034 | Oozing Confidence
Diane’s P.O.V.
“We’re going out. I just came from a whole day of work, and I haven’t eaten yet my dinner,” he said with a magnificent smile. His deep dimple showed again, starting to melt me when I couldn’t even glance away. His tone sounded a little bit commanding, but it wasn’t throttling.
Jeez, I’m so excited to be with him!
Although Liam just declared it without even asking me if I would be willing to go and have some dinner with him, I still couldn’t contain this exhilarating feeling. My feet abruptly felt like barely touching the ground, and I guessed that it would not even take long for me to surely faint here.
“Oh, sure thing! I’ll just need a minute to change my clothes. Anyway, take care of these for now. I’ll be right back, promise!” I responded hastily while handing him the red roses.

It was the kind of hold that he never wanted to let my hand away from his clutch. I kept on smiling while silently talking to my heart.Be still, my heart. I knew how much you had fallen for Liam, but please calm down!In just a few steps, we already reached the reserved table for the two of us. Actually, I found it redundant. The whole restaurant was already reserved, then how come the table ended up being reserved too?Eventually, I just let it slipped away from my thoughts.

Sins of The Past 036 | Dream Catcher
Diane’s P.O.V.That made me blush and choke my food. Liam was respondent enough to give me some water before standing and approaching me. He then gently rubbed his palm on my back to stop me from coughing. It took me a while before I cleared my throat. It was my last spoon of blueberry cheesecake, and it was a good thing that I didn’t barf my food.“Are you alright now?” he worriedly asked me.I just nodded before my eyes gazed at him intently, almost raking his whole body.Why would he tell me such a thing?My heart was beating so fast again.“I’m sorry if I made you feel uneasy, Diane. I might have expressed my feelings over a pick-up line, but I just want you to know that I wasn’t kidding. I like you, and that’s the truth,” Liam said casually.“Hmm, o-kay. I&md
Sins of The Past 037 | Intensifying Pleasure
Diane’s P.O.V.Liam kissed my lips softly until it deepened passionately. My mind was fluctuating, but it didn’t prevent me from thinking that it wasn’t just a simple kiss. I was stunned for a moment, but soon after, I closed my eyes while feeling the strange heat in my body that turned me to be feverish. I didn’t know what to do anymore, and I couldn’t control myself from responding to him when our kisses became rigidly torrid.Restraining myself did not even affect me from clasping my arms around his neck while warmly reciprocating all of his kisses. No matter how my mind urged me to stop, my body had its own response. I didn’t know how to kiss fervently, as I didn’t have any experience, but Liam seemed to be teaching me automatically. He was a great kisser, making my reflexes just went with the flow.Keeping up with Liam’s every move, I gasped and
Sins of The Past 038 | Caught In The Trap
Diane’s P.O.V.Be my girlfriend.Be my girlfriend.Be my girlfriend.Liam was already done asking me about it, but those words still kept on running through my mind. I guessed I was still in a state of shock.Actually, he didn’t ask me if I could be his girlfriend. He only asked me if I felt something for him, I nodded, and that was it. He wasn’t even sure what I felt over that something.Confused, I knew that a sullen and brooding expression crossed my entire face. I wasn’t even expecting us to get into this so soon. I could not contain my happiness, but I guessed that it was all too quick. I didn’t have any experience of having a boyfriend, and of course, nurturing a relationship. Suddenly having doubts, I hardly bit my lower lip.What should be my reaction? I
Sins of The Past 039 | First Rejection
Liam’s P.O.V.Being unsuccessful in getting Diane’s sweetest ‘yes’ for tonight, I must admit that she was my first rejection. But it was fine—I still liked her.In fact, I loved everything about her: her simplicity, her beauty, her talent, everything. Even with her head down, she still drove me crazy. There was nothing like her. No one could surpass her uniqueness, and her rejection would not make me stop pursuing her.I should have taken her to an Italian or French fine-dining restaurant because I was craving for *Coq au vin, but I followed my instinct that she would prefer Filipino delicacies. Her simplicity made her even more classy. Besides, I could always order for delivery.Diane’s choice was what mattered to me now, and seeing her ogling her eyes over a sisig made me want to order for more. I would probably ask her to dine-in at other restau
Sins of The Past 040 | Leandro's Rage
Liam’s P.O.V.I was able to catch half of his body and decided to lay him down on the sofa first. If I hadn’t done that, his body might have just been injured by the shattered glasses waiting on the floor.That was when I noticed that his right knuckles were wounded as if he cracked them against a firm and rocky object. I went to the guest’s restroom, brought the first aid kit, and returned in front of him.No matter how I tried to ignore his recklessness, I had to treat his wounds immediately so it would not get infected. It didn’t take long for me to treat them. I removed the dirt and some torn skins before disinfecting them. Since his knuckles were no longer bleeding, I used direct pressure to control swelling. After that, I wrapped his hand with a sterile gauze bandage.There was no question that Leandro was too sloshed, but I wanted to call it a night. I
Sins of The Past 041 | Dead Serious
Liam’s P.O.V.I ended up pushing him back on the couch before leaving in front of him and climbed the stairs again. No matter how I tried to explain to him, Leandro’s mind was already closed, so he would never understand it.“Let’s stop this nonsense issue, Leandro! Feel free to rummage through that first aid kit and treat your lip wound. But first, let me ask you these. How many times do I have to prioritize you over the other things? How many times do I have to let go of something just because you asked for it? Damn, stop acting like a kid!” I yelled while glancing at him.He stabbed me with his deadly stares. “Why? Does it mean that you still love Isabelle, huh? That after all these years, you can’t still forget her? Then, leave Diane alone!”I was stunned for a moment, making me remember what happened years ago in Boston…

Diane’s P.O.V.And now, it’s Monday again. The worst day of the week!My class would still be at one o’clock in the afternoon, but I woke up earlier than usual to finalize our documentary thesis. I was assigned to edit and double-check the computations, as well as to proofread its technical writing.Although I considered myself an average student, I must admit that I was quite good when it came to Mathematics and English. That might be the reason why I landed as second honorable mention way back in my high school years.Karen and Lorenz would surely kill me later, so I needed to finish everything today. Wearing skin-toned sleeveless and short black beach shorts, I was leaning on my bed where my chest and tummy were facing the not-so-fleecy mattress.My fingers were busy typing on the laptop as if those were in a rush. My knees were bent
