I just stared at Meggay, who was still asleep. It's been a week since she was admitted to the hospital. This is why I didn't want her to be a part of my life—her life will always be in danger because of my enemy, our enemy. She, who knows nothing about the Mafia world, is my constant fear. I couldn’t even protect her then.

"When will you wake up, Meggay?" Phoebe asked with a frown. Phoebe hadn’t been sleeping well because she was worried about Meggay. Seeing the whip and lash marks scattered across her body made me want to throw up. I was used to seeing blood, but Meggay's blood will always haunt me. Seeing her beaten and unconscious, I was so scared.

"I want to introduce you to Caelum! He's nice and always with me, so wake up so I can introduce you to him," Phoebe added, frowning again. It seemed she and Caelum were getting closer, and I was jealous that she had struck gold.

"I'm heading to Devil's Bar," I said, excusing myself. She immediately looked at me and pouted even more.

    I woke up before everyone else to prepare food for Phoebe at the hospital and for the people here. With Meggay gone, it's up to me to clean the apartment and cook their meals. She's only been gone a few days, but I already feel like I'm going crazy. She could do everything with ease!"Saito, wake up," I said while trying to wake him.He eventually got up and went to the bathroom. I went to the kitchen to pack the food into tupperware for everyone. I also grabbed Phoebe’s uniform so she could change when Patricio gets there. Currently, Patricio is the one taking care of Meggay."Eat up, Olivia," I gently told her. She stared blankly at her glass, so I served rice and viand onto her plate. She started eating, and I ate a little as well before changing into my uniform. After I was dressed, I prepared food for Saito since he had just finished his bath. He began eating, and I waited until he was done."I’ll take Saito to school first. You go ahead to the hospital to give Phoebe her uniform

    I scratched my head while watching Kyle. From any angle, Kyle really is handsome. Wait, did he say something...? What!? He says "I love you"?"What did you say?!" I asked in shock, shaking my head as I yelled at him. "You said 'I love you'! Why won't you say it to me now?!" I added, and I saw him laugh briefly and then look away from me.I just continued eating and ignored him. This guy will be the death of me. Damn it, he won't tell me he loves me! I hope you choke, you pest!I was startled when he did choke, so I laughed out loud. He glared at me, which made me laugh even harder because of how angry he looked."Ha! I was thinking to myself that I hope you choke!" I shouted. Almost everyone was looking at us because of my shout. Some were weirded out by what I said and just left. I made a peace sign to them, as a sign of peace of mind."Savannah, we're in school, so lower your voice." He commanded, so I pouted. I sulked and ate grumpily; he's always like this, such a nerd!"I'll kis

    "Wow, you got some dirty person here, Kyle," she said snootily, making me raise my eyebrow. How dare this ugly girl talk about me? "Did you get her at the bar? She looks awful and trashy," she added, and I glared at her.My nostrils flared in anger at her words. As if she doesn't look like trash herself."I don't have makeup on, fuck you!""Your mouth too. Is this the type you like, Kyle? Gosh, yuck," she said, twirling a strand of her hair around her finger."You're just bitter because he doesn't like you," I laughed, making her glare at me, which made me laugh even more."If we're talking about who's beautiful? I bet it's me, duh," she said, flipping her hair. I smirked at her comment but decided to tease her a bit. I took a baby wipe from my bag and wiped it all over her face."There, now we're even. I took off your makeup since I don't have any on," I teased, knowing she didn't look that bad without makeup. "Jannah, is that you?""Gosh, you look awful and trashy. Is this how you d

    I looked around for a place to hide. I glared at Kyle. Does he have another girlfriend? Kyle remained calm, still making the dip for my chips."Kyle, why is the front door of your condo so dirty?!" I heard the voice again before she entered."Ky—" She stopped when she saw me.She was beautiful but probably in her thirties.She blinked several times. I gave an awkward smile.I wish Kyle, or rather the ground, would swallow me whole.Kyle walked over to her and kissed her on the cheek."Mama, this is Savannah," he said, pointing to me. "My girlfriend," he added, so I stood up and approached them."I-I'm Savannah," I said nervously, extending my hand."Savannah, this is my mother, Erly Pangilinan," Kyle said again.I was surprised when she smiled broadly at me."Oh my God. You are so beautiful," she said, then pointed at Kyle. "Don't you dare hurt her, Kyle," she said, making me smile. Kyle smiled too."Thank you," I said, but she looked at me curiously."Why?""Uh, well, hehe. I thought

    Tw: Rape. (Please read at your own risk). "Would you believe me when I said I was a rape victim?" I seem to be deaf and unable to speak, My beer also fell. I can't believe it."Huh?""Will you believe me when I say I was a rape victim?" He laughed heartily and drank again. He looks at my eyes Rape? Raped him?"Of course, you already have in your mind 'how can a man rape you?'" He added. I just got choked up and couldn't speak. He's rape? Oh god..."Mama Erly... She's not my real Mom," he said. Added, I've been swallowed a few times. "No one believed me." His voice weakened and I also saw the pain he was feeling. "No one believed me when I said I was raped." His eyes watered but I still couldn't answer what he said because I still can't believe it. "No one believed me... Not even my real Mother," he said and I saw the tears in his eyes. "The real mother that I thought was with me and would protect me""I was fourteen years old when that happened... My Mother was not there and only

    R-18.It's been a few days since Kyle confessed to me about the rape.He doesn't remember what he said, and thankfully, he doesn't.I'm also looking for evidence that could be used against his father.And in the past few days, Meggay and I have been getting along well. It's good that she accepts us as part of the mafia, and she's also one of the mafia leaders now.She also helped me with Kyle's case, and it's a relief for me to have them.We've gathered some evidence, but I know it's still not enough.I slumped in my chair, staring at the computer screen as I read TJ's report."Do you think, Meggay, we can put Kyle's father in jail?" I asked Meggay, who was sitting in the swivel chair, sipping coffee."Don't worry, we'll eventually gather enough evidence against Kyle's father. I mean, it's fitting for him to be imprisoned for what he did to your boyfriend," she said. She looked even more beautiful now with her black T-shirt.I leaned back in the swivel chair and spun it around."If we

    I blew air forcefully into the wind. I wrinkled my nose because I had just finished taking a bath, and Kyle was blow-drying my hair.I was extremely tired because of what he kept doing repeatedly! I almost passed out because of his fingers! I never thought he would last in multiple rounds! I didn't even prepare myself!"What are you thinking about? Are you tired? Do you want chocolates or chips?" he asked, so I wrinkled my nose."You're asking too many questions. I'm just thinking," I said.I sighed because I was thinking about whether I could find evidence to put Kyle's father in jail."Are you thinking about my case?" I stopped thinking and looked at him. He remembered.Is he going to distance himself from me? I hope he just forgets. Especially now that he knows I'm the leader of the mafia, his enemy."It's already in the past, Savannah. You can't do anything about the case. I can't fight," I heard him sigh loudly. My chest tightens every time I remember how he trembled that night.

    Savannah was really worried about Meggay. But Meggay said, "Stop worrying. I can do it."Their eyes were on the large monitors where we watched what was happening inside the Mask party.I noticed Kyle was there too, but because he was wearing mascara, Olivia and Phoebe couldn't recognize him."Something bad might happen to Meggay," Phoebe said, biting her nails."Tsk. You should trust her," Olivia said annoyed while watching the large monitor.I saw Meggay enter, wearing her elegant red dress that she took.Her mascara had a camera, so we could see what she was looking at. She grabbed a champagne and walked around the venue."Scarlet! You're finally here," I blinked when I saw the person in front of Meggay.She must be a friend of the girl Meggay kidnapped."Of course. How can I forget this party?" Even her voice sounded like Scarlet's. She mimicked her even her movements, so I breathed properly.I swallowed when I saw Kyle going upstairs to the second floor, but I didn't pay attentio

She's so cute!I was the only one who's clapping my hands, it's embarrassing but I would do it for her every time.I really do love her.Lahat ay napatingin sa akin, at pati siya ay tumingin sa akin nang may kahihiyan.

    His eyes were now dry, and he was looking at me with those sincere eyes that made me fall in love with him before.The rain stopped pouring as if it was done screaming. I wiped the tears from my eyes."What happened back then, Caelum?" I asked as I rubbed my eyes."My Mom had an accident that day, so I hurried there, but I didn't mean to leave you clueless. When I saw the missed calls I had, I called you at that time, but there was no response. I was so scared because you weren't answering any calls," he said, giving me a lopsided smile as he ruffled my hair."What about the penthouse?""Ah, that time. I was looking for a new condo to move into, so I brought all my belongings there, and only the one I was selling was left. It was supposed to be a surprise for you because I wanted to live with you," he said sweetly, taking off his coat to put it on my shoulder."What about the marriage?" I asked again, rubbing the back of my head."Ah, it was planned, but I canceled it and told them th

    "Soon, my ass!" I snapped at him and rolled my eyes.He chuckled and smirked afterward, making me want to punch him in the face."I don't want it," I whispered to him, making him stop.I looked outside at the glass wall, seeing the darkness swallowing the light. Outside seemed so peaceful with the small number of people out there.I wanted to inhale the wind again to find peace once more. I looked at him and called the waiter to get the bill, and I paid for it."I hope you enjoyed our dinner," I said as I grabbed my bag to leave the restaurant."Phoebe, wait!" he said, so I looked at him.Luckily, there were few people on the street. He looked at me with a lost face, inhaling a large amount of oxygen as he looked at me.The rain suddenly poured down, making me look at him with a serious face and a small smile."Why are you pretending to be happy? Why are you treating me nicely?" he snapped as he grabbed my arms.I sighed and tried to let go of my hand, but he insisted and held on so t

    "She's my sister, Phoebe, not my lover," Caelum said with a pleading tone. But I didn't bother to look at him again, just leaving him there dumbfounded.I went back to the office once more, trying to shake off everything he said to me. Why was he explaining this to me? I don't even care.I bit my lower lip as I thought, "Is he playing with me again?"I rolled my eyes and submitted the rest of the reports to Meggay. Opening my phone with too many thoughts, I saw a new piece of news. I clicked the link, and the video started playing."We're back with another update on this case. We suspect the family may have had another Daughter, as evidenced by clothes and a picture frame with another child. They are four in total, indicating another child or perhaps one who is old enough to work. We found no fingerprints of other people, and the picture frame with the other child's face is damaged. We suspect this person may be responsible for the entire family's deaths—"My jaw dropped at the news.

    I woke up in the familiar room; I suppose I am in my condo right now. But why am I here? I raised my eyebrows when I saw the sun rising once again.I looked around and saw my friends scattered in my condo. Olivia was sleeping on the couch, Savannah was sleeping on the floor with just one pillow, and Meggay was beside me.They were sleeping peacefully, as if they were just sleeping now. Why are they sleeping here?I rubbed my eyes and looked around. My head was full of questions regarding what happened tonight. I went to the kitchen to drink some milk and started making breakfast for them.I cooked bacon because Savannah loves it, fried rice with egg because Olivia loves it, and I also made tuna mayonnaise with egg and put it in a sandwich because Meggay loves it.I made coffee too because they love it."Oh, you're already awake," I heard Meggay's voice as I heard the sound of a chair at the counter. I smiled at her and placed the sandwich in front of her."Good morning, Meggay," I gre

    Trigger warning. (This chapter might trigger you, so stop if you need to.)I covered my mouth as panic took over my whole body. Meggay stopped me from killing that woman, waking me up from the darkness she had shown me.I squeezed my eyes shut and opened them again. I breathed deeply to calm myself."Meggay, I already took care of the DNA that led to her bones," TJ said, showing her a plastic container."How long until you find out who the person is?" Meggay asked coldly. TJ paused, thinking about how long it would take."Maybe tonight I can do it. I'm sure you'll still be at headquarters later," TJ said, and Meggay nodded in response.Meggay leaned closer to me and held my hand, smiling."You did your best out there," she said, giving me a soft smile. I kept looking at her."Your foster Mother is in the interrogation room. I asked Savannah and Olivia to bring Diana and your father along with her," Meggay said, but I couldn’t even respond. I looked at her and held her hand as tightly
