Mag-log in"I've known you forever, Mathia. I can read your every move, every gesture, every reaction, and every word. You don't need to say it out loud because you're mine, and that's all that matters. Your feelings for me don't change the fact that you belong to me." ~ Draken Luzevia. ---- Mathia and Draken were deeply in love, and fate seemed to have destined them to be inseparable. However, life had other plans, and their relationship bore fruit in the form of a child growing within Mathia's womb. Instead of joy, Mathia felt overwhelming sadness and a heavy heart when Draken abruptly left her. Uncertain about her future, she found strength in her determination to care for their child. As time passed, the inevitable happened - the two were reunited, and Draken laid eyes on his child with his former lover. But what drove Draken to abandon his child and the mother of his child in the first place?
view moreAfter I had cleaned up the dishes, I went straight to our room, mine and Madrid’s. My son was already fall asleep. I sat beside him and lay down, turning to my side so I could gently caress his hair.Then suddenly, I found myself deep in thought. Am I a bad mother for not telling him the truth? I know my son is intelligent, but what I don’t know is how he will react once I tell him everything about the abandonment that did Draken did to us? Why his father and I never ended up together? and all the questions he might throw at me after that.Tears slowly rolled down my cheeks at the thought. I quickly wiped them away, afraid they might fall onto Madrid’s face.All I ever wanted is to give my son a good life. Even with our situation now, I’m willing to give him everything I can.THE NEXT DAY, we woke up early so we could all have breakfast together... Mom, Madrid, Matthew, and I. I was busy frying eggs and hotdogs when I noticed mom's scooping rice into a large bowl.“How’s the grocery,
“Mama!” Madrid came running towards me. His face lighting up the moment he saw me. I knelt down, wrapping my arms around him tightly and kissing the top of his head. “Have you missed me already?” I asked, smiling. “Yes, Mama. Uncle Matthew and Grandma are here,” he said excitedly, pointing toward the kitchen. I turned to look and saw my mother peeking from the kitchen doorway. She was wearing an apron, her hair tied up neatly in a ponytail. The delicious aroma of Sinigang filled the house, warm and comforting. “You’re home already, anak. It’s raining outside. Did you get wet? Go change your clothes and drink plenty of water,” mom said gently. “Yes, mom. What time did you get back?” I asked. “Around four in the afternoon. I picked up your son from school. Matthew just got home from work. He's in his room. You two must’ve arrived almost at the same time,” she explained. “Ahh... I see. Alright, I’ll just change real quick,” I replied before heading upstairs. After washing up and ch
“Thank you for the ride, Charlie Take care,” I said as I peek a little toward the car window, offering him a small smile.“Sure, thanks. Bye,” he replied, waving lightly before driving off. I stood there for a while, watching his car disappear from sight, and sighed deeply. That man... he never really changes.I entered through the employees’ entrance and headed straight to the restroom to check my appearance. I wasn’t the type who used heavy makeup. Just a dab of sunscreen and a touch of lip tint, and I was good to go. I sprayed a bit of perfume, too, of course. I didn’t want my customers to think I smelled unpleasant.Once done, I clocked in and made my way to the women’s shoe section. A few minutes later, we began our usual morning routine; prayer, the national anthem, and then the mall’s mandatory zumba session to wake up everyone’s energy. I didn’t really dance, I just clapped along with a faint smile.As the mall doors finally opened, we stood by our designated areas, ready to g
“My love, finish your food, okay? Don’t waste anything,” I gently reminded my son, Madrid, as he took his seat at the table. Look at him, so eager and ready for school. My boy is now ten years old. He's bright, handsome, and, most importantly, full of love for me.“Yes, mommy. I’ll eat a lot,” he answered, flashing his wide, cheerful smile. I couldn’t help but smile in return every time I looked at him. He was simply too adorable. Clearly, he got that from me.I handed him a glass of milk to boost his strength and immunity. I didn’t want him getting sick, especially when I wasn’t around. It’s not that I neglect him, but if I don’t work, who else will provide for all his needs? It’s just me and, of course, his uncle and grandmother.While we were finishing breakfast, I heard a car pull up outside the house. A few seconds later, there was a knock on the door, and it slowly opened.“Good morning,” Charlie greeted with his usual bright smile.“Uncle Charlie!” Madrid exclaimed joyfully, ru
