Forgotten Hues of Love 1
"Yula..." It was my mother's soothing voice. I tried to erase the name inside my head that has been bothering me to distraction since last night.I shifted my gaze from the dark sky to my mother. With a small smile, I faced her. I was greeted by her tired eyes. They were full of longing that I couldn't identify if what is it for. "Ma..." I whispered softly, almost inaudible.She let out a deep sigh as she walked over to me. Her steps were gentle and quite. She reached my cheek and carresed it softly. I closed my eyes, feeling the warmth brought by her fingers. "Is there something wrong? Tell me, honey. I have been calling you and it seemed that you were so engrossed with your own thoughts. You just kept on staring into the horizon..."I shook my head as a response but her gaze remained observant, scrutinizing me. "It was nothing, Ma. I just remembered the movie that I watched with Lucille yesterday. The ending was very sad and it still breaks my heart whenever I think about it." I

I was full of doubts. My chaotic mind was slowly swallowing my whole being, leaving me hopeless. While staring at the letter, I feel nothing but coldness, as though something uncanny showed in each of the letters that were written there. My palms were sweating and trembling. It was the worst feeling and I hate it. I hate it so much.I have been thinking about nothing but this letter since last night. Who's that man? Why did he give me this letter? What is he trying to tell me?I swallowed hard as I felt the throbbing in my head. It was unbearable. I squeezed my eyes shut, almost hurting them. My grip tightened around the piece of paper. I exhaled excessively multiple times.I was catching my breath when the throbbing pain had slowly subsided.I dropped my gaze to the letter. It became a bit crumpled. Sighing, I stood up and walked over to the cabinet. I rummaged through it until I found the small box. I hid the letter inside it.When I was about to close the box, suddenly, I heard a

"There's nothing special or important thing happened in your life before the accident, Yula. So if I were you, I wouldn't even bother to think about my past. I and Papa are both farmers. We are poor. If there's anything we can consider special, that is when you became the mayor's mistress," my brother casually said.I pursed my lips as I tried to decipher his words. Why did I do that? I've been hearing about this many times but I can't make myself believe in any of those rumors. I can never accept that I once ruined a family. I heard that the mayor has three children and his wife has a chronic disease. Why did I let that happen? What was I thinking? Whenever I try to remember anything, even just a bit from my past, I never succeeded. It just gives me a severe headache."That was a long time ago, Kevin. It was your sister's mistake. We should forget about that." My father emphasized each word."What? I didn't say anything! It was not my intention to offend her. I'm just trying to tel

"Where did you get those?" I asked, confusion filled my voice. A bouquet of blue and red roses was placed on our table. There was also a small pink teddy bear beside it. I just woke up and those were the first thing I have noticed in our small living room.My mother shrugged her shoulders while looking at the flowers. "They are from Simoun. They are so beautiful, aren't they?"I pouted. I walked over to the flowers and inspect it. They were so beautiful to look at, I admit. But I just can't help but feel a bit confused because this is the first time that Simoun sent flowers. Usually, he will just drop by in our house if he has something to give. And I didn't receive any message from him that he sent me these stuff. "Are you sure that they are from Simoun?" My voice was filled with doubt. I opened my phone to type a message for Simoun.- Did you send flowers?Just a seconds had passed, I received a reply from him.Simoun:- No. Why? Have you eaten your breakfast?I pursed my lips, sta

I do not know if I should be thankful about the thought that it has been a whole month since the last time I felt scared. Now, I feel like I am safe. Maybe whoever that was had already stopped or they probably realized that the they won't get anything from doing that."I bought you some food. I cooked more than enough," Sol said as she visited at night with a plastic container in her hand.I smiled before taking the container."Thank you so much, Sol. Have a seat for. My mother cooked some sweet potato. I will get you some," I uttered but she just shook her head and smiled."Thank but no need, Yula. I just finished having dinner. My stomach can't take another food anymore, dear.""You might want to bring some so you could try it tomorrow.""Oh. Yes! That is perfect. That is my nephew's favorite."I moved quickly and went to our kitchen. After putting the sweet potato in the container, I went back to the living room where Sol was.Sol thanked me before she went home. She always brings

"Before you take a shower, bring this to Sol first, Yula."I blew a sighed when I heard my mother. I turned around and went back to the kitchen to get the rice cake.Whenever I think about what happened last night, I can't help but be annoyed. He does have not the right to talk to me like that! Does he own the street?! I was right! That Rael has some attitude problem!I chose to follow Mama's order even though I really wanted to refuse. Surely, I would see that jerk. My annoyance for him has not disappeared yet. If he ever say something that I will not like, I swear, I am going to punch him!I rolled my eyes when I saw him at their garden. The jerk was not wearing any top again!When his eyes drifted at my direction, he just furrowed his brows. I stopped myself from frowning at him. It was too early for him to ruin my day.I showed him the plastic container."My mother wanted to give you this. She made this yesterday." I tried to hard to talk in a calm voice.He threw the hose nonchal

We were just silent while we were on the car. I should not have came with them. Rael is here. But Sol did not let me not to go with them. She said that it is better for me to go outside even once in a while.Rael was behind us. He was carrying all the things Sol had bought. I offered my help but he did not let me. We did not even talk until we reached home. I did not have anything to say. And I think his mood was not good because whenever my eyes glanced at him, his forehead was always in creased.When I reached home, I just read Simoun's message.Simoun:– I just got home safely. I love you.I heaved a deep sigh and typed immediately.– Ok.I put down my phone on the bed before I went to the bathroom to take a shower."This is a lot. We even have two cakes! Is someone having birthday every single day?"I saw my brother peeking at the boxes on the table."Yeah. I think we have to give the other to our neighbors. Won't Simoun be angry?" My mother looked at me. I sat and grabbed one don

I was silent as we ate our dinner. I did not glance at Rael even though I could feel him glancing at me every so often. I just swiftly rolled my eyes whenever I think about our argument earlier.He said they did not fuck. That is bullshit."Is it delicious, Rael? What can you say? Is it salty or a bit bland for your taste?" My mother asked, referring to the kare-kare that she cooked.I glanced at him. He was sitting across me. I noticed that he was eating slowly. Every swallow, he gulps it down with water. My brows furrowed. It seems to me that he didn't like the food.He smiled after he puts down the water."It tastes really good. You cooked it very well," he replied politely.My brows raised up. Liar. I could clearly see that he was just forcing himself to eat it. He was literally shoving it into his mouth and drunk lots of water. But I understand that he did not want to offend my mother.Our eyes met. He held my gaze for a long time but I broke it off. I continued eating."Really?
