It was just a Dream

I saw Mom running towards me and hugged me suddenly, "Oh my sweetheart! You're back!"

I'm confused, what's going on?! I looked around and here are people I haven't seen since I left the Philippines.

I held David's hand.

Why do I feel this way?!

I'm scared of them all!

I was so scared to the point that I didn’t want Mom’s hug. There seems to be something wrong!

I looked at David who was also confused by what was happening.

"Catherine?!" David calls to the woman behind him.

Just then we heard a car just arriving.

When the person who owns the vehicle enters.

David and I were so shocked when Jacob was this man.

"Jacob?! What's going on?!" Even before he could answer me, David punched him immediately.

"You are so shameless! You are deceiving us! How can we trust you?! You are deceiving us!" David is so angry that he punches Jacob.

I saw our former friends Travis and Chad hurrying to plead with David and Jacob.

"I told you if I can come. Because you still have a lot to know." Jacob tries to stand up even though David's punches are steady on him.

I couldn't help but cry.

Why do I feel like everyone is fooling me?!

Suddenly someone took my hand.

I tried to open my eyes even though it was fading because of the tears streaming down my face.

"G-Grace?!"

She smiled at me and she took me to Mom and she hugged me tightly. "I miss you, best!" She told me.

I cried even more, why of all the people I wanted to see then are the people I don't want to see now?!

"W-What's going on?! P-Please, tell me! What?!" I shout at them all.

But no one wanted to speak, I saw David stop punching Jacob as well.

I could see the anger on his face.

"Let's go!" David was angry that I was pulled.

I'm not holding David back anymore.

I went with him and we got in his car.

He hit the steering wheel of his car.

"Fuck! They're making a fool of us two!" He was still angry telling me.

"What did I do to them ?! Why are they doing this to me ?!"

"You're not doing anything wrong, hon. They're wrong! I'll take care of you. I won't leave you. I won't get lost beside you, I'll protect you from everything." David said to me, he gives me assurance.

Before we left our house we noticed the people inside our house coming back to have fun.

What should be the reason for them to rejoice ?! I noticed Jacob running and he was chasing David's car.

David looked at him in the rearview mirror and David accelerated his car.

I do not know what happened after that.

We were far from our house and I also didn’t know where David and I were going. I let him decide where he would take me.

All I want now is to get away from them all.

I looked at David and still frowned at him, his eyebrows were still furious.

I know it's hard in her situation because she doesn't want to hurt me.

David took my hand and he looked at me.

He gave me a sweet kiss on my forehead, but I was so shocked when I looked at the road we were about to collide with the big truck!

"DAVID!" I called him and when he saw the reason I shouted.

He was confused as to how to turn his car.

~

I forced my eyes open, what happened ?!

I looked around and only blue and red I could see shining around as well as people making a fuss.

I looked at David and saw him unconsciously leaning his head on the steering wheel.

"Hon ?!" I call him.

"HON!" I shouted at him I couldn't raise my hand to tap him.

I can't reach him.

"Hon!" I was crying because I tried to call him but he didn't respond.

"Hon! Please look at me!" I said to him but he still wouldn't give me a look.

I forced myself to look around even though I was struggling so hard and I was hurting.

I noticed Catherine not far away talking on the cellphone.

I could see the concern on her face and she was crying looking at the car where we were.

What had happened hadn’t really crossed my mind yet, so I turned my gaze back to David.

When the light passed inside the car.

I saw that David's head was covered with blood.

"HON!"

"HON!"

Someone is forcing me to tap. I looked around and suddenly the red and blue lights disappeared.

"Hon! Wake up! You're dreaming!"

My forehead furrowed. How do they call this a dream? I can almost feel our collision with the big truck!

I looked at David next to me again.

But when I turned to my side he was gone.

I cried, even more, when I saw that David was not by my side.

"Hon!" When he called me, I felt a heavy hand holding my two arms.

When I tried to open my eyes, I saw David's worried eyes staring at me.

My brain could not yet process what had happened.

Suddenly I saw my own hug I hugged David.

"I'm sorry, hon. Our meeting took a long time. What happened to you? You're so sweaty, I found you crying. I thought you were awake but you fell asleep." David said worriedly and he wiped my sweat with his palm.

"Hon, I was dreaming," I said.

He helped me to my feet and took me to the restroom inside his office.

I looked at myself in the mirror. I'm really sweaty.

"I'll just get you a shirt, is it okay for you to use my clothes early? I still have my jogging clothes here. Cycling and dri-fit shirt." He asked me as he fixed my hair that had stuck to my skin because of my sweat.

"Anything can do, hon."

After he left, I immediately washed.

Why does it seem so real? Why did I feel like everything?

I can't believe it's all just a dream because I can feel the pain and agony when I feel it.

If only they had just finished meeting Jacob.

Couldn't they have talked about something? What happened to their meeting?

Are some of my dreams true? And if there is, what is right there?

That's right, I'm going to ask David about their meeting.

If only he had just finished meeting Jacob.

Couldn't they have talked about something? What is their meeting?

Are some of my dreams true? And if there is, what is right there?

Alright, I’ll ask David about their meeting.

When David returned, he handed me his towel, cycling, and dri-fit shirt.

I wiped my face with the towel he handed me.

"By the way, hon. What did you and Jacob talk about?" I looked at him from the restroom mirror.

He bowed his head first before speaking, "actually I have something to say about that." He look into my eyes and smiled, "Jacob wanted to invite you to Callie's birthday but I don't think Catherine agreed with what Jacob wanted to happen." He shrugged.

When he said that I seemed to be disappointed because I did not hear the answer I was waiting for.

"What else did you talk about besides that?" I asked him with a frown.

"Actually Jacob said something about the death threats you receive but I want to ask you if there really are?" I could see in his eyes that his question was sincere.

I could tell he was upset because, of all the people who could have known what was going on with me, Jacob was the first to find out.

I didn't mean to keep it a secret because I was afraid he wouldn't be able to concentrate on his work if he found out.

"Y-Yes. I-I don't want to hide it from you but because I know you'll be too worried when you find out and be the cause why you can't focus on your work."

"Why would you think that? Didn't I tell you that you should tell me anything else? What if I didn't know and then something bad happened to you. Do you think I can forgive myself for not protecting you?" He sounds sincere.

I took his hand in mine and looked him in the eyes, "I-I'm sorry, I'll tell you but I just don't know where to begin."

Instead of holding my hands back he just hugged me, "I will protect you as much as I can and in the way I know."

I couldn't answer yet because he suddenly claimed my lips.

His hands were placed only on my shoulders when he slowly lowered to my waist.

"A-Are we going to do this 'thing' here?" I asked, surprised because I knew where our emotions would lead us.

He just smiled and slowly he brought his face closer to my neck and he started kissing it.

He cupped my breast with his left hand while his right hand caressed my nape.

I suddenly moaned slightly as he toyed with my nipples.

"Do you like it, hon?" I was even more turned on by him because of his husky voice.

It was as if someone was telling me to tell him not to stop playing with my nipples.

"Oh, God! P-Please don't stop!" I cursed.

He smiled a little when I said that so I was even more annoyed because he still did not continue.

Instead of waiting for him, I moved because I was disgusted with his slowness.

I put his right hand on my other breast and then I tried to reach his nape to get support and I kissed him aggressively.

"H-Hon." David called me.

"If I were you, I would shut my mouth! Or else-"

I didn't finish what I was saying because I was trying to remove his belt suddenly ...

"Fuck!" Jacob's cursed when he saw what we’re doing.

And our eyes automatically widened as he suddenly entered David's office.

"What the fuck!?" David shouted back at him.

I was suddenly embarrassed, so instead of saying fuck/what the fuck to the two of them, I bowed my head and exited David's office.

Aside from the embarrassment, I felt as if I was too upset with Jacob because the heat I was feeling had vanished and I felt as if I was hanging.

Damn!

So when I passed him I looked at him badly and I hit him on purpose.

"What the!" He sounds annoyed when I did that to him but I didn't care anymore I was in a hurry to walk to the elevator.

"Hon!" David even called me. But I ignored him too.

I hate them both!

**Jacob’s POV**

I'm not sure if I'd be annoyed or happy because they didn't do what they were supposed to do. For God's sake! Really in front of me!

"Didn't your parents teach you how to knock properly?!" David asked me a sarcastic question.

"I'm not sorry because it's a good thing you didn't do what you were supposed to do! How dare you do that here! Inside the office! Fuck like FUCK YOU!" I even raised my middle finger at him.

Isn't he really conscientious Abigail is still my wife!

"I don’t care about you!" This was his only answer to me and he turned his back at me.

He just grabbed his bag and was about to leave when I stopped him.

"Can you give me some respect? Even if you think you're not married to her yet, I hope you think she's still married."

I can't quite imagine that I'm the one telling her that in fact, he should already know this because it's so obvious that Abigail and I are still married because they haven't been married yet.

I can't imagine that if I didn't come and if I came late, I might not be able to cope with what I will see. Because now I'm sick.

He brought his face close to mine and stared me seriously in my eyes, "you shouldn't be telling me that, you should be telling that to yourself. You should know how to respect her decision, whether you're married or not, I don't fucking care! So back off!"

I was about to speak when he passed me and as he turned around he raised his hand and waved his middle finger at me.

So at this point, I was so pissed off with him to the point that I wanted to punch the door of his office.

Suddenly my cell phone rang signaling that I had a call.

*"Yes?" *

*"Babe, are you going home? We have something to talk about."* Said Catherine on the other line.

*"What's that?! I'm sure it doesn't matter what you say!"* I was annoyed by hearing her voice.

I know I was terrible with Catherine, but I couldn't help but be like this with her because I was so annoyed with her, and then this happened to the three of us, Abigail and David.

Bullshit!

For God’s sake! I'm not having a good day!

*"I invited Abigail to Callie's birthday, are you happy? Do you feel like talking? Do you want to know next?"*

When she said that I suddenly smiled as if last time we had a fight because she didn't want Callie to approach Abigail but now she took the initiative. What a beautiful air she could breathe.

*“Oh… really?”* I said to him and you could tell in my voice that I was excited. "So, what about now?"

*"You're too insensitive! You don't really feel it, do you? You don't really care if I get hurt!"*

*"Will you say the next one or not? I'll take it down!"* I shouted angrily at him.

I noticed that David's secretary turned to me so I just told him I was okay and left me here.

But I noticed he was pointing at the door of David’s office that I was currently leaning against.

So does he mean I left that man's office ?! Doesn’t it know that my position is higher than David’s!

*"I texted her and I said we should talk. About us, but before she knows what it will be I would like you to know about it first."*

"Excuse me, Sir Fuentes. I'm sorry but I have to close Sir David's office because he's gone and I have to go home," said David's secretary. As she bent down her head and was still embarrassed to speak.

Doesn’t she know what she’s doing is rude?!

I never heard Catherine's answer again because I had already turned my attention to David's secretary, "don't you see I'm talking to someone?!"

"Sir, I know I can apologize but because my mother also needs me so I have to go home." In this part, I felt that I was rude because I was more bothering her.

"I'm sorry, I'm leaving too. Thank you." I said to her and she bowed in respect when I left in front of her.

I was waiting for the elevator when I remembered that I was talking to Catherine.

*"Hello?"

*"Hello!"* Shit! She dropped the call!
