Walls

Chapter 11 part1

Days past by so fast.

Jace and I would make love as often as we could that I needed to take contraceptives.

We wanted to enjoy being together without unplanned pregnancy. Well at least not yet.

We somehow we're able to talk about marriage and we both agreed it wouldn't be anytime soon but definitely in the years to come.

We also agreed to save up for our future.

I feel so mushy about it.

Everything felt so real.

And yet I still feel very dreamy.

Jace is worth everything.

He is worth waiting for.

He is worth every heartache I felt before.

He is my dream guy,

and MY guy.

I wanted to save up more for our future but to be able to do so, I'll have to do my obligation for my family first.

I need more so I could save and help my family so I have decided to do overtime and do part-time.

I would go to the hospital for my duty then go to the supermarket for my part-time. On my off days in the hospital, I would babysit and/or do other part-time.

Jace knew only few of my part-time but he already disapproved. Still I insisted that it would only be for our future.

The only one who knew everything I do is Louis.

We grew really close.

We share a lot of interest.

He knew everything that happened to me.

He knew everything about Jace.

How he disapproves me doing part-time.

How he complains about how little time I give him.

Louis knows what I would always say.

Louis knows that I am doing this for my family and Jace.

Louis is my best-est (if there is such thing better than best) and probably my only confidant here.

He knew me and for me we think alike.

On the same note, I knew all his secrets.

All his frustrations

All his dilemma

He got a really deep wound behind his wonderful aura.

I understand Louis as much as he understands me.

And its frustrating to realize Louis understands me more at times than Jace.

Jace starts to question everything I do.

He demands more time than I could give him.

He acts all suspicious about everything I do and say.

The frustration soon became worse that it started to annoy me.

"I can't understand him! I am doing my best for our future but instead of encouraging me, he kept on stopping me." I said with all frustration.

"Yel.." Louis said calmly.

This is what I love about Louis. He is cool whenever I'm hot.

He is calm whenever I am not.

"He is like that because you're not telling him everything."

"If I tell him I do all these part-time, he would disapprove more and stop me from doing these." I argued.

"Yes, but at least he knows." he said  "And we know very well he cannot stop you. So why not just tell him."

"It wasn't that simple." I sigh.

"You're making it not simple." He said as he pat my head.

I hit his hand off.

"Stop petting me! I am not a dog." I glared at him.

"Sorry, you looked like one though." He laughed. "A cute little one." He said as he leaned close to my face.

I blushed.

"You're crazy! I wonder why I'm friends with you!" I laughed as I poke his head.

He laughed.

"Birds of the same feather, flocks together!" He said.

"You're not a bird! You're a... cat!" I said in loss of words to say.

"Very intellectual." He teased as he laughed.

I laughed too as I hit him playfully but hard in the arm.

"Hey!" He said touching the arm I hit.

"I'm an abused friend! I pity myself." He said.

I just laughed and pinched his cheeks.

Jace's POV

I clenched my fist hard that I almost turned white.

I saw Danielle laughing with that Louis.

They looked like a happy fcking couple.

Thousands of question flooded my thoughts.

How could Danielle possibly cheat on me?

Was I not enough for her?

Did I do something wrong?

How about the forever that we were always dream about?

Was she faking it the whole time?

Wasn't she genuinely happy when we're together?

Why?

"Why Danielle?"

I didn't noticed tears were streaming freely on my face.
