I love you till it hurts.

Are you sure that you can't love me back? Eunice ask Sheldon while sitting on his lap. Using her most seductive voice, she is trying to seduce the man.

"You know the answer to that Eunice, I love your sister very much since we were young. Can you stop this non-sense. I will never love you back. So stop doing this for your sister sake." Sheldon angrily remove her hand that's touching his lips and push her to the ground.

Ouch that's hurt. My ass is for you to caress." She stood up right away, touching her aching butt. She's wearing a body fitting jeans that shows her round but not so big ass. Just sexy enough. She like to dress up and look beautiful for Sheldon.

"And why are you here in my office. Jack!" He shouted to his secretary. "Am I not clear enough when I told you not to let Eunice in my office."

Immediately, Jack went inside to the Boss office, he is also surprise that the young Miss of Robinson is inside.

Err, Boss! I didn't know that she's here. Jack said. I went with you in the meeting room.

"So you're blaming me." If looks could kill, Jack will be dead right there, with how Sheldon is looking at him.

Ah errr...

Don't blame him honey! It's not his fault that he can't distinguish, whose who. Eunice interrupt. She doesn't like someone to be blame because of her.

I told you many times that you're not allowed here.

But honeycakes...

"Stop wasting my time, get out of here and respect your sister. She's been patient and understanding enough with your capricious. When are you going to grow up and help your family business so you wont disturb me during working hours."

"If you will be my boyfriend I promise to be good and be more responsible."

I am not a thing for you to covet, I am your sister's boyfriend. He put emphasis on the last sentence.

I can get whatever I want but you're the only exception. You know I love you too since we were young but you're not giving me a chance to show it. You're always rejecting me and have only eye for Bernice and I don't know why?"

"I am more beautiful than my sister, sexier and I only like you." She hook up her arms around Sheldon neck.

Sheldon laugh sarcastically and remove her hands. "This is what I don't like about you, you're shameless and full of yourself but your nothing without your parents wealth."

"What to like about you, you're a spoiled heiress that knows nothing. Don't ever compare yourself with Bernice because you will only make yourself bad. A rotten one between the two. How many boyfriends did you have since puberty.

But I only take them to see if you will be jealous.

As if, I don't like you since we were young. You always pester me and bullied Bernice.

Because you only want to play with Bernice and she doesn't want me around. You also bullied me then and even when we grew up, you're always angry with me but nevertheless I still want you. I think that's my curse. She pouted.

I don't like a secondhand thing with no self-respect. She can see the disgust in his eyes that intended for her.

She stares at Sheldon handsome face and sigh inwardly. I am used with the way he talk to me but everytime he is being harsh with his words I cant help but still get hurt.

If you don't like secondhand thing, break up with Bernice. she said, she knows that her sister is no longer pure but it seems that Sheldon doesn't know about it.

Don't disrespect your innocent sister. I'm referring about your shameless shenanigan with different boyfriend.

Different boyfriend. Its only a fling, they didn't even get the chance to kiss her since she want to give her first kiss to Sheldon. She thought inwardly. There was time that due to her frustration with her unrequited love with Sheldon, she dated several times to show him that someone can like her and admire her. She had a delusion that, if Sheldon can see that someone like her, he will realize his feelings with her.

But it backfire. Few days later, Sheldon and Bernice, formally announce to their family their relationship.

She was really hurt by their announcement because she truly like Sheldon though he doesn't take her feelings seriously.

For him, its only my capricious that I should get what I want and he make it a point that he will be the exception.

It is not her fault that her family is well off that my parents can give me everything that I ask for except of course for Sheldon.

She ask her parents to arrange a marriage between them but they refused and said that because her sister also like Sheldon, it will depend on the man. And he chose Bernice and advice me to accept their relationship and be happy for her sister and friend.

She retreat for few months, she continue to date different guys hoping that she can get over her feelings for Sheldon. She tried to minimize her interaction with them but everytime she tried to, Sheldon is always there, glaring at her and insulting her.

After several months of no success to forget how she feels about Sheldon, she decide to pursue her feelings with him.

She accepted that he loves her sister now but she comes to a resolution that if she can honestly show her true feelings to him, she can get his love. She shamelessly confess her feelings to him, disregarding her sisters feeling. I know its not right but ever since they were young, they have the habit to compete with each other, be it with toys or their parents attention and lastly with Sheldon attention.

When she was young, she tried to share her things with Bernice and be more loving but her sister is a devil in disguise. She will destroy things and blame her. So she learn to fight back but she became bad and selfish to others because Bernice will make it look that I started the fight and she will make herself look pitiful with tears in her eyes. The damsel in distress.

So when Sheldon, visits to play and see Bernice, crocodile tears, he will ask Bernice, who did it to her and the actress will refuse to name her. Sheldon will always come to conclusion that, she bullied Bernice and will bullied her in return. They will exclude her to their games. She doesn't like crying so she will destroy what they are playing, in retaliation.

Because she had that reputation, she shamelessly confessed to Sheldon and swear that she will do her best to make him love her.

It is easier said than done. Of course, he doesn't believe me and insult my feelings. It became a habit to him to embarrass me and became more harsher with me.

Always, empathizing that he will only love my sister and whatever I do, it has no effect to him and it only makes him disgusted with her.

It's been two years since I confessed my feelings to him and its been 10 years that I like him. There was no changes with the way he treated her. Always strict and insulting.

Is it time to retreat and surrender? she ask herself but didn't noticed that I said it verbally though in a low and sad voice.

"That's the best gift you will give me. Back off and leave us alone." Sheldon is so close to Eunice, that even though she said her last thought in low voice, Sheldon can clearly understand her.

"I'm only shameless with you." She said. Because I don't want to regret that I didn't tried my best to get what I want but I guess this is it the end of rope for the two us.

That's very Eunice, get what she want without thinking of other people. Disrespecting your sister and my feelings.

Are you sure, without a doubt, that you don't have feelings for me, even a little bit. She needs to nail it, in my brain that it is a lost cause to pursue Sheldon.

My only feelings for you is disgust.

Don't regret your decision. Once I decide not to love you, I will not change my mind, even if you kneel or kill yourself. I will not give you another chance. Her pride that's normally gigantic, wanted to reclaim its post. She lost it, when she decide to love Sheldon.

"The only regret that I have is, I cant totally get rid of you since your Bernice sister and disgustingly look exactly like Bernice. Your always on her shadow so she can't have spotlight for herself."

"Too bad for her." she glared at him. This is the last time that I will allow myself to feel the pain but she wont cry and be more pitiful in front of him. After today, they wont exist in my world.

Good riddance! Still proud and head held high, she exit, Sheldon's office.

She failed but she wont regret her action. Contrary to what other thinks of her, she doesn't put herself above everyone. She knows that, she cant get everything that she want, that she needs to work harder for something that she really want. So there will be no regret at the end.

It's Sheldon birthday today.

Last year, she's busy to find the best gift for him but today she lazily lying on the bed. She has a gift for him in her drawer but she's not planning to give it to Sheldon. She decided not to attend his birthday party as part of her healing and forgetting process. It wont do her good, if she can see his handsome face and charming smile that is directed to her sister only.

They can be together, for all I care. Hmmmp! Frowning while imagining the annoying scenario in her head.

Knock...knock...

Come in! she shouted, too lazy to get up.

Mrs. Holland, her loving nanny, enter with a red dress in hand.

Eunice, your dress for tonight. I'll hang it in your wardrobe room. Would you like me to contact your favourite hairdresser....

"No need." She cut off Mrs Holland. "I'm not gonna attend the party, you can throw that dress. I wont be needing it anymore." She pouted while looking at the dress. She designed the dress with Sheldon on her mind and heart, and she don't need a reminder of her heartache.

"You can wear it or give it to Mina." Mina is Mrs Holland's niece. "I've heard that she will be attending her highschool prom. It will look good on her, with a little adjustment."

Goodness! Mrs Holland exclaimed, when she heard her instruction. "It wont fit on me but Mina can wear it. Are you sure, this dress is very beautiful and I know, you prepared it just for Sheldon. Mrs Holland is well aware of her feelings for Sheldon since she was young, because everytime that Sheldon and Bernice excludes her in their games, she always cry secretly in Mrs Holland's arms.

I decided to let them be and forget about my feelings for Sheldon. So from now on Nans, no mention of Sheldon's name in front of me. Tell the others please.

Mrs Holland look at Eunice sadly. "You will find the right man for you someday. Anyway, Mina will be happy with this dress since she is looking forward with that party." Mrs Holland talk comfortably with Eunice. Because aside from her parents, Mrs Holland take care of her and her sister since they were born. She is their nanny and she love her like her own mother.

If you're sure about this.

100%. Oh by the way, I'll be working with my project so I don't want any distraction. I wont go down for lunch and dinner.

Mrs Holland look at her disapprovingly, when she heard her request. Its not good to starve yourself.

Nans, I won't be starving myself, I have several snack in my fridge.

But those are not healthy and nutritious. Look at you, you're so thin. You need to eat more to get some muscles.

Nans, I'm good and sexy, hahaha but please advise everyone. Thanks, love you...

When she is working, she give all her attention and doesn't want to be distracted. Designing a jewelry takes a lot of inspiration and concentration to create a masterpiece.

When it comes to her work, she is very dedicated. This is another misunderstanding between her and Sheldon.

Sheldon thought that she's good for nothing and only rely with her parents wealth. Though she doesn't get involve with the family business, it does not mean that she's just wasting her time. It is just that, their family business is not her repertoire.

She like designing jewelry and she's good with it. She has her own business as she work free lance and she has a lots of client, waiting for their turn.

Her company name Eunique is slowly creating a name in jewelry design industry. She works under a pseudo name, Jewel Robs since she wants to create a name of her own. Without the influence of her family name.

Though working in the family business is not something that she cannot do. She is smart, so it will be easy for her to learn how to manage it. She just decided to let Bernice manage it to avoid any conflict with her sister.

Her sister, though she complaint a lot with Sheldon that she is not helping and urging her parents to persuade her to help. Bernice will not like, if she will share the controlling power in the company with her.

Sometimes, she's thinking if they are really twin sister.

If we're not identical, Eunice will really think that they are not sisters. Bernice is always against her and always finding fault. Always make her feel that I did her wrong, that I'm always coveting what belongs to her. Well except for my unhidden desire to possess Sheldon, which of course Bernice won, by default and without trying since Sheldon loves her, wholeheartedly.

She can manage the company, all by herself, she just want to live in peace.

"Finally!" She stretch her shoulder, neck and arms. She's been working all day to finish, one complete set of jewelry design for her clients wedding. She still needs to create another design of jewelry for Bennison and Co. but it can wait for tomorrow. Since she is not pursuing Sheldon, she has a lot of time.

Bennison and Co. is one of her biggest client and they are trying to make her their exclusive jewelry designer. She's still thinking of the pros and cons. Eunique is doing well on its own.

She look at her watch, its now 7:00PM, the party probably started. Her parents and Bernice leave at around 6:00PM.

After drinking some water, she lay on her bed to sleep. She is almost asleep, when she heard a knock on her door.

I told them, I'm not going to eat. She murmur and ignore the knocking.

"Eunice, open the door or I will have Nans open it." Someone shouted at her door but because, she's sleepy, she didn't recognize Sheldon's voice.

The knocking intensify, she sit on the bed and shouted, in an annoyed voice. "I said I don't want to eat dinner, I'm going to sleep."

"Eunice, open this door."

Having seated, the voice became clearer to her. "Is that Sheldon voice?" she ask herself, not sure if its really the man.

Knock...knock..knock...

"Open the door now, or I will get someone open it" Sheldon, angrily shouted, loosing any more patients that he has. He has been knocking profusely on her door and the damn girl is sleeping.

"Wait" she shouted back, while walking to open the door

"Yes" she asked curiously. She can't think of anything why Sheldon is at her door.

It his birthday party, aren't he supposed to be at the party.

What's your drama?

Drama????

Your parents, ask me to pick you up. I'm supposed to be celebrating my bday with the people that I love but here I am, arguing with your non-sense.

You can go back to the people you love. I don't plan on attending your party. She tried to close the door but Sheldon, stop it.

I'm going to give you 15 minutes to fix yourself or you can chose to attend the party in your pajamas.

"I said I am not going. Best gift ever, remember." She said sarcastically.

"Your 15 minutes is running." Sheldon cut her off and ignore her sarcasm.

Well! What's new, you attended last year party with a costume.

Glaring at him, she push him outside so she can close the door

I'll be back in 15 minutes. Sheldon shouted outside.

Last year party is one of her embarrassing moment. It is stated in her invitation that its a superhero theme party and everyone must be in costume. Though she's thinking that it didn't match Sheldon personality to hold that type of theme party since he is always serious but it is on the invitation. She work on her design immediately, her superhero costume is Cat woman, complete with eye mask with her jewelry design.

Little did she knows that, Bernice intentionally design that prank. She even alter the time of the party so she will arrive late. Her parents were not able to attend last year party since they are on vacation.

Nervously, she arrived in the middle of the party with her body hugging costume. Every one paid her attention, looking at her comically and whispering with their group. She want the floor to open and eat her alive. Good thing that she is wearing a mask, people wont see, how red her face from the embarrassment.

But she's Eunice, she wont let Bernice beat her, so instead of showing her embarrassment, she confidently walk to Sheldon to greet him a happy birthday.

He is currently talking with few of his friend with Bernice on his arms but they stop talking when she enters the party. They are all looking at her. Sheldon with his unreadable expression. Bernice with her worried expression but inside she is rejoicing and the other guy with a mixture of admiration and naughtiness in their eyes.

Eunice smile at Sheldon "Surprise! This! Pointing at her costume is my first gift and this is your second gift, your costume. she said while extending a box to an angry Sheldon. Her gift is not really a superhero costume for Sheldon but a customize brooch pin with Sheldon's name.

"What are you doing?" Sheldon said in a low voice but you can hear that he is not happy with her. He did not extend his hand to accept her gift

"Aren't you like it. Your girlfriend set this up for you." Eunice said, looking at Bernice. "Happy Birthday." She kiss his cheeks, before she can move out his personal space, Sheldon tightly hold her hand and whisper. "Get out!

"Oh! I just came in. I haven't have drinks or eat anything." She protested though she really want to vanish right then and there.

Sheldon remove his jacket and throw it to her face. "You're disgusting and shameless. Either you go home voluntary or I'll have one of the security throw you out."

She shake her head to discard the unpleasant memory.

Knock.... Knock... Knock

"Eunice"

"I'm not yet done. Please call Nans. She shouted. She look at herself in the mirror. Though she applied light make up and brush up her hair and clip it at the side, she looks beautiful and sophisticated.

She's almost done except she needs to zip her dress at the back.

Eunice, stop wasting my time and open this damn door. On the count of three.... One.... Two...

She open her door, glaring at Sheldon. "Call Nans, my dress is still open.

"Turn around." Sheldon didn't wait for her response, he push her around and zip her dress, faster than she can recite her name.

"Now let's go." He left before she can say something.

Is she really disgusting to him. She look at Sheldon's back

They arrived at the Miller residence together, but they go separately as soon as they alight from the car.

Once inside, she goes straight to her parents. She greet them with a kiss. Sheldon parents is also with them.

"Hello Uncle and Auntie. How are you?" she also kiss them on the cheek as a greetings

"We are in good health." Auntie Sol said

"No surprises this year, eh" Uncle Ed said jokingly to her, reminding her of that embarrassing moment.

"Hahaha, I am too busy to come up with a surprise uncle plus Sheldon will surely kill me this time, if I pull another one." She get one drink from the passing waiter.

Since she decided not to pursue Sheldon, she didn't know what to do at the party. She look around for something interesting. She saw her best friend Lindsey with her brother's Mike.

"Excuse me mom and dad, uncle and auntie, I saw Lindsey arrives. I will just greet them."

"Go ahead, have fun!" Her mom said

"You look normal this year." Lindsey said when she approach their table.

Rolling her eyes at her friends attempt to joke. "You very well knows what the reason behind that."

"Any trick to get his attention. I can help you, I am bored" Lindsey offers

"No need! I decide to love myself more."

"More on, you got rejected again. Hehehe. My brother is just waiting for you to wake up."

"I am awake now, I decided to stop loving him." If only, it is easy to forget. Her decision is still new, so the pain is still raw. She drank her champagne in one straight gulp.

"Hey, take it easy." Mark remind Eunice

"Sorry Mark, my heart is still aching and I don't know when it will heal. You better find someone better than me. I am a lost cause. You're a great guy and deserves happiness." Mark is one of her friend and Lindsey is his twin sister. They have been good friends since college so it easy for her to talk her feelings and thoughts to them.

Mark harbour feelings for her, for more than a friend. They already talked about it. She confessed that her heart already belongs to someone. He knows her unrequited love for Sheldon and he wants to wait. I told him, not to wait because I have been loving Sheldon for quite a long time and I can't teach myself to unlove him. He understand and promised me that he does not have any expectation. That he will love me until he found someone to love or I fell in love with him.

So they decide to keep their friendship. They are friends from the very beginning after all.

"I am not supposed to attend tonight, as part of my healing process." She take another sip from her glass "but the beast is too domineering. How can I forget him, if he keeps on showing himself." She sighed

"Attention everyone." Sheldon is on the stage with her sister Bernice

"Thank you for coming to celebrate another year in my life. Today I would also like you all to be the witness of another milestone in my life.

Everyone is curious with Sheldon's announcement.

Eunice stares at Sheldon on stage with a tight heart. Somehow, she has an idea on what new milestone, he is talking about. He will propose and he want me to witness it, that's probably why, he agreed to pick me. How cruel.

You give up already. Please accept it. Please don't care about them, she remind herself.

I would like to invite my parents and Bernice parents on stage. Eunice pay attention to Sheldon once again, after a little pep talk to herself.

"Uncle Ben and Auntie Fell, I would like to ask permission to marry your daughter Bernice, if she will have me." Sheldon lovingly stares at Bernice. He's been thinking of it for a long time and decide it will be the right time for them to start a family.

"Sheldon!" Ben started, he look at his wife with a wide smile. "We've known you since you were young and I am confident that you will take care and love of our daughter, sincerely. Yes, you have our permission."

"Thank you Uncle and Auntie!" He shake hands with his future father-inlaw and kiss his future mother-inlaw. He look at Eunice from afar. He would like to invite her at stage as well but he change mind at the last minute. He doesn't want undivided attention between the sisters.

Looking at her lovely soon to be fiance "Sweetheart, its your turn now! Will you marry me!

"Yes, I will." Bernice said with teary eyes. She's been waiting for this proposal for quite sometime. She want to be Mrs. Miller to cement her position in the society. Miller is one of the well respected name in the business industry in A City. Powerful and dependable.

Eunice unknowingly shed tears. She immediately, wipe it with her hands. She clap with everyone to congratulate the newly engage couple. Sheldon looks happy, smiling to everyone that's congratulate them. It's hard to accept that I am not the one that makes him smile.

Suddenly, her eyes meet Bernice eyes. She schooled her face and made her eyes looks blank while Bernice eyes is taunting her for her heartbreak.

She look at Sheldon and his eyes is devoid of any happiness but a blank stares. She can't read him. It will always be hard for her to read him as he never gave her any opportunity to be closed to him.

What is he thinking? I didn't make any scene so he will be thankful instead. She said to herself and look away.

Maybe Sheldon and Bernice deserve each other. They are match made in hell. she tried to console herself. She drink all the champagne on her glass to look away on the hellish couple

She wants to feel numb. Her heart that is currently broken is shed into more pieces. This is his plan all along, he made sure that I attended this event to break my heart even more. For reality check.

"What if, we further our studies abroad." Lindsey suggested "that way, you wont be seeing him, specially after today." she takes pity on her best friend and want to help her with her pain.

"That's a good suggestion sis. What do you think Eunice." He move his chair close to Eunice, to hear her clearly. Since everyone is applauding the newly engage couple, the background noise is more louder.

"That's a good idea! I will think about it. Maybe a change is best for me." She is glad that she's with her trusted friend at this difficult moment.

"Thank you, I am glad that I have a friends like you two." she hugged Mark first since he is close to her. "Come here Lindsey" Eunice invited Lindsey for a group hug. She is thankful for the love and care that she is getting from the two siblings. Lindsey and Mark are giving her the sibling love that she's not getting from Bernice.

Unbeknown to her, Sheldon is looking at them from afar and he didn't know why he doesn't like what he's seeing. She's supposed to congratulate us not, immediately find a man for herself.

Eunice excuse herself to the powder room after their group hug. She, doesn't want to approach the happy couple looking miserable. She doesn't to show them how defeated she felt right now.

"Oh you're here." Bernice said when she saw Eunice in the powder room. Eunice is thankful that she already washed her face when Bernice enter the room. There is no more traces of tears and she already retouch her make up. She compose and ready herself for whatever whatever remarks Bernice will throw to her. Eunice is sure that Bernice will gloat about her engagement.

"So I guess you're going to stop coveting my man now. We're now engage and will be married soon. Just accept that whatever you do, Sheldon will never love you neither like you." Bernice said while looking at Eunice in the mirror. In her face shows how happy she is with her misery.

Though Eunice decided to stop pursuing Sheldon, she doesn't want to look pitiful until the end. After all, she is one of the princess of the Robinson family. Though, they are not as powerful as the Miller, they are also well respected in the society.

"Well let see, if Sheldon will have a change of heart once he sleep with you and find out that you're no longer pure. The conservative and kind hearted Bernice package will crumble. Tsk...tsk...tsk...He sure will be asking when did it happened." It is not something that she take great pleasure in telling but Bernice is not leaving her alone with her broken heart.

Bernice glare at Eunice, for reminding her. It is a mistake that she regretted since purity is very important to the Miller family. She is young and curious at that time.

Another point for me. Eunice said to herself as she render Bernice speechless with her remarks.

"If you'll excuse me." Eunice prepare to exit the powder room. "I'll congratulate you but I guess its too early for that. She smile as she tried to pissed off Bernice more. Gloating at her sister's expression.

"Just wait Eunice, I'll vanish you in our life." Said Bernice angrily looking at close door. She needs to think of the plan on how she can make Eunice disappear and how to deal with Sheldon regarding their family's firm stands on purity. For Christ sakes, its the 21st century but their belief is still archaic.

It is non-negotiable with grandpa and grandma Miller. Though now that we are engage, they allow me to stay with Sheldon to get more familiar on how to run the household and with the new responsibility of being Mrs. Miller.

"Ouch" Eunice woke up with an aching body. She is sore all over. What did I do last night, did I run a marathon. She ask herself. She stretch her her arms and it bumps onto something soft and warm. She immediately look to her right and saw a sleeping Sheldon.

Flashes of what happened last night came to her mind. She went upstair to rest for a while before going home, her parents leave earlier after the announcement, she stayed since Lindsey and Mark are still with her. Since she consumed alcohol that beyonds her limit, Aunt Sol suggest to her to rest in her room before going home. She doesn't want to but Aunt Sol insisted so she went upstair to rest in the room that she normally use during sleepover with the Miller. She and Bernice has their own room in the Miller residence since childhood. Aunt Sol doesn't have a daughter so she doted on them.

On the way to her room, someone grabbed her and kissed her deeply. She tried to struggle but her strength is no match with her attacker. She tried to relax and think of her next step but she caught the man's scent and she became familiar with him.

"Sheldon, stop! Its me." She tried to reason out but it seems that the man is only consume with his desire.

Her resolve, not to give in with Sheldon's touch is slowly drifting away. It seems that the man is intoxicated and only answer to his lust

"Is this my last chance." Her stupid and hopeful heart thought "The Miller will surely take responsibility and marry us instead. Opportunity only knocks one and beside, I am not the one who initiate this coupling." She tried to reason out, her heart that is helplessly in love with Sheldon lost all the rational thinking.

"Last chance." she close her eyes and respond to Sheldon's advances. They made love until dawn, until their body can't take it and sleep takeover their senses.

Now waking up, she smile thinking of the night before. I guess I can really get whatever I want. Eunice told herself. She look around to find something that she can wear, since she needs to pee and she is not comfortable walking to the loo in her naked form. She can't help but blushed.

While she is in the loo, Eunice remember her 7AM zoom meeting with the Bennison Co. for their jewelry line design, looking at her watch, she still has 20 minutes to get ready. Once she's done washing her face, she pick up her clothes and went to her room. Thanks to Aunt Sol, she has fresh clothes in the Miller residence .

Once she's done with a quick shower, she goes to the library room to borrow Sheldon's extra laptop. She ask the maid for a coffee to start her day. It was a successful meeting, she's able to get the client design preference and agreed on the deadline.

"I hope Sheldon is now awake so we can talk about what happened." Eunice talk to herself. She went to the kitchen to get breakfast for Sheldon. She knew that Sheldon will not function well without his shots of coffee.

"See, I can be a good wife." Eunice smile with her thought.

She opened the door to Sheldon's room. "Okay you can go now." Eunice said and took the tray of food without looking at the helper. She doesn't need to explain her action to them.

Her smile disappear when she enters Sheldon's room. There on the bed is Sheldon and Bernice, sleeping together. Both naked. Due to shock, she dropped the tray of food causing the couple to wake up.

Sheldon, automatically get up on sitting position and look at the source of noise.

"Eunice what are you doing here?" Sheldon angrily ask Eunice, what trick is she playing again, he has headache and not in the mood to deal with Eunice's trick. Due to his abrupt action, the blanket that covers Bernice body got pulled out showing her naked upper body. He immediately covers Bernice body. "Sorry babe." he sweetly said to Bernice while he shouted at Eunice.

"Get out! Don't you have some decency."

Eunice look at Sheldon. Why is he mad at me after what happened to them last night. She tried to compose herself and think of something to say.

"Babe don't be mad at Eunice, I think she just want to surprise us with breakfast in bed." Bernice get up, hold Sheldon arm and tried to calm him down.

"Probably, Eunice is shock seeing us in bed though its not something so shocking, as she has her own adventures, its our bad not to lock the door. Bernice continue to appease Sheldon

"Sheldon, don't you remember what happened last night." Eunice ignore Bernice and ask Sheldon. She has an inkling on where the situation is going. Please remember it. She silently pray.

"Of course I do, Bernice and I got engage, though not on my plan, we slept together, someone spike my drink." He is not happy with it but what's done is done. "Sorry babe! We'll arrange our marriage as soon as possible. And I promised it will be grand and your dream wedding.

"No, you cannot marry her. You have to marry me." Eunice objected "I'll tell Uncle Ed and Aunt Sol." She sounded so desperate and she doesn't care, it will be her last card and she needs to play it well. She already gave her everything to Sheldon

"Not marry my fiance, who are you, my mother."

"But you slept with me. What does it mean. " She knew that Sheldon probably, not in the right state of mind last night but still they slept together, not just once. Several times that she lost to count. Now it seems nothings happened.

"Sleep with you, you're dreaming." I sleep with someone last night, yes but I slept with my fiance. Don't make stories. Stop this.

"You slept with me not with Bernice. I woke up early since I had to attend to some important meetings so I had to go to the library...."

"Once again, stop your delusion." He shouted again. "I will not sleep with you even in my intoxicated mind. You're dirty. Sheldon stop her explanation, if looks could kill she will probably dead now with the anger on his eyes.

"Dirty! You slept with my dirty body several time. Does it means, you're dirty too." She is hurt by Sheldon low treatment on her.

"If I slept with you, like your dreaming, there will be no blood stain on the bed, since you like to sleep around with men. How many men did you slept with. Can't they satisfied you and you still want to hook with me even after I repeatedly turn you down." Added Sheldon, his word is like a knife in her heart that he push deeper. It hurt so much.

She slap Sheldon. She didn't expect her action but he made her so angry. If he doesn't want to believe me so be it.

"What's happening here." Uncle Ed ask looking at the three of them.

"Goodness! Sheldon, I know I like grandchildren, you work fast" Aunt Sol happily said looking at Sheldon and Bernice state of undress

They are speechless and didn't know how to answer the elder.

Eunice looked at the elder, there's no way that she can convince them that she is the one that slept with Sheldon last night.

I guess its Karma! Her plans backfired at her. She lost her V-card, my ace and still not get the man that she love.

"So..." Uncle Ed is waiting for an answer. Before Sheldon and Bernice could answer and make her look bad in front of Uncle Ed and Aunt Sol, Eunice spoke first.

"Uncle.....I- I prepare breakfast for them but I drop it.

"Oh, silly child, you are probably shock when you see them. Come here, let's have some breakfast, let's leave the couple so they can tidy themselves." Aunt Sol said and pull Eunice outside the room.

Once, they are outside, she can't help but cry her frustration.

"Sssshhh, I know that you also like Sheldon, no worries, we will help you find your special man. You will have someone to love you." Aunt Sol hugged her and empathize with how she feels.

Her broken heart are now broken into tiny small pieces. Unrepairable.

Sheldon, who stand up to close the door after them heard his mother statement. He doesn't want his mother to find someone for Eunice. Because, with all the ruckus that she cause in his life, she didn't deserve to be happy right away. I want her to suffer for an indefinite time. He will make sure of it.

Thinking on how she look defeated in the end, he can't help but felt pity for Eunice. Did she really love him or it is just her capricious. We've been playing cat and mouse since we were young. When did she turn her feeling for him.

"Babe...." shouted Bernice. Sheldon is so absorbed with thinking about Eunice that he doesn't heard Bernice when she call him first.

Looking at the naked Bernice, he doesn't feel any desire right now to take her. How come last night and this morning, I can not get enough of her. Maybe I am tired and my desire is already satiated.

"I'll use the bathroom first." Sheldon said. He went to the bathroom instead of the bed with the naked Bernice.

Sheldon doesn't sleep around. He doesn't like fooling around with someone that he doesn't like. He didn't like it the first time he lose his V-card. For him it was a waste on his time and energy to sleep around with someone that he never love. There was actually no full with those women that throw themselves at his feet.

Actually even with Bernice, last night is the first time that he felt the need to take her, to possess her and to imprint himself to her. He felt revive after and He want to feel again. Maybe after they both get enough sleep.

"Okay, there's a lot of people here. Hold each other sweetie. Devin hold Andrei and Andrei hold mommy's hand. Eddy hold my other hand. Mommy will cry non-stop if one got lost." Eunice instructed her children.

They arrived at A City airport at around 10AM, it will be around this time when she left A City, 5 years ago. She has mixed feeling at her decision to go back. Her father is sick and he requested to her to go home. She felt guilty that she is not home to help her mother take care of her father.

She's a new person. She felt she no longer belong in the Robinson household or in A City, probably because she's been hurt too much here.

She already created a new life in America. 5 years ago, after she went home that dreadful day, she contacted Lindsey and told her decision. She booked ticket right away. She told her parents about going abroad on the day of her departure which is the following day. She gives no room for negotiation about her decision.

Her father got angry with her decision but she is firm on it. Though she keeps sending them a postcard and call them occasionally over skype, it took her father 3 years to forgive her.

Going back make her remember the painful event, but she needs to be strong, not just for herself but for her three kids. Her family is not aware of her 3 gems. It will be a surprise that could lead to acceptance or another cold shoulder from her father.

But she has a strong feelings that her kids will charm her parents and will accept them right away. She has 3 adorable and smart kids. They are identical but unlike her relationship with her sister, her 3 kids love each other. She make sure of it, with love and a little blackmail.

"Mommy, is this where you grow up." Andrei, the eldest by 15 minutes ask. With his age, he is mature enough to learn their situation. He is a reliable kid and always there to help his mommy keep his siblings in line. Like, if there will be assignment in school, he help his brothers finish it so when mommy gets home. She will not worry about it and just rest.

"Yes, sweetie. We will go to grandpa's house."

"Are we going to stay there." Devin ask. Her peacemaker. Probably because he is the middle child. He is the negotiator, if there will be conflict between Andrei and Eddy. He made sure that they always make up.

"Hmmm, depends if you kids will charm grandpa and grandma. We will stay there, but if not, Aunt Lindsey offer a place for us to stay until we go back to US.

"We will charm grandpa and grandma. We will make them love us mommy! Said Eddy her charming little boy. Eddy is the mischievous one, always playful and love attention.

Whenever they go out, the three kids never failed to catch the attention of the general public. There is also a talent scout that offer them career in the entertainment industry, but she doesn't need that extra attention. As much as possible she doesn't want them to be exposed. Less chance of their father finding them.

Though she carried them for 9 months, they are a small replica of their father. So before going back to A City, she had a serious talk with her kids. She explain their situation. Their father has his own family and we cannot intrude.

They can see their father but they cannot call him father or tell him that they are their kids. It will be unavoidable that they will meet since he is her sister husband. It is bound to happen. She avoid getting news from her parents about Sheldon and Bernice, whenever she talk to them. She probably move out of their ancestral home.

The kids was sad but they accepted it. To ensure that Sheldon will not get any hint about his children, she dye her kids hair blonde and ask them to wear glasses.

Since they have fair complexion they look like an american babies. She told them that they can only remove the eye glasses, in their room but when they go out, they need to always wear it outside.

She told them, that if their father found them, he might take them away from mommy and daddy will not allow mommy to see them. Mommy will have a broken heart and will be sad and they don't want it to happen. Her kids is her life now.

She show them, picture of their father and his wife. They said she look a little like Bernice.

She no longer identical with her sister, she altered her appearance with a little surgery to make her face thinner by removing the extra muscles in her face. Before she has a round face now her jawline is more define. Due to weather in america her complexion is more lighter compare before. She also now wear eye glass.

She remember him saying that she always in the shadow of her sister and that Bernice can't get the spotlight that she deserves.

If her parents will allow, she will have a full plastic surgery but her father forbid her. She only mentioned it out of the blue when she still live in A City.

"Here we are." She didn't advise them of her arrival so her parents will be surprised. Well they will be surprise no matter what.

She pay the taxi driver and help her children. Looking at their parking space, it seems that her parents has visitor.

She is hesitant to enter the house. Why didn't she accept Lindsey suggestion to stay with them first so she has time to prepare herself.

"Wow, mommy they have big house." Andrei commented. Compare to their house in amerika, their house is just a helper quarters.

"Cool, we'll be living here." Eddy said.

"They have expensive cars too." Devin said, looking at the car that park at their guest designated parking.

"How did you know that its expensive." She ask her son

"Google" Devin answered

"Its a guest car. I wonder, if we're intruding, it seems they are busy." Eunice commented, the car seems familiar but she can't remember who owns it. It is her home for the last 22 years, how come she don't feel at home anymore.

"Mommy, come on, we are here so we need to go inside." Eddy encourage his mommy, he is curious on what the house looks like inside.

Before she can respond. Mrs. Holland saw them.

"My Euni, you're back." Eunice got a hugged from Mrs Holland before she can acknowledge her.

"I miss you, the house is not the same without you." She looked at her lovingly with tears in her eyes "You look different."

"Yes, Nans. I look more beautiful and sexier." Due to her pregnancy, her hips and boobs got a little bigger.

"Whose these three adorable kids." She looked at the three kids one by one.

"Oh, they are my kids. This Andrei, Devin and Eddy. They are triplets. She introduce her kids.

"Wow, your parents will be surprised, but I'm sure they will be happy, looking at this 3 kids, you're misgivings will be atoned. They are waiting and praying for a grandchild since Sheldon and Bernice wedding.

"Let's get inside, and speaking of your sister, they are here.

Of all the days, why today. She said inwardly. Well this will be the test for them. She looked at kids to give them warning, to remind them of their talk about their father.

She didn't give notification regarding her arrival but it seems that everyone is at home to welcome them. When they enter, her parents, Sheldon parents and the couple is at the living room.

"Surprise." She smile awkwardly at everyone

"My baby, is that really you." Her mother, ask not trusting het eyes.

"Yes, mommy. I promise to go home, so here I am." She hugged her mother.

"Dad" she also went to his father that sitting in the wheelchair and hug him tightly. "I miss you, even though you don't want to talk to me over the phone."

She nodded her "Hello" with Sheldon and Bernice, she cant bring herself to be chummy with them.

"Uncle and Auntie." She also hug the other two elder.

The greetings is done and she don't know how to proceed. She needs to tell them the kids before they wonder around the house. Her kids is the most curious one.

"Mom and Dad, I would to introduce you to someone... She cough, clearing her throat "My kids...

"Kids" they said at the same time

"As in plural" her mother stated

"Eunice, what are you doing in America." Her dads tone become serious. "Why did you not mentioned it over phone. This is what I don't like to happened that you ruin your future.

Sheldon and Bernice, stay quite but Sheldon expression became stoic.

"Hon, calm down." Her mother tried to pacify her father and for that she is thankful.

"And why did you cut your hair this short, you look like an antagonist in a drama.

She smile, when did her father watch drama "It's stressful to care for the kids, I'm getting hair fall that's why I need to cut it short. But I'm still pretty, right Uncle." She ask her Uncle for back up to loosen up the situation.

"Yes, always." He didn't agreed with what happened to his niece life but he didn't need to add pressure to the situation.

"Where are the kids, I'm so excited to meet them." Aunt Sol ask her. "We didn't foresee that you're gonna give us grandchildren first.

"With her behaviour before, its bound to happen." Sheldon said, she doesn't like the tone of his voice but she opted to ignore him.

He is no longer important, just ignore him, she pep talk herself.

Sheldon, didn't like being ignore, so he decided to talk to her alone later. They have scores that they need to settle and its long overdue.

"Nans" she call Mrs Holland "Bring them here."

"Them" her mother asked

"Yes, they are triplets."

The kids joined the elder. They are not the shy type so they introduce themselves one by one, then kiss the elder. They look so adorable.

They want to ignore the couple, since they saw a while ago how they are treating their mommy. But to be polite thet just greet them "Hello"

"Wow, from zero grandchild to three adorable kids. How old are you?

"4" "3" "5" the triplets answered at the same time. They didn't talk about it.

"They are 3 years old." She answered, she lessen their age by one year to avoid suspicion. "Hahaha, they are still learning numbers so they are still confuse, but they are three.

"What's with glasses." Aunt Sol asked

"They are corrections glasses and since they wear one that's why I also wear one." She explained.

"Where is their father?" Her father asked, Though the kids are adorable, and he like them, he wanted to know what happened to the kids father.

"We broke up when I found out I was pregnant. He has someone already and I don't want to disturb his life. I am happy, they are my blessing and I really don't want to share them with him. He can have his own son with his new partner." It was almost the truth, he found out when he was in the U.S.

He want to go back and tell him about the pregnancy. Once more, she want to get her chance to be with him but then she remember how he judge her to be loose. He didn't believe that he slept with her, what more about being my kids father.

She cried as she refrain herself from going home.

She was thankful to God that, she was with Lindsey during those tough times. Reminding her to be strong. Giving her support throughout her pregnancy journey.

Looking at how happy, both set of grandparents, her awkwardness with Sheldon surpass the happiness that she is seeing in her parents eyes.

"We haven't prepare room for the kids. Nans, call Stephen and instruct him to prepare the room next to Eunice room." Her mother instruct Mrs Holland

"Mom, don't worry about it. They can stay in my room while we're here.

"While we're here... You mean, you still plan to go back.

"I only applied for two months leave from work while the kids is on summer break." She explained.

"You can go back here and help your sister, manage the company." Her father interrupted. "The presidency is been waiting for you."

She look at his father, "presidency", Bernice has been managing the company with their father since they graduated in college, arent she supposed to be the next CEO.

"But dad, managing it, is not my forte. Bernice has been doing it since she graduated.

"Its your legacy so you need to learn how to do it.

She got more confuse. Is it also Bernice legacy, why did her father puts too much pressure on me. "I'm into jewelry design, father not textile."

"Then its a good thing that our new business venture with Sheldon is in jewelry industry, you can help him. And there will be someone here to take care of the kids."

"Dad, I have a work abroad, my life is no longer here." She said in a low voice, she doesn't want to do anything with Sheldon, much to work with him.

"I'm old, Eunice, and we need you here, it's time that you go back. I gave you enough time to figure out things and do whatever that you want, now its your time to help our business.

When her fathers tone is final, it will be hard to object.

"Daddy, I'm still on vacation." She tried to change tactic since her father is getting agitated. "Can we talk about this after my two months leave is up."

"You have one week to rest." Sheldon said suddenly, "then come to the office, we have upcoming launching in a month and we cant wait for your decision in two months."

"Dad... she tried to protest to her father. Sheldon doesn't have the right to command her. He is not her boss.

"Sheldon is right, come to work after a week, we proceed with this venture because of you. I want you to stay here and do what you like. Don't you think I didn't know what you like to do. This is your home and your life is here with us." Her father said with softness in his voice.

Sheldon, quietly look at Eunice. Did he push Eunice too far that she no longer feel happy with them and that she felt that she no longer belong in this family. She went abroad immediately after their disagreement.

He knew the news, 2 weeks after her departure, when they had dinner at the Robinson residence to finalize their wedding date. He felt the void and miss her sassy behaviour but he disregard it. Eunice decision is better for them. He focus on work and his wedding.

Bernice and I tie the knot a year after but Eunice didn't go home to attend their wedding nor congratulate them. He got angry but his friend remind him that it will for the better. If Eunice is here, she will just ruin his wedding.

He felt empty and he doesn't know why. He associated it with not having a kid yet. Bernice and I works hard to start a family. They visited different doctor and even take herbal medicine but they are still unsuccessful.

Until they stop trying. That's the last advise they got. The more you plan it, the more that it wont happen. They have been married for 4 years now and still childless.

At the back of his mind, he thought that maybe its because he doesn't feel the spark when they made love. It is not like the first time that they did it. He didn't feel the full. Now whenever they do it, it is like an obligatory sex, and mostly initiated by Bernice. He doesn't feel excited. It is like he is asking for more and Bernice cannot give it.

He doesn't have any relationship aside from what he has with Bernice so he didn't know if its normal to feel tired of their relationship.

His friend advise him to go vacation and they did. They went to Paris for a week but it didn't spike any spark. They felt like an old couple.

Looking at Eunice and her kids, he felt the longing to have a family.

Eunice look at her mother. "No worries, baby I will take good care these adorable kids plus Nans is here. We will find good school here.

"Ahm, mom I need to pee." Andrei act as if he will pee in the living room any moment.

"Okay, let's go." she get up to help her son

"Mom, I'm grown up, I'm not supposed to show my tweety to a girl." He complained, she knew that, her sons are all independent, but she will just show her where the comfort room is.

"I know, mommy will just show where the CR is and will guard the door, in case someone peep on your tweety. Come on." But he refused to go with her. Looking at her son, she knew that he is planning to do something.

"I can go with him." Sheldon volunteer, for some unknown reason, he like the kids, too bad he is not their father. They have been wanting to have kids for such a long time and seeing one close up, spike his fatherly instinct.

"No need...

"Sure...

Eunice and Andrei said at the same time. She look at her son, to see what he is up to but her sons just smile at her.

Andrei get up and went to his father to take his hand. He look up at him with a mischievous smile. You're bullying my mommy. I'll get revenge.

Walking to the comfort room, they pass-by a full length mirror. Andrei look at their image in the mirror and felt sad.

So this is how we look, if we have a father. He said in his mind, looking at their reflection.

Despite the blonde and the eye glass, he felt that they still alike. Their daddy is very tall and handsome and matched his mommy's beauty. And with his body, he can definitely protect his mommy.

Too bad, he doesn't want us.

"Common, faster I think I cannot make it to the comfort room." He urge his father to walk fast.

"Hold it, where almost there." He pick up Andrei so they can reach the CR faster. He walk with big strides

"Okay, here we are." He put down the kid so he can do his business.

"I cant open my pants. Help me please, I need to pee now." He squirm his legs to show that he really meany it.

Sheldon move to squat so he can be with the child level and help him to unzip his pants. Once it is open, he put down the childs pants with his undergarment so he can pee.

Woooshhh....

"Aaahhhh'' He can pee but not on his face, reflexively, he back off but the pee just spread on his polo.

"Sorry, I cant hold it anymore." Andrei said apologetically. "Serves you right." He added but on his mind only. "Don't bully my mommy again. I will be her protector until you realize that we are your family" Still on his mine only but he gave his father his angelic smile.

He needs to make a plan with his brother, to make their father realize that he needs to be together with their mommy so they be a happy family. So they don't need to go back to America.

Though they have friends and they like their school in the U.S. He like it more here in A City. They have 2 sets of grandparent that love them right away, Aunt Lindsey is also here in A City and their house is big.

Most specially, their daddy is here. Mommy needs special someone to love her.

Uncle Mark is nice, he buys them plenty of toys and treat them to delicious food, but he still want his real daddy not just step father. What if he has his own son, what will happen to us.

But for it to happen, they need to help his mother.

"Oh, what happened to you." Aunt Sol ask her son, when she saw the wet look on her son.

"That would be my fault, I peed on him." Sheldon look murderous to Andrei, they talk that he would not mention, what happened but the mischievous kids open his mouth as soon as they appear in the living room.

"Hahaha, that would be your nappy practice son, when you have your own baby. Babies open do that to his father." Uncle Ben said

Eunice gave an uncomfortable smile. May be she needs to talk to her sons again to remind them to less to none, interaction with their father. She is aware, that it might be unfair to the kids, not being recognize by their father, but it will be for the best.

Looking at the dark expression on Bernice, she is definite that she doesn't want her around. Eunice showing with three kids makes her hate more since she cant give to Sheldon a child.

She is infertile. Sheldon and her had a check up but she doctored her result, making it look that they don't have a problem, it is just that God is not yet giving them the gift of parenthood.

Her mother in law, gave her lots of booster medicine, she take it and it keeps filing on her cabinet. What's the use of those medicine, if she cant bear a child.

She discussed adoption with Sheldon but it is something that he is not ready. He still want to try their own child.

Looking at the three kids, she can feel that there is something off to them that she can't pin point. She tried to interact with them but they ignore her. Rude, just like their mother.

When, she saw Sheldon with one of the kid, she felt threaten that Eunice came back to take what belongs to her. The company, Sheldon and everyone's attention. She needs to drive her away again.

She did it before, she can do it again.
