JUST as Daniel had told her, her parents and brother were in the mansion and that is where she caught up with them. Marielle smiled as she greeted her and hugged her. Then they quickly invited her and her family to eat because dinner was also ready in the dining room.Although full of astonishment, Ara chose not to ask and just waited for what Daniel would say about the result of the examination.After dinner, the young man invited her to the garden where there was a swinging bench with a canopy made of steel. They sat there, side by side.For a moment silence fell on them. None of them seemed to want to start a conversation because they both knew what they were going to talk about and that was why they were there.When Daniel took her hand, the young lady decided to lean her head on her boyfriend's shoulder.She was nervous but she didn't want to be swallowed by that nervousness. Sh

IN the following days both of them became busy fixing everything for their wedding. Daniel's mother has been the one helping them. The wedding will be held at Judge Arcega's office. The judge is a friend of Daniel's parents who will be the one to marry them."Where are we going?" Ara asked one day before their wedding.It was a Saturday, no classes, while their wedding would be held the next day."Let's buy a dress for you to wear for tomorrow. I want you to be very beautiful," the young man stared at her then stroked her cheek."Can you still drive?" she asked the young man in a worried tone."Of course, I'm taking advantage of the opportunity while I can because I know I won't be able to do all this soon, especially when my treatment starts," her boyfriend told her as they left the garage.But that was the intensity of the shock that Ara felt w

MARIELLE had already asked them what they planned for their first night as a couple. At first, Daniel joked that he wanted a trip to Europe, but because of his condition, they both knew that it was impossible to happen.Ara suggested that they stay at the mansion. Now she is happily married to the man she loves the most. For her, more important than anything money can buy and pay for is to start Daniel's treatment."Why didn't you agree when Mama suggested we check in at a five-star hotel?" as they had agreed before she moved into the mansion she would sleep in her husband's bedroom from that night on.They were on the veranda then and breathing some fresh air. They had just finished eating a delicious dinner that Salyn and her mother-in-law prepared. In addition to that, they also had a nice lunch earlier as their wedding reception at a five-star hotel and restaurant."I don't need that, I prefer i

"ISN'T it bad for you that we're doing this?" when they were both lying on the bed that was what Ara asked her husband.Ara heard the faint laugh that ran down on Daniel's throat. "I don't think so," he replied and then pulled her at touched her forehead with a simple kiss."In that case, let's take advantage of the situation," she said as she moved and went on top of her husband."Ara!" Daniel rebukes her.Thrilled that she just laughed softly and then started undressing again the now thin negligee that she was wearing."You don't have to get up, don't worry because I'm in charge this time," she said, throwing her negligee and then followed by her underwear made of thin lace.Their room was dark at that moment because they had turned off the light earlier after taking a bath. And only the light coming from the lamppost on the road serves as their torch. Its light pen

"WHAT are you saying?" my weeping utterance."The truth," he laughed softly then stared at me. "Look at me," a moment later I averted my gaze from my husband that's what I heard him say.Even though I didn't want to, I willingly obeyed him. Daniel has always been like that. He had his own way of persuading me and he did not have to raise his voice or be authoritative in the tone of his speech to do so."When I'm gone, fall in love again, go on with your life," I quickly felt an intense coldness all over my body because of what Daniel said.I shook my head consecutively. "No, you know I can't do that. You know how much I love you and when I do that you also know that even if there is someone else next to me you will still be the one I will look for, you will still be the one I will find," I cried insistently.I can't believe I heard those words from him personally but on the other han
