047 | Love Is Sacrifice
Diane’s P.O.V.
“For you. I’m sorry for being a jerk and if I acted that way. Do you want anything else aside from the flowers, Diane? Just tell me, and I’ll buy it now. I can give everything you want,” Leandro offered, but I didn’t reply.
His face was so close to me that I could tell right away that he came here after drowning himself in liquor. He reeked of alcohol, and his breath was too stinky that I wanted to throw up everything I ate earlier.
He placed the bouquet beside me, knelt in front of me, and held my hands tightly. I was quite shocked because even though Leandro was obsessed, greedy, and egotistic, he doesn’t deserve to kneel in front of me. Actually, no one deserved to kneel in front of anybody.
Leandro was the type of guy who would never take the blame and would never allow someone to block his way. He would never say sorry bec

Diane’s P.O.V.It was a good thing that he was starting to realize what I truly wanted. Because of that, my hopes soared up high. As fast as the speed of light, I nodded while looking straight at Leandro’s eyes.“Okay. If that’s what you want, then don’t cry anymore. I’m sorry for doing this to you, Diane. I’m sorry for always forcing you and for not winning your heart the proper way. I had my chance, but I wasted it,” Leandro said out of regrets.“Now, I will be sacrificing for the sake of your happiness. This way, at least I will be able to show that my love for you is real. I want you to know that I still love you, and if ever you’ll change your mind, I’m still here. I will be waiting for you until the end.”After that, Leandro did not utter a word. It was as if he already had enough agony, which led him to fi
Sins of The Past 049 | Feeling Invincible
Diane’s P.O.V.Liam drove me to Quego del Mar Public University after lunch. Our parking lot was a huge and ceiled quadrangle with benches and food vending machines. Our university was public, yet, aside from the swimming pool, it was also the main feature that we were surely proud of.After Liam parked at the corner, everyone who used to hang around in the parking lot just stopped doing their businesses and stared at his white Lexus car. Curiosity was screaming on their faces, and I ended up rolling my eyes in an instant.If only they knew how Liam used to change his car as often as he changed his clothes, they would be amazed even more. With different brands and latest models, no one could beat him with his car collection.“So, you are studying here…” Liam commented.“Hmm, yes. Why?” I asked him.“
Sins of The Past 050 | Diane's Best Friends
Diane’s P.O.V.That voice was owned by my blunt yet cheerful best friend, Karen, whose real name was Cannery Jane Samaniego. Now I realized that she actually made a single thump of her hands in the air before yelling those words.Karen twitched the corner of her lips upwards while sarcastically waving at people. Then, she flipped her straight and long hair before she burst into wild laughter as she approached me wearing her red pair of high-heeled boots. She was always doing a catwalk, getting everyone’s attention like she was on a fashion show, with Lorenz by her side.On the other hand, Lorenz Villadares was our gay best friend and groupmate in almost every project, who had a small mole under his right eye. He was holding a folder that might contain our final thesis file. He was undoubtedly rich, who was the sole heir of their business empire, but I wasn’t sure what he really wanted t
Sins of The Past 051 | Circulated Rumor
Diane’s P.O.V.Until the three of us had finally reached and entered our classroom located on the first floor, I intentionally sealed my lips to their questions, and the two of them did not easily let go of me too. Perfect best friends’ roles!We moved our chairs to form a circle for us to discuss our thesis, so we were now facing each other alongside the whiteboard in front. But by how these two were looking at me, it was too obvious that we would not talk about our thesis.“Hey, bitch! I’m just reminding you that you might have a story to tell, so any plans of disclosing it to us? My manicure would soon fade away, and here you are, still as tight-lipped as ever about Liam Evangelista! Stop acting like a teenager, my God!” A bit of annoyance was present to Lorenz’s tone because I was hanging them—silently mocking them for not talking so soon about my Liam.
Sins of The Past 052 | Emotional Burden
Diane’s P.O.V.After what I heard from Lorenz, I could no longer concentrate in our afternoon class.No matter what I did, it felt like my mind was floating and fluctuating even though it was my favorite subject the professor was discussing—Strategic Management. My mind abruptly went somewhere, and throughout the class, I was absent-minded.Since then, I repeatedly asked myself if I made the right decision of answering Liam immediately despite the fact that I didn’t know him completely. Or was it right to follow my instinct just because we had this strong attraction towards each other, and it was already enough reason for me not to know him further?In just a blink of an eye, I got filled with mixed doubt, confusion, disappointment, and sorrow. In just a snap of a finger, I found myself struggling in between love and hurt.After class, we went t
Sins of The Past 053 | Being Dragged Down
Diane’s P.O.V.To give what I asked for, Liam took me to his condo. It was located at one of the famous condotels in Quego del Mar—The LC Towers. The luxurious place was composed of three sky-rocketing towers, all reaching up to fifty floors. His unit was situated on the twelfth floor of LC1 Tower.A sudden nervousness crept me up, and a nameless dread streamed throughout my blood when we were in front of his unit. I couldn’t help but gulp when Karen and I’s conversation replayed through my mind. It was a simple talk about not being completely alone with a man in a private place for us to stay virgins, or else something would surely happen.Relax, Diane! You have to fully trust him, that’s why you wanted to talk to him. This is for you to end all of your emotional baggage and unnecessary overthinking.Being at the place where he lives
Sins of The Past 054 | Liam's Stained Past
Diane’s P.O.V.Not everyone had the courage to tell the truth, most especially if they wanted to forget everything about that rumor. But Liam was different—he was willing to tell me everything. All I had to do was prepare myself and listen to him intently.For that, I cupped his face, softly gave him a peck on his lips as I interlaced my fingers with his. “I promise,” I guaranteed. This was what I wanted. Whatever it was, I would forgive him with all my heart, as long as he would be all honest to me.He drank from his iced tea, and I did the same thing from my glass before we faced each other again on the long couch. I focused on listening to him as soon as he opened his mouth.“It was a long story, Diane. But to cut it short, I was celebrating my twenty-third birthday three years ago. Since my friends were bullying me for still being a virgin at that ti
Sins of The Past 055 | Impulsive Decision
Diane’s P.O.V.I merely wished to look at his face and see the delight in his reaction while kissing me, but I ended up closing my eyes and tasting the warmth of his lips. His every move looked so promising—getting me to dive into the world of absolute yearning.Damn, I love this man! I really do.As if it was already a natural urge to return his kisses, I drifted back to whatever I felt for him. The fact that Liam honestly told me everything, it was as if we surpassed the first challenge in our relationship. It was weird, but I trusted him even more—to the point that I would be ready for whatever might happen between the two of us today.He mattered to me the most, so I didn’t care anymore about what happened in the past. It already happened, and whatever I do, I could no longer change it. Past is past. It was already a history, and we were not livin
