Lahat ng Kabanata ng MOAN For me MONALISA : Kabanata 141 - Kabanata 150

The car rolled to a gentle stop in front of a hotel. The ride had been completely silent. My mind wasn’t even in the car; it was far away, buried deep in thoughts I couldn’t shake. I didn’t even notice when Donald turned off the engine until his voice broke through my fog.“You may come out,” Donald said softly, unbuckling his seat belt.“Huh?” I blinked, snapping back to reality. “Yes… yes.” I fumbled with my seat belt and quickly stepped out of the car.The cool air brushed against my face as I stood at the entrance of the hotel. My eyes lifted to the tall building. . I stared for a moment, confused.“A hotel?” I turned to him, my brows furrowed. “Why are we here?”Donald closed the car door gently and walked toward me. His eyes were calm, but I could see the concern behind them.“You need some rest,” he said in a firm but caring voice. “Going home isn’t a good option right now. You’ve been too tense, too restless. You really need to… just breathe and distress.”For a second, my hea

“Repeat what you said, Tricia!” I growled, my voice trembling, my eyes burning into hers. My whole body was shaking, not from fear, but from the rage boiling inside me. Tricia folded her arms and rolled her eyes like she didn’t care. “I mean, isn’t it obvious? You forgot to hang up and I found out you two were in a hotel. And I wasn’t fast enough to end the call. I heard everything.” She smirked and looked straight at me. “I heard her telling you not to go, to stay with her. And then you replied, ‘It’s going to be a long day for the two of us,’ before you got into the bed. Right?” “What?” Donald’s voice cracked like thunder. He inhaled sharply, then exhaled as though he was trying to control himself. His fists clenched at his side. “Get a hold of your friend, Mona. She’s out of her mind.” “Hello!” Melissa suddenly cut in, stepping closer like she had been waiting for the perfect time to add fire to the chaos. “Miss Tricia, you shouldn’t be mad at them if they wanted to give Joshu

“Good morning ma’am Andrea” Athena said, placing the fruit basket on the cabinet. “How’s sir Jayden this morning”“Ugh! Don’t get me started. He’s been angry since last night”“Why?“He wants Monalisa”“What? So, he has regained his memories?“Apparently, no, he remembers only her and he wants her but.. that’s impossible because of their current relationship”“You’re right. So what do we do?“I don’t know. He has refused to eat and take his drugs. He said he can’t eat from a stranger. I am a stranger to my brother” Andrea sighed and rose from her seat. “we need Monalisa here”“How ma’am ?“Athena, take me to Monalisa’s house”“I’m afraid I have to turn down your request”“Why?“Sir Jayden’s orders and Ma’am Monalisa’s orders too. No one is allowed to know her house”“What?“Yes ma’am”“Fine. Then take me to her office”“What? I can’t”“please! Andrea clasped her hands and fell on her knees. “i beg of you Athena. Please...”“this is so not good. Fine. I’ll take you t

Finally, the doctor looked up and smiled a little.“Do you know, that’s great news,” he said. “Your brother will be discharged today.”Andrea’s face lit up, but only for a second. Her smile faded just as quickly, like a candle losing its flame.“I’m happy that my brother is coming home,” she said quietly. “But… I’m also a little bit sad.”The doctor frowned softly. “Why so, Miss Andrea?”Andrea let out a shaky sigh. “He doesn’t remember anybody aside from Mona,” she said, glancing at me. “And he’s so stubborn that he won’t let anyone else take care of him.”The doctor leaned on his table. “So… what are you driving at, Andrea? You can always hire some home helpers to assist him. It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t remember anybody, right?”Andrea shook her head. “But doctor, you said he needs people he’s familiar with around him to help him recover his memories. You and I both know… Mona is the only one he remembers.”My heart skipped a beat. The room suddenly felt smaller.“So?” I said, m

That night, Tricia stayed in my room for hours, trying everything she could to convince me not to move into Jayden’s house.Her voice kept breaking, her eyes full of worry, but my mind was already made up.I just wanted to get it over with.She sat cross-legged on my bed, watching me fold my clothes into a bag.“Mona, are you seriously going ahead with this?” she asked, her tone mixed with shock and fear.I sighed and zipped one side of the bag. “I can’t believe it either, Tricia, but I have to. I just want to do what Andrea asked and get this over with. One month, and I’m done.”Tricia crossed her arms. “So there’s really nothing I can say to stop you?”“Nothing,” I replied softly. “Just help me pack my bag, please.”She stood up, muttering under her breath as she helped me fold a few clothes. “How many bags are you going with?”“Maybe two,” I said tiredly. “I’m not staying there forever. A month is enough. That’s all I can take.”She smiled faintly, trying to hide the sadness in her
