Amellie Cruz
The trial had started a week ago. Jason has been banned of going back to Paris because of the lawsuit that we filed against him to D. L Capital.
“This is all your fault!”-a loud voice suddenly cracks the silence of this floor and everyone saw Tyra rushing towards me. I stood up.
“What are you talking about, Ms. Locke?”
“Don’t act stupid because you know what I mean!”
A loud slap falls down my right cheeks. Her fake nails even scratch my skin. I give her a death glare.
“If you are here to complain because of your case then talk to your lawyer and not to me!”
“Shut up! This is all your fault. Hello everyone, this slut had taken an opportunity to marry his so-called brother after our divorce. I bet he uses her body to sympathize him because of his heart break. And your boss? My ex-husband? I cheated on him because he is lousy in bed. You hear me?!”-she shouted. Everyone started to murmur but I knew its against her.
“You have no right to slander my husband!”-I shouted and slap both of her cheeks. She is about to slap me back but I held both of her wrist and hold them tightly. I push her to the wall.
“You stupid cheater and whore woman, how dare you telling them lies! Lousy in bed?! Huh! You’re wrong. You must be the one who is lousy in bed that is the reason why he’s not excited having sex with you!”-her eyes widened. I smirk.
“A cheater like you blame your partners but the truth is, cheaters are people who is lousy in bed and just wanted a stupid dog to scratch their itchiness. Actually, I can use this actions of yours and add this in your case. You might spend your whole life in jail. Poor you.”-I said in mocking tone.
“Shit up! Nooooo!”-she shouted. I push her sideward and she fell in the floor. I cross my arms and look at her like an alpha of an animal pack.
“Don’t try me, Tyra. I am not just any other girl whom you can bully. You picked the wrong woman. Security! Take this bitch away!”-I shouted. Security came and gran her hand and made her stood up. I turn my back to her but everyone is surprised when she kick me in my waist and that made me lose my balance. I feel on the ground and roll on the floor. My stomach hit the edge of one of the desks.
“Agh!.”-I said. Someone helps me to get up. The security forced her to kneel down and put handcuffs on her hand. She is smiling like an evil. I suddenly feel pain. Its unbearable pain.
“Oh my gosh! Mrs. Andrews, your bleeding!”
“No! No!”-I shouted. I look on my legs and I saw the blood rushing into my belly.
“Everyone, swivel chair! Let’s run Mrs. Andrews jn the hospital!”-Hazel said. They made me sit on swivel chair. She pushes it and someone opens the elevator. Dad and Ethan is in the court for the second trial. Hazel stops and look at Tyra.
“Make sure that she will be put in jail! Tell them that she attack Mrs. Andrews. This is for her as well!”
She punches her stomach and that made her scream so loudly. The pain is too much and the next thing I remember is when the lifted me in the car and everything went blank.
“No!”-I shouted and that made me woke up. My husband is holding my hand and everyone is here. Even the Banks and Brown family. I look at him and to my parents.
“Our babies? Please… they’re safe right? Right?!”
“Sweetie, relax. Take a deep breath. Have some water.”-dad said. I am trembling while drinking some water and look at them again.
“Love, the babies…?”-I said. He kissed my forehead and pinch my palm that he is holding.
“Don’t worry, they’re safe. They didn’t give up like you. It’s okay now. It’s okay…”-he mumbled. I cried and he embraces him. I feel so relieve that I can’t stop my tears from falling.
“I’m glad. I’m glad.”-I mumbled. Everyone had ask what happened and they’re happy that the four of us are safe. Asami speaks.
“That woman, I will visit her and kick her too!”
“I’ll twist her neck.”-Luna.
“I’ll hold her hand so she can’t fight back.”-Sam.
“Thank you guys. Your words made me feel better. Don’t worry, she will have a bitter taste of her medicine.”-I said.
“Take a rest foe the meantime, Amellie. You need that because you almost got into miscarriage.”
“Thank you, auntie Helena. Don’t worry. I will take two weeks leave for the meantime.”
“Good. Eat more healthy and clear all those stress. You have to strengthen your babies inside your womb. Good things they didn’t give up.”
“I am happy that they didn’t, aunt Ivy.”
“Sue that woman, Tyrone.”-uncle Tanjiro.
“I will, Tanjiro. I will.”-dad.
“She must be a lunatic woman.”-uncle Almar.
“She is. Surely is, dad.”-Peter.
“Guys, thank your for visiting me. I really appreciate it and surely the three also.”-I said and touch my womb.
“Of course, Amellie. We are all family.”-Sora. I smiled and they stayed for dinner and we all eat together. I am happy that I have them as my family. They have left and our parents decided to go home.
“Ethan, you have been silent since I woke up.”
He suddenly hug me and sob silently. I didn’t speak and let him cry until he speak to me on his own. I knew he is scared like I was. This is our first children and I knew he is also scared for my safety. When he stops crying, he held my cheeks and kissed me.
Ethan Andrews
I look at her serene face. I was scared. I have never been scared like that in my entire life. Not on that tine or even when I saw my car flipping over because of that accident. My parents came in.
“Good morning son.”-mom.
“Did she sleep again?”-dad.
“Nope. She didn’t woke up yet. Dad, mom, I need to talk to you. Can we talk outside? On the hanging garden of this floor.”
“Okay son. Let’s go then.”-mom said. We left her and went to the terrace and hanging garden of this floor of the hospital. I look on the buildings around us.
“Is there anything wrong son?”-dad.
“I was so scared dad, mom. I have never thought I’ll be scared like this. I am frustrated and I want to go in the jail right now and kill Tyra myself.”
“No son, calm down. We will file a case against her. To what she did to Amellie. Refrain yourself please? Your wife and the triplets needs you the most.”
“She almost killed the triplets and my wife, mom! If that happens?! I will surely kill her. I’ll twist her neck.”
“Son, we all do feel mad about what Tyra did. Of course it is much scarier to you and your more devastated but for now, let’s focus on Amellie’s recovery. Listen to us, okay?”-dad.
“Okay. For now, I am entrusting this matter to both of you. I’ll stay beside her and I don’t want to see that woman for the meantime.”
“Son, tell us. Did she tell you something? I mean something like your connection to her?”-mom.
“She sends me a copy of our pictures, pictures of my business in there, even pictures of me and her family. Even a marriage certificate and divorce papers.”
“What?! When?!”-mom said in horror.
“Three days ago.”-I said.
“Soon, listen to us. Maybe this is the right time that we need to tell you something. After all, we can’t hide the truth forever. But I want you to be strong, okay?”
“Tyra is indeed your ex-wife. She cheated on you with that bastard Jason. You accidentally saw them because they check-in in the same hotel where we stayed. She is the reason why we almost lost contact with you. You love her dearly, when you filed divorced, your feelings is still there.”-dad.
“And you always drink alcohols just to forget everything after you came back home. You’re drunk everyday but eventually, Amellie tried to approach you and you two became like our kids that we remembered. And then the accident came…”
“And I said; Amellie is my wife. She became my claimable wife. My memories is being distort and the dream of mine of having a great wife is what I saw to my so-called sister. It’s because when I came back, she’s change. She knew a lot about house chores, understanding, sweet and she eases the pain in my heart easily. That must be the reason why my brain created a new memories that I will believe in.”
“Ethan…what is—”
“Maybe when I came back, Amellie became a woman in my eyes. Not a sibling anymore. I have this feeling and thoughts that if Tyra had the characteristics of Amellie, our marriage won’t fall like that. I’m sorry mom and dad if I put you two in a situation like that. I knew you pulled so much strings just to follow the twisted memories that I have.”
“Don’t tell me…did you remember everything, son?”
“Yes mom. It must be three months ago. I woke up one day and I remembered everything. On the first hour, I didn’t remember my recent memories until my old and new memories blend in together.”
“We’re happy that you made it. That nothing bad happens to you like we are being afraid off if truth will suddenly speak to you.”-mom.
“Mom, dad, throughout my marriage with Amellie, the pain in my heart heals. I believe that love and marriage are still true. I only have to pick the right person. I am afraid to tell you that I remember everything because you might suggest to file a divorce to her because you still want her to be my sister.”
“Your sister, she already beg me and your mother that she can’t go back as your sister anymore. That she love you as her husband.”-dad.
“And we saw how you became more matured after you became her husband, how the two of you grow as married couple like me and your dad. And we decided that you two are better off as married couple. We won’t demand the two of you to file a divorce.”
“Thanks mom and dad. Don’t worry, we will be happy just like the two of you.”
“We know, we already see it. You should take care of her, we even give up our adoption paper to her.”
“Good thing we made through the date of marriage that you remember. For now, we can celebrate because Amellie and the triplets are safe and you also made it back, son.”-dad.
“Uhm. Dad and mom, you two are really the best. I appreciate your understanding about the situation.”
“Of course son, we love you and Amellie. We can even buy moon if that made you happy. Anything, that’s how a parent always do. But remember that you have to set limit so that your children won’t be bullies and spoiled brats.”-mom.
“Yes mom. I understand your point.”
“Don’t worry son, your mom and I will be here to guide the two of you about parenting.”
“Thanks dad.”-I said. They both smile and then we went back to her room. But we are surprised that she’s not there and her dextrose is here. It has blood on it. I saw a post it on the drawer beside the bed.
Now that your memories are back, I hope you will find your way back. Remember that I always love you not as my brother but as a man, as my husband. I love you so much, Ethan. Love, Amellie.
