Faith woke up earlier than usual. It was more like she had no sleep at all. No matter how much she tried and rolled on the bed she found very comfortable, she could not bring herself to have a peaceful sleep without tearing up. She just wished she could lace her fingers on the exact thing that was happening to her, but too bad. She could not. She got dressed and when it was time to go to her boss, she hesitated. She did not want to go there just to get her day more ruined. It was bad enough. But did she have a choice? She heaved a long sigh and started walking into the main house. Very soon, she would be free. She would be dropping her resignation letter very soon and would be liberated from him and the pains he had been giving her. She decided to finally let everything go. She decided to forget him and move o

"Sir, I can explain what you heard why I said that. I really didn't mean it. I was just on the phone with my friend and – and.. I don't even know. Allow me to explain, please," she pleaded. Her boss could only smile. There was no need for to explain nor were there any reason to deny meaning it. It did not mean anything. He knew what to do. "I will give what you want." He walked back to his swivel chair and sat. He saw an envelope on his desk and opened, wondering what it was about.  It was her resignation letter. When did she put that on his desk? Probably when she came in first to drop his briefcase. He raised it up for her to see. "I will approve this. Just one last thing, thank you so much for your hard work and for putting up with my attitude. Most especially, I really appreciate you for making me open up m

Faith became agaped at the sight of where her friend brought her. "A club?" She laughed. Eunice nodded. "Yeah. You should get rid of your stress. There's a lot you can do here. And who knows ? You might actually find the one here." Faith smiled. She didn't believe that. Her friend should know that. Yeah, she believed she could find love anywhere. But clubs? Nah. And besides, finding love wasn't on her to-do list.  Judging from her expression, Eunice knew what she was thinking, so she said, "Well, you never know what could happen. Shall we go in?"  As they walked along the pathway, Faith recognized the place and smiled. "I've been here a few times." 

"I do, Desmond. And yes, I said so, but I was only trying to come up with excuses not to love you because you don't love. You stopped loving. I didn't plan on falling in love with you. I didn't want to get hurt. It just happened. And I'm sorry. I am sorry for everything." In less than a second, he was hugging her. Oddly, he felt relieved as he did so. He sighed as he noticed her leaning into him. It was as if she needed that and was waiting for him to do so. "You don't have to be sorry. Look at me," he said and put her at arm's length. She locked eyes with him. His eyes were searching hers as if there was something he was looking for. And he seemed so sad and happy at the same time.  "I love you, Faith. Everything is all complicated but that is how I feel. When you subm
