-Flashback-
"Condolonces, Aurora."
Amara was only five years old when her father died. She barely understand the things that has been happening around her. All she knows is that her father is sleeping soundly in that silver coffin. She was not even crying because Amara hates her father. All he did to her was to abuse her. She never felt even the slightest love from him, even until he died.
"Amara, it's time. Come on."
After the viewing, her father was buried at the old cemetery. Her mother doesn't have enough money to even put him at the apartment on the new cemetery. The old cemetery is where poor people, and criminals are buried. The entire cemetery looks abandoned.
As a child who experienced abuse from her own father, Amara developed a fear of letting people in. She doesn't have friends, she's not even talk to anyone. Not even in her preparatory school. She feels like everyone will always hurt her. Amara tried to tell her mother, to ask her moth
-Flashback-Life as a street hooker is both good, and bad. Amara is tall for her age, which is makes her interesting to customers than the other girls. At the age of fourteen, she's already been with more men than she can count. Something that is not being experienced by other girls her age. But, everything she experienced made her stronger than she already is.If at first, she felt disgusted about herself, at this point, she no longer care. Maybe, she developed the stomach for it. Her friends, those girls she works with in the street, told her that in time, she'll get to use to the different smell of saliva that would cover her body. That all it takes is a simple bath, and a good scrub to clean it all away."Amara, how's your night?"It's already six in the morning when she returned home. One of her regulars, Hughes, picked her up the night before. He also gives the best tips, that's why Amara takes good care of him. Every time he comes to town, Amara wo
Amara's POVA flower in full bloom,A moon which is full,A life at its peak,In me, hides the lies I will never utter.There's darkness in me,It grows within me,And threatens to swallow me.The world is my heaven,The world is my hell.The world is my kingdom,The world is mine to bare.I've written that poem the day I killed Salazar Simmons. The day that I fulfilled my promise to my friend Mira. It took me four years to finally uncover his identity, and while investigating Mira's death, I decided to widened my search. After learning everything there is to know about programming and technology, I hacked into different systems.It true, what many successful people say. There is nothing impossible to someone with a strong, laser beam-like focus. As long as you set your mind to a certain goal, there's nothing a person couldn't do."What is that?" Arman's voice interrupted my thoughts. I didn't even not
-Flashback-For four years, Amara investigated her friend's death. She tracked down everything that could have pointed in the right direction. Finally, after years of searching, she found something that would finally tell her who was responsible for Mira's death.It was an art exhibit, and a client paid her service to accompany him. The paintings were made by a not so famous painter back then. All the subjects of the paintings were teenagers, both boys and girls. One of the paintings caught her attention."Mira..."Her friend was so beautiful in her red dress, while sitting at swing, looking at the sky. The color used for the flowers brought out the beauty of her complexion, as well as her eyes. She looks so alive in that painting. Amara's heart breaks just by looking at it."Why are you crying?" Her current client asked. She didn't even noticed that she was crying."This was my friend. I know this is her. I would recognize those eyes anywhe
The world is full of monsters disguised as decent people. For Amara, if the law won't do anything about those monsters, she will. It's what she trained herself to do. For years, she dedicated herself into investigating men in Haverville. She knew that she can't do it for the whole world, but she can clean Haverville.After successfully investigating Salazar Simmons, Amara spent years investigating every man in Haverville who was suspected of being a sex offender. She created a list of all the men she verified to be guilty of the crimes she despised. She devoted herself into hunting down every men in Haverville that is guilty of such crimes."I've got the others, there's still so much to do." Amara said to herself.She was staring at the files that she acquired over the years. Amara made sure that everyone in his list are absolutely guilty, and that deserve to die. Even though she is willing to kill, there are certain lines that she wouldn't cross. Amara made a p
Arman's POVSince Amara took me into her home, I started having good dreams again. Before, when I was still at the compound, all I had were bad dreams. Sometimes, it's about my mom selling me to Darwin, or my father dying over and over again. Last night was different. I dreamed about being in the beach, and running through the shore. There are times that I would stop to pick up shells and put them in my pocket. That was the most beautiful dream I ever had.I know that Amara cares for me, and I care for her too. She loves me more than my own mom ever did. I promise I will protect her no matter what happens. That is why everytime Darson visits me and Amara is not at home, I do everything I can to avoid him entering Amara's room. From the moment I learned about her secret, I decided to protect it too. I don't want anyone to know what she's doing, because I don't want them to take her away."Amara, can I play outside?" I'd like to try making friends just like they s

Her beauty quickly caught the attention of the handsome senator. Cassandra is a simple woman who was discovered at a modeling agency. All she wanted to do was to be a model. But when a talent manager saw her, he immediately offered to make a star. The promise of success, and the ability to support her family better made her dream bigger."What do you think you're doing?" Andrew asked Cassandra angrily when he found her dancing with a guy all sweaty, and drunk."Andrew! Hi!" Cassandra was really drunk, and her inhibitions are already low. She even forgot about her fear of A
Ever since Arman met Brix, he found his best friend. Despite the fact that Brix is the son of a rich couple, he still chose to be his friend. Everyday, he would visit Amara's house to ask Arman to play with him. Even though Arman doesn't really play, he would still come with Brix. They'd stay at the park, or go to the woods to. "Arman, come on! Up here!" This time, Brix brought him to the hills. He was so excited about it that he even had to run, and leave Arman, who preferred walking. As soon as Arman reached the top of the hill, he couldn't help but smile. It was indeed a wonderful view at the top of the hill. The feeling that he could touch the sky makes him feel lik his on top of the world. "Wow!" "Told yah!" "This is amazing. How did you find this place?" "I found this place when I ran away from home. My mom left us for her boyfriend." "Aw, that is so sad. Sorry." "That is okay. Don't worry." Brix smiled at him lik
Seeking justice for those who can't get justice for themselves has been Amara's devotion ever since her friend, Mira died. She doesn't have any plans on stopping. That is the reason why she can't let herself fall in love with Darson. The problem is that she already fell for him.Every time Darson is with them, Amara sees the good in him. She tries so hard to avoid feeling anything whenever he shows how nice he is to Arman or her. More so, when Darson gave Arman the chance to a better life. She can feel his love for her adopted son. How can she ignore her feelings for the first man who ever treated her like a woman?"Amara! Darson is here,, and he brought ice cream!" Arman called from down the stairs."I'll be there in a minute!"She quickly closed the door to her hidden room. Darson haven't been at the second floor of hr house, but she doesn't want to take any chances. He might take her secret work positively, and that's something that she can't risk. Esp
Arman and Kyle went to the park to play. It's Sunday, and they both agreed to spend every weekends outdoors. This is Arman's way of helping his best friend to forget all the bad things that happened to him. He wants Kyle to be happy, so he will choose to stay with them.It is a sunny day–perfect to outdoors, but because Arman is too matured to play kid's game, he would just sit on the grass and watch Kyle. Sometimes, he would ask himself why he chose to be friends with a childish kid like him. But, every time he looks at Kyle, he would just smile and realize that there's no one he would rather be friends with."Kyle..." Arman's watching his best friend play at the monkey bar when they heard a familiar voice."What are you doing here?" The young boy couldn't help himself from feeling angry towards the man standing near the monkey bar."I just–I just want to talk to my son." Mr. Monroe said in a sad tone. There are dark circles around his eyes, and he alrea
A few days after Darson left, his family is still uncomfortable with the knowledge that his obsession with Amara Keener hasn't stop. Yes, they adore the fact that she saved a little boy from being abused by his stepmother, but it won't change the fact that she's an escort girl. They see her as the kind of woman who will kiss any man's feet in exchange for money. Something that they despised so much.But just like before, they can't do anything about it because Darson always had his own mind. None of them can convince him, especially when it comes to Amara. They also can't change the fact he already love Amara's adopted child like his own."I don't know how long I could let this go on. Our son is a single, responsible man who can make any woman fall for him. Why is he wasting his time with Amara Keener." Mr. Humphrey said."You know your son. He will never change his mind. He's been in love with Amara Keener since he was in high school. Years has passed, and his
Leaving is something that Darson doesn't want to do ever again, but even him knows that he needs to work. If he wants to help Amara provide a good future for Arman, he needs to be hardworking. Especially now that Kyle is also with them.He felt happy that Arama, Kyle, and Arman accompanied him to the port. Even though his family is obviously not happy about it, they agreed not to say anything. Darson knows that it will not be easy for his family to accept Amara again, but he knows that in time they will see how great of a person she is."You take care of yourself, son. Alright?" His father remained him."We will miss you." Said his mother."Be good, okay?" His sisters added."Thank you, guys. I'll see you soon." Darson said to his family. "Hey, kids. Be good to Amara, alright?""We will miss you." Arman and Kyle replied."Just come back safe, okay?" Amara said with a smile."Of course. I made a promise, remember? Take car
"Kyle! Wake up! Come on, it's breakfast time!""Go away! I'm still sleepy!""Get out of bed or I will drag your ass down the stairs?""Fine! I'll just brush my teeth. You can get out now.""Not happening. Go to your bathroom and brush your teeth, I'll wait for you here."I smiled as I listened to those two boys. They really are like brothers, and my heart breaks for Kyle. He's a nice kid, and he doesn't deserve to be mistreated. Now that his dad and stepmother are both facing possible jail time, he's got nowhere to go. Both his parents are only child, and his grandparents are all dead. We are the only ones who can take care of him.I woke up early to prepare our breakfast, and as expected, Darson arrived a few minutes after I'm done. He brought fruits, a gallon of ice cream, and new toys for Kyle. He even brought a new computer for him. I can already see that he will be a great father when the time comes. It's just sad to think that I might
The very next day, Amara called Kyle's father to let him know that his son ran away and called them for help. He demanded for Amara to bring his son back immediately, and even threatened to sue her for kidnapping. But, Amara, being the brave woman she is who never blinks in the face of threats, refused.She told Mr. Monroe to come to their town, and meet her at the sheriff's station. She already called the child protection office, and their representative is already on his way. When Mr. Monroe sensed that Amara will not budge, he agreed to travel back to town. She also demanded for him to bring his new wife."What's your plan?" Darson asked her. They are already at the sheriff's station with Kyle, and one of the female officers is already getting his statement."I'll make sure that Kyle's b*tch stepmother will rot n jail for what she did to him." She responded. Amara can feel her body trembling in so much anger."I can't imagine how a woman would do somet
Earlier this morning, the news said 'Matriarch Of A Crime Family Died Of Heart Failure'. Amara woke up to that news, and the first thing that came to her mind was that she escaped justice. She wanted Mrs. Higgins to suffer in jail. That's what she deserves after everything she done, just like the rest of her family.The only comfort that she has is the knowledge that the rest of her family is rotting in prison. Now that the issue with the Higgins has finally reached its conclusion, Amara can focus of what lies ahead. More specifically about what she has to do with Henry Cambert."Amara, that reporter is outside." Arman announced. She's at her room planning on what to wear for tonight.Henry Cambert invited her on a date tonight, and she's planning on making everything work on her favor. Bartholomew Carter is becoming of a nuisance than help. He's chasing the fame that came with the intense reports he did because of her. Now that she's no longer giving him any in
