Chapter 61 – The First Time
I have not done this before, and maybe if I had done this with Albert, I wouldn't remember that timeline. Even with my ex-husbands, I didn't remember doing this, that was why Jane teased me about having reservations in my relationship. The qualms I had for myself and for them hindered me from giving my all in bed.
It was never a requirement in a relationship, right? But today, I want to give my all, my body, my soul, my heart... my everything.
"Not yet, my love," I whispered, and crawled like a tigress. Although my heart was palpitating with a mix of thrill and fear that he might not like it, I pushed his chest gently for him to lie his back on the floor.
I went on top of him.
"You are scaring me, my tigress, what do you plan to do?" He asked, smiling, but I could tell the desires in his eyes.
"I love you, Albert," I uttered as I moved my head closer to his face.
"I love you, Selene," he gasped as my hands started to feel his chest. I smiled

"Enjoying the breakfast, Albert?" teased Sienna. She giggled as she dashed to the kitchen, then opened the refrigerator to get the carton of milk.Our face flustered red. I could still feel the heat rising to my cheeks as I moved away, and he released me from his embrace.Dad put Billy quietly on his high chair, then gave him his favorite toy truck. I avoided his gaze because I already saw this forehead furrowing about what he just witnessed in our kitchen."Early riser?" He asked his eyes on Albert."We didn't have dinner last night, dad," I answered for him before he could talk. "We got hungry, so here we are," I continued, rolling my eyes, then I walked to the oven. I could smell the cheese.He raised his hands in the air as if trying to say he didn't mean anything from his question. I guess I was too guilty to react like that to him. I sometimes forget I was in a nineteen-year-old body, and not the old me.Mom was still quiet. She was lo

"Albert," I croaked as I called his name. We have to hurry to the hospital before it's too late. I didn't care about Marco, but Philip is very important to him. He already lost Charles, and losing another brother is too much.He was in shock. His lips parted as he stared blankly at the TV screen."Albert!" I shook his shoulders. This time I screamed in front of him, startling everybody.He blinked, then nodded."Ah... The car key," He said to the guy in uniform. He nodded, but Ed raised his hand, taking the key inside his pocket."I'll drive. We'll use my car," said Ed, patting him on the shoulder.He nodded, still unable to say anything."We are ready sir, where to?" Hubert, the older guy asked Ed."To the hospital," I answered. He nodded and talked to the radio. I was surprised he didn't wait for Albert's answer. Maybe he knew that at this time, he was not in his mind to make a sound decision."We'll follow you there,"
Never Again Chapter 64 – A Bitter Goodbye
Marco was crazy, making up stories to shake me. I shook my head again and smirked at him. I looked at him straight in the eye, and he met mine with a mock. I clenched my teeth and balled my fist in anger. "Listen to me carefully, Selene. You had an affair with Melvin!" He said in a mix of disappointing and angry tones. No, I wasn't.Why would I have an affair with Melvin when I was too in love with Albert? What had happened in that future? My arms went weak that I slowly released Albert, and this time stared with horror at Marco. I shook my head. It couldn't be, and sure he was lying again, this time to both of us. "It looks like the princess didn't know a thing?" He laughed as he took another cigarette. "I wonder if James was even your son, Albert?" I darted my eyes on him, mortified at that thought that James could be Melvin's son, but he clearly told me that he was the father, but was it another lie? I was hoping Albert would fill in
Never Again Chapter 65 – Life Without You
Did I have a cardiac arrest? I felt like my heart stopped pumping blood to my body that I felt an excruciating pain in my chest. I suddenly felt weak from what Marco had said. No, it can't be. It was easier to accept if Melvin had opened the door to get me back if we genuinely had an affair. My tears raced down my cheeks as I witnessed Marco slowly fading away. "No...no... no!" I cried and shook my head. "Tell us first, who opened the door? Who changed the past?" I was on my feet, ready to run. He has to live, just a little more.Then, for the last time, Marco stabbed me painfully with his words. "Your husband did. Albert opened the door. He was the one who changed everything,"I continuously shook my head in disbelief. "I'm... I'm not finished yet," I stammered as I ran towards the elevator. I had to get to the operating room. As much as I would like him to die, now was the moment that I needed him alive. In between my sobs, I pressed the
Never Again Chapter 66 – Beware of Falling Debris
"Honey, do something," I could hear Mom's voice, but I dared not to look at them. I knew they were standing on the frame of my bedroom door, but both of them hesitated to come to me. I just kept on staring at the open window while I sat on my bed, hugging my knees."What will I do? Neither Sienna nor Jane could cheer her up," answered Dad in a low voice. "I couldn't even get hold of Albert," he gritted his teeth as he mentioned his name.No matter how I explained to them that it was my decision to break up with him, dad was still mad at him. He kept on telling me he should be man enough to defend our relationship. If Dad only knew that he moved heaven and earth just for us to be together again. Was risking the lives of other people proof in defending our love?"It's been two weeks, Honey," I heard Mom sniffing.Two weeks? I have been living like a zombie for two weeks. I missed him so much. In this timeline, I have never been apart from him for a
Never Again Chapter 67 – Odds and Sods
"Hey old lady, you missed your bus."I remembered clearly the day and time I heard those words from the homeless guy whom I did not notice at first. I was thinking I was too preoccupied with many things.“You missed your chance,” He said, emphasizing something that shouldn’t have happened if I didn’t miss my ride. He told me to walk although he knew I seemed to be in a hurry but reminded me not to miss my chance again.“Be careful of falling debris,” I whispered, snapping my fingers to understand it better. I was dumbed thinking he was referring to a safety hazard caution from a construction company.“What sweetheart?” asked Dad.Both my hands were holding my head. It was like it will explode anytime now. I closed my eyes. I was so stupid not to realize it sooner. Of course, he was speaking in metaphor. I have to be on guard, be careful of people who will break us apart.&ldqu
Never Again Chapter 68 - The Visitors
Maybe a supreme being, the homeless guy, asked me a question that scared the innermost part of my heart. Whoever he was, he was pointing out to me the truth.“What.” He furrowed his forehead. “If.” He reached for my hand and squeezed it. “Selene, putting these two words together has the power to haunt you for the rest of your life. This word what if will never lead you to the right path. You are like holding onto regrets, for the time wasted.”“I love Albert so much, and I am scared that I am too late.” I massaged my temple. I felt dizzy with all his words.“There is always time, and it only ends when you give up.” He stood up.My eyes followed him as he walked back to his beloved box of cartons.“Go back home, Selene. Take time to rest today. Spend time with your family,” he said, laying his back down again, facing the sky.I stood up, but before I starte
Never Again Chapter 69 - Leaving
“Melvin,” I tried to make my voice as cheerful as possible. Deep inside me, I wanted to strangle my sister for pushing me here in the living room. I could still hear her chuckling from where I stood, and even Dad and Albert exchanged amused expressions. He stood up and found himself in an awkward situation. “I just want to drop by to say hello,” he said, giving me the bouquet. The red bunch of roses was arranged in a spiraling look, and any girl’s heart would feel giddy. “Thanks,” I said. “Please, take a seat,” I said. I sat down beside my father on a long sofa, ignoring Albert, disregarding me intentionally. I felt my blood boiling because of what he was doing. He was talking casually to my father as if nothing was happening inside the four corners of this room. “Jane said you weren’t feeling great the past few days, and I wanted to know if you’re now okay,” He continued, this time not minding the two men in the room. “I guess, yea
