Gwyneth's POV
"Is there something that's bothering you?" Kalex asked as he stopped in front of my building.
I knew he noticed something was wrong with me. I just can't concentrate on being with him because I kept on thinking about Jase and my guilt of not telling him about our son. Whenever I look at him smiling I always wonder if he will still smiles at me like that when he finds out that I hid our child from him.
"Gwyn," He removed his seat belt and moved closer to me before he held my face for me to look at him. "You can always tell me everything... everything. I will try to understand whatever your problem is and whatever it is we'll face it together. Alright? "
He smiled at me and because of that I couldn't stop crying. I don't deserve him. I am not deserving of his love and yet here he is. I should
Gwyneth's POV"Jase! Be careful!" I told him as he walks ahead of me. We just finished eating out because today is his last day with me and mama will pick him up later.It also helped that Kalex had a meeting today so I didn't have to worry that he might see Jase and me. I also told Alex to tell me updates about Kalex' whereabouts. Someday, I'll make it up to him. I know how hard it is to him to keep something from Kalex since they are really close."Mommy this ice cream is really good. Why didn't you buy for yourself?" I stared at Jase as he ate the ice cream.Earlier because he was teasing me to buy ice cream in case I was getting cold because recently it was the strength of the rain. I look at my son as he happily eats his mango ice cream, I can see traits of Kalex in his simple gestures and I can't help but to smile.
Gwyneth's POV"Jase, go home with grandma first. I'll catch up later, alright?" She nodded his head and I kissed him before he left with my mother. I could see Kalex following Jase's gaze, as well as the two of them meeting as Mama held Jase's hand away.But my son, being the good boy that he is didn't ask me any question. I walked towards Kalex and sat on the vacant seat beside him."H-How's his wrist?""The doctor said it's just a sprain. It will heal within 2 to 3 weeks." he nodded but he was still looking in the direction where Jase came out. "They'll be there in my unit first." He was quiet for a moment before he took a deep breath and asked."Is he-is he ...?" I want to struggle. I wanted to ask if he was serious about what he wanted to ask. it is very obvious that Jase is his son.&n
Gwyneth's POV"Can I take Jase out tomorrow?" A smile instantly formed on my lips as I heard him. We just tucked Jase in his bed and I can't describe how happy I am to see him like that.Jase added that he did not want to sleep because he felt he was just dreaming. I almost cried out of happiness when I heard him. I know he has been longing to meet his father, that's why he's so happy now."Of course Kalex, he's your son too." I told him as I handed him a coffee. He was silent for a while. "Is there a problem?""I was thinking," He started as he stare at his mug in his hands. There's something really weird about him, its not his hobby to stare blankly not when he's with me. He took a deep breath before he talked again. "Do you want to marry me?" I stared at him dumbfounded of what I heard.Did I really hear it right? Did he
Gwyneth’s POV"Why didn't you tell him?" Alex asked when I finally had the guts to talk to someone about what happened. I stared at the food in front of me. Why? "Tell me."I am a coward for not saying what I truly feel. I know. Maybe I was too afraid that he won't feel the same way anymore. I am so scared to hear from him himself that he no longer loved me. I don’t want to hear because I can’t accept if ever."It's not that simple." He exaggeratedly rolled his eyes and groaned."Ugh! He loves you, you love him so what's complicated there? You're the only one who makes it so complicated.” I sighed.Yes, Kalex told me that he loves me several times but that was before he knew that we have a son. Even though I wanted to marry him, I still can't say yes because he can't even look me straight in the eyes."I don't really understand you." Alex sighed and
Gwyneth’s POV"Mommy are you ready?" I just stared at myself in front of the mirror and when I saw that my clothes were a bit tangled, I immediately fixed it. "Mommy let’s go! Daddy is waiting!"I took a deep breath before facing Jase who had been bored while waiting for me to get finished. I just can’t help not to feel anxious about my outfit since we’ll be meeting with Kalex. I should look decent and elegant even just for today. I wanted to impress him and this is a great way to start."Baby, what do you think of my outfit? Do I look good? What about the color? Does it suit me very well?" My eyes widened when Jase snapped at me. And when else did my son learn to do this?I knew it. Alex shouldn't be the one taking care of this little dude, the amount of chastity that Jase is learning."Where else did I got my visual if it weren’t for you? You’re pret
Gwyneth’s POVI walked into the building and went straight to Kalex's office. I can sense all those stares from the people here. I know others here know me because I was once Kalex’s high school friend. Maybe that’s also the reason why some of them were staring at me.I just ignored them because I have nothing to do with them anyway. I came here because of Kalex and they weren’t my goal. I also hate people looking at me, as if spotlight was pointing at me as of this moment. It looks like I’ll be their topic once I turned my back at them. These dumb as* has really nothing to do instead of focusing on their work. Tch.While walking to Kalex’s office I came across a kid chasing a ball. He was running and not looking to where he's going so I tried to avoid but he still collided with me, causing him to fall to the floor. Awts. His back must be hurt.“A
Gwyneth’s POV"Quir?" He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that I'm okay."You scared me back there." He said and shook his head."I'm sorry. She just came out of nowhere." Said a man approaching us. He seems to be the driver of the car. He helped us stand up. "I really didn't see you." The man approached me. "Are you hurt? Should I bring you two to the hospital?""No. We're fine." Quir replied with a smile and then they talked. He glanced at me before shaking hands with the driver who said goodbye."So, what are you doing here besides killing yourself?" He joked. I was embarrassed to close my eyes because of his question."I haven't seen it." Is this man like everyone who sees me like this? I looked up at him when he chuckled. Since Quir is much taller than me he put his hands on top of my head and beamed at me."Let's get some
Gwyneth’s POV"Sorry you had to wait." Kalex said as he took the seat in front of me. I stared at him intently while calling the server to give him coffee.Short stubbles are starting to grow on his chin. There are bags under his eyes and his hair is too long. To some, I'm sure he looked fine, but I know him too well to see that he's not. That's not the Kalex I know. These past few days must've been hard for him.I was making it hard for him."What do you want to talk about?" He asked after his coffee was served in front of him. His eyes made its way to mine, but then he immediately looked away. To this day he still can’t look at me."I'll go straight to the point." He nodded as he mixed his coffee. "I heard you ... at the bar. I heard what you said to Demitri." That made him look at me.His eyes are full of guilt that confirmed that everything I
