Dinner time came and everyone settled to share the meal prepared to them by the couple.

" I have to admit that you both are great cooks. Even with my little one being all choosy, I am liking every dish prepared." Vera commented, scooping some more rice into her bowl.

" Are you saying that my cooking isn't good?" Her boyfriend, Joahkim, complained with a pout on his face.

" No offence darling but I don't really like your oh so " nutritious food" sometimes I don't even Know what I am eating. I feel like getting pregnant is a torture to my taste buds." Vera replied straightforwardly, not minding to mince her words.

Everybody burst out laughing at Joahkim for being roasted openly by his woman.

" But I do everything to ensure that you give birth to a healthy baby!" Joahkim defended himself.

" It's good to be mindful of the health of the baby but that doesn't mean you will restrict the mother from meeting her cravings." This time, old lady Antonio chipped in, supporting Vera.

    The phone by her bedside woke her up, Mira's groggy eyes opened, trying hard to adjust to the sudden assault of light.Checking the caller id,the name that flashed ignited flames of hatred in her once innocent soul." Hello Caleb" She answered,her voice alienated. The Mira on the phone was a completely different Mira of yesterday. Something in her had changed. But what is it? No body could tell." Mira,are you okay?" Even Caleb who paid the least attention to her could feel the change in her." Am alright,why are you calling?" Mira asked,not wanting to beat around the bush with treacherous beings." Just calling to remind you of our dinner date. I told you it's special right?" Caleb said.Ofcourse it was special, afterall it was the start of her painful death." I'll be there. If you have nothing else to say,I'll hang up." Mira's emotionless voice echoed on the other side of the phone catching Caleb off guard.For as long as he can remember, Mira was always enthusiastic to prolong the

    " I don't know,do you think he will be proposing today?" Timothy answered with another question." I think so. Should I say yes to him?" Mira asked yet again.Timothy could feel his stomach churn. The picture of Caleb on one knee proposing to Mira brought a bitter taste in his mouth.How could she not notice his love for her? He questioned himself. But Timothy knew better than to force his feelings to her. The person she loved was Caleb and not him so he had learned a better way of masking his feelings by using his signature poker face.He thought staying by her side as a friend was enough,but who was he kidding,he could control his heart from falling deeper and deeper to the abyss called Mira." Tim,are you still there?" Mira asked, thinking that maybe,just maybe he would get tired of masking his feelings and come clean with her. If he stopped her from meeting Caleb that day,she would not meet him. She was trying to see if his selflessness would loose today.One year back,he had told

    " I can see that you've grown some wings and have the audacity to talk back to me!" Her father said gritting his teeth,but Mira traced something else apart from the anger.Was it anger? Disdain or mockery? She couldn't place her finger on that feeling but something came clear,her father wasn't fond of her one bit.For as long as she can remember,her father never paid attention to her other than when reprimanding her. It was just ironical how he loved, spoiled and gave in to each whim of his bastard daughter while ignoring his legitimate one. Mira couldn't believe just how her past self was ignorant, how could she have not noticed that age wasn't wanted in the Jones family. Her father did not consider her family at all.Mira chuckled,a chuckle filled with self mockery," I have always had the wings,just tried to keep them at bay just to give you some respect as a father,but I just realized that you don't deserve it." Mira said out loudly, loudly enough for her words to echo in the four

    Mira took careful steps to the store . She rummaged her purse and removed the VIP golden membership card Timothy had gifted to her. He had told her that she could get a ten percent discount if she presented that card.Walking towards the cashier, she had the intention of asking whether the card was still usable. Timothy had informed her that the card expires after a given period of time.She had never used the card before so she had to inquire about it." Good afternoon,can you check for me if the card is still in use. Someone gifted it to me and told me that it can only be used for a limited amount of time." Mira said passing the golden membership card to the cashier.The cashier was surprised seeing someone come to their small store with the golden vip card. He was aware that money only could not guarantee you the card. One had to have close ties with the CEO to be able to get their hands on that card." Oh Yes you can still use the card in all butterfly stores. The card will expire

Stepping by the lobby, she was about to use the private elevator specifically made for the president when the security guard stopped her." Excuse me Miss, you cant use that elevator,please board the common one." The guy politely reminded her but before Mira could answer, Luke, Timothy's personal assistant stepped out of the private elevator." Miss Jones,you are here?" He asked obviously relieved seeing her here. He had been requesting his president to stop drinking but he wouldn't listen. He just hoped that she will be able to talk him out of drinking." This way please." Luke said ushering Mira to the private elevator. He then turned to the security guard and politely reminded him not to dare stop her next time Incase he sees her there..Luke knew that Timothy would throw a tantrum if he ever heard that his girl was

    Timothy didn't expect that move from her. Over the past few days, the couple only stayed in the house either cuddling, watching movies or making Love. To him, this was the best last days he could give her." What's wrong?" Timothy said, inhaling her sweet Jasmine Scent which always calms him down.Knowing that she would be leaving in a week wasn't something so pleasant, but he knew that he would have to accept it. Accept that soon enough, she would leave him and Jonas all by themselves.He also knew that if she had a choice, she would never leave him, too bad that was something she couldn't control." I'm ugly." Mira replied, conscious of the fact that her body was turning all green.Timothy did not understand why she would say that , and he didn't have to understand either. To him, irrespective of anything, Mira will always be the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. Nothing could deter her beauty in his eyes." You are perfect hun, never doubt that about yourself."

    " The fuck are you talking about?" Yolanda shrieked, disbelief evident in her voice and facial.At first, she thought that it was Vera who was being given the responsibility of the CEO. She thought then she would be the assistant CEO. Who would have thought that Mira was referring to her all along." What? You don't want to?" Mira asked, her voice low and dripping with sadness.She knew that it would be hard to convince Yolanda to take the position she was offering her but Mira was determined to make her agree. She could have chosen Vera as the CEO but she knew under that badass facade of Vera, There's a soft heart that would hinder her in business. Not like she didn't trust Vera but Yolanda was more suited, owing to the fact that she was calculative and heartless, ideal for the business world.Since the convincing was ought to be done somehow, she chose to use her ultimate tool, emotional blackmail.Her pitiful voice was enough to evoke others to do her bidding and that's how she'll

    Timothy nodded, he could only agree with her suggestions because the lady was not someone he knew where she resided. Otherwise, he would set out on a journey to find her." So what are you planning?" That question did nothing to alleviate Mira's mood.She has revealed the secret to Timothy but she doesn't Know whether she's ready to reveal it to anyone else, much less think that they'll believe him. Some might think that she's losing her mind.Seeing her expression of reluctance, Timothy sighed." You do realise that at some point you will have to tell them. No matter how unwilling you are, they have the right to know what is happening to you. This is not something we can hide because it will eventually happen. Do you want others to be left grieving without knowing what actually happened to you?" Timothy was trying to see if she can get to open up to others. While it's not a must, he still felt that her loved one deserved to know what was happening with her. As her family and friends,

    Timothy watched, horrified as Mira's hands transformed to the transparent body he had seen her in his dreams. Before she was totally swallowed by the darkness, her body started to turn transparent.Dread filled every nerve of his being as he strode to her." What's happening to your hands?" He asked with horror filled eyes.Mira who had panicked shook her head frantically, wanting to say nothing was happening to her hands but no sound came.One minute passes before Mira's hands finally turn normal, relief washing through her as she sighed heavily.She squatted, intending to pick the broken shards of the plates.
