Chapter Met

The Nurse immediately suggested that Mrs. McCluskey must go to the hospital immediately will even the Nurse, was surprised and even confused, was able to calm down and ordered Zyd to lift her mother and take her to the Hospital.

Lianne was restless in her seat as she cried out loud outside the ER. It seems like a while ago, the fun they had talking to Mrs. McCluskey. She knew she hadn't put anything in her cooked food. She was still trembling as she hugged herself and waited for the news.

"Zyd!" She stood up when she saw the man come out and stand in the doorway. She looked at him and his eyes were full of pain and anger. "Zyd ..." it just drew in her throat.

"Why ?!" she was unprepared when Zyd quickly approached her and leaned hard against the wall. She was hurt but she endured the pain. “Why the fuck you poisoned my mother ?!” his voice trembled with anger and she could clearly see the pain in his eyes.

She was shocked. Poisoned? She was shaken. She could not understand it. She was suddenly confused. How poisoned? Why would she do that in the first place? "W-what are you saying ... I can't do that and you know that!"

Tears streamed down her eyes and she stared at him intently. The twinkle in its eye was full of disgust. It was as if his heart was being choked by his visible anger. "My… My Mom is dead," Zyd said weakly to her.

Her world seemed to collapse when she heard the word come out of his mouth. Her lip trembled. She couldn't absorb what Zyd said and seemed to split her heart in pain.

“N-no ... Why? No ... That’s not true!” she pushed it and quickly ran inside where its Mother was being treated.

She was shaken. No! What she saw was not true. This is not true. Mrs. McCluskey was just kidding. She was still strong before, eh. It's still strong. Her knees trembled as she stepped closer to the woman, she considered a mom. The Doctors looked at her and shook sadly. No word came out of them.

“Mrs. McCluskey?” almost no voice came out of her mouth. "M-mom ..." her voice growled. He took her hand and shook her body as he hugged her. “Mrs. McCluskey, eh! Wake up! Mom, eh. Don't make fun of me like that ... Please ...” he couldn't stop herself from sobbing loudly and hugged her. She's just kidding, eh. She's just really joking ...

A strong hand pulled at her shoulder and pushed her away. It was Zyd and his eyes were full of anger. "Leave."

She bit her lip so hard. "Zyd ... I'm not—"

"I said, leave!" its loud cry.

Tears welled up in her eyes. Is she the one Zyd blames for his Mother’s death? She was innocent and she didn’t know why that happened. Even she, too, was surprised. She fell in love with the Lady and to think that it was gone was too much pain on her part.

"Z-zyd ..."

“Go away, Elhouette! Alis! Whore, don't you understand? Go away, mother*r!”

“But It’s not my fault. Why are you blaming me? I-I can't do—”

“Then who the fuck is? Tell me! She’s battling for her stage 4 cancer but what did you do?! Huh? Tell me!”

She overcome the pain when she pulled away from the ER but she loosened her hand that was holding her tightly. "I didn’t know! I didn't know, okay ?!”

"I didn't know? Elhouette!" he kicked the mittens inside and they shattered.

She just closed her eyes and let the tears fall. Even if she cries out that she knows nothing and is guilty, her brain is closed.

"Zyd bro, how's Mom!"

“How’s Mommy ?!”

They were both stunned by Zyd when Zig entered and next to him was Kate. They were shocked to see that Mrs. McCluskey lying in Hospital bed.

“No! Bullshit, nooo!” Zig ran over to it and a loud slap she unexpectedly got from Kate.

"Murderer!" its angry shout at her.

She rubbed the cheek that was slapped. She could do nothing but shake and bite her lip very hard. That is not true. She feels, she is weak and the moment, she will fall. She needs something to hold ...

“Leave now, Elhouette. We don’t need a murderer like you.” Zyd took her hand and pulled her out but she withdrew her hand and slapped it hard. Her face turned to the slap she had given.

“Why Zyd? Do you believe, huh? S-do you think I can do that? Even now, believe me!” her voice growled as she uttered those words in front of the man.

"Leave, bitch!" she wasn't prepared for Kate's strong push.

She was overcome with pain when her stomach was hit hard at an object in the Emergency Room. She fell on the floor. It hurts!

“Leave bitch or we’ll call the police!” Kate was about to pull her by the hair when Zyd stopped her.

"Enough, Kate."

"But she killed your mother!" it’s angry cry while crying.

“Go away, Elhouette. Don't get to the point where I will call the Police myself.”

She sobbed. Not in the painful words they uttered but in the excruciating pain she felt. She was overwhelmed and had difficulty breathing in pain.

"Z-zyd ..." she called to the man who started to step back followed by his artistic ex. She was having a hard time standing up. She turned pale when she saw that a lot of blood had seeped into her leg. Lots of blood. "Zyddddd !!!" she was stunned and then her body suddenly fell to the cold floor of that Hospital. Suddenly everything became dark to her.

LAUGHING, Lianne's kiss restrained the child she was carrying. It is really cute! Add to that the fact that it's so cute to laugh and relieve stress.

“How are you baby, huh? Why so cute really? Hmm? You're cute!" she rubbed its poor cheek and neck as she laughed.

Just like before, it was still small and she was still carrying it. Now, the speed of time. She smiled and stroked her thick hair.

"Hey Girl! You are harassing my son again.” Hera's face frowned as she approached her. It came from the restroom and pissed for a while.

The strength of her laughter and jokingly punched the woman. "Obviously you're not stingy with your son, are you?"

“Probably! My son is so handsome. His father is American, who is not a handsome ha?”

She rolled her eyes and smirked at it. It's really true. She was able to marry an American twice her age to Hera and she happily lives with her husband in Pittsburgh.

"Yes, a lot of chatter."

She just raised an eyebrow at her, "Where's Trixie?"

“Looking for chocolate. She's pregnant and wants a chocolate.” She laughs at the answer. She thinks her son will also be chocolate colored when comes out.

To Trixie's flirtation, a manager cut it and captured her heart. So instant, the woman owns the restaurant with her Half Indian, Half Canadian husband.

"How about you?"

She suddenly fell silent. "What am I?"

"Zyd." She mentions a name.

She laughed at what she said. Her favorite topic is the man she has long forgotten. After what happened at the Hospital, she was gone. She threw away everything except the happy memories with Mrs. McCluskey. Before she could answer Hera's question, a child ran quickly toward her.

"Mommy!"

"My baby!" She quickly met her hug and loaded some kisses. “How is my baby so naughty? Did you torture your Tito Henrik, huh?”

She shook quickly. "Of course not! I was kind to Daddy. He gives me this, oh.” She showed her the new catalog whose cover was him. “Mommy, look! This lady looks exactly like you. Daddy Henrik said, you are said to be the Queen but I don’t believe him because you looked like a witch to me.”

Her eyebrows lined up at what her daughter had said. What she had when she was young, I think it was twice as much to her daughter. She turned her gaze to Henrik who was laughing sitting in front of them. They were at a beach resort and had fun unwinding but because her 2-year-old daughter was naughty and talkative, she was forced to accompany his princess earlier and go for a walk.

"Your anek is cute, do you know that?"

At the same time, they laughed at Hera. To this day, its words are still randomized when speaking Tagalog. Just handsome.

"Mommy, can I go with Daddy Henrik?"

She raised an eyebrow, "To where?"

“To the ice rink! I wanna play hockey. I saw it on the TV.”

Hera automatically stared at what her daughter said. Where did she find the word hockey? She looked up and glared at Henrik. He shook his head and made sign language that had nothing to do with what her princess was saying.

“Aerush Li Vergara”

Her daughter’s beautiful face was reflected. If anything got to her child, it was her tendency to squint and frown. Hera laughed to the side and it signaled that she was dead. She just gasped when she saw it with puppy eyes. No more, her heart was melting again. Why was she given such a beautiful child? Exciting! She could do nothing but nod.

She doesn't worry about Zyd and her going on the same path again because after all, he's no longer in her life. According to Hera and Trixie, the man focused on Hockey and it changed a lot. This is no longer the former Zyd who is kind and sociable with the people around it. She was also thankful that he didn't look for her ... Or why look for her. He drove her away. Pi accused.

When she lost consciousness, Zyd lifted her up and also left her in the hands of the Doctors. When she woke up, Henrik was beside her waiting patiently and his face full of worry. She also noticed that he had a bruise on his face and a cracked lip. Even if it didn’t say so, he knew Zyd and Henrik were fighting.

After that, she didn't want to remember what happened next. It was too painful to remember so she chose to bury everything in oblivion. Importantly, Aerush came to her. The best gift she has ever received.

“Okay! As long as Tito—”

“It’s Daddy, Mom. Daddy Henrik!” it’s correction at once ingos him.

She was shaken by the mini-version in front of her now. It’s hard to argue with its awkwardness and toughness. She just nodded to end the conversation.

Her daughter began to open the catalog as she was amazed and looked at her. She just smiled at it while Hera and Henrik just stared at the two of them with her daughter.

“That’s your small version, oh. But your child is just beautiful and mestizo-mestiza look. Because you, ‘still don’t turn white. Do you eat charcoal, girl?”

She almost hit Hera in the mouth as she spoke uncontrollably. Just thank her and she will embrace her unica hija.

“Mommy! Mommy, is this you?!” less than that, Aerush would stare at her while pointing to a catalog page where, she was sitting on the swing and had angel wings while wearing all white.

"Yep princess."

“You are beautiful Mommy! Like an angel,” she said in amazement as she stared at her face in the catalog for a long time, “And who is this?” It points to its fourth flip of the page.

Hera stunned them both and she looked at Henrik. She bit her lip so hard and chose ‘not to reveal it to her daughter. She smiled. "My co-model." Kate is the woman it points to.

After what happened, the issue erupted that she killed Zyd's mother with poison. Everyone, hated her and judged her whole being except her cousin, aunt and other people who knew and were close to her.

Fritz advised her to rest first and come back when the issue was over. He was one of those who helped her but Henrik was the one she leaned on. Henrik help her to get up. The first thing that entered her mind was to go home to the Philippines but she was preceded by fear. Fearing that her parents would fail, she was able to live in Pittsburgh and hid for 2 and a half years. When everything was okay, then Fritz took her again when she was ready to face the world again.

She had a hard time at first and Henrik didn't want her to model again in Beauty and You because she and Kate would definitely meet. But her decision is final, she is innocent and why should she be afraid? For her daughter, she could handle everything.

Hidden in public that they have a child with Zyd. No one knows. She was almost shot before that's what the Doctor said. She didn't even know that she was pregnant with Zyd's child. It's sad because she can't give the child a father but that doesn't matter anymore, she can stand as father and mother to their child.

“Mommy! I wanna pee.”

"You're wearing a diaper, don't pee there?"

She immediately frowned, "I don't want to."

She was shaken to her feet. Yes, it can be followed. They apologized to them. Henrik even offered to come but she just glared at it and Hera closed it. She loaded her child with Henrik and the young man was overjoyed.

As they entered the large restroom at the other end of the resort, her eyebrows rose. She saw Kate retouching make up in the large mirror. She looks like a clown going to a children’s party. She looked at her artfully and glanced at her daughter. She was startled and stared at the child she was carrying.

“Are you following me here?”

Because she was lazy to fight with the classless, especially with Aerush Li, they skipped that.

“Mommy! That’s her, right? ‘The one in the picture? She looks like a monster, Mommy!” whispered Aerush to her but almost the whole world could hear.

JUST as she had promised to her unica hija, she complied with her wish to go to the ice rink with Henrik. At first, she was worried that her daughter would be seen in public but she thought ... Her daughter’s happiness was more important than what others thought. Until now, she still laughs at what happened when she and Kate answered in the restroom of the resort ...

“Did I hear it right? That ugly ducky called me monster?!” Kate quickly pulled her by the shoulder so she backed away and pointed at her daughter.

"Kids don't lie," she replied simply.

She raised an eyebrow at her and grabbed her arm. “So, you’re telling—”

"Let go Kate or I'll shove your face on the floor," she said seriously she had and looked intently

“Then why not try it? After all, you’re a murderer.”

Her chin was tingled. Suddenly blood rushed to her head. She itches to hit her but she thinks she's carrying Aerush and she doesn't want the child to see her fighting.

"Mommy, why does that monster call you murderer?"

"Oh dear, your Mommy killed someone."

She could not hold back. Her hand quickly reached out and landed on the woman's face. "How is it?" she asked smiling. Her slap was strong and it was almost impossible to panic. “You can call me anything you want, but call me murderer infront of my daughter? Oh, darling. You are crossing the line.”

Her daughter touched her. "Mommy, do we need to slap monsters like her if we ever encounter again?" Aerush's innocent question.

She just smiled and didn't answer. They go out there and they just use the bathroom in the room. Maybe she can't control herself, she can completely wipe her face with the crayon on his face ...

"Min Dam, don't you want to go?"

She winced at Henrik's question. He really needs to train Tagalog. It's the other way around.

"Yes Mommy, don't you?" puppy eyes that her princess asked while Henrik was carrying. For the two to continue to be fathers.

She pretended to think. She has nothing to do because she has not fully focused on modeling. Fritz meant it, she did it slowly. It's like she's just doing a free-lance and she'll take care of her time.

"Say the magic word first ..."

The two shrugged at what he said. She smiled as she waited for the two to say something. She was surprised when they looked at each other and at the same time smiled meaningfully then turned to face him.

"I love you Mommy!"

"I love you, Lianne ..."

They literally go together. She suddenly blushed at what Henrik had said and felt pity on his part. This is not the first time that the young man has said this to her ... But every time that word comes out of the man's mouth, she feels even more guilty. Because if she is the one to follow, she wants to respond to his love but she is not ready. Fear and indignant anger were buried in her heart. If she ever falls in love again, she is ready. Your love that no one will dip.

They went that day to the nearby Ice-Skating Rink Arena for Kids where the little ones could practice and play. Month of January but even though the man is busy playing hockey, Aerush always has time for them. The truth of the matter is, they are far from civilization. The flight to Downtown takes four or five hours.

That day was filled with laughter for them because no matter how many times her poor baby stumbled on the ice rink; She did not cry. She was still laughing as Henrik taught skating while she, sat to one side and happily watched the two.

She also remembers that Zyd had taught her how to skate for a long time at the ice rink. She just needed to swim and dive but because Zyd had a lot of patience, she learned herself that day. Because every time she dives, the man returns her kisses. She gasped at the memory and shook her head.

"Mommy join us!"

"Come Min Dam!"

Since she was already wearing shoes for skating, she accommodated these. She quickly approached the two and her princess stared. It was still tickling when she got close.

“Daddy teach me well, because Mommy is great! Omg Daddy!”

Some of the families there are watching them. You are good and the young man wore a cap because he might hit it in no time.

"Elhouette?" She looked away when someone called her name. She saw it was Kodi and the man's face was full of surprise but his face immediately lit up. “Hey! It's been a long time and—” he looked at his daughter holding Henrik's hand and his. "Your daughter ?!"

Since she was ready for this situation, she smiled sweetly in front of Kodi and nodded. "Honey, say hi to Uncle Kodi."

“Hi, Uncle! I’m Aerush Li and this is my Mom and Dad. How are you? Are you here to play hockey, too? Do you know how to skate? Do you have—”

Henrik just laughed at Aerush's face. If he had not covered its mouth, it would not have stopped speaking. "That's enough, young lady."

"Oh, sorry!" she smiled super cute and said goodbye to practice again with Henrik. They skate away.

“You ended up with Gustavvson?” Kodi asked. It's still unbelievable.

"Yes, and we had a beautiful daughter."

“But what about Zyd?”

She smiled, “I didn’t know that name existed. So, if you excuse me, I’m going.”

Confused, the man just followed her, especially her daughter who was being taught by Henrik. Full of questioning its brain and could not believe that they met on this occasion.
