I Saw You CHAPTER NINETEEN: To Feel Love
I pulled out the knife and took quick steps backward. My eyes followed the gushing blood from his chest down to his waist. He was losing too much blood but he was just standing there looking at me coldly. Trembling hands, chattering teeth, pounding heart, and breathing roughly. All signs of fear. I felt them all. The fear he caused me was greater than my fear of dying. I understood his lethal silence. I dropped the knife and left him running. I wiped my hands covered by his blood using my handkerchief. I head to my office. My heart ran wild when Hilario showed up in front of me. “I just can’t let you die, Jann.” She blocked my way. I ignored her and continued walking my way. Latching on you would bring my death earlier, Hilario. I felt her run after me and blocked my way again. I ruffled my hair in annoyance. “Until when are you going to do this?” “I won’t stop until I convince you.” She raised her chin. She’s being stubborn. I like the old Hilario. She was once silent on her ow

SERRAI ran and ran as fast as I could. My vision was getting blurry and I couldn’t clearly see a thing. I bumped into someone. I didn’t bother to apologize and just ran. I reached our usual spot and I saw him sitting on the lonely bench.“Grip!” I cried out running.He averted his head in my direction and he smiled the moment he saw me. I stopped in front of him and my heart sank seeing the situation he was in.“Grip...” I reached his face with my trembling hands. His skin was a bit cold.His chest was constantly bleeding. His plain white shirt was dyed deep red because of his blood.“What should I do? What should I do?” My voice cracked and I barely formed the words due to frequent stuttering.I could no longer hold the heartbreak. I clutched on the bench to prevent myself from collapsing. The pain I felt seeing him suffer poured out in a flood of uncontrollable tears.“I-I’ll take you to the hospital.” I brought out my phone to call the emergency hotline but he stopped my hand.“I’l

Grip broke the kiss when my stomach growled. He chuckled and pinched my nose. “Let’s go get something to eat.” He lend his hand to me and I took it. He helped me get up from bed and never let my hand go. He pulled me a chair to sit on and made me watch him. I wanted to help but he said that I need to save my strength. “Grip, how long did I sleep?” I put my head on the table. I feel like sleeping again. “Four days,” he said without glancing at me. He was busy cooking. No wonder why I feel hungry this bad. I looked at his back and familiarized every detail of him. My brows furrowed seeing him in a cream-colored soldier uniform. I blinked my eyes and saw him wearing a black shirt, grey shorts, and a pair of beach walk slippers. I’ve been seeing him in that antique clothing lately. I just realized now that it was a soldier’s uniform. “Here you go.” He placed a plate in front of me with a stack of pancakes. He also made me some coffee. “Aren’t you going to eat?” He shook his head a

“Are you sure you’re not gonna come?” Amanda asked for the nth time. The group decided to go shopping and I don’t feel like going. I wanted to be alone. She sighed when she hadn’t heard a word from me. I heard the door closed. I closed my eyes and covered myself with a thick blanket. I don’t feel like doing anything. I just want to lay in my bed all day. I rolled over the edge of my bed and stayed idle for a minute. My head was heavy and my eyes were burning. My breath was hotter than usual. “Gugu, is there something you want to tell me?” I gave her my begging eyes. “I invoke my right against self-incrimination. I refuse to answer.” She brought her hand near her mouth and moved it along as if she was zipping her lips. I grabbed my towel and stopped in front of the bathroom door. I looked at my waist and hugged the towel I was holding. “Serra, are you alright?” Gugu floated in my direction. “Yes, I’m fine.” I closed the door before she could even reach me. I leaned against the

“We’re here,” Xyrus declared. The car stopped in front of a white two storey mansion. I lowered the car’s window. I saw a man standing in the garden facing the house while watering the bushes. On the second floor, a little girl and a boy were running at the terrace, and a woman peeking at the window. On the front porch, sat an old man on a racking chair. “I’ve never thought you have such a big family.” My lips stretched a smile. He’s lucky to have a beautiful family. To beget something I don’t have. “Serra...” he called in a disturbing tone and diverted my eyes to him. “Grandma lives only with a maid,” he clarified. I gulped and slowly shoot back my eyes to the house. The man in the garden has a hole on his forehead. His blood trickled down his face. The little girl and boy were standing side by side looking in our direction. I couldn’t identify them because of their burnt faces. The woman in the window wasn’t there anymore. The head of the old man on the racking chair was missin

SERRA “Grip!” A girl was running in our direction. She immediately linked her arm with his and leaned her head on his side. Seeing them together crumpled my heart and squeezed it into bits. The girl looked at me and smirked cockily. She got paper-white skin and reddish and delicate lips. She looked like a bright and lively sunflower on her yellow dress. They looked good together. “Let’s go!” She tugged the guy named Grip and turned around. My lips contorted. An axe was dug deep in her back. Her blood trickled down her dress turning the sunflower into a crimson red rose. She turned around and widened a smile at me showing her perfect white teeth. Blood oozed down her chin. Her eyes turned charcoal black and her teeth elongated into razor-sharp fangs. A demon like her was powerful enough to suppress the darkness within her. She even fooled a reaper. Her claws stretched around his neck without him knowing. “Grip!” I promptly threw a yin-yang coin and it hit her claws. The glowing yin

“Why isn’t he healing?” I looked at Grip while his wound is being sutured. My wound was sutured first before his. We were in a place for reapers specifically the infirmary. I could feel that I’ve been here before I just don’t remember when. “He’ll heal if you will,” she answered without leaving his eyes on Grip. Her name was Sham. She got wavy long hair, an oval face, fair skin, sparkling round eyes, turned-up nose, and heart-shaped lips. Her cloak was embroidered with silver. I discovered that the rank of the reapers was determined by the color of their cloak’s embroidery and it indicates the years of them being a reaper. Grip got the highest rank and he was the first-ever reaper and he was followed by Sham. I furrowed my brows at her. “What do you mean?” “The marking was complete. It’s a secret every reaper should keep. Marking someone makes a reaper vulnerable. We heal faster if directly hit but if our salvation was hit we will suffer twice the pain. We will be wounded just lik

“Grip?” I looked around and found myself lying on my bed in our room. I sat in the corner of my bed. I glanced at the digital clock and it was passed four in the afternoon. I napped the rest of the day. The bed next to me was empty and it has been empty for days. Amanda was busy these past few days and the rest of the girls too. Gugu didn’t showing up either. I don’t know what she was up to these days. “What happened?!” I was brought back to bed due to shock when Grip appeared in front of me. I tapped my chest to steady my heartbeat. I glared at him. “Are you going to kill me?” He was standing at the end of my bed while looking down at me. He slowly traveled his sight down my body before locking my eyes with his. He bit his lower lip smiling and put his fingers on his lips as if he was thinking something. “What?” I gave him my bored look. “I love the view,” he huskily whispered lip-biting. I raised a brow at him but he just smirked. He parted my legs and positioned between them

I Saw You CHAPTER FORTY-TWO: Mirror
SERRA “Dad,” I called him.It has been days yet he was still sad and listless.“What can do for yoy, sweetheart?” He forced a smile but the sadness in his eyes was visible.“I-I want to ask you about someone.” I lowered my head.“Come here.” He tapped the space beside him. I obliged and sat next to him. “About who?” he asked.“About my mom,” I stuttered.Hearing the last word he was grief-stricken. I felt bad asking about it.“You don’t have to tell me if you don’t feel like it, dad,” I sincerely said.He shook his. “It’s about time.” He smiled genuinely. “What do you want to know about her?”“What does she look like?” I asked even though I already knew.He moved away and pulled something out of the drawer of his bedside table. He gave me a round object. It was metal-like and silver in color with gold Vines and red roses all over.“Open it,” he told me after handing it over.I ran my thumb tracing the vine and pulled the top part upward. I saw myself, my reflection.“You’re a carbon
I Saw You CHAPTER FORTY-ONE: Shadow
The moment the water swallowed me I held my breath. There’s no way I’m letting the cold enter me. I looked up but it’s all water above me. My hair floats over my head like seaweeds. In the rashness of the moment, I began flinging my arms out.I expect to come back out and I did. I gasped for air before sinking again. I kicked my legs and flapped my arms and I was back to the surface again. But each chance to breathe became further apart. Each breath was less than the last.I tried once more. The more I struggle the more disoriented I became. I felt like I’m trashing inside an invisible prison. My first instinct was to get some air but there should be something else. I couldn’t fight for air forever. I need to find a way out.I pushed with my legs and arms and when I was able to bob my head out of the water, I breath as deep as I could. The water pulled me again. I looked around and saw a wall. The fear I felt was overlain by hope. I flicked my feet and tried to reach the walk. It was
I Saw You CHAPTER FORTY-ONE: That Thing
“No... That couldn’t be.” Kate staggered backward. “It should be there. I should be there,” she repeatedly uttered pulling her hair.I run towards her. “Don’t worry, Kate. We are going to find Lulu’s body.” I assured her and patted her shoulder.She yanked her shoulder away from my grasp and took a few steps backwards. She kept on pulling her hair and her eyes were restless. She didn’t know where to focus them.“W-What if that thing took it? W-What if that thing swallowed it?” Her breathing turned shallow and fast. She punched her head with boths hands wandering with little steps. She’s mentally unstable. I walked near her and caught her hands stopping her from hitting herself.“Stop it, Kate. You’re hurting yourself,” I told her.She already suffered enough. I couldn’t bear watching her like this.“That thing swallowed Lulu whole!” she squealed oogling her eyes at me.I grabbed her cheeks and made her look at me. “What thing, Kate? What thing?”After a moment of touching her face m
I Saw You CHAPTER FORTY-ONE: Big Sis
“I am sorry for ignoring you, guys.” Kate lowered her head. “I was just scared of Lulu. I’ve known her for years and I didn’t know she was capable of any of that. I know she won’t hurt any of you though. She was just after me.” Her voice cracked. I moved closer to her and rubbed her back. Comforting her is the only thing I could do for her right now. “Nothing of that is your fault, Kate. Monsters are made. Envy made Lulu into one.” I pulled her making her lean into me as she sobs. “But she is still the Lulu that we know. She’s a beautiful flower,” I added. She lifted her eyes to meet mine. “Will she become a flower forever? Are we going to meet her, the real her?” “No.” I shook my head. “In the next life I could be an animal or a plant or I could be in your body and you could be in mine. It depends on the decisions we make at this lifetime. That doesn’t mean we aren’t real. The real us is not our flesh but our soul.” I wiped her tears away. She nodded and smile. She leaned against
I Saw You CHAPTER FORTY: Free
I dropped my phone after hearing what she said. I hastely went back to the elevator and ran again toward the gym. It was passed two in the afternoon already. “Serra, here!” Mandy waved her hand at me. I ran in thier direction. I gasped for air. “Where is Amanda?” “Amara called and they were together at the moment. What’s going on?” She looked both worried and confused. I looked at Lulu’s direction and Mandy already got what I meant. “Lulu!” I approached her. She turned around and faced me. She was wearing an ice-cold expression, far from the Lulu that I knew. Something was really not right here. I saw Kate died but her name wasn’t carved at the black scroll. I shook the doubt in my mind and focused to the present. “Lulu, grab my hand and get out of the body.” I lend my hand to her but just like before she just stared down my hand. “Yes, Lulu. Do it. Trust her,” Mandy encouraged. She looked at me and smiled. I was relieved to see her smile but my heart started to race pushing m
I Saw You CHAPTER FORTY: Mourn
“Are you sure about that?” Grip asked. “Yes, bring me back to the mansion. I chose to front my fear.” I firmly said. He nodded and smiled. He was proud. He grabbed my waist and pulled me nigh him. Lulu’s and Dorothy’s name was already written on the scroll of death and today was the thirteenth day from Xyrus’ supposed to be death. I wanted to save them, to do that I need to watch dad’s every move. I was not certain if my plan would work but I have to try at least. “Grip, something’s off–” I turned around but he wasn’t here anymore. “Grip?” I sighed and just walked the long way toward the mansion. He was vanishing from my sight very often this days. It was a sign that he would leave and cross to the other side very soon. As I walk the garden I came across with bronze maids. They would avoid taking the same way as I do. They would even avoid staring in my eyes. I stared at the huge closed door before me. Just by thinking of going inside gave me goosebumps. I took a deep breath. I p
I Saw You CHAPTER FORTY: Sword of Hustling Wind
Fear enveloped me when I arrived at the mansion. Dead bodies of maids were lying everywhere in the front yard. The metallic scent of blood was giving me a feeling of gagging. I looked around hoping that I could find someone breathing but I was too late. Some were beheaded, some were stabbed multiple times, and chopped like a piece of meat. “Ahh!” I snapped my head in the mansion’s direction. I knew that scream and it was coming from the mansion. I ran and ran. Ran as fast as I could. I pushed the mansion’s door wide open. In front of me was dad wearing his usual coldness. In front of him stood Amanda. She was dressed like the lady in red. I saw no emotion in her eyes. Dad placed his hand on her shoulder and whispered to her, “say hi to your sister.” Amanda slowly raised her hand and waved at me like a puppet. “Hi...” Dad’s lips twitched. He didn’t like what Amanda did. His fingers turned black and grew long. Digging its sharpness in her shoulder. “Do it with a smile.” He gritted h
I Saw You CHAPTER FORTY: Previous Life
“Why did we stop?” I poked my head out of my carriage’s window. “A man dropped in the middle of the road, madame,” the coachman responded. I rose from my seat but a man stopped me by grabbing my arm. His face was a bit blurry but the longer I stare the much clearer his face become. My brows furrowed to see Xyrus who was wearing a weird looking clothes from the past. The breeches were long and fairly full in cut, reaching just below the knee. The doublet has a high waist at the sides and back, extending to a point in front. A deliberate opening of the seam on each sleeve allows the fine linen shirt underneath to be seen. He completed his attire with a cape that spans almost a full circle. I looked at myself. I was wearing a deep brown gown with a low rounded neckline and a small ruff paired with a winged collar. The tight sleeves have pronounced shoulder wings and deep lace cuffs. It has a matching petticoat pinned into flounces on a drum or cartwheel farthingale. I looked at him an
I Saw You CHAPTER THIRTY-NINE: Secret Room
“D-Dad?” I whispered. He did not answer. I brought my phone out and opened my flashlight. I directed the light to his face. “Grip? What are you doing here?” He lended me his hand and pulled me up on my feet. “I should be the one asking you that. What are you doing here in the middle of the night? Are you seriously sneaking?” He made me turn my back at him and wiped the dust off my pajamas. “Yes, I am. So will you lower your voice now?” I scolded him in a whispering manner. “Do you think you won’t get caught? Maybe you passed through the elderlies but how about that?” He grabbed my hand and directed my phone’s light to the ceiling. I felt like my effort went to nothing to see the CCTV camera blinking red taunting me. I face-palmed. “You are lucky because you have a handsome boyfriend to the rescue.” He winked at me. “What did you do?” I narrowed my eyes at him. “Don’t looked at me like that. I just saved you from trouble. I moved the camera to somewhere that wouldn’t caught you.”
