Chapter 8Why do I suddenly feel the same as a child? Because I make Mommy cry?"Selena, Hija let's go inside. We can talk about this more inside. I promise your Mom and I will fix this." Daddy said more but I just shook my head."Why, Dad, don't you want them to know who you and Mommy really are?" I can already hear the whispering of people behind me."Let's talk inside so you can easily finish the problem I brought? What's the difference between what you tell me inside and what you tell me now, right? I'm already my hint as to how this will end, eh! I'm grounded ? What this time, can I walk around until I'm only inside the mansion? Or can I only go to the four corners of my room? And then the helpers will bring me food.""Son, it's not like that..." Daddy answered."Dad, Mom... I understand the part that why you are addicted to work is for Kenzo and I's future. I received that part a long time ago, the only thing I don't understand now is why I am not happy? Yes, I am thankful You a
Chapter 9Kenzo immediately came close to me and then he also knelt in front of me to check on me. He violently combed his hair with one of his hands, when he saw how I would cover the wound with my other hand when it was my knee."I told you to be careful. You really won't listen." He said to me annoyed and then he held that hand if he was holding it, I don't even want it if I look at his face and he looks at me badly. I just got angry and let him see my knee."Look at the size of your wound." Kenzo told me strongly and he still doesn't think anything bad about me. In fact, my wound was really big, like the size of my palm. Sigh. I couldn't say anything because I couldn't think of anything other than the pain in my knee and how I could get out of where we were sitting. So I tried to stand up..."Hey... what are you doing?" Kenzo quickly told me and then he held me by both of my waists, it's a good thing he was supporting me because I might have been sitting where I was standing witho
Chapter 11I would have accepted it if you did it in the first months when this issue was still hot, but no! You really waited for my anger towards you to take root before you made such a move. T angina!" I snapped at him."Selena please..." And then he held my palm and gently squeezed my palm and continued what he was saying."Mom and Dad observe that we are distant from each other, like we are still strangers despite the fact that we are siblings. Mom is sometimes asking if we're in a secret fight. She keeps on questioning me, that there is something happened to us here at the hacienda that they didn't know. Reason why we have this cold relationship. She doesn't believe that it's just about you having a misunderstanding with Marga back then.""Well, you shouldn't have told them that you made me pass the time and make fun of me the first time you came here to the hacienda!" I told him using my furious voice while at the same time looking straight into his eyes.I can already feel my
Chapter 12I gasped as my tears fell one after another, I felt the exact pain I felt the day I found out that Mom and Dad were gone, the only difference was now, Kenzo was here with me. And somehow I feel relieved that I can no longer feel that I am alone."I'm sorry for not being there for you when you needed me the most. I was supposed to be there to accompany you but I wasn't.I even turned my back on you and tried to forget what we are, what we have back then. I know it's too late for me to apologize to you. The damage has been done. I can't take back the time we lost and those times you are hurting, those times you are in so much pain because of me and that tragedy happened.I'm sorry, I thought the decision I had was correct... I thought that over time you will forget about me, what happened to us. The memories we have together especially since you know that I have continued my marriage with Marga. I will not ask you to understand my marriage with Marga. The more I have no reaso
BeginningSelena Cortez"I'm excited for Señorito's arrival!" Clara told me. I smiled at her and continued preparing the ingredients needed for Aling Sanya's dishes."It's been a long time since I last saw him," she added. Well, how about me? I haven't even seen him yet. I wanted to respond to her, but I didn't want to ruin her imagination about Señorito, so I just let it be."You know, he's not just incredibly handsome! He's also very kind!" she said, blushing, while chopping onions. I couldn't help but worry that she might accidentally cut herself."Lena! Clara! Where are the ingredients I asked you to chop? You two are still gossiping, that's why the work is taking so long!" Aling Sanya grumbled. Sigh."Here they are!" I replied, placing the onions I had chopped on a plate to bring to her."I'll start with this, and I'll come back for the rest later," I told her, and she nodded in response."Aling Sanya, here you go." I set down two plates filled with chopped onions and peeled garl
Chapter 1I often see their portraits in the mansion, Senyor and Senyorita. Whenever they have bonuses, they get it from our housekeeper, and sometimes when I don't have school, Mom and Dad would take me along to get the bonus.As for their only child, I haven't seen him yet. I've only heard about him from the stories of other workers here. They often talk about how handsome and kind he is, especially to Clara.I never really took an interest because I know we're just their workers, and it's unlikely for me to be noticed. What I know about him is that he's seven years older than me.I heard he works in the large Saavedra company, aside from their dairy business. They also have a construction company.Clara's cousin even got a job as an office clerk in the Saavedra construction company. It's true that they're kind because they can provide more than just work here on the hacienda. They can help with education until one finishes and then hire them in their company, just like Clara's cous
Chapter 2I looked around, but Marco still wasn't there! Shit! I quickly descended to catch my bra if the water had carried it away. Luckily, Marco hadn't arrived yet! I would have fainted if he saw me half-naked! Since I'm used to swimming, I was able to retrieve my bra."Damn it! That scared me!" I muttered to myself while holding my bra up. My breasts were fully exposed, but fortunately, I was the only person there."Wow, nice breasts. Round and big!" It felt like my soul left my body when I heard a unfamiliar voice coming from somewhere."Wow, nice breasts. Round and big!" Until now, I couldn't get his words out of my mind, and I still felt the intense heat on my face and ears from embarrassment!Who is that guy? I just saw him now, and it seems like he's not from here! He's too fair-skinned, as if he hasn't been under the sun! He even looks like he has foreign blood because of his height. He's taller than Marco and definitely not a local."W-who are you?!" My anxiety reached the
Chapter 3"G-g-good morning, ma'am." Even though I was still confused about what was happening, I tried to gather my thoughts to greet them properly and avoid being perceived as rude.But it's really hard to get over the fact that the guy who saw my boobs at the waterfall was the Señorito! And then, suddenly, the whole surroundings became dark.And there it was, I nodded because while I was alone in the house earlier, I had a moment to think. The gathering at the Saavedra's was for the arrival of the Señorito, and the guy at the waterfall earlier looked like a stranger! What if he was one of the Señorito's guests?What if they told the Señorito about what happened at the waterfall? It wouldn't just be embarrassing for me, but also for Mom and Dad. And what if the news spreads and becomes gossip? I didn't want to be the talk of the workers on the hacienda!"You're such a killjoy!" Clara immediately confronted me as soon as she saw me sitting in Julia's stable, watching the mother and d
