[GILLIAN WALTON] I am unsure if I'm ready to meet her Dad, but how can I let her down, especially if it will make her happy? I am now waiting for Gwen, all dressed up but didn't seem alright. This weird feeling held me back, but I couldn't figure it out. I should be delighted by her desire to formally introduce me to her father, which I had never encountered with Anika. Yes, Tita Anastasia knows me as her girlfriend but only that. We didn't really have a formal introduction. Despite Gwen's good intentions and gestures, I could not help but worry about meeting her Dad. I have a bad feeling about it. Pacing nonstop, I could not calm my whole being. What if He doesn't like me for Gwen? What if it didn't go well? A few moments later, a doorbell stopped me. I swallowed and walked to the door to open for Gwen. I know it's her. "Hi, Mi Amor. Are you ready? Let's go?" She was smiling. I also tried to smile and calm down. "Are you okay?!" She asked as we walked down the hallway to the e
[GILLIAN WALTON] "Hey! Mia... Are you alright? You seem quiet since we left the Mansion. Did something happen?!" I asked her. I couldn't just keep my silence, feeling something was wrong. She briefly looks at me, then take her eyes off me immediately. I looked at the road as I couldn't get an answer from Gwen. I just let my mind go, thinking that maybe she didn't want to talk and wanted to keep off the record. Then I'll listen when she's ready. When we got to my condo, Gwen was still speechless. "Hmm, thanks for the night. Would you like to come in?" She didn't say a word and hugged me gently. It strongly indicates that she is not okay. I have a strong hunch that it has something to do with her Dad. "Just promise me one thing.." her voice has a trace of sadness, and her eyes are lethargic. I frowned as I looked directly at her. "You can tell me what's bothering you, Gwen. I'm your girlfriend, right?" when I said it, she suddenly looked away, headed. I saw her hand rubbing her
[NARRATOR]Gwen stayed with Gillian after work. The moment they settled on the couch, Gwen's heartbeat rose. "Gillian, what am I about to say? Please try to calm down, okay.." Gwen tried to warn her first. "Your sister... Do you know what happened to her?" "How did you know I have a sister? I had a sister.." Gwen's face turned blue, collecting all the courage she could before speaking again. "She died when I was just three.. What about her, Gwen? To whom you knew about her? I never spoke to anyone about her except...." "To Anika?" Gillian swiftly nodded. When Gwen was supposed to open her mouth again, Gillian's phone rang. Her face got confused as the call was not registered, but then she answered it to figure out who is it. "Gillian? My beloved daughter?" "Dad?!" Gillian murmured in surprise, standing too distant, talking to her Dad. Gwen's lips smirk, having her heart discomforted. "Gillian, my princess.. Listen to me. I know we made a mistake, disowning you for being diff
# # # "Rise and shine.." Gillian uttered, mocking as Gwen opened her eyes barely. "What are you doing here, Gillian?! And how... how did I end up home?" Gwen talks with her messy hair and wasted look. "So, nothing you remember at all. Now that you are awake and sober, let me know what's happening with you. Because if not, I'm gonna lose my mind, Gwen.." "There is none. Gillian. Don't exaggerate things, please. I just had a drink with my best friend.." "A drink? Huh?! Just a drink that makes you forget everything. This isn't you, Gwen. Please don't hide whatever is there distressing you so much. Just tell me right away. I'm begging you! I am not myself the whole night, so please clear the air. You are driving me up the wall....." "This isn't me?! What a word. Perhaps it is the real me, Gillian." Emphasizing her words. "What?! And what do you mean by that?!" "You heard it straight. Perhaps I was now out of my little dream, Gillian. This is the reality now. I'm so sorry, but th
With the two's sudden separation, Gwen stops living everyday life. She stayed in her condo. She doesn't like eating or going out. She doesn't want to see anyone, isolating herself. Her absence got her father's attention, got worried, coming all the way to visit her daughter personally. A continuous knock on the door didn't bother Gwen at all. She seems already dead, even if she is still breathing. "Gwen! Open the door.. Let's talk and fix this, please. I won't go anywhere unless we talk.. My sweet pie... speak to your father, please. I can't afford to lose another child.." "Just leave me alone! Get away! You already got what you want, so go!" Gwen shouted, sobbing so hard that feels like an empty can. On the other hand, Gillian met her parents and got reconciled. Despite her situation, hope remained in her, wanting to continue life. Her heart leaped up for joy that her father finally accepted her, being a girl who also could only love a girl. "I'm glad you came, my princess
[GILLIAN WALTON] It's been two weeks, but it still hurts. The last conversation I had with Gwen is still fresh in my mind. Every time I remember it, I can't help but cry. I feel like going to explode with the weight in my heart, but I can't do anything but let it all pass. "Mom, do you need help?!" I saw her in the kitchen when I came out of my room. It's like the old days. Mom and I love to cook, experiment, and mix spices. "Good morning! How's your first night back home?" Mom smiled while busy. I retaliated and then approached her. It's just an inch away from her. "Is there something wrong?!" She asked when suddenly I cuddled her. I missed her so much. When I was young, I told her all my problems and troubles. "Did someone hurt my daughter? Tell Mom I'll teach him a lesson he will never forget.." I smiled at what she said and then wiped away my tears. "Her.. Mom.. It's her.." Correcting her as I sniffed, bowing my head down. I don't want her to see me this weak just because of
[ANIKA HODGENS] "What a surprise!" I blurted out of excitement. The place was well decorated according to my taste. When did she make this? "Have a seat, Babe.." Jaz said as she guided me to my place. My eyes are still preoccupied, looking around. It was so beautiful. The flowers and candlelight are so damn romantic. "What is this all about, Babe?!" I asked while thinking in the back of my mind if I had forgotten something special. It isn't our monthsary or anniversary whatsoever because we didn't use to have that kind of celebration even before we parted ways. Now it makes sense. That's why the moment we landed, everyone got disappeared. Did they all plan this ahead of time? Back in the Philippines? "Hey.. Do you wanna eat first? You didn't have any on the plane, so I guess your tummy is already crumbling?" "I... I'm fine.." Shortly I say as I was dumbfounded at the moment. Jaz raised her hand, and then a staff began to bring us food. My eyes twinkled as my throat water
[JAZ AMANDA] Strictly, I reach orgasm when we're about to arrive. I still chased my breath, clanging both hands to Anika's neck. "You are fucking crazy, Babe..." Anika said, giggling. She left a peck on my forehead before loosening up. "Yeah! I'm crazy over you.." We both chuckled, overjoyed, hugging each other. I relaxed and fixed myself before we took off the car. You can say there's a trace of sweat all over me and Anika. That was fun! "Wow! What is this, Babe? Will we stay the night in this vast, exquisite hotel?" Anika's eyes couldn't believe it. I nodded and grabbed her hand, going inside. The staff greeted us, and one of its colleagues guided us into our room. "Wow!" Anika happily yelled as she saw the whole place again. It's perfect to spend the night. There's a pool on the veranda. Anika ran off one by one, removing her clothes and only her undergarments left. She instantly jumped off the pool. I'm elated to see her so happy. "Hey! Come on, Babe. The water is so refre
