I am now rush running upstairs. My boyfriend is now waiting for me On the Rooftop of this MoonLove Tower. I feel Gasping and Perspiration at the same time when I Reach the Door of the Rooftop. 'Why is the Ladder I climbed so long'. I slowly opened the door and automatically smiled when I saw Him, My Stress Reliever. He turned his back on me, so he probably didn't know I was here yet. I slowly walk close to him and hug him from his back. "I love you". I whispered while hugging him. I feel like he was surprised, so I smiled even more. I Waited him to Talk or Hug me back but it didn't happen like he used to do before. He remains silent until the next Minute we stayed in that position. "Babe, what's wrong?". I curiously asked while slightly peeking at his face. Unlike before because he seems to be very quiet today and there is something in his aura that I can't read. It's a blank and Cold Awra that I've never seen him before. It's kinda weird and a little bit scary. I'm a little nervous for some reason I can't figure out. 'Is it because of his Aura?' "Babe? You make me worried, what's wrong?" I was really worried before I gently buried my face in his back and slowly put a kiss in there. My Forehead furrowed with something strange aside from being Cold and quiet. He's not wearing the perfume that I gave him before. 'And now it's really kinda weird and annoying! He never ever used other perfume especially when we make money' I was about to speak when he started to talk. "Are you still happy, Maurine?". He said in a very cold way without looking at me. "Happy on What?". I slowly and curiously asked. I'm nervous. I am still hugging on his back but this time tighter but I was shocked when He removed my hands and Face me. "On us?". He is now Looking straight at my eyes with his Blank emotions and Cold expressions. "Of course I am, I am so happy because you and I are together. Because you are my boyfriend and I am in love with you because you make me happy". I feel nervous but I make sure that I am still smiling in front of him. "You, are you still happy?" He nodded before looking into my eyes again. "If I tell you no more, Are you going to make me go? Are you going to let me go?". He said without emotion while staring hard into my eyes. It was like my ears were ringing at what he said. Suddenly my tears fell without feeling it. "What are you talking about? Are you making Prank on me? Where's your Camera huh? Come on??". I desperately said while fooling around around the entire Rooftop. "I am no Longer happy On you, Maurine. I am no Longer In love with you, Because for me? Loving you is The biggest mistake I ever did On the rest of This F*ck*ng Life! I regret being with you. Let's just end this here. I am now breaking up with you". My tears fell one after the other while still staring at his blank eyes. I can't believe this is happening. I can't believe that he is telling me everything. It was really unexpected and it really hurt. "What are you talking about? You are the first one who came near to me. You were the first one to say that you love me and now you're going to tell me that you don't want me anymore!? That you regret loving me?! Are you that stupid? ". I said crying as I poked him hard. He slowly grinned and laid his eyes on me. "Can't I get sick of you? Come on Maurine, Everyone quickly gets sick of just one dish. Do you really think I really love you? Huh? Haha! I am just Using you for my Own Sake. But now? I do not need you anymore!". Welcome What He Thinks Said to me. I nodded and looked up at my face before tightly closing my eyes. I want to stop my tears because of Mayat's flow. I wanna smash my Heart because of the intensity of the pain it feels. I want to be angry with him for causing me so much pain right now but I can't because now I'm on my knees in front of him and begging him to stay and love me again. "Please don't, I don't want to lose you. I can't, I love you so much. Please let's just forget about this please, I'm begging you please". When I beg him but he seems to be in a binge that doesn't hear anything and keeps staring into my eyes. I am still hoping that I will see him, even if it's just a little bit of pain or sadness, but I'm disappointed. He is no longer in love with me for real. "Stand up, Maurine. Don't put yourself down just because of me". He said annoyed. "No! Please No!". I don't care if someone sees me. I love him and I'm going to lower my pride if necessary. "Baby?" I was shaken when I heard the Voice of the woman behind me. I gently looked at him as Xadbrix approached him. "Are you done breaking up with her, Baby? Let's go because I feel so Hungry." Malanding said the woman. I was about to go so Sugurin automatically stopped me. Xadbrix held her waist and suddenly kissed her. They are now kissing each other in front of me while Xadbrix is seriously staring at me. 'It's really Over now Maurine, That's right'. I cried while telling it on m
Chapter 1 happened 2 years ago
Maurine's POV
2 years later
Hi everyone, My Name is Zachary Maurine Windswell Scott, I am now 18 years old. It is More than a year since Xadbrix and I were Broke up. We don't hear from each other anymore because of what happened. I heard that he went abroad after we broke up, but that's all I knew.
"Zachary, Son? Are you awake yet?". I heard Mommy say while knocking my Room's Door.
"Yes, Mom". I answered while stretching and doing basic exercise.
"Eat, you might be late for your work. I was able to cook". He said it last before I heard her go.
I just held my breath. Yes, I almost forgot that I was going to work. Mommy and I moved away and lived in the Province because of what happened 2 years ago. A lot has changed and happened in my life after those two years. I stopped studying, I lost my carrier, my boyfriend broke up with me and lastly, my dad died. Everything in my Life has Change and I am included in it.
"Oh, Good morning My Baby. Come here, Let's eat.". Mommy said smiling when I went down.
"Good morning too, Mommy, I'm not a child anymore". I said smiling before I kissed her Forehead and Sit beside her.
"Okay". Mommy said with a pout that made me smile.
Seeing the Food just made me smile. 2 eggs, 2 dry fish and fried rice. It is not the Usual Food that Mommy used to prepare for our Breakfast. Back then our table was full of delicious foods like bacon, hotdogs, bread, steak, sausage, cakes and milk. But it's Okay, As long as we're happy and we're together, Everything will be Good to be Okay.
"Amen". We said together After we pray then we started to eat.
After the Breakfast I went to work which is The Flower Power Flower Shop. I don't have a car that's why I just commute.
"Good morning! Hope Avery Pagasa." I opened my eyes to see Hope busy watering. We are at the plant because we are assigned today.
"Tch.. is it really necessary to say my name in full? You're going to have a cold huh! Haha Btw Good morning to you too my baby". He said a little annoyed but hugged me afterwards. haha Hope is fragile.
"Of course, your name is the Chief who gave hope haha. There is hope that there is more hope oh where are you haha?". I teased him making him wince.
We started to do our jobs. I was pulling weeds while Hope was watering. Later Mrs. Macdowell summoned us for some unknown reason.
"Why are you calling us Mrs. Macdowell?". Hope asked as we walked to Mrs Macdowell's Office. I just nodded indicating that I have no idea either.
"Mrs Macdowell, are you calling us?". I asked while knocking on the door as our respect.
"Oh! Zachary, Hope it's good that you're here. Come here, come in". She says that we followed immediately.
"Wow! It has so many flowers Mrs Macdowell". Hope said stupidly. I looked at the flowers that Hope was referring to and even I was amazed at how they were arranged. It was really looking Beautiful and Elegance. There are Big Sunflowers, Bright and beautiful Roses with White, Pink and Red colors and Others.
"Of course it is. We really made it beautiful and used expensive containers and ribbons. Why did my son Aubrey call me last night. He said the university he attends needs a lot of flowers. What kind of school is that?, Ah! That's at Te Amo University in Manila". Mrs Macdowell's funny story.
"Woww! Isn't that the Most Expensive and Famous University in the Philippines? I heard that it's been two years since Te Amo University was built and received students who were really crowded and rioted by all the rich people in the country".
I see the intense admiration in Hope's eyes at that school, while I was a little sad.
"Yes, I hope you're right. Well, that's why I called you here because I wanted you to deliver these flowers to Te Amo University. We still have a lot of orders right now, so I can't go with you. Is that okay? ". Mrs Macdowell asked. I was about to refuse because Manila is far away but I was ahead of Hope to speak.
"yes! We'll take care of that Ma'am hihihi, right, Zachary?". Hope said. With his eyes full of excitement.
"Huh?".
"Oh? Mrs. Macdowell said yes hehe..". Hope said with a smile.
"That's Good! I'm going to call Piping to take you". Mrs Macdowell also said excitedly.
I just sighed before giving Hope a bad look.
"Sorry! Hehehe". She Says with her Finger Piece sign.
'It's unlikely that we'll meet there, right? Manila is vast and He's in Another Country for heaven God's sake.'
"Hyss". Am I still thinking about him!? Tch!
Hope's POV
I can't believe that I will now set foot in Te Amo University. It's the most famous University here in the Philippines, but of course it's also the most expensive. Well let me introduce my name first, My Name is Hope Avery Pagasa, 17 years old. It's a full name oh Pagasa! But of course that's just Charot because I'm just a lowly poor man. I am Proud to be Best Friend of Zachary Maurine Windswell Scott.
Zachary looks at me badly now huh! How come he still doesn't want to agree to Mrs. Macdowell's order. Opportunity We can do that. You know we can find our forever in Manila. And it's also my dream to be able to study there, so even if I can get there, I hope I'll be okay.
"Sorry! Hehehe". I Said with matching Finger Piece sign that made him wince before thinking deeply.
Well I'm just happy Happy!!
Mrs Macdowell entered shortly afterwards.
"Mang Pipeng will be able to arrive later because he still has five more to deliver. So it's better you go home to rest first and then come back here after lunch". Mrs Macdowell said with a smile.
"po? Eh? Just now Mrs. Macdowell.. I'm really excited". Kong Sabi pouted before thinking about the method. "What if we just commute? Right Zachary?". I said smiling with matching puppy eyes.
"Hope, our shop van is not here yet. You can't commute because we have to maintain the arrangement of the flowers that will be delivered to Te Amo University". Laughing Mrs Macdowell said it made me sad.
Huhuhu! I want to go there!!!!
"It's okay Mrs. Macdowell". He said quietly to Mrs Macdowell before turning to me. "Hope Avery Pagasa, If I were you I would agree to be ready when I was ready, right?". He smiled a little.
"That's right! I've got my Hanggard and now my Uniform has a coat! Alright Mrs. Macdowell, we'll be back after Lunch hehehe". I said a hand on my neck. How can I hook Forever If I look like Purita slash Octopus that smells like Squid!? Aishhhh! Good thing Zachary reminded me.
"Okay, see later". Mrs Macdowell said laughing before we left her in her office.
"Let's Cry Together?". I asked Zachary who was still deep in thought. So weird.
"You go first because I'm still going to the grocery store to buy food to stock up at home". He said quietly.
"Ah, okay.. I'm going to go ahead of you, huh? I'm going to look for a nice dress at home." I force my self to laugh but the truth is that I am really guilty. Maybe he is annoyed with me because of what I did.
"Alright. See you later". He said before walking out of the Plant.
"Tears? Is he angry!?". Taka asked himself before leaving.
Maurine's POV
Maybe Hope is now wondering what I'm doing, it's a bit OA because she will react. I'm not really angry with him, so I'm quiet. It's just a kind of weird. It's just that when Xadbrix suddenly came to my mind a while ago, it was like all the pain 2 years ago suddenly came back to me.
Isn't It Just A Fool? It was already 2 years ago but I'm still hurting. The size of its effect on me is still great. Maybe because of the intensity of the pain that he put me through 2 years ago or because of the intensity of the love that I gave him without knowing that I had nothing left for myself.
My tears suddenly fall without even realizing it before I finally enter the grocery store.
I choose to Buy Foods that Last or long term Like Noodles, Sardines, Eggs and So On. (Hopefully all will last). My eyes landed on the Fruits section, that's why I decided to go and see something I can buy which is just right for my budget.
"Hello sister, How much are Apples?". I asked with a smile on my face.
"20 pesos per Isa Ma'am". He said politely while showing me the Good Quality Apple products he sells.
"Isn't Apple only 12 each? I just bought it here yesterday.". I asked with a frown.
'Tss.. I'm going to be seduced by my sister'
"Apples have fallen in love Ma'am, that's why!". He answered a little annoyed.
"Tch! When did Apple fall in love, Sister? Does it have a heart!?". I said full of sarcasm.
I don't know but I feel like I'm freezing today! I'm high Blood! You know that feeling of being so angry, so angry?!
"You can, Ma'am, 30 pesos for two, so you Sampo can have a discount".
"No, sister! I'll just take one. It's not like you're a pig. You can't survive. You can only have one apple!? I don't care if you love your Apples! Just give me one and then!" . My Voice now is going Louder with matching Anger. I don't know why I'm just really nervous.
"Here it is Ma'am". It's shaking when it reaches Apple.
"Thanks!". I said before turning his back and going to the Counter.
After I paid my bills I went out to the Mall Market. I looked at the time on Hope's phone to Checked the Time, it was 10 o'clock. Yes You Read It Right! It's Hope's phone. I don't have a phone. It's good that Hope lent it to me so that she can contact me if I ever back out.
While walking, my eye caught a Simple Pink dress on display in a Shop here inside the Mall. I smiled a little and realized that I was almost there.
"That's great! ₱100,000 right away!? That's so expensive!". I Over Acting Shout while my Mouth is Open.
This is how my clothes used to be. The Only difference is I have my Own Designers and They are more Unique and more Expensive than this dress. All the materials and fabrics used to make it come from other countries. All my clothes are pure dresses and not like today which are Pure T-shirts and Low Class. I hope I'll be holding the dress when Kung Sino Sa Besi me precedes me.
"Are you going to buy this One? If not, can it be mine?". She said while smiling.
I can't stop being in awe of him. She is so beautiful and classy. Her blond long hair is in a ponytail, which is obviously well-groomed. She's wearing a Gold Dress with her Killer High Hills Sandals. I didn't see her eyes because they were covered by her LV Black Shade. But that can't erase the fact that She really looks like a Goddess.
"Hey? Can you hear me? Miss, you okay?". His question awakened my spirit.
"ha? Yeah, I can hear you". I smiled while tapping my head. So Idiot Maurine.
"Yeah, haha. So are you going to get this Cute Dress?".
"No, I Just Looked at You".
'Tyaka diko Afford'
"Yeeee! Thanks". She said before taking the dress and leaving.
I just sighed before walking around the Shop again to look around. After my eyes were satisfied, I also left and went to the parking area to go home.
"Help Me!! Plea-----".
I got shocked when I heard a voice shouting and begging for help. I quickly hid behind the Post and peeped a little.
"Would you stop shouting! Zam?! Just come with me!". The man said in annoyance as he covered the woman's mouth and forced her into the White Van.
'She's The girl earlier at the Shop'
"No! Let Me Go Jarrett!! Help!!!! please help me?".
"No one Can Help you here Zam! Just go with me! Please. I love you". The man said.
"Fuck your Love! Jarrett! Are you crazy!??! We broke up a long time ago and I have my New Boyfriend Now So fuck me!". She shouted while trying to push the boy.
"Huh!? Really Babe? So Do you really think that Sin loves you? You're a fool too!? You know what? Let's just stop Arguing Common". The boy said before he forcibly dragged the woman Helper when he was accompanied by two other Men.
"I said No!!! Stop Touching me Jarrett! I swear I'm gonna Sue you! You're going to pay for this!". The girl said while Shouting for Help.
"Let him go!!!". I shouted loudly while both my eyes were closed.
"and who do you think you are for us to follow?! Huh!?". A man said.
"Miss, don't worry about it! It's just a fight with a sweetheart". Another man also said.
"No! No! Please help me! I don't know them miss please call a Police!". Said the woman crying.
"Just let him go if you don't want to get hurt!". I said boldly.
"The three men laughed.
"Why can you do us? Hahaha". Said the person holding the Woman.
"Miss! No! Just Call a police! You can't handle them!". He wails and screams.
"Tss.. I don't need to call the police!". I said bravely with matching Killer eyes and Grinned.
"You are too arrogant!".boy 1
"Let's wrap it up!". Boys 2
"Why do you need the Police? Do you really think you can handle us?". Leader.
"No". I said complacently.
"The three of them laughed.
"There's no need to call the police because I just called earlier. They're right behind you!".
"They suddenly stopped laughing and turned around at the same time.
"Raise your hands". The police said that the three immediately followed.
"Sir! We're not doing anything wrong, she's my girlfriend". Defending the leader.
"Is that true Miss?". Police.
"No! He's Lying!!! He's not my Boyfriend!". Asik while Crying before approaching the man and Slap him. " I'm your ExJarrett So stop me! Go away and don't show me anymore!".
"Z-ZAM?".
"I Said Leave!". She Shouted.
The Three Get In The Van Quickly And Leave.
"Wait Miss? Aren't you going to file a case against them?". The police asked.
"No, sir! I know them and I believe they will never do that again". She said.
I would like to react because it's just weird, isn't it? She's begging for help because she's about to be kidnapped and then she just ran away? What a fool.
"SPO1 PAGASA, Thank you for the quick response". I said smiling.
"It's okay Zach, I'll go ahead of you". SPO1 PAGASA said. Hope's Father.
"Thank you very much for saving me". The woman said before hugging me."By the way I am Zamora Yness Gzerniey".
"It's okay! I'm Zachary". I said smiling. I don't want to give my full name, so it's Zachary.
"Nice to meet you, Zachary. Please accept this as part of My Thank you for saving me".
'This is the Pink dress earlier in the Shop, why is she giving it to me?! Can't you just say thank you!?'
I was a bout to refuse when he put it in my hand.
"Thank you". He said before leaving and getting into his car.
