It was a big mistake of mine. For the nth time, I fell for him again. I shouldn't say that. I should not tell that I love him. I gave him again too much hope.
"He kissed you?!" Cristel exclaimed.
"And I kissed back." I was frustrated right now. What if someone saw us?
"That was really dangerous, Aliyah. Sonia has many ears and hands on the town," she said.
"I know, I should have pushed him more. And I shouldn't kiss back!" I am a very problematic person. I push yet I pull.
"Let just pray that no one saw you. We are done if Sonia hears about what you did." Cristel was very calm but I know she's also worried about what will happen.
"What if something happened to your parents because of what I did? I know you will get mad at me, but can you forgive me?" I asked her in case something bad happen.
"I don't know, Aliyah. My family is my everything, if something happened to them, I don't what will I do," she answered.
She will not forg
I am completely lost on this day. I waited for days to finally released the bodies of the two Dela Fuente. I used the money I found in their bedroom to give them a decent burial. I did my best to make everything settled for these two beautiful people.After the burial, the upper officials decided to hold all the Dela Fuente's property since their daughter, Criselda Dela Fuente, is nowhere to be found. Although I claimed that I am one of their trusted persons, they don't give me any permission to handle their properties.Upper officials also decided to give the full authority of the town to Sonia's father. They got what they wanted for a long time. They are happy now, but they killed people to be in that position. When I saw Sonia on the day of the declaration of his father's leadership, she was smiling but her eyes were scared. I know because she was the one who killed Cristel's parents. I can't accuse them of anything, I don't have any evidence. If Cristel shows up, t
I worked so hard for the past month. I need to because I need to feed myself. Although Edward is helping a lot, I want to don't abuse his kindness. I helped him manage the farm and the mansion. His daughter became very dependent on me, I liked that. She is always my stress-reliever. Behind the happiness and contentment, I am feeling right now, I still want to know what happened to Cristel and Alfredo. To Henry too.Did he come back already? Is he okay? Is he looking for me? Did he and Sonia already marry each other? I don't think so. If they did, I am in my time right now.Does he remember me? I missed him so much. Every night, I looked at the night sky to remember our first date on 'our' place. It's been a month, everything changed quickly. I don't what is happening now in the town I left."Aliyah, can you clean the bathroom?"I heard Edward called me, he is in the main bathroom of the mansion. I went there, he is on the door and looking at the dirty bat
"Why do you want me to quit my job?" I asked Henry when opened about it."You are not safe here. What did we find out about my parents?" he whispered."That they are part of a terrorist group," I answered."Exactly, and they are here to invest in the illegal business of the owner of this farm. All they know is that I am interested in their legal business that's why I want to come with them. They didn't know that I am here also to investigate them more. I didn't expect to see you here, I'm glad that I chose to come with them." He kissed my cheek.I smiled at him. "Thank you for finding me, but I can't just quit that fast. I didn't know that Edward is engaged in illegal activities, he has a daughter.""You are calling him in his first name," he said then narrowed his eyes at me."Why? He doesn't want me to call any names but his name only." I looked at her serious face."You are taking care of her daughter? Where is his wife?" he asked
"Aliyah, why are you wearing my shirt?"I just finished taking a bath before I go to sleep then I realized, I have nothing to wear. Then, I saw a bag with Henry's things in it."I don't have any clothes to wear. Sorry, I didn't ask for your permission. If you don't want, I can just take it off," I said.He shook his head then cleared his throat. "It's alright, I forgot to buy you a dress. Let's go to your bed."We walked first then I followed him. His shirt is big to me, so it looks like a mini dress on me, showing my legs. I forgot that it is not normal for a lady like me to show too much skin to a man. It's okay as long it was Henry.The house was small and looked very old. And I think this is on the isolated area of the town, far away from the central.He opened the door, a little bedroom with a sofa showed up."This is where you are sleeping," he said.I sat on the bed, showing more skin on my legs. I saw him looking away f
I bit my lower lip before answering him. I don't know what to say."Don't you want me to be your boyfriend?" he asked again.He was asking me that question since this morning before we go to the market to buy myself clothes. Now, we are on the market, Cristel and Alfredo are on the other side while I and Henry are in the clothes section."You are not courting me yet..." I shyly smile."I courted you, remember? But you just keep on resisting me. Come on, Aliyah." His tone was frustrated."Why are you forcing me? That's not right, Mr. Dizon." I chuckled. I picked one dress then faced the mirror."I am not forcing you. Why are you not answering my questions?" he asked, and I saw him pout on his reflection in the mirror. He is so cute."You don't have to tie me up, Henry. My eyes are just for you," I said."Just your eyes?" He smirked."And heart too. Don't you want that?" I gave him the dress I chose."But I want ass
I am very worried about my situation right now. The bruise that I have is getting bigger and painful. I don't know what's happening, it's like every time I engaged myself with Henry, it is only getting worst."Let's go to the doctor," Cristel worriedly said when I showed her the bruise."No, I think it will not stop growing unless I come back to my time." I am very frustrated right now.The only way that I think that will make me go back to my time is to make Henry loves Sonia. But that is very impossible in our situation right now."You can only convince Henry to love Sonia or to even marry is to tell him the truth. If he knows the truth, he will choose to save you and let you go rather than keep you and your life is in danger. He will understand," she said then tapped my shoulder."I don't know how to tell him this. He will not believe; he will think that I am pushing him away again. And even if he believes, I'm sure he will get hurt." A tear fel
I spent my night thinking about how I can tell Henry the truth. There's a lot of problems he is facing right now. His parents are part of a terrorist group and he is a rightful citizen of the country. His responsibility is to protect the country from rebels and terrorists to maintain peace and order. In short, he needs to protect the country from his parents."How can you stop them?" I asked him.He sighed. "I have no other choice but to tell the military and the police. I won't let them do anything bad that can ruin people. I love them but they are criminals, they are bad and wrong, it is not right for me to tolerate that."I was amazed at how he handled things very well, his mind is on the right track always, I really admired him for that. He is very different, and I think I will never find a man like him again."You are a very beautiful person," out of nowhere I just said."Not handsome?" He raised his brow.I laughed. "Silly, what I mean
The whole day I was just laying bed, Cristel is the one who's taking care of me. After I said the truth to Henry, I never see him again."Where is he?" I asked Cristel after she prepared my food."He's with Alfredo, he is going to be fine," she answered.I hope so, I know that it is hard for him to accept it. But if he wants me to stay then I will stay. I don't want to go either.I finished my food then Cristel helped to clean my body. I can barely move; I can't even lift my body. My breathing is not normal. I looked like a dead person when I saw myself in the mirror. How long can take this?"You should rest, grandma. You are pregnant, it is bad for you to get tired," I said while she's tucking me to the bed."I'm okay, you are not. Give me this time that I can still take care of you, when I am old, I can barely lift a baby for sure." She smiled."Thank you for everything, Cristel. If you don't approach me that time when I am still lo
