Cianna's POV:"Why did you hide this from us, Cianna?" Mom asked crying. I had explained to her earlier but she could not accept my reason. Whatever I stopped her from crying I couldn’t stop her. She's crying too bad."Mom, I already told you my reasons." I said softly. I never thought that what I said would affect my mother so badly. She blames herself, because she said that she hasn't been a good mother to me and she hasn't done her motherhood properly."I'm sorry. I thought I could do it." I added before I hugged my Mom tightly."Promise, I won't do it again." I told her. Suddenly she stopped sobbing then she looked at me."You have to! And I will never leave you alone again, from now on, I'll just be here next to you!" Mom said childishly as she continues from crying."Yes. Not anymore." I said then I hugged her again so that she would stop sobbing completely."Cianna, can I talk to you?" Mom let go of my hug, we also turned to Papa at the same time. His face was serious and there
Cianna's POV:I am currently outside the house while savoring the fragrant smell of auntie Carmilla’s flowering plants. It also feels good to touch the fresh air on my skin. Because of the comfort I feel, I close my eyes."You're just here." I was stunned when I felt Rod's two arms twisted around my waist. He hugs me now from behind me. I can also feel his lips touching my hair. He smells and kisses my hair causing me to close my eyes again."Tell me, what do you feel right now?" He asked me a gentle question. He still couldn't stop sniffing the smell of my hair."I feel relieved and secured." I answered his question. I heard comfort from him.To be honest, ever since my whole family found out about my illness everything seems to have been easy for me. I am even more filled with hope because of the love and hope they give me. I have found that a heavy object is much lighter if you have an assistant or companion in lifting it."Thank you." I told him as I hugged his arms."Thank you fo
Rodleigh's POV:It's been almost a year.I have been with Cianna for almost a year in her fight against cancer. And as her personal doctor, I don't want to admit it to myself, but the truth is in the situation I see and the results of each of her tests will not last long and her body will give up. Something I can't accept. No, I don't want to accept. As a lover of her, I want her to be healed so that I can finally make up for her, of my shortcomings when we were still together."Rod," I quickly wiped my eyes because I didn't realize I was crying again. I smiled first before I took Cianna's hands which she was forcibly holding out to me."Why, do you want something? Do you need something?" I asked her one question after another as I held her hand.We are here now at the hospital. I myself decided that she should just stay in the hospital so that in case there is an emergency, we can take care of her immediately."Nothing." Her response was weak. The pain she is feeling now is also visi
Rodleigh's POV:When I returned to the hospital, I found Cianna smiling as she talked to our children. I peeked slightly at the door to listen to their conversation."Lessandra, promise me, you'll take care of your twin sister, okay?" Cianna said to the twins."Why, Mommy? Can't you take care of us anymore?" Lessandra asked her Mom sadly and with a hint of astonishment."It's not like that, I mean, I'm not here for life to take care of you." she explained.I just realized I was already crying. It seems to she's ready on letting us all know that she's really dying. But it is not possible, it is not yet time, not yet until the things written on her list are fulfilled."Don't worry about me, mom. I can handle myself." Lessanna said to her Mom proudly."Thank you. I'm forever grateful for having you two." she said to our twins while holding her tears."Can you give Mommy a hug?" She asked crying."Sure, mom!" the twins replied with a very big smile on their faces.When the three of them h
Rodleigh's POV:"Congratulations!" Cianna and my family greeted us warmly. Cianna and I just got married. I can say that I am the happiest man in the world because unfortunately, I am married again with the woman I love so much.Yes, it is sad because our wedding was only held in the hospital. But that doesn’t matter anymore, the important thing is, Cianna and I are happy."Thank you." at the same time Cianna and I said."Congrats, Mom and Dad!" Our twins greeted us also happily."Thank you, babies!" Cianna said then she kissed the two on their cheeks. While I could not erase the smiles on my lips because of the great pleasure I feel."Thank you so much, love. I love you, always and forever." I told her then I hugged her tightly."Thank you also for loving me with all your heart." she replied and hugged me tighter."Love, I want to eat beef stew. Can you buy me one?" I was even surprised because of her sudden request, but in the end I still left to buy her beef stew outside."Auntie,
Fifteen Years Later.Lessandra's POV:"Teacher, teacher! Someone is looking for you outside!" At once my pupils said. I quickly got up from my desk and went outside to see who my guest was."You!" I flinched when I was suddenly pointed at by an unfamiliar man."Excuse me?" I said confusedly as I pointed to myself."How dare you to ranaway after getting the money that you've asked?" He said angrily. I was even more confused by what he said. What currency is he referring to?"Lessanna, you need to go home because my Grandpa is coming. He wants to see you. He wants to meet my wife—""Stop!" I never let him finished his words. I also quickly pulled him into a private place. It’s hard, we’re at school and I don’t want my pupils to see the way I talk to this guy. I don’t know what he’s saying."What are you saying? What wife?" I asked him annoyed. I don't really know him but if he speaks it's like we'll meet and I'm in arrears with him."Have you forgotten? Didn't you beg me to take you as
Lessandra's POV:I don’t know if I’m going to do it right. If this is the right thing to do just to be with my twin sister again. But I have already decided and I will accept that man's offer.Here I am today at Mom and Dad’s grave. Carrying white flowers, I slowly approached the tomb and laid there two baskets of flowers. I also took the white candles and lit them one by one in front of the picture of Mom and Dad.When I lit the candles, I looked up at the sky as if in the future and I was talking to Mom and Dad.Even before I could speak, I could feel my tears welling up immediately. I tried to stop crying by biting my lower lip."Mom, I really miss you and Daddy. Do you know that?" I cried talking to Mommy and Daddy while looking at their pictures."If I could just ask one wish, I would have wished for a long time that you were still here. Maybe, if you and Dad hadn't died right away, Lessanna wouldn't have run away, would she?" I kept talking to the two of them."But it doesn't ma
Lessandra's POV:"We're here." I looked out of Ashton's car when he said we had arrived at his Grandfather's Mansion. We are now in front of a big house, a palace-like house."I'm nervous." I said softly before I slowly removed my seatbelt."You don't have to be nervous." Smiling, he said. But he still didn't say enough so that I wouldn't be nervous, I seemed even more nervous."What if he doubts?" I couldn’t help but asked him."No, what you're thinking won't happen. Trust me. Just act like naturally." He said to lighten my spirits. I just forcedly smiled before nodding to him."Ashton!" His Grandfather immediately greeted him. Ashton greeted his Grandfather with open arms. They just hugged for a moment then his Grandpa patted his shoulder."So, do I have a great -grandchild with you?" he asked Ashton laughing. I winced at what I heard."Lessanna! I miss you, my granddaughter." He said laughing before hugging me and lightly patting my shoulder as well."I'm fine, Grandpa. I miss you
