ROSWELL MONTEFALCO POV'sI watched the young Allera while eating. I was facing her so I could freely look at her small and beautiful face.We look strangely alike. Especially her eyes, nose, lips and eyebrows. I have a strange feeling seeing the young Allera crying on one side earlier. I felt my heart jump when I saw her.I really wanted to hug her, as if I longed for her. Fortunately, I was able to control myself. I don't like children. I was even surprised when I liked Alle.I'm sure Maxine was the last girl I had a One Night Stand with. Apart from Fhreaya who I had sex with before."Where is your mom, Alle?" I asked.She stopped chewing the food in her mouth and looked at me intently. It was as if my heart was caressed when our eyes met."She's working" was this innocent answer.I'm sure. That she is my daughter with Maxine.Maxine takes pictures of the child's complexion, smile and the shape of the face."We need to inform the security that there is a missing child, maybe her pare
"Mommy where's my dad?"I gasped when Alle suddenly asked me about her daddy.This is the first time she asked me about his daddy. I suddenly thought of what Joyce told me last night.I brewed milk. To avoid my daughter's question that even I can't answer."Alle. Sleep okay? Mommy is going to do the laundry. Drink your milk first, sweetie" I took out the child's bottle with only flavored milk.I sat next to her and stroked her hair."Mommy?"she turned to me."Yes, sweetie?""I want to see my daddy,"I was stunned. I don't know whether to answer 'yes' or 'no'.This is the day I'm really dreading.I don't even have a clue where Alle's daddy is?Alle is the only connection to each other."Goodnight, sweetie" I avoided answering her question.I kissed her on the forehead and marched out of the room."Goodnight, Mommy" she chased. I looked at it and smiled.I immediately dial the Joel's number when I got out of Alle's room. It immediately answered."Friend, it's late, why aren't you sleepi
The sweat on his forehead. Even in the whole body. I just went through the whole thing.I'm alert to its every move, it looks like a super model of mineral water.I looked at his neck as he swallowed the water he was drinking.What the heck am I doing?Oh my gosh, Maxine! You are here for work not to stare at your boss and lust. I want to bang my head in stupidity."Come closer to me. I'm gonna teach you" he turned to me."Sorry Sir. But I came here to work, not to play basketball with you" I insisted.I looked at myself. Is it right to play basketball with me in heels and a pencil skirt?He would have turned away from her when he spoke again."Come on. Maxine. You play with me first then after that I will tell you what job you will do" he saidI gasped for air then I faced him again. I looked at the ball rolling at my feet.I picked it up and started to bounce it, almost losing my balance when it ran towards me and grabbed the ball."Hey, Sir, why did you take that from me!" I yelled
The sky was overcast when we arrived at Sir Well's rest house, here in Baguio.I can't fault the interior of the house, it looks like a mansion from the outside, but the furnishings inside the house are antiques, which are obviously expensive.I couldn't even refuse him, when he said that his business meeting was here in Baguio. Until now, its cheeks are still red.I don't even have one, at least one thing to replace the one I'm wearing now."Your room will be upstairs around--" I was startled when the caretaker of the house behind me spoke.I smiled and nodded to the old lady."Thank you very much"I immediately text Joyce and Joel's number. I told them that I can't go home and I don't know why.I threw myself on the soft bed, I yawned from being so sleepy and tired. Because of the length of the trip.I was distracted by feeling the cold wind blowing through the open window. I stood up and locked it, the wind and rain outside were strong.I stood up and went to the bathroom to take a
MAXINE POVI woke up early the next day.The wind and rain are still strong outside, it looks like the typhoon has not left yet.I took my phone and denied Joel's number."The number you have dialed----" I pressed hang up and dialed Joyce's phone number but it was also out of coverage.I let out a violent breath before heading to the kitchen.I opened the fridge to see what could be cooked.I studied Culinary when Alle was one year old so I could learn to cook.I prepared all the ingredients of the porridge I was going to cook and boiled the pork. It's perfect in this rainy season, I'm hungry to sip hot soup.I shook my head remembering what Sir Well told me last night.Maybe that's my fault too. First he saw me naked, second I was wearing pajamas and a shirt last night. For me he is not attractive, he's a man, maybe it's different from him.After I cooked the porridge, I immediately ate.I made coffee and went to the veranda. I sat on the single sofa and quietly observed the surround
I bit my lower lip to stop sobbing when I woke up naked.I'm not stupid enough not to know what happened to me.Until now I can feel the dizziness because of what I drank last night. This is the first time I drank alcohol in my entire life.I can't see the face of the man next to me in the backseat of the car.Like me, it also has no body covering.I winced as I felt the intense pain and agony between my thighs. I quickly grabbed my clothes.I pulled out my hair when I couldn't catch it.I'm weak. I want to lose myself and cry but I can't. I'm more afraid of waking up the man I had sex with.My tears started to fall. I don't know what I should do?I quickly put on the white longsleeve that belonged to the man. I also took his boxer that was hanging on the steering wheel of the car and quickly put it on.I didn't even look at the man who was asleep.I immediately got out of the car and walked away as if nothing had happened.I want to hurt myself because of what happened. I don't rem
I was dumbfounded and shivering from the cold when the bathroom door opened. I didn't realize how long I had been soaking in the water."Maxine!" I heard Joyce shout and ran to hug me."Maxine? Are you alright?" I heard her ask. I just sobbed.She took the robe and put it on my naked body. Then she hugged me tightly."Let's go. Get some rest" she lifted me with all her might and let me walk out of the bathroom."What do you think you're doing? You've been in the bathroom for five hours so I called Joyce. Are you planning to kill yourself?"I didn't pay attention to Joel's preaching to me. I continued to his room and laid myself on the bed.It's not that easy to deal with.I felt heavy when I woke up the next morning. I am very cold and burning with fever.I winced when I moved. The pain in my between are still there. I was even more discouraged. I wanted to convince myself that it was all just a dream."Maxine? Maxine" Joyce called me."You know you're not alone, right? You know wha
In the past few days I have become more and more anxious. Especially since Mom and Dad are already teasing me to go home to Laguna.I gathered the courage to go home but I really couldn't."Maxine? You look pale"Joyce worriedly said when she entered my unit."It's nothing, Joyce. I haven't been able to sleep well these past few days, that's why I'm like this," I said while sniffing my senses."Did you have your period?"she asked. I looked at her and shook my head."Come on, let's go check-up" she invited me.I realized that I might be pregnant. My chest pounded. And cold sweat made me. I rubbed my face and took a breath one after another,before agreeing to my friend's suggestion.The doctor took a blood sample in addition to the pregnancy test she gave me.I lost my breath when I got positive on the pregnancy test.I tested again and expected the result to be negative but two red colors were drawn on the Pregnancy test kit.I leaned against the cold wall while holding the two pregnan
