Diana Rose POV - Entering inside, as I expected, the program seems to have started. Most people are already eating and chatting with others. The venue is big, and I think it can hold 500 or more guests. After all, there are two celebrations going on right now. I felt like I regretted doing the surprise. I mean, I should have told Darryl at least that I planned to surprise our parents. “Mommy, where are grandfather, grandmother, and uncle Darryl?” I looked around. Almost everyone is still wearing a mask, so I’m not even sure where my family is. “Shall we just look for them?” There were so many people that we almost had a hard time finding my parents or even Darryl because they had mingled with the guests until my parents took off their masks to give a thank-you speech. “They are my parents, your grandfather and grandmother, Miracle.” “Really? I want to hug them, mom!” “Okay. Let’s just wait for them to finish their speech, then we’ll approach them, okay?” “Yes, mom!” Mom a
Diana Rose POV - When Alex looked at Miracle, I hugged her tightly. “Thank you,” I said to him. After Darryl announced everything was fine, there was nothing to worry about, and we could continue the party, Miracle and I came out first. When we got out of Miracle, I lowered her first. “Are you okay, baby? Didn’t you hurt? Didn’t something anything wrong while Mommy wasn’t next to you?” Miracle shook her head. “No, mommy. The guy saved me earlier.” “What happened? Why did you disappear next to Mommy?” I calmly asked a question full of concern. I still can’t believe that for almost five seconds I lost sight of Miracle, and she suddenly lost my sight as my world seemed to melt. Miracle is the only reason I am still strong, and I don’t know what to do when she loses to me. “I was excited to hug Grandpa and Grandma, so I ran to them. But suddenly, many people passed by, and I didn’t know where I was.” “How did that guy see you?” “He is the only one who noticed me. I shouldn’t be
Diana Rose POV-Before going to work, I went straight to Johnny’s office to give my resignation letter.Johnny’s secretary asked me to enter his office because Johnny was expecting me.“Good morning, Diana.” His smile was wide. “What’ve you brought here this morning? Sit down first.”I sit down so we can talk well.“What do you want? Coffee? Tea? Juice? Food?”I glare at him.“Woah! Wait! The way you glare at it is like I did something to you. You’re the one who did wrong to me.”I pointed to myself. “Me? What is my fault with you?” I ask.He is the one who has done me wrong. He knew I was avoiding seeing Alex, but he didn’t tell me he was already back.“That you have a baby. You have a child. Why didn’t you say that you already have a child? If I hadn’t been to the party last night, I wouldn’t know about your child—wait—did Andrew know about your daughter?”“Ah, yeah? Andrew knows?”“What?! Wow, Diana! Do you see me as a friend? Why does Andrew know first, or do you have no intentio
Diana Rose POV - “Mommy, I’m so excited!” Miracle said cheerfully. Miracle was referring to going to my parents’ mansion. Today I don’t have any work schedule; that’s why I thought of going to the mansion to talk to my family. When Ronald stopped the car outside the mansion, he looked at Miracle and me. “Just call me and I’ll pick you up.” I would like to take Ronald to the mansion, but he says he has something important to attend to. Miracle approached Ronald, then hugged him and kissed Ronald on the cheek. “Be careful driving, Papa.” “You too, baby. Be careful while Papa is not around. Don’t be too naughty either.” Miracle cutely pouted her lips. “I’m not naughty.” “Just kidding, baby,” Ronald said, then kissed Miracle on the forehead. “I love you, baby.” “Papa, I love you too!” I can’t help but smile while looking at Ronald and Miracle. They seem like father and daughter. Words cannot describe the immense gratitude I feel towards Ronald for showering Miracle with a fath
Diana Rose POV-I was a little early for the call time on the set, so while I was waiting for the other staff to arrive, I had a video call with Miracle and Ronald.“Mommy, I’m here now in Papa’s office! I’m helping Papa with his work.”“How do you help Papa with his work?”“Here!”I stood up in shock at what Miracle showed me. It was a piece of paper printed with Miracle’s drawing.“I think Miracle will be an excellent artist someday, like her mom,” Ronald said with a smile.“Really, Papa?”“Yes, and when you become an artist, I should be in your exhibit, okay?”“Yes, papa! I will draw again!”Miracle again took a piece of paper from Ronald’s table, and then she started drawing again.“Ronald, I think those are important documents,” I worriedly said, then sat down slowly.“I can have that reprinted. What else, and I became the CEO?” Ronald said, still laughing.I don’t know how to thank Ronald more for the help he gives Miracle and me, especially the patience he shows.“Diana?”I lo
Diana Rose POV - Ronald was quick to fix the things he had to fix, especially selling his company and other properties, especially his company didn’t have any problems. By the time we left, we had no intention of coming back. Maybe we will go back for vacation so I can visit my parents, since Ronald doesn’t have any relatives and his parents died a few years ago. Ronald is taking care of our documents and if he speeds up, maybe by the next two or three days we will leave. I have sold my condo unit and the house Ronald lives in. For now, the three of us will live in a hotel. I’m nervous and I feel a little mixed with joy every time I think about Ronald and I plan to start in another country. One of my thoughts is to marry Ronald, but right now I don’t think I’m ready for that. “Is there a problem?” Miracle and I are here at my parents’ mansion, here in the garden. Miracle was playing with my parents. Since we plan to leave in just a few days, I thought of spending a whole day
Diana Rose POV - This is so unfair. Why does it seem now that I’m the bad one between Alex and me? “Diana, I will follow all your conditions. Just allow me to be with her daughter for at least one week.” This is unfair. Why does Alex cry just once in front of me and I become soft towards him? Just one of his tears seemed to make my anger towards him disappear for a moment? “Let me be Miracle’s father, please.” I felt Alex’s hug tightening around my leg while I couldn’t look at him while begging me. “Diana, don’t decide you’ll later regret.” Darryl advised in a whisper. That’s when Darryl clarified what he said to me. I looked back at Alex. “Stand there.” “Diana, please—” “I agree.” I cut him off. Fast as lightning, Darryl looked up to look at me. “I agree to let you be with Miracle, so stand up now. You irritate my ears begging.” Alex stood up and when he was about to hug me, I took his arms first. “Sorry,” Alex said in an almost low voice, like a scolded puppy. “But
Diana Rose POV-When I woke up, the first thing I felt was my heavy body. This feeling is familiar and I don’t like it.I touched my forehead but what I touched was a wet cloth and after I looked at it; it was a small white towel that was warm and wet.“Good morning, Mira–Miracle?”I got up without seeing Miracle next to me. I looked for her in the bathroom of this room, but he was not there either.“Miracle?”I felt nervous when I couldn’t even see Miracle’s shadow. It’s not Miracle’s habit to leave without me in a place she doesn’t know or not saying to me.I hope I’m wrong in thinking that Alex plans to run away and take Miracle away from me.I left the room and when I went down, I met someone. “Did you see Miracle?”“Ys, ma’am, he is with Sir Alex—”“Where are they?”“In the kitchen, ma’am.”I couldn’t thank the maid anymore, instead I ran to the kitchen.When I saw Miracle, I breathed a sigh of relief.“Miracle...”Alex and Miracle looked at me together.“Mommy!” Miracle called
