Private RoomAFTER I disclosed everything to Aurora's parents, I kept silent to one side. I still patiently waited for the doctor outside the operating room with them.I stood up and went to the window. I want an update on the situation of my wife... how is the operation done by them."What will be your action now, Damien? Where is Katherine?" Dad silently asked one after another question. He makes sure that mom and Aurora's mom won't hear it."She was also in this hospital, but she's not critical, unlike my wife. I will make him pay for what she did to my wife even though she has a psychological problem."Dad's mouth fell open. "Psychological problems?" he asked with surprise."Yes, Dad. That's why she didn't accept it when I was separating from her because I was already married. Came to the point that even Aurora was disturbed by her and sympathized with her anger toward me. She wanted to end her life with my wife."Dad shakes his head. "That woman is dangerous, Damien, especially s
BlameMY whole body was HEAVY and my eyelids were heavy when I slowly opened my eyes. I want to move but my arms and legs are really heavy. I can also feel the dryness of my stomach and my thirst.I forced my hands to move when I saw someone with his head on the side of my bed. I feel its grip on my palm.I moved my palm and tried to wake him up with that. He moved as if careless. I swallowed when I recognized who was next to me.He opened his eyes and looked at me. His spirit suddenly woke up when he saw that I was awake."Aurora? Finally, you are awake..." he pressed something on the side of my bed. "Sweetheart, are you okay? How are you feeling? Would you like something to eat or drink?"I just stared at him as he kissed my palm sweetly. I have no urge to answer back because I still feel weak.After a while, a doctor and a few nurses entered that room. Now I realized that I am in the hospital. I suddenly remembered what exactly happened to me before I lost consciousness. The car ac
GrieveTHREE days have passed since I had a miscarriage. I have been in the hospital for three days to heal the wound from my operation.I feel I am slowly gaining my energy. I already moved on from the pain of my physical wounds, but the wound of losing my child... is still there. My heart still mourns the loss of my child.I'm slowly accepting it in my heart and mind that the baby will give satisfaction to mom and me, is already gone.I immediately wiped the tears from my cheeks when the door opened and Damien entered. I avert my eyes from him.I feel he was coming closer and sitting on the chair near my bed.He took a deep breath. I feel him hold my hand. I didn't move and looked at him. I don't want to look at him because every time I see him, he brings back to me the day he abandoned me, and our child. He wasn't even delighted to know my surprise at that time."Aurora, please... Let's talk. Talk to me," he pleases me. How many times did I stop myself from snapping or pulling him
Private TalkI'M still in the hospital, and it's already my fifth day and today is the day I'm going out. Damien, my friends, my mom, and my in-laws are also there.They were also there while the doctor was discussing the schedule for me to take the medicines at the right time and how to properly clean my wounds."Mr. Harrison, can you call me directly if your wife feels any pain in her side, my phone number is written on the receipt—""Doc, my mother will handle it. Give and entrust everything I need to her. Thank you," I interrupted the doctor.Everyone's eyes looked at me when I said that. Even the doctor was surprised by what I said. But even though he was surprised, he gave all the records and prescriptions to mommy who will nurse me."Well, it is really your last day in this room. I am glad that you finally recover, Aurora. I wish for the continued healing of your wounds," I nodded slightly. "I and all my team of nurses are happy to serve you, here. I suggest that you refrain fr
Annulment PapersI WAS quietly reading a book in my room when I heard three knocks outside my door. I looked up when it spat at mommy."Darling... you have visitors downstairs,"My mouth fell open. I am immediately curious about who it is. "Who is it, mom?" my question to her. I feel excited about her answer."Damien's mother," she answered me. "Come on, dear, face down your mother-in-law."I feel disappointed. I don't even know why I feel that way. But I gathered to nod slowly. "Okay mom, I'll be going to face her in quite a while."Mommy smiled at me and nodded. "We will wait for you downstairs, baby." She said then left me in my room.I sighed. I stood up and sat in front of my dresser. I looked at my face in front of the big mirror. I lost a lot of weight because of what was happening to me."Who do you think will be your guest, Aurora? Are you disappointed right now because he's not the one downstairs? Are you expecting him to come and pay a visit?" it suddenly came out of my mou
Perfect PlanI WAS at a restaurant with my friends. It was my first time leaving the house, I didn't leave the house for a month. My life just revolved in three cycles. Sleep, eat and garden. I spent my time planting and reading so that I don't remember the tragedy that happened in my life, especially the constant crying of my lost child."What are you going to do now? Is your life really going to revolve around your house?" Nancy asked as the waiter who served our meals left.I shook my head. "No, I'm just preparing myself. I enjoy living in our house because mommy and I will leave that house at any time.""Huh? Why are you leaving that house? That's your house, right?" Cedy immediately frowned."That's what I thought when I married him. But no, now that the marriage is about to end, mommy and I will leave it. It's been theirs since the Harrisons bought the title from the bank where Daddy mortgaged it.""As in, will they take it back forcefully?" Nancy frowned.I shook my head again.
New BeginningHOTEL ALFONSO, SEVILLEThe Hotel Alfonso, Seville is a perfect example of the combined Moorish and European influences that epitomize the Sevillian style. There is an expansive garden and pool area to enjoy the sunny outdoors. There are also restaurants ranging from outdoor cafes to gourmet that is also available onsite."Hey?"I looked up at the open door of my room. I smiled and adjusted my seat."Yes, mom?"Mommy came to my bed and sat there. "Are you busy, dear?" she asked looking at my laptop."Not really, mom. I'm just doing research at the Alfonso Hotel.""Where will you be working for the next few days?" she asked me."Yes, look. Here it is..."Mommy looked at the pictures on the laptop monitor. "Nice and wonderful hotel," he looked at me. "Are you sure of your decision, Aurora?"I breathed and folded the laptop then faced her. "Yes, Mommy... I've made up my mind, especially now that I've accepted the job offered to me by the owner of that establishment."She smi
Hotel ManagerONE YEAR LATER!I AM busy helping the crew of Hotel Alfonso, we are rearranging the table and chairs. We added new ones because we were lacking so much almost every day. Hotel Alfonso is one of the places people go to in Spain. As a manager of the luxury restaurant of Alfonso hotel, I have to address everything that is lacking and needed there."I think we should put it here," I said in the English language.Well, it's a good thing that the worker there knows the English language, otherwise, I would definitely be the one in trouble.I have been working there for a year. I might say, I am already entertained and I love my job as a manager in that restaurant even more. I am learning their language, I tried but I am not speaking pure Spanish. My boss was more impressed with me, so within a year, I won many awards and competitions as an executive. My career flourished as one of the best in that field."Ms. Aurora,"I turned to the person who call my name. "Oh, yes, Maca?" Ma
