Luckily, Aira sent me to the station on time. Right after I sat down on my designated seat, the train began to move away. I couldn't stop my tears that they fell non-stop from my eyes. I felt suffocated that I would not see my child anymore. I was poured with unfortunate events in life and I felt jealous of those people who are happy and living life to the fullest. Am I cursed? I couldn't stop myself to think about the thing."Are you alright?" A woman in front of me asked worriedly. As I couldn't hide my cry, I told her that I'm just sad leaving the city because I will definitely miss my family. But the truth, my heart was bleeding deeply and I couldn't understand my intense emotion. I felt like my stomach churned uncontrollably on the swirling storm of my sentiments. I was like floating in the air because of my chaotic mind and heart.Am I a bad mother for abandoning my child? Will Louie forgive me in the future? What will be Brent and his family think of me? That I'

Elated
I was stunned with parted lips and broadened eyes on the sight of my son. He was carried and fast asleep on the nook of his father.  My eyes swelled instantly and didn't want to move because I'm afraid everything was unreal."Louie can't live without his mom," Brent muttered tenderly and my tears fell uncontrollably. I wasn't able to step my legs closer to them because of my indescribable emotion. "Lora, could you help me get some fresh vegetables outside?" Grandma motioned to Lora who was sitting on the couch. She nodded and stood up hurriedly before she followed Grandma in the garden. But it was obvious that Grandma did it intentionally to give Brent and me a moment to talk with each other.When they were totally out of sight, Brent walked closer to me. My heart was racing fast and my fingers were trembling in exhilaration to touch my son. Brent breathed heavily, "Kelsie, I'm not that evil to take away our son from you," he sounded soft. Carefully,

Hypnotized
I shook my head and right away disconnected his hand from mine. "I don't want to," my breath hitched. He narrowed on my response, "Why?" and asked in dismay."I don't deserve you," I bowed my head, "I'm not worthy of you," and added softly. I felt ashamed that I wronged him in the past. It was enough that he forgave my mistake but for us to be together again is not workable.I didn't want to be connected with him anymore aside from sharing our son. I wanted to refrain from him because I didn't want to suffer in the end. From the very beginning, we aren't born for each other. In short, we're the total opposite in all aspects. I wouldn't find the peace and happiness that belongs to me if I insist on him. I fake a cough to ease my emotion because our conversation had gotten deeper. "Let's not force to be together because things will never be the same between us," I reasoned casually but he wasn't backing down."Kelsie, I'm willing to compromise for you

"Kelsie, I tried hard to forget you but I couldn't," he cupped my face and I shivered on the sensation he was sending me. "I hate myself that I couldn't get you out of my system," he was looking at me with so much affection. "It's always you that I longed for," and leaned his forehead against mine."Baby, I may have the riches but it's useless because I can't be totally happy in my heart," he professed slowly and I couldn't form even a single word in response to him. "You and Louie are the people who could only fill the void in me," he added and to say I was stunned is an understatement. "Don't you love me anymore?" he breathed out and my tears fell non-stop. I was tired of pretending in front of him that I don't love him anymore and my heart couldn't lie. "I can't take another day, months, or years that we're not settled," he sounded desperate. He wiped my tears with his thumb, "Baby, please," and crashed his lips against mine.At first, I resisted him bu

Compromise
My eyes broadened on the engagement ring that he once gave to me. I was astonished that he kept it with him for the past three years.He inhaled a deep breath, "My world went upside down when Hunter returned this to me," he was looking at the ring lovingly. "I kept this because I hoped that one day we'll see each other again," he spoke affectionately. "No one deserves to own this but you," he emphasized his words and I felt like my heart would explode in happiness.He lifted his gaze to meet mine and my tears brimmed instantly. "Let's get married, baby," he muttered carefully while looking at me with so much love and desire. I gasped and covered my mouth in the palm of my hand in surprise. He did not ask me and I must say, it was an order."Are.. are you sure?" I was startled at how fast he wanted to make things between us. He pursed his lips into a thin line, "Never been sure," and slipped the band on my ring finger. I was dumbfounded with parted lips at the si

"Really?" he narrowed in disbelief but was able to smile showing his perfect set of teeth. "Thank you, baby," he elevated my hand and kissed it gently. He told me that we could stay in his penthouse in the meantime as he will look for a proper house for the three of us to live in.I opposed him for a second but he insisted that it's important for us to have a house so that I could comfortably breathe fresh air from the outside. He doesn't want me to say in four corners of a plot because he's aware that I'm a bit mentally unstable. At the same time, he wanted Louie to have a spacious playground where he could conveniently play outdoor with his toys.Eventually, he was able to convince me with his justifications. Also, it would be better for me to have a place that I could go out of the house without any worries. I could spend my time planting any plants that would fit in the kind of house or surrounding that he will be choosing. "Do you still want to work?"

Progress
We were at one of the guestrooms which Brent customized as Louie's room. "You've got him a lot of toys," I murmured at the sight of different kinds of plaything. I told him not to shower our son with so many toys because he's growing fast and his preferences change quickly. Not to mention that some of the toys have not been opened yet from their boxes. A total waste of money."Baby, would you like to visit mom and dad in San Francisco?" Brent sounded careful. My heart pulsated on the thought of how am I going to face his parents after what happened. I felt ashamed for everything and for evading them in the past. Maybe it already instilled in their minds how mess I am and disrespectful. It would be awkward to mingle with them after all.When he noticed that I wasn't able to utter a word, "No pressure. If you're not comfortable then it's fine," he spoke softly and kissed my temple gently. I felt guilty that I'm making his life harder in between my infirmities. I faked a

Tranquility
When the car halted in front of the main door, two women were standing patiently outside. They were all smiles when the driver opened our door and Brent stepped out with Louie in his arms. "Good day, Mr. Davis," they spoke calmly in unison. Brent nodded at them and they helped the driver with our stuff. But before it, they smiled and greeted me as well. I could tell that they already met Lora the first time Brent brought Louie to San Francisco that was why they are comfortable with each other. I haven't seen them when I visited the mansion three years ago and I bet they're new employees. As soon as we stepped inside the house, "Where are they?" Brent asked and one of the helpers informed him that they're in the Lanai area. Brent pulled us through an alley and up to the back area where the ambiance could lift your spirit. Their huge swimming pool is the same three years ago but well maintained and clean. When  I lifted my gaze towards the r

Encounter
I could say that I have a great time spending my time with Brent's family again. I never thought that I could be as worry-free after all the misfortune I suffered in the past. As we were walking towards the Land Cruiser in front of Davis's mansion, "Darling, I'll be having a birthday celebration in LA in the next two weeks," Natalia told me in good spirits. "It would be a happy birthday for me if you could come and celebrate with us," the excitement in her tone was evident.I knew that she's saying it carefully because she doesn't want me to feel hesitant. She's aware that I was aloof ever since before. As I didn't want to disappoint her, "I will," I replied calmly. After all, I needed to make up with them and to show my support for her celebration is a sign of gratification.Our flight back to LA was smooth and safe. We reached our place before midnight with a knocked down Louie on his father's nook. I set foot in relief as the torn that's buried inside m

Confrontation
"Miss Olivia," she tried to intervene but the bitch warned her to stay away. "You slut, get back to your post!" she pointed to the station furiously but my anger rose at how she treated the poor assistant. "And why you allow that brat to make the office a playing ground?" she motioned at my son and I gritted my teeth in infuriation."You have no right to insult her!" I interrupted with a quivering voice. As I didn't want to distract Louie whose a few meters away from us and oblivious about what was happening around, I tried to lower my voice."Of course, you will defend her. Birds with the same feather flocks together," she taunted and that got me infuriated to the peak. "Let's be clear here, Olivia!" I was firm with my words. "Why are you so angry with my comeback? What are you to Brent?" I asked her straightforwardly. She was nonplussed on my retaliation and couldn't even justify her relationship with Brent."Are you his wife?" I retorted and wait
