FIFTY SIX
I AM SEATED next to Ashley while stroking her head. She's peacefully sleeping in our bed. I am wishing this to happen. Seeing her again in our bed while sleeping peacefully but not in this case.
"Am I a bad person, Agatha?"
"No, you're not, Asher."
"Then, why is this happening to us?"
"You're just a victim. No one is to blame but those assholes who did to your wife."
"I let her suffer, I punished her. Physical and emotional. I punished her for the sin that I thought she had committed. After all these years, she is also just a victim." I hold her hand. I kiss her from crying. "I'm sorry. I don't know what happened, please, forgive me."
The trials she went through, she lost her father because of what happened to her, their family business went bankrupt because it was neglected, I hurt her who should have been with her. I was not beside her during her painful battle. I wasn't there to sympathize with her. She fought alone. And she even lo

I AM PREPARING Ashley’s meal when I heard the news on TV. There was a flash report appearing on the screen. I don't care about these kinds of news but there seems to be something that motivated me to watch it."Mark Polio or better known as Kranky entered the house of Paula Collins. The maid said that he introduced himself as Paula Collins' boyfriend." Kranky? That’s the name that Ashley called me which is she's afraid of. Paula, have they known each other?Suddenly my heart beat faster and I immediately approached the TV then turned up the volume and sat on the sofa for a while."The maid said the two argued. The maid allegedly heard Kranky say her son was dead to the woman he raped that Paula had ordered him to, more than two years ago." I suddenly let go of the mug I was holding and I didn't even know it was broken.What does that mean?"Kranky said he no longer face to face his son that he called Charles."Charles, is he, are the

I look at Ashley and Agatha. They are in the garden while Agatha combs Ashley's hair. I am here in my library and I just peeked at them from here in my window. I smile seeing them both talking. Agatha smiled at me then pointed at me. Ashley looked up and Agatha whispered something then raised her hand.I see Ashley smiling while waving at me. She also gave me a flying kiss so I smiled. Her doing good. Day by day there is improvement in her.I heard my phone ring so I grabbed it from my pocket. A police friend who was in charge of Paula's case and that Kranky."Yes, bro?"“Bad news,” I arc my brow on what he said."What do you mean?""Paula Collins is free," I stand straight because of what he said."What the fuck, how did it happen?"“His lawyer filed a bill and appealed that what happened there is self-defense. Well, it’s clearly self-defense because it’s happening inside her home. That Polio did

“Good afternoon, doc,” The reception nurse greeted me."Give me Paula Collins record." She immediately handed me Paula's record so I check it.I looked at the medications prescribed to Paula one by one and then returned it to the nurse."Thanks,""Welcome, doc"I am disappointed after seeing Paula’s record. I can't find anything that can be used on her. Most of them are multivitamins and some medicine that are harmless to pregnant.God forbid me, but I hope the child does not survive after what happened.‘I’m sorry baby, but I can’t claim you after I know everything.’I clenched my fist while standing in the hallway and thinking of a way how I can remove Paula on my way. Maybe she's right, I am guilty right now because of what happened to Ashley. But I am more guilty thinking about why I involved myself unto her. If I know that she is the reason for this, at that time, I will surel

"Where the hell is my sister?" Hunter gritted his teeth asking each one of us."Hunter, calm down, everyone is trying to find her," Hailey tried to let Hunter calm down.“How can I fucking calm down if my sister is missing and she’s not on her own. You hide this from me, Ley. You didn’t tell me what’s really happened to her.”"Ok, I have a mistake. I hid everything from you. But I didn’t want what was happening now. I am sorry, ok. ” Hunter calmed down then approached Ley and hugged her. “I understand her decision that is why I tolerated her. My mistake, I apologized,”“I didn’t mean to get angry with you. I’m so worried about my sister. I'm sorry.” Hunter hugs her tight and kisses her forehead.“Can we file a report now, that she’s missing?” Agatha ask."I call my friend, they will help us to find Ashley," I replied. “Hunter, I am sorry abo

"Hello," she greeted me. In her face, it seems that she does not bother in my presence."Do you know me?" she nodded in response."The one that looks like my husband with the same name." I smiled at what she said."Can I seat?" I pointed next to her. She nods as an answer."Why are you crying? I won't say 'no', go ahead, sit down,” she said and I sat beside her."Why did you leave?" I asked and held her hands."I was sad and I thought of Charles.""You should be told me so I can bring you here."“I am afraid you will tell Asher about him. He doesn't know about Charles and I don't want him to know.” I sighed while caressing the hand."Why, would he be angry?"“No, but I don't want to hurt him. Charles was formed in a bad situation and when Asher found out, he would be hurt.”She protected my feelings. Even though she is not on her own she is still thinking of me."I am so

"I have good news for you." I am looking at Ley while waiting for her to continue."Spill it,""It's time to return the favor," she replied."What do you mean?" I ask and look at her and Eugene. He laid the papers in front of me."What is this?""Open it." I took the paper and was surprised at what I saw. "Paula has illegal business accumulated by that asshole Kranky," she said.“And oh, another witness said that they had a relationship,” Eugene added.“Wait, are you saying that Paula cheated on me?”"And you are not the father of her baby." I furrowed my forehead because of what Ley said. It doesn't sink into my mind what she said."Wait, wait, wait,""Don't be confused, Asher," Ley handed me the paternity test. “That's what people with money and with a lot of connections can do. 9 weeks before you can get a paternity test on a pregnant woman, and since Paula’s baby is 12 weeks

Hailey is still sleeping. Agatha and Eugene have also left because Ashley and Ley's children need to be together since Hera and William left. Hunter just stared at Hailey as he caressed his wife's face.“One thing I regret is that I believed Kyla back then. I know the first time I saw Ley she is special and I admit that I like her. But I was blinded by Kyla's sweet lies and chose to believe her rather than look at Ley's goodness.” Then he looked at me. "And the same shit repeated to my sister.""I'm sorry if I didn't protect her," I apologized."I want to be angry with you, but I can't because like me we are both blinded by lies so we hurt our loved ones," he said then stroked Ley's face again. “We have to be thankful, despite what happens and what we did, they still chose us. They still love us, and they chose to come back with us. Because they still love us.”I looked up to hold back my tears. I also saw him do that."I lo

Ashley is in the garden as she sits on the grass and is combed by the maid. I approached them and motioned the maid to leave."How are you?" She gives me a simple smile then looks away. I sat beside her then fixed her hair. "Do you want to eat?" She shook her head.“I want someone to talk to.”"I see, I am willing to listen," I said then stroked her hair. "Spill it.""I love someone and his name is Asher," she used to say this to me every day. But I still couldn’t help but be sad and at the same time, I am happy. Even though she doesn’t recognize me she still thinks of me."He loves me and I love him too. But I left him because I don't want to hurt him. You, do you love someone?" Then she faced me with a smile so I nodded."Yes, her name is Ashley and I love her so much." She smiled then touched my cheek."Same my name the one you love. You look like the one I love.
