Jay Pov...I felt relieved when I talked to him last week, the pain of mommy's death is no longer that painful every time I remember her. I tried to block in my memory as the memories of her living were unbearable and feeling sorry for her. I wanted to be in her place.My heart swells with happiness knowing someone else remembers her. I didn't visit our home in Quezon for a long time as it reminds me of her. I'm sorry mom! I promise to check this Saturday. I'm sure the place looks terrible. I have never given a chance to visit in 10 years. I can still remember mommy struggling to catch her breath while living in that place. It's an awful sight. It suffocates me when I recall all her memories. I sighed, closing my eyes as a tear was tingling my eyes. "I miss you, mom, wish you were here" My desperate cry every time I close my eyes and I remember her.The ride back to our once home was calming. I smiled while listening to the lovely music playing on my stereo bringing back the happy m
Donato Pov...Bring back memories that I will always miss. My second home turned into my vacation home if I just needed it. As they say, face your fears and we can't prevent the inevitable just like today."Hello, Philippines!" I inhaled standing outside the airport.Booking a grab going to my brother's place. He has a house here but seldom comes here. He bought it when we found out Eva was here but never had the chance to see her. Though he didn't see her, he still kept the house.While I was in the cab I called James. I couldn't suppress my excitement. I miss our old lives and what we used to do but changed when he got married. A bit hurt feelings in there but I loved him and I wanted him to be happy and she was his happiness.Calling James..."Hello." James answered the phone."Brother, I'm already here. How are you? When is the best time to visit you?" I ask him eagerly. A lot of things I wanted to talk about including his marriage."Oh! Donato! Good to hear you are already here."
For the last time, I drop by here at Quezon to check Jay's house before going to his condo. I'm delighted to see the flowers bloom as lively as I expected. The bonsai plants are attractive around the mini garden. This place is stunning and perfect to get away from the city. I will come to visit this place again when I come here. I hope I can bring someone with me to make the visit memorable and incomparable.My hands sweat as I stand in front of Jay's condo. A strange feeling is driving me nuts. I feel goosebumps and the air is thick. I shrugged the odd feeling and rang the doorbell. A rope of sadness thugs my heart thinking this is the last day I'll see him."Greg!" He hugs me tightly upon opening the door. I'm shocked, unable to move. I'm trying to comprehend what just happened."I'm sorry cousin. I'm just happy. Come in!" He said smiling as he let go of his tight hug. Still frozen and can't move."Hey! What's wrong with you?" He asks worried tapping my shoulder. Fuck! I cursed sile
Daniel Pov.. I plan to visit the Philippines on Valentine's Day to propose to Jenny again and also want to visit the Palawan branch entrusted to Jay. Jay is already pissed about letting him work alone. I deserved a couple of punches from him, but I won't let that happen. I love my damn face so much. I will surprise him this February since my January trip was canceled. I still have to face Brother Axel's wrath. I sighed. Thinking of my brother. I was startled at the loud bang of my office door. I stood up, falling on my chair to see who was my intruder. "B-Brother Axel, you're already h-" A punch landed on my face before I could finish my words... Fuck!! I cursed, touching my cracked lips. "I told you before Daniel to make sure you don't get them pregnant!" He shouted angrily as another blow landed on my face. What the fuck! "I'm sorry!" I said, hissing at his damn fucking punches. "I'm sorry! Thus, your sorry changes to the fact you have a child littering the city!" He shouted
Jay Pov...I watch her as she talks to her team. She's an efficient worker. I can't say anything against her. If I just know she's my brother's woman I treat them well. She's been with me for four years, but never had the chance to see her son.If I only knew he was my nephew I would have given them enough attention in Dubai. I throw another glance before leaving her office.After leaving the hotel, I immediately meet my friend."Boss.""Detective Han, I need your help. I need it as soon as possible.""Sure boss!""I reached him the folder containing documents he needed." I don't want to ignore this strange feeling creeping ever since I learned she's her woman. I just hope it's not what I think. That punk should have followed Jay's footsteps.*********************I listened to Uncle Donato's story about their family and why they couldn't help us because of mom's decision.I didn’t expect mom to leave because of me and chose the simple life. I'm jubilant to know I have a family, but c
Third Person Pov...Jay was elated and thrilled to know where to find his family. He wanted to tell this good news immediately to his father. The guard and even their housekeeper were surprised to see him smiling. Since the day Dana left Jay never smiled and talked only when necessary."Dad... Dad.." He immediately called as he entered the house with a radiant smile on his face. Who wouldn't, his pain comes to an end."Son, what's the fuss early in the morning?" His father asks as he runs downstairs."What's the chaos, son?" Helena cried bolting out from the kitchen holding her tea cup as well."Dad, Auntie Helena, I know where Dana is." He exclaimed happily slumping on the sofa. You can see the weight of happiness radiating than his previous visit clouded with masked happiness. "Really!" They both exclaimed."Yeah dad, one of my cousins works with her." Jay implied."Then, that's great news, honey." Helena intercepted and Jay smiled."I'll be leaving next weekend. I just need to f
Third Person Pov...Jay was busy preparing for his Dubai flight and excited to meet his yet small family. It's been a week since Greg left and he misses him as he lost a weekend buddy. They become buddies and closer than they ever expected to be. "I miss that punk!" He weasled while packing. Moments like this are best served with a chilled alcoholic drink with a buddy. Both Greg and Daniel are out of his sight.He was as well grateful for his uncle's help in sending his ticket and other necessities. His help lessens his itineraries. He is still on the clock trying to adapt to his new life as he is not used to people helping him. He used to do all his stuff aside from his lawyer.He was on his way to visit his father before leaving and time wasn't enough as he still needed to buy Cheska and Dana's needs. He had a wide smile painted on his lips, thinking of them. He can't wait for another tomorrow not to see them."I really miss them so much!" He muttered under his breath."Jay, you're
Greg Pov..."Hi, Dana. Good morning! I brought you some hot dark chocolate!" I cheekily smile greeting her. Since I came back, I have taken good care of her. She will give birth in two months. We don't know the gender yet, she wants to surprise Cheska."Thanks, Greg, I really need that.." She laughed in response."Hey! You need to slow down. Anyway, any plans?" I asked wondering what is she thinking right now."Nothing yet, but I'm a little scared to give birth alone." She answered gloomily. She's not aware I already know about them. I plan to surprise her for not telling Jay is coming over."Don't worry, I will be there Dana. I know we're not that too close like Jenny, but you can trust me." I assured her. I'm good at comforting."I know Greg. I-Its ju-" She can't hold on and burst into tears. After all, she's trying to be strong, but we are humans, we can't bear the loneliness and pains that struck us! We need to cry out and breathe.Don't worry Dana, he's coming and I'm sorry to in
