“So, why did you ask me to meet you?” I asked coldly to the woman in front of me.
She looked at me seriously. “We need to talk, Agatha.”
I chuckled. “We’re talking now, Almira,” I said sarcastically.
She sighed. “I mean, talking. Seriously. Serious talk, Agatha, that’s what I’m asking,” she answered, pissed off.
“Oh, so, we’re not talking ‘seriously’ right now?” I nodded and sipped on my wine.
“You know what, this talk will not go well. Talking to you is nonsense! You always think that everything’s a play! Grow up and be serious, Agatha!” She scolded me. She even slammed the table.
I looked up at her, since I’m sitting and she’s standing up.
“Excuse me, Almira? Why are you acting like a grown-up now?” I said.
She stopped. “Why? I am a grown-up, Agatha! You’re the only one that&rsq
After my day full of meetings, Caleb treat me in a fancy restaurant.We’re currently dating when someone called him and he’s still talking to that person.“What’s taking him so long?” I asked myself bored, when someone sits in front of me, where Caleb’s sitting earlier.“Looks like your date ditch you,” he said with a smirk. I scoffed. “Eh? He’s just talking to someone, emergency you know.” I said, defending Caleb.“Hm. But I saw you waiting for him like...” he stopped and looked at his wrist watch. “Like 30 minutes already.”What he said was real. I’ve been sitting and waiting for Caleb for like 30 minutes, just like this man said.“Maybe the call is just so emergency.” I said, still defending Caleb.“Come on. Don’t fool yourself, Agatha. You know he ditched you — or not ditch but he’d left.” He sa
“Hey, sorry about yesterday,” I apologized to Caleb on phone.I heard him chuckled. “Sorry? You’re sorry about what?”I rolled my eyes even he can’t see it. “Duh? I did not inform you that my sister, Almira, was there in my office.”“Oh, that? No, that’s fine. Maybe I even disturbed you two.”“Na-ah. Not really. Actually, Almira and I were fighting that time,” I confessed.“Uh... what? I mean, why are two fighting?” He asked. I don’t know how to tell him that Almira wants me to help her seek justice for Dad, and that I don’t want to help her.“Hello? Tatiana, you still there?” He asked but I remained silent.“Earth to Agatha Tatiana!” He said and laughed.“Uh, sorry, Caleb. I was just really occupied right now. There are some family matters that Almira and I are fighting about. It’s just a mi
“You did what?” Caleb asked unbelievably.With my eyes full of tears, I look up at him and saw his side that I never saw before.“Ca-caleb, I didn’t mean to do that! My... my Mom forced me to... to... to did... that,” I stuttered.His eyes are red, like he’s trying to stop his tears from falling down.“Agatha, I f*cking trusted you! And you did what? You f*cking ruined that trust!” He shout as he throw the vase beside me. I jumped as the vase cracked into pieces.“Please... please...” I begged. He looked at me disgustingly as he kneel down to face me.“You are a... piece of sh*t! You are a wh*re! A slut! A f*cking bitch that f*cks everyone, every man!” He shout right in front of my face. I covered my ears.“NO! No... no, no, no, no! No! No... you...” I looked up at him. “You did not call me names... you love me, you’re just mad. Yeah, you&r
“Are you really sure about this?” Molly asked sadly. I looked at her sadly but with full of seriousness.I nodded. “Yeah... I have to.”“But you promised,” Jill said.We’re currently at Xavier Airport. Yesterday, they drove me back to Pampanga. And I decided to go back on States.“I know. I promised you guys that I’ll stay ’til New Year, but things goes unplanned.” I sighed. “It’s really a huge mistake to go back here,” I said.Molly hugged me, a later on, I heard her sobs. “What the–! Why are you crying, Molly?” I asked sweetly. Like I’m talking to a child.“Sorry. It’s just that... I’m gonna miss you, Tatiana. I know that you really don’t want me to be your friend but I still insist. To be honest, I just befriended Almira because of you. I really wanna go get close to you so even if you don’t want me, I
“Hey, Tatiana! How are you doing there? It’s been three months!” Molly said while we’re facetiming.I smiled at her. She’s on a photoshoot right now but she still managed to have time with me.“Hey, Molly, your Manager might scold you, you’re stubborn.” I laughed.She frowned. “OH, MY GOSH! WAIT!” I screamed. I saw her jumped from the other line because her camera shakened.“Wha–what?” She asked worriedly.I laughed at her then take a screenshot of her face. “Can you make that frown again?” I pouted.“Why? For what?”“Nothing. You look cute in there! Please, make it again!” I pouted more.She laughed then fake frown again. “YEY! THANK YOU! Gonna make that my wallpaper.”“Huh? Why? Are you my girlfriend now, huh?”I rolled my eyes on her. While setting her frowning face as my pho
I am busy checking my report for the third-time when my phone started ringing. I looked unto it and saw Almira's name requesting face time. I sighed and answered it. "What do you need?" I asked right away. "Tatiana. . ." She called me. "I'm sorry but Alexander is giving up his position as the CEO of Dad's company. He also removed you as one of the stakeholders." She informed. My eyes widened. “WHAT?!” “I...I’m sorry, Agatha. That’s what Tiara ordered us to do,” Almira apologized while keeping her head down. “Almira, you know that, that bitch is a fucking psychopath!” “I know. I know, but she has my daughter! What do you want me to do? To disobey her and let her kill my daughter!” Almira confessed while tears are streaming down her face. I was taken aback. I know how hard it is for her right now. I understand her pain. She just wants what’s better for her daugter. Almira’s weakness is her daughter, so Tiara get her daughter so s
I am looking at my phone while pacing back and forth. My hands are trembling and I'm having cold-sweat. Should I call Almira? Should I tell them that I'm pregnant? Should I---ugh! What the hell! I inhaled deeply and clicked the call button. It started ringing, then after three ri “Okay, so why did you gather us here?” Almira asked when I asked her, Alexander and Alvin to go to my unit. Good thing they are all here in States for a vacation. “Um, I reall don’t know how to say this...” I said nervously. “Come on, sis, tell us!” Alvin said while grinning. I rolled my eyes on him while chuckling. “I mean, I’m kinda nervous. What if you guys judge me? Like–oh, my God! This is crazy...” I whispered. Almira smiled. “Come on. I thought you’re reuniting with us?” She asked while pouting. “Tatiana, we’re not gonna judge you, ’kay? We’re siblings.” Alexander said and tapped my head. I looked down while playin
“So, do you wanna go shopping today?” Almira asked while smiling.We’re currently at the couch while the boys are renovating the other room that will become my baby’s room. Almira and I are fixing the toys that will be put there.“Almira, don’t you think it’s too early?”She stopped doing the toys and looked up on me. “Duh? It’s not. We’re just doing it early because you don’t want to rush, do you?”We both chuckled and I shake my head. “’Course not.”“Yeah, us, too.” We laughed.“Hayyy...” Alvin sighed as he sat on the couch.“Almira, your husband’s calling.” Alexander said. I saw Almira’s smile vanished.Alexander hand her the phone and she stood up.“What do you need?”I just ate silently while the boy’s talking seriously.It’s getting awk
