CHAPTER 31Rain's Point of ViewI WAKE UP to a light hand caressing my cheek. I immediately smiled when I saw that it was Ali. He is wearing different clothes but his arm is still bandaged. I slowly got up and sat on the bed."You just got home?" I asked him."A while ago. I already took a shower."I frowned. "How did you take a bath if you had a wound on your arm? Who helped you?""Just me! I can do that alone.""Are you sure?""Yes.""Okay. How is your schedule? Any news?" I asked remembering where he went earlier."When I got there, the bodies were gone. Three bodies of men were found according to the police. All are at the funeral home.""Have you met?"Ali shook his head. "Because their car exploded when it hit a tree, the engine quickly exploded. The bodies were burnt so they could not be identified."I felt both fear and pity for that. "Theyre pitiful.""Poor thing? Do you know that their goal is your life and then you feel sorry for them?" Ali looked a little angry when he sai

CHAPTER 33—Taking Care of HimRain's Point of ViewBECAUSE Ali had to take medicine right away, I didn't cook anymore. I just sent food from the mansion and also sent medicine. I made sure that everything needed would be brought to his house.While waiting, I went inside the room to wipe Ali with a face towel. I felt him for a while and when I was sure he was asleep, I carefully sat next to him. I laughed a little when I saw Ali's eyebrows meet even though he was sound asleep.I lightly slapped Ali's cheek and forehead. He's still hot. Maybe it was because of the wound from the bullet wound. I just sighed before grabbing the face towel and submerging it in the water. I squeezed it and slowly touched it to his skin. Even though he didn't wake up, Ali's face showed that he was slightly relieved by what I was doing. I also took another face towel which I followed by wiping in passing with a wet face towel.I continued it up to his neck to his arm.After a while, I finished what I was doi

CHAPTER 35—Shouldn't RushRain's Point of ViewWhen I went to the living room, I found my daddy and Migs talking at the mini bar counter.Doctor Migs immediately smiled at me when he saw me come out of Ali's room. He even raised the sandwich in his hand that looked like it came from my mommy's delivery. I just nodded here. It walked closer to me."I'll just go see Ali.""Okay." Dad left us.Daddy turned around and looked at me seriously. "Rain, is what Ali said true?"I nodded and sat on the high chair. "Yes, dad. Why?"It didn't answer immediately. He nodded slowly then came closer to me. He put his arm around my shoulder before speaking, "Rain, I know you know that we are not against whatever you and Ali have. Actually, we are even reassured now because we know that Ali will tighten your security even more," he said. "But Ali's job is not easy.""I know that, daddy. To be honest, I'm worried about him."My daddy gently patted my arm. "Even us, but let's just trust him, okay?""Yes,

CHAPTER 37—LimitationsRain's Point of ViewMy cousin also left me in the room after that and was about to go back to where mommy was when Ali entered my room. He even raised the box of buko pie and smiled at me."Do you want some, baby?"I smiled as I reached for the box. I excitedly sat on the sofa and Ali also sat next to me. I opened it excitedly. "It smells! It looks delicious!" I said and smelled it some more. I was even more appetizer to see that the crust was a bit dry. "Where did you buy it?""I had a friend and I asked to do that.""You ordered?" I took one."Yes. It's made to order." His face shows pride in himself.I looked at Ali in disbelief. "Really?""Yes! Ask Gianna and Migs! I'm with them," he said with a snort as he leaned on the sofa. "You don't seem to trust me."I chewed and swallowed the knuckle pie in my mouth before answering, "Are you sulking?""I do not know about you." His eyebrows met and he frowned.I laughed at his reaction. I wiped my mouth first before

CHAPTER 39—Missing His MomRain's point of viewI was not surprised when I woke up the next day to find that there were many guards surrounding our house. My parents' house is not as big as the mansion in Villa Floris, but it is also two stories. But the number of security guards can be said to be the same as how many there are in the mansion.I gasped while pouring cereal and milk into the bowl. I haven't seen Ali since coming down from the room. My mommy is busy watering the plants. I just said good morning to her and went straight to the kitchen to have breakfast.I even glanced at my cell phone, which was on the table next to the bowl. Ali didn't even have a single text or call. When I knocked on his and Migs' room earlier, there was no one there. Even my cousin Gianna was not by my side when I woke up.My dad is like that too. He wasn't there, but I had an idea that it might have gone to a branch of our business.I had just taken a few bites of cereal when I decided to call Ali.
