Chapter 8

"Erdem Calilap."

"Oh, why Cedric Kasilag?"

"I'll leave Reign with you first."

"What am I nanny ??" I was immediately taken aback by the memory of being told that Reign would leave me.

"My children and I are leaving. Don't come, I'll take her here to your office for invitations."

"Ah, is that so. All right, all right, where is it ??"

"You're not excited what?" I signaled to get organized.

"Whoo, easy. What are you thinking?"

"Nothing," he slapped his hand on my table, "But I just know that you're not just talking about invitations, I'm going to reject you as a friend."

"You're annoying, Cedric, get out of here and I'll do as much as I can!"

"All right, take care of my wife. I'll pick it up right away after we take a walk."

"Yes, Master Cedric."

Reign enters from one of their children who is immediately picked up by Cedric. He kissed his wife first before leaving my office. Reign laid down a piece of invitation card that I immediately picked up and read.

"It's good that it's okay."

"I showed that to Bebsie and approved of it."

"It's not good," I returned to what I was doing.

"We've fixed everything,"

"Thank you for your efforts,"

"We want you to be happy,"

"Yeah," I said hesitantly.

"Aren't you still happy now that she himself said to continue your marriage?"

"Happy," I managed to stand up, "So much fun. I just can't get it out of my mind lest his memory suddenly come back and leave me."

"That's why as long as you don't have the old memory, get married without Rust chasing you just in case."

"You're right but what if she filed for divorce?"

"I can only think of two,"

"What?"

"First, and at least you experienced the last time you were with her under the same roof and second, don't think about divorce hehe."

"You're great at talking."

"Ah so, you started it and need to finish."

"You're there to help me, you and Peps."

"Oh, why are you two talking to me?" Peps indeed, along with Pauline and Shien.

"Shien!" Reign hugged her, "I miss you, friend."

"I miss you too, friend." Blooming.

"How's your baby in the womb?" Touched her stomach.

"Here, naughty too." Shien rubbed his own stomach.

By the way, they secretly got married in Peps' faraway place because Zen was chasing. And this is Peps because Shien still loves him so much that he secretly married her and had children right away. Pauline was very kind to have a sibling. The fun they look at now.

"Take care of that, it's Peps flesh and blood." I'm joking here.

"Make sure it's just as cute as Pauline." Squeeze the child's cheek. It's already big. Extremely fast weather. It seems like recently. Zen confessed that she was pregnant and Cedric was the father but the truth was that it was Peps. This is also the wick of Shien's separation. There was even more hope because another man joined Zen and left Pauline here.

"Love, you and Pauline are out first." Peps orders the wife.

"All right." Shien immediately included Pauline. It would have been like Reign had Peps just pulled his collar.

"You shouldn't get lost in this conversation." Peps said seriously as he folded his arms.

"Talk where?"

"About Bebsie, and Erdem the only three of us know about the bullshit Erdem did."

"Of course, right now we shouldn't think the time is right for the two."

"That's what you think based on what Erdem told me that Rust, Bebsie's boyfriend, is fine. I think there's a good chance he'll come home to the Philippines to go back and find Beb."

"I didn't think about how we were going to do that, Erdem?" Reign asked.

"I'm talking to a nurse who's monitoring him. I'm always updating when it comes out and based on the nurse it's still a bit long because it has a little bit of a wound that needs to heal before it comes out." I explain the two.

"You should get married somewhere else where you live." Suggestion by Peps.

"I thought about that too. It's good to be abroad but it looks like I'll have a hard time if that happens. My older brother can't help here since he's also busy teaching."

"Hmmm, it would be nice if it was only here in the Philippines. I know you can live there but Cedric will know if I don't say that." Reign said hesitantly.

"Ahm, for now we're going to condominium first since other condominiums don't provide info to people asking about their clients."

"Right, condo first." Reign agrees.

"Okay, in the meantime."

"But how long are you going to hide from everyone and especially Bebsie? We can't hide it for life because there's a Rust that exists here to take Bebsie."

"We're going to kill Cedric." I suggest.

"What ?! No way, we had a conversation with that arrogant man. He won't kill or hurt anyone." Reign dislikes it.

"It's just you," I pointed at Peps but averted my eyes.

"I'm sorry, I can't now go inside my wife when she finds out someone is going to kill me."

"Oh, who am I going to do?"

"There's another way you don't go back to where you used to be." Reign pleaded while thinking.

"Talk to you please don't bother anymore." Peps said again.

"I will try." Even if it blows to the moon I will do it I will still try.

"Not for the rest of your life will you pretend you're still the one she loves." After Reign spoke then we heard the door close.

Thania overheard the three of us talking.

"You lied." Judgment was on his face.

"Thania ..." Reign approached but she avoided me and approached me.

"I thought it was just a prank call, that's true --- it's true!"

"Sssshh ... lower your voice, Thania." Peps is here.

"And why do you have to hide the whole truth huh ?! You Reign, and Peps, why are you doing Erdem's mistake ?!"

"You're wrong ..." I slapped.

"The height of my opinion of you. I thought you were different from your sinful friends but you disappoint me so much."

"Thania, let's not get involved in their problem, let Erdem solve it on his own, let's not exaggerate ...."

"So are you, Reign. You know how much I love him but what are you doing? You let him do it even if it's wrong. He won't be loved anymore if everyone thinks they're still in love!"

"Thania, please ..." Peps pleaded.

"I don't know about you all." She was about to leave but Peps blocked his way, "Let me pass,"

"I don't want to, let's fix it badly if it comes out and gets to Bebsie let's let Erdem approach it."

"You think that's it? Just wait." It was pushed into the distance and came out effortlessly.

"How's that ??" Confused Reign picked up the cellphone, "I'll call Cedric."

"Don't!" She was stunned, "Please, I'll talk to her just don't get to Cedric about this."

The two looked at each other before I left the office. I caressed Thania trying to catch up with her but I think it was too late. I canceled all meetings today and went straight to the house where Bebsie was.

"Honey, what are you doing here? Why did you come home so early?" Bebsie asked in surprise.

"I said goodbye not to come in. I feel bad, right bad." I rummaged around the house to see if Thania was here, "Are you letting a guest in here?"

"Guest? Nothing yet, why?"

"Ah, nothing. Nothing because maybe you'll suddenly let in someone you don't know, it's hard."

"You told me about that. Don't worry, maybe later Brother Tolits will get angry at what you're doing during work hours. You'll suddenly cancel all meetings."

"I feel bad," I reasoned again.

"I'll get you medicine," get a medicine kit, "Does your head hurt, or whole body?"

I pulled her gently, "Kiss and hug me I'll be fine."

"No way?"

"Try, kiss me." I hugged her tightly. No doubt she kissed me on the lips until it deepened sat on the sofa.

"Dear, someone sent me a message just an unknown number."

"What did you say?"

"I said I'll meet later in the park so only when I played it didn't answer."

"Maybe it was just the wrong sent, don't worry."

"All right, I'll just take a shower." After that I immediately picked up his cellphone and checked to see if the number was familiar.
