“Welcome to Spook-a-Rama!” a staff at the entrance greets us when he sees us. He sets his last ride off on track and comes to us, he requests, “Tickets?”
Daniella raises her hand and spreads the two tickets we got from the Grim Reaper earlier in a fan shape.
In an excited tone she shows them to him, “We got this!”
As the staff sees our tickets, he widens his eyes, “Oh, free

Three minutes. The whole ride was three minutes in that haunted house.I thought it would be overwhelmingly crazy, yet my sight was blocked out by Daniella’s body for the whole journey, I did not see a thing inside. All I can tell is it was dark and loud.Daniella told me afterwards, there actually were zombies, orges, demons, and other creatures.Well, not seeing them might be a good thing for me, I was actually going to shut my eyes anyway. Daniella’s body saved me from nightmares.Not only her body saved me from nightmares, it took away my senses for quite a while too.Although the scare during the ride wasn’t overwhelming, yet the reac

I collect Marie from the pet hotel right away after we return to the hotel building.We had fun, and we had a teary moment too, we’re both exhausted. I watch Daniella return to her room before Marie and I return to ours.After I feed Marie with her meal and switch the smart cat toy for her, I undress myself and put myself to bath.Hot steam surges up, warmth blows against my face. I walk into the shower and close my eyes. The water drops on my head and flows down my body following the line of my muscles.“Hah...”I open my eyes again when I brush my short brunette hair to the back. Deeply, I exhale.

It is when I look at the clock on my phone when I come to find I woke up late the next morning.Marie sits on my back and scratches my shoulders with her claws, telling me to wake up and feed her.I stretch my arm to the back and pat her head, “Yes, yes, Master Marie… Your servant has risen.”Even though Jamie is not around, I still work for his cat, don’t I? I can’t help but think, this is definitely a conspiracy Jamie and Marie plot against me.Brilliant. Worthy of being the CEO’s cat, Marie.After I get up and feed Marie, I put on the robe and sit down at the coffee table. I hold a cup of hot tea in one hand, and my p

As the dark paints the sky black, I arrive at the Grand Nouvelle Hotel, where Jamie is staying.As I know Jamie till now, he is a very punctual person. In order to impress him, I arrived fifteen minutes earlier than the time we agreed on.While I’m sitting inside this luxurious car waiting for him, I look into the rear mirror to ensure that the mole under the tail of my left eyebrow has been completely covered under the concealer I applied on it.I am perfect. We’ve been quite a long way down this road, yet Jamie never once suspected me to be Henrietta. If the mole stays hidden, nothing between Henry Nosrevi and Jamie will go wrong.Well, at least I believe so.

“Complicated?” I squint at him in doubt, I whisper, “Other than your brother nagging, is anyone in the family treating you badly?”Whereas Jamie suddenly chuckles, “No, it’s not like that.” he then explains, “As you might know, I am the youngest child in the family. My father, my brother, and even my stepmother, they always treat me like a baby, like a…”He pauses, touching his chin, searching through his brain for a word suitable to be used in the sentence.When he finally found one, he mentions, “Like a little princess.”A little princess?Princess?

Air flow, machines, birds chirping, and a woman sobbing… Those are the first things that come into my ear when I gradually return to my consciousness.They sound really vague at first, but turn louder after as I slowly open my eyes too.There, I find myself in a ward bed. My face is covered with an oxygen mask.

It is almost midnight when I sit in my living room alone, waiting for Jamie’s butler to show up. It is always a quiet night like this that makes people feel lonely, isn’t it? Tears ooze out of my eyes abruptly, they trickle down my face one after another. No matter how many times I wipe them off, no matter how hard I try to stop myself from crying, my tears just won’t stop. I cover my face with my palms to cover my sound, I sob as quietly as I can, not hoping to wake Jamie up. I try to stop myself by clearing my head, yet every quiet moment like this keeps reminding me of the fact that we’ve just lost our child. Our dear child… If you can hear us,

“Jamie…”Not knowing how much time has passed, I gradually woke up when I heard myself mumbling.I first feel my senses are unblocked, just like when one who sinks in the ocean for a long time gets back up from the water.The next thing I feel... is my body covered in pain, especially my head.“Umm…”Holding the pain back, slowly, I try to open my eyes.It is the moment when I open my eyes again, bright light seeps into my eyes. I squint into the light, my eyes take quite a while to adapt to the light.
