And don't wake up in the middle of the night" Ethan ate up and turned towards her "Seconds" He said with a smile "I'm sorry, Ethan. That's all I had today. I'll get more tomorrow" She said.

I sometimes see him in our garden fixing flowers even though he looks so big and scary, but he’s nice and a softie. One time I visited him after hearing that he had an accident while chopping firewoods. He was accidentally injured by a rusty and old ax that his coworker was using.

He was in his 50’s and the Don very much knew who he was. “Mr. Renato Salcedo. A business tycoon and a successful surgeon who is renowned not only in the Philippines but also in other parts of the world. You have been accepted to the Alpha brotherhood like a real family and yet, here you are, sitting on our infamous silya elektrika,” Don Arnulfo taunted as he approached the man’s direction. The Don spoke a heavy accent but the Spanish words that came out of his mouth slipped through his tongue smoothly.

I don't know how he knew this, but how, where, and whoever the reason he went to was right. He is coming down to open me, his act is really like gentelman. I don't know why he is like this despite the rejection I gave him. "Thank you, sir." I thanked him when I got out of his car. He supported me and we went inside.

My head was still not in its right position to adjust to this luxurious lifestyle.

Who would not be distracted? “You should eat with me,” he mumbled and then he placed the bowl of his cook in the center of the dining table. My mouth started to waterfall when I saw that what he is cooking is pork menudo. This is a famous dish from the Philippines. While I was admiring the food, he went back to the stove only to come back while holding two plates of white rice. “Come on, let’s eat.” He offered me the plate. At first, I was not going to accept it. I still have the pride in myself to follow the rules that I made. I was trying hard to hide the waterfall from my mouth. But I just can’t handle it.
