PLEASE LOVE ME TWELVE
The night came faster than Isaac could imagine and expanded to days. He had watched Gemma every night. Sarah and the rest seemed to come over every morning and bring what they could, food especially. They would also get flowers and some clothes for her.Now, it's been two weeks since Gemma lay unconscious, and once again, he stayed the night watching her. He sat watching the big bright moon shining in the dark sky, its light illuminating the dark room. Isaac was bored and clueless about what he was doing taking care of a rude girl that he didn't even know, not for days but weeks, and every time Isaac walked in, he pitied her even more. Slowly he turned around, exhausted and ready to sleep but instead found Gemma staring at him."Hi," Gemma said. Her voice was hoarse. He darted at the window and her. And he then smiled, speechless. "You can as well say something," she groaned slightly."You're awake?" he raised his brows in surprise."Can I get a glass of water?" she asked politely.Is

"What did he say to you?" Isaac asked, ignoring her.A FEW HOURS AGO.Gemma stepped into the hotel, and everyone looked beautiful in shining and expensive dresses and handsome men in suits, but she walked in a white crop top and faded Jeans trousers feeling so out of place. She took a deep breath and walked further into the hotel, and as she passed, she felt scared and intimidated. Every single person looked good except the one approaching her."Gemma?" She paused as the familiar voice called, Gemma battled to continue, and as she took a step, the voice rang again, "Gemma!" She inhaled sharply and turned in the direction of the voice."It's you!" He said with a laugh, approaching her.When he was feet away, She returned the smile awkwardly, glancing briefly around."You have no shame to be here-" He started. Gemma immediately gawked at him, but her expressions were meaningless. "Just look at what you're wearing," he eyed her disdainfully, "Did you come here to crash his wedding? If yo
PLEASE LOVE ME FOURTEEN
"Why?" Her eyes were filled with tears. Gemma didn't think he would proceed with the marriage. She was already late. She looked at his hand and spotted a good ring. Gemma quickly looked away, sucking the tears and ensuring she wouldn't cause a scene. "I'm sorry..." he said, lowering his eyes. He could barely stare at her. "You promised..." Gemma's eyes found Alice where she sat, staring at them. She cleared her throat, looking away, trying her best not to look suspicious. She had no idea why she had to pretend anyway. They were already married. Some ladies walked over to her, pulling her from her chair. Her stomach was visible to Gemma. Juan's eyes followed hers, finding Alice walking away. "Gemma, let me explain," he said, grabbing her hands. "I can't believe you" Gemma pushed his hands away from hers, stepping backwards "Please just let me explain, okay?" "What? You finally decided you want kids?" "What's wrong with you?" "Isn't she pregnant, Juan?" "Gosh, Gemma, please
PLEASE LOVE ME FIFTEEN
The door locked, and Gemma hurried into her bedroom, finding everything related to Juan. She took a big box out and angrily cleared them. Her favourite things from him and the worst gifts she got from him. "This is so ridiculous," she pulled back, sitting on the floor watching her room torn apart. She covered her face in anger, tightened her grip on her hair, crying in silence. Every time she recalled what had just happened, her wailing became so loud that she couldn't control it. Pinching herself severally, hoping for all this to be a dream, she hoped this was a dream. Every memory of Juan came to her like a flood. Gemma couldn't believe they weren't together and had separated, her biggest fear was before her, and she couldn't do anything. Gemma stood up, pulling the box and his belongings. She paused close to her closet. She opened the door and found more of his clothes than hers. Gemma sighed. "I must have been stupid! He doesn't even pay my rent!" she rushed, pulling away h

"Hey, it's okay," Isaac rushed over to her, pulling her closer to his arms, "it's gonna be okay," He assured her, holding her tight. Whatever she was going through, he wanted to make sure he was there for her, even though it was the last thing he could do. Minutes later, Gemma lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling as the mood was awkward again. "Are you okay?" Isaac asked. Gemma murmured, nodding her head. "I am, thanks," She said. "Can I ask a question?" Isaac said. "Yeah," "Do you like... have siblings?" "No, I am the only child. Why are you going to call my mom," she giggles, making him laugh. "I have a brother," he said, and silence engulfed the room again. "Why are you telling me?" "I can introduce you to him. He's the doctor" Gemma stood up, turning to him on the floor. "Really?" "Yeah, I also..." "Does he work in the hospital here?" she asked, her eyes shot with desperation and curiosity. "Yes, he was the one who attended to you," Isaac said so

As time passed, Gemma was discharged and finally returned to her apartment. She opened the door, and things were still how she had left them. She had so much to do, cleaning, throwing things away, she had a lot. She picked a picture of her and Juan from the ground, staring at it, but instead, she thought of him, Isaac. She had rejected his proposal, and ever since then, she had only seen him once, when he came to say goodbye to her. "Date me," He said, "I promise to treat you better and love you," He continued. Time stopped for a moment in Gemma's world. She wished, as it stopped, she could plant a kiss on his lips, but she wanted to make a run for it. "No," Gemma said, just like she thought she was running from him, running from anything relationship. "Oh," Isaac murmured, licking his lips. "I can't date you," she replied. Isaac looked away. He did expect that Gemma was still in love with Juan. Isaac raised his brows at her, smiling awkwardly. For a moment, he wondered what
PLEASE LOVE ME EIGHTEEN
The next day, Gemma's eyes opened, and her room was bright and shining. The ray of the sun interrupted her sleep, and she huffed, rolling and stretching, exhausted from being awake. She glanced at the time, and it was past nine in the morning. She smiled and got out of bed."Gemma!" her mouth yelled. Gemma rolled her eyes, entering the bathroom. She picked up her toothbrush and toothpaste, ready to brush her teeth. She hummed along to the rhythm of playing along in her head."Gemma!" Her mother called again. She sighed and yelled back."I am coming!" She said the house went silent for a minute, and she continued humming. As soon as she was done, she opened her door, walking downstairs to know why her mother had screamed her name."Mom?" She looked around, and Gemma found breakfast set on the table for her."Oh, Gemma... I am going out," Her mother stepped out of her room in a blue floral dress. She looked so beautiful and angel-like. Her hair rested on her shoulders."Oh, wow... you

The event started, and the lights went off. They began by introducing the new company on a wide screen and stopped. "Hmm," a figure sat opposite them. The lights came back, and Gemma's eyes met Isaac sitting right before her. "I present you, Mr Isaac Dale," the voice echoed. Gemma looked at the man calling out for him. She looked back at him. "Hey, Gems." He smiled, and Gemma stared at him, stunned. Isaac still looked good as always, like a male model pulled out of a movie, tall, sexy and handsome. A small smile curved her mouth. She couldn't look at him. Isaac smirked and got up, heading to the stage. Her eyes followed him, and she clutched her dress. Why he messaged her? she wondered, Anita, holding her hands. "Are you okay?" Anita asked. Gemma looked at her, "Yes, I am," she smiled, taking a glass of water. "Wow, I didn't even think Isaac would be the new owner," Anita said. Looking at him, he looked so good in the tuxedo he had on. "Hmm," Gemma rolled her eyes
