[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
[GWEN STACY] When I woke up, Gillian was the first person I saw. My eyes widened, and I realized that I was in a hospital. I looked back at what happened. I remember swallowing almost all the pills in the drawer near my bed. As far as I know, it's just sleeping pills. "Hey. You're up. I will call the nurse.." Gillian said. I didn't respond and just let her be. I missed her so much. The first thing I wanted to do was to hug her, but that was not possible. We already broke up, and I know how much I have hurt her. Afterwards, my Dad came in. "Hey, how's your feeling? Are you feeling better now?! You scared the hell out of me, my dear. Don't you ever do that again, please?" "It's not what you think, Dad. I just wanted to fall asleep, but I couldn't. I messed up and took all the pills left in the bottle. I didn't mean to hurt myself." "You are not in your right mind, Honey. By the way, where's Gillian?" "She called the Doctor." "I must admit it was my fault. I have to do som
"You are still young back then. Maybe that's why you don't remember. They died in a car accident. They are both drunk and from a night out party, celebrating their anniversary of being in love. Your Mom and I were so devastated to lose your sister so early. We couldn't accept it and put all the blame on the other person." Now everything makes sense. Gwen is afraid I may not be able to fight for her, or she's somewhat scared I may choose to leave her, so she did it instead. "But we learned from it, my dear. Nobody is at fault, and that's an accident. We wanted to reach out to the Stacy family but couldn't. Perhaps lack of courage to do so. Talk to Gwen. If you really love her, you have all the freedom. We won't stop you and will support you from now on. Besides, maybe this is a good start for both families that, for once, become one." # # # I don't know if Im going to talk to Gwen. Even if everything is fine now, the fact that she gave up on me hurts me a lot. Maybe we're not
