“Here’s the key to your father’s office, Miss. We maintained cleaning it without moving or touching any of the things.” I nodded. “I’ll leave you here first, Miss. I have a meeting with one of the sponsors.” when Aki left me, I stared at the door in front of then glanced at the keys on my hand.
It’s been three days since I got discharged. I would have liked to go here the next day since I got out of the hospital, but my body is not yet fully recovered to travel, so I postponed it and decided to go here today.
I stand in front of the door for a couple of seconds before getting the urge to open it. When I opened the door, I was greeted by a fragrant smell. I wasted no time and quickly entered.
When I entered, I suddenly stopped, and for some unknown reason, tears suddenly dripped from my eyes. I can feel my father’s presence. I know it’s been a l
“Young Miss, the person you have been waiting for is already here.” one of the maids said. I turned my eyes on her and stopped from slicing the cake. “He was waiting in the living room.” the maid added. I nodded at her.“Sure. Thank you so much.” after I said those words, the maid left immediately. I finished slicing the cake and placed it on the plate. I let out a deep sigh and took myself out of the kitchen.I thought of giving this recorder yesterday to Alchy, but I remembered that he was not in the City. When I sent him a message, he immediately told me that he would be at Tranquil today.We exchanged contact information the last time. I didn’t know that I would open it to Alchy and Zygo since I thought the gang would be the last to enter my list of friends. One thing that I’ve learned, as long as you live, a lot of plot twists in your life will happen
It’s been three months since everything was at peace. It’s also been that long since I last saw Zygo. I don’t know where he is or what he is doing right now. We exchanged our contact numbers, but I did not get a message coming from him until now. The truth is, is he okay?I shrugged and let out a deep sigh as I stared in front of me. “What am I even doing here?” I mumbled to myself. I was currently standing in front of the ZF Hotel. The place where Zygo and I first met.I don’t know what’s going on with me, but I really want to see that person. Maybe, I got so close to them, and I couldn’t admit it to myself before. I let out another deep sigh and stared at the entrance of the hotel for a couple of seconds before I took myself inside.When I entered, there were no other people except those in the reception area. I walked quickly over there.
“Where have you been?” I immediately asked Zygo after getting ourselves to his hotel’s dining area. We are currently at his private part of the area, facing each other while separated with a rounded marble table.Zygo stared at me with a smile forming on his lips. By his reaction, I already knew what was on his mind at this instant. “Why? Did you miss me?” he asked with a grin on his face. I was right, and he never changed.I just raised my left brow. I was about to speak out the words that I used to do, but something was playing inside my mind. Maybe there’s nothing wrong with it since we are already friends.I flashed a smirk. “Am I not allowed to miss you?” I almost burst into laughter when I saw how his expression changed. I know that he has feelings for me, but honestly, I can’t pay it back to him on how he looked at me. “Is my words enough to f
I was currently packing my things because tomorrow is when we will travel out of the City. Alchy, Zygo, Jay, and Aki will also be with us. We plan to stay there for a week, and the place that we will be waiting for is already settled by my father’s former colleague.I can’t help being excited just by thinking that we will visit my father’s rest place; my heart is already hyperventilating. I let out a deep sigh and continued packing my things.“Maybe, this stuffs are enough for a week,” I mumbled to myself after a couple of minutes of packing my things. I let out a deep sigh and turned my gaze to the side when I heard an engine. Because of curiosity, I stood up from sitting on the bed and immediately took myself to the terrace.I quickly peeked outside and saw a black Lamborghini who had just parked in front of our house. I was confused for a couple of seconds, thinking who might
“Good morning, Mom and Aki.” I greeted my mother, who had just arrived in the living room with Aki. I immediately glanced at Jay, “Get the things to the car, Jay.” I said, and he nodded, then started taking the things out. “How’s your sleep, mom?” I asked as I brought my eyes back to my mother.She sat on the sofa. “I slept well, sweetheart. Thinking about today excites me, so I tried my best to have a good rest so that I won’t be exhausted on the trip.” my mother sat on the sofa with a smile on her face. She’s been waiting for the day to start. I smiled at her because I feel the same way too.When Jay finished carrying the things to the car, my mother instructed the maids again. After that, we immediately take ourselves outside. “Where’s Aki?” my mother said as Jay started the engine.“Oh, right,” Jay said.
“How have you been?” my mother asked Dielo while we were sitting in front of the table, having dinner. “You did not even think about visiting me,” she added, and I could feel the sadness in her voice. I don’t know, but I think they are close to each other in the past and even now.“I’m sorry for that, Andrea. I couldn’t go back to the City because of what happened six years ago. I need to recover from the bomb because I got traumatized when Galeo died in front of me. The explosion was too loud and made me lose my mind for a while. I just got myself back, and the first thing I did was go back to the City and then meet Gandhara. I want to see you, but I do not know where is your home.” after Uncle Dielo’s long litany, he eats while staring directly into my mother’s eyes.The five of us remained silent while eating. I was beside my mother while Aki and Jay were
“Good morning, Mom and Aki.” I greeted them when they woke up since I got up first.“Good morning, Miss,” Aki replied while rubbing her eyes.“Good morning too, sweetheart.” my mother mumbled and immediately took herself out of bed. I smiled when she walked over to me and gave me a kiss on the cheeks. “Did you sleep well?” I nodded then she glanced at Aki. “How about you, Aki?”“Yes, Mrs. Alejandro. I had a good sleep. Thank you for asking.” Aki said, then smiled. I was about to speak when someone suddenly knocked on the door.“Breakfast is ready.” I heard Jay say behind the door. “Just come downstairs.” after he said those words, we heard footsteps walking away from our room. I immediately looked at my wristwatch, and it was already eight in the morning.
< Four Years Later >“Mimi!” I immediately stopped what I was doing, took off the mask without hesitation, and turned around. A little girl ran in my direction and hugged my waist when she reached me. “I miss you!” she said while giggling.It was Tanya, Tara’s daughter.I let out a deep sigh and then removed the gloves. “What are you doing here, little one?” I asked as I lowered down my body to level her height. “Mimi is doing dirty work; wouldn’t you mind if you caught that dirt?” she immediately shrugged.“No! I hate dirty, but if I can’t hug you because of that, then I don’t mind getting myself a speck of dirt.” she hissed. How cute! She’s too young to know these kinds of things. I just laughed and then carried her in my arms as I stood.“Just kid
