"He actually came here to introduce his girlfriend to you." Ken responded, then he looked at Gail mockingly. "Formally." 

"What??" Gail suddenly felt annoyed, knowing that Serin was not actually Jeremy's girlfriend but a housemaid.

And what annoyed her more was the heartbreaking scenario of Jeremy kissing Serin at Campbell Park, to think that they're not even in a romantic relationship. 

"Why? What's wrong with that?" Ken fueled Gail's annoyance. "Can't Jeremy introduce Serin to his friends?" 

Friends. That word alone was a slash in her heart, it was painful.

Ken was right, she was just a friend. She and Jeremy were only friends.&nb

    "Mysterious eyes?" Chris and Ken asked at the same time, flustered. "The first time I looked into her eyes, I saw flashing scenarios that were oddly familiar. But what's strange there is that I was in those scenarios. I saw myself. Even though they were flashing, I was sure that it was me. I thought I was only greatly distressed because of Dave, but I did experience it again. Remember when you talked to me regarding the new sketch she made? That night, when I met eyes with her, I saw scenarios for the second time. And.. a while ago, what I just encountered through her mysterious eyes is really agitating. Do you know why? Aside from seeing flashing scenarios, I also heard my own voice, screaming such a tormenting pain. That's the reason why I painfully screamed while confronting Serin in her room earlier." An overwhelming shock fe

    Even though Dave's journal could confirm he did kill his mom, his psychological disorder could be used as an alibi, a form of defense, to get away from his serious crimes. Because of that voice recorder, Yenny listened to Dave when he had asked her to get inside. She fearlessly faced another unavoidable danger because she wanted to get her bag and escape with it. If Dave was cunning, Yenny was quick-witted. At that time, she easily came up with an effective approach. To appear vulnerable and defenseless just to trick Dave. She had to get the guy's trust again. And she did it. She was able to fool Dave with her sly pretense. Dave touched her face with fondness. "Leave early later, okay? Get my box and b

    Following Jeremy from behind, Dave was wondering why his brother was in Horizon Town earlier than usual. Suddenly, it began to bother him. But the thought of Yenny and his box was freaking him out. Dave thought of distracting Jeremy. He would ask his brother to spend time with him in his room. But he stopped walking when he saw Jeremy go straight to the spacious hallway leading to the dining room and kitchen. "What the heck?" He cussed silently. Shaking his head, Dave just rushed upstairs, feeling more agitated. As soon as Jeremy reached the kitchen, the old lady welcomed him with a happy smile. He was clouded with heavy thoughts, but

    The thought of his undying intimate feelings for Yenny began to discomfort Chris. This unforeseen awkwardness had been driving Chris to keep himself busy. On the other hand, Yenny was totally unaware that Chris was already having a hard time, suppressing his growing awkward feeling because of her. She's completely clueless that Chris has loved her for so long. Yenny feels comfortable whenever she is with Chris, Ken and most especially with Jeremy. She really considers them her close friends, oftentimes her annoying but caring siblings. She is 100% sure that no one, among her guy friends, would ever develop feelings for her. That is impossible to h

    "I am very sorry, Sir Jeremy but I won't come back anymore. I quit nursing Sir Dave." Dave's new nurse, who only lasted for two months, left Horizon and quit her job in a rush. She suddenly reminded him of Yenny. His brother's new nurse and Yenny were the same. For sure, taking care of Dave terribly exhausted and terrified them at the same time. He could not blame them though, but his heart broke for a reason. They could have properly said goodbye but they still chose to leave, without personally telling him. Jeremy felt sad because he did want to at least sincerely thank them before leaving. He hated how this kind of farewell kept piercing his heart to the deepest, just like how his mom le

    Jeremy just informed his best friends that Dave's new nurse already quit her job. They were taking their break in one of the coffee shops in Fermone National University. "We are all aware how frightening Dave becomes when he's throwing a fit. I hope she didn't get hurt. But let's say she's physically okay, the trauma Dave has caused her must be--" "We will help you find someone." Ken cut Chris in and then he patted Jeremy on his back. Silently cursing at himself, Chris just realized that he honestly spoke his mind, not noticing his truthful words anymore. If Ken did not cut him in, he could have blurted out Dave's horrible secret. He could not help it, especially that Dave clearly narrated and describe

    "Throw me a housewarming party, please? I want my party to be fun!" Her eyes were beaming in delight. Unnoticeably, the guy sighed. He felt relieved that Gail's favor was not about Jeremy. "Does your silence mean yes?" Excitement was still on her face. "Do you know free will?" Chris teased her with sarcasm. "Can't you just do me that favor? Please?" Chris sighed as his response. Gail's expression suddenly dimmed. Her excited smile faded. "Everyone envies me, especially my girl friends, because I'm close with you, Ken and Jeremy. But you know what? I no longer fee

    "Where are you??" Chris was obviously greatly worried. "I am just here at the park across Mauve." "Is there any problem?? Tell us." "There's nothing to worry about, okay?" "But.. It's still dangerous for you to be outside. What if Dave--" "I have to do something. It won't take long. I will be back before the night falls." Yenny cut Chris in. A deep sigh was heard from the other line. "Take care. Call me or Ken if something.. you know.." "Thanks for your concern but nothing bad will happen to me." Yenny

    Five years ago."I will send you the exact address, sir." A male voice said on the other line."You have done such a great job. I will call you if I need something. Thank you."

Nervousness began to tremble him while hurrying downstairs.Carl, the private detective that he had hired, managed to find Yenny in just four weeks.As soon as he walked past the living room, someone, who was comfortably sitting on the luxuriously-looking sofa, caught his eyes. He stopped walking. 'What is she doing here?'"Hi, Dave!" Gail greeted him. She rose up from sitting and walked to where he was standing. She was displaying her beautiful smile. "Where are you going? You must be in a rush.""What brings you here?" He asked coldly."You still have the courage to show up this house after you caused a scene here a month ago?" Jeremy showed up.

    Gail simpered. "You think you can fool me??" Gail thought that Dave was just fooling around to tease her since he already knew that she had feelings for Jeremy."What if she really likes my brother, will you do something?""I won't do anything because that's not true and that will never happen." There was certainty in her voice. "Since when did you become fond of playing jokes on someone?She let out a heavy sigh. "Driving for almost three hours now must bore you. If boredom is killing you, play some music. Stop spitting non-sense.""What will I get if I play a joke on you?" He sounded so serious while his eyes were focused on driving.Gail looked at him. How his face plastered seriousness could tell that he was no longer teasing her. That's what Gail felt but the truth was, Dave was only acting. He had to fake seriousness in his voice and expression to persuade her that he was telling the truth.
