Love is strong .....

She tried to take a step back only to feel the door against her back, from her eye level she could only see his chest "Don't look up," she thought but her head has a mind of its own and slowly moved to meet Do Yun's gaze.

"You don't know how to open the door? Please press the button before turning the doorknob." and Do Yun was able to open the door.

"Oh..... thank you, Mr. Kim."

Do Yun headed out to the door thus she hurriedly followed.

Ae Cha and the children have now settled in the car and just waiting for Do Yun, all of the house staff have gone down to say goodbye to their bosses also.

Before Do Yun got in the car, he went back to Amor "You need to be here when I come back, I'll bring a pair of socks for you as a souvenir."

"Huh?" Amor is about to let out a laugh but Do Yun looked serious thus she just took a deep breath. "Uhm..... thank you, Mr. Kim."

Do Yun turned his back against her and sighed in frustration, "Yangmal han kyeolle? (pair of socks)?" he asked himself.

When Do Yun got in the car, they left immediately and all the house staff bowed to say goodbye.

As Amor promised to Do Yun, she made sure that the house transfer is successful before she takes her vacation and even took pictures of before, during, and after the transfer. Waiting for the trip bound to Daanbantayan in the North Terminal 1st of November 2022 Tuesday 9:34 am, there were more passengers today than the usual because of the holiday. It has been a year ago since she traveled to the city and although she is traveling alone she is not anxious compared to what she felt before since she will be going back home at long last. Seated at the 5th column 5th row on the right side of the driver she took the window seat. Clink clink clink. The bus inspector hits the bar handle of the door that signals the bus is now departing. Amor is wide awake for the whole trip and took notice of where they at during the travel. With a speed of 50-60kph, Amor did not even budge as the bus traveled down the cemented sometimes rugged zigzag road. Amor thought about the compensation discussed to her by HR and she was offered a salary base of Php15,000. She will no longer be entitled to COLA, but will still receive holiday pays, premium pays, overtime pays, night shift differential pays, 13th-month pays, retirement pays, rest days will still be the same, free meals will still be provided by the company, and leave benefits. She will also receive a scholarship grant offering 2 year Office Administration course and if one of her children will be accepted as a school companion then that would make 2 of them scholars under Do Yun's company. "How can anyone say no to that offer?" she thought.

For what seemed like an eternity, she finally arrived and can see her house from the highway. Her mother and all her kids are waiting outside waving back at her, "They're all grown up now," she told herself. "Henry, Olivia, Emma, Jacob, Michael!!!!!" she called all of them out one by one and they all ran toward her. "Ma, you're finally home!" Emma hugged her tightly. "Yes, my child and I will never leave you again," said teary-eyed Amor.

Bang. Bang. Bang.

He is banging on the door again to get her attention, "It's either a bang or a driiiiin that can wake me up," she thought.

Just by the sound of the knock, she knows immediately that the person responsible for such a scandalous sound is under the influence of alcohol. "Some things never change," she told herself. With no hesitation, she got up from the bed and gave a weary look at her children still sound asleep. "Will I still be able to get them out from this situation?" she thought. A house that only has an area of 25 square meters will only take 5-10 steps from their room to the door, "He could not even walk properly without the crutches yet he still managed to be the town's drunkard," she told herself. When she opened the door Theo was already lying on the ground, scratching her head and stretching her arms Amor then put Theo's right arm over her shoulders to help him get inside.

"Help yourself and go inside the room to rest, I'll prepare breakfast for the children," but before Amor could take a step toward the kitchen Theo grabbed her neck.

"You just arrived from work and this is how you treat me!" Amor then tried to pull herself away from her husband but he just pulled her back with more strength this time.

"I asked you, is this how you treat me?!" Amor pushed her husband which caused him to lose his balance and fell to the floor.

"Uhm..... Theo I'm sorry let me help you up....." But this just angered Theo more and grabbed his crutches to hit Amor's stomach.

"Ah.....," Amor shrieked in pain and caused her to kneel which gave Theo a chance to grab her hair and pin her down the floor.

"I will ask you again, is this how you treat me?" with a smirk on his face he reached inside her skirt and pulled her underwear down.

"Theo stop! The children will wake up now," Amor begged her husband. But he just pressed his body against her and unzipped his pants. Amor can only wiggle her body to try and escape from her husband but to no avail yet she pleaded again.

"Theo please stop!" tears are about to well up from the corner of her eyes. But the more that she pleads the more Theo seemed to get excited knowing that she looked helpless right before his eyes. He then spread her legs, reached out between her thighs, slid his finger inside, and penetrated his rod successfully multiple times until he cummed at his own satisfaction. After he has been released from his stress, he let go of Amor and helped himself up to go inside their room to sleep. Amor can only give a sigh of temporary relief while putting her underwear back on, she then helped herself up to take a seat on their sofa. As much as she would like to keep her family together, she doesn't want her children to grow up seeing her being abused this way. Thinking of Do Yun's offer to her she can't help but shed tears again, "If only I can bring all my children with me," she told herself.

What has life to offer her, is being with Do Yun a safer choice?
