Chapter 57

Sunday morning, I was not at work and so was Zari. But Dash has to go to the hacienda now because grandpa is calling.
I woke up early to cook her breakfast, Zari's still sleeping on her room. And Dash is taking a bath now.
When I finished cooking breakfast, I first washed the utensils I used in the sink until I felt an arm curl around my waist again. I"m used to Dash doing this every morning.
"Can't wait to marry you ..." he whispered while kissing my cheek. I smiled. Ever since we became friends, Dash has never missed a day that he doesn't make me feel that he loves me. Every day, he would always say how much he loves me.
"Eat up, mister." While still laughing.
"It's nice to hear, wife again." I pinched his waist so he did nothing but let go. I finally finished the wash and faced him.
"Sus, I never thought you were that horny!" I squeezed both of his cheeks. He was offended by what I did.
"Tsk." That's when your grandfather becomes rude again.
"Bat again hmm?" I kissed him on the cheek.
"Zarius will be here today right?" I frowned at his question. I sighed heavily.
"Yeah, but he's with Sherina. Are you doubting my love for you, grandpa Dash?"
"Tsk no, but Zarius has Vien." I saw the pain in his eyes, I came closer to him and touched both his cheeks.
"You're overthinking again, you're the one I love Dash. You see he loves someone else too, do you want us to have a closure so you don't feel like that anymore?" I kindly question.
"Yes and I want you to tell him everything, Vien. The truth, he deserves the truth." I immediately let go of his hug but he immediately returned.
"There's no need to tell him the truth, Dash. I'm fine now, I don't have anything to do with him anymore. The only consequence between the two of us is that it's just Zari."
"Please ... I trust you, Vien. K-just in case you still love her I'm ready to tolerate, so that you can give the whole family to Zari ---" I immediately squatted down and kissed her on the lips.
"Stop that nonsense, Dash! I don't love him anymore, Zari and I are complete right? You are the one I love!"
"Yeah for now its okay for Zari, how is Zari's future? When he thinks about it, he has two Vien families."
"Dash, aren't you the one who said every day we will make Zari understand the situation. We both know how good my daughter is, she likes you even though you fight often okay? Because I'm sure you're the one I love." I looked into his eyes while saying that.
"Promise me, you would never hurt me Vien." He raised both hands and touched my cheek.
"Promise, mister." Then I nodded my head. He smiled and kissed me on the forehead.
"I love you so much Vien, I can't stand when Zari loses you in my life."
"I love you too, we will never be lost." Then he hugged me.
As much as he wants me to talk to Zarius, I will tell him the truth. I don't care what his reaction will be, Dash trust me.
I thought I would serve him but he made me sit down, piled the dish and rice on my plate.
"What the hell am I there for!" I would have stood up when he sat me down again.
"You're the one who cooks, I'm the one now." I couldn't help but laugh when he managed to wink at me. Seriously ready to change your grandfather!
After we ate together I took him out of the house,
"Be careful." I said, he nodded and kissed me on the lips.
"I love you, wife. Wait for me and Zari?"
"Yes, I love you too." Then I followed him with the look that was already riding his wangler. I still didn't enter until I lost sight of his car.
I was about to enter when I saw Stacy walking towards it.
"Stacy!" He turned around, still frowning that he didn't greet me. There is no day yet but gaga is wearing a hat.
"Miracle we don't have Paris?" Pang asar ko.
"Maybe in hell already." He promised coldly.
"Lq are you again?" He smiled at my question. I didn't let her enter the house but gaga kept entering the house.
When we were both sitting on the couch I asked him.
"What brought you here early in the morning, señorita?"
"Nothing, I just got bored."
"You'll be bored in the morning, when I found out you'll wake up at noon ah? Maybe Paris has already left and you're bored." I immediately laughed when he looked at me.
"That's good then!"
"Have you eaten?" I will ask.
"I have no appetite." I just nodded in response to him.
"Anyways that's why I'm here, I would like to inform you that the Girls are still looking for you." I immediately looked at him.
"H-ha? H-aren't they mad at me?"
"What would you expect? You just runaway without explanation, they jump because of happiness then?" I blinked.
"How did they know that?"
"Who's a fool to like Zyke's post? You haven't used social media in a long time right? So they thought you were still alive."
Oh God Right!
"W-where are they now?"
"Probably with their own family." Then he shrugged.
"They are setting the date to meet you, maybe you have plans to show up, right?" I nodded slowly, there really is. But I wouldn"t have thought it would be this fast.
Gaga didn't say goodbye and suddenly stood up and went up the stairs.
"I'm taking a nap, I would lay beside Zari." I didn't answer and just let him go up.
When I stood up I heard a car outside, I guess its them.
That's why I came out smiling, in case I see Sherina, I think Sherina and I are pretty close.
When I got out, he was also when Zarius got out of the car with donuts. Alas, when Dash sees him, he will be angry!
I frowned when I saw she was alone, where's Sherina?
His forehead was still furrowed while carrying it.
"I-I'll help you ..." he didn't answer and avoided choking and went straight into the house.
Ediwag! Attitude!
I rested in the air and just followed him. Maybe its the right time to talk to him while Zari's still sleeping.
When I entered, he first put what he was carrying on the center table, only now I noticed that he was wearing only a tshirt and pants.
Maybe he doesn't come either, it's a good thing the media didn't follow him.
"Where's Zari?" He asked. He just stood there and looked around.
"Ah still asleep." My answer.
He didn't speak anymore.
"I-I'll leave you first, free yourself, Zari will wake up soon." I just promised even though I knew he didn't care. Then turn away
"Why did you do that?" Even faintly I heard his question. I stopped walking but I still didn't look at him, what was he saying?
So I couldn't help but look at him, he was looking straight at me now.
I could not read his eyes.
"What, why?" I'm confused question.
"Why didn't you tell me the truth, Ysla?" I don't know but my heart pounded again when he mentioned my name. No! Stop it, Ysla!
"W-what are you saying? You can correct me." I was nervous when he started to step closer to me but I didn't move.
"Kim didn't pay you, tell me what happened then tangina!" I closed my eyes when he shouted. I'm scared of him too. But be still Ysla!
"What! I-I can't understand you! How many times have I told you that Kim didn't pay me! And if she pays me I will never accept! Do you believe that?" I tried to be firm in front of him, his shoulders were rising and his jaw was tightening.
"B-why are you always keeping a secret? The more opportunities you have to tell me the truth Yslavien ..." his voice weakened.
"What for? There's nothing Zarius can do anymore. The satin is over, I finished it then, didn't I? I left you then because your uncle paid me, didn't I?"
"Please just tell me the truth now, I want to hear it from you. This time with you." I took a deep breath, isn't that right? Remember Ysla, no matter what her reaction may be, you already have Dashiel who loves you so much! Someone loves you, you're just going to tell him the truth and that's all.
I walked away from him and turned away.
"L-I stayed away then because I found out I was pregnant, Zar."
"Why didn't you tell me?" He asked weakly.
"I don't want to ruin your dreams! Because I know in the times you know you'll let go of everything, Zar. And I don't want to, didn't I say then that your dream is what I always think about."
"But you were the dream ..." I ignored what he said.
"I was scared, I was cowardly. So I walked away. I have no intention of telling you the truth, Kim also knows that. She is pushing me away from you, I don't know what reason she had for lying to you. But do you know how I felt then ? "
"K-kim did that?" She whispered.
"I was also hurt then, if your uncle doesn't accept you anymore, what about your other family? It hurts me that he doesn't want our son. You don't know what I went through then, Zar. I let go of everything, I sacrificed. I almost lost everything, I left the life I had because I had no other thought but your welfare. "
"We're on the same room." My forehead furrowed.
"So you don't have the right to question me as a mother, my sacrifice was good, wasn't it? You reach all your dreams." I felt my tears dripping. I hope this is the last time I will cry in front of him.
"I-I don't know, Ysla. You never trusted me. I can combine my responsibilities and my career, right? You're wrong. You never thought about my well-being. Because if you really love me, you'll understand that I feel it but what did you do? Did you leave me? "
I saw the pain in his eyes.
"Please stop going back to then, we have her alive now. You have Sherina and I have Dash now."
"How's Zari?" Her face softened.
Why are you making the situation worse, Zarius? I thought you moved on? How is Sherina?
"Every day we explain to Zari the situation Zar."
"Fuck! You'll never know that! Our son is still young so now he still understands what if ----"
"Enlighten me! What do you want to happen? You already know the truth right? What else? Please I'm begging you, let's stop this quarrel, let's get along for our son. We have him alive. now. You love Sherina don't you? I love Dash too. " He averted his eyes.
Why is your head still so stubborn?
"I'm sorry ..." I was surprised by what he said.
"A-what did you say?" I turned to him, he looked at me. I don't know, now I can see the flesh of his eyes.
You're messing with my brain, Zarius! Why are you like that? Why are you so selfish? I don't want anyone to get hurt.
After our conversation I chose to make a fuss. I just locked myself in my room, Zari even came to me but I didn't want to go out and see Zar.
"Ysla you can't be confused by how you feel! You love Dash! And you promised him!" I rolled around in bed because of my frustration.
I just went down when Zari knocked on my door saying that Zarius was coming home.
"Mama's coming!" I shout.
"Faster mom!" So I hurried out, I caught up with my son who was waiting for me outside. He took my hand and we went down at the same time. By the afternoon, I also fell asleep earlier. Stacy just brought me to my lunch.
"Mama do you have fever po ba? You locked yourself in your room po eh. And papa keep asking me if you're really okay."
"It's okay mom, baby." I replied, as we descended we caught up with Zarius who was sitting on the couch and ready to actually leave. I averted my eyes when he turned to look at me.
"Let's go mama, let's bring papa outside!" I just nodded to my son, I feel like Zarius isn't taking his eyes off me.
We accompanied eya all the way outside.
"Bye papa po! Take care po ah?" Zarius knelt down to kiss my son on the forehead.
"I will, I love you too." After he kissed Zari's forehead, he stood up and I averted my eyes when he turned to me again.
"I'm leaving." He kindly promised, I just nodded. It was only then that I finally breathed a sigh of relief when his car got stuck. Gosh!
I've been bored in the office before, I'm also annoyed because when I call Dash he doesn't answer! Even Zari!
I just called Stacy.
"Oh?" I was embarrassed because even on the phone, a to was still rude.
"Where's Dash and Zari?"
"Do I look like I know?" I can't believe this one became my friend! Gosh worthless talking!
"Tsk. Nasty!" Alas, he really dropped the call.
I've done what I have to do so I'm a little bored, sometimes when I have time or I'm bored. I always call Dash just to hear his voice but now I'm not happy that he didn't answer my call before!
"Come in." I said when there was a knock.

I saw Gina with a big smile on her lips.
"Why are you smiling like that?" I will ask.
"Why is your face like that maam?" I just blushed.
"Come on maam! I'm sure you won't be sad anymore!" I was surprised when he pulled me from the chair.
"Wait where are we going ?!"
"Secret mom!" When we got out I was surprised when other employees seemed to be waiting for me.
"What's up?" They were all smiling at me.
Even though I was upset with what was happening now, I tried to calm down even though I was nervous! I looked to the front as the employees began to disperse. My eyes widened as it spit out Dash with Zari! Zari is holding balloons while Dash is holding cake.
"What's up?"
"Yieeee kinikilig si maam!"
"Sana ol mam!"
I didn"t listen to their side comments. But I just focused on Dash smiling as he approached me.
I frowned when they were both in front of me.
"Oh bat that's the face wife?"
"Mama we planned it!" Ani is Zari.
"You're annoying, I'm worried you're not answering my call!" He laughed, he even kissed me on the forehead.
"I'm sorry ma'am, it's on a plan." I just stared, he suddenly turned the cake to me. My eyes widened at what was written!
"Will you marry me, Vien?" At the same time, he said no, so did the employees.
"Oo na yan si maam!"
"Yieeee, I hope so!"
"Maam say yes! You look like a gappy family!"
I looked at Dash with sweat still on the side of his forehead, like a fool obviously nervous at what he was doing. I couldn"t help but be happy, because finally Dash really is.
What I felt for Zar then, maybe I just felt sorry not for him but for myself. Now with my heart, Dash will be the one to choose.
"Yes! I will marry you, Dash."
