her.Oh, I forgot my company phone at the house. It's morning and I had to go to meet new applicants who passed in the interview especially my new secretary.I don't intend to wake her. Maybe a letter is nice to greet her when she got up. I am still hoping to meet her again someday. We had a good time together and that's all matters.
Eloisa PoVIt's almost evening but Kent hasn't home yet. This is the first time he came home late in our ten years of marriage. I shook my head and think of our happy moments together. Maybe he had much paperwork to do since he's the one handling our firm. While thinking about my husband, the telephone rings. I took it and put it on my ears." Hello, may I help you?" I asked the person who called me on the other line."Madam, I hope you still remember me?" it's the same voice I last spoke before I and Kent went abroad."Rey? Why you suddenly calling me now? I thought our transaction ends there! Don't call me again! Bye!" I said while keeping lips calm.His chuckles ring in my ears."Are you crazy Madam Eloisa? You paid us half so I called you to get the other half!" he said.My mind is in chaos now. How did he find me and knew my telephone number? This person is a pain in my head. I had no choice
