PHOEBE

The hotel was breathtaking, with marble floors, chandeliers sparkling like stars, a scent of roses, and money hanging in the air. My heels clicked softly as I followed the receptionist, who wore a perfectly polite smile. My coat was still wrapped tightly around me, hiding the dress Winnie helped me pick out. My heart fluttered with a mix of excitement and nerves.

“He’ll be with you shortly,” the receptionist said sweetly, opening a suite door for me. “Please, get comfortable. There are refreshments inside. Make yourself at home.”

I gave a shy nod. “Thank you.”

The door shut behind me.

The suite was luxurious, with soft couches, a large table with drinks and fruit, and dim romantic lighting. I let out a small breath. “Wow…”

I walked slowly to the table, brushing my fingers along the glass rim of a wine glass. Red wine. A chill ran up my spine, and I shook it off. Maybe he asked them to pour it before he arrived. Maybe this was his way of setting the mood.

I pulled out my phone.

    PHOEBE“I just don’t understand what went wrong,” I said for probably the hundredth time that week.Mom rubbed my back gently while Grandma held my hand. I was curled up on the couch in my pajamas, blanket wrapped tightly around me, even though it was warm inside. My eyes were tired from crying, but somehow the tears still kept coming. It didn’t matter how long I stared at the ceiling at night or how much I tried to stay distracted during the day, Ramon was always there in the back of my mind. Every little memory felt like a fresh scratch across my heart.“I wish I had the right words, baby,” Mom said softly, her voice calm and patient, the way it always was when I was hurting. “But I need you to hear this… falling in love isn’t something to be ashamed of. It’s not bad. It means you’re human. It means your heart works.”I sniffled and wiped my nose with the sleeve of my hoodie. “Then why does it hurt so much?”Grandma squeezed my hand tightly. Her palm was warm, her grip soft but stea

    SHAWNAI stood at the door, watching Phoebe storm out.“Phoebe, wait…” I called after her.She didn’t even look back. Her shoulders were stiff, her steps fast and angry. The door shut behind her with a heavy thud, and I felt like the air was knocked out of my lungs.I stayed there a moment longer, listening to the silence.God, this girl was breaking my heart.With a sigh, I turned and headed down the hallway. Damien was in his study, reading something on his laptop, a pen tapping against his palm.“Damien,” I said softly.He looked up immediately, concerned about flooding his face. “What happened?”I shut the door behind me and leaned against it. My legs felt weak.“It’s Phoebe,” I said, rubbing my temple. “She told me everything.”He sat up straighter. “What do you mean, everything?”I walked to the chair across from him and sank. “About Ramon. About what she’s been going through since meeting him. The pain. The confusion. The lies. Damien… She was manipulated. Lied to. And she’s be

    PHOEBEMom was quiet for a moment, then whispered, “Phoebe, I’m your mother. You can tell me anything. Please. Don’t shut me out.”Her voice broke something in me. My lips trembled as I tried to keep it all in, but I couldn’t anymore.“I… I just…” I gasped and turned to her, tears falling again. “I don’t even know where to start.”She pulled me into her arms, hugging me tightly. “Start anywhere. Just talk to me.”I wiped my face and sat back. “When I first met Ramon, everything felt so… easy.”She listened quietly, nodding.“But then… things started happening. Weird things. His uncle hated me from the start. He said I was a distraction, that I was bad for Ramon. He tried to keep us apart.”Mom’s face hardened a little. “That same Richard?”“And then… ​I was kidnapped, and it was because of him.”“What?” she asked, looking so surprised.“Were you hurt? Why didn’t you tell me or your dad about this?” she asked again looking so worried.“I’m fine, Mom. I didn’t tell you because ​I know t

    RAMONI pushed open the front door of my uncle’s mansion and walked in, tired but relieved. The trip to the other company had gone well, and everything was finally in order. I could finally relax a bit. Maybe even take a proper nap.I found Uncle Richard in the living room, sipping his usual evening tea, with that calm, unreadable look on his face.“It’s done,” I said, dropping my bag by the side. “Handled everything at the company. Staff has been restructured, finances are back on track. They’ll send you the reports by Monday.”He nodded slightly, like he was expecting nothing less. “That’s good.”I waited for a moment, expecting him to say more. Maybe a word of appreciation. But he just went back to staring at the fireplace like I wasn’t even in the room anymore.I sighed. “Alright, I’ll head out.”I turned to leave, dragging my feet slightly. My body was tired from the long trip and the endless meetings, but my mind was even more drained. I just wanted to lie down, maybe take a hot

    PHOEBEI stepped out of Richard’s mansion with tears burning in my eyes and my heart broken in pieces. The cold evening air hit my face, but it couldn’t cool the fire of pain rising in my chest. My legs felt heavy, like I was dragging my whole body through mud.Winnie walked me out.“Phoebe?” she said softly. “Oh my God… I’m sorry about what happened?”I didn’t answer. I just walked straight into her arms and let out a shaky breath. She held me tightly, gently rubbing my back.“I don’t even know why I came,” I whispered against her shoulder. “He doesn’t want to see me, Win. He said it himself. He wants nothing to do with me.”Winnie’s arms tightened around me. “No. No, that can’t be true. He… he was probably just upset. Hurt. People say things when they’re hurting.”I shook my head. “No. He meant it. You heard him over the phone too. He doesn’t care. That we’re done. That I should leave.”Winnie slowly pulled back, her hands still on my shoulders. She looked into my eyes like she was

    PHOEBERichard didn’t react at first. He just stared at me like he was trying to read my thoughts.“I’m sorry for coming unannounced. I just… I really need your help.”I heard my own voice tremble. My eyes darted briefly to the floor before finding Richard’s again. I hated that I sounded so desperate, but I was. Completely and utterly desperate.Richard frowned, his brows pulling together. “What’s going on? Is something wrong?”I nodded slowly, my fingers wringing each other nervously in front of me. “It’s Ramon. I’ve been trying to find him all day. His apartment’s locked up. It looks like no one’s there. Curtains drawn. Door locked. Lights off. I knocked, I waited… nothing.”Richard’s expression changed subtly. Concern started creeping in.“I tried calling him. Several times. But his number’s not going through. It’s not even ringing.” I paused, struggling to keep my voice steady. “And I’ve spoken to some people who used to see him often…security at his place, a few mutual friends. N

    PHOEBELater that day, I was still sitting at my desk, staring at the resignation letter in my hands like it might change if I looked at it long enough. It didn’t. The words stayed the same.I stood up and walked over to Clara’s desk. She looked up from her computer and gave me a soft smile before bowing to greet me.“Clara,” I said, holding up the letter. “Do you know where Ramon is? I need to speak with him.”She frowned and shook her head. “Oh… he left early this morning. Said he had something urgent to take care of. He didn’t say where he was going.”I felt my chest tighten. “Did he seem okay?”Clara paused, thinking. “I don’t know. He was quiet. Didn’t really talk to anyone. Just packed up his stuff and left.”“Packed up?”She nodded. “Yeah. Said he wouldn’t be coming back for a while.”That made my heart drop. What the hell was going on?I left the office immediately. I didn’t even bother to grab my bag. I just walked out, got into a cab, and told the driver to take me to Ramon’

    PHOEBEI sat on my bed staring at nothing. My eyes were sore from crying, but no more tears came. I felt empty. Numb.A soft knock pulled me out of my thoughts. I blinked and looked up."Come in," I said quietly.To my surprise, it wasn’t Winnie. It was my grandmother."Grandma?" I said, standing up.She walked in slowly, her eyes scanning my face like she could read every thought running wild in my head. She didn’t say anything at first. She just came straight to me and pulled me into a hug. No words, no questions, just warmth. And in that moment, I cracked."Oh, my sweet girl," she whispered into my hair. "What’s wrong?"I hugged her tighter, and the tears came again, harder this time. I couldn’t stop them even if I tried. The sobs came from somewhere deep, somewhere I didn’t know still ached this much."I feel like I don’t know him," I sobbed, my voice shaking. "I feel like everything I believed was a lie."She didn’t say anything right away. Just rubbed my back gently, like she us

    RAMONThe moment I saw her, my heart stopped.There she was, Phoebe. Standing by the garden path with the sun behind her, making her hair glow like it always used to when we’d sit on the porch together. I couldn’t move at first. I just stared.“Phoebe,” I said, finally stepping forward.She looked up, and our eyes met, but the look on her face hit me like a punch in the gut. No warmth. No relief. Just surprise… and something that felt like pain and disappointment rolled into one.She turned away instantly, like she couldn’t get away fast enough.“Wait…Phoebe, wait!” I rushed forward.She didn’t stop. She picked up her pace, but I caught up to her. I reached out and lightly grabbed her arm. “Please. Don’t go. Just let me talk.”“Let go of me, Ramon,” she said, her voice low and cold.I did. I stepped back, hands raised. “Okay. I’m sorry. I just… I wasn’t expecting to see you. I didn’t think you’d come out here.”“Well, I didn’t think I’d run into you,” she snapped. “Yet here we are.”“
