"Femella ..."
I bit my lip and closed my eyes when I heard the baritone voice behind me. I want to stand up and greet him with an eager hug. I also endured a week of not seeing him or hearing his voice. I've been dying to see him and be close to him like what we used to be but everything's changed now. The one he truly loves is back so I have no more space in their lives.I slowly stood in front of Maverick whose face was now full of longing."Fuentebella, I'm glad you're here. You may take a seat."His face got confused with the tone I used. I uttered the words so coldly and without any emotion like we did not know each other.It was hard for him to sit in the chair and just stare at me. I went back to sitting and took the wine glass and brought it to my mouth. The alcohol helped a little to calm the nerves in my body.I carefully set the glass down on the table and looked around the elegant restaurRelated chapters

I looked up from the papers I'm reading when I heard a knock on the door. I saw Christine reluctantly standing in the doorway. I didn't even realize she's been there the whole time."What is it Christine?" I said before immediately returning the focus to what I was doing."Ahm sir, can I go home now? I already asked for your permission earlier so that I'll be out by nine."I glanced at the watch. I didn’t even notice the passage of time."Go ahead. Just make sure to submit first thing in the morning, the minutes of the meeting with Mr. Kazuki." I picked up the mug of coffee while I'm still busy reading but I put it down when I realized it's empty. I was about to get up to make another cup but Christine immediately approached me and took the mug."I'll do it sir."I just nodded.She laid the steaming coffee on the table minutes after."Thank you," I said after taking a sip. "You may go.""Ahm s

"Femella, are you really sure with your decision? Maybe we can change it? Is there nothing to lose?" the surprised Chino asked when he heard what I told Vida that I was leaving this afternoon. He had just come out of the toilet and was in the midst of washing his hands. There were still residues of foam in his hand."I'm sure about it, Chino. My time has come to retire. You're alone again to fantasize about yummy abs at the club." I regretted saying it then looked at Vida who was sitting on the floor like me.I called them to say goodbye properly. Chino was also in his apartment so I told him to stay here. I want to personally say goodbye to the man who made my time at La Vida fun and tolerable.I had already packed up my bags ready to leave. My suitcases are already in the trunk of my old car. I really just went here to say goodbye."Or maybe Adam's descendants won't even look at me anymore. We know they're just trying to pay

"Why did you come back? Man, you should have stayed there forever in your cave. It was so much fun here when you were gone."I threw a crumpled paper at Luther, who was sitting on the edge of the desk and tampering with the stacked papers."You're just happy because you're free to flirt with my secretary. I heard from Ivan that you're starting your dark plan. I'm warning you, man. Leave Christine alone. She's like my sister. Don't line her up with your women. "I signed the finalized design for the capsule hotel that Luther and I would be building."Woah! You're really a different person now, man. You seem to be a saint now. Looks like Femella did something good to you other than break your heart."My hand stopped on its own at the mention of the woman's name. Our separation still hurts me until now. I sighed and diverted the conversation."It looks like we're going to have a problem with the acquisition of some properties. A few

"Anything," I answered right away.Her face became serious. "Take her away from her misery. Please. I hope you can do what I can't do. I thought that after completing her mission, she would let herself be happy but she still thinks she doesn't deserve to be loved." She looked me in the eyes. "Please save her, Fuentebella. Let her realize that she can never be happy without you, please. If you do that, you have paid off your debt." Something stirred inside me at the thought of Femella crying in her solitude. I nodded at Vida."I won't promise anything. Most of all, I'll still respect what she wants. Now, I want her location.""Sta. Barbara."I was momentarily surprised upon hearing that place. Sta. Barbara. Something familiar clicked inside me at the mention of the place."I'm positive you'll get her again. You must not forget that she chose to go back to the place where you two first met." She bent over to pick up the

It's crazy to force yourself to forget the person who reminds you of everything you do. I would wake up in the morning on the other side of the bed thinking that Maverick was there and sound asleep.I would cook a meal then would just stare at the thin air while contemplating his absence. Before I knew it, I needed to make another breakfast because my food was already burning.I'll eat alone, sleep alone, and cry alone. I have experienced being alone for a long time but I was not as sad as I am now. I felt like I lost a part of myself and I can only be happy and content if I take it back.It's been over a month now but I'm not coping well. The loneliness I feel only gets worse.Adding to the emptiness I experience is living here in the place where Maverick and I first met. Everything in this place reminds me of him. When I go to the plaza and to the proper town, he is always the one I remember, especially when I choose to spend the whole day by th

I followed Femella outside. She's wiping away her tears. I hugged her from behind and planted a kiss on her exposed shoulder. She shrugged me off but I did not attempt to leave."No one is playing tricks on you, sweetheart. What I told you is true."She sniffed. "You should go now, Maverick. We're done. We're done so why are you still here looking for me?"I held her to face me and touched her swollen eye."It's true that I respect your decision to leave me. So now, I'm going to ask you for a favor to respect me for my decision to come back for you. Let's stop torturing ourselves, shall we?"I led her to sit on the first rung of the stairs and took her hands."I don't like being indebted to anyone. It's bad for business. So I have to bring you back into my life so I don't owe anything to your weird friend."She looks at me with her puffy red eyes, red cheeks, and red nose that I can't help but dip a kiss

I opened my eyes and looked around. Darkness immediately dawned on me and sadness immediately enveloped me. I moved to the other side of the bed in case Maverick was there. I touched a hot and hard flesh moaning. I heaved out a sigh of relief. So what happened earlier is all true. I’m not delusional or just dreaming. Maverick is really here by my side.I opened the lamp shade before crawling to lie back next to the sleeping man. I crouched under the blanket and propped my elbow on the pillow. I leaned my head on my palm and caressed Maverick's chest. He automatically squeezed my waist as he sank into my chest."Hmm," he muttered. He also put his leg on my thigh so I can't move any further from him. I pushed his lower torso away and adjusted my body so I don't get crushed by his immense weight. My bed is just enough for the two of us in terms of space but I just don't know if it won't give up especially if Maverick thinks of railing me again.I co

I'm already bathing in my own sweat and my dress has been wet already but I don't care. All I want is to take out everything I ate this afternoon. I clung to the toilet bowl and for the last time vomited. I sat on the bathroom floor while clinging to the bowl.I cried in extreme frustration. Is it really this hard to be pregnant?I heard someone open the door and enter. I did not move. I just kept crying. Maverick sat down beside me and wiped my face with a towel. He also flushed all of my vomit down."Feeling better?" He rubbed my back.I nodded. "A little."He caressed my growing belly. “You guys are really torturing mommy. Behave children. Don't make it harder for mommy, okay? ”I glared at Maverick. He always talk to my stomach every day since we came from the doctor days ago. Maverick shouted with happiness upon hearing it. I was moved to tears by mixed emotions. I'm happy and at the same time scared about this new chapter of my life.I remembered being
