Loving You Again (English) のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

“Darling, have breakfast first before you leave!” her father called from the kitchen.Kacee quickly clipped a red hairpin into her hair before carefully applying a touch of lip tint on her lips. She grabbed her newly bought baby foundation and dabbed some on her face, finishing off with a light shade on her eyelids.“What are you doing? It’s taking you so long!” her father called out again.Once she was done getting ready, Kacee hurried out of her room and went downstairs to the kitchen.“What’s on your face?” her father asked with a frown.“Am I beautiful?” she asked playfully.“Darling, you’re beautiful even without makeup,” her father said in a gentle tone.“Of course! My baby is beautiful with or without makeup,” her mother added warmly as she poured water into the glasses on the dining table.Kacee walked over to them, kissed both their cheeks, and then happily took her seat at the table. The family enjoyed a cheerful breakfast together before her father drove her to school.Bein

“It’s okay. I can just call a taxi—” Kacee began, but the man immediately cut her off.“Don’t worry, I just want to help,” said the stranger standing in front of her.“But I’m not asking for help,” she replied firmly.“But I can see that you need it—” This time, she was the one who interrupted him.“Can you please mind your own business?” she snapped, turning her back on him.But before she could take another step away, he suddenly grabbed her arm, startling her.“Don’t touch me!” she shouted, quickly jerking her arm away from his grasp.“Oops, sorry—”“Are you some kind of pervert?” she asked angrily, catching him off guard.“W-what?” he stammered.“If you bother me one more time, I’ll call the police,” she warned.He immediately raised both his hands in surrender. “You’re unbelievable. I just wanted to help, Miss—”“I already told you I don’t need your help! What part of that don’t you understand?” she snapped again.“Fine, I won’t bother you anymore,” he said with a small laugh.Ka

“Why did you do that to me? Why did you make me believe you cared? Was I never truly important to you? When you said you liked me, was it all just a joke? I believed you—I trusted your words when you said you’d come. I waited for you even when it was clear you wouldn’t show up. I waited until the night grew deep.”Kacee shook her head, trying to brush off those thoughts. Gently, she tapped both her cheeks as if to wake herself up. Why was she even rehearsing what she would say the day she finally faced that man?Three swift weeks had passed, and now the day she had been dreading was drawing near. She would have to face him soon—and she had no idea how she was supposed to do that.Even just seeing him from a distance was already enough to stir her emotions uncontrollably. How much harder would it be to stand in front of him? To actually speak to him?“Should I just resign from work?” she whispered to herself, letting out a deep sigh.“Ms. Samiano.”She immediately turned toward th

Kacee felt a sharp pain in her head and body, prompting her to slowly open her eyes. Her vision was blurry, so she closed them again, then reopened them after a moment.She exhaled heavily. When her sight finally cleared, she blinked several times. She studied the ceiling above her, then slowly let her gaze wander around.“Where am I?” she asked herself silently.She moved her head to observe her surroundings, her brows furrowing when she realized she didn’t recognize the place she was in.Because of that, she quickly sat upright—only to wince in pain when a sudden throbbing struck her head. She squeezed her eyes shut as dizziness washed over her.“Shit,” she whispered weakly.She calmed herself first, and when she felt a little better, she slowly pushed herself into a sitting position on the bed. Her eyes searched her body beneath the thick, large blanket. Her shock grew when she saw that even the dress she was wearing wasn’t familiar to her.“What happened to me?” she asked herself

Kacee yawned as she got out of bed, rubbing her eyes as she reached for the alarm clock on the bedside table to turn it off. She was still incredibly sleepy, having only slept for about two hours.Her mind had been restless all night, replaying the foolishness of what she had done. Even now, she couldn’t fully accept everything that had happened with the man she both despised and hated. The weight of it all pressed heavily on her, knowing she had given in to him. It was infuriating—he had taken something from her, and she couldn’t stand it.She couldn’t even count how many times she had blamed herself for what had happened. In the end, all the guilt fell on her own shoulders. It had all happened because of her carelessness. If only she hadn’t gone out with Jema and Mikay that night. If only she hadn’t accepted the drinks they offered her. Then none of what happened with that foolish man would have happened.“Urgh! Damn it!” she muttered angrily to herself.She sprang out of bed and st
