I walk to get to the office. When I got to the right floor, I hurried to my table. "Kimberly Mae Villafuerte, you're late again" Mam Chynthia raised her eyebrows while looking at me "I'm so sorry mam" I scratched my head "You know, if you weren't an efficient secretary, I would have fired you," he said laughing My smile widened because of what he said. "Why are you so patient here at our company. You have the most successful company hija" "Mam, I told you I want to stand and be successful on my own without using my parent's nor my brother's names" "That's what I want from you. You are really so sure of what you want in life" he patted my shoulder. "By the way, my son will be coming today. He'll take over now the company. So, he will be your new boss. Be nice to him, okay? And please bare with him when he's rude but knowing you? I know I won't fold you there" he said laughing. "No worries mam. I'll handle him" I went to my table and arranged my new boss's schedule. I never met the son of Mam Cynthia because he said he stayed in the US for several years. I was busy fixing my table when I noticed that my ring was missing. Sh*t! It's all gone, don't do that! I hastily looked back at everything I went through. Kim, you are so careless! I started crying because I couldn't find the ring. I was outside the building when something suddenly flashed. My eyes widened and I smiled when I saw that. I ran towards the ring but my smile disappeared when I saw someone step on it. Oh ha! Don't step on that, you'll hit me! My eyebrows met as I looked at the man who stepped on my ring but I was stunned when I recognized the man in front of me now. Suddenly, my chest started to tremble and my whole body went cold. I don't understand what I want to do. I don't know how to cry. The emotions I feel are mixed. Until I found myself making my way towards the man standing. I felt my tears fall. I stood in front of him but he just stared at me. It rolled its eyes all over my face but it didn't react. I was not able to contain myself. I wrapped my arms around her and hugged her very tightly. I quietly sobbed while hugging it. I stopped when he spoke. "Excuse me miss, do I know you?" I looked up at him. Its eyebrows meet. "It's me Damon, Kim" I asked in surprise but he didn't give me any reaction. "I'm sorry but I don't know you" he said coldly. "Damon" I turned to a beautiful woman walking towards Damon. When the woman got close, Damon hugged her tightly and kissed her on the cheek. "I miss you, Kim" and he hugged the girl again. We agreed. I can not believe. It doesn't seem to recognize me. Damon walked with my namesake girl away from me. I was left standing outside the building. My tears flowed. He's okay. He's fine. For 8 years, I waited for him to come back because he said he would come back to me but why did he act differently? It's like he's not the Damon I used to be. I sighed and picked up my ring that Damon had given me before. I looked at it and kissed it. This is the only thing he left me. I went up to the office with a heavy heart. "Hey, Kim, the new boss is here, Mam Cynthia has been looking for you for a while" I was brought back to reality because of what my co-worker said. I fixed myself and knocked on the office. I opened the door and it seemed like I wanted to close it again because Damon was there next to the girl with my name. I tried to smile at the people inside. "Oh, here's my most efficient secretary. Come here Kim" Mam Cynthia called me. "This is Damon and he will take over the company. So, starting now, he is your new boss" Mam Cynthia introduced me. I swallowed and looked at Damon who just looked straight at me. There was no emotion in his face or eyes. "Good morning sir" I greeted here. "Good morning" he said sparingly and turned to the woman next to him. I approached Mam Cynthia and whispered to her "Son, is he yours?" "Yes, hija. Why?" "No. I'll stay outside. Just call me when you need something" I politely said goodbye to them. I threw myself on the swivel chair. I turned it around while looking at the ring on my hand. "I can't be wrong. He's my Damon. He's the one. My heart beats like this only for him. I'm sure" I was able to sit when Mam Cynthia came out with the two. I gasped when they passed me. Damon didn't spare me a glance. I felt irritation and pain in my heart. I don't understand what is happening. I jumped out of the chair when Damon suddenly appeared in front of me. I swallowed before speaking. "Yes sir?" I'm nervous to ask here "May I have my schedule for this week" he asked formally I handed him his schedule and when I got it, he turned me away. But before entering he turned to me. "Another thing, do you have other names aside from Kim?" it asked "Why sir?" "My girlfriend's name is Kim. I don't want another Kim, so do you have any other name?" this is a serious question. I stopped and bowed. Girlfriend? The girl was his girlfriend earlier. My

"No worries mam. I'll handle him"
I went to my table and arranged my new boss's schedule. I never met the son of Mam Cynthia because he said he stayed in the US for several years. I was busy fixing my table when I noticed that my ring was missing.
Shit! It's all gone, don't do that!
I hastily looked back at everything I went through.
Kim, you are so careless!
I started crying because I couldn't find the ring. I was outside the building when something suddenly flashed. My eyes widened and I smiled when I saw that.

"Why sir?"
"My girlfriend's name is Kim. I don't want another Kim, so do you have any other name?" this is a serious question.
I stopped and bowed. Girlfriend? The girl was his girlfriend earlier. My heart felt like it was stabbed. I took a deep breath before looking at him again.
"My full name is Kimberly Mae Villafuerte" I said holding back tears
"Okay. I'll call you Kimberly" he said and closed the door At the same time as the door closed, my tears fell. I feel a strange pain. Does he have a girlfriend? Why doesn't he seem to remember me?
Damon. What happened to you ?......
"Kim, you're late again" shouted our captain.
"Sorry, my older brothers are slow" I scratched my head before entering the van I'm the only one missing. When we arrived at Xavier University there were a lot of people. First basketball game today against our school, Mckinley University.
"Captain, where is the cr here?"
"Dun. Hurry up and we'll be ready"
I quickly ran to restroom Fortunately, there was no one. I breathed a sigh of relief when I released the urine I had been holding back.
I was stunned when I opened the door and there was a topless man in front of me.
"Naughty!"
I threw the bottled water I was holding at him. It hit him in the head. I quickly covered my eyes and turned away from it I stomped in annoyance.
"You can open your eyes now. I'm all dressed" the man's voice was deep.
When I removed the blindfold, I saw that he was already dressed. I dealt with it quickly. I tortured him and marched out of the restroom but before I could get out the man spoke.
"Miss" I stopped going out. It walked closer to me. I was taken back by what it did. He stopped in front of me and he smirked at me.
"Before you throw stones, first check if the cr you entered is correct" he said and pointed to the signage on the door.
My eyes widened when I saw that I was in the male restroom. I closed my eyes and bit my lip because of my stupidity. I heard his soft laugh because of my reaction. I was surprised to hear her laugh. I'm only up to the man's shoulders. I don't know why I suddenly got nervous when our eyes met.
But my heart lost even more when it came closer to me. I leaned against the wall and the man rested his arm on the wall. I was about to kiss her neck when she got closer because there were groups of men who suddenly entered the restroom. It seems that it hides me from the new classes.
"Hey! That's not allowed! You're really prickly Damon" they hit him on the shoulder but he didn't turn around because he was hiding my face from it. His broad shoulders and chest blocked my face I felt a rush of electricity when he suddenly grabbed my arm to pull me out of the men's cr. When we got out, I quickly ran away from it and when I was quite far away, I turned to him and shouted." I smiled and waved at it before running back to my companions.
When I came back they were fixing it. I quickly joined the warm up. I participate in cheerdance. I was one of the flyers and we were the opening.
The shouts and screams of those inside the court were very loud. He cheers them on in their bet groups. The buzzer has sounded to signal that the game is about to start. I shook my whole body to get rid of the nervousness and when our group's name was called, we ran to the middle with all out smiles Even though I was very nervous, I forced myself to smile with all my teeth. I remember all the routines in my mind so as not to make mistakes. Counting in the mind so as not to make a mistake.
Our routine was about to end when I noticed Thalia who was my fellow flyer. He suddenly pulled me down even though I wasn't even counted.
Shit!
I didn't do anything when I misstepped and fell because even my catchers weren't ready. I feel the pain because of what Thalia did. I continued with the routine even though my foot hurt a lot. I still smiled and when the performance ended, I winced.
My catchers approached me. They showed concern but I just smiled. They support me until I can sit.
"What is it Thalia?! Do you suspect Kim?" Coach said angrily
"Sorry, the number was wrong" he said bowing
"Sorry, Kim got a sprain!"
"It's fine coach" I said here so as not to scold Thalia, maybe it wasn't really intentional.
I took a deep breath when I tried to move my leg but it really hurt.
I adjusted my seat and looked up. When I raised my head, we immediately saw a man named "Damon" that I saw earlier in restroom. He was sitting on the other side of the court because they were our school's opponent.
We stared at each other for a while before he spoke without a voice.
"Does it hurt?" he mouthed the word to me. When I understood that, I gave an okay sign and smiled at him to say that it was okay.
He shook his head and smiled slightly. My heart tickled when I saw her smile.
"Kim" caught our coach's attention.
"Just go to the clinic first so you can rest your feet"
I nodded at this. Some of my squad mates joined me to support me on the walk. When I was about to leave the door of the court, I looked in Damon's direction again. That's how fast my heart beat when I saw that he was still looking at me. It seemed to lead me with its gaze. I couldn't stop smiling at him and my heart just dropped when I saw him smile back at me.
My squad mates left me at the Xavier clinic and since there was nothing to do, I just slept. I woke up when I felt someone kiss my forehead. Opening my eyes, I immediately saw Brother Vincent.
"I told you not to join that stupid cheerdance" he said annoyed.
"Brother, everyone experienced a sprain. Don't get OA"
Brother Vincent helped me stand up and helped me out. When we went out, I saw Brother Ethan but I was surprised by what he was talking to now. Damon. Damon and I immediately met our eyes because of this, Brother Ethan also looked at me. They both approached Brother Vincent and me. Brother Ethan immediately kissed my hair while Brother Vincent and I patted Damon's shoulder.
"Next time you break, you're gonna quit" Brother Ethan said gruffly.

I will ask "I will marry her" Ali replied and I looked at him evilly "Please sweetie just marry my son this is for your good" aunt said gently "Please sister, you and brother are ok," Zai Zai said with his two palms still touching "Do you have anything to do with this?" I asked her seriously "Don't leave me, I don't know what Mommy will say," he answered "Can I talk to Ali for a moment" I stood up immediately and pulled him away "What, won't you object?" I said to him "They are my parents" he answered without emotion "How are you willing to marry someone you don't love?" He stared at me, I stared at him too, what is this staring contest? "You will marry me whether you like it or not" he turned his back on me "just zip your mouth I know you and Zaira have planned it, isn't this what you want" he left What does that mean? We?

"What is this, Michael?" I asked him when he gave me an invitation card. Of course I know what it is but I want to ask him if what it is really for. "Invitation card, obviously. There's a big party and you have to go." He is stuck. He just rolled his eyeballs at me. I thought at that time that he had a surprise for me and that our relationship would be fixed just for our son Lenoah, but no. I attended a party just to get hurt too much. Because it was their engagement party. At first I thought Kalezy was just joking. I also know that Michael is her boyfriend but seeing me hurt face to face is what I couldn't handle. I had a quick breakdown. “W-We still haven't fixed our past problem, Michael. I kept your son from you for two years and even though I was hurt then that you let me go, I chose to introduce you to Lenoah as his father. I'm the first one who tried to fix our relationship but... I also suffered because you don't want me anymore. I know how much I wronged you before, Michael. I'm sorry but you gonna hurt me like this face to face? Michael, w-is it really gone? Don't you really love me anymore? Are you really giving up?” "A person's feelings change, Novy, and besides, it's been a long time," he said without emotion. I smiled bitterly. He's right. A person's feelings do change. "I understand. Sorry, if I'm too naughty. I'm sorry if I'm still trying to fix our relationship because I'm just thinking about our son," I said softly. "You planned to frame me up so I can get back to you, Novy. That's what I hate the most about what you did," he said coldly. "I'm sorry... I-I made a mistake..." I once let Michael go and it still hurt me too much. But I can handle it if I let him go a second time, right? I love Michael very much. But I know a different Michael now. The Michael I loved before and I was the only one he valued but now is gone. Another woman owns his heart and it's not me anymore. "S-Sorry... I promise you... I won't... I won't tease you anymore. B-I'll just visit Lenoah at your condo---" "We will also move to our subdivision." I quickly wiped my tears. It dripped one after another and my chest was tight. “In that case. S-We'll just meet outside," I said and sniffed even more. It's not just my tears, but also my cold. "I'll just give you a schedule." I nodded. "S-Alright, ah. I-I'll go first,” I said goodbye and because my knee was getting soft I almost lost my balance. He quickly grabbed my elbow to support me but I immediately pulled my hand back. "I'm fine..." I said and raised my hand and started walking. “New...” When I got out of the hotel, I just laughed so hard. Even the weather seems to be keeping up with my disappointment and sadness. It is raining heavily and the wind is also very cold. My tears are also pouring and it really doesn't stop. "New! Are you insane?!” my cousin Devillaine yelled at me. When he saw me walking and making it rain. "New!" “H-Leave me alone, Devi. I-I just want to... get wet in the rain.” "You are really crazy! You know you get a fever easily when you get wet in the rain!” He shouted at me while pulling my arm but I struggled. "I told you to let me go!" “New...” "N-I'm in pain, Devi... I-I just want... to forget even for a moment." "Then I will take you to the bar. I'll go get drunk with you if you want. Don't do this, Novy...” he said and just hugged me. I just cried on his shoulder. *** The news about their engagement party was hot and even though Michael and Kalezy were not engaged then he always went to the gym where the tennis players practiced. He does the same to me. He will watch our practice, even if it takes him an hour, he doesn't get bored waiting for me, but now... He's watching a different girl. Because I got wet from the rain last night, I did have a fever, but I also went in because we had practice. Our competition was coming up again but when our coach noticed that I was not myself, he gave me a break. I'm still wrapped in my varsity jacket and I'm really cold. "New! Your pogi boyfriend is looking for you. Cry without seeing you!” my tennis player friend also told me. Even though I was sick, I still smiled. Because I know who he is referring to as my boyfriend. It's my son. The net was blocking between us but that was often the scene between the two of us. He was holding it so I knelt down so that I could face his face. His eyes and nose were red. "Hi. Are you looking for me, babe?” I asked him and he snorted. “M-Mommy...” "Why is my boyfriend crying?" I asked him softly and he was about to touch both of my cheeks when I avoided it. "Your girlfriend is sick, babe. Kisses, hugs and touches are not allowed because Mommy's trying baby might get infected." "I just miss my girlfriend," he said and chuckled softly. "I miss you too, my baby." "You're close, Mommy. You will transfer your fever to me and then I will transfer it to Daddy." “Oh. You're with your girlfriend's rival again, hmm?” "Mommy..." "I love you,
I'm at my new friend Jaelly's house today and I'm sitting on the couch. She left me for a while to get a snack. But there's someone who pulled my skirt. I didn't notice it at first but it kept dragging so I've got it upside down. My eyes widened when I saw her. A little girl who is so pretty, curly hair and greasy eyelashes. Then her eyes were gray, innocent and pure. Her nose is pointed, her cheeks and lips are all red. “Oh, hello. You're such a beautiful kid!” I said astonishingly and out of excitement I picked her up to sit her on my lap. I kissed her on the cheek and hugged her tightly. I felt his head leaning against my chest. She smells so good. I untied to see her reaction and what a cutie! His eyes are closed and it seems he is immediately comfortable with me. “Oh, Dad!” he shouted suddenly and pulled my sleeves again. Her lips, she pointed somewhere. "Dada... Hmm, up Dada," she said. "Are you looking for your Dada? Let's go then," I said and picked him up. I saw the sparkle in his eyes and he smiled sweetly at me. “Mommy?” “Oh, little cutie. I'm not your Mom," I said and she snorted. "Okay..." So obedient. He was not a demanding child and did not even cry. "Are you Jaelly's younger brother? What's your name, sweetie?” I asked her but she didn't reply. When we finally got to the stairs, he let me down so that's what I did. He grabbed my two fingers and pulled me again. I chuckled softly and just let him go. He pointed to the door. "Open," he said. Her voice is naturally soft and gentle. I opened it because he wanted me to do it and I just laughed softly because he pulled me in too. His small hands were pointing at something again, accompanied by his snoring, so I followed that with my eyes. My heart beat even faster when I saw a man lying on a big bed. It doesn't have a top, it's like it's shivering in the cold? The girl got on the bed, I was supporting her so she wouldn't fall and enter the man's blanket. I was worried about what it would do. "Dada... Dada..." the girl called softly. "H-Hon... G-Get out, please... M-My fever is Dada... C-Call your Tita Ly," he said softly, his voice also hoarse but still snuggled up to her side the child. He hugged her left arm and leg. He even kissed her cheek. "Hon..." "Dada, wake up... Mommy is here..." she whispered and glanced at me. Eh? I'm not his Mommy. He just brought me here. Wait... Dada? Is this man her father? Aunt Ly? So, are they father and son? But who is this man then? Jaelly's older brother? “Hon... Go... C-Call your Aunt Ly...” "Mommy is here, Dada... She's here!" he insisted and beckoned to me as if he wanted me to come to him. A-I don't want to! He's just a kid! Even though he's cute, I don't want to follow him because his daddy is the one in bed. Maybe his Mommy will catch me here and wonder why I'm here. "Uhm..." I walked towards the door hoping to leave but he suddenly shouted. "Mommy!" "I'm not your Mom!" I also shouted back at him so the man woke up completely. My eyes widened when I saw his stony body. Because he did get up. He looked at me without emotion. My heartbeat suddenly accelerated when our eyes met. "Who are you?" he asked, his voice cold as ice. "It's my Mommy, Dada... Mommy, come here..." I shook my head. "I-I'm not your Mom..." I said but before I could turn the doorknob, my hair stood on end when someone hugged me from behind. My eyes widened when he suddenly picked me up. I was so shocked that I couldn't even protest. I only realized one thing. I was lying on the bed and he hugged me tightly and the child was still very happy. God! What the hell?! Why is he acting so fast?! Is he a vampire?
"You didn't remember your name, little kitten?" the man with hazel eyes asked me that. I was lying on the bed and he was leaning on me so I could clearly see his beautiful features. His face is also close to mine. He had a square face that fit his undercut hair with a mix blonde and black color. His beautiful hazel eyes are so cold and blank. His long pointy nose, and his naturally reddish lips that are partly a bit. He's such a beautiful man but he doesn't have any facial expression, an emotionless guy. However, I can still feel my heart beating fast and his dark aura still gives me shivers. "Answer me, kitten," he complained that his voice was cold as ice but very husky. I close my eyes when I feel his gentle caressing my cheek. I feel an electric voltage coming from his hot palm. I was flattered when I remembered something. He is... This guy looks like... "Xenus..." I uttered his name and for the first time, I could read his emotions, shocked. "How about your name, hmm?" he asked me again. I shook my head because I can't even remember my name. How come that I forgot the most important things in my life? My name...and a blank memories... “You are Cashren Jhed Lindbergh, the beloved wife of Xenus Maicodel Levanna-Lindbergh. My kitten, you just woke up today after the comatose state. Welcome home, love,” he whispered as he sealed me with a kiss. But he's fake... He told me that we are married. That we both got married because we love each other. I trusted too much because I believed that he was my husband even though I only remember a few things about him. But as the days pass and the year draws to a close, I gradually remember my past that he intended not to remind me of. He just used me...he just made me a...judgment... He also made me believe that he loved me very much but that was not the truth for the past four years. He's been in love with someone else and that's what I can't accept too much. He lied to me... I gave my trust and myself to him because I thought he was real but he wasn't. When I woke up from comatose, and after my therapy... She got me pregnant right away. We gave birth to twins but while he was missing from the mansion, he went to see his woman and that woman was legally adaptive to my children. Xenus meant it, because he was a heartless. I fell to the floor because I felt intense pain in my senses again. I've been suffering from my migraine but he didn't even know my situation. "Jhed!" I was relieved when I heard his voice and I immediately felt his presence enveloping me. He grabbed my arm but I quickly struggled. "Don't touch me!" I hissed him. "What... What happened?" he asked me worriedly. Even though I really see that I will not affect him anymore. “My love...” “Stop calling me that, Lindbergh. I'm not your love. It's Margaret," I said emphatically and he cupped my face. I hit his shoulder only for him to let me go. "Jhed, you're my love... I love you," he said and firmly kissed my senses but I hit his chest. “Stop! I don't want... I don't want to be with you anymore because I'm not you... You're not my real wife! I will still be back. I will return to where I came from...” "You... You're going to leave me, us?" How about them, our kids, Jhed?” he asked me. “Even if I wanted to include them...you know that's not possible! Because I am not their legal mother, even though I am the twins' biological mother! You are so... You are so heartless, Lindbergh... That's why stop pretending that you cared for me!” "That's not true, love..." "I'm leaving. You will take care of them. After all...the girl you love is already there," I said calmly and gathered all my strength to push her away from me. I stood up and walked towards the door. I can't be with the man who cheated on me anymore, no matter how much I love him, it's still irrelevant. He hurt me too much. "You're not going somewhere, my kitten," he said coldly and I was even more shocked when he quickly faced me. He effortlessly slung me over his shoulder and threw me on our bed. I was about to get up but he quickly passed me. My eyes widened when he tore my dress and planted a firm kiss on my lips, covering my left breast with one of his palms. My tears immediately flowed because of what I thought he would do to me. “Stop it... Stop doing this, Xenus!” I shouted and tried to move my face away from him. He ignored me. He quickly removed his necktie and tied it around both of my wrists, which were above my head. "My love... You can't go... You can't leave me like this... You know that I'm in love with you...
