“Caspian, don’t you have plans to visit your wife?” the general asked his son who is chilling while sitting on the couch. Caspian stops from playing on his phone and shifted his sight on his father, “visit her? We just saw each other yesterday,” he responded.“I bet you don’t know what happened to your wife yesterday,” he wonders.Caspian suddenly felt nervous by the statement of his father about his wife, he didn’t know why he feels concern for her even though he knows that he will never like her. “What happened to her?” he can’t wait to know his father’s response.“I heard from your in-laws that she fell on the ground while decorating the Christmas tree, aren’t you updating each other or even call?” his father’s doubt.He can’t answer his father queries for he don’t really updates his wife in daily happening of his life and he don’t even know her number and don’t hope to talk to her.“My dear son, you should communicate with her. That’s the common reason why many of the couple hav
“Steph’s POV”“How many times do I have to tell you? I am NOT INTERESTED TO YOU so please stop assuming that I will fell for a playboy like you,” he didn’t move his face away, “and… can you please move aside? You are too close to me.”I pushed him away from me when he pretends to be deaf, I am afraid he will steal a kiss from me again. He is a kiss stoler and I will never let my second kiss be taken away from him.“I heard from my dad that you fell from the stairs? Why did you go upstairs when you know that you are still injured?” he asked. I didn’t know that he will be mad at me because of this simple issue, I don’t know if he is blaming me or what.“There are no other people that will decorate the entire house so since I have spare time, I volunteered to do it.”“It’ll be fine if we have or not, we are still need to remove that after the holiday had passed,” he seems to be lazy to talk about it.“But I grew up watching my mom doing this things before the Christmas day and I have bee
“Steph’s POV”“”What if you husband look for you, Steph?” Aly asked me of the possibility she thinks while she is helping me to hang my clothes in the wardrobe. We reached my friend’s apartment not so far from Pampanga.She have been working on her own for four years but lately she is staying with her family’s residence because of Mike’s friend who is always showing up and pursuing her but she isn’t her type so he always ended up being rejected.“He will not look for me and like what I told you, he have no rights to interfere in my personal life.” “When do you plan of returning home?” She inquired. “I will return whenever I want to go back, why are you kicking me out now? You can tell tome directly if you want me to leave your house,” I was kidding her.“It’s not like that, I just don’t want to be in the middle of your argument as a married couple if ever he knows what you’ve done.”“Married couple? We don’t treat each other as husband and wife so disregard the title because for me,
Two week had passed, Caspian haven’t heard news about his wife since they last met and the only thing he remembered is she warns her that she’ll leave the house if ever he’ll not change the door locked.While Caspian was on his way to his office, he unintentionally passes by his wife’s cousin who is with his buddy, Rico. The two salute to him for he is a higher official than the two.“Buddy. I haven’t noticed your cousin around, I would like to know if she’s doing fine now?” he heard a man asked about his wife’s condition that makes him wonders too.“I haven’t heard news about her too,” he heard Mike’s replied.“Did something bad happened to her like what you are saying before?” Rico doubted. Caspian’s feet automatically stride back in their direction, “wait,” he stops them and paused abruptly as Mike and Rico turns at him, they waited for him to come, “can I get Steph’s phone number?”The two is quite curious learning that he do not have a number of his wife, Rico wants to ask why h
"Aly’s POV”My tears are falling as I run to Stephanie’s car that thrown, I tried to go there even my knees are trembling. I witnessed how her car hit by another car and stumble on the road, my heart is jumping upside down but I still continued to walk on her direction and check on her. I believe and have faith in God and even in this time of difficulties, my faith becomes stronger and I was praying for my friend’s safety. I don’t want her to die just like this and I don’t want her to leave this world because she is more like a sister for me, she is the best buddy I ever have when the world seems to left, she didn’t left me behind and showed up everywhere to give solution to my problems.Steph is the most unique person I ever met in my life because even though she came from a powerful family in our barangay, she remains who she is.My whole body weakens as I saw her in a difficult situation, I wanted to wished that it was just a lie and nightmare so I can wake up whenever I want to b
“Caspian’s POV”I didn’t expected that my quiet world will turn upside down… Since I marry my wife, Steph, my peaceful life turns to a chaotic, annoying world because of her wrongdoing and I can’t avoid it.My calm heart is filled with worrisome since she appeared in my life, I suddenly felt scared that I wasn’t able to feel before and even in my entire life in this service.Only this day…I am afraid that maybe one day, I come to the point that I will not be able to protect it.Scared that maybe she will get used to it that I am always here for her just to save her.And scared… that she may deeply fall for her and I can’t let that to happen because I don’t know if I can return the love she had for me.I still remember our wedding day, that is the first time I saw her in a closer look. Her sincere smile makes my heart jumps, I don’t know what’s with her look but when she turns to me that sweet smile she is showing to everyone fades away.The wedding that I am refusing to accept makes
“My God, Steph! Why are you blaming me to what happened to you? Did I encourage you to join in racing?” Caspian was annoyed at the attitude she’s showing to him.“Well, if you didn’t called me I shouldn’t have stepped on the brake and I will be the one to win over that boatful guy!” She mumbled but it didn’t passed on her husband’s ears.“Am I the one holding the steering wheel? And now, you are still thinking of winning than you life, really, STEPH? When will you stop making troubles? I am getting tired understanding your mistakes,” he is disappointed at her.“Maybe if you stop playing with girl’s heart,” she grins. She know that he will never plan to change, “to be precise, that will NEVER HAPPEN so please, stop dreaming, my dear husband,” she uttered.“If I can’t stop you, I bet your parents can,” he is using her parents again against her.“Oh no, you don’t! You can’t decide to my life just like that because I might slip my finger and send your photos of flirting with your two mist
“You really did what you mentioned last time?!” Caspian unbelievably asked her.“Didn’t I told you that I don’t feel safe? How can I sleep safe and sound if someone barge into the house?” she bravely asked him back.“So, when are you planning to move in our house?” He is glaring at her as if he is warning her to be caution to anything she’ll say.“It would be better if you will ask me when are you planning to change the knob,” she spelled out the word knob.“Steph, if your parents know about it, they might think that we are divorced. I am begging you to go back,” he begs.She chuckled when he begs at her, “that’s not the tone of a person begging. I might change my mind if you kneeled down rather than to force yourself to look sincere,” she instructed him to do what she likes.“Stephanie, don’t you try my patience because you will not like what will I do,” her eyes grew as she creeps out hearing his warning.She abruptly moves her head to face him to ask what he can do but she felt hi
