" What is that man doing here, Candy? " Zach creased his forehead as he pout his lips towards Brandon's direction.
" Leave him, Zachy. " Candice tap his arm smiling. " I've been telling him to stop coming here but he's just so stubborn. I know he's not used to this kind of work but he insisted it. So, I let him. Let's see if he will give up . " Her eyes twinkling. She thought of something. " Why don't we go to the resort? Let's leave him here and take a dip at the river." She convinced him." Why not? It's summer now, a good swim in the river will relax our minds." Zach agreed with her. The two of them went to Zach's pick up that was parked in the car port." Hey! Where are you going guys? " It was Brandon calling them while waving his hands. But they just ignore him. They didn't bothered inviting them either.Brandon clinched his fists. He's mad! He felt like strangling the neck of that son of a bitch. If he didn't know the real score betweenCrap! Where the hell in the house she will sleep now? His simple yet elegant abode had only one room , besides what's keeping him so long to come out? She wondered what he's doing inside. She wants to knock on the door but her mind is confused. She decide to stay in the living room and piled up the throw pillows in the black leather couch so she could lay comfortably . It's better that she'll sleep in the couch than wait for him to go out of the room. She's tired and she want to lay down now. He furrowed his brow when he saw her sleeping in the couch. What was she doing? He didn't realize that he fell asleep after he did the 'deed' earlier. He was exhausted that he didn't notice he'd slept in the bed. He opted to carry her and bring her inside the room. She wasn't aware of what he did because she slept like a baby. He smiled mischievously, Candice was drooling while asleep. He almost burst into laughter. She's cute! He thought.He laid her down carefully in his bed and djusted her
What the heck! What came into his mind to do that to her? What will she think of him now? A pervert for taking advantage of her? He pulled his own hair as if his strength depends on them. He left her confused earlier and now he's grumbling in the four corner of this forsaken room. How can he convince her to return to him after what happened to them? It's good that he stopped himself in time from forgetting all the way. He saw her in the kitchen preparing their lunch. He always thought of her as a mother material before but she was not his type, Not until she hunted him in his dreams. Those sleepness nights he thought of her that he doesn't want to go back with. He's happy that she's finally here with him now but she always disregard him, until what happened to them this morning. He just hope that she's not mad at him anymore. He came from outside the house when their path crossed in the living room. They didn't know how to react and just looked at each other saying nothing and then
Candice don't know how to talk or react to him. After what happened to them last night, she felt ashamed of herself . What was he thinking after? He didn't talk to her also. Maybe he was not comfortable talking about what happened to them after it.But he said yesterday that he would take her to her parents. And she beleived him, that's why she woke up early this morning.When she turned her face to the right, he saw Brandon lying next to him. She didn't remember what time Brandon stopped devouring her last night. She smiled weakly, she felt sore all over. He obviously seduced her last night but then she wantonly surrendered to him. Brandon didn't forced her to do it with him, she was just unstoppable and eager to make love with him. She remembered that she initiated everything before it happened. She was so stupid for letting him made love with her. And now, she regretted what happened between the two of them. It was a night of mistake! She thought
" Zach, meet me at the stables. " She called her friend Zach. " Hey! I was so worried about you last time. " " Please, let's talk about it later at 3pm. " She said pleading." Fine, I'll meet you there, sweetheart. " It was the first time he called her that endearment." Thanks, Zachy. " She fix herself and headed downstairs. She wore her usual get up. Her cowgirl outfit. She went straight to her car and drove it. She knew that Brandon already left after her walked out scene in the dining, she sure do that he would feel ashamed of going back here again.He will be hopeless because she will never talk to him ever. Her smile widened when he saw Zach sitting comfortably on top of his horse. She walk towards his direction and Zack immediately went down from his black stallion." Hey, Candy! " He greeted her. She responded him with a hug." I'm sorry about what happened last time. " Zach nodded." It's alright, sweetheart. Your parents told me you had a vacation with your friend from the
" Shit! " He woke up with his head throbbing in pain. How many bottles of liqour he consumed last night? He slowly got up from the bed and lean against the headboard of the bed. He massage his forehead. " Damn hangover! " He lost count of how many glasses he finished. He was just so broken last night that he didn't know how to handle it. He was so wasted. And his head got even hotter when he saw Arlene waiting at his doorstep. How did she find him? He warned his friends not to tell anyone where he was because he's currently in a mission. How can he possibly do his plan if there's a bitch who follows him here? He knew Arlene as an annoying witch. She did nothing but take advantage of his wealth. But thank God he realized before it's too late. Afterwards he fixed himself and drink a medicine for his headache. He just hope that the pain will fade immediately." Who told her, moron? " He interrogates his friend Jake. " Come down man. I'm sorry that
Still it wasn't enough. He need to try harder. Though everything was set into places. He shouldn't be comfortable about it. After all, their relationship was a one-sided love. Brandon was glad that in just a month, the wedding was set. Ah, the power of money! He's really that excited to marry the woman of his dreams. Even his father Arman went to Hacienda Villanueva to talk about their marriage. But his happiness suddenly disappear when he saw Candice talking to Zach. Both were happily smiling while hugging each other . Jealousy struck him once again. He walked passed his father and went to their direction.How many times he has to compete with this man? It's frustrating! If only Candice love him back. He'll surely feel secure and at peace.He didn't hesitate to pull him away from Candice." You asshole ! " And punch him in the face. " Brandon! Don't! " He heard Candice's panic voice. But he wouldn't listen, instead he punch Zach again. He didn't gave
" Oh man! You always say no to us. We need you this time, buddy! " Jake face reddened. He almost lost his patience when explaining to Brandon. He personally visited Brandon in his office to invite him at their boys night out tonight . But Brandon obviously ignoring his presence and is busy with his work. " I told you I'm busy, man. Maybe next time. " He spoke without enthusiasm." You always says the same, Bran. You don't have time for us because of that girl. We are your friends and we also need you. " Jake pointed at his direction. His face was a mixture of pain and sadness.Brandon disregard him and ascended from his chair." Then, you can forget me as your friend. " Jake was surprise of his reaction. " You're mad! What's gotten into that pretty little head of yours that you had to say that? We are one buddy. You are my bestfriend. I can beleive this is happening! " Brandon balled his palm and said. " I said mind your own business ! I don't wa
" Ok stop crying now. I will not say anything against him. Just stop crying, okay? " Zach don't know how to pacify her. " Shh, It's alright Candy. I'm sorry and I mean it." He tried to make her understand. " I don't want to talk about it Zach. This whole damn wedding is for my parents. And I don't want them to be upset. Besides, I'm the one to be blame all this. If only I stopped myself, all these wouldn't happened. I shouldn't felt terrible too. " Feeling low Candice wipe the tears from her eyes. " That's enough, darling. Don't worry, I will be there always for you and your baby. I don't care if Brandon wont let me, I'll still be there for you no matter what. " Zach tried to make her laugh through a joke. " Thank you, Zach. Thank you for understanding me once again. " A sly smile is plastered in her lips. She can't undo the past but she have to move on with the present. She will face this problem and she will not run from this. Their baby didn't chose this. It was their fault and
