"I will temporarily stay in the island. Maybe at the Casa Resort."I glanced at him while I was eating. I saw that he was done and was just looking at me. Every time I took a bite, it was as if he was watching over me, so I suddenly vomited.I sat down and immediately reached for a glass of water and drank it. But, I almost spit out my drink when he suddenly stood up and walked towards me. I almost held my breath when he gently patted my back while I continued coughing and rubbing my neck.When I looked up at him, our eyes met. I was about to avoid it when he suddenly grabbed my chin and made me face him. I gasped because of what he did and my heart was racing again."Tsk!"The side of his lips lifted and took a tissue from the table while wiping the side of my lips. His lips twitched because of what he did. He also took the glass in my hand and placed it on the table."Tsk, you're still a baby, huh?" He laughed and continued. "I also have some business to attend so we will see each o

"I'm going to work, Aunt Merna," I kissed my daughter's cheek in farewell."Alright, hija! Be careful!" He waved.I smiled at them before leaving the house. Good thing a tricycle passed right away so I didn't have to wait any longer."Let's go," I said to Manong driver when I sat down.What happened yesterday came back to my mind. He hugged me and kept saying sorry. As if he had a deeper reason. I'm also thinking about what to do. I don't want him to call me all the time because we are gossiping and my work might be affected.When I arrived at the resort, I paid the fare and then got off the tricycle. I looked at the tourists I met and bowed slightly. I went through the back to make it easier to get to the locker room where my uniform was. When I arrived, I immediately opened my locker to get the uniform and started to get dressed. I just stopped fixing my hair when I saw Jamaica walk in and go to her locker."So..." He raised an eyebrow at me while glancing over me."How is life as a

I will choose myself again. I do not care anymore. It was like the truth slapped me again. I was slapped that Steven and I really can't. Very painful. I do not know why. What is my fault that why I am still being punished? I don't care what Steven does on this island. It's his conscience and not mine. He is a very bad person.He thinks of nothing but himself. Why did I love him? And they had children? But he told me that they don't do that thing with his wife.Is he lying to me? I can not take it anymore. I am going to back out. Seeing his wife is a nightmare for me. I was really scared and felt even more guilty when I saw him again. I don't want anymore. I will stop this stupidity of mine. I think the truth needs to be presented to me before I realize it."Hija, why all of a sudden?" Aunt Merna asked me sadly. "Did something happen? Are you in trouble?"I shook my head and began to cry. "Aunt, thank you so much for taking care of my son. But I have to leave. I realized that this plac

"Why are you late?" Minda asked me after I bought the ingredients.After that incident, I purposely delayed shopping because I didn't want to see Steven and I together especially with my son."Uh.. there were too many customers in line, I was last so it took me a while," I excused myself and looked away."Okay..." And he handed Zellor to me with a pointing finger."There, your son knows how to shop! He might be a spoiled man by chance." He laughed softly as he picked up the plastic bags."Do you want toys?" I asked and approached where he pointed.When I looked at the price, I became depressed and sadly turned to my son."Yes! Yes!" He applauded.How is it? He points out that the price is one thousand pesos. He just looks cheap but expensive."Son, next time," I said sadly and adjusted the load on him. "Costly.""Tsk, go ahead and buy it, Tori. I'll pay! That's all I got for her." Minda smiled at me as she took the toy and gave it to Zellor. "Play with toys first, maybe it will play w

The bouncers helped me carry Steven to the front seat of his car. I'm good and know how to drive a car because otherwise I don't know how I'm going to get this guy home."Thank you very much," I said to the bouncers who helped me.He peeked out the window and smiled at me. "Nothing, Ma'am. Please drive carefully!"I nodded and closed the car door and then glanced at Steven who was fast asleep. Steven's aura is very different when he sleeps. He looks like a child scolded by an overbearing boss. But when you're awake, you're like a lion ready to pounce at any time.I gasped when I saw the wetness of his cheek. My heart ached and I suddenly felt guilty. Did he cry? I'm not used to this. I'm not used to him being like this just because of someone like me.I took a deep breath and then adjusted his seat belt."Qotorie," he said to my name while sleeping. "Hmm.."I bit my lip and carefully adjusted my seat. I started his car and then drove home. I was nervous and secretly praying that he wo
