Strongest

042 | Boone & Brissa

BRISSA'S POV

Bo and I have been divorced for seven years when we faced the issue of Beam's pregnancy and missing lover. We started being friends after the divorce during the time Bren was sick.

Don't get me wrong, despite Bren being Bo's child with another woman, I love him like how I love Beam. It thrills me to know that he acknowledges me as his mother, though we subtly inform him of the truth but not the whole truth.

He has vague memories of how Peach treated him when she was still with him. All he remembers is a woman who was physically with him but never gave him the affection he needs. I feel for Bren, maybe because I've been longing for another child since Beam but it has really been tough for me.

I've a bad case of polycystic ovaries that despite treatments gave me a hard time conceiving. I guess I just got lucky with Beam. Other reason might be due to stress with the workload both Boone and I have.

When I caught him having an affair with Peach back then and later on found out that it has been going on for three years and there's also Bren, I feel like my heart has been ripped out. He one how much I longed for another child.

I know Bo and he wouldn't intentionally do that but the trust has been broken. He broke me but I have to be strong for Beam. I know how hurt my baby was during the divorce procedure. It took me a while to be friendly with him again.

Since the divorce, Beam has been distant to both of us. He doesn't initiate any conversation with us unless his Dad and I initiate it. And then he met Bren. At first, he was so cold with him and then he warmed up to him. Despite still being silent around his younger brother, he looks after him.

And then this shit happened with Tharit. Yes, I had a one off with him but that doesn't mean I started dating him. Bo and I, we led the same lives after the divorce. We fuck and leave but never commit. Never the same person so I don't know where the hell that man got the idea.

Then I met Forth's parents and his mom was so taken in with Beam and Bren. She literally begged me and Bo to have both boys staying with her that we just relented. Turns out they were content with just having Forth around and like us, they weren't blessed with other children.

Since I, Bo and the Jamornhum couple started hanging around to focus on Beam, my ex-husband and I became closer. Before I knew it, I was looking forward to going home to the Jamornhums to see my boys and Boone every weekend.

BOONE'S POV

I know I hurt Bree so much when I wronged her. I accepted the fact that I could never have her back, not even as a friend but fate thought otherwise. She became fond of Bren and loved her like her own child.

I could never ask for more. I knew she was the perfect woman for me back then and it was because of a mistake I allowed to prolong that caused me my marriage. The first night Inhad with Peach was a terrible mistake. I was so drunk and she took advantage of me. What followed was purely because of her blackmailing me.

She threatened to go to Bree and mess up with her and Beam if I don't take responsibility of what happened with us. I could've easily intimidated her with the power and status I have but I thought it was just a waste of effort. I don't feel anything towards her, not even lust.

There's only Bree for me. With Peach, she had to do a lot just to get me aroused and reach climax with her but I never had that issue with Bree. I won't make excuses for what happened. I'm just a man with needs too. Bree and I have almost no time for each other but I love her. Gods, I loved her then and I still love her.

Beam hated me when we went through with the divorce and I don't blame him. I hated myself too. I try to make it up to him but I only he is only reminded whenever he sees Bren around. I guess I was over the moon when I saw Beam caring for Bren. I love them both equally.

I felt like I was slapped by a sumo wrestler when I found out about Beam's condition. He's pregnant and his boyfriend is missing because of Bree's one offs. Bren even knew more than Bree and I. Talk about being hated.

I know I've got to work on my relationship with my eldest. It can't stay that way. I tried spending more time with him, even if it meant going home to the Jamornhum residence. Bren had to stay back with Bree during weekdays since he has classes and goes with her every weekends to the Jamornhums.

Ever since we focused on Beam due to his depression, Bree and I became closer. We started hanging out together when Ria and Jed takes over the boys and pamper them. I missed being this close to her.

It was a good thing Jed was there to handle things with Tharit, else I would've murdered the man while asleep. He thinks so highly of himself that even if Bree slept with him once he assumed to be in a relationship with her and even has the guts to try and manipulate Beam.

If I didn't honour my oath as a doctor I swear, I'd already sedated him and cut him in several places just to wake him up so he could feel the pain. Once he heals, I'll slice him up while awake and drown him in chlorine solution. If he still survives that, then maybe I'll just chop him to pieces and have him burried in an unknown land.

In one of the nights that we were at the Jamornhums, Bree and I were drinking whiskey to drown our worries away. How I ended up in bed with her I'll never know but I'll forever be grateful since I got her back since then.

It was a surprise to us that she became pregnant a few months after. We were both doing it casually but never with others since that fateful night. We talked about it and agreed to be a couple again minus the marriage. We now have three blessings binding us together, Beam, Bren and Bea.

We may have drifted apart for sometime but we've found our way back to each other's arms. Our marriage may have been broken but I will do my best to ensure to never repeat the same mistake and to always be on guard. Bree will always be the one for me, my best friend and my home.
