I promise myself that I will never fall in love with Ulie again. He broke my heart once, and he can do it again if I let myself fall for him again. I thought that I will never meet him again, but fate has its way. He became the father of my children and now we are living together. He always tried to win my heart but I always rejected him. I can see that he changed a lot compared to when we were in college. He’s more mature and responsible now. But I can’t accept him because I am afraid that I will get hurt again because of him. I am also not sure if he likes me for me or just because of the twins. After hearing that he once tried to end his life, everything changed. It pains me from thinking that I will lose him forever. I don’t think I can handle that. I want him to remember me completely but if remembering me means the possibility of him remembering his trauma and will encourage him to end his life then I don’t want it anymore. We can build a new memory together. I decided to for
When Ellie finally gave me a chance to win her heart, I can’t explain how happy I am. Though I am bothered by the memories that I can’t remember since Ellie is part of the memories I lost, I’m still happy because now, I have a chance to make her mine completely. I have been using the twins as an excuse to stay in her penthouse. We only agreed to let me stay with them for a year, but I keep on reasoning the twins the reason why she had no choice but to let me stay with them. I love her. I don’t when I started to fall in love with her. Maybe when I first met her in the club, that’s why I let my guard down, or maybe I already love her when we were in college, I was just so stupid not to know it. But one thing is for sure, I am deeply and madly in love with her. She is the only girl I will love in my life. I want to give Ellie a date that she will never forget, that’s why I brought out my special card, the twins. I ask for their help on the dinner date that I was planning for Ellie. I
“I’m sorry Ulysses, I can’t tell you about that.” My forehead creased. “Why?” “Your parents ask me not to tell you about her because they are afraid that you will remember everything and you will try to kill yourself again.” He said in a calm voice. “Did my parents know about Ellie?” I asked him. I’m a bit confused because when Ellie and I talk to them, they act as if they don’t know my story with Ellie. If Quen is saying now that my parents were the ones who ask him not to say anything to me, then they knew my relationship with Ellie during our college days. Why are they acting as if they are clueless about this thing? “They knew that you had a girl you like in the Philippines. But they don’t that the girl was Ellie. They did not ask for any details about her because their main concern was to keep the girl a secret to you.” I’m a bit satisfied knowing that my parents are not pretending about Ellie. I also understand why they came up with that plan. I messed up big time. “I und
I decided to stop forcing Quen to tell me about my lost memories. I know he means well, he always did. He is my best friend after all. I still want to know the memories I lost but at the same time, I’m scared to find them out. I feel like those memories will have a big impact on my relationship with Ellie. I just can’t figure out exactly what it is. Ellie and I were free from work because today is Saturday. Weekends are always dedicated to our twins. When the twins came out from the world, Ellie and I agreed that we can be very busy with work from Monday to Friday but our time during weekends will be solely for the twins. Our work can’t disturb our weekends no matter what happens. And I think we did a great job because the twins are very understanding whenever Ellie and I were busy with work. Ellie sometimes goes home very late for two or three consecutive days and the kids will not be able to see her presence during those days. They never complain because Ellie never missed a weeke
We are all exhausted from yesterday’s family bonding in the amusement park. But it was all worth it. The kids enjoyed the activities that we did yesterday. They are requesting to go back there and we promise them that we will surely go back there to try the other activities that we weren’t able to experience because of lack of time. Even though we are still tired from yesterday’s event, we still need to get up and get ready because we will be visiting the twin’s grandparents and their favorite Auntie Kaela. Kaela is set to leave the country tomorrow. The twins will surely miss her, especially Alistair. And speaking of Alistair, he was the one who got up early because of today’s event. “Mom, can you be a little faster? The time is running and my time with Auntie Kaela is lessened.” Alistair went to my room to tell me to hurry up. I am done with my skincare. I decided to just put a powder and lip tint to my cheek and lips to finish quickly or else Alistair will throw a tantrum, thou
"Ellie, the team is ready for our meeting.""Great, I'll be in the conference room in a bit," I told Luna before I hang up the intercom.I ask Luna to inform all the people involved in the Schulz project because I have a few instructions for them.The team fixes their seats when they saw me enter the conference room."Good morning guy! I'm sorry for the sudden meeting." I started my speech."We are all aware that we got the deal with Schulz Tech. This is another major project for CIC. But I am not the one heading this project."All of them look shocked from what I just announced. Normally, when CIC has a major project like LHI and Hearst, I was the one who is leading the project. While the order projects were headed by the respective head of the department."Why Ms. Cabello? Are we expecting another major project?" Mr. Rosalez, our head engineer asked.I shook my head. "No, it's not because of that. I just realize that I should also entrust you guys with these kinds of projects. I bel
We were having dinner when I noticed Alistair's sad face."Hey, Alistair is something wrong? You look sad." I can't help but ask."Mom is Auntie Kaela has a boyfriend?" He said teary eye.I shook my head. "None that I know of. Why?""We went to the airport to accompany Aunt Kaela then a guy came. They are arguing but I saw Aunt Kaela's face blushing whenever the guy said something to her. Then they went to the plane together." Alistair started to cry.I panic when Alistair began to cry. I went to him to console him. I was confused because I am not aware that Kaela is seeing someone. I look at Ulie to ask for his confirmation."Do you know anything about this?" I asked Ulie while still consoling Alistair.He shook his head. "I had no idea. I might ask mom and dad about it.""Grandma seems to like the guy for Aunt Kaela. She asks him to take good care of her." Amelia said.She looks happy about it, a total opposite of what his twin brother felt."Honey, I know you are sad because you fe
"Is mom going home late tonight, dad?" Amelia asks while looking at the door of their room."Maybe a bit late. But don't worry princess, mom will come home before you went to bed."I was also concerned about Ellie. She did not send me a message that she will be home late. Normally, she will send me and the kids a message that she will be late and that we don't need to wait for her. Though, there were also days that she was a bit late so she didn't bother to send us a message. But now is a bit different, she was 3 hours late from her usual schedule. She was supposed to be here at 6 pm. I decided to give her a call. After three rings, Ellie answers my call."Ellie, where are you?" I asked."I'm almost home. Sorry, I forgot to send you a message. Did you guys already have your dinner?" She asked."Yes, we did. Though, the kids want to wait for you. But I don't want to be scolded by you for not eating on time. Did you already have your dinner?" I asked.“You did great Ulie. Our kids' hea
