Psyche was relieved when the sequence of events reverted, despite the switching of luggage incident. As of the moment, she is enjoying the sight of a pale foamy orange sky that sets the horizon boundary on the ocean. She was watching the youthful smile of students who were enjoying the last day at the resort/campsite.

Psyche seated beside her while on a video call with Daniel. Serina simply peeked at the screen and smiled. Later on, Gregory approached them with a fresh buko juice. 

"Move a little," says Psyche, preventing Gregory from occupying the spare space beside Serina. 

"What are you guys doing during October break?"

Serina suddenly remembered that she had to appear with her husband for Aunt. Lucilla. It was at that time she accidentally tipped her feet and ended up kissing one of the strangers. She sighed upon remembering such an embarrassing moment.

"Probably enjoying quality time with my Daniel," Psyche replied.

Serina was about to speak when her phone notified her about its running out of battery. She stood up and said, "Guys, I'm going back to the cottage. I need to charge my phone and prepare my belongings as well since we are heading home later. How about you, aren't you going to prepare?"

"Nah. I'm done."

She went to the restroom first when all of a sudden, a cat walked on the edge of the window. She paid no attention until it talked to her...

"It's been a while, my child."

"Wait!" She yelled and went outside to chase the cat, not knowing where her feet would lead her.

On the other hand, Vincanster did not announce his return to surprise Serina. However, when he asked Psyche and Daniel, they answered in chorus... "She vanished."

He was touching his nose bridge while trying to contact Serina only to receive a voice saying the number you dialed is out of the coverage area, please try your call later.

"I'll find her. I need three people at least to be dispatched in the area," says Vincaster, then he heads straight to the forest.

He was already in the heart of the forest yet Serina is nowhere to be found. Suddenly a cat appeared and it stared at him. He doesn't know what got into him, but he followed the cat as if he was being controlled.

Then it ran away as soon as his eyes caught sight of a woman crouching on the grass.

"Seriously, what is she doing in here?" he said while walking slowly and silently as much as possible.

He tapped Serina's shoulder only to receive a slap that is similar to the hotness of lava. Then, her yell disturbed the birds in their nest. "AHHHHH, Damn, I thought it was a monster or so. You freaking scared me."

"Do I look like a beast to you?" he asked while making a duck face.

Serina gasped in surprise. She stood up and her hands moved on their accord, caressing her husband's cheeks and she said, "Are you okay? Does it hurt?"

Vincaster's ears felt hot and he could not help but blush. At the back of his mind, he was screaming like a guy fangirling his crush.

"OMG, look at your cheek. It's freaking red," says Serina.

Vincaster was enjoying the sight of seeing his wife's concerned look, but all of a sudden, the lady stood up and distanced herself.

"Anyway, why are you here?" she said while raising her eyebrow.

"I think my feet lead me here because my heart told me so. Do you believe in soulmate and destiny?"

Serina frowned and gritted her teeth while glaring at her husband. 

"It's fine if you don't believe in it, so you don't have to put up a face that looks like it's about to bite. Honestly speaking, I just follow a cat"

"Let's head out now. You have your phone with you, right?"

Vincaster took his phone from his suit and pressed Daniel's number, however, a king cobra appeared in front of them. They were too startled. Hence Serina ran and grabbed her husband's wrist, consequently, his phone dropped on the rock.

"Looks like we're going to be stuck here. Anyway, let's stay here for a while and wait for the men I dispatched to come and find us," says Vincaster while flicking the broken screen of his phone.

Serina nodded her head and watched the flowing water from the falls next to them. 

"I'm thinking of bringing you and my in-laws to El Nido for leisure, what do you think? or do you have another place to visit?" 

"I was desperate when I agreed on this marriage, but as much as possible I want to live well on my own. Stop giving us things we did not ask to have. We don't want to be dependent on you. Don't try to set a high standard of man for my family because it would be troublesome once we walk in separate paths."

"I'm trying to give you and your family vacation, so why do you have to say it like that? Do you hate me?"

"I'm thankful for saving us from the financial crisis and staying true to your promise of keeping this marriage as private. Stop giving us things we can't afford, and we didn't ask."

"You didn't answer my question. Do you hate me?"

"Let's find a way instead of staying here," says Serina. 

Vibcaster was jealous so he confronted her, but it only exasperated their argument.

“Do you like that cockroach Gregory?” he said as he clasped his wife's hand. 

“If I have romantic feelings for him, it’s none of your business," she replied.

“Just answer me… what if he likes you, will you be his girl?”

“I might consider it after divorcing you,” she did not mean but it was necessary to remind him and herself that none of their romance was true, thus her intention to drive him away is clear.

He gritted his teeth and before he knew it, his hand had pulled Seri close to him. Vincaster embraced Serina as he threw himself in the water. Then a splash of water as their body meets the cold running water.

“Uah-!” She exclaimed as soon as she recovered from almost drinking the pool’s water.”

“If you want to die, do it alone! I don’t want to die again, you mogul!” she yelled while withdrawing from the water.

The water is dripping from Vincaster’s body “I thought your mind would think straight if I were to pour water on you.”

His eyes suddenly landed on Serina's wet clothes. He removed his suit and covered Serina, and he said, "I'm sorry."

Serina wanted to yell, but why does her heart melt by seeing Vincaster's puppy-like visual?

She knew such feelings should not grow inside her because divorcing should be her priority.

Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert."Then, a sudden outburst of light blinded her, and she was awoken by the excruciating pain shed on her lining.

They are now celebrating their achievement on the lawn and garden of Liverteo's manor. Serina and Vincaster buy a bigger house with a wide lawn and garden because they want to build a playground and tree house for Vera, and hopefully, if there's another blessing to add to their family tree.

    Serina woke up feeling annoyed with her husband. She even hated the smell of the food he had cooked for her. “What’s the occasion? Why are there so many disgusting foods?” she asked. “You look thin, so I wanted to feed you,” he replied as he pulled a chair and helped his wife to occupy the seat. Well, it was true, she did not gain much weight compared to some pregnant women who usually gain a lot during their pregnancy. Maybe because she became a picky eater, which she had never done before. And, she suspected that the baby is likely to have inherited such a trait from his fussy dad. “It’s because I’m so stressed seeing you every day. Anyway, what’s the point of gaining weight?” she replied while scrutinizin

"You're too young to get married! Mom, watch over this kid, she's blabbering about marriage," she scolded her younger sister but the latter only rolled her eyes. Then, Samira and Saniah only laughed. "Duh, I didn't say I am going to marry at this age," Savinah retracted. Serina was about to respond, but the bridal car had arrived already.

    Serina was decluttering things along with Vincaster's wheelchair because he no longer needed it. Those things that they no longer used were stored in Serina's room. After all, it was unoccupied since she agreed to share a room with her husband two months ago because it is easier to tend to his needs if she's near him. Moreover, she had confessed her feelings to him, and there was no need to disclose what had happened after the confession; even a man with a cast on his right leg can still warm a bed. Vincaster was in the office, and Serina has no classes today because the school calendar is yet to start. She was kind of nervous about the school opening this August. Her husband told her that they should make a public appearance as a couple to clear the rumor of her being a mistress. Although such a topic had died eventually, still, they need to make it clear.

    The sun cast shadows on worn gray stones, filtering through green tree leaves, bright yellow flowers pushing up through thick grass. One can hear the wind rustling leaves of nearby trees that defy the silent atmosphere, as there are no other people around the vast grassy area of Royale Y cemetery, aside from Serina and her company. Serina wore a white above-the-knee dress and paired it with white heels. She brought a bouquet with her, which she placed on the ground. Then, she scented a candle and prayed for the person lying six feet below the ground. She stared at the sky and watched the clouds move in a clear blue sky. "I hope you are at peace wherever you are," says Serina as she caresses the tomb with the words 'Rest in peace' engraved on it. Daniel patted her

    Serina didn't know why she was standing in front of the door, holding her phone. She was back from the seminar only to realize that her feet brought her in front of the hotel room where she saw Vincaster with Hillary."What the hell am I doing here?" she asked while holding the doorknob of the hotel. Suddenly, a cold wind blew hard, along with a voice that said, 'it's about time'.Then, the next thing she knew was, her hand had opened the room. She witnessed the same picture from the past, whereas Vincaster was with Hillary, covered with a blanket from neck to toe.In the back of Serina's mind was cursing whatever force that brought to go to this place. It might sound insane, but she momentarily lost control of herself. Indeed there are truly unexplainable things that

I can't perish at this point, everything was fine in myfamily. I have a loving family who will grieve for my death, so stay focused on my goal," she said while walking back and forth.She kept walking back and forth while keeping the time in check. She was waiting for the hands of the clock to point to 23:00. Then, the moment she had been waiting has now come to the floor."Why are you still awake?"She didn't reply with words, instead, a paper did its part to tell what she wanted to say.
