THE blinding rays are still dim. My blue eyes welcomed by the view of an amazingly beautiful flower garden. It fascinated me to see any kind of blooming flowers and oversized fountains that became the center of this garden.
The sound of feet approaching. I immediately dimmed behind a tree trunk. Two little kids running around the park. The boy in the black hair chuckles at the fact that the child who is smaller than him shouted from his back.
“Louis, give back my candy!” shouted the brunette boy.
“Take it by yourself.”
“Just watch out!” the boy replied with his lisp accent.
They kept running around. Seeing those two boys made me smile. His little brother’s foot knocked out, he fell down. That boy hit the ground pretty hard. He’s getting into a crying. The boy with the dark hair ran up to his brother.
“Are you okay?”
“It hurts.”
<THE icy wind that pierces my skin makes me shiver. My eyes opened slowly, watching the face of a man who was right in front of me. Sturdy jaws. Black hair that’s darker than the night sky. He’s fucking handsome.‘Am I in heaven?’SHIT—I jumped in shock to see that guy open his eyes. I woke up quickly and found myself still in the woods.“What am I doing here?”My eyes looked down. “Where’s my shirt?”Hold on. I’m trying so hard to roll back my memory, remembering what happened last night. Damn! I grabbed hold of my neck to see if there were any scars left there. Weird. There are no injuries.“Do you remember?”I ran away from the man, not caring about the wooden branches that hurt my leg. There&rsquo
I rubbed both palms of my hand while blowing them slowly. It freezes my hands. The snow that falls again makes the air temperature decrease drastically. Winter is a hassle.The snowflakes that melt in your hair. Coat. The shoes. I don’t know why I miss the heat of the sun. The girl with hazel eyes emerged from behind the café door with two plastic cups of hot cappuccino in her hand. The smoke of coffee billowing from behind the glass caught my attention.“This is for you. Bonus from the boss,” Claire said while giving me one of the medium-sized cups.“Thank you. Eh? Bonus?”“I think the boss knows the weather is getting more extreme now. I hear a lot of employees complaining about having to leave when it snows like this.”I nodded quietly. “That means we have to work harder, Claire.”“Yes, you’re right.”
My eyes squinted as the girl with the brunette hair opened the window curtains beside my bed, letting the sunlight through the window. She shook her head slowly.“Ara, let’s get up!” she shouted, pulling up my blanket.“Enghh—”“Hurry and take a shower. Today the master told us to gather.”I nodded, response to Claire’s words. She walked closer, sat next to my bed.“What time did you comeback home last night? We’ve been looking all over place for you, but you’ve fallen asleep in your room.”I smiled while scratching my head, which was not itching to respond in her. There’s no way I’m telling that story about what happened yesterday to the girl, especially William.“You—Next time, please don’t turn off your phone. We worried b
“MOM, I want it!” shouted the three-year-old girl, pointing at the ice cream shop close to where they were standing.Her mother smiling, “you want ice cream, honey?”“Yes, Mom. Ara want it!”The two of them stepped into the place. The little girl’s sapphire blue eyes sparkled when she saw the various flavors of ice cream from behind the display case glass. She thought she is in heaven right now.“Ara, which ice cream that you want?”“Chocolat
The girl with the black hair put a bouquet of purple tulips on the gravestone in front of her. Her hand grazed the name that was engraved on the headstone earlier. Park Hyo-jin. There was a tomb that the two of them used to visit together, her father’s grave.“Mother ... Father ....”Snow falls from the sky. The girl’s head looked up at the sky, which was filled with ornaments of white ice flakes falling down. That’s amazing. She lowered her head again.“We always visit father’s grave, but now I’m sure that mother is happy because you both became together.”She stepped out of the burial area. Tiara walked towards the nearest bus stop. She intends to go to the city library, which is located quite far from this area. Tiara wanted to return the book she borrowed a week ago. The librarian could be even scarier than Hyung-seok if she was late returning the books from
You smile, but you want to cry.You talk, but you want to be quiet.You pretend like you’re happy, but you aren’t...Louis moved from his place, stepped closer to Tiara’s sword that was thrown earlier. He wants to take the sword with his right hand, but there was something that holding him back. His devil’s side.“What are you doing?”“I want to kill you.”“Are you kidding?”Louis tried to take that sword. He failed as if there was a barrier between his hand and the sword, which was only about ten centimeters away. The devil who was controlling his body chuckles.“It’s useless. Do you think a toy could hurt me?”“Loser.”“What do you mean?”“You didn’t let me take the sword. It mea
Theluxurious Mercedes-Benz was racing toward Louis's private mansion which was quite a distance away. I felt awkward in the lap of the man in the black suit. Moreover, there were other people besides the two of us in the car. I don't want Louis's butler to misunderstand our position. "Let me go. I can sit alone." "...." "I said I could sit by myself," I repeated. "Hn." I chuckled irritably, trying to get up from Louis's lap. Unfortunately, pain ran down my spine again. Louis moans softly. My right hand accidentally touched his part. My cheeks flushed, holding back embarrassment. I turned my gaze out of the car
Eleven years ago. The little girl with blue eyes was just staring silently at the large window beside her bed. Her gaze was blank. A nurse is busy changing her intravenous fluids. Then, she gently stroked the little girl's head before moving away from that room. "Doctor, how's my nephew?" “Your nephew has been severely traumatized. Tiara needs lots of rest and therapy. The effects of trauma leave her can't talk. I'm not sure if the effect is permanent or not." The woman walked into the room. She pulled a wooden chair near Tiara's bed. Her heart was hurt to see Tiara. Her's father died since she was still in the womb. Her mother who always by her side. However, fate
The beautiful woman with blonde hair gently ruffled his hair. Louis, who intended to protest against his mother's treatment, chose to remain silent when he saw the queen smiling softly. "Take good care of her. I'm leaving." "Hn." A second later his mother disappeared from there. Louis walked to his room. He opened the door. The man with black hair glanced at the girl who was sleep on his bed. Tiara, who had only been pretending to be asleep, immediately opened her eyes when she felt someone climbing onto the bed. She looked to the other side. Her sapphire eyes met Louis's two dark obsidian. “W-why are you here?!” “....” "Are you-" Tiara's words were stopped because the man's right hand suddenly gripped her cheeks tightly. Louis' black onyx eyes glared at her. "This is my room, idiot. You should be grateful cause I let you sleep her
The boy quickly withdrew his hand, splitting the large man's body in front of him into two halves. The man's body fell in front of Tiara. Blood oozed out soaking the ground around them. The screams of the audience exploded when they saw the unexpected ending of the fight in front of them. The man in the fancy suit up there looked panicked. He was about to leave his chair, but then he stopped. The boy was suddenly standing right in front of him. "You want to run away, bastard?" "Do not come closer!" threatened the man while pointing his gun at the boy with the black hair. The boy walked casually closer to him ignoring the threat that the man had made. The women who accompanied him ran away screaming hysterically. 'BANG!' His irises widened when he saw the boy with the black hair caught the bullet with his bare hand. The man shot again. However, the
.."CAPTAIN, I'll go first. Honestly, I'm so tired," Claire complained to William, who was busy removing some things from the trunk of the car."Yes, I know. You can rest."Claire walked away. After unloading all the things, he closed the trunk of the car. William moved the items into his room. Then, he walked towards Tiara's room. He was about to ask for a report that she had been working on since this morning.William knocked on the door in front of him quite loudly while calling her name. There was no answer from within."Is she asleep?" he muttered softly.William slowly opened the wooden door and stepped inside. "It's so dark. Why doesn't she turn on the light?"'CLICK!'The dark brown irises widened when he didn't see her figure in the room. William runs fast to the bathroom. She is not there. William took out his phone, dialed Tiara's num
The sound of water drops entered my ears. Slowly I opened my eyes. I winced in pain while holding my head which still felt dizzy. I glanced around. Looks like I am trapped in a damp and dirty place, like a dungeon. The pungent smell of rotting corpses pierced my sense of smell. I could not see any further. It is dark. They only use a few torches as a means of lighting. "What place is this?" Suddenly I remembered the figure of the little boy who bumped into me this afternoon. I have to save that kid. Before that, I have to get out of this prison first. I stepped closer to the cell door, touching the iron bars in front of me. I pulled my hand away when my body was electrocuted. "Think about finding another way to get out of here. Destroying this cell is too impossible." There was the sound of approaching footsteps. Two men in black suits walked towards me. One of them took a small remote from h
'If you want to survive, you only have two choices. Kill or be killed.' . . ☘ ☘ ☘ I took a deep breath looking at the laptop screen in front of me. Blank. There was only a white page with a flickering cursor. I have not finished the task of writing the report that William gave me since this morning. My fingers started to move, typing a few words that appeared on the screen. However, I hastily deleted the sentence earlier. My hands ruffled my long hair that looked even messier. I am really fed up with this task. I glanced at my phone vibrating on the table. There appears to be an incoming message on my
"You fucking devil child!" The woman's words kept popping up in Tiara's head. She hugged her knees tightly and buried her face in them. The sound of their laughter and when she punched the face of their leader who had beaten Aland. She remembered everything. That time it wasn't the blood on her right hand that scared her. She felt like she enjoyed the frightened expression on the boy's face as well as the sensation when she hit the boy's face with her fist. It might be true if she was indeed a demon. She didn't deserve to be born into this world. Raindrops began to fall from the sky. The boy with amber eyes ran while looking around. He paused for a moment and then shouted Tiara's name loudly. 'Where exactly did she go?' "Kim Tiara! Ara!" he shouted. The rain was getting heavier than before. The girl walked with her head down. She didn't care anymore about
"We're home." Yura, who heard her little brother's voice from the door, immediately approached the two of them. She smiled gently. "Welcome back!" She said while ruffling her brother's hair, "wait... Is this a plaster? Did you get hurt, Al?" "I-I fell on the ground while playing with Tiara." "Hm? Is it true, Ara?" She asked while looking at Tiara. The little girl nodded, justifying his words. "You should be careful next time." "I promise to be more careful, Yura." "Good boy. Well, you two take a shower first before we get dinner." They both walked to their rooms. Yura was busy cleaning the living room again. Not long after that, the doorbell rang. "Yeah, wait a minute!" Yura put down the cloth she was holding and opened the door. A woman in her thirties was standing at the door with a boy behind her.
Tiara was sitting alone on a swing in the garden. She moved the swing with her feet slowly. Tiara was waiting for Aland. He said he want to buy her a drink. The little girl looked up to see some canaries perched on a tree. Then Tiara looked down, turned to observe a pair of her shoes that were slightly dirty with dust. Her sapphire eyes widened as someone spilled water over her head. She can hear some people laughing at her when the water splashed down on her tiny body. "Hey, do you guys know why she didn't scream?" one boy asked another of his friends. "Because she's dumb!" replied his friend. "Haha!" "Why is this fucking orphan looking down? Are you scared of us, huh?" "She must be scared, boss." One of them grabbed Tiara's hair, forcing her to look up. She glared at the child with the dark brown hair in front of her. "What? Want to fight me? You should pay respect to your seniors!
'Using your tongue to harm others, you will suffer the consequences of your actions.' .. *** Han-Eul's dainty hands were busy tidying up Tiara's long black hair. Then she brushed the child's hair with a small comb in her hand. After that, she locks tiara's hair up. She smoothed over Tiara's bangs a bit. "How cute~ I want to hold you--" The little girl shook her head quickly. "Uh, No! Your hair will ruin again if I do that." The little girl in front of her was sitting quietly in a chair with an expression. She didn't understand why Han-Eul wanted to hug her. She didn't think she was doing anything to prise. "Come on, let's go downstairs." Han-Eul quickly pulled out Tiara's hand and stepped out of their room. The kid with the blue eyes was following Han-Eul's footsteps. She was eager to show her wor
