All of me (Part of Me Book 2)

Chapter 9

“I forgot how to use my heart that’s why I’m frozen to the pain, and everyday I’m stopping my heart from beating again for the ones that should’ve stayed.”

[Xyril's POV]

"Mom... Wake up.."

"Hmmm."

"Mom...??"

My Zen is the sweetest morning greeting that I've ever received everytime I opened my eyes to wake up for a brandnew day..

"H..hey.." And I scoffed.

She laughs with it.

"Why woke up so early, darling?"

"It's a'ready 9 mom.. Breakfast ready..."

"Hmmm.." I tugged her up and hug her

"Baby.. Mom loves you soooo much!"

"Mom... I love you too.. Sooo much!"

She giggle by the way she enacts my last words.

"They said you're cute and pretty.. And nice.. And.. Sweet.."

"They? Who are those "they"?" I curled my brows for confusion. My Zen got friends without my knowings?

Yeah right, how can I forget? It's been days and I'm busy as ever. Akala ko pa naman nakatakas ako sa Taiwan. -_-

"My friend."

"No darling.. It should be "Friends" suppose it has a letter 's' at the end since it's plural..."

"Why mom?"

"Because you uses "they", and that's plural"

My Zen nodded and she's smart to think that she got it but I know sooner than later she again will forget it. No doubt. She's just a 3-yr-old kid.

"Then maybe I should rephrase what I just said.."

Huh?

"He said.. Yes. It must be.. He said.. --"

"H-he? Who is that 'he' ??"

"My friend mom!! Tito Henson!!"

Flushes.

"Mom?! Are you sick?!"

"Zens.. Aren't you going down to eat?"

A cold voice entered the room.. It was Kier..

"Dad!! I think mom's sick!"

Oh no..

I looked at Kier.. It's been days and he still have an issue with me.

"B-bakit..?"

Yet he still cares for me..

Whatever it is that I felt a while ago subsides when Kier entered the room..

"Her cheeks turned red!"

"O-okay ka lang ba?" He managed to ask me with coldness on his voice.

He's still mad at me.. I know.. I didn't make a respond so he turn to Star..

"Just when I mentioned tito Henson's name!!"

Damn.

Why kids don't lie?

Because they know nothing.

Now what?

Kier's glare are killing me now. I can see pain through them.
