VALENTINE'S DAY A promise is a promise
Valentina’s P.O.V I woke up to the birds chirping against the window sill, and I felt a sharp pain in my stomach and my head, it was blinding, so much so that I felt paralyzed where I lay. My phone was ringing, I only heard it now, sluggishly, I reached for it. “Valentina, for the love of God, you had me worried.” Melissa sounded over the edge and a small smile reached my lips, I forgot to call her when I got home last night. “Are you all, right? Where are you?” “I-I just woke up,” my voice cracked as I spoke and I cleared my throat before she could notice something. Even though Melissa was my friend I didn’t want her to know that Ron still hits me; she would get even more worried than she usually gets. “Forgive me, I forgot to call you last night.”“What did Ethan do?” She asked in a hurry. “I swear to God if he touched you in any way.” I chuckled softly, at least this was a better way to start my day. “No, he did not,” I answered as I forced myself up the bed, clutching my head
VALENTINE'S DAY You are hurt
Ethan’s P.O.V It was getting late, and I was starting to lose hope in Valentina, maybe she wouldn’t come like she promised, it’s not like I can blame her if she doesn’t. A small sigh of disappointment escaped my lips, if only my legs are not so swollen, I would have gone to look for her myself. I’m not even advised to walk short distances, that’s why they had given me the small wheelchair in the corner of the room in case I wanted to go outside. It would be a miracle if Valentina came here, but I wished she did because I missed her. I was feeling a little bit lonely, Junis went home to change his clothes, the old man had been here for six days without a break. I told him I could somehow manage the night on my own and if there was an emergency, I would reach out to him. I only did that because I hoped Valentina would come, I wanted to have some alone time with her, something equivalent to a date. Since I hadn’t gotten the opportunity to talk to her since I miraculous time t
VALENTINE'S DAY Delicious Food
Valentina’s P.O.V Maybe it was because I had left my wounds unattended to, but they sting like a bitch now, so much that walking is a problem for me and I don’t even want to talk about how hungry I am at the moment. I watched the doctor as they examined the wounds on my stomach and my back, since I suffered the most there. He touched the small swell that started to form in my wrist and I shifted back in reflex, his eyes narrowed as he sat down holding a small report sheet. “Do you have any sort of pain in your head?” He asked curiously, I wonder if he was referring to the terrible headache that was in front of my forehead. “Yes, I have a slight headache.” I answered almost immediately, I could easily respond to the doctor since Ethan wasn’t here. But wait, there seemed to be something wrong with Ethan, but I just couldn’t explain it. He seemed like a totally different person, and his eyes don’t hold the usual hate they did for me, it was as though he was looking at me. “Were yo
VALENTINE'S DAY A vulnerable Foe
Valentina’s P.O.V “Is it possible to have dementia at the age of twenty-one?” I typed into my internet search engine, biting my nails nervously as I watched the page load. “Yes, it is, even though age is a great factor, it’s not limited to older people.” The search engine answered and my eyebrows furrowed together, so it was kind of possible Ethan has dementia, but if he does, they should have noticed it in the hospital. Apart from the fact that he was acting strange towards me, he seemed to recall every other person fine. If it isn’t dementia, then what is it? I thought to myself, then I typed into the phone. “Does high fever aid memory loss?” He had been acting strange since the day he came looking for me in his pajamas, and he had a very high fever that day. “Please be more precise about your question.” The engine replied, it always does this when it has no definite answer for my questions but then it gathered tons of articles that are related to memory loss and mental healt
VALENTINE'S DAY Object of Entertainment
Valentina’s P.O.VI picked my hair up in a ponytail as I prepared myself for school, Ethan was discharged on Friday, and I heard from Lucille and the rest of the classmates. I didn’t go visit him after the last time, he didn’t give me any answer to my question.Even though he seemed harmless, I doubted him, and I doubted him a lot.It’s impossible for someone to just change in an instant, so I want to tread carefully.“Give me some money.” I heard Norah’s voice as soon as I got out of my room, there was a small glare on her face. “I need to buy drinks for the girls today.”“You’re fifteen years old, Norah, you shouldn’t be drinking.” I scolded, as the eldest daughter, even though I wasn’t considered a member of the family, Norah is my little sister and I care for her. “I won’t give you money if you’re going to drink.”“It’s not your business what I do with the money.” She snarled and just then my brother, and Norah’s twin, Nathan came downstairs. His brown eyes access the place and th
VALENTINE'S DAY Let's get lunch
Valentina’s P.O.V I’m glad I was able to get out of that one without getting hurt, classes went on smoothly, and we even had a test, one that I was pretty sure that I aced. I picked the apple I had bought on my way to school and ate it, just as soon as I bit in, my eyes turned in the direction of Ethan and he was staring at me. What is wrong with this dude? I shook my head as I continued my snack, my phone beeped loudly informing me that I had an incoming message. “Are you avoiding me?” I read and the message was from Ethan, I rolled my eyes as I wondered if I should type back or I should just ignore him.“No, I’m not,” I replied, almost instantly, and he sent me another text. “Good.” With a smiling emoticon behind it. “Meet me at the back when it’s closing.” I stared hard at the text and then turned in his direction, I was immediately reminded that I couldn’t look in his direction too much because Lucille had her eyes on me. “Why?” “You will find out when you come.” “Are you
VALENTINE'S DAY A second chance at siblings
Nathan’s P.O.V“We should have collected more, I told you that girl has so much money, I wonder how she got it.” I rolled my eyes even as Norah complained, she had been complaining as we went to school and we were closed from school, and she was still complaining. Valentina might not say it but she cares so much about us and even though the family is like that and Norah keeps on stealing her money she has never taken anything to heart.So I feel Norah could cut Valentina some slacks.“That stingy bitch, she isn’t even grateful that our father lets her stay in our house for free.” She complained bitterly as we headed inside the city center, probably to spend some good time before we decided to go home. “What could we possibly get with this?”“Norah…” I called my twin softly, I wasn’t very angry at her, because I knew her reasoning wasn’t her fault, and up until some weeks back, I thought the same way, if I was going to blame anyone, I was going to blame our parents. “Do you have any
VALENTINE'S DAY Garbage daughter
Nathan’s P.O.V Valentina’s face flushed red at the accusation; she took a few steps away from the gentle man in surprise. “N-Nathan? Why would you say something-g like that?” She stuttered as she spoke, I could tell she didn’t know how to talk to me, she was a bit hesitant, I understood why she did.It was still much of a surprise that I was talking to her and acting like normal, I turned towards the boy that was standing closer to her…Ethan… now I remember his name. He introduced himself as Ethan Lords, and I did a lot of searches about him since the time he turned up on our porch but I remember clearly the name of his father, because he was a fucking billionaire.Ethan glared down at us, since he was much taller, I could tell he wasn’t pleased to see us and I wonder why. “Are you my sister’s boyfriend?” I decided to ask, since Valentina wasn’t going to answer me, I needed something to ease the tension and make us have a natural conversation and if it was possible, this was the o
