Lahat ng Kabanata ng Chasing My Ex-wife Back : Kabanata 101 - Kabanata 110

RUBYI couldn't help but to feel nervous about this. The day of family gathering came, and I had to fulfill my promise to Mom to attend it.A warmth suddenly enveloped my hand, spreading heat throughout the nerves systems. Wyatt did it as if sending support with his touch. "You don't have to do this. We can attend it next month." He tried to soothe me with his words.But, it was too late. A promise is a promise, and there was no way I could escape this forever.Thus, I rested my right hand on top of his and gave him a thin smile--I couldn't smile widely because of the nervousness. "I will do this. And I need you to be my back in case I cannot answer all of their questions." I was begging with my sentences. It's his family and they will be more lenient to him than me.He squeezed my hand softly. "You know I will always be your back."Yeah. We will become each other's supporter."Have we arrived, Uncle?" Austin's question drew our focus back to the present. We nearly arrived at Aunt Tay

WYATTAustin's first week of the school proceeded smoothly. There seemed to be no problem adjusting himself around his new friends, and he was even thrilled to tell about his day once we picked him up everyday. And the comments from the teachers were in line with that.Austin was enjoying his day at his school, and that was more than enough to bring us relieve. It eased our minds to know we left our son in the right place. And like Ruby said, I was getting to be used to send him off because I knew he was ready to face the world, surely with us supporting him.It then brought us to this day. Austin had made an accomplishment so we intended to celebrate it by giving him freedom to choose his new book."Have you decided your choice?" I asked after some times of circling the area. We checked every corner and watched his every reaction to this adventure.He was curious, yes. I could spot it in his eyes. But, there was also excitement at the thought that he would have a new book."Hm." He h

RUBY"I know you love running and have been doing good at it." Wyatt's words rang between us as we sent our son off to the school. "But you need to watch your steps because..." He couldn't even finish the remainder when Austin accidentally tripped on his feet and fell.It was like Wyatt could foresee the future. But the fact was Austin was too careless about his steps. Oftentimes, he fell because he was only thinking about running. He didn't think of the surrounding as well as his ability.Such a typical kid.Austin looked in pain, of course. He fell pretty hard, which left bruises on his knees."Is it hurt?" Wyatt asked after helping Austin to get up. He checked on the scars, which fortunately, were minor scratches.Austin nodded. "My knees hurt, Uncle." He mentioned a specific part of his body."Anywhere else?"This time, it was a shake.So Wyatt rose up and intended to return to the car and bring out the first aid kit. However I stopped him, saying that I would get it for him."It

RUBY"Can you tell me how the story began?"There was only one person on the show I watched through the tablet. And she didn't say it, meaning that it came from someone else behind the camera."It began in our childhood. Our families were friends so we could get close." The only person was smiling shyly as if she was a teenager talking about her crush. "We loved to play with each other. Maybe, that made our parents to arrange our futures."It was an acting, of course.And yes, that person was none other Tina."It sounds like a romance movie." The voice sounded amazed, but not with me. "An arranged marriage with a tycoon is what all girls dream of.""I know. I'm so lucky, aren't I?" Tina laughed before continuing, "But I didn't understand about the arrangements back then and no one told me about that until I graduated from high school.""Then what?""Our families, even though, arranged us to each other, they gave us the freedom to choose our future. I never thought about him or even ma

RUBYHelen and I spent the next few hours, talking and laughing together. It was Friday night so she didn't have to think about her work or assignment for the next day, and it was what made the night fun. Nothing seemed to limit us, except time.I'm a mother now, and as much as I wanted to talk to her all night, I couldn't. I was no longer living alone, I meant only with my son, which Helen couldn't as free as before to stay over. She could, obviously. However with Wyatt's presence and we lived in the same city now, the option was crossed as we could meet everyday. And if I really wanted to stay over, it was better if we rent a suite.I just remembered that she didn't live alone anymore.How about my family?They were fine in the house. There no news from Wyatt so they must be having fun by now."Are you sure Austin is good that you leave him this long?" Helen's question rang in the air. She must have spotted me glancing at my phone from time to time."I think, he is. Look at how quie
