Trevor laughed in his seat and brushed the corner of his mouth.
"Fierce. I always liked that about you, Jill. How are you? We barely see each other."
I picked up my knife and fork and started slicing the meat again.
"Don't lie. You know that you know that I have been avoiding you."
"Are you? But why?"
Cathy was just across us smiling widely at us.
"You know why. Don't make me repeat the words I've told you in that room. It might hurt again because you know that I'm right. Your marriage with Sandy is on the rocks now."
Trevor did not show any sign of emotion when I said that. He just continued drinking and glancing at me.
"You never know. You have not been around in our circle for years now. I'm surprised that the CEO of the Buenaventura Group of Companies has still have time for gossips like this."
"Well, gossips don't just come out

"That was harsh."I ignored Cathy and kept on reading the document in hand."You went below the belt last night, Jillian. You should have seen Trevor's face when you told him about Brad and Sandy. He looks defeated."I shrugged my shoulders and adjusted the frame of my glasses."That's not my problem anymore, Cathy. He barged into our beautiful night and ruined it so he should get the same feeling."She crossed her arms and stood up to transfer to the chair in front of my desk from the couch on a corner."Tell me honestly, Jill. Do you still feel something for him? I witnessed how you were crazy for him from years back. Are you really done with him or this is just your way of getting your revenge?"I smirked and shook my head. I can't believe how far her imagination had come."Cathy, I know how I was bordering to insanity during those times and I also know how that ended in a very nasty way. Trevor is not good for my overall we

"Good evening Ms. Buenaventura," greeted the man who opened the door for me towards the convention hall."Good evening."I held my head up high and ambled my way to my designated table in this massive glass building.Some people I know by face came up to me and shook my hands. Some tried to approach my table but a quick glance at them stopped their plans to fruition.It was the biggest annual gathering of business sectors across the country which is organized by a government agency to discuss new avenues and agenda for the both parties involved.Of course I cannot miss this event. It has become a tradition. My mother did not miss any year of the event and for the past years, I have carried on the culture."Good morning, Ms. Buenaventura."I inhaled the familiar scent of the newcomer who shamelessly occupied the seat beside me and put his arms on the back of my chair

"Sorry? I don't need that right now anymore." I yanked away his hand from my wrist and drank the water in my other hand. "That was all in the past now, Trevor. Let's move on. I discarded you in my life for a reason. I hope you'd do the same for me.""I can't, Jill."My face turned into a hard one. "And why is that?" I asked while looking at him straight in the eyes."Because I want you back in my life."I waited for a moment for him to say that it is just a joke or a prank but he looks so serious sitting there that I couldn't help but burst out laughing.Some people were looking at our direction so I grabbed the napkin and covered my mouth."Oh my god! That was a good laugh. I haven't had that much laughter for years now. Thank you very much."I wiped the tears off my face and drank on my glass again."I swear that was a good joke. You can lau

“What? What did he say?”“He said he loved me and he wants me back. What an asshole, right?”Cathy’s mouth grew wider upon hearing it.“What? Did Trevor really said that? I can’t believe it!” she exclaimed and sat on her bed. I went straight into her condo after that scene in the comfort room with Trevor. I cannot think straight. The last thing I want to do is go back to the office and just stare at nothingness. I needed someone to talk to. I needed a friend.“Neither was I! I don’t know what he’s thinking for crying out loud! He just said it out of nowhere. I thought saying that he loves me last week when we had our dinner is enough as a joke but then he surprised me by telling me that he wanted me back in his life.”Cathy pulled over the sheets onto her neck and bit her lips to keep herself from smiling.

“Fuck it!” I shouted after I slammed the door behind my back. Tears started rolling down my eyes as I replayed the scenes in my head.I just came from the security room to retrieve the whole video of when Trevor visited my mother when she was still alive.“Mom, I don’t want to hate you. You know that I love you, you know that. I cannot even afford myself to hate you even after all that. But mom, why? W-Why… do you have to do that? Why?! You know how I loved him so much!”I leaned on the wall to support myself while still weeping. I am questioning everything. I am questioning if after all those years if I really knew who my mom was but after watching the whole video, it seemed like I did not have any idea of what my mother is really like.I sat on the floor and put my hands on my face. I can still see Trevor’s face in my mind as he begs for my mother to let him be with me until I am able to function on my own after Laurie’s death. Instead, my mother slapped hi

Someone was tossing beside me on my bed and making all these squeaky noises right above my head. I opened my eyes and looked at my side to see my son lying next to me and pinching a duck toy where all of that sound is coming from. Smiling, I sat on my bed and scooped him in my arms.“Good morning, my little one.”I kissed my boy on his neck and he began giggling while pulling on my hair.“Morning ma-ma,” he said in between his laughing breathes.I went back to lie on the bed with him on my chest and stared at my boy who got nothing from me except for the shape of his face. His face is the exact replica of his father. I am even tempted to think that part of me was able to move on gradually from Trevor because I have his mini me in my house.“Ma-ma, p-play.”He struggled to get up so I helped him up. He pulled the hem of my lingerie and pointed at the open door of his playroom. I really made some adjustments in all the room of our

“What are you doing here, Mr. Scott?” I asked sternly the moment I landed on the last step of the stairs and saw the man on his back at me while looking up at the whole corner of the living room where we placed all sets of family pictures. My hands went cold at the possibility that he might see a picture of our son. When that happens, I knew that I have to tell him the truth.I glanced at the frame he is holding and exhaled a breath. I remembered asking the maids in the house the other day to take all the pictures of Zeus in that area and transfer it to the dedicated mini gallery upstairs where I hang all of our pictures together.“Whatever you wanted to talk to me, you could have at least schedule a meeting with my secretary. Sorry but I do not entertain guests on Sundays. It is family time. You can leave.”I motioned at the open door on his side to emphasize my point but he did not move. He returned the frame on the cabinet and walked to me.“I wanted to ta

“Cathy, what is he doing here? I barred him from the event already.”I glanced at Trevor from my peripheral vision and then back to Cathy who does not even mind the panic in my voice.“Relax, Jill. Trevor is harmless. I have already talked to him and he promised me that he meant no harm for tonight. He has just some business with some of our guests.”“Well, that does not answer my question. I specifically instructed the guards to block him from the list so why do I see him loitering around my party?”“I let him in, Jill. Come on. Don’t give me that look. Would you prefer him to cause a scene outside because the great Trevor Scott was not granted an entrance to a gathering of the most influential businessman in the country?”I drank on my glass as I surveyed the crowd of men in their expensive suits and women in their flashy gowns inside the country’s biggest coliseum that was built by no less than the man I abhor. Cathy is right. It will not be a
