Chapter 52
mer Frost POV
Did you get home safely? I was going to send the text to Xander after I stepped out of the bathroom, but I changed my mind because there was no need to. I told him earlier not to come see me again though I didn’t mean any of those words, but still, I shouldn’t contact him, yeah?
this is frustrating.” I dropped my phone on the bed and sank my fingers into my hair as many thoughts ran through my mind. All these years, he held on to the fact that I cheated on him, when we met after several years, he wanted to take me back regardless of everything that never existed in the first place. He was still positive about the fact that I cheated, so why did he suddenly change his mind? Why did he arrange that date for me that night? Why take me to the hotel? Everything was so confusing that I couldn’t wrap my head around it.
I
1 heard my phone beep, and with excitement thinking it was Xander, I picked it up, but hissed disappointedly when I saw that it was Hunter that had
texted me
Wanna watch movie with me this weekend? I didn’t bother to hold my scoff back because there was no reason to. What does he think of me? That I’m his girlfriend he could ask around like that?
I was still staring at my phone motionless, when another text came in, and this time, it was a picture from him. I hesitantly viewed the picture out of
mosity, and there he was in the picture, holding two tickets up with a smile on his face.
novie airing this weekend. I booked the cinema for just us. Trust me, you’ll enjoy it’
“You shouldn’t have stressed yourself that much. Thank you, but American movie is not my thing” I replied to his message and dropped my phone immediately as I didn’t want any more text from him.
Minutes later, my phone started to ring, and I cursed silently, thinking it was Hunter, but my heart missed beats when I checked and saw that it was
Kander
I breathed in and out a couple of times, cleared my throat, and tested my voice before I finally swiped the answer button and held the phone to my ear.
“What do you want? What part of don’t contact me do you not understand?” I rolled my eyes, but was
as dying
of excitement that he called me.
“Summer.” He paused and sighed.
“Are you ok? is everything alright?” I almost asked him, but I tried to hold myself back
“I’m sorry I couldn’t say it to your face… I was just a coward… I really want to own up to this because it’s our mistake, but I don’t think I’m courageous enough to do it,” His voice sounded raspy, and his breath was shaky
For the next few seconds, I just held the phone to my ear and listened to him speak. I wanted to ask what he meant by that, but I was just waiting for him to say it by himself
“I know you will never forgive me, Summer… I know you never will, but I was hoping we could make this work again… I was hoping things could work out between us again this time,” The sound of his voice was evident that he was crying
“I really want to keep this a secret, but it’s haunting me… The thought of it is killing me… I can’t keep it to myself
“Did you call to waste my time? I have work to do tomorrow, so can we not waste each other’s
“It was my fault.” He cut me off, leaving my lips hanging open.
“What?” My voice came out low and unsure.

“Everything that happened was my fault, Summer, I don’t know how to say this to your face… I’m sorry for being a fool and not realising it for years until now… I’m sorry it took this long to realise it,” He whimpered and sniffled, and I scoffed.
“What is this about now? What do you mean?” My lips trembled and my eyes narrowed as I stared at nothing.
“It was a mix-up, Summer… It was all my mistake,” My heart sank into my stomach and my jaw dropped to the ground. I sat on the bed, frozen, and for the next few seconds, my brain couldn’t think of something. The only thing I could process were the words he just said.
“I don’t deserve a second chance from you, I know that… Not after everything I’ve put you through, but can you please”
“You punished me for years because of something that was all your fault? You threw me out that night without even confirming if that was true…” paused and scoffed as a drop of tears slid down the corner of my cheek. Memories of that night came haunting me again. The amount of tears I shed that night, how I went on my knees and pleaded with him to listen to me, the cold that penetrated my bones until I was taken in by a good Samaritan. Those pain were nothing compared to the one I felt in the labor room when giving birth to my kids. Even after everything, even at this moment, I still couldn’t bring myself to hate him. I loved him too much to hate him for any reason, I guess, and for that, 1 kind of resented myself.
“I know it’s difficult to put everything behind and act like it never happened, but I really want to own up to my mistake…. I really want to make things right this time. Can you please stop pushing me away? It’ll only make me want to keep trying even more,”
“Xander! Why didn’t you tell me what happened? My eyebrows squinted on their own when I heard Lisa’s voice in the background.
“Lisa?”
“Why have you been suffering alone and never cared to share it with me? Are you going to pretend nothing happened and just let everything slide event after she and that doctor ruined your whole life?” Her voice came on again, and I pulled a puzzled look, wondering what she was talking about.
“What are you talking about, Lisa? Where have you been, by the wa
“Don’t play that game with me, Xander. I already heard everything from Dad. Mom… She paid the doctor to pull that stunt on you, and ruined your marriage. Why are you not doing anything about it?” Those words from Lisa felt like a bomb thrown at me. My phone slipped from my hand and crashed on the ground…
