A month has passed… Eunice, Trish, and her husband were quietly eating breakfast. Eunice had not been feeling well since earlier. She had only managed to get up to prepare breakfast for her husband and best friend. Trish and Travis kept glancing at her from time to time. Suddenly, she felt nauseous and quickly got up to run to the bathroom, where she threw up repeatedly. Trish followed her and approached her, worriedly rubbing her back. “Are you okay, Bes? You seem to have been like this since yesterday. You're extremely lethargic; are you sick?” Trish has noticed Eunice's condition since yesterday. She was so weak that she seemed reluctant to move around and wasn't eating much. After Eunice finished vomiting, she rinsed her mouth and leaned against the sink, feeling weak. “I just feel unwell, Bes. I've been feeling this way since yesterday.” “Why didn't you say so? You should have rested,” Trish said, shaking her head. “If I don't do anything, you an
Trish came out of the mansion with clenched fists. Meanwhile, Eunice just leaned on the sofa, praying that she wasn't pregnant. After half an hour, Trish returned and handed four pregnancy tests to Eunice. “Here, use them. Take one to the bathroom and reserve the others. I'll wait here, okay?” “Alright, bes.” Eunice took the tests and went to the bathroom. Trish sat nervously on the single sofa, waiting for the results. Eunice was also nervous as she took the tests and opened them to drip her urine. After dripping the liquid on the test, she closed her eyes and breathed deeply before slowly opening her eyes to check the result. Two lines… Positive... She is pregnant! She felt weak and had to hold on to the sink. Trembling, she took the pregnancy test and went out of the bathroom. When she came out, she saw her friend, who was worried. Eunice's pov “What's the result? Is it positive?” She asked while looking at me. I tremblingly handed the p
After she finished packing, she texted Trish to come to her room. Within a few minutes, Trish knocked on her door. When she opened it, she was met with Trish's worried face. Trish immediately entered the room and locked the door. “What happened? I didn't leave my room because I didn't want your brother to suspect anything. What did he say when you told him you were leaving him?” Trish asked. She was crying and shaking her head to respond. “He just made it clear to me that he still loves Mayell. There's nothing left for me, so it's better if I go away. I can't handle it anymore. I'm tired, and I give up. You were right earlier; he doesn't deserve our child. I'll leave and start a new life with our child. Like you said, I'll pursue my dreams. I'll forget about Travis,” she said as tears streamed down her face. “Shhh, don't cry, Bes will affect your baby. If that's your decision, I'll help you. I'll take care of you and your child. I bought a resort in Cebu that my
TRAVIS He was annoyed when he turned off the alarm clock on his side table. “D*mn, my head hurts so much. I'm really lacking sleep. Lately, I've been going to this VIP bar where Mayell hangs out. I watch her from afar and keep an eye on her. And earlier, I came home in the early morning because I followed her to make sure she got home safely to her condo.” He sat on the bed and picked up his cellphone. He furrowed his brow when Aaliyah's text message appeared on his phone. He wondered why his wife was texting him, as she never usually does. In the early morning hours, Aaliyah vented her frustrations last night about how he was being treated. He opened the text to read it. As he read it, he felt like cold water had been poured on the seat he was sitting on. “Good morning, Travis. "First of all, I'm sorry and thank you. I hope you will be happy now. I hope you can get Mayell so you won't have to struggle anymore. Travs, as you read this message, I
While Travis and his parents were talking, Trish had been listening. She had been sitting on the top step of their staircase, listening to what her brother was saying as he tried to explain why Eunice had left the mansion. Because they were all busy, they didn't notice her presence. When she couldn't take it anymore, she stood up and walked down the stairs. `Prepare yourself, brother;I will avenge my friend. You are my sibling, but I will choose my best friend, who you mistreated and did not value.` she said to herself. “Really, brother? Did you two really not understand each other, or is there another reason why Eunice left?” she asked seriously as she walked towards them. Her father, mother, and brother turned to look at her. “Trish,” Travis said weakly. Despite his soft tone, there was still a hint of a threat. “What? Are you afraid they'll find out why my best friend Xs left us? That's why my friend left me! " She suddenly raised her voice. This w
“The validity of their marriage is only for one year. That's what my older brother told Eunice's dad, and during that one year, whenever you're around, they should pretend to be sweet so that you won't notice that they're not okay. You should think that their relationship is improving because my brother doesn't want to be tied down for too long. He said that to Eunice because he still loves Mayell. Every night, he goes to that woman just to watch over her and just to catch a glimpse of her. Eunice knows all of that, but she understood my brother and endured everything for him. That's how much my friend loves him. Troy looked at his eldest son, trembling in disbelief at what he had just heard. He gave his son a stern look. “Is it true, Travis?! Is everything your sister said true?! Your marriage contract is only valid for one year!? Did you meddle with it?” He shouted in anger. He was about to stand up, but his wife stopped him. “Honey, calm down. You might hurt
Travis composed himself and looked at his sister. “You!” He said pointing his sister. Trish raised an eyebrow at her brother's reaction. Was he pretending again? She thought to herself. “What?” she replied grumpily. Suddenly, her brother messed up her hair, “What the.. brother! What are you doing!?” She annoyingly pushed his hand away, but then she saw her brother's genuine smile. “Thank you for your words; what you said woke me up. I really have been acting like an idiot. I even dragged Aaliyah into my foolishness.” Trish stood up and faced her brother. “Well, it's good that you realise your mistake. It had to happen for you to see what you've done wrong. Now fix yourself up and find my best friend. But let me tell you this, it's hard to find someone who doesn't want to be found, so you need a lot of patience. Right now, Eunice has been missing for two days, and we're having a hard time finding her, so you need to have patience and do everything you can
“What!? Why? Why didn't she agree? Did you do everything?” Travis asked, slightly irritated. “Yes, brother. I even went to her company to talk to her, but I only talked to her secretary,” Trish replied sadly. She was excited because they had already chosen a model for the company event and a designer but everything was gone. Looks like they need to search again. “D*mmit, why didn't she accept? Why didn't she agree to be a model and a designer? We're even going to pay her a big amount,” Travis exclaimed. “I don't know either, brother. Others I talked to there said they don't have any other projects right now, and they have free time, so I was wondering. Then I told her secretary if I could talk to her, but she really refused, so I just went back to the company. What do we do now, brother? Should we just look for someone else?” Travis rubbed his forehead. He thought everything would be fine once they found a model and a designer, but it turns out it wasn't easy to
