MELISSA QUIZONI didn't wait for wright to drive me. I woke up earlier and rode a taxi. I know Reid will look for me but it would be up to Wright to explain to him. I did not go straight to school. Instead, I went to the hospital-owned by Eugene.I was speculating that I see him there. I want to talk to him. I want him to ease my mood. I have to take it out because if I don't, I'm going to explode.I entered the hospital and went to the reception area.I smiled at the nurse in charge. "Good morning. Is Doc Eugene here? "The two women looked at each other and then looked at me. “I'm sorry, Miss. Doc Eugene left already. ”I nodded. “Ah. When will he be on duty? ”I was nervous when the woman shook her head. “He left the country. Doc Eugene is in London right now. ”W-What?My chest tightened. "W-What?"
MELISSA QUIZON"Melissa, what's happening to you." He calmly said while holding an umbrella.I sighed. "I’m done. I'm so fed up."His forehead furrowed. "What do you mean?""I'm tired of loving, Wright." I inanimately said.Please, make me numb. I can no longer take the pain.I snuggled into his warm arm. He doesn’t care if my clothes are wet. I felt his breath in my ear. "Don't say that. Please, Baby.I closed my eyes. I could no longer feel the cold caused by the rain when he hugged me."I wish I couldn't feel a damn thing." I weakly pushed him. I forced myself to look at him even though my eyes were dimming with tears. "I wish I hadn't loved you before. I wish I had just followed Grandma's advice to me. I wish I hadn't met you again. I'm such a fool.""Melissa, you're not stupid. I'm just an asshole.""I'm a fool. Because
MELISSA QUIZONTwo days after Wright and I had a conversation in front of the grave of my Grandma before he becomes so busy with his work. He always comes home at night. We also treat each other casually.We still haven't left Wright's house Because Reid, Wright and I are already fixed some of our misunderstandings so there's no need. I don't want Reid to suspect anything."Mommy, Daddy isn't here yet?" I looked at him. Reid is running down the stair while rubbing his eyes. He seemed just woken up.I stood up and lifted him. I slowly rocked him, put his head between my neck."Not yet, Baby. Go to sleep again.""I can't, Mommy. I miss Daddy's bedtime stories." He murmured."I'll just tell you a story." I sighed. "What bedtime story do you want?""It's about the King and Queen. The King left his Queen in the war so the enemy got the Queen." What the hell.
MELISSA QUIZON"Auntie! Auntie! Please lend me some lotion." Bobbie said actively. His mother left her to us that’s why she’s here at our home.I gently pulled her hand away and sat her down between my thighs. "Come here. I'll put you lotion."I rubbed the sunblock lotion in my palm and started rubbing it on Bobbie’s arm."Auntie, come swim with us. The water is cold. It's good for the skin."I bit my lower lip and stared at the blue water. That swimming pool seemed fascinating. They couldn't do as much as Reid so he enjoyed swimming in the pool here at home.Reid waved at me while hugging Wright's neck and submerged in the water.I gulped when Wright's eyes met mine, I immediately averted my gaze."Uh-"Bobbie stood up and smiled at me. "Teach me, Auntie. I'm jealous of Reid."He had already taken his pink life jacket and went down a st
MELISSA QUIZON"Mommy, I want this, and this, and this, oh and this too. Mommy, what's that? I want that." Reid jumped up and down as he held my hand and pointed to the ones he wanted to buy me."Reid, baby, calm down."He laughs. "There are lots of toys, Mommy!"I leaned down to make our faces level. "What about when Santa comes? What else will he give you, eh, you've already bought all the toys you want?”He snorted and looked up as if thinking. I don't even want to spoil Reid. He must now learn that not everything he wants, he gets."Oh, you're right, Mommy." He said while smiling. "Why didn't Daddy come to the grocery store?"I gulp. "Daddy has a job now so he didn't come."This morning, Reid and I woke up to find him gone. He just left a note on the kitchen table saying he had an early meeting in the office. He also left a black credit card for us
MELISSA QUIZON"Reid, where are you? I sewed your pants." I said as I looked for Reid in his room.I walked out of Reid's room. I heard a noise from somewhere so I followed it. The noise was coming from Wright's room. I frowned when I saw the two talking seriously. I hid by the side of the door and listened to their conversation again."But, Daddy, are you and Mommy okay? Why aren't you talking?" Reid's innocent question.Wright stopped tying his tie. "There are things you don't understand yet, son.""Daddy, are you going to spend the night at work again? We won't eat together again?" Reid's voice seemed tinged with sadness.Wright knelt in front of Reid for them to level. "I'll be home early because I'll miss you. I love you so much."Reid's face lit up and he hugged Wright's neck. I haven't heard anything from them yet. I took a deep breath and dared to knock on the door.Th
MELISSA QUIZON"Mommy. Mommy.""Hmm?" I moaned.Reid waking me up early in the morning. I buried my face on the pillow."Mommy, Daddy's not in his room," Reid said as he keeps waking me up."Maybe he gets to work, Baby," I murmured."His clothes weren't in the closet either."It was as if cold water had been poured on me. I got up and ran to where Wright's room was. I violently opened its door.I opened his cabinet one by one. There was not a single garment in it. My knees are weak. I do not know what to think."I told you, Mommy. Where did Daddy go?""I-I don't know." I'm confused to say. I forced myself to smile at my son. "Maybe your Daddy left a note downstairs."we went down holding hands. There was a fear in my heart that he might have left us.The smell of flowers greeted us as we went down. Reid and I stopped when we saw the
MELISSA QUIZONOne year later..."Reid, come back here," I called Reid when I saw him outside the resort house again."Just a second, Mom." He said while looking up. He was flying the plane that Wright had given him a long time ago.We are here at a famous resort because I have a meeting to attend. It was good and Reid was on vacation so I took him with me."Ma'am, you still have three minutes before the meeting starts." My secretary caught my attention."Thank you, Miss Clara."She left after I told her that. I went outside to Reid and leaned over to hug him."You are something. You're getting hard-headed.""Because the view here is beautiful, Mommy. It's nice to fly an aeroplane." He says while moving the controller.We have a high place and you can see the beautiful scenery of the
