บททั้งหมดของ My Always, My Forever: บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 30

The next day, Rai was busy. He was always on his phone and told me he would not be home till the afternoon to attend to some businesses. He asked me to go with him, but I preferred to stay at home with Leah. He understood. He just smiled and kissed me before going away. I spent my time with Damian and Leah, and I could say that it was one of the best times of my life. Damian and Leah were inseparable. “Damian, we are like a family. You, the dad. Me, the mom, and Leah is our child.” I told him as I laughed. He laughed and stroked Leah, who was sleeping on his lap. “You know what, Damian. It would be nice to have a child with you. I can imagine you running around the front yard with our little boy, laughing as you catch him. You’ll be a great dad.” I said without thinking, smiling and looking at a distance, imagining the scene. Damian just raised his e

The three of us spent the next two months blissfully happy. I was relieved that nothing had changed between the three of us. And I tried hard not to think about what happened between Damian and me. But that was until Rai needed to go back to the US. “Can you not go back, Rai?” I asked him the night before his departure. “I can’t, Princess. I need to take care of some businesses there.” He pulled me close to him. “But I’ll miss you.” I sighed in his embrace. “I know, Princess. I’ll miss you too.” He caressed my cheek. “Damian’s still going to be here, though; you can hang out with him. And with Leah too.” He suggested. “It won’t be the same, Rai, and you know it,” I said softly. “I know, Princess. I’ll come back to you as soon

Another night while I was playing with Leah in my room, I suddenly broke a nail. I had very long fingernails, and as I was reaching for Leah, I bent my pinky, and my nail broke. It was so painful that I cried. I checked it out and saw that it was broken halfway, and the break was deep. I knew I had to pull the rest of my nail to detach it from my finger. With my other shaking fingers, I pulled the rest of the nail off my pinky. I could see that some skin was pulled off too. It hurt even more, and I cried more. It was pretty bloodied. I quickly picked Leah with my other hand and went downstairs to Damian. Damian was in the dining room. He was sitting with paperwork in front of him. He looked up when he realized I was approaching. Taking one look at my crying face, he came to me. “Kat, Baby girl. What happened? Why are you crying?” He asked me quickly as he came to me. I just showed him my pinky. Blood was dripping from

My question was followed by a lengthy silence. “Damian, do you love me?” I repeated my question, thinking that he didn’t hear it. “Of course, I love you, Baby girl.” I could hear him reply this time as his lips landed at the top of my head. “Hmm.. I love you too, Damian. Just as much as I love Rai.. maybe even more,” I said while closing my eyes. His hand stopped stroking my hair. “Kat, Baby girl. Do you know what you are saying? How drunk are you right now?” He asked me. “A bit. But even if I am a lot drunk, my friends told me that people usually tell the truth when they are drunk. So yeah, I love you, Damian. I do.” I smiled slowly and rearranged myself, so I was straddling his lap, my body facing him. I started to nibble his ears, his jaw, caressing every part of his body when he suddenly stopped me. “Baby girl, you are drunk. You will regret this in the morning.” He grabbed my hands to stop me from touching him. “No, Damian. Please love me. Tonight.. Just tonight..” I grou

Around three weeks after our lovemaking, I went to Damian’s place to take my belongings home. I had done this several times as I had a lot of stuff here, but I made sure not to see him at all the times I’d been here. He had texted me a few times asking me to come back, but I didn’t reply. As much as I wanted to feel his arms around my body, I fought back the urge. I didn't know how to face him after what had happened. I opened the front door and stopped on my track. The sight in front of me was unusual. Damian had a few of his friends over, a small gathering of men and women, maybe around fifteen or twenty of them. I saw Damian standing in front of the tv with a woman wrapping her arms around his waist. He whispered something in the woman’s ear, and the woman laughed. The woman then kissed him on his lips. I could feel my body shaking at the sight. I was hurt by the sight as if I had just caught my boyfriend cheating on me. First Rai, and now Damian. It was devastating. I was disapp
