Angela's POV "Yey! Let's go swimming!" Maymay shouted excitedly here inside the car. I just smiled at the thought that my siblings are happy right now. I turned my gaze to the backseat just to see my sister who was now cuddling with his older brother Kokoy and her Auntie Bel. Maymay took a glance in my direction after she felt I was watching them. She gave me a sweet smile. You could see her innocence and the joy she felt through her eyes. I just nodded at her and smiled back as a response then I shifted my gaze to the man next to me who was just silently driving. I was happy today because he did it to us. I thought he had forgotten what he promised to the children because he hadn't visited us for a few days in our house. But here he is. He picked us up at home together with Bel to fulfill what he promised to my siblings. 'When he promises something, it will come true.' The trip also took more than half an hour before reaching Clark's house which was really big and indeed beauti
Angela’s POV"Do you have anything left?" I asked my siblings who were now fixing their things."Yes, sister!" Maymay responded enthusiastically while clutching her bag on her shoulder. Kokoy, on the other hand, was already done fixing his things."Angela, water?" Bel offered to me which surprised me by her sudden appearance behind me. Looked like she had fixed her things.I nodded to her in response and accepted the glass of water she was offering."Thank you.""Where's Clark?" she asked out of curiosity.I gulped the water inside of my mouth first and handed the glass back to her afterward."He's in his room. Changing his clothes," I answered and sat down on the nearby sofa. Bel quickly followed me and gently put down the glass on the glass table."The kids are having fun here," she suddenly spoke into the air. I looked in her direction and I saw she was smiling as she looked at my siblings who still haven't stopped running here inside Clark's house. Clark's house is spacious so Kok
"Clark, it's okay. I'll take care of it.""Nah! I'm okay, don't mind me. I just want to help you," he protested and smiled tiredly.I took a deep breath at this awkwardness. I had been telling him lately to just sit there on the chair but he didn't want to follow me. Instead, he continued to help me do the laundry; the neighbor's laundry that I accepted to be precise.For more than half an hour he was still fetching water in the well. He was fetching while I was rinsing the clothes. His sweat was dripping from his forehead down to his neck. We were under the heat of the afternoon sun."Clark, sit down under the tree. The sunlight might burn your skin. It's okay to not help—" He cut me off from what I was going to say."Angela..." he uttered weakly. He stopped pumping the well and looked straight into my eyes."I want to help you so please, just let me. All you can do is do your business then, I will do mine. Okay? To make it easier as well. We still have a lot of work to do and we hav
"Are you happy with our date today?" the man who was walking beside me asked. We walked towards my house."Yes. I'm so happy," I whispered, enough for him to hear it. I tightened my hug to the teddy bear that he gave to me earlier. This was the prize he won at the amusement park."I'm happy to hear that."We both stopped walking when we were in front of the door. We looked and stared into each other's eyes.I could see in his eyes that he enjoyed the day with me. I smiled."I'll go inside," I bid goodbye and pointed to the door. He nodded as he stared at me."Be careful when driving," I reminded him. I approached the doorknob and turned it. I was about to open the door when Clark suddenly grabbed my arm. I was startled and I looked at his face."Angela, wait,” he stopped me. I released my grip on the doorknob."Do you forget something—" I was cut off on what I was supposed to say when he grabbed my both shoulders and pulled me closer to him. He bowed his head slightly then reached my
"Do y-you like it? Huh?" my client tonight asked while thrusting rapidly his manhood in mine. I shut my eyes in pain and disgusted while silently crying."Fuck! Ahh!"After a second, he already had his release. He pulled away behind me and lay down on the bed to rest next to me. I immediately turned my back in his direction and curled up as I hugged my naked body.For how long, Angela? You need to leave this world for Clark, to your relationship with him.I felt the man next to me move and leave the bed. I just heard the sound of his zipper and the buckle of his belt."You taste so good, Magda. You are still sexy and hot. I am going back to the entertainment club again," he said in a malicious voice that brought me into tears. I just heard the door open and close, it looked like he already left the VIP room."I can get out of here. I'll get out of this club soon," I promised myself and wiped away my tears. I got up from the bed to clean my body and get dressed.* * * *"Clark, how much
"It's all coming from Clark?""Yes, Bel. He gave me a gift." I was referring to the floral dress I'm wearing right now."And those shoes…" I pointed at the shoe rack on the side; near the door."That's for Kokoy, then Maymay received a doll from Clark. Well, Maymay is already playing it right now in the neighborhood with her friends," I told Bel.We were here in the living room, having small talk. I already finished doing the laundry, the ones I received from the neighbors. I already received the rent for the laundry as well.It had been more than a week since Clark visited here. It was the day he gave us a gift. I communicated with him using my keypad cellphone. He told me he has been busy for a week so he doesn't have any free time to visit us. He has a lot to do in their company. Since there was nothing I could do to help him with the problem he was facing right now, I could only give him text messages, reminding him to eat at the right time and take a rest. I also thought of cookin
"What's up? Are you already finished?" Bel asked. I shifted my gaze to her and I saw her peeking at the door."Almost, Bel. I'll comb my hair then I'm done," I replied and returned my gaze to the mirror. I reached for the hair comb placed on top of the bedside table."All right. I already fixed Clark's food for his lunch. It's in the tupperware," Bel added, which made me smile. I turned my gaze back to her."Thank you very much, Bel."She just nodded at me before she closed the door. I went back to comb my hair. When I was done, I smiled and then left the room. I went straight to the kitchen and I found Bel leaning against the wall with her arms crossed. She seemed bored based on the expression I could see on her face."Am I taking too long?" I jokingly said. She shifted her gaze from the floor in my direction. She stepped forward away from leaning against the wall and seemed dumbfounded while eyeing me from head to toe."Angela... You look stunning," she commented breathlessly. I coul
"About what you heard earlier is all about...a family dinner date that my mother set up for us. But don't you worry, I don't have a plan to show up later on that date," he explained. He reached for my right hand and squeezed it gently. I couldn't look him in the eyes. I just bowed my head and looked at the food that Bel and I had cooked for him.It wasn't about the dinner date that was the main reason why I suddenly acted differently. I wanted another explanation."The w-wedding? What about the wedding?" I asked in a cracked voice and stared at him. I could see that he was stunned in his seat for a second and swallowed hard. He didn't immediately utter a word which made tears fall from my eyes. I looked away at him and cried. I immediately wiped away the tears that look like a running faucet that keeps on dripping."Angela..." he whispered in a worried tone. He got up from his seat and approached my direction. He knelt in front of me and looked at my face which was now blurred by the t
