Threads of Betrayal 11. My Alarm
Alarm sucks And I mean they suck. Why? Because they wake you up, especially when you don't want to be woken up. The loud, incessant wail of my alarm pierced through the silence, jolting me awake. The shrill sound echoed off the walls, sending waves of panic throughout my body. Its urgency demanded attention, sounding like a warning of impending danger. The blaring noise continued relentlessly, like a persistent presence that refused to be ignored. Its piercing intensity would not rest until its purpose was fulfilled. I groaned, blindly at my bedside table, trying to locate my stupid alarm clock, so I could throw it into the burning pits of Hell. Turns out Ary decided to buy me an Alarm since I'm not a morning person and I've been going late to work that day so to avoid getting fired she bought me an alarm. Even though the alarm is old because she couldn't afford a new one of course... Its tick-tock sound was rhythmic, almost soothing, as it kept time with the steady

The morning activity in Ember is always infused with an air of anticipation and preparation as the staff gears up for a busy day of serving patrons. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee and sizzling bacon fills the air, lending a warm and inviting ambience. The staff, dressed in crisp uniforms, move around with a sense of purpose, readying tables, countertops, and chairs for customers. Chefs bustle in the kitchen, preparing ingredients for the day's menu items, and ensuring that everything is in place for a successful service. The sound of clinking cutlery and low murmurs of conversation from early diners add to the bustle and energy of the morning. I made my way to the closet to change into my work outfit. Kyle is already at the reception managing the wait list and directing guests to their tables. Using that as an excuse I walk towards the kitchen section to see how Kira is doing. As I opened the door, I dived into an aroma of delicious dishes mingling together, tantalizing my senses a

Kyle is a short guy with blonde hair with a petite figure that exudes a youthful energy and charm. His hair is a bright blonde shade, catching the light and adding a sun-kissed glow to his overall appearance. Though his height may be on the shorter side, he makes up for it with a confident and easy-going demeanor. His eyes, which are a piercing shade of brown, sparkle with warmth and cheerfulness. He has a well-groomed appearance, with a clean-shaven face and styled hair that frames his face in a flattering way. Despite his small stature, he moves with fluid grace and confidence, as if he is comfortable in his skin and unafraid to command attention when he enters a room. He has been my friend ever since I resumed. Kyle and Kira are the first friends I made in Ember. Kira was the one who approached me first when I was lost in the restaurant, I couldn't figure out what to do since I was new to the place, the boss only dropped me at the restaurant and told me that was where I would be wo

Sighing, I stopped a bus. I could take the bus because I'm way too exhausted to walk home and it's getting late already. I didn't wanna risk anything right now... I'm not even in the mood to do so. I entered the bus and was able to sit at the window side of the bus, so I got to see the views as we moved, and that made me forget all my worries for some minutes before reality hit me again when the bus halted at my stop. I paid the driver and headed straight home. The key was still under the doormat, which was strange; Ary should be home by now... she's been coming home really late and leaving early for work, which is starting to get weird. She's got some explanations to do when she's back. I'm so waiting for her till she's home this time. I flanged my backpack on the couch and sat down tiredly on the sofa. A few minutes later, I heard knocking on the door. Hoping it would be Ary, I stood up to open the door and see who it was. I opened the door only to be caught off guard. "What are yo

"Early to sleep, early to rise, Kira... but that's not stopping me from playing anyway," I said. I went over to my wardrobe and brought out my mom's Scrabble for us to play. "Oh didn't know you have Scrabble in here" "Yeah, it's some of my mum's stuff I was able to pick before I was chased out." "Oh" "Forget about that, let's play," I said and sat down, folded my legs, and spread out the Scrabble sheet. "Hey Kira" I called out to her "Yes what up," she said as she started playing on the scrabble "That's a 20 for me," I said before I continued talking "Yeah.. so as I was saying..is there anything going on between you and Kyle that you're hiding from me?" "What? Kyle? And me? " "Yeah I just asked what's going on between you and Kyle" "There's absolutely nothing going on between me and Kyle..does it look like something is going on between us?" She said and she played WEREWOLF on Scrabble which earned her a ninety "Well that much I'm losing already..how do you even know how t

"Nope I don't care who he is, it's late, I'm alone so let's just play it safe," I said to myself and I decided to head back home but I saw that he was getting up already I guess he regained his strength again but I noticed he's looking over to my side and looks like he's coming over "Oh my God" I muttered under my breath and turned back, cause if he was following me I better not lead him to my house so I started increasing my walking pace but it looked like he wasn't giving up either and he was about to catch up with me but nah all those training in high school won't go to waste and I started increasing my speed. "Hey wait up" I heard the guy say "Oh you wish" I muttered but kept increasing my pace and he was doing the same too "Oh my God, help me all I wanted was a goddamn night walk not to get myself killed" "Gosh I should have at least taken peanut with me what the hell was I thinking, I just hoped I didn't get lost this time and I couldn't even try to go back home, that's

"Hey, hey, hey, you don't joke with a knife, okay?" He said fear was written all over his face "Err I thought I said it can't kill," I said smirking and lowering the knife a bit "Can you ever take the slightest joke? Huh?" "Well I don't joke when it comes to life," I said taking the knife off his neck completely and we continued walking "I was just kidding, not that you should kill me with that," He said checking his neck to see if there was a cut or something "C'mon you're good I didn't cut you okay," I said smiling "Hmm... I see that" he said giving me a weird look I just nodded my head and smiled a little "That was a joke you know" "Of course I know and that was what I was doing too playing with you," I said smirking "With a knife? That's an expensive one" "Oops looks like someone was scared" "Nice brave work Diana," I said giving myself a heads-up "No, I was not," He said, smiling too...

"Yeah just one sentence" "Well, that's huge, but okay, let's see... I'd say It's been full of various experiences" "Hmm that's nice "full of experiences" I'll take that" "Here we are," I said and showed him the beach "Did you call this place special?" He said "Um yeah" I replied "I've been here countless number of times...it's not special it's just a beach," He said smiling "Oh wow... I thought you said a while back that you don't know what's up again" I asked "Yeah about that. I know about every nook and cranny of Hawthorne, that was just to make you take a stroll with me" he said "So you lied," I said laughing "Hmm not really," He said while I just shook my head " Well, I guess you do know your way around then," I said "So let's see what we have here," I said, looking for how we would enter. "But it's locked how do we get in" He said "Yeah locked but not for me," I said,d chuckled, and went to check out if the fence was still twang "Nice," I said and started c

Threads of Betrayal I met with Dada
The office was huge and well decorated.This office is designed to feel like a home, featuring a blend of comfort and functionality. Soft ambient lighting fills the space, creating a cozy atmosphere. Instead of traditional desks, there are spacious, stylish tables scattered around the room, adorned with laptops and personal touches of decorative items. Comfortable chairs and sofas replace typical office furniture, inviting a more relaxed work environment. The walls are decorated with artwork and shelves hold a mix of professional resources and personal mementos. A small kitchenette and coffee station adds to the homely vibe, making the office a welcoming and unconventional workspace. It looked more like a home than an office. I told William about everything that I found out and how I've lived my life ever since I left Athens and he listened carefully as I spoke.

Threads of Betrayal The truth about my parentage
As I held the pen, signing the transfer papers that relinquished control of my mother's company, my tear-filled eyes betrayed the deep sorrow within. The weight of the decision imposed upon me felt like an unbearable burden, and each stroke of the pen seemed to etch a painful farewell. With tears streaming down her face, each pen stroke felt like a painful acknowledgement of the sacrifices and tireless efforts that had gone into crafting the business. The weight of familial legacy being passed on unwillingly hung heavy in my heart. With so tears rolling gently I signed the papers with a heavy heart"Finally!!!!" Ary said, laughing so hard, snatching the papers from me. "It's all finally mine after all this years" Ary said laughing triumphantly"See that wasn't so hard?" She said looking at the papers with her"Thanks for this" Ary said and pointed the gun to my dad's head"What are you doing I already signed the papers" I said panicking"Yeah Brit what are you doing" My dad also s
