[Vision by Cristine Millenis]
I couldn't be happier for my sister, for all these seven years that have passed, I have followed closely every tear she has shed, and all the effort she has made not to falter in depression again.
I don't know where the lovebirds have gone, but from their joy I guessed that she wouldn't be back in time to do the shopping, so I went ahead and now I'm here, in front of the fifth store to buy the dresses that have to do with my little sister's face, just as well that I know Aya's measurements.
Although we became closer after what our parents did to her, the only programs we did together were visiting the orphanage and drinking hot chocolate on her crying nights. I really like those kids, even more so since they were one of the reasons my sister stood her ground.
Graceful - the sign shines on the billboard, this is my favorite event clothing store. I have been coming here since I can remember, it has been a few months
[Vision of Iuri Stevens] I wake up before Aya, a bad feeling squeezes my chest, but I try to push it away from my thoughts. I watch her soft face and delicate features, her black hair spread out on the pillow in a disheveled way, one of her legs over my waist, and her hand resting on my bare chest. It is impossible not to smile, I finally have in my arms the woman who never left my mind. I am fated to love her, and I won't allow anything to separate us, if she asks me for the world, I'll find a way to do it. She moves, opens her eyes slowly, and then they sparkle with laughter. "Good morning!" her voice is hoarse. "Good morning, little devil." "Were you watching me sleep?" I state smiling, she moves again and lays her head on my arm, "I must have my face all mashed up." "You look very sexy, that's for sure," I speak and rub my boy on her thigh, so she can feel how she leaves me. "Naughty!" she curses and I smile mischievously. "I can't stand it and I laugh at her red face like
[Vision of Aya Millenis] I enter my apartment and find my sister sleeping on the couch, all crooked. I get closer and touch her shoulder, she moves a little and grumbles, but soon wakes up. "I need to find a boyfriend," she says when she opens her eyes and sees me all disheveled. "I recommend it," I smile and sit down on the couch, putting her legs over mine. "You're all smiles, what have you been up to?" I open my mouth to answer, but she jumps in, "I can imagine, I don't need the details." "Yesterday was one of the best days of my life!" "Did the little green bird land on the nest?" "Also, but it's something else that's making me even more joyful." "What?" she inquires curiously. "The orphanage is no longer going to be destroyed" my cheeks hurt from smiling so much. "That's great!" she sits down on the couch, "The children are no longer going to be relocated! That's good news." "Yes, and the best...," I do a bit of suspense and she slaps me on the arm, "Heloysie is still t
[Iuri Stevens' Vision]"Is there a problem?" Hades asks looking at me worriedly. I look to where Aya is and when I lose sight of her, I start to speak:"I need to ask you a favor.""What?" he looks at me suspiciously."Do you have an employee who can fly a jet?" I ask in distress."I have two, why?" he looks me up and down."I need to borrow one," he frowns without understanding, "I have to return urgently and I let my pilot take the afternoon off since I was only going to return at night and he is not answering his cell phone.""But what happened? Your face is pale, man!""Look I'm sorry, I know today is the inauguration, but I can't stay here anymore. I can't really explain what is happening right now near where I live, but there were voices that were shouting very loudly on the call and there were sirens, lots of sirens. I recognized the voice of Leandro who was shouting, it appears, they broke into the orphanage I bought an
[New York, Manhattan, Upper East Side, Zain orphanage -Vision by Iuri Stevens].The road leading to the orphanage has been blocked off, I get out of the car and start running. When I finally arrive, I am disoriented for a few moments, I can see the reporters recording what is happening outside. Several vehicles are surrounding the orphanage and a crowd of people cover my view.- Mr. Stevens, how nice to see you here - I hear Leandro's voice - Where is Aya?- I haven't told her what's going on.- I understand, she couldn't stand a situation like this.- Look there - a random voice shouts.- What happened to her? Is she going to die? She won't stop bleeding - several voices mutter.At the exit door of the orphanage, Luana appears all bruised, she walks with a limp, I lower my vision to her legs and the blood runs thick. May it not be what I think. The policemen run to her, me and Leandro too.- Baby? - he holds Luana's left arm - Oh my God, oh my G
[Iuri Stevens' Vision]- Aaai! - the cry of pain breaks the few seconds of silence after my shot.My shot was accurate, I hit his hand before his finger squeezed the trigger and hit the boy's head, the sound of the gun falling to the ground was muffled by the thug's cry of pain, which for me, is almost a song. A shot in the hand is too little for all the evil he has done, especially to Luana.Lucas immediately lets go of the juvenile scoundrel's legs and goes back to where the other children are huddled in the corner of the wall, the sound of Ysie's crying stands out among the others, my heart squeezes. I didn't want the children to see that.The bastard falls to his knees and shakes his shot hand, blood begins to pool on the floor, his face is red from anger and pain. - You fucking bastard! I'll fucking kill you! - he vociferates threatening me.No longer wanting to prolong this scene in front of the children, I move my legs toward the wretch who will
[View from Francisco Millenis - father of Aya Millenis ]"- Live, ten minutes after the impulsive entrance of the newest CEO of the big companies, Stevens Construction. Iuri Stevens has just emerged from inside the orphanage with Aya Millenis, his secretary, in his arms. The police have just reported that she has been shot in the side of the abdomen and has already lost a lot of blood, and has been rushed to the Cooper Clinic hospital. The children at this moment are being supported by the police officers, thank God none of them have serious injuries..."My eyes flutter and I feel my spine freeze, a fearful chill runs through my whole body, I feel as if the air is thinning in my lungs and I end up swallowing without chewing the cookie that my wife prepared for the evening coffee, scratching my throat. The reporter's voice is muted in my ears, all I can hear is the sound of my heart beating hard in my chest. I can only be hallucinating, there's no way that's my little girl...
[ Aya Millenis' Vision ]It is a very strange feeling, to see a movie of your entire life playing out right before your eyes, not to say despairing.I don't have many fond memories, the best part of my life started when I started working at Stevens Construction Company. I made good friends, gained a daughter with a heart of my own and had the chance to get Iuri's forgiveness, and even better, got to be loved the way I always wanted to be, by the man who never gave up on me.I feel like crying, but the tears don't want to come out. My parents' faces appear, I wish I could have gotten along with them before I died. I should have tried harder, after all, it's only in the end that we understand that the error of one doesn't justify the other.My poor girl, my dear little Heloysie, what relieves me is to know that now, besides me, she also has Iuri and I am sure that he will take good care of her.The scenes fade and the darkness consumes me,
[ Aya Millenis' Vision]- Iuri!? - I call him in desperation and feel as if my throat is ripping open. I need to drink water.The scenes of what I did at the orphanage come into my mind causing me a headache, I feel as if a car had run over me twice, and the part that hurts the most is the side of my stomach... Oh yeah, I've been shot... I feel all over my abdomen, but immediately stop when I touch what looks like stitches, this area is hurting.I gather my strength and open my eyes: white, the ceiling is totally white. I move my eyes, I can't see things clearly, everything is blurred, I spend a few seconds trying to focus my sights on a single point.Yes, now I can see things clearly,I try to get up from the hospital bed, but my whole body complains, I look at my arms and see wires connected to them. In my chest there are also wires, I follow them with my gaze that goes to a machine used to monitor my heartbeat. I look to my left and see the much desired w
