The pairs of eyes meet when Both of them get out of the rooms. Their eyes look at each other, observing lovingly." Here is our perfect couple! Wow. The couple dresses are perfect on them!" She walks out. Her figure is gracefully adorned in a floor-length, ebony gown, its fabric glistening with a subtle sheen. The dress accentuates her slender frame, with a plunging neckline that draws attention to her décolletage, and a tasteful side slit revealing a hint of her leg. Her shoulders are bare, giving a hint of her attractive frame. Vasquez's eyes don't retreat, watching the alluring girlfriend whose appearance dims every single thing in this room. Shining, glistening like his only wishing star who he has as him forever. Her eyes are reflecting the shock after seeing the person she adores so much in that crisp, onyx black shirt which is tailored to fit snugly on his body, and broad shoulders without any problems. The Rolex watch, the styled hair and black framed sunglasses, everything
Leona's POV... ” Dad! Do you have to leave us? Please stay. I love you so much. I can't live without you too!" When I cried out loud with my broken heart in the court. My Dad held my hands and pecked on them as he used to do before he left for business trips. But on that day, it was his last kiss before separating from our small sweet family.Yeah... To me... It was a happy sweet home. I didn't understand what sadness was. A beautiful mother, a handsome Dad, and a great society where I grew up. But on that day, My Das left lots of kisses and told me...“ One day, you will understand why Dad had to leave. Until then, please grow up as best as you can. If you need Dad's help. Dad will be there anytime for you!" On that day, I couldn't wait to become a grown-up girl and learn about the reason for his leaving.But till today, I have learned one thing. Dad has done a great thing by leaving Mom. And I don't have any remorse for thinking this way. If I was in his place, I would have left
God bless me and my endurance to keep watching the shameless mother of mine and not-to-bother handsome, cold, and grumpy rich guy.For twenty minutes, we are having dinner. Within the moment, my mother had tried everything to touch her soon-to-be billionaire husband.But you know, as I said before, he is a total red flag for my mother which she deserves. He, like a perfect dodger, dodges her every single shameless act. Man! You deserve to be called Master than Uncle. Unfortunately, I am not allowed. ” Leona, Right?" Damn! Don't talk to me, My Dear step! Your cold tone suddenly changing into something normal for me, can bring a very painful death for me. Your soon-to-be wife hates me for looking more beautiful than her already. Hahhh~” Yes! Uncle!" I said stealing another glance at my mother who is fuming anger. I can see the dagger in her eyes”How long have you been with your Aunt?" Is he trying to know about my mother? What should I do?I looked at my mother to get a signal to
Did I die? I don't feel pain though. But it's Dark. Where am I? Heaven? Maybe under the grave. I don't think they will leave a trace of me. Or the Police will find out. But... I thought death is painful. Seems like It's nothing. Will Mom cry for once if she can't find me? Is she trying to find me? Probably not. She won't bother if I go missing for years. After all, I am nothing but a problem.Never mind - Nothing works well in my life. It's better now. I feel better. I wish I could meet Dad for once. No~ It's fine though. I will wait until he dies.How many years do I have to wait? I'm now 18, Dad is 42, People probably live for 60 or 70. Then if I calculate the age that is left to die. How many years do I have to wait? I, 2, 3...Fck you, Mathematics. You are not my thing. I wonder which idiot brought the math for students. Why need to burn all brain cells just to count some numbers? Shhh. I am frustrated.Wait! I was supposed not to be frustrated in heaven. But Look, I am surely fru
I told them that I would be in school. But to be honest, I have no strength to see my mother getting married to an innocent man who didn't do anything wrong to deserve a woman like my mother. It pains me. It hurts when I think I am letting an innocent person get tricked by my mother. Somehow, I am hating this modern technology. If there had no way to change one's appearance, maybe my mother would give up on holding her youth and enjoy the process of being older.But I can't do anything. My heart can bleed but I don't want to get involved with my Mom's personal life.Shall I meet Dad? I called one of his friends, he said he doesn't live far away from our city. It will be better to spend a day with him, rather than suffering on my own.As planned, I took the subway to get there. Thanks to my student I'd, I can go anywhere free by train. I feel so tired as well. My feet are hurting. Last night's trauma hasn't washed away from my mind but I feel relaxed just thinking about my Dad Will he
With my shattered heart, I head to the subway. It's risky at this hour. But who cares? It's not like I have something to be feared for. Everything, everyone around me is leaving me, cruelly and with no second thoughts. It's better to lose my mind and die somewhere in the corner of the world. No expectations, no more dreams.My fat teardrops course down before I can find myself crying. It's pathetically, hopelessly, and miserably sad. Why does it have to be my life?There has been no single day that I wish for something bigger. All I wished is to get a simple life. However, Now my life is playing with me. "Hey! Kid. Why are you here alone?" A middle-aged man got my attention as he opened the door of the entrance." I am not a kid. I am Eighteen years old. And looks at me. I am much longer than any average Eighteen years old girl!" I said wiping my tears. Of course, my voice resounded the pride of my height. But, the man reacted with a chuckle and let me in."Where are you heading to
The night spent knowing that my Mom's husband brought me to his private Villa instead of where my Mom was staying. Although it doesn't matter to me, it's weird that he didn't go to my mom's or she didn't call him to complain. Right now...I am having breakfast with him. His silent and unapproachable Aura doesn't allow me to look at him. Unintentionally, a sort of fear always works within me. ” What is it? Isn't the food your taste?" He suddenly asked placing his fork aside. " No. It's fine" Honestly, I don't feel like eating. As if, my all energy is being sucked. My body feels weak yet my chest is heavier." Finish the food. We are going to school for your admission!" " We? I can go alone. Don't worry about it" I don't want to owe him more. He saved me twice. This time I can do it by myself." I didn't ask you for your permission or opinion. Finish the food!" He left the table after giving a death glare at me. He must be pissed because of last night.Damn! It's so strange that h
Leona's P. O. V...Life has been dotted with many events. Unfortunate or Fortunate, Beautiful and saddening, Warm or cold. A life that I am leading so far. One thing I have understood is that I am not lucky. Not everyone is lucky enough. But I am not lucky in every aspect. That's why I like to let go before I can see the results. And, unfortunately, time proves that I am indeed right. I am not lucky." Please stop here. I have to go to work!" I told the driver to stop by the roadside. I have to attend my job or say goodbye to my pocket money." What work? You don't have to. I told you I took your resp-"" Thank you. But I don't want to depend on you entirely. I am glad that you are taking responsibility for my education. But I don't want to rely on you entirely!" I said getting off the car. I don't want to owe someone. " Why can't you?" I stopped when he asked me. Raising my eyebrows, I look at him." I don't want to. " " Why? I need an exact reason!" He insisted. What's going on

"Nobody told me that today is your birthday. That's bad!" Leona pouts, kinda disheartened by everyone that nobody let her know about Vasquez's birthday. She might have prepared something for him beforehand. However, what is done is done. She wants to buy something for him...But...Vasquez is too stubborn to let her go now. Wrapping his arms around her waist, Vasquez is standing in front of the ocean with Leona. From time to time leaving some kisses as he missed her so much." It's okay. Usually, I don't celebrate my birthday. But this time, it's exceptional. I want to spend my day with you. Only you!" Leona blushes lowering her gaze. " Do you wish me to do something for you? Anything is fine. Anything that you want to eat?"" Hmmm. Let's go on a date!" " A date?"" Yes. Our first official date. Let's go on a date!" Leona knows there is no way that she will reject his wish. Nodding off her head, she agreed to go on a date. Their first and last date...****The entire day, both of
When they handed the passport and two tickets to her hands, she confusedly looked at them. " How?"" Shall we go? Let's go somewhere beautiful!" A wave of unwillingness and fear work within her, somehow she is thinking negatively about this journey since they are so into taking her abroad or somewhere. It would be better if they took her to Vasquez than wasting time somewhere else." We are returning home anytime the next day? right?"She asked when she saw the returning ticket. If something doesn't seem right, she will return as soon as possible. " Yes. We are. Anytime you want." Anne said walking towards the immigration department.Leona nods, and carefully puts the returning ticket in her purse, making sure she can get it anytime.However, her eyes go to the name of their flight. Somewhere familiar..." Shall we go? It's our plane!" Vina holds her hand and smiles.Nodding Leona follows her. This is the first time, she is going to fly. However, it doesn't make her as happy as she
"Yes. That's right. You all don't have to return for two days. Spend your time with your family. I will notify you all once we return!" After entering the house, Leona finds everyone being so busy with work, Other than Vina, Anne, and Butler, nobody is at home when everyone is supposed to return home today. Confused, she walks towards Anne who is cleaning the couches, mattresses, and other furniture. The speed of her cleaning is giving away her rush to get them finished. " Are we expecting guests?" As she speaks, three of them look at Leona as If they were waiting for her. " Young Miss is here. Vina! Help her to get ready. I will handle everything here!" Pushing Leona toward Vina, Anne shouts. They are in a rush. Vina meanwhile, stops wiping the glass off the dining table and holds her hand. " Wait! What happened? What do you mean by getting ready?" Leona flinches seeing them in so hurry as if they're running away from the house. " No more words, Sweetheart! Let's get ready.
Next day...The social anxiety that never left Leona suddenly disappeared. Since she has nothing to lose or nothing to gain, even getting scared of people seems to be a joke to her. Despite getting uncomfortable around people, she ignores her all problems. She has to leave her entire world here, anything can't be bigger and scarier than this. Right now, Leona follows the constable who is heading inside the visitor room. She is going to meet someone whom she wishes to choke to death. However, she can't. Her life is always a joke. She doesn't want to add more jokes to it.Dragging the chair, she sits in front of a very familiar stranger, who she once wanted to see happy and healthy. Who she loved so much that despite being abused by her mother, she kept living on. " It's been a while. Are you living well?" Her cold and nonchalant voice doesn't feel like it belongs to an eighteen-year-old girl." Why are you here?" Her father asked coldly." To see how miserable you are now after ma
" You don't want to work anymore! Did something happen?" Rick, her Boss questions as she asks to quit the job. Leona shakes her head while sipping her smoothie. She doesn't want to talk about it. Still, she needs to give some excuse to quit the job that she has been working for a long time." It's very personal. I don't want to say the reason. I will work till Thursday. Please don't tell anyone about my leaving the job!" She requests as she knows Vasquez will eventually find out if she tells anyone. " Is it because of Our Boss? He wants you to stop working!" " Do you think so? Nobody can stop me from working if I want to. It's definitely nothing. Just do as I said. Don't worry. You will get some employees better than me!" She said smiling brightly. It's time to say goodbye to everyone. And her very familiar old life. " Fine. I am just heartbroken to see my most lovely and loyal employee is leaving me. But Best of luck!"" Thank you, Boss! I have to somewhere. Let's talk later!"
" We can help you for five more days! We have an emergency patient who will occupy the room where your brother is staying! Please contact us as soon as possible!"The wine creates a deafening silence in her ears as she stands before the wild sea. The voice call from the hospital where her brother is being kept was sent to her since she was unable to receive it. Her eyes get lost in the vastness of the ocean. Wishing, if she could disappear without any trace. Where she would go, where she would stay and what she would feed her brother, all of those questions would have disappeared with her disappearance." Young Miss! We are taking pictures. Please join us!"" Sure!!!" Her smile appears as free and lovable, trustworthy and pure. However, she knows, her cheeks are exhausted, her heart is bleeding and her body refuses to act like she is happy.She wants to embrace those ten people who are waiting for her to join them, be with them as family, as their beloved family.But she knows, every
" Here goes another sigh!!!" Everyone is watching Leona who is constantly sighing, while doing her math in the dining room. Since she doesn't want to spend time alone, she decided to study in the dining room to see everyone working, around her. However, Anne and Vina who are helping Chef to prepare the ingredients for dinner, have been observing her nonstop sighing. The frown on her forehead and the sad look on her eyes don't get ignored by them. " Young Miss!" Anne places a few grapes on the plate and sits on a chair. Her solemn eyes shift on Anne with a forced smile. " Do you need something, Aunt?" " Shall we go for a walk? With Belle. She is bored of staying home all day long." Saying she gets closer to Leona and whispers..." She misses her Mommy too much!" Leona giggles as she whispers and nods. " Let's go. What about we having dinner outside with everyone?" Her eyes spark with excitement as she suggested. It will be perfect for her to spend time with everyone together." D
At evening...In a luxurious VIP suite, two people are sitting on the bed tucking themselves inside the blanket. The orange hue of the evening sky is peeking through the transparent curtains, making them frown from time to time. One of them is too speechless to form any correct words out and another one is still too drunk to understand the situation. " I... I think it's a mistake... We shouldn't have..." Sophie grabs her dress before speaking as Aaron wakes up after two hours, yet to be sober. However, her words bring him to reality. His eyes reach to his wristwatch, and with a panic, he might have missed the flight at night. But when he realises that time didn't pass that much, a heavy sigh of relief heaves." Are you listening to me?" She said coldly, shaking him constantly. Aaron's silence is bothering her. She is on the way to call off the relationship. She has yet to move on. How could she make a stupid decision? They have crossed some lines and are now on the way to regret.
