Chapter 1

"At some point, you have to realize that some people can stay in your heart but not in your life" -unknown


——

4 years ago, I was miserable. Not totally miserable but I can say that I am happy.

And right now, I am not miserable but I am not happy either. All I learned from all of it was you can't always get what you want in life. You have to sacrifice something to gain another something.

4 years ago, I left him. I let him go because I know and I can feel that he's suffering because he chose me over his Mom. And because I love him, I don't want him to suffer like that.

His mom doesn't like me, or let's say hate, no, I think it's loathe because I am poor but what she didn't know is that I'm not poor, but not rich either. But my parent's are rich. They own a lot of hotel in and out of America. I didn't tell Mark or anyone about my real identity because I wanted to be known as Sofia Janine, the independent, rather than Sofia Janine, the daughter of one of the richest family in the country.


Another fact that his mother hate about me is that when she ask him to chose between me and her, Mark chose me.

And It flashback again.


———-

"Why, Mark? Why? I have given you everything and this is what Im gonna get in return?" Mark's mom is being hysterical. She's shouting and crying at the same time.

"Sheena, calm. Mark's old enough to decide for himself." Mike, Mark's dad said to Sheena, Mark's mom. Mike supported my relationship with Mark. He never interferred with it.

"Mark, you need to choose. Either it's me or her. You know that you will never have a good future with her. She's poor and she will only make you poor as well. She's just a gold digger bitch, Mark. Listen to to me. I'm your mother. Choose!" "His mom said and started dragging Mark on her side.

"No, Mom. It's you who needs to choose. Either you chose to accept me and Sofia or let your only son away from you. Because if it's me whose going to choose, we all know that it's always gonna be her. Now choose mom." Mark said and he dragged me inside his car and we went to his condo unit.

Mark is silent and I hate it. I don't want him to keep quiet because if he does, I know that he's hurt with the fact that he has to chose between me and his mom.

Mark and I have been married legally. It was just a civilian wedding because his mother doesn't approve but since we're already on the right age, he's 22 and im 20, we got married. Before we got married, we were engaged for 6 months and before that we we're on a relationship for 2 years and 3 months.

And I didn't told him about my family ,the fact that my family's rich because I just dont want. My parents are in Amsterdam, with my grand parents while me, I'm here in America.

"Are you okay? You know that you don't have to do what you did a while ago. I can always accept the fact that she will never like me as your wife and I don't care about it as long as we're together." I said and I kissed him deeply. I want to make love to him right now. For the last time.

He kissed me back and his hand started roaming around my body. We went to the room and he lay me down on the bed. He started kissing me again and I felt his hand remove my clothes. His kisses went down on my neck and his hands found my breast and he started massaging it. His kisses went down again and it reached my nipples and he started sucking it.

He started removing his clothes and he went on top of me. He Kissed me once again and I felt his hand on my core.

"M-mark... Ughh.." I can't help but moan as I felt his finger entering my core. It went faster and I came.

"I love you so much, Sofia." He said and he inserted his manhood on my core. This is not our first making love. We never had sex ever. We make love because every time that we do this, all I can feel is love and tenderness.

His thrust became deeper and faster and after a minute, we both came. He started cuddling me. He's always like that.

When I felt his breathing is already fair and good, I got up and fixed my self and went to my closet. I took my bags and baggage and fill it with my clothes.

When I'm done, I took a piece of paper and a pen.

"I love you so much." I wrote it and kissed Mark for the last time before I went outside and hail a cab.


————


Every time I remember Mark, that is the only scene that I remember.

I love him so much but I know he's hurt because he's torn between me and his mom.

I don't know what happened to me that night but I know that what I did is for the better.

My parents knew about what happened to me and my marriage but I told them that I can handle it. They help me. I went to Boston to start a new. I build my self again and I know that I'm already good. I found some friends there who also help me. I work in an office here and it helped me a lot.

My friends here in Boston doesn't know anything about my past. I even used my name, Sofia Janine Gutierrez, rather that with Mark's Last name.

There is this time when they we're talking about this handsome guy on the magazine, who happens to be Mark. It was about him being a successful business man with their own company.


It hurts to be here

I only wanted love from you

It hurts to be here

What am I gonna do?


I guess letting him go did a great thing.

But after all this things, I can say that I am happy. So happy because Mark gave me my angel, James Marko, my son.

Marko, right now is the only the reason why I still keep on fighting. I just love him so much.



I may lose something but I earned another. Another blessing. Another love. Another hope.

Out of breath, I am left hoping someday I'll breathe again

I'll breathe again"
