Twisted Reincarnation

"Mom, please!" I can feel desperation on Shawn's voice. His mother just cried silently. I couldn't speak. I could have but I don't have the rights.

"If you walk out with her that means you chose her. If you choose her then I won't undergo surgery." Tita Amellia stood her ground. Nobody speaks after that. They are just waiting for Shawn's decision.

He sigh deeply as he tighten his hands on mine. I know. I know he'll choose me but I don't want him to regret this moment. I know he'll choose me but it's very hard for him to do so.

I remove my hands and look at him. Nagtataka syang tumingin sa akin. I gave him a smile and caress his arms.

"I'll go home first baby. I know you want to stay with your mom and you should."
He look at me with relief and nod as he hugs me.

"Thank you, baby. You won't leave me right?" he whispered.

"What are you talking about? I'm the one who should be worried." I jokingly whispered back but I know it might really happen. Humarap ako sa magulang nya bago nagsalita.

"Ma'am, Sir Im really sorry I didn't mean to upset you in any way. I sincerely pray for your recovery Ma'am." I slightly bow before I leave the room. Shawn want to accompany me out but I refuse him.

I feel like I'm really gonna cry. Naglalakad na ako papuntang elevator ng makarinig ako ng yabag sa aking likuran. I look back and roll my eyes. It's Georgina. She's wearing a delighted look as she walk towards me.

"How does it feel? Knowing that they'll never like you." She said haughtily as she gave me a victorious look.

"Whatever, even if it goes your way. You'll never have Shawn the way I have him." I smile sweetly at her but she just gave me a downward smile.

"Maybe? Maybe not hahaha, who knows. I don't care about such trivial matters as long as I have him." She's really fuck up in the head. I just ignored her.

"You should have seen the look on your face when they chase you out. It's really what I expected." She laugh menacingly. Wait, what does she mean?

"Are you the one who sent me the text message?" I asked.

"Damn right, I did! Hahaha" she's really having fun about this.

"Crazy!" I said as I turn my back on her. Pinigilan nya naman ako kaya pairap akong humarap sa kanya.

"What?" I irritatingly asked.

"There's more to come. I hope you last long." She gave me a sweet smile as if she's saying a good thing.

I removed her hand and smile back,
"You don't need to worry about that. But you know what? I pity you. This is really pathetic. You don't even have a slightest decency on you." Her smile dropped at napalitan iyon ng matalim nyang tingin.

"Who are you to pity me? You lowly woman!"  I gave her a smile too.

"Anyway, enjoy this for as long as you can but you know who am I to him." With that I left her. Nakatulala lamang ako buong byahe pauwi. This day is fucking tiring. Why can't I be happy?

Morning came and all I had was Shawn's messages. He didn't come home. I sigh as I open the messages. He's apologising kasi hindi sya makauwi dahil sa sitwasyon ng mama nya. I reply and assured him na it's fine. I understand.

I have to understand.

A few days go by and still ayaw pa rin magpa opera ng mama ni Shawn. I know na dahil yun sa akin, because Shawn won't break up with me.

I sigh as I play with my drink. Kagagaling lamang ni Shawn sa condo ko but he have to go back to the hospital agad because his mother is being stubborn. Ayaw nitong uminom ng gamot. This is really frustrating. I know that her mother hates me pero to the point talaga na icocompromise nya ung sarili nya para lang mawala ako.

I open my phone and listen to Shawn's voicemall.

'Hi baby kakarating ko lang ulit sa hospital. My mother is doing good but she still needs an operation. She's very stubborn.' I can feel the frustration and tiredness from his voice.

'Baby, babawi ako sa iyo but I have to go now. I love you.' I smile and record a voicemail for him.

'I understand baby, I love you too.'
I puff my chest as I stand up. I need to do something. Right, I am something.

Shawn's parents doesn't like me because they think of me as a mere model. I am more than that. How did I forget this. I am Amanda's adopted daughter I have billions, literally. If they like Georgina because of her rich background well I can rival that.

I won't let Shawn handle all the burden in this obstacle. Even if I hate being the so called heiress of Amanda Ainsworth. I'll gladly do this for us.

I finish my drink as I dial Secretary Jones' account.

"Good evening, Madame." She said with so much professionalism in her voice. Damn, all for love. All for us. I took a deep breath and compose myself. This will not be an easy decision.

"Good evening, Mrs Jones. I'm gonna take over my position." There was a short time of silence before she speaks again.

"Pardon? Am I hearing this right, Madam?" I can almost hear her sobbing. Is she crying? That strict lady is crying?

"Yes, I am." I said with conviction.

"Alright, Madam. I'll quickly arrange all necessary." There's a hint of joy and excitement in her voice.

"Thank you." I said politely.

"No, Thank you so much. The late Madam Ainsworth would be so glad if she's still alive. You finally accept all that's yours." I can't bear another reminisce about that woman so I just hang up the phone after I bid goodbye.

Right, I should have told about all of this to Shawn. I'll tell him the next time we meet. It will be my little surprise.

I smile as I walk to my bed, preparing to sleep.

Little did I know I'll be more surprise for what's about to come.

*Hello, I apologise kung ngayon lang ako nakapag update. Well, I was really busy and I forgot about this and most of what happen. I had to reread some parts.

Anyway, may nagbabasa pa ba nito? Hehe
