The Castro family, together with Jun, had a pleasant supper that night and, they had a small conversation while eating. The discussion; was mainly centered on the children’s school life and, after a while, it shifted to the adults talking about their working life.
After they- were done with their supper, Angelo’s mother began to wash the dishes. Angelo and Jun went back to the living room- to continue studying while Mr. Castro- was watching his favorite TV show- beside them. Angelus, on the other hand- as soon as he was done- with his meal. He went straight- to his room- to continue with the match- that was- postponed; earlier since his mom had barged- into his room- unannounced.
Angelo was trying- to concentrate on what- he is; reading. But he was unable- to do so since the volume- of the TV was so loud- that it hinders Angelo; To fully; understand- what he is; reading. Even Jun had long lost his focus on- what he was studying and was now happily chatting with Angel
It was a typical yet bustling day inside a particular supermarket; the reason for its overly busy day was all because the people were trying to benefit from the clearance sale held inside the establishment. While most people were having a fierce battle in buying the goods that had an enormous amount slashed from the original price, a single distinct person was trying to avoid the large crowds of people.That person is a woman who was distinctive among the crowds of people since she is the only woman wearing an overly large dress and sporting a swollen belly. As she lightly rubs her belly, the woman looks at the crowded people with envy before looking at her big stomach. The woman smiled when she felt a light kick in her stomach. She then turned her body in the crowd's opposite direction and tried to grab a box of cereals in the utmost section of the shelf.The woman tried to stand on her toes as she tried to reach the cereal, and when she could not get even a single bo
“I’m going to go back to my room,” Aimie tried to steady her breathing since she was flustered by Mark’s back hug. “You better leave now if you don’t want to stay on the road driving the whole night.” “I know you’re mad because of what I have told you during the party, and I don’t know what to do for your anger to vanish. Tell me what I should do for you to forgive me.” Angelo muttered as he leaned his face on the nook of Aimie’s neck. Aimie felt the breathing of Mark against her neck; goosebumps instantly appeared all over her body because of how close Mark was to her. For a moment, Aimie doesn’t know what to do with how things progress, it was just a few minutes ago when Mark was leisurely sitting on the couch with a haughty look on his face, but now he was trying to earn her forgiveness. This action of Mark made Aimie feel weird since, although she had grown used to Mark’s loving gestures, it was her first time to see him sincerely ask for forgiveness. Tho
Thinking about those things made Aimie unconsciously shed a tear. She felt that her life would be simple now than when she was still Angelo, but she didn’t expect to experience so much heartache in Aimie’s body.If she had the chance to see the original Aimie next time, she would be sure to ask for a reward from her since all that was given to her was grief when she had possessed the original Aimie’s body. She made a mental note to take all the money of the real Aimie, including her pocket money, to spend it lavishly for her around the world voyage after this whole ordeal is done.Her daydreaming came to a halt when Mark unexpectedly wiped the tears that accumulated from the corner of her eyes. Aimie winced and was about to back away from Mark when Mark had tightened her hold on her waist suddenly.“What do you think are you doing?” Aimie tried to create some distance away from Mark using all the force her body had, and as she did s
It was as if time had stopped between the adults that were inside the house. No one wanted to break the heavy atmosphere around them, as if they were all comfortable about their hefty feelings. But soon, the suffocating feeling vanished when a loud wail of the child that Aimie was holding was heard throughout the entire house of Rain.They simultaneously looked at the child in Aimie’s arms with a look that was a combination of curiousness, bewilderment, anxiousness, and peevishness. While the attention was still on the child, Aimie glanced at Angelus’s way; her gaze was full of pleading since she didn’t know what to do with the child in her arms.Before the child’s wail could escalate, Angelus had fortunately seen the look of help in Aimie’s eyes. Angelus quickly took his younger sister in Aimie’s arms and carried his younger sister with a bottle of milk in his other hand.“Do you perhaps have a spare room so that my you
The soft and white ball with a pair of chubby hands and feet hugged Angelus tightly, and because of the height difference between the soft as mochi child and Angelus, the lovely child could only hug Angelus’s leg.The child’s big pair of sparkling eyes, completed with plump reddish cheeks, would make anyone feel in love with the lovable child. Seeing the cute interaction between Angelus and the adorable child made Aimie feel jealous since she also wanted to pinch the child’s chubby cheeks.While Aimie was dying in enviousness, the child hugging the leg of Angelus suddenly looked at Aimie’s way, making Aimie flinch for a second before giving the child a friendly smile. Even if she wanted to hug the child but given her current situation, it seems Aimie couldn’t act friendly with the cute child since she is just a stranger.Unbeknownst to Aimie, she gave a facial expression, a; mixture of longing and sadness that the child couldn&rsquo
Standing in front of a familiar place, Aimie’s conviction of living the life of the original Aimie faltered slowly. The once place she never thought she would get to see again was now before her. Aimie wanted to curse out whoever was playing with her conviction. The resoluteness she had of not seeing the parents Angelo had grown up with fell down the drain the instant she was standing right in front of the house that had the memories of the family she had missed so much.As Aimie was standing right in front of the house, recollection of the past flashed through her.Every time Angelo returned home, this house would greet him, and though his parents rarely returned home because of work, it didn’t feel like the abode was empty. The lingering warmth didn’t make him think that this house made him lonely, but why does this house who would always bring him comfort now feel as though it had become melancholic.“Is it alright for me to be here?&r
