“What kind of stupid question is that? Of course, I’m not fine. My daughter hates me now. It’s all your fault.”Ellie hates me and I can’t blame her. It was my mistake who took away the lives of the people close to her... Ellie’s only family.Because of me, Ellie became an orphan. She needs to take on difficulties and responsibilities at an early age. I am proud of how strong she became but I am also mad at myself because she could have avoided this kind of loneliness and hardship if it wasn’t for me. I keep on questioning myself why did I do that?! Why did I try to beat the red light?! I should have waited! I was able to wait for her for five years, but why can’t I wait for a minute or two? If I stop and wait for the green signal then her parents will be able to attend their only daughter’s graduation and still be alive until now.I wish I could turn back the time but I know I can’t. All I can do right now is to support Ellie and help her as much as I could. I will no longer dream
I was so devastated after my daughter pushed me away. I talked to my son and asked him to stay with her sister tonight. I know that Amelia needed her brother right now. Even though Amelia bullies her twin brother most of the time, Alistair is still her confidant. I am planning to go to my parent’s mausoleum tonight. I needed to see them with all the things happening now. This is what I always do whenever I feel down and lonely. Just being with my parents comforts me, especially when I start praying to God with them. It is just like when they are still alive, we pray and worship God together. It’s a good thing that I made this mausoleum exactly like our home, especially in times like this. I can stay here for as long as I want. When I went inside and saw my parent's grave, tears start to fall again. Losing them only seems like yesterday. “Mom,” My voice broke. “My daughter hates me. She doesn’t want to listen to my explanation. She thought that I will take them away from their fa
“Ellie, my brother committed suicide.”“W-what?!” Kaela didn’t say anything. She just kept on crying. My heart was beating so fast. “Kaela please tell me you are kidding. Ulie did what?” I said a bit shaking. But again Kaela did not answer and just kept on crying. My children started to ask me what happened because my tears are flowing again.I took a deep breath. I need to gather myself together because my children are with me. I can’t tell them about what happened. I shake my head and smiled at them. “Nothing. Your Aunt Kaela just wanted me to see your dad.”They just nodded but I know that they are not convinced by my answer. We went straight to the hospital. I called Luna and asked her to go to the hospital because I needed her to take care of my children.When we reached the hospital Luna was already there. “I heard what happen. How is he?” She said upon seeing me. “I don’t know yet. I need to talk to Kaela first. Can you get the kids and take care of them?” I asked. Luna
I thought that life is so unfair. I even hated God for letting all of this happen. I only loved one woman in my life, but why did God allow me to be the reason for her sufferings? I hated God so much that I tried to kill myself. I feel like, my mere existence is the cause of the suffering of many people. The suffering of the people I love. They said when you don’t understand, you just need to trust God. I failed to do this. I failed to trust Him. One thing God has proved to me was, that He is still in control. He did not let me die, instead, He gave me what I longed desire, and that is Ellie. I can’t believe that she asked me to marry her. It felt like a dream. I can’t believe that I am here on the altar waiting for her to walk down the aisle. Today is our wedding day. Our family and friends were delighted when they found out that Ellie and I will get married. The twins cried with happiness. They have been praying for this to happen, day and night. I can’t stop my tears from f
Flashing lights, loud music, and a large crowd. In the middle, you will see dancing bodies tangled together. You will also see people kissing and making out on the dance floor and on the tables.A typical scenario in a bar.I usually went here for social events and gatherings. I have my mini bar in my penthouse, so I don't need to go here.But tonight is an exemption. I am here with a mission.I visited an OB to have myself checked. And as per her, based on my period calendar, tonight is a high chance for me to get pregnant, and I don't want to miss it.I never had a boyfriend. I'm too focused on my career, and I had no time for love. Also, most of the guys were intimidated by my achievements.I'm an orphan. My parents died when I was 20 years old. I lost them on my graduation day. I graduated summa cum laude. I was about to have my speech when I received a call; it was from the hospital. My parents are on the way here when they met an accident. They were dead on arrival.At a very yo
Two lines.I gently touched my belly. Finally!"Hi, baby! Thank you for coming into my life. I'm your mommy Ellie." I whispered.I didn't expect that I will be this emotional. Maybe because of the hormones. I can’t help but cry because of too much happiness.Finally, I will have someone to be with me.Finally, I will have someone I can share all my achievements with.It was almost two months after I went to that bar and met the guy who helped me fulfill my plan.I can't deny how gorgeous and hot that guy is. I did not regret that I have given him my virginity.I can still remember what happened that night.I remember the first time he entered me. I felt like he considered the fact that I'm a virgin. He was so gentle but full of passion.But that guy is insatiable and big. I didn’t know how did I survive after doing that with him. I can’t even count how many rounds we made.I was so thankful when finally he already felt exhausted, and he finally let me go. It’s not that I did not enjoy
I can't contain the happiness that I am feeling right now. I have two children in my womb. Thank you, Lord! After my check-up, I first went to a drug store to buy my doctor-prescribed vitamins and milk.I also called my secretary to put my check-ups on my schedule."Wait! What do you mean by schedule on your OB? Who is pregnant?" My secretary Luna asked, a bit confused. Luna is not only my trusted secretary but also my best friend. I never had a close friend when I was in school. I was so focused on my studies and family that I had no time to make friends. And I am not regretting anything because I know that in the short time that I had spent my time with my parents, I knew that I was able to make the most of it. I first met Luna a year after I took over the company. I was so serious with my work. I never had time for myself. I'm also very strict when it comes to my employee. The reason why most of my employees are scared of me but Luna is different.Even if I keep on shouting a
"You better tell me what the hell happen? How did you get pregnant? You don’t even have a boyfriend!” Luna asked me, almost hysterical. I just rolled my eyes. "Simple. I had a one-night stand.""What?! Y-you had w-what?!" Her eyes widen from what I said.I giggle upon seeing her reaction. “Stop giggling, Penelope Quinn, it’s not funny! How did you have a one-night stand when you don’t even go to a bar alone because you are allergic to people?!” My head hurts from all Luna’s rants. I don’t think she will stop interrogating me until I tell her everything. "I planned this pregnancy, okay?! You know that for six years I've been living alone. I miss my family. I want my family back, but I know that’s impossible to happen! I want to have a family of my own but with my attitude and achievements, do you think I will find a guy who is perfect for me?” I said frustratedly. Her face became serious, and she sat on the chair across mine. He held my right hand and gently pressed it. "Of cours
