“Phyllis, I'm sorry to bother you about this, but I cannot accompany Eon on the set because I'm swamped with my research.” Rui apologetically said over the phone.

“No problem, my dear! I'm actually on the way to Eon's school, so we can go straight there,” said Phyllis, who was driving the car on the way to East City from Lieren.

Seven weeks have passed since her wedding, and she has been living her life as she usually does. Zacharias, her husband, never showed up for the past few weeks and only updated her through the phone. And this made her slowly adjust and properly come to terms with the fact that she married her idol. Though it was an arranged marriage, she still did her best as the new Mrs. Lohr. Aside from diligently visiting her grandmother, she would also visit her father-in-law and have dinner with him to give him updates about his son. From the perspective of their relatives, she and Zacharias appeared to have an amazing relationship. They looked like a harmonious coupl

    “Honey, I'm worried about Eon. Will he endure one week on that reality show?” Chase gently stroked his wife's back. “He'll be fine. Besides, I sent some of my men there to guard them. Of course, Zach has his men there, but I added some more so you'd be at ease.” “Alright. Thanks, darling.” “He better not waste this opportunity since we sent our son as his support!” Rui felt sleepy while comfortably leaning on his husband's chest. She yawned and closed her eyes. “Honey, can you call Aias to inform him that Eon is on the way? Make sure to not tell him about our surprise!” Hearing about his wife's request, he immediately called Zacharias' number. “Yo, bro.” Zacharias greeted from the other end. “Eon's on the way now, so make sure you've got everything prepared for him.” “Bro, don't worry, we're staying in a separate building.” Chase smiled, clearly amused with Zacharias' response. “Thank you for taking care of my son for the time being, bro. I hope you guys have a great time

    A black van pulled up in front of the hotel entrance. Then, a tall man in black alighted from the passenger seat to open the door for Phyllis. “Mrs. Lohr, we've arrived.” Phyllis nodded at him before picking up her nephew, who was fast asleep. He carefully went down the vehicle while carrying Eon. Eli, who was waiting outside, approached Phyllis. “Lis, let me help you with Eon,” he gently offered. Seeing his kind intention, she smiled at him. “Thanks, Eli. Please be careful with this brat.” Eli then carried Eon from Phyllis' arms before escorting her inside the hotel. And Zacharias, who was watching from inside, gritted his teeth in jealousy. He watched his wife smile sweetly at another guy, it was a smile he never received. He couldn't help but feel jealous. Eli has a tall and lean body and outstanding facial features. Besides that, he is an amazing guy. He's someone who would match Phyllis perfectly. If someone else saw Phyllis and Eli, they would immediately think of

    Early in the morning, she prepared Eon to go to a meeting with the crew. She dressed the little kid handsomely, with a cute cat shirt and a pair of shorts. She then tied his long brown hair into a ponytail so he'd look neat in front of the crew. “Auntie, will you be joining me on the games that we'll play?” Phyllis shook her head as she tied Eon's shoes. “Nope, Uncle Zacharias and his friends will be with you there.” Eon felt that it was a shame that his auntie couldn't join him in this show. “I was hoping you'd join us in our game. I heard we'd solve puzzles. What if they can't answer it? We'll lose, auntie." Phyllis chuckled. “What do you mean? Your uncle will solve it for you.” Eon pouted. He was planning to get Phyllis to join him in order to fulfill his mission. That was his step 2. However, Phyllis doesn't want to tag along. “That's too bad, auntie. I'll miss you immediately if you leave me there.” “I won't leave you there, silly. I'll be with the crew the entire time y

    Eli lowered his head as he lightly chuckled. Though he was interrupted by the irritated Zacharias, he didn't mind since he understood his artist's temper. “Apparently, I am.” “I see. May I have a word with you then?” Zacharias impatiently said. He was clearly pissed with Eli's nonchalant attitude. Since last night, Zacharias has been feeling jealous of Eli's relationship with Phyllis. He knew that it was pointless to worry. Eli is a good friend, and Phyllis is his wife. Though he and Phyllis are not intimately close, they have a bond (legally). So technically, even though it was one-sided, he still has the right to be jealous. And seeing them being friendly with each other made him a little bit uncomfortable. Perhaps it was because he wasn't feeling emotionally secure in the relationship. Still, he wants to settle this heavy feeling in his chest. The two stepped away from the crowd and moved to an isolated corner. “Are you close with Phyllis?” he directly asked. He doesn't wa

    “Let's take a quick break! I'll just get this scene fixed later. But Aster's relative had an emergency he needed to deal with, so he left the set. Now, Apollo needs to find the plus one, ASAP,” the director said while massaging his temples. It was a hot day, and now he was encountering trouble. He's going to have a hard time finding a replacement on such a tight schedule. Aster's head hung low, feeling guilty that they had to pause filming because of his cousin. “Bro, don't worry about it. We'll find a replacement,” Ashton, Apollo's leader, said in a comforting tone. “Let's just get someone from our staff? Our manager?” Hendrick suggested. He patted Aster's shoulder. “I'll see who I can contact. But we absolutely cannot fake a connection. Everyone would research who we would invite, so we have to make sure that they are indeed related to us. Our manager is counted as our friend, yes, but we still need to consider the instruction to us. We need to invite friends or relatives ou

    “What's happening here?” a cool monotonous tone cut Eon's tantrums in. “Uncle!” the kid shouted as he hurried to his uncle's side. Zacharias glanced at Phyllis, Aster, and Eli, before turning to his nephew, Eon. He crouched down beside Phyllis to face Eon. “What's wrong, kid?” “Uncle Aster wants to invite Aunt to join the game, but I don't want her to be on another team,” he grumbled. He slowly nodded his head as he listened to Eon's whining. He leaned closer to Phyllis' side and quietly asked. “Do you want to join Aster, Lis?” Phyllis was taken aback by his sudden question. Though he asked in his low voice, it was gentle and calm. It was so different from when he asked Eon earlier. Of course, not everyone would notice this. But Phyllis heard the shift in his voice. “Yes. Besides, it's an inconvenience to everyone if Apollo doesn't have a plus one. You guys would have to wait for their plus one. Since Aster's my friend, why don't I help him out?” she explained. He nodded

    “Alright! Let's start today's challenge with a classic game!” "In this beautiful and romantic garden, we've hidden a few eggs all around the place!” “You need to find more eggs to accumulate more points!” he continued. “The points will depend on the color of the egg. If it's red, then it would be for 10 points; yellow for 8 points; green for 6 points; blue for 4 points; and purple for 2 points.” “That's an easy egg hunt challenge, Alex!” an idol shouted. Alex, the host, chuckled. His lips curled as he slowly shook his head. “It would be an easy challenge if the challenge was just about collecting eggs, right?” “Is it not?” “Of course not! You're in my show!” he said before erupting into laughter. “In order for all the points to be valid, you should be able to solve each question inside the eggs!” he added. “We filled every egg with questions about math, science, and politics—actually, everything under the sun! They're filled with all kinds of questions, so I'm sure you'

    “Eon! We're just talking about something... it's about grown-up stuff.” she tried to reason. She doesn’t want to give out more details because they're currently playing against each other. "Auntie, are you discussing real-world problems with Uncle Aster?” Aster burst into laughter upon hearing Eon's innocent remarks. While Zacharias and Eon just stared at Phyllis, both waiting for her answer. She sighed. “It's just about our microphone clips.” Eon went up and hugged Phyllis, who was crouching, still upset that he had to fight his aunt. "Auntie..." "I miss you..." "Let's not fight, okay?" Phyllis heard the slight hesitation in his voice. It was clear that he was having a hard time processing everything. He was prepared to play with other idols, but not with her. She understood that he was upset because he did not want to play against her. For a competitive kid like Eon, winning is everything. Even at a young age, he wanted to be challenged. Perhaps it stemmed from the way

    Zacharias remembered the moment when his childhood playmate, Phyllis, developed a fear of blood because of an incident when they were young. After that incident, he limited his visits to her as she was attending therapy. He felt guilty for what happened to her. If they did not play in their house on that day, then perhaps, none of it would have happened. Now that 15 years have passed since that incident, the memories still remain vivid. But thankfully, it's only him that remembered, not Phyllis. Seated comfortably in a coffee shop in East City, he sipped his coffee as he waited for Hill, his online friend that he impulsively invited for a coffee. 'He said he'll wear the Grand Monster hoodie that we bought online…' He looked around and saw no one who wore the same hoodie that he was wearing. Cling-ring! The sound of the door chime ringing prompted Zacharias to look at the entrance. There he saw a person wearing the Grand Monster hoodie. But… That person is not someone who

    On a sunny day in the Lohr family's mansion, two little kids were playing in the garden. Zacharias was happily playing with the three years old Phyllis, who was the daughter of the family next door. “Aiash, hide and sheek! Hide and sheek!” The little Phyllis yelled as she ran around the garden with Zacharias chasing behind her. “I'm coming to get you!” he teased as he grabbed her arms. Phyllis playfully giggled as she shook her arms away from Zacharias. “Hahaha! No more tag! Hide and sheek now!” she requested from her playmate. “Okay, okay. Let's rest first.” He then led her to lean against the tree. “Aiash, let's play more games when Lian gets home!” CRASH! The loud sound startled the little girl which prompted her to hold onto Zacharias' shirt. “Aiash, Aiash,” she nervously gripped his shirt. “WINSTON I HATE YOU!” CRASH! CRASH! “Stop it Victoria! Zach will hear you!” Screams from the inside of the house can be heard from the garden. Zacharias, who was so us

    “You…” her voice quivered as her hands started to loosen her grip on the handle.She lightly opened the door, enough for him to enter. But because of her fear of confrontation, she still hid behind the door. Her eyes were shut, still nervous about meeting him again after how many days. She knows it’s him. She knows him by his voice. She knows him by his scent. She knows him by heart. THUMPTHUMPTHUMPHis clean scent smelled like home is getting stronger. ‘He’s near…’‘He’s here…’Her heart thumped violently as the excitement, happiness, guilt, fear, sadness, and anxiety fill her in. She felt everything all at once. But it did not feel suffocating for her. Rather, she felt so comfortable, like she was in her safest place.“I’m here now,” he whispered as he pulled her into his arms. ‘I… I’m home…’She gripped his shirt tightly as she guiltily shed tears. “I’m sorry…”“I’m sorry for leaving, Aias… I’m sorry…” she said in between her cries. Zacharias hugged her tightly and said

    “Phyllis, where are you?! Your husband went here and told us what happened! Why did you suddenly leave?!” The moment that Phyllis settled in her hotel room, the loud voice of her mom reached her ears. “Mom, calm down…” “Calm down?! You did not tell us that you're going out of the country and you expect me to calm down?! You did not even answer all of my calls earlier! We were so worried!” “Zacharias told me you wanted to get away from the press and we understand that… But you have to at least inform us so we can make necessary arrangements for you!” Phyllis held her phone tightly as she braced herself for her mother's scolding. “Mom…” “You're not a teenager anymore, you're an adult! You don't have to tell us everything that you do but you have to at least not make us worry!” Phyllis sat at the edge of the bed and quietly listened to her mom speak. She did not have the heart to respond to her, especially if she knows that she was in the wrong. “Phyllis, I know you're stres

    "Sir, we've already cleared them off.” Zacharias peeked through the window to see if there were still some people from the press. They were quite easy to spot. They're usually wearing face masks and caps with huge cameras in tow. Seeing that there was none, he turned to Phyllis, who was busy packing his stuff. “Good. Please get the car ready, we're going down now,” he said on the phone. He then tucked his phone inside his pocket and approached Phyllis. “Is there anything else we need to pack, babe?” Phyllis just shook her head and said, “Nope, I got it, babe.” Just as she was about to head out while carrying the tote bag, she was hugged by Zacharias from her back. His strong arms embraced her dainty shoulders and whispered, “I miss you…” Phyllis, who was still not over with the commotion from earlier, dismissed him with a tap on his arms. “Don't be ridiculous, we're literally together. How can you miss me?” He inched his body closer to hers, letting her feel the warmth of

    With all the controversy about the Klein family, they were completely mobbed by reporters, trying to get a statement from them. In just a matter of two days, the kind-hearted mayor disappeared from the public. Soon after the various documents that were reported, another video went viral. It was a video of Mayor Klein mocking the poor victims of a fire that destroyed a small neighborhood in the city. The area was small and a little cramped and so firetrucks had a hard time killing the fire until it ate the majority of the houses. In the video, the mayor was smiling to the public and promised to help them as much as he can as he helped with the distribution of basic necessities like food and clothing. But the next clip showed him mocking the victims because they were dirtying his beautiful city. His statement instantly gained critics. His image as the kind and caring mayor of Lieren City was crushed in a matter of seconds. No one likes a politician who looks down on his people. “

    A large amount of Rohypnol content was found in his lab results. And contrary to what Phyllis suspected, the drug was not laced in the microchip but on the needle itself. Zacharias woke up after three long hours and is currently resting. He's just waiting for the drug to leave his body. The microchip was also taken out of his arm per his request and Phyllis' insistence. “Babe, please stop crying… The chip is already taken out…” Zacharias consoled Phyllis, who was sitting beside his bed. She has been taking care of him earnestly and has not taken a good sleep since the incident. He gently patted her back to comfort her. “I'm sorry… I'm so so sorry… We were researching microchips, babe…” “Hick—and the person who made that was a colleague of mine… If only I did not introduce this technology to him,” she said in between her sobs. She felt incredibly guilty about what happened to Zacharias. “Babe, it's not your fault. It's all on Tiffany who orchestrated all this, okay? It'

    The ambulance rushed to the hospital with the unconscious Zacharias, Phyllis, and Leila cramped inside. Now that Phyllis got Zacharias to safety, everything that went down earlier started to finally sink in. When she attacked the bulky man with her heels, it did not cross her mind that some of the blood would squirt on her face. Her hands started to tremble at the sight of blood on her cheeks. She then tapped Leila and murmured in her shaking voice, “Blood…” Noticing the few streaks of blood on Phyllis' face, she hurriedly wiped them off with her blouse. “Shh, it's gone now…” She held Phyllis' hands and gently massaged them. “Okay, breathe with me…” “Inhale…” “Exhale…” “Inhale…” “Exhale…” Leila guided Phyllis with her breathing exercise. Rui taught everyone in their circle how to properly assist Phyllis in case she was triggered. Physical manifestations such as trembling, trouble breathing, and fainting were seen when Phyllis was last triggered. They continued with the bre

    A loud thud resounded inside the men's comfort room as Zacharias fell to the floor. His consciousness slowly faded as he tried to reach out for his phone in his pocket. Soon after, a small red light blinked from his right arm. A girl inside a luxurious hotel room tapped the screen on her tablet, revealing a location in Dixon City. “Hurry and bring him up,” she said on the phone. “Got it, miss.” Satisfied with the turn of events, she took a good sip of her pink moscato. “I'll have to thank Auntie Vic for revealing the group's location for tonight.” She giggled as she browsed Phyllis' Ninstagram account. The simple photos posted made Tiffany sneer. She hated Phyllis' perfect life. She despised how Phyllis was cherished by her rich family. She envied how she was surrounded by a successful group of friends. She detested how she excelled academically and in her work. Above all, she hated how she got her crush just because she was his childhood friend. After getting humiliated
