Zacharias woke up to the sound of his phone ringing. Before he picks up his phone, he glances at the woman beside him. His wife, Phyllis, is sleeping peacefully while hugging his body.

Now, there's no pillow separating them.

She's not hugging a pillow either.

It's just them under the sheets, closer than before.

He then reached out to his phone with his hand and pressed answer.

“Hello?” his raspy voice answered, still half-awake.

“G–good evening Aias, is it a bad time to call?” a weak voice asked over the phone.

Surprised by her sudden call, he instantly stiffened up. “Grandma! You're always welcome to call me whenever you want!” he energetically said.

“Well, I'm glad… I just… I called because I wanted to talk to you…”

Noticing that the old lady on the other line was having a hard time talking, he couldn't help but feel more worried. “Oh? Grandma, please do tell.”

“Aias, you know that any minute, I could leave you guys, right?”

He froze upon hearing her say this. “Gr

    “Sis, let's do Holler's dance challenge?” Cassiel asked Phyllis after finishing his meal. Phyllis was slightly surprised as she was not expecting to be this close to them immediately. Still, since she has already discussed dancing with Cassiel previously, she responded, “Sure! But let's rest first.” “Phyllis, I heard that you and Katie are friends.” She turned to Ryder who asked the question and smiled. Though she became friends with Katie in this setting, they have a close relationship as an idol and a fan. “Yes, Katie and I became friends,” she answered with a light chuckle. She was feeling happy now that she was getting close interaction with her idols. 'I feel like I succeeded as a fan,' she thought as she observed her idols. Ryder nodded. “Yeah, she's mentioned you a few times before so I know. She said that you're her fan.” “Yes, I've been a fan of Holler since I was in high school.” With her response, the members of Luna all looked surprised, even her husband.

    Phyllis frowned. “No, I don't think they had bad blood before their encounter the other night.” Rui nonchalantly nodded. “Don't say I didn't warn you.” Phyllis was still confused by her friend's ambiguous remark. While she knows rivalry is usual in any industry, she's not aware of the rivalry between Zacharias and Aster. There is a lot of competition in their industry, but she's confident that Zacharias' group would continue to thrive as they are a well-established band. She just doesn't want to believe that Aster will do something to ruin them. 'We're old enough to understand what should be done. He's not dumb enough to expose us. I don't want to expose him to what he did to me as it will negatively affect me in some way. But it's not hard to find his dirt in a roundabout way.' 'It's easy to divert the media's attention with all the data I have against him.' 'But compared to Zacharias, Aster's name is nothing… The media might not pay attention to him…' Her mind was filled

    Due to the turn of events, they all rushed back to Lieren City. The band, Luna, which was supposed to shoot a few contents while they are in La Estella, also went back to the city as a way to mourn for Zacharias' in-law. Zacharias even took an indefinite leave from the group activities because of what recently happened. He did not think that he can continue to work in this condition. Not after what happened to his dear Grandma Sandra. Not during this dark time. “Babe, at least drink water,” said Zacharias while giving her a glass of water. Phyllis just weakly glanced at it and shook her head. “I don't feel like it.” The couple arrived at the hospital after her grandmother's body was cremated. It was in her will that she be cremated immediately after her death. Unfortunately for Phyllis, they arrived after her grandmother's cremation. Zacharias did not want her to stay in a place that would make feel more dpressed, so he took her home. Tears flowed down her cheeks as sh

    “Grandma Emilia?” Phyllis murmured with a frown as she observed the person who went inside their family's private mausoleum. “Aren't you going to welcome me, Phyllis, and Phylian? I just want to visit my dear sister again, that's why I came again,” she explained as she fanned herself with her hands. “Did you guys turn on the AC? It's hot outside and I'm sweating, oh gosh!” She walked up to the twins and sat beside them. She fixed her hair and crossed her legs as she stared at her dead sister's portrait. “You know, your grandma was arranged to marry my husband. But she declined because she was dating your grandpa in secret.” “And do you know what she did next? She eloped with your grandpa and never looked back.” Though weirded with the story they were being told, the twins still listened. It was not a new story to them anyway. They knew that their grandparents eloped. However, they never heard Grandma Emilia's side of the story. “Back then, my parents gave her hectares of l

    Phyllis stared at her grandmother's sister in disbelief. “Grandma Emi… My grandmother only left that land to me as my inheritance…” “How can I give this to you? This land is from my dear grandmother!” Emilia crossed her legs before placing the documents down on the table. “I believe I already told you that the land was supposed to be mine after all. Our parents only gave it to her because she eloped with your grandpa.” “So be an obedient child and give up the land. I'll pay a handsome price for that useless piece of land!” Harold rose from his seat to mediate. “Auntie, please respect my daughter's wishes. If she doesn't want to sell it, no one can force her.” Emilia mockingly laughed at her nephew. “Harold, you know for sure how your grandparents never bothered with your parents.” “Since I was the one who fulfilled that marriage arrangement, I should be the one to receive that land!” Harold sighed in frustration. “Auntie, you should have said this to your parents back then.

    Zacharias's brows furrowed. “What news?” “You might want to check the trending posts right now. It's about your episode in Show Me Your Guts that was broadcasted earlier and people are talking about it.” “Among the latest posts about it is about another dating scandal of yours again. You can check it out if you have time.” He heard Eli exhaustedly spit out those words. And with his tone, he could discern that this news is about him. Again. “Alright, I'll check,” he uttered before ending the call. He placed the phone down on the bed again and opened up the strawberry yogurt he got for his wife. “What did they say?” asked Phyllis, who was quietly eating on the side. It was not unusual for Zacharias to answer phone calls in front of her. He's been more open to her ever since the filming of the show. “It's just about the broadcast of our episode. Eli informed me that a lot of people are talking about it, so I want to check.” “Oh, really?” she dejectedly responded. She's not

    After settling the inheritance paperwork, Zacharias drove Phyllis back to the Lu Estate. The processing of documents went smoothly. Partly because before Grandma Sandra's passing, everything was already settled. They drove back slowly to the residence with a gloomy atmosphere. Of course, understandable, dealing with all these after a loved one's passing is stressful. However, Phyllis had to guard the property up in fear that her grandmother's sister would claim it. Her grandmother's sister is by no means a simple character. She's a powerful woman backed up by a brigadier general. Of course, she would have the power to swallow up any property she wants. Phyllis understood that the land is important. It's an important asset in the city suburbs. What she just couldn't get is why this specific land. Why would she covet this specific land? Is there something wrong with it? What value does it have for her to go far for a piece of land? Phyllis racked up her brain thinking about her gran

    “Thank you, Elli,” she smiled at her friend, completely understanding the reasoning behind this whole ordeal. Ellianna jokingly hit Phyllis' shoulder. “Oh, dear, I know you're thankful~” Phyllis showed the picture of Aria and Eon “Did you know that when they were taking this photo, Eon has a bruise on his tiny arm?” Hearing this made Ellianna's eyes widen in disbelief. “The audacity?! How could she do this to our cute and adorable Eon?!” Phyllis looked at the photo in disdain. “Right? I get that she likes my husband but I hope that she does not involve the child.” “How did she manage to do that to Eon? Did you tell Rui?” Phyllis shrugged her shoulders. “The bruise is so visible on that kid's porcelain white skin, how can I hide it from her?” “How about your husband? What did he say?” Phyllis paused. She immediately recalled her husband's previous reaction when the evidence was shown to him, and it instantly soured her mood. Just the thought of it irritated her. Sure, it w

    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
