This is my chance to contact Julius again. But it is still out of coverage. How many days has it been like that, what happened to him?

I had been dialing Julius's number for almost an hour when I heard a doorbell from the door.

"Is that Sean? Maybe he's done with the meeting." I opened the door smiling.

"Or did I think you would finish the meeting later?" I opened the door first. But I was very surprised when I saw Sean outside the door.

"Meeting? Are you expecting someone to come today? it asked.

"Ju-julius?! I-I thought you were in the states?

"Yeh, I just got home today. I was going to surprise you, were you surprised?" He came to me and quickly kissed my cheek. He was about to kiss me on the lips but I flinched. I turned around and headed inside.

"Yes, I was surprised. I've been contacting you for a while but your phone is out of coverage."

Yes, I killed it on purpose so you couldn't contact me. So you don't know I'm coming home. Why are you so surprised? Aren't you glad I'm here?

My chest is very tight. I can't explain my feelings because I'm so nervous. Why did Julius come home so suddenly? What if Sean suddenly appeared? I have to tell Julius everything.

"I have something to tell you," I said first.

"Me too, I have something to tell you..." Julius replied.

"Huh? What will you say?"

He came to me and held my hand.

"I have passed the business to my brother. So I'm going to stay here."

"Huh? What did your parents say?"

"They didn't do anything because I chose to live here with you. So I gave up everything I had in the states. I love you so much, Babe. You will not be far from your mother, because we will live here in the Philippines."

I couldn't be happier with what Julius said. He did that for me? But I did something bad to him. I feel guilty for what I did.

"What were you going to tell me earlier, Babe?"

I felt like I swallowed my tongue and I didn't have the courage to tell him what I wanted to say.Are you CRAZY?! Don't you see those pictures! That girl is cheating on you! said Shantel to Julius.

Julius took pictures of Sean and Aira holding hands.

"Get out!" repelling Shantel.

"What? Since when have you been a fool to women, Julius? I thought you would just take revenge? Why now does he seem to have turned you around again?"

In Julius's anger, he stood up.

"Why are you interfering?! I said a long time ago don't bother me with what I'm doing! Julius shouted with glazed eyes.

Shantel came closer and rubbed Julius's shoulder.

"What are you... why are you turning your anger on me? You know that I am only concerned about you."

"Get out! I have a lot of work today! Julius sat back in the chair and faced the computer.

"Okay. But when you need someone to talk to, I'm at home. I'm ready to warm you up again when you're cold. Shantel left Julius's office smiling.

In Julius's anger, he picked up the cup in front of him and threw it against the wall. His eyes were glaring with anger.

"Until now you're still fooling me, Aira! That's why you don't want to blame me, because of that man! I can't let you trade me, you won't do it to me! No! You should pay for what you did to me. When I'm married to you, there's nothing you can do but obey everything I want! You will be mine, Aira! You will be mine! You must serve only me for life! Julius's face was contorted with anger. He took his cell phone and dialed.

"Hello! Cancel all my meetings this week. I will go home to the Philippines tomorrow morning. After saying that, he put down the cellphone and thought deeply about his plan for tomorrow.

"What babe? Do you have something to say?

"Huh? A...e... Ju-julius, because what is there—

"My head hurts, Babe. Can I rest here first? I got dizzy during the trip and now I feel worse." Julius cut off what I was going to say.

"Si-alright, lie down on the sofa first and I'll just cook some noodles for you to sip."

Julius nodded and lay down on the sofa. I went to the kitchen and heated water in a saucepan. I'm still looking for a time to tell Julius what I want to say. But I was skeptical because it said it left everything for me. I feel guilty about what I will do.

After I cooked the noodles, I immediately brought them to Julius.

"Eat first and sip some soup." I put the food on the table and sat on the other sofa.

"Can you give me a bite? I'm really a bit dizzy." It makes me even more tender.

I sighed and was forced to come closer to him to feed him. I blew the soup first before pouring it on him. It was strange because Julius was staring at me while I was doing it.

"Why can you stare at me like that? M-Do I have dirt on my face?Nothing. I'm just beautiful to you. I was really lucky and you became my girlfriend. I'm excited for the two of us to get married."

I went to what it said. I feel guilty for what I did to him.

"Is there a problem? Why do you seem sad? Aren't you happy that I'm home? You know I think about you every night, I miss you so much."

"Maybe your Daddy will be angry with you, because you left your business because of me."

"Don't think that's the important thing, I'm here, and we're together. I could trade everything for you, Babe.

I feel like a very bad person. Julius's world will crumble once again when he finds out that I betrayed him. How do I begin to tell her everything in a way that doesn't hurt her? I don't think I would be happy if I had a burden on my chest like this.

"Ahm... Ma-I have something to tell you, but I hope you don't get angry." I told Julius bravely.

"What is that? Is there a problem?"

"W-what's the matter... Ju-julius, ma-may—" I stopped speaking when someone rang the doorbell at the door. I was suddenly nervous, my blood seemed to rise and my body was shaking with so much nervousness. It was Sean who came. How can I properly explain everything to Julius if he will know right now? Maybe the two will fight and hurt each other.

"Who is that? Are you expecting a visitor today? Julius asked.

"Huh? Nothing, I'll see! I staggered to stand up but Julius stopped me.

"I'm the only one who will open it," he said.

I didn't scream anymore because I was so nervous. This is where it all ends. In the turbulent situation of the relationship between the three of us. I feel like my face is thickening because of the tension. I can't breathe properly anymore. This is where Julius will discover everything about Sean and me.
