Chapter 12: Traveling to Naples
The next day, I decided to continue my story, maybe since it was daytime, I wouldn’t fall asleep easily. We were seated on the silver swing, facing the yard flowers. The vegetation seems to be getting more beautiful with each passing day.
“Where did I stop?” I asked Emiliano. I wanted to know if he remembered the story.“After a horrible night at your grandma’s house, your sister returned in the morning. After explaining her escape strategy, you two went out to get something to eat,” Emiliano responded.“You still remembered! Bravo!” I laughed.“I can’t forget an important story,” he said. “It’s your life story and it’s very much important to me.”“I do matter to you, don’t I?” I asked, smiling at him.“You mean more than matter to me, Ginevra. You mean the world to me, and I can’t ever imagine losing you, too,” he expressed. His voice got me feel sorry for him. It’s more like a fellow feeling.“I’m going no place either, Emiliano,” I assured. “EveRelated chapters
Luna's Reincarnation: Our Sisterly Bond Chapter 13: Lost Spirit
At dawn, I woke up and dialed Luna’s number, still switched off. I went into the bathroom to freshen up. I returned to the bedroom, dressed up, and carried my traveling bag to the living room. I returned to the bedroom to take my phone and change my purse. I went back to the living room, did a silent prayer, and walked to the door. As I opened the door, I was dumbstruck. I let down my bag. Tears fell from my eyes. Luna was laid down with a bruised face, neck, arms, and a sign of a bullet shot in her thigh. I dropped down to my knees. I placed my head on her chest, she was still breathing. I gathered my strength and helped her to the bedroom. I didn’t know what gave me the courage to do all these, but I was grateful. The normal me will weep, fumble around her body, and never think. Thank God for the new me. “I won’t let anything happen to you, I promise,” I assured amid tears. My new me will still cry but with reasoning. At least I knew I needed a doctor. I ran out of the house
Luna's Reincarnation: Our Sisterly Bond Chapter 14: First Intimacy
***I yawned. Emiliano smiled. I was hungry. It was sunset already, no dinner yet.“Let’s go get dinner fixed then,” Emiliano said.I nodded. We headed inside. I carried Phoenix in my arms. When we reached inside, I put Phoenix down on the couch and followed Emiliano to the kitchen. I wanted to join him in fixing dinner tonight. I should become responsible too.“What can I help with?” I asked.He turned to me. “What can you do?” he smiled at me.“I can do many things,” I smiled back, moving to the countertop. I picked up the knife to cut the vegetables. I wonder when last I did that. Even with Luna, I don’t cut vegetables, she only allows me to do the dishes and then hands off. She will do everything else then I will help her to set the dining table. But I do know how to cook. Most times when Luna goes on a business travel, I do cook.“Be careful,” he said. I smiled.He set the pot on fire. We were going to make chicken casserole alongside ric
Luna's Reincarnation: Our Sisterly Bond Chapter 15: The Hoodie Lady
The following morning, I joyfully opened my eyes. I was expecting to see Emiliano still beside me on the bed. He was gone. I yawned tiredly. I needed more sleep, but not now. Where did Emiliano go? Maybe he went downstairs to prepare breakfast. I swung my feet to the floor. I went into the bathroom to freshen up. I returned to the room after some minutes and slid into a simple dress. I headed to the door. I opened the door and descended downstairs. I went directly to the kitchen, he wasn’t there, but breakfast was served. I looked around the living room for him. Maybe he was in the study room. I headed upstairs. I went into the study room, calling out his name, no response. He wasn’t inside the study room. I left for his room and checked the bathroom and every nook and cranny of the room. He must be outside, perhaps, in the yard. I descended the staircase once more. I went out to the yard, the swing was empty, and no one was in the yard. I checked the gazebo. I checked the garage then
Luna's Reincarnation: Our Sisterly Bond Chapter 16: Luna's Attack
I woke up on my bed. I sat up. My eyes darted around the room. I looked behind me. It was a dream. Who was the hoodie lady? She had two identities. One was the one in a red hoodie, and the other who came behind me was wearing a similar hoodie, but white. I saw neither of their faces. Why was she knocking? Who was she looking for? Why was she two? I stood up from the bed and faced the mirror. I looked at my reflection. How time flies. My days of loneliness were complimented by each beautiful moment I spent with Emiliano. God has blessed my shadowed life with a new light of a brighter future. Maybe it’s time I let the past die and face a new beginning. Maybe the two ladies were me. The one in red hasn’t forgotten the past just yet. She lingered in the past where nothing lies, but sorrow, and helplessness. The one in white could be me living my life in a peaceful future. Maybe she was urging me to stop chasing after the past and connect with a beautiful future. If that must be me, then
Luna's Reincarnation: Our Sisterly Bond Chapter 17: Birthday Party
After the incident, Luna hardly left home. Her earlier fears continued. She wouldn’t tell me about it. What was she afraid of?“Luna? Can’t you tell me what troubles you? Why are you scared?” I asked one night after dinner.“I’m scared of not being able to take care of you as per Mother’s last wish. I feel inadequate right now,” she expressed.“Why would you feel that way? You are not inadequate, you are everything to me. I’m not complaining,” I assured her. “You don’t have to be scared of anything. We can handle any situation together. We will tough it out at any challenge we face. Just don’t give up, please.”“I’m glad you understand now. I will always be back for you, I promise,” Luna assured.“Stop saying you will come back, you are going nowhere. We will stick together,” I let out. She smiled.A few weeks on, Luna was back on her feet, hale and hearty. She started all over again. She ran from business to business, delivering her specialty and getti

“Luna?” I called.Luna was standing close to the road, she was going to cross. The distance was foggy. I grabbed her hand. She looked at me, she smiled sorrowfully. Her eyes glowed with tears.“I will be back,” she uttered.Tears streamed down my cheeks. Where was she going? Why was she leaving? Her hand slowly loosen from my grip. Even when I tried to hold on tight, her hand slipped from mine.“Don’t go,” I cried. She was being moved like the wind. My voice couldn’t be heard, it just died off immediately it escaped my lips. “Don’t go, please!’ I begged, but she never heard. She was swept away, across the road to the foggy distance.“No…!” I screamed, jerking up from the bed.Luna rushed in. “Are you okay?” she queried concerned. I sighed in relief. It was a dream, but it felt so real. “Are you fine?” Luna asked again, sitting beside me. I embraced her in tears. “Please, don’t go,” I cried.“It was just a dream. Calm down,” she pacified, fondling my hair. I disengaged the h
Luna's Reincarnation: Our Sisterly Bond Chapter 19: Pregnancy
Two weeks later at night, I woke up to a hot temperature, yet I was shivering. I covered myself up with the duvet. My temperature burnt my skin so badly. I checked the time, it was half past midnight. I couldn’t go call Emiliano. I couldn’t even stand up to go take my phone from the vanity table. I was shaking vigorously. Tears leaked out from my eyes. I was fine before going to bed. What could be wrong? Do I have a fever? I couldn’t sleep anymore. The time was slow. It seems it has stopped ticking. I tossed and turn on the bed. I wish to fall asleep but sleep was far away from my eyes. I was freezing inside while my body burnt like fire. I tried calling Emiliano. I know he wouldn’t hear because I hardly heard myself. The tough night slowly died off. The sounds of early morning birds were heard. I didn’t sleep the whole night. Now that it was morning, I still couldn’t stand up. I was weak, burning, and freezing. I wish Emiliano comes soon. Just as I prayed, Emiliano walked in.“Food
Luna's Reincarnation: Our Sisterly Bond Chapter 20: The Fragment
I got to continue my story. I lay with Emiliano in his room the following day. It was weekend, so he didn’t go to work. We were both facing the ceiling. I wanted to continue my story. I had to, before the wedding.***After the death of Luna, my life turned upside down, dark and cold. Luna was buried in a cemetery. I couldn’t go home. I stayed with my sister. How can I leave her all alone in the cold? She was my everything. I can’t ever leave without her. I sat close to her grave. No more tears in my eyes. My eyeballs were red hot. I couldn’t open my eyes completely because of the sunrise. The sun shone softly on Luna’s grave. I still couldn’t believe Luna was under the earth. All the memories from my birthday were stuck in my head. Why didn’t I stop her? I should have forced her to stay with me.“Luna?” I called out, running into the woods. Where did Luna go? She was just here. “Luna?” I continued calling. I heard no response, just the symphony of the tree branches.
