“What time is it?”

Holding her phone, Kianna noticed how it was drained. Not have enough battery to even turn on its screen.

‘Charger…’

Looking around, there she noticed that she was in the room just beside her office. The very room Drake and her were using after that incident happened.

‘It would be good if you can just stay here after your work. I can also move here since I still need to rest. We can't travel back and forth to our house every time you have a meeting’

‘But how about you… you really sure…’

‘Kianna, yes. Of course… as long as I am with you. I will be fine’

Closing her eyes she could hear the very words that Drake told her before. Holding her phone, she found herself staring in the air as she let her mind wander. Reminiscing those memories she thought would last forever.

“Why… why did this have to end like this?”

She murmured, laughing as she wiped the tears that slipped down her cheeks.

‘You told me I was enough… but why should there be… anyone else… than me?’

    When you love, you trust that person. When you love, you believe in them no matter how senseless it could be. Because a love with no trust is not love at all. Love means that even if it may seem impossible, you have to trust them. Because the foundation of a strong relationship is trust. There should be no doubts. Because doubts is the root of all the problems. When you have doubts, you don’t trust your partner. And when you don’t trust your partner… all problems and quarrels may occur. But does that mean you have to be blinded by the trust you have? Isn’t it but an idiot’s action to take? Doesn’t it just make all the people who love stupid then? So… is truly alright to just trust and believe in what you think of? But what would you do? What would you do if… all the evidence says those things you don’t want to believe to? What if, no matter how much trust you put into it, traces of things that make you doubt keep coming? Would you still believe it? Would you still trust him? or….

    Washing the plates they eat at, Drake still can’t help but let his mind wander. “You had a frown on your face, why so?” Drake can see Kianna looking at him while making such a cute face. “I am?” he replied with a smile he always had with him. “Yes. Is… is there something bothering you?” “Nothing… I just remember the first time I gave you a bouquet of flowers. We are at the beach that time too. But I can’t find any flower here so… I was a bit down” Drake then utters as he wipes the plate to dry it. “Now that you mention that… I do remember. I was so happy that time…” Looking at her, Drake keeps his lips smiling. “I was so happy that time too” ‘Kianna… how can you forget it? The first time I gave you flowers… the first time I did that… we weren’t on the beach… it was your graduation… don’t you remember?’ It has been days since they arrived in that place. But for some reason, Drake can tell how Kianna is acting strange. How she does things she never did before. How she would no l

    “I am not really convinced about this” Letting out a deep sigh, Serena was opposed to Seki’s whim. She hated Drake for doing this to Kianna. For hurting her and ruining their trust. He is someone they believe with all their heart. that is why… the betrayal he did… it wasn’t just Kianna who was hurt but also them. He was their friend. And to think that he would do that… “There is nothing else to do than that. and I won’t sit my ass up here knowing those bitches are sitting pretty” Seki mumbled in annoyance as they were in Kianna’s room. Preparing things she would bring with her. “I am not going there to hurt anyone. I will just go there to bring Drake back” Eyes rolling, Seki can’t believe in what Kianna is saying. But she knew her friend too well. She may be acting like that but her hands are inching too. She is the type of person who is kind but when you pissed her off to such an extent, don’t you dare believe you can get out of this safe. For when she has the powers to do so,

    “How are the things doing?” The plan was to let Jena come with Seki and Kianna but things did not turn out the way it should. Shaun was now flying the airplane when he heard the words from Jena. She is the one guarding Mr. Sebas back in the hospital. Following the tracks that Shaun set up, Kianna and Seki are both in the passenger seat. About to head to land in the Ohneo. [Things are going according to plan. No suspicious movements can be seen so far] “Good, and that guy?” [He is still under monitoring. But there are no special movements to be seen] “Contact me if anything happens” [Yes] Thanks to the connections that Shaun had, he was able to switch roles with the supposed to be co pilot. With a smirk on his face, the one sitting beside him didn’t know his friend would ask something like this. “You are going too far for your lover, don’t you?” There was a small smile escaping his lips as he remembered the reasons why he was doing that. “Yeah, I want her to see how cool I am

    [The number you have dialed is either unintended or out of coverage area, please try your call later] Dialing through the house telephone, Drake wasn’t surprised that he couldn’t contact Kianna. Her phone wasn’t in the house. All the clues he got say how Kianna that was with him isn’t the real one. Even some of the places in the room had some weird devices. It seems like, she has no intention of letting Drake leave that place. Crushing those devices into pieces, he was aware that the person she caught in no simple one. “What should I do? What have I done?” Looking at the person cuffed in the side of the room, the whole house was in a mess. After all, he had searched the whole place the moment he saw something strange in her things. But instead of worrying about himself, what his thought was filled with were questions. Questions about the safety of the person he loves the most. ‘Since when… how long have…’ Brushing his hair, just more than this and he would have really lost his

    The door bangs open as Shaun smashes it with his feet. Everyone was worried. But more than them, they are a bit frightened. For it was the first time they saw Kianna snapped out like that. She was terrifying. So different from what she used to. As if the gentle her can no longer be seen… Can love truly make people be like this? “Kianna wait!” Not listening to what Seki was saying, Kianna rushed inside, shouting the name of the one she loved. “Drake?? Drake!! Drake?! Where the hell are you… Drake!” “Kianna! Don’t rush! Hey!” Eyes wandering in the place, she can see that everywhere is a mess. She can see how furniture is turned upside down. As if it was massacred by a thief. “Drake…” Her eyes keep on looking to where Drake might be. But with her almost losing her mind as soon as she saw the figure of a guy on the sofa, staring at the sofa, she knew right away who it was. She is certain. Because more than anyone else, only she knew Drake that much. “You…” There was a relief in

    “What about that girl?” Bowing his head, the attendant then discussed what happened to his findings. “Bea Houson stayed in the moonlight’s palace. She did not leave his workplace ever since” Nodding his head, the man seems to be satisfied with what he just heard. Indeed, one can tell that seems to be the case. After all, judging by the smile he had on his face… it is what it says. Drinking the wine as he plays with the cup with his fingertips, he can’t help but be in a good mood. “Who would have thought that she is that smart? Maybe she got her wits through her mother. She is really good at hiding” A smirk escaped his lips. But as soon as a certain someone pops his mind… his face turns sour. “Yeah, right. After all, that bastard isn’t any bit worthy to be called a genius. That fool…” Acting as if he did not hear anything, the attendant then waited for the signal and further instructions from the man. “Well then, all I need is the files to be sent here right away.

    “How is Drake doing?” Looking at Ysekiel, I can't help but feel like… I have failed once again. I can’t help but think that… it was my fault. The accident and this… It was me who was the reason why everything was turning this way. I should have just stayed silent. I should have just… Shaking my head, what am I even thinking? Nothing will change if I keep doing what I was doing before. I was just keeping my mouth shut but it was them who dared do this to me. I… I hate this. I really do… now it is not just me but even Drake… Why… I just want to live happily with him… with the man I love the most… A pat on my back brings me back to my senses. “Kianna, don’t worry much. He is doing fine. The doctor said that he would be waking up after a good rest. Luckily… no physical injury was there. But… about that medicine… I think they have to check to it much deeper” Nodding my head… I was already informed about that matter. Of course… the reason why Drake was acting strange was all because

    “Congratulations”I look at Francis he hand me an envelope.“Thank you”Looking at it, I look at Drake. Somehow, it surprises me how he looks normal. Well... he did know my past with Francis but I am glad that he have trust in me.“Thank you for coming to our wedding. They said it was thanks to you that Lhanoir agreed in playing the piano for our us. You have my deepest thanks.”The exchange greetings and it just occurs me what they are talking about. Now that I remember it, that sound of the piano, that kind of playing... it was out of ordinary. Who would have thought it was Lhanoir? I admired her when I was young...Now that I think about it... I think Drake told me something about the pianist for our wedding... but I was so sleepy that I didn’t really understand what he was talking about.“You don’t have to thank me. It just happened that I have an acquaintance who is close to her”Blinking my eyes, I look back at Drake and Francis. Slightly giggling, I didn’t think that there would

    Right in front of me, I could see far away the figure of Drake standing at the end of the aisle.If I could, I would run to where he is... but that would be funny. How can a slow walk of the bride be a bride running to her groom?That was quite cute but... I can’t help but giggle with what I was thinking.Still, it helps me calm down as I took my step walking closer and closer to where he is.The sound of the piano was so wonderful that I even wonder where that familiar playing was from. But right now, I don’t find the urgency to find out the answer for that.For my mind was filled with nothing but hopes that the carpet I was walking on would bring me quicker to where Drake was.Somehow, Drake’s eyes was locked on mine, that even after I stopped my walk, he didn’t leave his gaze off me.A hand then offered his hands to me. It was grandpa.Dad is not here so grandpa offered to be the one to walk me down the aisle. And I could wish nothing else but this.“You look much more beautiful to

    The feeling of losing something important.... the feeling of not being able to do anything for it...I can’t help but feel useless...Those things that I have, I am grateful. But to those things that I let go...I feel like, I am an asshole...Did I really make the right choice?Kianna...She’s been with me ever since. I truly care for her but... I thought... casting her away would be the right choice for her to forget her feelings for me.But... every time... I wonder if I have made the right choice...She was there when I needed her but when she needed me... I cast her away. I push her and avoid her...“Are you finally awake?”“Hmm...”“What’s the matter?”I look at myself in the mirror. Indeed, I also want to ask that to myself. What is the matter with me?“Kieffer, are you all right? Do you want to go to the hospital?”Slightly laughing, I shook my head.“No need Mom, I am fine”No, I am not. I have so many troubles in my head that I want to clear up. It is not like I could say th

    There are things we might forget but that doesn’t mean they are no longer important to us.There are times we feel like we know someone when we don’t really even have a bit of conversation with them. Just the feeling of being close to that person for some reason. As if the moment you talk with them, what you can find is nothing but comfort... as if you have known them for so long...There are times that we feel guilty about something we don’t even know. As if we feel so sorry for any trouble we have caused. But when we asked ourselves what that was about... no words came out of our mouths.Weird... yet at the same time, we can’t even say it wasn’t true. For all of it was real and valid.We feel sad for a sudden moment in our lives. And funnily... it is for no reason at all... or maybe there really is a reason behind it but we just don’t really remember. We just don’t really know what the reason behind those tears was...Our minds are blocked from remembering what it really was. As if

    They said that dreams are something that we shouldn’t remember. For it was designed to be forgotten once we are awake.But in some rare cases, dreams... make us remember them. To give us a message... to grant us some warnings... realization of something that only our subconscious mind can comprehend.‘I should have known that soul is a disaster’‘Her fragments are scattered... now the timelines are in chaos’‘How can a mere soul do that...’‘... She is not just a mere soul...’‘She got that blessing... even some of the angels bound in the land of mortals helped her...’‘But what would you do now? You finally got her fragments?’‘Why bother asking? There is only one thing to do. Fixed it the way it should be. Each soul must only have one memory of their life. And these two are rare cases that are starting to affect the others’My head hurts...As if... something was taken from inside me...The warmth... that I had in my heart seemed to be leaking out.The moment I opened my eyes, it to

    Everything seems to be going with its best flow... with my family, with my career... all of it was in a smooth sail... and who would have thought that... it been months since that incident?Thanks to those memories that I have, I was able to prevent most of the things that might cause a huge problem in this timeline. Weird to say this but most of the scenarios in each life have similarities. Those people around me are the same... and there are just rare cases that their deaths would be different. As if it was their fate... my fate...Still, the fact that not all of them are identical means that changes of the future is still possible. The fact that I can prevent things from happening means that I can change the future I will have either for the better or worst of it.But I do hope that the future will be good to me... To be honest, this life is not just for me alone. It is for me and all of the Kiannas that lived a life before mine.Those things that they weren’t able to do... those w

    In the end, I failed to see the photo he took. But he was so happy, I can tell. Well, I would admit, me too… I feel so happy now that we two were able to have this much fun.“Yes, that would be all for today”I mumbled as I shut close the folder I had in my hand. All the files regarding the situations that happened are now updated. I think we’ve fixed almost all of it... well, maybe aside from some minor things. But it shouldn’t be a trouble at all.Letting out a deep sigh, I can’t help but miss my date with Drake. I wonder what he is doing today...Opening my bag, I pick up my phone but...“Huh? This isn’t my phone...”It was Drake’s...Did I end up picking up his phone before heading out? Now that I think about it, our phones were charging closely with each other...“Maybe I did pick it up by mistake... I should call him- no... I should call my phone that is probably with him right now...”I giggled as I realized how clumsy it was to not realized that I took the wrong phone with me.

    I do have that question for myself as well.Now that the world finally knows I am dead, would it be… right to announce the truth?That is something I am still not sure.And also… What would happen to the company now… I mean… Dad is not around and my brother- No, what I mean is Marco… he is not even my brother…“Kianna…”Patrish mumbles for the first time.“Whatever it might be… please tell us if you plan something big again…”Smiling bitterly, Patrish looks at me.“We are not just your friends, we are a family too. So we were really hurt when we learned about your death. We are hurt more than you can ever think of…”“Patrish…”“I understand what happened but still, we didn’t like what you did. We are happy that you are back but we feel betrayed…”I nod my head. I know that. I already knew it would be like that and I understand that it was but my fault.“I am really sorry… I know that what I did is wrong. Sorry… really”…After that conversation, I never hear Hera’s voice again. She ref

    “Kianna? You are…”“Alive?”Looking at their surprised face, I am not sure of where to start. Should I say hello? Or should I explain things first? I… really don’t know.I can feel my hand turning numb. Joined with my heart that was beating so loud, I couldn’t take it… My head is in a mess. As if I am a device full of things with no storage left. And about to turn weird any time soon.Patrish, Scott, Kyler, Exequiel, and Warren. They all came here to see Hera. And also because of the fact that I send them a message to come here…“Thank you for coming here today…”Patrish could not help but put her hand on her lips. Covering it as she did not remove her eyes from me.“Wait wait wait… I don’t understand… Kianna… is that really you? This is not some kind of a joke, is it? If it is, guys it is not funny at all. Quit it right away!” Exequiel mumbles as he has his hands holding his hair.Still is not sure of what was happening.Still can’t process what the whole situation is all about.“Yes
