CHAPTER 39: The Wake
KATE’s P.O.V.
Dad’s death was too sudden, to the point that we didn’t... I didn’t got a chance to bid my final goodbyes to him. Mom and I are still grieving right now, but we chose to be tough just like how we always does.
“Mom... I’m sorry...” I suddenly burst out into tears as Mom helped me fix my hair in front of the mirror.
I could see how hard she tried to suppressed her tears by looking at her reflection in the mirror.
“It’s not your fault, sweetie. It’s not anyone’s. It’s just happened... We didn’t know how much time we left with him...”
“I’m sorry if I didn’t come home right away. I should have been here... I should’ve been with you...”
“Shhh... I’m sure your Dad is happy now wherever he is... Now that he finally saw you come home. Don’

KATE’s P.O.V. As he slowly walk towards my direction, I felt numb, unable to move my feet. I blinked several times, trying to make sure that everything I’m seeing right now is real.“Kate...” he melancholically smiled at me. “We met again... I’m sorry for your lost...” He put the rose at the top of my Dad’s coffin before returning his gaze upon me. When I still didn’t say a word, he reached for my hand, and I felt his warm touched me once again.“I understand if you’re still not ready to face me... But please... Say something, anything, Kate...” I didn’t say a word. Instead, I pulled his hands towards the little garden of this funeral home before I finally let him go. There, we both stood up like an idiot for it’s his turn to be as silent as me before.“Elij
His Rectifying Graze CHAPTER 41: Dead Hearts
KATE’s P.O.V. I can’t understand the concept of suffering not until this moment... When we are going to buried Dad as he continue to sleep forever in his peace. I thought the world had already hurt me a lot, but I was wrong. The scars of the past is nothing compared to the pain of this one. Mom and I decided not to cry... Not because we are not sad... But because we are trying to show to those people how strong and tough we are. I know it’s just fine to cry your heart out... But the both of us wanted to have peace, and chose to endure our suffering on our own. Mr. Herrera, Claire, Darren, and their daughter Cloey, joined the last and final moments of my Dad.

His Rectifying Graze CHAPTER 42: A Hundred Smiles
KATE’s P.O.V. I woke up having a wide smile plastered upon my face. It felt nice, having someone who could give you that peace of mind. I know Elijah wouldn’t cheated on me. I trust him enough... And even though he didn’t promised, I know he wouldn’t. Even though Elijah and I haven’t talk about anything to do for today, I feel the need to prepare myself before going down to our dining room, where my Mom is currently preparing our breakfast.“Hey, you’re looking good, sweetie. How’s your sleep?” she asked me.“It’s... Great, Mom. I think it is.”“Well that was good to hear. Come then, I prepared something for you.” She took out a plate for me before putting a cup of garlic fried rice onto it. She added some bacons and fried eggs, and I instantly felt the hun

KATE’s P.O.V. Elijah asked me to go out with him, as we officially started counting our precious exchanges of smiles. He said that he will take me anywhere that I wanted, in any places that will make me smile. And so, I requested him to bring me to our old high school building... The tallest building in our campus, to be specific. While driving, Elijah often glance at my direction for I can’t stop myself from staring at his handsome face. I mean, how could the world be so unfair sometimes? He’s too cute for a guy. I hope I can have even just twenty-five percent of his looks.“Will you stop drooling over me? It kind of starting to freak the hell out of me...” He laughed.“Sorry.” I blushed out of embarrassment. “I just... I couldn’t help it,” I shamelessly admitted.“That’s cute,” he stated, his eyes stil

KATE’s P.O.V. Elijah take me in his small apartment, and it feel great, being in this place once again. I look around the inner part of his home. It’s so good to know that he didn’t even thought about changing his address for the past few years of his life. Because if he did, I’m pretty sure that I wouldn’t be able to find him anymore if ever that I did came back here myself.“What are you thinking?” I nearly squeal as I suddenly feel his lips on my temple.“Shit! You startled me!” I complained.“Sorry,” was his short response. Though he managed to wrapped his hands around my waist.“Elijah?” I called him, badly wanting to tell him something that is been bothering my mind ever since we became an official couple... Which is one thing that I didn’t expect to happen. Who would have thought that my friend way back in high school would
His Rectifying Graze CHAPTER 45: Scary History Part I
KATE’s P.O.V.“Tomorrow is Cloey’s birthday. Darren and Claire are inviting us to have a dinner with them.” I stopped for a moment, thinking about that invitation. Would I allow past to prevent me from leaving a normal and happy life? Of course not. I will try my best to beat that horrifying history of mine. Maybe in that way, Claire and I could finally have a closure... Or maybe reconcile, even better.“Hey...” I felt Elijah’s hands on both of my shoulders.“Y-Yeah?”“Would you come there with me? I promise I will be there... I won’t leave your side, Kate... Never again.” I smiled at him, before tiptoeing to give him a quick smack on his lips. He chuckled, before pinching my nose.“So, would you come with me then, Ms. Frias?”“Sure, Elij. I will come with you.&rdqu

KATE’s P.O.V.“A journal?” Elijah asked.“Yeah... I told you, you wouldn’t like it,” I said, looking at Cloey’s direction.“I do like it’s color, Aunt Kate. It matches the dress of my Barbie dolls that Uncle Elijah gave to me... But what is this?” she curiously asked.“Uhm... That was a journal, baby. Your personal diary... I mean, if you grow old someday, you will realize things... Things that you couldn’t ask to another person because you will be afraid or scared to make them think that you are weird or something... So if ever that you have some questions about yourself and you don’t know whom to ask it, you can write it down in here...”“Really? Will I be able to find the answer then?”“Maybe... As time passes by, if you read the first pages of this diary, you will finally be able to answer that question all by yourself. It’s
His Rectifying Graze CHAPTER 47: The Encounter
# KATE’s P.O.V. The next morning, nobody came to talk to me, nor bother to text me something... Or even a simple greeting. There is no one’s name registered on my phone, or anything. Maybe Elijah is indeed really mad at me. But why? I’m only trying to protect myself from being hurt once again. I took a deep breath, before deciding that I should probably go to some place that could make me happy... A place where I could temporary forget about everything, including all of our problems. I didn’t want to hurt Elijah that way, it’s just that I’m having a hard time to give my complete trust to someone for I know that it could ruin me once again. And so after preparing myself, I grabbed my purse as I decided to come to the mall and treat myself for apparently no reason at all.&nbs
