Soralina knocks on the large door, not bothering to ring the bell as she waits outside with her face void of any emotions. After what feels like hours, the door finally creeks open and the head of a middle ages lady pops out, watching her in confusion. “Can I help you miss?”“Is Louise inside?” Soralina asks with a monotone voice, making the lady raises her eyebrows as she glanced inside the house, then back at the pink head. “Yes he is he-““Good.” So saying, she barges into the house, pushing the door open wide while the startled maid follows after her. “YOUNG MISS! Miss you can’t barge in here like this! Young Master is very angry-““Go.” Soralina says after doing a quick scan of the house before turning to the maid. “Tell your young Master that his girlfriend is here. He will not be angry anymore.”Many have said that before. The maid thinks to herself with worry in her face. And they all died when they barged in.“Don’t worry.” Soralina says, once again staring at her surrounding
A week has passed since the day of the twins birthday, since that God awful party and since Gustav Russo and Choi Jongil made a fool of themselves in front of their allies.And now, after a week later, Gustav is fully recovered, getting ready to leave the Hospital for good.But unlike Gustav, Jongil doesn't seem to be that...lucky. For even after a week has passed, the man is still bed ridden, still under critical state and still...unconscious.For the blow that he had taken to his head might be much much more fatal than it had seemed. Raising in unwanted fear among the Russo'sAgatha runs her fingers through her hairs in frustration while Louise stares down at her with his hands folded across his chest. Agatha bits down on her lower lip, making Louise follow her every movement including that, sucking in a deep breath.Control yourself you animal. She knows you are dating her sister for fucks sake!"So, you are telling me that, if your dad doesn't make it, then you will wage war on us
The anger that she had so hardly pushed back, the fire inside so painfully controlled, all came resurfacing back to the top the moment she sees the two of them together."We can finally be together." Isn't that what she said? They want to be together?Sure, in Hell I will let them be.Bianca slowly walks forward, wary of the girl’s anger. "Agatha? I can explain. You just have to listen-"Bam!The slap echoes all over the room, finally making Gustav lose his cool as he flinches backwards at the impact of the slap on Bianca' s face. Meanwhile Agatha glares at the lady, wishing more than anything to continue her assault."Explain what you whore monger?""AGATHA!""SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH GUSTAV!" Agatha thunders, surprising the man with the amount of anger in her.He looks at her in confusion, unable to understand why she is reacting so strangely when she already knows what kind of relationship the two had. But soon, he will find out.Because all the pep talk Agatha had given her sounded
The sound of car tires screeching behind Louise’s car has him cursing under his breath as he makes this turn and that, trying to get the cars that are tailing him to leave him alone. But no matter what he does, Gustav’s men still find him somehow in every turns that he takes, never stopping.He glances at the unconscious bleeding girl on the back seat, his heart hammering so hard in his chest that he feels like it will explode. Roughly he dials a number, before the person picks and just when they are about to greet, Louise screams.“SUHO!” He yells, startling the man. “Where the fuck are you?”Suho almost jumps out of his skin, scaring the shit out of him. “W-why what’s wrong? What-““Get here right now! Get the man and get them out of my tail!”Suho doesn’t need to be told twice. Although he has o idea what on earth Louise is talking about, he for one knows what it means when you get a sudden call from your boss screaming at you to get rid of something.“On it bro.” He says before tr
Lucian walks inside the room with a pack of ice before handing it over to the girl in the bed, her hand still pressed over her neck. She looks up at him meekly before taking it from his hands with her own trembling hands. “Thank you.”The moment she grabs it, her trembling hands flinch from the impact of the cold, dropping it back on the bed. Soralina begins t apologise, going to pick it up again when Lucian gets to it first, taking it and sitting down on the bed facing her. “Move your hand.”Slowly, the girl removes her hand from her neck, and Lucian presses the pack of ice as gently as possible so as to not startle the girl again. She hisses the first time, but as her burning neck accommodates to the cool of the ice, she calms down, choosing instead to stare at Lucian’s perfect face.The man knows that she is watching him, however he makes no comment on it, letting her do whatever she wants. After a long time, she finally speaks up. “Thank you.”“You already said that.”“No, thank y
Agatha stares out of the window, at the calmness of the country side, feeling things she never felt before. Up until now, small things like this never mattered to her; she never really cared about the littlest of beauty that nature provides. Three years ago, she almost cared for only a month, before returning to that classy bitch that she is.But now, as she stands there inhaling the cool air that sweeps inside the room with a slow hum, she feels like she might just be born yesterday, appreciating the tiniest of details nature can offer one.And this is not because she found someone like Augustus again, no. Louise is far from the person Augustus was that Agatha knows for. It is because of the sudden life changing discovery that she made that has her looking at things through a different perspective. Like she is looking everything from someone else eyes.With her hand playing with the anklet around her neck, Agatha stares out of the window, watching a very sweaty Louise and Mario cutti
Soralina stares at herself in her mirror as she ties the scarf around her neck, hiding the red marks that Gustav's fingers had left behind.It's been a week since Agatha went missing, and yet no one has found a single thing about her whereabouts, courtesy to someone Soralina now hates dearly.You seem to be doing a pretty good job at protecting your enemies daughter, don't you think Louise?If I didn't know better, I would say you have had your eyes on her from the start.As the thought crosses her kind, Soralina stops whatever she's doing, her eyebrows knitting together.Or...is it really true? Did you...actually have your eyes on her from the start? Did you play with me this whole time?A snarl twists its way into her face, her eyes burning with anger as she releases a shrill scream before throwing all the contents of her table on the floor, most of the things that are made of glass shattering to pieces.How could you? How could you!? How dare you use me to get to her!? Who do you t
“And then, he suddenly barges into the driveway and I’m like, ‘Louise what the fuck? What are you doing here?’ Then he pulls out you tattered bloody body from the back seat and I almost get a heart attack.” Mario narrates the story, which only makes Agatha chuckle as she chews on her pan cake, sitting on a stool on the island.Louise walks in on them, having finished showering after coming from his short run before he sits down beside Agatha. To her shock, he leans forward and kisses the top of her hairs, startling her at the contact. When she looks at him, he pretends like nothing is amiss and instead joins in on Mario’s conversation.“Stop exaggerating Mario. You didn’t look that surprised. You have seen your fair share of blood.” Agatha doesn’t even want to know what he means by that.Mario frowns, dropping the spatula down on the island. “You did not have to say that in front of her, I was trying to keep a good image.”“And it worked, really.” Agatha replies with a smile, which ma
Agatha stares at the sleeping figure of Theo on the bed, no real emotions crossing her face. Unlike the hospital room that she received when she came in the Scorpio Venom Society, all plain white, Theo’s is different. There’s a whole forest painted in the walls with baby elephant’s and giraffes and monkeys and every other forest animal, smiling and playing within themselves. Her bed is just the same, and so is her nightgown. And as Agatha sits there staring at her daughter, she feels like she is staring at a younger version of herself. You look so much like me, and yet, when you open your eyes, you look like that damned man. Like your father. Thinking to herself, she doesn’t even realize when her hand moves to her neck as she grabs the anklet, playing with it in between her fingers. And just as she does that, she remembers a certain someone, feeling like it was only yesterday that she met him and kissed him in his soft lips as he held her in his arms and comforted her. Pulling the a
Silence prevailed all over the room as Agatha finished her story, stalking around the room and looking at all of Louise’s belongings with a blank face. but just because she is blank does not mean the others are, especially not Soralina.“After that, Lucian and I stayed in the America, watching your every moves, making sure you were always protected and out of trouble. Lucian made sure to check on you while I…I looked after my daughter.” Agatha concludes, stopping right in front of Louise’s desk as she notices something she hasn’t seen for six years, something that was stolen from her by Louise.Soralina stares down at her legs while Theo makes her way to her, clutching Soralina’s hand. “So…Xavier is…alive?”Agatha turns to look at her sister, slowly nodding her head as she takes the anklet in her hands, the one Louise stole from her when he drugged her. “He is very much alive. In fact, he is even listening to us right now.”Louise head whips towards Agatha, making her point her ears.
Xavier...is alive?How...How is this possible?Xavier was dead. He died as a baby. He..."No." Agatha breathed out, shaking her head continuously. "You are not Xavier. Xavier is dead. He died at infancy even before I was born. Don’t you fucking lie to me!"The anger and hatred in Agatha's voice had Xavier tilting his head sideways in amusement. "And who told you that little sister?"Silence."Gustav?"Yeah. But I won't tell you that.Xavier chuckled to himself, shaking his head. "Since when did you believe anything Gustav ever said? So far, everything he told you turned out to be a lie. What made you still believe in it?""I...I..." Agatha stammered, wanting to doubt Xavier’s words and tell him he was trying to manipulate her but she didn’t. Because deep down she knew he was right. Gustav lied about everything; he could have lied about this too."No he didn't. This was the only time he was actually honest with you."What?Agatha's head whipped to the man with a glare set in her face,
Flashback:Agatha lied there with her back pressed to the rock hard earth, her heart beat slowly disappearing but her pulse remained. She drifted from in and out of consciousness, not knowing how long she was there and when death would come to her and take her away already.She knew Soralina had been there and was already gone, hopefully to take care of Theo. But what she didn’t understand was, why she was still alive.Just as she believed she was taking her final breath with her beating finally ceasing, she heard the muffled voices of men from a distance, or more like they were bear her, she just couldn't sense dye to her body shutting down."She's here. Boss! We found her! She's here. You don't have to come up." Someone was whisper yelling like as if scared to be heard.Agatha's head moved to the side, wanting to know what was going on around her until the face of a man zoomed in on her, eye brows knitted together in worry."Is she even alive?" Another said, joining his companion. T
Soralina stares at her sister, her eyes turning wide with shock and horror at the sight of the girl she thought was dead for the last five years. Her lips remain parted in surprise, voice giving up on her while Agatha finally turns her attention away from Louise, before they feel on Soralina. Green eyes colliding with blue.So…you are the greed eyed hooded figure? The two of you?You were the ones saving me this whole time? Watching over me?Slowly but surely, Agatha’s lips morph into a smile as she walks towards the girl, looking down at her. “Hello sister.”“A-A-Agatha?” Soralina whispers, her hands rising up as she gently touches her sister’s cheeks as if checking to see whether she is real or not. Agatha smiles sincerely, her own eyes getting glassy as she holds onto Soralina’s hands letting it reach her cheeks. “Yes, me.”Soralina huffs, disbelief never leaving her as the first of her tears start to drop, making Agatha tear up as well. “It’s…you?”“No one else but your twin, Lina
USA, 2022,Shock and horror registers in Louise's face as his jaw drops down, his eyes staring at anything but Soralina and the little girl beside him.He staggers backwards, his breathing getting laboured as he takes in Soralina's story. "No. No you are lying. This is not possible. Agatha and I never...We never...""Never what Louise?" Soralina asks in a deadbeat voice, already done wiping her tears after remincing her past life. "Never made love to Agatha?""I...""Of course you didn't. You don't do things nicely." Soralina replies with bitterness in her voice as her eyes get darker. "What you did, was rape her."Louise's head shoots up in light speed, finally understanding what Soralina means. He remembers that time, the time he drugged Agatha and made love to her. He remembers it because that was the only time he ever got to do it, and it remained memorable.But what he didn't know, is that she was pregnant after that."Of course you didn't know it. Because Agatha isn't crazy to t
Present day:Words failed Soralina as she sat there with Agatha's limp body in her arms, feeling numb all over. It has been only thirty seconds since Agatha passed away, but to Soralina it feels like decades, centuries, as she feels the bond between then being severed, detached, removed.Above her she can hear the echoes of the battle which is soon coming to an end, with one side only alive now to be the victor. And a part of her already knows who it is.Slowly but surely, Soralina gently places Agatha's head down in the hard rock floor, brushing her stray hairs from her face as she sucks in a deep breath, willing herself to move and not start crying again."Goodbye, my other half." Soralina said, feeling her usual excited heart beating now being just a mere thudding in the chest, just like every normal human being. Because the one that held that excitement in her heart, is now gone.Not wasting another second, Soralina tears her eyes from her sister and stands up, knowing another sec
“Here, drink this.” Sister Aria said as she offered Agatha a bottled mango juice, making the girl smile at her. “Thank you. Where is Sister Nina?”“She is getting your reports checked.” Sister Aria replied, taking a seat beside the girl in the waiting room while Agatha nodded. This made Sister Aria turn towards her, tilting her head to get a better look. “You did a great job Agatha. I’m so proud of you.”A tight lipped smile appears in Agatha’s lips as she touches her belly, listening to the soft heartbeat of her daughter. Sucking in a deep breath, she said. “Do you think I can do it? be a mother?”Sister Aria smiled at her sincerely, rubbing the girls back. “Aww my dear, of course you can. What makes you doubt so?”“I have never even spared a glance towards a baby, let alone take care of one.” Agatha replied earnestly before turning to stare at her palms as she said softly. “I kill people Sister Aria. I don’t protect.”The young girls words broke the lady’s heart, wishing to somehow
Three Months Later:With angry steps, Agatha stormed inside Sister Aria’s room, finding the lady with a bunch of more nuns including Sister Nina. One look at her glaring face and the nuns stood up once by one, getting out of the room safe for Sister Nina and Aria.Agatha stormed forward and without waiting to beat around the bush, she got to the point. “When are we going?”“Going where Alexandra darling?” Sister Aria asked, although she had a clear idea of what Agatha was talking about. And judging by the fuming glare in her eyes, she knew Sister Aria knew too. “Don’t play dumb. You know what.”“I’m afraid I don’t.” Sister Aria finally looked up at Agatha with a smile plastered on her face and this only made the young girl even more angry. “Fine! When are we going to the hospital to abort this thing!?”The smile left Sister Aria’s face but Agatha didn’t care the least. “That, is not a thing. It is your child, and you are its mother. Just because we call it an ‘it’, doesn’t make it a t
