Shirley povMy chest is hurting and the fact that I could not do anything to stop them hurts me the most. I can't believe that Felix is trying so hard to get back at me for something I never did to him. He was the one that broke our engagement and ended up getting married to my best friend and all of the sudden he is starting to act like a victim. When Felix left the gallery I picked my bag and my phone angrily and left the gallery with a conclusion in my heart that I will never return to the gallery again. While I was driving back home a lot kept running through my mind. Why was he suddenly acting obsessed with me when he ruined the beautiful memories we had together.I increased the car speed as I was trying to remove the moments that just happened in the office from my memory. I hated it that he was acting the victim. So much was going on in my head that I stopped the car angrily on the highway. I hit the steering several times and was angry. “Argghh!” I yelled angrily. I felt
Writer's povWhen Jackson got to the room he laid on the bed tiredly trying his best not to believe the video that was sent to him but even if he doesn't want to believe, everyone that watches the video would call his wife all sorts of names.Jackson thought of possibilities where Shirley will be innocent but it really doesn't matter at this point because of the mass of people that already saw the video he was starting to receive phone calls from business partners and colleagues that knew about his marriage with Shirley.Though he decided not to pick their calls because he had nothing to tell them and there is no way he would tell the media that what's being watched is true until he confirms himself. Just then a call from his personal assistant came in and he picked the call immediately. “Boss did you…?” His personal assistant did not bother asking further because Jackson already hummed to his question.“Just make sure that by morning the video doesn't exist anymore.”“Do you think s
Shirley povI felt hurt, I felt like my innocence was taken away from me. Seeing my video on the internet, my phone buzzing from several calls was giving me a panic attack. I just wanted to disappear from everyone and never return. I sat on the bed and placed my hand on my head tiredly. The whole thing was just too much for me and the reality that I have no one to talk to was beginning to hit really hard.My phone was busy with so many calls, but the one call I needed the most didn't come. I kept checking each time my phone rang but the call never came. I had to give up and turn off my phone so I could try going to bed.When I lay on the bed I looked at the ceiling with so much in my mind and I kept asking why I have to bear so much heartache. There's never been a time in my life when I was genuinely happy without having to worry about the joy being cut short.This was the same way I felt a few months back when my engagement was cancelled and everyone turned their backs on me as usual.
Writer's povMarissa was waiting to hear what Daniel would say, she needed to know the time that Shirley called, then she would know if Daniel was saying the truth or not.“Early noon.” “Thank you.” Marissa said to him and ended the call. After the phone call Marissa headed downstairs, she was going downstairs so that she could have a conversation with Lisa and both of them can look at the situation together and see how to help Shirley out of this whole mess.While she was on her way to the sitting room she sighted Jackson and she stopped on her tracks because she didn't know how to face him, she thought he might be too upset to listen to anything, which is why she wanted to tell him what she knew about Shirley so that he could have faith in her and know that she is not that kind of person. Marissa thought that Shirley was too nice to be going through such problems. After hesitating for a while Marissa finally took the bold step of heading downstairs to go meet Jackson. He looks real
Writer's povAmelia was having fun saying all the trolling going on on social media she was happy to see that for once she saw Shirley being miserable on social media. This is something she never saw coming. She kept going to the comment smiling. While she was on the act Yvonne sat on the couch and was wondering why Amelia was laughing like that. She thought there was something fishy about it, because she knows Amelia and she knows that there is nothing that would make Amelia smile like this, if it's not something that's destroying Shirley.For a few days Amelia has been miserable. Mostly in her room and hardly to be seen around the house and barely talking to anybody but all of a sudden she looks enthusiastic about just using her phone. Yvonne knew that it would be better for her to contact people she knows very well to give her heads up on what is going on. She just did not have a good feeling about Amelia's sudden happiness. After staying in the sitting room for a while she fel
Writer’s povJackson was shocked to hear that Felix could do such a thing just to get back with Shirley whom he left coldly without caring about how she would feel. He turned to look at Felix because he thought Felix was not making sense.“Are you even listening to yourself Felix, you are lusting over my wife!” Jackson yelled angrily. Felix smirked when he heard what Jackson said. “She was mine first before you took…”“You broke your engagement with her and married her sister Felix! What is wrong with you? You’re losing it!” Felix placed his hand on his pocket and scoffed with his hair brushing his hair backwards with his hand. “You think you have the right to tell me anything right now? Have you forgotten how miserable you turned her? How you pushed her to her death, and you’re going to do the same to Shirley because that’s the kind of man you are!” Jackson couldn’t take it anymore, so he punched Felix heavily on the face. “Looks like I just told you the truth.” Felix said and spat
Shirley povI walked back to the sitting room where he was, though I didn’t go too close to him because we were still not talking yet, we’ve been avoiding each other for days, I just couldn’t get over the fact that he had lots of horrible things to say about me, but seeing him in such vulnerable state made me feel soft towards him, I thought I might be going too hard on him for no reason. Maybe I should just let go of the past and have that conversation with him. After staring at him for a while I walked away, without helping him get changed. ******The next morning, I woke up feeling really tired, my body was hurting so I stretched my hands and yawned tiredly. My vision wasn’t clear enough so I rubbed my eyes gently and finally I was able to see clearly. I got up from the bed and walked into the toilet. As usual I turned on the tap and washed my face, when I was done doing that, I stepped out of the toilet. “Oh my goodness.” I was shocked to see Jackson in my room, "How in god's na
Writer's povYvonne was still finding it hard to reach both boys. Felix hasn't returned home after that day and Jackson was not picking her calls no matter how many times she called. She was wondering if she used her hands to destroy everything completely because it wasn't this bad at the start. She started to realize that maybe she shouldn't have told Jackson the truth that day, and maybe she should have stopped Felix for always wanting the things that Jackson loved the most when they were younger. Jackson was always the one to make the sacrifices because he was paying for his sins all those years which is something he was not aware of.Yvonne sat in the sitting room with a lot on her mind, she had so much to think about, so much that she thought she was going crazy while thinking about it. She sat in the sitting room while sipping her coffee. While she was doing that she heard the doorbell ring, she sat up properly but did not move an inch from the where she was sitting, she thought
Writer's pov“So you actually think that everyday of my life I live a happy and perfect life? Do you know how tough it was trying to please them every single time and my effort was thrown away? Do you even know how sad it is watching the people that you call your biological parents treat a stranger better than the way they treat you? Well then I wasn't smart enough to understand that you were their biological daughter but what I know is that they always treated you better than me. I had to do everything to please them but they never were pleased with whatever I did to make them proud. They always commended even your little efforts but they never commend my hard work because they believe that I wasn't their biological daughter. So what happiness are you talking about? What I always wanted was what you got easily but I didn't try to forcefully take anything away from you, I knew that in the end I can't have it all.” Tears was welling down her eyes as she was talking because she had to
Writer's povJackson was too busy working that he wasn't able to see her message, he wasn't even with his phone because he had something serious to attend to. The same issue that made him moody the other day when he got home, he decided to take care of it this time around at work so that he doesn't allow Shirley suffer from the stress he's going through at work.While he was doing that he couldn't get Shirley off his head, he was wondering why she is always so happy even though she might be going through the most.“Boss, you are…” One of Jackson's staff was shocked to see Jackson smiling for the first time since he started working in the company. Jackson noticed and immediately changed his facial expression. Jackson hates it so much whenever they see him smiling because he thinks that is a weakness but after leaving with Shirley for a while now he got to realize that smiling isn't any sign of weakness, it is even more sign of strength when you're going through the most and you find y
Writer's povBefore Shirley made the phone call she was hoping that they are going to listen to her and accept what she says because this is the only alternative she has to help the little way she can, she knows the kind of person sharon is and how pestering sharon can be but she was hoping that this time they try to reason from her own perspective too and see reasons why she cannot give her blood.Amelia was totally against the idea because it's only going to ruin her plan and she was scared that her parents might accept the idea from Shirley.“Okay.” Amelia opened her eyes wider than normal the moment she realized that her mother had already accepted the idea that Shirley brought.Just when she was close to achieving her biggest dream which is killing Shirley it had to end this way, Amelia was so upset that she wanted to get up from the bed and leave but it will only ruin her chances even more, all she has to do right now is think of a way to end this blood topic and find another th
Writer's povAmelia was very happy to hear what her mom and dad said. She has been waiting for the moment when both of them will decide to take it by force. Obviously she is not willing to give her blood no matter how much they try to beg.“Mom, dad, I really do not think that is a good idea because you know very well that she is only trying to act stubborn, with time she will finally be able to submit to us and give us whatever it is that we want.” Amelia said to her mom and dad trying to pretend to be a good person, Sharon was not buying what Amelia was saying because she felt time was not on their side and anything can happen. With the way the nurses were looking it seemed like everything had gotten even worse, and she guessed they couldn't see the truth which is why they kept saying it will be better if the doctor speaks to them by himself. “Amelia, as much as I am trying to make peace between myself and Shirley, I am still going to do whatever it takes to make sure that my daugh
Writer's povAmelia realises that it’s already getting late and soon they would find out that she is lying. She was hoping that blood transfer would be done before the truth comes out, but right now she is making everything hard because both parents already agreed so she's wondering why Shirley hasn't agreed to give her the blood that She wants. Amelia was pacing around the room looking very worried because things weren't going well at all. She was hoping that her father's visit to Shirley's house would make things easier for them. Amelia snapped out of her thoughts and realized that her position is risky and it will be easy for them to find out that she is healthy if they find her pacing around the room. “I'm not going to let her ruin what I worked hard to plan, I'm not going to let her destroy my work. “Amelia said to herself as she sat on the bed thinking about the next plan.She realized it's better to pester her parents even more, because it’s only when she disturbed them ver
Shirley povI was shocked to see Jackson back home earlier than planned. When he returned he didn't look exactly happy which was a little worrying to me, I hate seeing Jackson like this, I was wondering why he looked really upset but then again it might be business that is bothering him.“Hey, are you okay?” I asked him the moment he walked into the house. I could tell from the look on his face that there was something wrong but I didn't want to pressure him too much, “I'm good.” Jackson said to me without hesitating, I could tell from the way he was behaving when he first got back but he wouldn't tell me what is bothering him.I didn't bother disturbing him anymore. I just took the little boy upstairs so that both of us can give Jackson some time alone to think. I couldn't stop worrying about him but I just had to give him some moments to clear his head and I am sure he's going to feel better in some minutes. It's not like he’s going to be moody the whole day.*******After spending
Writer's povShirley couldn't stop having a lot of flashbacks about everything that has happened in the past, this room is the room that contains everything from my past so it was totally hard for her to run away from it.She remembered when they were five which is the first day that they met, both of them were complete introverts, they hardly get along with strangers which is why they were able to connect very well when they were young and they promised each other that whenever they need help they would always be there for each other. Even though so much has happened and that strong friendship that they used to have has suddenly turned into hatred for each other Shirley still couldn't overlook the promise she made to Amelia.Both of them knew that Amelia was always the sick one so Shirley promise that even if it has to be her life she will do everything to make sure that nothing happens to Amelia, this is a promise she made to her when they were young so she felt maybe right now is
Writer's povThey both headed to the other side of the house where Amelia was sure that no one would be able to eavesdrop on their conversation.“I'm really grateful to you and Grandma for making out time to be here even if it's already late. I never imagined that you would come here the moment you hear that I was in such situation, I didn't know you will take it seriously which is why I did not tell you that both of us have been having series of misunderstanding so I just thought she might even think I'm doing you a favor by having such illness.”“Well you are.” Felix said in his mind and let out a smile so that it would look like he was smiling because of what she was saying. Felix hated it so much that he had to be in the same space with her, Felix couldn't believe he had to pretend like he was cool with the whole nonsense that she's saying, she kept beating around the bush which was very frustrating to him, he was wondering why she cannot complete a simple sentence so that they ca
Writer's povAmelia was not really happy to see Felix in the house at the wrong time, she did not tell him anything about the sickness as she realized he didn't have to know about it because it's not like it was real, telling so many people about it might only risk her opportunity of hiding the truth.“What are you doing here?” Amelia asked him angrily because he's not supposed to know about it.“I am here because I received a call from someone else telling me that my wife has a deadly illness and that she has only a few days to live and I have to be here to take care of her. Why didn't you tell me anything?” He asked her angrily.“Why should I tell you anything? You have never believed anything I say to you so why do I expect you to trust me this time around? I had to keep the truth to myself and find a solution to it immediately because I do not want to die now.” She was so upset while she was talking. Amelia hated it so much that she couldn't have control of the opportunity to hold
