Shadows of My Dark Past (Book 2)

Diane’s P.O.V. “I love you and I would never let go of you no matter what. You are my world and I would always fight for your love. I could afford to lose everything if that could mean winning you. If ever there comes a time in our lives that you didn’t want me anymore, I would never stop chasing you even if it means chasing you to the other side of the world.”  Pakiramdam ko ay ako na ang pinakamasuwerteng babae sa buong mundo. I couldn’t stop myself from crying, most especially after hearing those words from him while he was kneeling in front of me.  He took the box out of his pocket and opened it. Then, I was able to see the sparkling ring. He had loosened his tie as he was sweating profusely. “If it happens that you already had a change of mind… still, I would ne

Diane’s P.O.V. “Mrs. Rivera, based on how Diane initially responded to me, it was confirmed. She has *post-traumatic stress disorder now because of what happened to her and that’s the number one reason why she needs to undergo psychological counseling,” Dra. Ava compassionately explained.  “PTSD can cause vivid flashbacks and it may feel like the trauma is still happening at the recent time, so I’m hoping for your patience in case Diane will be troubled by her nightmares. She also needs to continue her medical and health treatments until her full recovery. She may feel upset most of the time, and I don’t know when she will recover. It could be soon, but it depends to Diane how she could help herself.” Tiningnan ako ni Dra. Manuel at saka maingat na hinimas ang aking ulo pababa sa dulo ng buhok ko na hanggang

Diane’s P.O.V. Nang gabing maaksidente raw kami ay natagpuan sa kotse ng Liam na ‘yon ang signature pen ni Leandro, ngunit napatunayan namang wala itong sala dahil nasa Davao raw ito nang mga panahong iyon. His alibi was confirmed when police and detectives even flew to Davao to investigate and asked the people he got associated with. Was he that kind of a monster who could really kill his own sibling? Hindi ko na alam kung ano pang sumunod na nangyari sa kaso, or better yet, wala naman talaga akong pakialam. Kung hindi ako nakakulong lang sa loob ng bahay, Karen had been my spokesperson all the time. Gusto ko nang tuluyang makalimutan ang lahat, most especially, if that would only concern Liam. At least, hindi natuloy ang kasal namin na maaari ko pang pagsisihan sa huli, so I guessed, blessing in disguise na rin ang nangyari. Kung hindi kami naaksidente, patuloy lang akong lolokohin ng Liam

Diane’s P.O.V. Luke or Lucas Regor was Kuya Greco’s only son. Kababata ko siya. Iyon nga lang, wala akong ibang naaalala maliban na lang sa kung paano niya ako bully-hin noon dahil hindi raw ako maganda. The last time I saw Luke was before his flight to Europe to study Commerce together with her elder sister, and that was five years ago. Kuya Greco was separated from Luke’s mom, Ate Linda, who already resided in Belgium. Hindi na ako magtataka kung nakuha niya ang bago kong number kay Kuya Greco. What could be his reason to suddenly call me after all these years? Is he not yet over with all his bullying tactics? Did he also tried to reach me during the recent four years that I had forgotten? Just hearing about his name made me want to puke already, even though I hadn’t yet started eating. “Hello?” walang ganang sagot ko sa telepon

Diane’s P.O.V. “Excuse me, Doc Vangie. You need to sign some papers,” bungad ng isang nurse sa may pinto na nakapukaw sa atensiyon ng doktora. Mabuti na lang. Kung hindi ay baka sa harap niya pa ako nag-breakdown. “Excuse me for a while. If ever you need of anything, I’m just at my office located at the second floor and left-wing corner of this building. Okay?” paalam ng doktora sa amin. Hindi pa rin ako umiimik at patuloy lang na nanginginig. “Thanks, Doc. Anyway, I’m sorry for talking to you that way. I’m just confused on what’s happening to my best friend,” narinig kong sabi ni Karen. “It’s okay, miss. I understand. Ms. Rivera was really lucky to have a best friend like you. Actually, I like your over-protective attitude. Excuse me for now.” Hindi ko na halos namalayan pa ang pag-alis no’ng d
