Miguel's P.O.V
"I'm going to resign," I said as soon as I entered Daddy's office.When I arrived here in Manila, I immediately went to Daddy's office. I feel so much anger, but I have to respect him because he is still my father. I'm studying, and I know Mama won't like it if I don't respect Daddy.
When I saw his face and everything that was said flashed back to me, he did what he cursed. My ears were hot as if I wanted to slap him, but I couldn't. I'm still holding myself back."Where did you come from?" he asked me without even understanding what I was saying.I didn't answer him and just turned my back. Whether or not he accepts my resignation letter is still meaningless. I decided to leave and not see him.I looked at him because he threw a stone at the door I was about to touch. I didn't speak, so I stayed silent."What's up?" I asked the person I ordered to look after Mama.If you ask me, Mama doesn't want to hide. I want her to enjoy her life without me or anyone else burdening her. The case is that they themselves do not want to leave the farm; he himself wants to live there."They all left the farm," said the man I was talking to.I wondered where they were planning to go."Follow them," I just said and hung up.I am here now in the house I built. It's simple for me and Mama; it's not named after me because I know if it's possible for Daddy to chase it.If he's smart, I'm smarter."Cedric, where have you been?" was my line in a text message I sent.Cedric Aquino was my only friend in college. Cedric is kind and doesn't care about your social status in life. When he wants to be friends with you, We are both like that. Cedric is rich, unlike others who don't want to be friends with me because I don't have money. We haven'
I woke up early, probably because of the new place we were sleeping.I'm here now at the condo, and after almost a month of living at the farm, my body has changed. We got used to the natural cold that comes from around the mountain. I immediately got up and opened the windows. From this window, I can see the buildings and the cars on the road.Ever since we saw the men hanging around the farm, we have been doubly careful.Sometimes Ken and Raven come down the mountain for what we need and our business. Ken also always has to report to the office because Dad gave him a position there. While Raven is taking care of our business, He also brings the papers that need my signature.Dyson and I once. The four of us talk while watching Mom. We were doubly careful because we didn't want to lose another loved one. My son's sacrifice is right.Since Miguel left, no one has contacted him. Even his mother, whom he was not able to cont
"Miguel!"I heard someone enter the VIP room while I was taking something from under the table. I dropped the glass that was on the table."Ma'am, he said he didn't request a VIP room. He also said he wouldn't go if he didn't know the person coming," said the waiter I ordered earlier.My eyes rolled because he was still squinting. Whereas before, he only allowed anyone to enter the VIP room, even if they were strangers."Tell me the bar owner is calling him!?!" I said angrily to the water.He immediately followed further away. I can see them from this room. I watched how he talked. He's really grateful to be with him.I was bored, so I just fell on the sofa again. After a while, the door opened. I was hoping it was him, but it wasn't."Ma'am, his girlfriend doesn't want to let him," the waiter said."He's going to let his girlfriend in here. if they want to be together. I just need to talk to Miguel!?" I was shocked.I d
"Mom, hurry up there or we'll be late for our meeting." I told Mama that now I'm not sure what to wear.We are going to be where Miguel is now. Miguel hasn't told me yet what this meeting will cost him. I also don't know what his reason is, and he doesn't want to see his own mother, but I don't care anymore. Right now, Mama needs a reason to fight and encourage her in her upcoming surgery."Let's go!" Mama pulled me out of the condo.We got to the meeting place quickly, but Miguel wasn't there yet, so we just ordered. That's why Mom was so confused because she thought the person we were meeting with was going to buy her farm in the mountains. He wants to sell it and put the money in the bank because he can't handle it anymore.So I overthink even more that maybe Mama is preparing for what she will leave for Miguel. I feel like he's giving up, and that's what I can't handle. Just thinking about it
Aira's P.O.V.It's been three weeks since Mom's surgery, and Miguel took her. After Miguel said that if something bad happens to Mom, I will be responsible, we didn't talk about anything else. Dyson and Ken didn't respond to Miguel's threat because if they were in Miguel's position, he would have said the same thing."Your dad is sending you home, isn't he?" Raven said from behind me.Dad and I have been seeing each other since what happened at the hospital. Dad didn't say why he was there, but Ken and Dyson found out. It was not difficult for them to find out. I didn't think that, apart from Mom, Miguel's mother, my father was also sick. The doctor also said that Daddy only had five months to live, so we didn't wonder why he was sending me home to the mansion."I'm ashamed!" I said hesitantly while packing some clothes to take with me."What's so em
"Really? Are you sure it's him?!" Raven asked me in shock. He is here in the garden of the mansion with me. Daddy, Ken, Meriam, and sister May left together for the office. While sister Shane and brother Jan were only in the room and did not go out, Mommy also left after Daddy. So I was alone here in the mansion and sent Raven over. "Yes. I tried to chase him, but I couldn't catch him outside the gate. I tried to take a look at the CCTV, but he wasn't caught, even if it was a little bit. I really feel like it's him and no one else," I answered Raven. "Look at the letter!" Raven said, taking the letter that was given to me. "Hi, how are you? I know you already know the truth. Thank you for understanding. Thank you for being strong enough to face this. I'm sorry if I don't have the courage to face you. I love you! Take care always, and always take care of yourself." Raven read the letter. "Actually, if I were the one who read it, I would think it came from my mom," he added. I fee
"He confessed to you?" Raven greeted me as she entered my room.Here in the mansion, nothing else seems to have happened. It's like we're all back to where we were before. Dad has not yet announced his situation. I don't even know if Mommy knows that."Yes." My answer is simple."What are you doing, girl? Why are you so lethargic? Don't you love him anymore?" he asked me again."I don't know. I don't know." My response was simple."Indeed. With the amount of things that have happened, in some cases you may have given what you have given and you may have been exhausted and could not feel the sincerity of what he was saying. Anyway, how is Aunt? Infairness huh, her hard work to take care of her mother. I really thought she would let him tell you Aunt even though he already knew she underwent an operation." Raven spoke at length."Mom said it's fine. Sometimes she looks for me because she can't come near me because she's shy. I plan to visit her sometime. Tell Dyson, let's go there toget
"Moooom!" "Aunt!" We shouted at the same time when we got to Miguel's house. All I know is that he is not here now because he is working with Daddy. Daddy is also kind enough to accept Migeul, even though his father is his opponent in business. "Children!" Mom also greeted us. He happily hugged us one by one, and we did the same to him. My heart is so happy to see that he is feeling lighter now, unlike before, when even when he smiles, he still misses his only child. "Come! I prepared a lot for your arrival." Mom welcomed us to their dining table full of food. "Wow! Your aunt prepared all this? Is it all for us?" Dyson asked happily. "Your hand!" Raven was next to Ken, who was about to take something to eat out of his mouth. We laughed at Ken's reaction that you thought he was a kid robbed of a lollipop. "Mom, aren't you tired? You cooked too much. We're the only ones to eat. We should just order," I said to Mom. "I miss cooking for you. Miguel also helped me so I wasn't too
