Lahat ng Kabanata ng My Brother's Wife: Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

LOREN'S POINT OF VIEW  Without saying a word, I stood there staring at him, processing his words. It's easier said than done, my entire life is here, it's quite tempting to leave this toxic marriage but what happens I when leave? My mind clouded with different thoughts in just seconds of those words being uttered. "You don't have to say anything, just think about it." He placed left his hand on my shoulder. That's a relief. But it didn't take the pressure off completely, I still can't stop myself from overthinking. He swam away while I floated on the water, acknowledging the awkwardness of tension that snaked its way into the atmosphere. Should I say something? Maybe not, I might just say something stupid but this is undeniably weird. Everywhere so quiet except for the sound of the busy pool.

ACE'S POINT OF VIEW "What now, you had your men..." I was rudely interrupted. "I had my men do what's necessary." I rolled my eyes at my brother. "So what I lied, big whoop." He's asking because he knows nothing, so I'm not bothered. He is suspicious and obviously bothered with my presence in his house. "You are not answering my question, little brother." He chewed on his bacon. "You are delirious, if I had plans against you, you'd be in jail by now." I pushed my food aside. "Still not an answer to my question?" He dropped his fork. "I'm done with this conversation." I pushed the chair back as I stood up. "Sit. Your. Ass down." He yelled, hitting hard on the table. "Nice, I can see you are really getting a better brother, not angry at all." Sarcasm lacing in my voice, as I wat

ACE'S POINT OF VIEW. "I hate this." I stared at myself all suited up in the mirror.    I look Orange. Maybe because my suit is orange, why on earth will he get me an orange suit? "You look great." Edwin appears in his suit, I glared at him through the mirror. He gets to wear black while I go around looking like a fruit. "I look like an idiot." "You are just being grumpy." I walked away from the mirror, picking up my wristwatch and putting them on. I'm not. "What's wrong?" Edwin asks. "Nothing, it's nothing." Maybe its because I can't get Loren out of my mind or I don't want to go this fucking event. Both. "You on the other hand seem ecstatic." 

LOREN'S POINT OF VIEW  I walked into the boutique, giving a tight smile to the cashier and at the corner of my eyes I spotted Leah, I looked away immediately, pretending to shop.  I took out some clothes not paying attention, I walked over to where Leah is at pretending not to see her. "Loren?" I turned to feign surprise. "Leah," I called out, pulling her to a hug, which is super awkward. Leah could be the key to knowing what job my dear husband is actually involved in. She was able to slip once, I can get do it again.  "What are you doing here?" She asked. "I shop here all the time." I lied. "Really? I own this place." I gasped, trying to look surprised. 

  LOREN'S POINT OF VIEW.      All I could do was take rapid breaths in and out, feeling like if I don't breathe for a second the weight on my chest will rise up to my throat, tighten it and choke me up until I give out.   I sat frozen on the bathroom floor, staring at down at the black tiled floor, fearing that moving an inch would mean facing reality, a reality that I'm damn sure I don't face, I can't face.   Many thoughts have run through my head, thoughts I'm not proud off and it's eating me up alive.   How can I be this stupid, this can't be happening to me, I don't miss my pills, I mean I don't think I did.   Gosh, I'm so stupid.   I don't want to be pregnant, I can't be, my life's a mess and its all my fault.   I pretty sure the water in my eyes has run dry, totally b
