“Where am I?” I asked as I roamed my eyes on the surroundings.
I saw the commotion outside the door.
I see, I am in the hospital. Doctors and nurses were busy saving people's lives.
“Hospital, my lady,” he replied.
I returned my gaze to my butler who was smiling at me the whole time.
This was the first time that I noticed it, but he was kind of creepy.
“Butler Wong, where have you been the whole time last night?” I asked suspiciously but I did not make it too obvious.
“What do you mean, my lady?” His smile never faded from his lips.
“I won’t say it twice. You know what I mean,” I said coldly.
“By any chance, do you suspect me, my lady?” he asked as his smile was wiped off from his face.
“Is there any reason for me to suspect you, butler Wong?” I retorted his question.
I crossed my arms, not taking my eyes off him as

DOOM The Investigation
After few days, I slowly regained my strength and got discharged from the hospital. I was permitted to take a few days of rest from the house before going back to school. Currently, I’m just hanging out with myself In my room. Enjoying the scent of my beloved books, the aroma of my hot coffee, and the wonderful bliss of the serene ambiance of today's weather. I opened the glass doors of my balcony and was greeted by the rushing uninvited guests called the treacherous breezy winds that usually appear during the season of the rainy days. I love the cold feather-like kisses of the wind as it lightly brushes through my blonde hair and the tips of my porcelain skin. It was refreshing, the ultimate paradise, and my very own haven. The rhythm of the raindrops echoed in my ears like a mellifluous melody that made me dance like I'm grooving in my favorite sonata.

“My lady? Are you alright?” my butler said on the door as he immediately rushed towards the balcony, and helped me get up. “Yes, how did you get here so fast, butler Wong?" I said as I’m trying to adjust my wobbling knees and balance in standing. “I was about to knock when I heard a gunshot so I immediately checked on you,” he explained. “Did they catch the culprit?” I asked as I heaved a long deep sigh, and wiped the sweat on my forehead. “They are still tracing where the sound came from. That person didn’t even bother to use a silencer,” he analyzed as he realized something, “Should I escort you to your room, my lady?” he added. “Thank you,” I uttered as he started to escort me towards my bed. “Don’t worry too much, my lady. We will do our best to catch that person, and make him atone for his crimes.” “Alright. Kindly close and lock the glass door of my balcony,” I ordered him while tucking myself in bed. “Right ahead

I browsed further the pieces of evidence laid on the table, and I saw a photo of a rifle gun. In the picture, it was exposed to be hidden under the thick mat from the trunk of the car. The next photo was a load of bullets from that very same gun on the previous photo. It looked exactly the same as the bullets found on the treehouse and my balcony. Aside from that, another thing caught my attention. A photo of a gas mask on the bed allocated in the sleeping chamber of Alfred. Could it be?... At first glance, I can only think of Alfred immediately as the main suspect because he was after all the one being pointed by the evidences gathered here. It can be believable, yes but not enough to fool me. The pieces of evidence were too accurate to be real. And they missed out on that part in framing

I wonder how were they able to manipulate the people in my household.I didn’t have any idea that they were lurking at my back for a long period of time.“Alfred, do you have a proof for your claims? I will help you if-““My lady! It was not Alfred. The real suspects surrendered themselves just now.” Butler Wong appeared as he caught his breath.“Calm down, Butler Wong. What happened?” I asked calmly as I motioned him to speak slowly.“I didn’t know either. I was surprised to be honest because all along I thought they were my friends. I still can’t believe that they have the intention to harm you, my lady.”“Explain clearly, who are these people? And where are they now?” I asked again.“I think I mentioned them to you before, my lady,” he started while reminiscing, “They are Luisa and Arnold. They surrendered themselves at the station. I just got a call from the police a few minutes ago.”“You did not notice any strange acts from them?” I observed his reactio

I whispered to him as I continued to keep up with his pace, " I said, wait up."He faced me with irritation evidently seen in his eyes."It's not my fault you are a slowpoke," he added while clenching his jaw."Doom, you were the one who dragged me here suddenly," I whispered, "And tone down your voice, we are in the public for pete's sake."I immediately left him there and walked fast in the opposite direction.I did not even look back if he followed.

DOOM The Answers
“My lady, you look really tired. Would you like to have a tea?” Butler Wong showed up in my room. “Yes, please.” I rested my head on the couch and listened to my favorite song through my headphones. This day is tiring yet confusing at the same time. I don’t understand how fast everything happened. “Crack.” I immediately stood up and my face turned into a poker one as I saw his face. “What are you doing here? I thought you have a work to do?” I asked. He sat beside me. “Don’t you want me here?” I face palmed and he grinned. This guy, really. We both felt each other’s breathing against the heavy silence between us. This feels familiar, ain’t it? “Is school fun?” He asked. I just answered him the usual. “No, as usual. How do you expect me to have fun in a school that is full of rumors circulating and annoying students around?” I don’t know but it feels like we do have this awkward presence for each other and we both don’t know how to make it not an awkward one. “Why did you a

“Can I ask one more thing, Lily?” he asked.I nodded my head in response. My eyes drew in confusion when he offered his hand. I wonder why is he doing this?Primo gave me his sincere smile and said, “Can we be friends? Not in a businesslike manner but personally?”I raised my brow and looked at him with suspicion. He raised his two hands as I scanned him from head to toe.“Don’t worry. I don’t have any ill intentions,” He assured.I don’t know if I can fully trust him since he’s just a guy I met due to our deal between the two companies.I scoffed. “Why did you offer me a friendship?” I was really suspicious of his acts and I can’t help but to doubt.He looked straight into my eyes. I blinked twice and he smiled. “You’re nice and I like you.”My heart pounded harder and faster than it usual. But my mind tells me the otherwise about what he said.“I am not nice as you think,” I bitterly replied as I walked away from him.He followed me and I can feel him smiling behind my back.He chuc
