Planned Baby Family Day
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
Planned Baby Leaving
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

Planned Baby Secret Meeting
Hadley did not have a second thought when I asked her to meet me. I wanted my meeting with Hadley to be a secret to everyone, so I chose a restaurant where it can give us privacy.I was already in the restaurant's private room when Hadley texted me that she was there. A few moments later, I saw Hadley enter the room."Hi, Hadley! I'm glad that you agree to meet me." I greeted Hadley.I assist Hadley to her seat then returned to my seat. I asked the waiter to get our orders."You know that I can't say no when it comes to you," Hadley said in a seductive tone.I just smile at her. When our orders came, Hadley and I started to eat. It was so quiet. No one is taking the initiative to start a conversation.I cleared my throat. "I head you offer Ellie a big project?" I decided to break the silence.She laughed. "Well, it's obvious that she already went to you. What did she say to you? I'm sure she already badmouthed me to you."I shook my head. "Ellie is not that kind of person, Hadley. It

Epilogue
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

“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

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

Amelia knows the truth
“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

All your fault
“What’s there to explain about? We heard about your plan with her loud and clear! You are so selfish, mom! I hate you!” Amelia shouted then she went out of my office.I glared at Hadley. She covers her mouth. “Oppps, I’m sorry! But don't worry everything will be alright after I execute my plan. Bye!” Then she went out of my office as if she won a lottery. I felt so weak. My daughter hates me more now. But what is she doing here? I was about to go to Luna and ask her why Amelia was in my office when I saw Alistair looking at me. I went to him and hold his hand. “Alistair I will explain.” Alistair nodded which gave me a huge relief. “Before that, we need to find your sister,” I told him then we both went out and look for Amelia. One of my employees told us that they saw Amelia going down the elevator. When we reach the lobby, one of the guards told us that Amelia already left. Just a second after the guard informed me about Amelia, my phone receives a call from the bodyguard I a

“Hi, Ellie. Amelia called me and she wants me to take her to the mansion.” Karma explained when I was the one who opened the door for her.I just nodded and I open the door widely for her to come in. I showed her to the twins’ room. I saw both of them sitting on their respective bed. But Amelia has a bag with her, looking determined to leave me. I controlled my tears from falling. I know I messed up big time. I guess they are better to stay in Escarrer mansion than be with me. I was still mourning for my parents. I was not able to mourn for them before because things happened so quickly that I find it hard to absorb everything. I was in denial for years. I don’t want to accept the reality. I pretended that everything is alright and nothing has changed. I took over the company as soon as the funeral was over. I took as many workloads as I could so that when I went home I don't have time to think of anything and just sleep. I have been doing that for many years until one day my de

“Come back home. The kids are waiting for you.”I was stunned for a moment. We often believe that everything happens for a reason. But I can’t seem to figure out why all these things happened. Why did God let me fall for someone responsible for my parents’ death? Why did God let me have children with him? I even let myself believe that Ulie was the one for me. “Are you okay?” I did not notice Luna’s presence. I was so consumed by my emotion. “I would be lying if I told you that I am okay because it’s so obvious that I am not,” I told Luna. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have asked that. That was insensitive of me.” Luna said looking apologetic. I shook my head. “That’s nothing. I know you mean well.” “So what’s your decision? Are you going back to your penthouse?” Luna asked. I nodded. “If Ulie will leave the penthouse then I need to go back home. No one will take care of the twins in our home. Also, I already miss them and I know they miss me too.” One thing I’m grateful about is

Alone Time
I woke up with a heavy heart. I look at myself in the mirror. My eyes were swollen from crying all night. I still can’t believe that this is all happening. I can’t believe the person I entrusted my heart to broke it again for the second time. I regret meeting him. My phone rang. It's the phone we gave to the twins. “Hello?” “Mommy! Where are you? Why are you not staying in the house? Are you with dad?” Amelia asked. My eyes started to well up again. “I... I was at your grandparents’ mausoleum. I dream of them and they said that they miss me. So I might stay here for a while.”“What will happen to us then? Dad is still in the hospital. And you are staying at grandma and grandpa’s mausoleum.” Amelia asked. Her voice sounds so sad. I bit my lower lips. I’m sorry my children. I can’t meet you right now. I’m feeling devastated and I might not be able to hide it in front of you. I may hate your dad but I don't want you guys to know what happened in the past. I don't want to pass this

“I was the one who killed your parents. I was the one who causes the accident.”“What are you saying?” I was so worried when Ulie suddenly passed out after he was shouting for pain. I immediately call the ambulance. Flashback The first person that came out of my mind was Quen. I called him and told him about what happened. “How is he?” Queen said as soon as he arrived at the hospital. “The doctor said that he is stable now. But they will run some tests to find out why he was suddenly in pain.” I said. “What happened?
