Chapter 114: The Pain Still There
Jasmine's POV
We were already in the hotel, and everyone decided to rest for tonight since we were tired from travelling. I am now in my room facing my laptop. When my phone rang. It was David. I immediately answered it.
"Hi, why are you still awake at this hour?" I asked him. We were having Face Time together.
"I can't sleep." He said, which made me chuckle.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Why? Where is Diego?" I asked him, and he showed me Diego cooking in the kitchen.
"He's cooking, Mom. I got hungry." He said while Diego was placing food on the table.
"He woke me up. He said that he's hungry." He chuckled. Both of their hair were messy.
"Why didn't you just wake up, Cherry baby? Daddy Uncle needs to rest," I told him, but he just shook his head, which I found cute.
"I want Daddy Uncle to cook for me, Mom. " He said while he was eating.
"It's okay, Jaz. I also missed cooking for him. Why are you still awake? You should be sleeping now since you travelled for how many hours." He sounds concerned, which makes me smile.
"I'll just finish this one. After that, you have to rest. You are not fully recovered yet," I told him, and he nodded like a kid.
"We will. What about you? Have you eaten dinner?" He asked me. I nodded at him.
"Mommy, when you get back, we will go on a trip, okay?" David suddenly said.
He's been really asking me to go out, but since Diego still needs to recover, we still can't go on a trip.
"Of course, when Daddy Uncle fully recovered, okay?" I told him, which made him nod.
We still talk while David is eating until he's finished.
"I'll hang up now. I'll see you guys after three days," I told them, waving my hand.
"I love you, Mom," he uttered, which melted my heart.
"I love you too, baby. "I told him before he went to the room.
"Take care there," Diego told me.
"You too. Good night. "I told him before ending the call.
I stretched out and decided to go out in the meantime to breathe fresh air. We're also near the beach so it would be relaxing. When I went out, I decided to walk at the seaside.
I sat on the sand while letting the cold breeze on my skin.
I missed this moment when I could relax hearing the noise of the waves and the wind.
I hugged myself while staring from above. The stars were shining so bright, and the moon was attracting me to stare at it.
It was dark, but there were still people here. Drinking and enjoying the night with their loved ones.
"How dare you do that?!" I turned to see who it was. It was a girl shouting at the man, and they were having love quarrels.
"I'm sorry, I was drunk okay?" He tried to help her hand, but the girl gave him a hard slap.
I like watching live movies. They even stopped in front of me. They don't care if someone is watching them.
"you kiss that bitch! Even if you are drunk, you know what you are doing!" She firmly said while pointing at him.
So that's the reason why she's mad at him. Boys will always be boys.
"I didn't mean to! I told you I was drunk!" He said, frustrated and messing up his hair.
I wanted to chuckle sarcastically. Being drunk wasn't the reason your brain stopped thinking about what was right and wrong.
This is the oldest lie that boys always reason out when their girl finds out about their shit!
"Stop it! I gave you everything I could! I even ran away from my parents and chose you, but this is all I could get from you? How dare you, Cedric! How dare you!" She turned around and ran away from him. The guy ran after her while he was calling her name.
I remember when we were at the bar
eel
when Travis kissed that girl, and Stacy saw him. He was telling me that he was willing to do everything just to get me back, but I would see
him that night kissing random girls.
That was absurd. That's one of the reasons why I couldn't trust him.
"Why are you still here?" I hear his voice behind my back. I was about to stand up to leave, but he suddenly sat beside me.
"I went here to relax but then I saw you" I told him and really made my voice regretting that I went there.
"I missed the old Jasmine", he said, but I just rolled my eyes.
He told me that he could easily fool me whenever he wanted, easily hurt me, and play with my feelings.
"I would never wish to go back to the old me again," I told him.
I love the new one right now. They could never mock me or humiliate me, I could fight for myself, and I would never let anyone hurt me or even my son.
I am stronger and better now. I already see my worth. I would never question myself anymore.
"You've really changed a lot. " He said he doesn't believe what he's seeing now.
The pain and hatred you gave me and your family is the reason why I changed. How you abandoned me and betrayed me are the reasons why I have become better and more confident right now.
I really did. There's always a reason
why people change. I changed
because I needed to. I change
because have no choice but to
stand up and keep myself stronger. I
change not only for myself."
paused when I realized that was
about to tell my son.
"I'm really sorry. I know I kept saying these words, which made you
irritated and hated me even more. made a big mistake, a huge mistake. I am sorry about it. I know you won't forgive me. But I really want to
apologize to you. "He save
he's looking at the small waves.
I don't know what to say. I still couldn't forget everything. The pain is still here.
