Chapter 22
Months passed by so quickly. If Harman couldn’t visit Alodia or even see her because he was busy at work, he always called her up and talked to her, asking how she was doing.
“I just want to hear your voice after my stressful day at work,” he said one night over the phone.
“Oh, my boyfriend is so pity. What do you want? I’ll sing you a song?”
He laughed and agreed. She then sang one of her favorite songs by Selena Gomez, which was called Love You Like a Love Song.
Harman was so happy about it. She felt good when she heard him laugh. In the past few months, she gradually admitted to herself and accepted that she was truly falling for him. Yes, for real. But still, she wanted to hold back just as when she first realized her feelings. She was still afraid to be hurt in the end like Alyanna. She was just so afraid… and that was driving her insane.
She almost finished her contract with her current empl

Alodia was so happy to be with Harman whether or not she admits it. But that is when she didn’t want to listen to her annoying logical mind.A few minutes later after they took a shower together, they were surprised that someone rang the doorbell. She looked at her boyfriend and asked, “Did you expect someone to come over or did you order anything?” Her beautiful brows were knitted.He could have a surprise for her, which didn’t occur to her at all.“No,” he admitted as he opened the door.She was surprised to see Laili come in with two boxes in her hands. It was obvious they were cake and something else for dessert. She looked at Harman who was surprised as she was but just shrugged his wide shoulders.“I’m sorry to barge in, Harman. But… I was alone. Tati and the rest of the family went downtown and…” she paused when she realized Harman wasn’t alone. But she seemed

Because of what had happened on New Year’s Eve, Alodia and Harman had frequent fights. She knew she must have been unreasonable for him but she couldn’t help it. It always got under her skin whatsoever Laili would tell her. And she couldn’t even make herself distance from Harman in spite of everything.One time when she entered Harman’s condo, she met the other woman there. Again. The latter smiled at her before she bade Harman goodbye and left the two of them.Harman was sweet-talking to her that Laili was only there to give him some documents from his office. But she thought it was so nonsense that was why she was so mad at him. Meanwhile, the other woman seemed to always provoke her by doing all things possible for her to be jealous. If it wasn’t a sin to murder someone, maybe she already had done it a long time ago. The Gypsy woman just knew how to push her buttons.“Why does she have to bring that document over to your co

It was summer when Harman brought Alodia along with him to Vaslui to introduce her to his family. However, not everyone was happy to see or meet her. She could see their enmity and coldness. Only a few were sincerely happy for Harman in tagging her along to his original home.“Don’t mind them,” one of his aunts, Fairuza, said. She was quite voluptuous and wore the traditional Gypsy clothes, long colorful skirt and printed blouse. She wore some fashion accessories like dangling earrings and many bracelets. Probably some of her bracelets were made of real gold though. She had really no eye for what was real or not but she just guesstimated.They were in the kitchen at the time while Harman was out in the living room to catch up with his cousins.“It’s… not so easy to do that,” she admitted with a bitter smile.Just as she said, Flavie, Harman’s cousin walked into the kitchen with a cordless phone in her hand.

The table was ready when Laili came together with some women who were her cousins to “chaperone” her that Alodia wanted to puke. As if Laili didn’t go to the man’s condo in the middle of the night alone!Laili was surprised to see her there together with Harman. It appeared that Flavie “missed” to tell her that significant information. But then, the other woman was very fast at recovery. She kissed Harman’s cheeks like the usual greeting she does. It was months perhaps since they saw her last… after what happened in his condo that New Year’s Eve.And as usual, they ignored each other. But deep inside, she was affected by the other woman’s presence among Harman’s relatives. She seemed to be at home and was indeed very welcome there.Alodia was beside him at the table the whole time during dinner. But when the time for dancing came, she was left behind as he danced to a popular manele song

Nicoleta was looking at Alodia while she played her necklace without thought. It was the necklace that Harman gave her on her birthday. Until now, she was wearing it and she never parted with it ever since. It was the only thing that seemed to link her with him and their past.She knew that Harman hadn’t got to her when she left Vaslui on her own years ago. She went back to Iustina’s house and because it was her last week of her employment and she didn’t wish to extend her contract, she went back to the Philippines. And she wanted to accept that one that was far away from Bucharest. It was Iaşi then.“Is something wrong, Alodia? I thought you wanted to extend the contract with us.” Iustina felt sorry that she was going to leave soon.“I’m sorry, Petru, Iustina. I just don’t want to see… Harman anymore. I’ve already told you about his predicament. And I don’t think I’ll come bac

“You already took care of me and Nicu, Alodia. That was all I asked of you, right? Besides, you’ve done more than you ever know. You made me strong when my husband was gone. You came into my life and Nicu’s just in time! And believe it or not, I found the best friend in you. You never left me high and dry,” she said and laughed, quoting her. “And I want to do the same for you. I’ll be by your side to get you through this, Alodia. That’s a promise. So, you have to show me that you are strong, too. You’re not like Alyanna. You’re different from your sister. You can do this. You were able to get through this before. Why not again? Just think of it as a replay.” Her friend soothed her by rubbing her back gently.She tried to nod as she continued to cry. It still hurt especially that it was about Harman. She thought she was over him after all these years. But then, she had loved him still all these years. And nothing chan

Alodia literally jumped back because of it. Her hand was on her breast. She turned and walked away from him, as fast as she could. But Harman followed her and held her arm tightly.“Will you stop running away from me? If you do, I’ll still follow you around. You know that!” he said in a hard tone. She looked at him with desperation in her eyes. She thought he was just one of those men that she left with a broken heart. She would let them fall in love with her and leave them high and dry, and then, she was on her merry way.“How could you still follow me around when I’ve already left you? I already threw you away like garbage!” But actually, he was like a shadow that she wanted to get rid of. She had her own reasons besides her revenge on men.“Yes, I even asked myself that same question. Why am I doing this? You killed me when you left me. My heart

Alodia didn’t know how she got home because of the memories and different thoughts that bothered her. She felt like a zombie walking after she off the bus. It was even a miracle for her to arrive home still in one piece. She was so damn tired! And she fell into the couch like a defeated soldier.She stirred from her disturbed nap because of the doorbell. It was like there was an emergency. She didn’t know she’d fallen asleep when her body hit the couch. When she glanced at her wrist watch, it was already past six in the evening.“Shit! Nicu!” She ran toward the door to open it.Then, she stepped back when she saw Harman with Nicu. The kid came in and looked at her desperately for a second or two.“You’re such a loser, Alodia!” he said gaily. “You forgot to pick me up at school!” he complained in his usual gay tone. There was no grudge in this boy, which amazed her.However, she frowned at
