61- Sweet time

Colleen's POV "Colleen, dear, why are you still here?" Mom asked when he went to our bedroom and found me sitting on a chair by the poolside. The sun was almost down and a cold breeze of wind brought chills to my body when I never wore a sweatshirt over my clothes. "I want to wait for Jared here. Lately, he had been going home a little later than normal and I was worried that he was facing some problems in the company." I replied and I saw him sigh. "Don't overthink about everything. I'm sure that if he has some problems at the company, he will be able to handle them just fine," she replied. "How can you tell?" "I never saw your husband's face being too stressed whenever he comes home. If ever, he may have thought more of you and nothing else," she replied. "Is he having a hard time because of me?" I asked worriedly, "Of course not! You know that it's not the case. Yes, I am not going to sweet talk you. As your mother, it was painful knowing your condition and I know that

62- I will be very happy

Jared's POV I carried Colleen as she was already asleep. I sighed when I noticed that she was so light even though she was 5 months pregnant. I put her down on our bed and, just like the other nights, I stared at her beautiful but tired face. She was having a hard time, I know that for a fact. Who wouldn't? Anyone who was in her shoes would feel that way aside from the hurt and pain she was probably trying to fight. While I was struggling to fight the loneliness that I was feeling because of her inevitable passing, she was fighting her sorrow as well, thinking she was going to leave the family she had started to have. I touched her face and I couldn't help but smile when I saw her smile too. She's like a baby that has been played by her angel in her sleep. Even if there were dark circles around her eyes, it was still sparkling whenever she looked at me. The colors on her face that I thought were starting to get back have started to fade again. I touched her on her arm, which

63- I want to live more

Colleen's POV "How are you?" Dr. Chin asked me again, I don't know if I am going to tell her how I feel about Jared with me. I didn't want him to worry but I was worried about my baby as well. "I want to say that I am fine," I said and they both looked at me, concerned. "Lately, I have been feeling sad. It was the first time that I felt sorry for myself. Will it affect our baby?" I added as Jared held my hand. He looked at me and I could feel that he was feeling sorry for me too. I didn't want to see his emotions anymore so I looked away first to look at my doctor whom I was sure was sorry for me too. "It was natural for you to feel that way," she said. I guess she knew how to comfort her patients. "Anyone in your shoes will feel like that, even Jared. But you have to be strong because your baby is observing your emotions as well. You have to feel happy so the baby will be able to relax." "My wife," Jared called me so I looked at him, "If you wanted to cry, just tell me. I am going

64- Can you make her stay?

Jared's POV Colleen was very happy when we found out that we would be having a baby girl. She prayed for it and just like what she had told me, God did answer her prayer. Why can't she just pray for her recovery instead? I am not really into the baby's gender. As long as they are both safe, everything is fine with me. I mean more than fine and I will be forever grateful. As the days went on, I started to feel scared. Not for myself but for her. I could see that she was having difficulty with her condition. If only I could carry her burden, I would gladly do it. But I think God is unfair, He made someone like Colleen suffer like this. Or He is greedy, that He wanted her for himself to be the kindest person. I didn't want to blame Him for everything that's happening now. I know for a fact that I too, have a fault. I deprived her of the chance to extend her life. But I am not God, but He is. He could do anything he wanted with just a snap of his fingers. He could make my Colleen bette

65- Could have been our first

Colleen's POV I wanted to cry that very moment when he was telling me about what had happened two years ago. He was facing a problem then and I didn't do anything to help him. I got mad at him without knowing that he was in a tight situation as well. I could feel his sincerity when he said he was sorry and what he said before I was out in my sleep. He wanted me to stay longer. He wanted me to be with him and our baby. I tried not to cry, I didn't want him to know that I was still awake and had heard everything. Although it was his confession, I still didn't want him to feel a burden. It must be his way of lessening the weight on his shoulders. It was three days ago, and every time I look at him, I can't help but feel sorry for both of us. But, I didn't want to think that way anymore. Starting that night and the following nights, he had been telling me about him and what he had been doing after we got married. It made me feel that he was filling me up with information about him that

66- I promise to make you feel proud

Jared’s POV “Hi, Colleen!!!” Ingrid greeted my wife with a lot of energy, her voice conveying both excitement and affection. As expected, Colleen welcomed her with the same bright enthusiasm, her smile wide and genuine. “Ingrid,” Colleen replied warmly, leaning forward to accept the kiss Ingrid pressed on her cheek. I had invited her and Mom over today. It was Saturday, and I had promised myself to make every weekend memorable for Colleen, a day reserved for the people she loved the most, filled with laughter, warmth, and family. “Hi, son.” Mom greeted me softly, and as always, I caught that subtle glimmer of sadness lingering in her eyes. It was something I could never quite ignore. Perhaps it was due to everything that had happened between us, or maybe it was the unspoken weight of our family’s circumstances. Either way, I knew I owed her a proper conversation soon. I didn’t want her to carry unnecessary worries about me or Colleen. “Hello, Mom. Thank you for coming,” I said sinc

67- Everlasting love

Colleen’s POVWeekends have never been happy for me. Not until the past few weeks, when I was able to spend them with my family. Every Saturday, Jared made sure that we would all gather in our home, and every time it happened, it felt as though my life was being extended. That’s how it truly feels to me, even when I know how fragile my body has become. And yet, despite my condition, I am happy. Deeply, sincerely happy.“Hi, wifey…” Jared greeted softly as he sat beside me. I’m already six months pregnant, and we had just come from my check-up. Our baby was doing fine, although a little underweight. Dr. Chin said it was perfectly normal given my health condition. There was nothing serious to worry about, as our child was overall healthy. And that, to me, was enough, enough reason to breathe, to smile, and to hold on.I could see the excitement in Jared’s eyes, but alongside it, I could also sense his fear. He knew that by the seventh month, I would have to undergo a cesarean section. No

68- Threat

Jared’s POVI felt completely lost after that moment. My chest was heavy, as though a weight I couldn’t carry pressed against me from the inside. I knew I didn’t want to burden Colleen with any more worries, but the truth was, I couldn’t stop myself from drowning in my own thoughts. I was just thankful she didn’t misinterpret my tears, didn’t see them as weakness, or worse—pity. Still, sometimes, I couldn’t help but ask myself: What kind of man cries over a woman? Not many, right? Yet maybe… maybe only those who love deeply are the ones who truly get broken the most. Love—it could be so tragic.Now, when I think of my wife, I force myself to stay strong, not just for her but also for our baby. But in the back of my mind lurked a question I couldn’t shake away—what happens if Colleen really leaves us? How can I be a good father to our daughter? I once promised myself that our child would always look up to me with pride. But how could I ever fulfill that promise if Colleen were no longer

69- Limited time

Jared’s POV When I got home, the very first thing I did was look for my wife. My chest loosened in relief when my eyes finally found her in the kitchen, standing beside Betty and Mommy Lucy, both of them busy with the evening preparations. “Hi, Wifey,” I greeted softly, pressing a tender kiss on her temple as I wrapped my arms around her tightly—so tightly that it felt as though I had been separated from her for years. Her brows furrowed in instant worry, her voice trembling a little as she asked, “What’s wrong, Hubby? Did something happen?” Even Betty and Mommy Lucy had turned their gazes on me, their faces carrying the same shadow of concern. I forced a smile, trying to ease their fears. “No, nothing’s wrong. Not really. I just… finally felt like I could breathe again.” Colleen tilted her head, her eyes searching mine. “Why? Is everything alright at the office?” I gave her a small nod in answer. “Mr. Davidson finally made a decision. I think he got frustrated with Ingrid—the

70- Plan

Third Person's POV "Are you sure about that?" Stacey asked Derrick. "I thought you said that,--" "Forget what I said!" he exclaimed, and everyone in the visiting room looked at them. "I asked one of my trusted men to look into it and he confirmed it. I am going to make him pay for ruining my career. I am not going to make him live happily with his wife. He did it for his wife, then I am going to make his action worthless." he added, "What are you going to do?" Stacey asked and her eyes widened when she realized something, "Don't tell me, no, stop it, Derrick. The woman was already dying. She wouldn't even last for a year." "That's what makes my revenge sweet, he thinks he still has less than a year to be with his wife," Derrick replied crazily. Stacey was just looking at him in disbelief. She may have been a sl*t and she used Jared, but she can't be a murderer, especially to someone who was already dying. "Look, I was angry at Jared as well. He talked to me with a loudspeaker,
