BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 23: TROUBLE
Dale’s POV“Where have you been?” Stacey asked the moment I got in.“Downstairs. I accompany her” I simply replied.“Why are your eyes red? Did you cry---”“No. Something got into my eyes while going up here, so I scrubbed it because it was itchy… it still hurts now” I lied.What I did was heavy and torturous. I wanted to turn back and hug her and take all the words I said, but if I did that, I would only make her miserable. From now, I just want to make her forget about me and move on. I have to do whatever to save her.“Do you want me to put some eye drops?” she asked.“Hm”If I denied her offer, she might notice that I was really lying to her.“Sit. I’ll put you some”I sit on the couch and elevate my head so she can put some of it.“How was your business going?” she asked.“Good. It’s doing fine”She looked at me and smiled after she was done putting on some eye drops.“She’s nice. I like her” she stated.I couldn’t say a word to agree with her because it might cause misunderstand
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 24: LIVE ON
Ken’s POV“What happened to her?” Manang Celia asked.“She has a lot of alcohol intake”“Can you bring her to her room?”I did as Manang Celia asked me to do. I gently laid her on the bed before taking off her heels. She looks so innocent and calm. I caress her hair to the side that slightly covers her eye. You’re still the beautiful woman in my sight.“Thank you, Ken, for bringing her into the room. Did you drink together?” Manang Celia asked.“No. She was alone. The owner of the bar was my friend and he told me that she was there”“Thank God nothing happened to her especially that she was alone. Do you know the reason why she drowned herself with alcohol?”I can see that she’s genuinely worried about Chelsea. She was like her own child.“I also don’t know”“She wouldn’t drink this much if she’s not going through something”I believe that too. She’s not the type to get wasted for no reason and when no one’s with her.“Thank you so much for taking care of her”“You know I always care
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 25: MARRY ME
Chelsea’s POV“Are you sure about this?”I look at Dad and give him an assuring smile. He’s not putting pressure on me but I want to do this on my own will. I have decided. I want to do this for them.“I’ve made my decision. It took me this long because I thought I could find another way to help but I was wrong”“I don’t want to put you in a tight situation and regret it later on”“Dad, it’s okay. I’ll do it”“Okay”He was unsure what to say last night when I told them that I would do the marriage. He was stunned and confused as to why I suddenly changed my mind but I kept insisting and I assured them that I’d be fine.We headed to the house of the family of the person that I’ll be marrying. This will be the first time I’ll be seeing them. I don’t know what to expect or how to react but I’ll be as pleasing as I can.“We’re here. Let’s go”The house looks very modern. It’s refreshing to see. They have good taste in design though. As we entered the house, a man welcomed us.“Mr. Castro,
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 26: NOT SO HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Chelsea’s POV“I want you to marry me”“What?! Are you crazy?!”I don’t know what should I feel. I’m shocked and overwhelmed. At that moment I couldn’t understand everything that he was saying.“Will you listen to me first?”“Save your explanations! I don’t want to hear it!”I madly turned my back and walked away. I don’t have the energy left to listen to him. I’ve had enough for this day. All I know is that he lied and I felt toyed.“Chels please can you listen?”“Don’t touch me!!” I firmly stated and took my hand back.“It’s not how you think it is!”“Then what?!! Tell me what it is about Ken!!”I couldn’t contain my tears and my emotions. My inside is exploding in anger.“I just want to help”“I don’t need your help and I don’t need you!!”For the second time, I walk out leaving him there. This time I wouldn’t let him stop me again.“The partnership will still happen even without the marriage”But those words from him made me. I looked back and he was seriously looking at me.“What
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 27: WAIT A LITTLE LONGER
Chelsea’s POV“What’s with the frowning early in the morning?” Dad asked.“Since when did you come here?” I asked in surprise.“Just now and that face welcomed me. Anything bothering you?”He sits next to me. I took a sigh before saying anything.“Not a big deal Dad. It’s my problem” I simply replied.When they decided to live somewhere closer to their work, I was left there and I felt disconnected from them that I couldn’t cry or nag at them when things messed up. It was Dale who fulfilled that role for me.“Is it about the marriage?”“Huh?”I was surprised that Dad seemed to read what was going on inside my mind. I don’t have reason to deny that to him though.“I’m just overwhelmed with everything”“I’m sorry, my princess”I look at Dad and he’s giving an apologetic reaction.“I want to help you. This is the least I can do”“Come here”She wraps her arm around me so I dig myself close to him leaning on his chest while his chin rests on my head. I miss the feeling of being babied by
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 28: BECAUSE OF ME
Chelsea’s POV“Dad?” I was stunned to see Dad standing close to us. He’s looking straight at me and I couldn’t explain the reaction on his face.I turned back to Dale and asked him to leave us and come back the other time. I can see that he was hesitant but he just left. I walk close to Dad while he’s not moving at all.“Let’s talk inside” he coldly stated.I followed him to the living room and sat and asked me to do the same.“Why didn’t you tell me?” he seriously asked.I bit my lower lip because I couldn’t give him an answer. I feel guilty and disappointed that he has to know about it that way.“Do you ever plan to tell us?”At this point, Dad’s voice intensifies. I know that he wants to hear an answer from me. I turned fragile and at any moment I knew that my tears would gradually fall.“Chelsea! Are you even listening?!” Dad suddenly yelled at me.I was surprised and that triggered my tears to finally fall instantly. I could only cry in front of him but I couldn’
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 29: WORST DAY
Dale’s POV[KNOCKING] I ran to the door and hurriedly opened it thinking that Chelsea had come back but I was wrong.“Stacey, what are you doing here?” I directly asked.I thought it was Chelsea.“Are you drinking?” she asked after her sight went through the dining where cans of beer were scattered.“Uhm… yes I was”“With whom?”“I’m with myse---”“I saw Chelsea leaving. Is she from here?”“Y-yes…”“Are you not going to let me in?”“Yeah, sure come in”I don’t have a choice but to let her in and tell her an alibi why Chelsea was here.“She needed a friend to talk to because she’s… heartbroken”That was such a lame reason! I couldn’t think of any reason to say. I haven’t even anticipated this situation.“Heartbroken? Does she have a new boyfriend? His fiancée just died…”I suddenly realized that it was the reason to tell.“I guess she’s dating… new people to forget about his fiancée”“It must be hard for her. Is she okay?” she casually asked.“Yeah. I guess”“You’re good wit
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 30: END OF PROPOSAL
Chelsea’s POV“Dad? Mom?”I saw them on the couch as I opened my eyes. I looked around and looked for Ken but he wasn’t there. Was I hallucinating last night? I heard his voice before I passed out but I didn’t see his face. Was that someone else that I mistakenly thought to be Ken? It feels so real.“Chels”They, especially Mom, worriedly came close to me and held both of my hands. “Did you happen to see… ken?”“Who… no one was here when we arrived. We just received a text message last night that you are here so we rushed to come”“Hm”I wasn’t thinking of him but why would I hallucinate of him? Somehow, I was hoping that it was actually him.“Are you feeling something? Are you okay?” she asked.I faintly smile at her and shake my head to say that I’m okay. I was surprised when Mom suddenly burst out in front of me.“Why didn’t you *sobs* tell us?”I looked at Dad and I got the signal that he already told Mom about it. Mom is whining on my side while I watch her and wait until she ca
