ClementineIt feels weird. I am aware of everything that Teresa said and what she’s doing. The woman she was with earlier was apparently a lawyer. She explained everything in great detail, but I can’t seem to process anything that is happening.All I could hear was what she said earlier… about Sancho being engaged.“I will keep in touch, Clementine,” Teresa said, eyeing me closely.I couldn’t bring myself to look in her direction, scared that I might show the fear I am feeling deep inside.So, I nodded. I want her gone as soon as possible. Asking questions might make her stay. Having her stay might give her a chance to belittle me more. She didn’t have to say it directly, slap me in the face, or offer me a huge amount of money. She thinks I’m someone she can easily control.“You’ve been so quiet. I hope I didn’t shock you with the news. I don’t know if the engagement is something Sancho already shared with you.”“He—” I barely whispered. Freaking get a grip, Clementine. I cleared my t

I woke up without him again. I already expected this. I went straight to the dining table, and as usual, he already had breakfast prepared for me. There were no notes; he wouldn’t send a text. We’re living under the same roof, and he won’t even talk to me. He has been avoiding me, and I couldn’t even blame him.This is good. It's honestly just a matter of time before we set strict boundaries. But I'm bored. I have nothing to do and nowhere to go in fear that someone from work or an audition will see me. I thought a few months could easily pass by, but boy, was I wrong.I was staring at the window, wondering how I should make my day productive. Yesterday, I tried to learn how to cook. I mean, I know how to cook some cheap dish purposely made for survival and not for enjoyment. So, I spent all day figuring out if the garlic shrimp was too sweet or not buttery enough, or if it was supposed to be spicy.“They said it's a simple dish,” I was muttering to myself. “Am I really this dumb? ”I

“W-what…” Words failed me. I wanted to say something, but I couldn't bring myself to even say a single word.I only stared at the baby.She's beautiful and so small. “I need to wash my hands first.” I wanted to hold her so badly, but all the contents of all the baby and parenting books I read before came flooding in my memory.“You're so beautiful,” I said when Vittoria passed her to me. She showed me the cutest smile. I know she couldn't see me clearly yet, but she has the most beautiful eyes, the most beautiful nose, and the cutest lips and cheeks. Everything.My daughter is the most beautiful thing in the world.I didn't realize I was crying until Vittoria patted my cheeks dry.“How did this happen? Did s-someone bring her here? ” I asked. I wonder if it was Clementine. It has to be her.All this time, she didn't show her face to me. I never heard a single word from her. If she wanted to keep her distance and be away, I could have given her the space she needed.But she left. With

SANCHO“It’s already ten, Mr. Herrera.”“Mr. Herrera.”“Sancho!”I lost grip of my pen and forgot which part of the report I was reading when I heard Vernice’s voice. That was certainly not only a voice. I believe it was a scream I heard. If it were any other employee, I would have easily lost my composure and gotten angry.Who in their right mind would scream at their boss? Vernice, apparently. By the look on her face, she must already know what I’m thinking about. The irritated look is still there, which she tried to mask with a fake apologetic smile.“You know I hate doing that, but I'm afraid this is part of my job.”“Screaming at me?”“If I’ve tried all other options, well, I don’t see why not.”“You always have something to say. Why are you even still here? ” I asked my secretary. I gla
