It was a relief on my part as I saw who entered the mansion.

Phew! That feeling when you know your world is going to end? Yeah, that's what I felt before Ian entered the mansion.

"What the hell, Ian?" Hunter said.

Ian was on his phone. He lifted his head to him. "What? The door is closed so, I knocked."

Hunter sighed in annoyance. "I thought you were someone that I expected to meet tonight!"

Ian's forehead creased. "Who? Oh. Your batch mates?"

"Well, yeah. Wait. How did you know?"

"I was hanging with the security guard a while ago, then a car stopped by and informed me that it was cancelled."

Hunter scoffed. "Without informing me?!"

Ian bobbed his head. "Obviously."

    [katalina]The three of us ate dinner. Hunter, me, and Ian. Unlike Ian who was bobbing his head up and down, enjoying the music of his earphones, Hunter was sort of disappointed. And I couldn't eat properly. Much as my stomach wanted to devour food, my mind could only think of Hunter. It makes me feel guilty and sad at the same time. Usually, he enjoys my dishes. But now, it is different. I'm certain it tastes good. I mean, Ian won't eat non-stop if it wasn't appetizing enough. Although, Hunter was eating. Finely. As if someone was criticizing his food etiquette. So, I cleared my throat. He forced a smile as he looked at me. "Are you alright?" Hunter couldn't seem to find the words. But he managed to nod his head. He focused on eating his food.

    [katalina]Night came. Hunter was on the bed already. While I chose not to go home. And spend the night with him. The TV was turned on. Hunter was watching a documentary film about the wilderness and the animals in it. I slowly climbed on the bed and lay next to him. He looked at me when I used his arm as my pillow. Hunter kissed my forehead. "How are you?" he asked out of the blue. I smiled. "Doing well. And you?" "I'm fine—""You're not," I cut him off. Hunter sighed. "Why would they cancel without letting me know? They had my hopes up," Hunter pouted. I kissed his cheeks. "Like you, they also have a life. Perhaps they are busy." "I hate them already." Hunter sounded like a child. I cackled which made him laugh too.

    [katalina]Hunter's snores resonated in the bedroom. It caused the corners of my lips to curve into a smile. How long has he been asleep? One? Two? Three? Wait. Four hours. In that period of time, I couldn't grasp the courage to sleep. As if I drank three cups of coffee before bed. Which I didn't do by the way. The bedroom was in dim light. Color blue. Hunter said that the lighting of the bed helps our body's temperature. Blue means getting ready to sleep or rest. While red signifies fulfilling the carnal desires. It's kind of weird at some point because I'm new to such things like this. But with Hunter, I felt like I could just trust him.

    [katalina]I didn't notice the passage of time. The last thing I remembered was that my eyelids felt heavy."Ngah!" With a pounding heart, I opened my eyes in fright. I couldn't explain. But I instantly felt a ginormous feeling of tension and fear. I sat in bed. And used the back of my palm to wipe the beads of sweat in my forehead. Tilting my head to Hunter's direction, he was sleeping like a baby. I dreamt of it again. That night where I heard him. Hunter was secretly cheating on me. And little did he know that I know his secret already.

    [katalina]The bed creaked as I moved. Taking baby steps, I managed to descend from the bed without waking him up. I dragged my feet downstairs and found my way to the kitchen. There, I poured a glass of water and drank directly. It's been weeks since that incident happened. But I couldn't forget. I won't forget. The despised feeling I felt is the same as how I was in that situation. No matter how many times I overcame the situation, the sensation is still the same. I couldn't fathom the thlught of him saying I love you to my face then I heard him over the phone calling someone by the name "baby"

    [katalina]Since the nightmare occurred, I lost the ability to sleep back again. Perhaps a glass of milk would suffice right? Because I badly need to go back to bed. Apart from the fact that I have work for tomorrow, I don't also want Hunter to notice my sudden disappearance. Heck, out of nowhere, I found myself having the feeling of assessing my situation as a silver lining. I knew from the very beginning that my heart is at risk from being broken hearted. But it could also be a chance for me to gather more evidences to create the perfect exposé that I've been looking.Wait... what exactly happened?

    [katalina]flashbackI love the sound of the sea clasping on the sand. It calms my senses. And the summer breeze of the air whenever I smell near the sea... ahh... heaven! It's five o'clock in the morning. And I'm sitting on the sand, facing the sea as I embrace myself to see the sunrise. Nothing can compare to the morning horizon during sunrise. The clouds and the skies looked like they were a painting. Pulling my knees closer to my chest and hugging it, the corners of my lips curved into a smile as I watched the sun slowly rising from the sky.

And if only I knew it earlier than now, I would have turned my back to all of what I have accomplished and lived a simple life. The serenity of the atmosphere, the tranquility of the wind, and the fresh breeze of air as if it replenishes my lungs — I couldn't ask for more. It's a heaven on earth when you're at the beach. But all my happy thoughts vanishee away upon hearing his voice inside my head.

Okay, let’s say that you did a press conference. Okay. But what’s the essence? Your exposé came out first than your press con? And the people would not just hate you as well. But also, it will undermine all your credibility not just as a writer or a researcher. But as a human being,” he smiled sadly.Jerry shrugged his shoulders. “It’s too late, okay.
