KIA

Every morning, the same repetitive ritual unfolds without fail. It's so predictable, so routine, that I could probably perform it in my sleep due to its sheer monotony. It's a daily routine dreaded not just by me but by countless others in our society. At precisely 7:20 a.m., my alarm clock blares with a loud, grating beep, signaling the commencement of yet another day. As I reluctantly open my eyes, I embark on the familiar process of shedding the comforting cocoon of my warm blanket, savoring every last bit of its enveloping warmth. I rub away the remnants of sleep from my eyes, shuffle out of bed, feeling disoriented and ill-prepared for the outside world.

"Mhm… I've been feeling drained for quite some time now."

The moment I rouse from slumber, I make a direct beeline for the restroom to prepare for the day's upcoming events. When I glance into the mirror, I'm taken aback to discover my neck adorned with a series of hickeys. Oh, God! How am I supposed to interpret this situa

    Kia Our first class had concluded, and I stretched my body before rising from my seat and preparing to exit the room. As I was heading towards the cafeteria, my professor unexpectedly approached me. "Ms. Saavedra, I heard you don't have any classes in the afternoon. Could you assist me with something?" "Uh, yes, ma'am. How can I help you?" "Well, I have an urgent meeting with the dean, but unfortunately, I still have a class scheduled. So, I came up with an idea. I believe you could act as a substitute for me." "A substitute, ma'am? But I don't know anything about their major subjects..." "Don't worry. Your role will be to supervise them and ensure they remain quiet while I'm in my meeting. It's just a one-hour meeting, and I'll be there as soon as it concludes. They are expecting an exam from me, so you'll simply need to distribute the test papers and keep an eye on them. Remember, no cheating or talking during the exam, so you must vigilantly watch over them." It appeared that

    Kia Once more, rain was descending upon the city as I sat beside Miaree behind the wishing fountain. Our respite followed a wearisome stroll through the mall. "Miaree, do you have any plans after this? My husband agreed to entertain some guests at our place since we've finished decorating. You mentioned wanting to meet him, didn't you? Today would be the ideal opportunity!" I suggested, grinning. "Apologies, but something urgent has come up," she replied. "My uncle just messaged me, so I must go see him. Perhaps next time. Tell him he owes me a nice meal when we do meet, okay?" With that, she departed, leaving me to ponder her recent change in demeanor and perpetual busyness. Maybe her uncle genuinely needed her assistance; I'd heard he was a businessman. I stood, adjusted my pants, and gathered my modest haul of school supplies. As I approached the exit, the rain showed no sign of letting up. I must confess, I found solace in rainy weather. During a downpour, the city appeared sim

    KIA Once again, I find myself in this place, my gaze wandering aimlessly towards the ceiling. The words my father shared with me last night keep replaying incessantly in my mind. Who could possibly offer a solution to the dire situation our company is facing? My father mentioned it was a friend of mine, but I can't help but suspect it might be someone influential and affluent. I don't have any wealthy friends. Who could this mysterious savior be? As I pondered these thoughts, my phone suddenly sprang to life with a vibrating alert. It's a text message from Miaree. She wants to take me shopping today at her favorite store. She has an uncanny knack for timing her gestures perfectly. I need to inform her that our company crisis has been resolved. I promptly returned home and prepared myself with a refreshing bath. The SM Mall of Asia "You seem unusually cheerful today, Kia," Miaree innocently remarked, her eyes fixed on me. Even though I hadn't explicitly mentioned my elation, I cou

    KIA I took a deep breath before assembling my list of essentials: a vacuum cleaner, furniture polish, a dust cloth, window cleaner, paper towels, a laundry basket, and a bit of extra energy. Since my schedule today begins in the afternoon, there's no rush to leave for school early. Hence, I decided to tackle some general cleaning around the house. I meticulously sprayed each window pane one by one with the window cleaner, ensuring to reach every corner and eliminate any smudges present on the surface. "Hon, I'm heading to work now! See you later, hon. Love you!" Ares declared and planted a kiss on my forehead. As he was about to leave, I suddenly grabbed his hand. "Wait— I have something for you." I hurriedly went to the bedroom to retrieve the bracelet I bought yesterday. "Here! I forgot to give you this yesterday. I hope you like it," I murmured, handing him the pair of ruby bracelets. "You have one too! Are these matching bracelets, hon?" he inquired, and I responded with a smil

    As they stepped into the dean's office, they were met with a chilly atmosphere. The dean was conspicuously absent from her desk, leaving the room empty. The guards instructed them to take a seat and behave while awaiting the dean's return. One guard departed to resume his duties, while the other remained behind to watch over them. The two refrained from conversing or exchanging glances. They busied themselves with their phones, sitting in silence. It was an unavoidable void, a silence so profound it created its own distinctive sound. They panted for breath after their altercation, their labored breathing breaking the stillness. With no other competing sounds, the most audible noise was the resounding absence of noise itself. After what felt like an eternity, the door finally swung open, and the dean entered with a bento box that appeared freshly acquired. She made her way to her chair and settled in comfortably. Before she began speaking, she took a deep breath. "I received a report

    KIA As I glance at the gray, wall-mounted, round black clock, I realize there are only a few minutes left of class. Thoughts of the exhausting incident from this morning fill my mind as I begin to gather my belongings. Finally, it's time to head home. I collect my things and make my way to the classroom door. After descending a few stairs, I step outside through the main doors, greeted by the pleasant weather. A gentle breeze rustles through the air, and the sky boasts a serene shade of blue. Earlier, Ares had messaged me, informing me that he wouldn't be able to pick me up from school today. Therefore, I decided to take the bus home. I've been waiting for what feels like an eternity, watching the passing cars. Then, I glance up and spot the white and blue bus approaching my stop. I quickly grab my belongings and rush towards the bus, which comes to a slow halt in front of me, eager to head home. Upon arriving home, I promptly kick off my shoes and head to the bedroom for a much-nee

    They had been running for nearly ten minutes. Kianna's entire body was in motion; her leg muscles were warm from the exertion, fresh air filled her lungs, and her blood flowed swiftly through her limbs. Her heart pounded, and her gut churned as her legs started to tire. Gasping for breath, they ducked into a parking lot to catch their breath. "It should be safe now," Miaree panted, trying to regain her breath. "Kianna... What on earth just happened back there?" Marcy asked, her curiosity getting the best of her. "Why did he mislead those reporters and his fans?! He's going too far! Doesn't he realize how terrible his fake fans can be?" Miaree chimed in. Kianna was seething with anger at Nate and found it hard to control her emotions. "He did it on purpose. He thanked me earlier for something. Maybe that's why he helped me yesterday with my problem involving Asteria. He planned this in advance and waited for me to fall into the trap!" "What a cruel trick!" Miaree exclaimed. "Hey,

Ares left the house early, and he just left breakfast and money for lunch with a note. He really is a responsible husband. I would be thankful to God that I met him.“Marcy is always busy... I wish he wouldn’t be the next president in the next school year so that we could spend time together." Miaree mumbled while lying down. We are currently painting a portrait of a girl while we are on the floor. There are no other people here since her parents are busy with their business in Japan. I have known Miaree for the longest time of all of my friends. When Miaree joined our class as a new student in high school, it is when we first became friends. At first, neither of us wanted to talk to the other, but with time, we grew close.

He was measuring me for the wedding gown I would wear at our wedding. After the measurement, I went with Miaree and Marcy to shop for a dress that we could wear for the celebration after the wedding."Look, Kia! Green seems to suit you better. Something that suits your complexion." Marcy said, while holding a simple green dress."You know what, I agree with what you said. Actually, I would really choose green and pink to be the themes for all of us. What if we made all the dresses green? And let's make the wedding nature theme. A simple nature wedding?” I was just thinking about it as if my eyes were shining with the idea.* ringing * ringing * ringing *I immediately took my phone out of my pocket.

The CEO of our business partner has arrived and he was requesting for your presence, sir.” “Mr. Guevarra is here??” Ares asked.“Yes, sir….”“Tell him that my secretary will be the one who will meet him—”“But, sir… this is the fourth time that we are going to turn down his request. We might lose this partnership if you won’t be able to meet Mr. Guevarra…” Ares narrowed his eyes as he looked back in Kianna’s direction. She was walking away. He started to think about what he should do but in the end, he chose to go back to his company and meet Mr. Guevarra. While the meeting with Mr. Guevarra is ongoing, Ares couldn’t stop thinking about Kianna. “I have a vision that this partnership would be a success, Mr. Vueravista.” Mr. Guevarra said as he express his happiness for the upcoming partnership of their company. “Anyway, I heard that you were still not dating anyone.

    KIAThe chilly breeze was blowing across my skin, and I could feel it. I am currently standing in front of the enormous villa that I checked out the previous time I was here. In the event that I am unable to obtain a response from Ares, I will approach his parents in an effort to acquire the information that I require.After entering the grounds of the villa, I discovered that I had a significant distance to travel before I could really enter the structure. As I made my way toward the villa, a variety of conflicting feelings began to arise within me. It was difficult for me to determine whether my emotions were those of agitation, disappointment, or nervousness. As I arrived, I was all of a sudden overcome with uncertainty regarding whether or not I should forward with my plan. I couldn't see anyone at the front door, so I decided to walk in through the back entrance instead. However, when I got there, no one was present.Maybe I should go back the next time—"Kianna?"My attention wa

    KIA"Kianna, your spouse is the one who has been making you look foolish for the better part of a year now. It's not me." Nathan reached out and attempted to shake my hand, but I pushed him away. I went back and watched the portion of the video where the MC introduced Ares as the new CEO of the Vueravista corporation. It took me a few viewings, but in the end, I was convinced that what I was seeing was in fact happening. Throughout this entire period, he had been functioning in the capacity of an assistant. Even more amazingly, he permitted me to reside in his modest home. I knew him to be a straightforward individual who led a straightforward life, and as time went on, I learned to admire and even admire that quality in him. However, once it is discovered that everything was a fabrication, everything will come crashing down around them. Does this imply that the individuals who he claimed to be his parents when we first met are not, in fact, his biological parents but rather merely p

    KIA"Do you still remember who I am, Myst?" Nathan expressed his curiosity.I was taken aback, and I found that I was unable to think clearly as a consequence. Because so much time has passed since then, this is the first opportunity I've had to give careful consideration to the matter. He is absolutely correct. On that same evening, I was spending time with him before I ended u meeting with Ares."I—I really don't know what to say... But I do recall that we had a chance encounter that night. — But why didn't you inform me? Why did you keep it all these time and pretend like you didn't know who I was?" I inquired with a sense of curiosity.He let out a long sigh and then looked at me directly in the eyes. We saw another extended period of stillness between one another. I focused my eyes inward as I waited expectantly for him to provide me with some responses. I was unable to come up with any explanations for why he hid this information from me. Is it the reason why he assisted me the

    He purchased an additional bottle of Carlo Rossi California Red and gave some of it to me to drink. I was extremely drunk at that moment, but because he had already handed me a glass of wine, there was nothing I could do except accept it. I couldn't deny it because it was already in my hands. As he began to recount his narrative, I raised my glass to my mouth and took a sip."Have you ever questioned whether or not you are someone who is deserving of love?" He inquired.It appears like this guy is brokenhearted like me. I felt so awful for him. I was almost ready to respond to his question when all of a sudden, he began talking again."Because I did. It all started with my parents, and now it involves a girl whom I've put my faith in for many years... You're probably aware of this, but it's terrible.

    KIAAs he resumed his remarks while walking toward the bookcase, he added, "I was right all along..." He then finished his statement after reaching the bookcase. "Because I had just recently run into you at the Shangri-La hotel the same night, the news that you had unexpectedly gotten married put a wrench into things. I had no idea that you were already married when I ran into you there. Do you have any recollection of our previous encounter? I was the one who was there with you, Kianna, when you were sobbing uncontrollably and consuming a whole bottle of wine at the same time."I am only able to stand there and watch with my eyes wide open, unable to close them, as though the entire world were crumbling and falling apart around me...

The phrase that has been running through my head since after Vince said that to me; I just can't seem to get rid of it. It has been going over and over in my thoughts till this very moment. Even though I have a lot of other things to think about, I can't stop thinking about it despite the fact that I have a lot of other things to think about. I have probably been gazing out the window for the better part of an hour at this point. The mere presence of this concept is causing me to start overanalyzing everything once more.
