Based on the appearance of the long hair rolling on her back—shining black and is layer cut—and her amber eyes that glinted a tinge of gold when it shines, an image of the madam whom she saw last night entered her mind. Elaine’s mouth gaped for a bit in quick realization.
The woman—who’s sitting on the chair adjacent to her—grinned.
“Greetings Elaine. I’m sorry for not introducing myself last night.” She shifted her seat a bit and pt her hand on her chest. “My name is Rhea Ildian, Asher’s mother.”
Elaine slowly nodded her head, still astounded. In her view, Madam Rhea looked almost androgynous. Although her hair is long and her face amazingly beatiful, the woman in front of her emits an aura of both a mother and a father, somehow, that Elaine couldn’t help but to be in awe.
“Alright, Elaine.” Madam Rhea shifted her seat before she suddenly paused halfway. “I can call you Elaine, right?”
Elaine nodded, even though she couldn’t ev

(Asher’s POV) By the time I finished my jog and also took a shower, Elaine and my mother were still conversing about something. I don’t want to interrupt them because it sounded serious, so I put on my sleeveless brown top paired with black denim pants to go have breakfast outside. While it’s true they’re conversing in the dining hall, I can’t just cross the dining hall to the kitchen to take my breakfast and walk past them like “Howdy y’all?” And pulled a straight face after expecting their disturbed and worried faces. I was now on my way to the entrance of the mansion. To be honest, I don’t have fond memories of this mansion. No, it’s not about my dead father or my trauma, it’s simply because this mansion stood covering about 4 hectares of land. It’s that big that I have made up my mind to scram from this house. Because imagine this. You want to go too school. Let’s say on a particular day, you’re getting late, so you really have to hurry to school

(Asher’s POV) Although the weather is so peaceful, the still air surrounding the three of us felt strangely suffocating. I couldn’t help noticing Ezra stealing glances at the dazed Mister Nathan—who’s lifelessly eating his already cold grilled cheese—as one of his eyes occasionally shone the color of gold. What is wrong with these people? If Ezra can just say he’s interested in Mister Nathan, he can just say it. But I too should tell him that Mister Nathan can as well be your godfather, Ezra. I coughed loudly, causing both Ezra and Mister Nathan to flinch and moused awkwardly on their seat. Then I paced myself. I guess it’s better to tell Mister Nathan after all, he’s looking too miserable I couldn’t help but pity him. “Mister Nathan, do you know what happened to Elaine?” Mister Nathan shot his gaze to me, dumbfounded, before he slowly shook his head. Somehow I can see the corner of his eyes scrunched slightly, as if holding his tears. I

(Asher’s POV) I was sitting in Chips n Charm, waiting for the person who sent me the text message I’ve read back when I have my breakfast. As I sipped the last bit of coffee I brought with me and scooped the remaining cream from inside the cup, a familiar sleazy voice greeted me from behind. “Heyyyy broooo.” The corner of one of my eyebrows twitched. “…Rufus?” Was what I uttered after I turned my head like in the horror movies—slowly and frightful. I do said that I would be meeting someone but trust me, it’s not Rufus this time. But the person beside him. “Yah.” The guy beside Rufus—half of his tanned face covered with his blue hoodie—broke a grin at me. One of his hand was holding a parcel as he scooted on a seat right across me. Rufus sheepishly tagged along and sat beside him. I rubbed my face in frustration. Rufus is lucky that he’s a football maniac. If he’s not a quarterback, I would’ve done my karate move on him and knock him un

(Asher’s POV) Kaiser broke into a smile before bringing the nail and himself closer. “Alright. The feature is nothing much, actually. Apart from the head, the carving , the weight and the sharp end.” I creased my brows. “The head?” Kaiser nodded. “Yep. If you can see here-” “Bro!” Rufus butt in again. I heaved a sharp sight as he babbled, “This nail is amazing! I mean look at this length, it’s super LONG! Where did you get this-” “Shush.” I squeezed his not so squishy cheeks by accident. Immediately pulling away, my hands transitioned to my pocket and took out some cash before sliding it on the table towards him. “Rufus. If you don’t disturb us, I will treat you to any menu you wanted to eat.” I pointed to the menu board above the reception counter where various selection of menus; ala carte, combo, and even family combo are displayed. Rufus’s dirty blue eyes sparkled. “Are you for real?” His tone sounded like he’s in a d

(Elaine’s POV) I was enjoying my breakfast when a butler—black shiny hair with ear length bangs covering half of his forehead and one of his eyes—His dark brown eyes shot me a glance as he stepped near Madam Rhea and whispered something to her. Madam Rhea replied back, before motioning her hands to another butler—one who was standing at the side of the dining hall as if preparing for any call. A few moments after that, the same butler returned to the dining hall with a black purse on the tray in his hands. Madam Rhea picked up the purse and unzipped it. Then, talking something again with the black haired butler, she handed him an object that looked like a piece of card. After that, the butler politely excused himself. I trailed off the butler’s slender figure and accidentally muttere, “Beautiful…” “What is it, Elaine?” I flinched, turning my head to Madam Rhea’s direction. She threw me a questioning look as she blinked her eyes. “N-Nothing…” I

(Elaine’s POV) Mister Michaelis?! I stood up from my seat in surprise. “W-Why is he here?” The butler then bent his upper body slightly. “Young Master Asher asked me to bring him here. Master Michaelis said he wants to see you.” I pursed my lips. Earlier when I was discussing with Madam Rhea, she told me that rescuing me wasn’t informed to everyone in my surrounding. “It’s not a secret actually, but we’re short on time to let our allies know.” Madam Rhea’s heart giggled resounded in my ears. Honestly, I too am surprised by this unprecedented event, one where I am brought the Ildian family instead to Mister Ruperts house. Because of that, everyone, my aunt and her family, the secretaries, all of them didn’t know about it. I was really worried that the impatient guest might be my aunt, but I guess she never cared of me in the first place. I wasted my time to seek love of someone who didn’t even love me back. And n

Rhea Madam Rhea gazed silently at the screen of her phone. On it, was a text message sent by an unknown messenger wishing for them to meet. Albeit curious as to how this person was able to have her private number, she was more curious when the content of the message stated that the mysterious messenger is able to provide evidence to Elaine’s domestic abuse case. She ought to let it be, to let the case disappear just like that, but as someone who has experience in handling insatiable person like that Rose, she knows this case won’t simply stop with just that when Rose spotted Elaine in public. When that time comes, it was her duty to protect as the young girl’s new guardian. A knock on the glass window of the car shook her from her daze. Through the tinted glass, she saw a figure leaning in closer, it’s face was in full display in front of her. “Aren’t you…” Her brows creased in surprise. The person outside the window mouthed a HELLO before for

Asher “Elaine.” Asher called. The two of them were having lunch together in the dining room after playing two more round of Jenga, Elaine beating Asher in each game. “What is it?” Elaine mused, having a good mood when she managed to defeat Asher. She knew how skillful a person called Asher E. Ildian is, paticularly his achievements in school. Yet she had never imagined to be able to talk to him. Perhaps it’s luck, or it’s just simply conicidence. “I heard you were talking with my mother this morning. What were you talking about?” He inquired. The young girl pondered whether to tell him or not. However, by no means Asher is Madam Rhea’s son, and it wasn’t that much of a secret anyway so he has the right to know. “It’s nothing much, we just talked about the documents inside the brown file.” Asher’s eyebrows rose. “The brown file?” He paused when an image of Elaine clenching a brown file last night appeared in his mind. “Ah, that…”

(Asher’s POV) “This place is…” Elaine gaped for a bit as she looked at the night sky in awe, the two of us were standing on the apartment building that acted as the witness to my first encounter with her that changed our entire life. “You remember this place, right?” I stepped beside her and glanced at every corner of the roof of the old apartment building. Now that I have seen my surroundings with clear eyes, the apartment block really looks brittle like it’s going to fall off anytime. Meanwhile, at the corner of my eyes, I saw Elaine nodded slowly, though her eyes still looking at the sky. It’s probably because of the clear sky that I am seeing Elaine’s eyes sparkled more than usual, but I couldn’t help myself from staring at her. Unwittingly, I let out a scoff. “If I didn’t jump to save you I don’t think the two of us wil be where we are right now.” Elaine turned to look at me and chuckled. “I know. I still wondered how we survived

(A few hour after Asher woke up)“Uncle Gary called me yesterday.”Elaine began, trying to break the awkward silence between her and Asher that came out of nowhere. Asher who was still in a daze flinched when she suddenly spoke, his eyes rolled to the exit door for a few minutes to register the fact that his mother just left to finish work and took the next few minutes to muster his courage to reply her.“…What?”Elaine heaved a sharp sigh. Given how he delayed his response, Elaine knew something was wrong with him, yet she refrained from asking. Despite Asher’s vital and his response is normal and all, he must have still be in shock after waking up from the coma.“My uncle called me yesterday. He asked to meet me for dinner.” Elaine stated while adjusting her knee length pleated grey skirt to cover a margin of her shin. Plus the air conditioning of this VIP ward room, the chilly weather outside didn

(Asher’s POV)It was the day after I woke up from coma. The chill from the fall season is really been getting into me lately. In spite of me telling myself I’m cold, nature’s weather is better than the coldness coming from the air conditioner of my ward. Because of that, I have been wasting the hospital’s electric bills by opening the windows and basking my face in the evening air and sunlight.“It’s so cold…” I mumbled to myself.“Of course it would.” A voice appeared from behind me, followed by the sound of a door sliding.I turned around to see Ryan and Rufus entering the ward, each of them was was holding a bag of their own.“Whoa…” I snorted, trying to not cry because honestly, I missed them two even though it’s only about a week.Ryan sighed. “I might as well apply for membership in this hospital because of how frequent I’ve been visiting

(Asher’s POV)The first emotion after I regained my consciousness and stayed dormant for a few seconds was shame. The clips of scenes when Elaine was saying the words I have said to her inside The Flesh previously haunted my mind in a repetitive cycle that I slowly mustered the strength to one of my arms just so I could cover my face in embarrassment.I was definitely shocked to hear those words. “We’re in this together.” Was the last words I said to her when we’re inside the poison region of The Flesh. If she remembers my words, doesn’t that mean she heard my confession?“No way…” I croaked, ignoring my scratchy voice from just waking up.Apparently my voice is loud enough for this deadly silent room, that Elaine was awoken even by the subtelity of my voice.She blinked her eyes as her head tilted up. Seeing as I was lying down with my eyes open, she immediately shot up and exclaimed my name.

(Elaine's POV)The two of us stopped at the side of the lake and he sat down. He waited for me to sit, before finally uttered a word in a form of random conversation.“This place looks beautiful, isn’t it?”I was absentminded for a few moments, before I agreed.“Indeed. Do you know where this place is?” I asked the oddest thing I have ever asked. It’s obvious that this is just a dream, a realistic dream at that, but most dreams felt like this one.Asher shot me an undecipherable look, his eyes looked quite empty even though the orange hue from setting sun glinted on the glassy surface. Then he stated, “This is my inner consciousness.”I thought he was talking gibberish for a second, yet the look on his face speaks the truth. He wasn’t lying.“What…” I breathed. “What are you talking about?”His facts were too hard for me to process, yet I have

I blame my gut feeling for coaxing me to follow it’s orders, as right now I am walking through a long way of inside some woods, of somewhere I didn’t know. I just suddenly got transferred here like magic.I gave up on wondering where I am the moment these ivies and vines began moving on it’s own and attacked me. It might be just the trick of my mind, originally, but that doesn’t matter anymore if the plant literally tried to pull you back into the bushes. Only God knows how terrified I am at that time, which actually happened just a few minutes ago.Right now I am trascending through the path of the woods. With the entrance of the woods already closing behind me, there was only one way and that was to go forward. I really wondered why am I sent here when I was visiting Asher.Suddenly memories of him flashed through my mind as I trudged the gloomy path. That&r

ElaineAfter school, Elaine decided to visit Asher at the hospital. She was informed by Madam Rhea that Asher just escaped a life threatening condition—by dodging the bullet from getting straight through the heart. That being said, Asher still won’t wake up despite his condition, as if something is holding him down from coming back to life.The young girl avoided going to the hospital at first because of the fear and trauma of seeing Asher being shot like that. Even though Rose Chadwick is already as good as inside a grave, that wretched woman still managed to inflict trauma even at the end of her life. What a cunning woman.Falling in a daze, Elaine didn’t realize that she had already reached the hospital. She went out from the car and thanked the driver before telling him that she will call when she wanted to get back. After that, she entered the building with a heavy heart.‘It would be better if Ryan and Rufus is here.’ T

Unlike her surroundings which were pretty loud and chaotic; siren coming from the ambulance bellowing through the air from the distance and the paramedic doing their job, security and defense team securing the peremeter and the other spectators who were bustling into chattering among each other, Elaine felt her senses pretty numb for someone who just witnessed someone close to her being shot right in front of her eyes.Her daze lasted even until the ambulance went away. Only her guardian, Rhea Ildian’s voice managed to shook her out from daze.Elaine shot her gaze up to meet Madam Rhea’s.Despite adam Rhea asking her condition, the middle aged woman was trying haard to not show any sign’s of trauma or discomfort for this young girl who probably faced many more fears than her. Yet her feelings still spill out to reflect upon her eyes. Still, she picked

Did I call at a wrong time?”“What? No, not at all. It’s just…” I pursed my lips. “Anyway, what are you doing right now?”“I just took a bath and was on the bed.”“Oh.” I chuckled. “It’s still about 8 and a half in the evening, yet people are so tired.”Elaine replied my statement with a chuckle. “No doubt about it.”The silence between us ensues.
