101. Thoughts
“Gray!” beckoned Zia Scott; however, Gray didn’t do as much as look back at her.
“Gray!” Zia ran toward her and pulled on her hand until she stopped walking.
Gray looked down at her with half open eyes. “What?”
“What do you mean ‘what’?!” ranted Zia. “Go get Edward, he went to the dumpster because of your stupid excuse!”
Gray shot a glance at the clock on the wall above the TV. “In the middle of the night?” she said as she yawned.
“It’s your fault anyway,” noted Zia.
“You’re the one who messed up in the first place, though,” countered Gray along with another yawn.
“We can’t keep arguing about what’s already happened.” Z
LeemaJust how many mistakes are you two gonna make, huh, Gray and Zia?

With Gray Stewart gone to her bedroom, only Zia and Edward are left standing in the hall. She shot a glance at him who still had bemusement plastered on his face. He then looked at her which utterly surprised her, but it was already too late for her to look away. She took a deep sigh. “Aunt Gray calls me Zee the same way she calls Aunt Zia because she said I look like Zia when she was little so I reminded Gray of her,” she said in a fast-paced manner. Then she looked back without checking his reaction. “Good night, Edward.” She waved her hand above her head and made her way toward Gray’s bedroom. When she entered the bedroom and locked the door behind her, she saw Gray sitting on the side of the bed, staring down at her phone. “You really just left me after you made
Till Time Do Us Part 103. Who Are You
“You lied,” uttered Edward Bartlett as he looked at Zia with repugnance planted in his eyes. The two were separated by an unfamiliar rectangular table, sitting across from each other. They were enclosed in a room full of mirrors as walls. She could see his antagonistic expression from every angle. “B-but,” she stuttered, taken aback by the shocking expression the man she loves had shown her. “I-i…I was j-just—” A slam on the table made her flinch. “Just, what, Zia?” he asked. “You just don’t trust me enough.” He stood up. “Do you?” “N-no,” she denied as she struggled to hop down from her seat with her tiny body. “I-i do, I do trust you.” He slightly walked away from the table and faced the mirror walls and looked at her through her reflection. “Then, why?” He turned to look at her directly. “Why will you not tell me?” Her eyes started to well up. “B-be-becau…se…” “I don’t even know you anymore,” he interrupted as he walked towards the table again. “Just who are you anyway?” The
Till Time Do Us Part 104. What Happened
BANG! BANG! BANG! The children held captive together with Zia Scott had started throwing a fuss to the series of gunfire heard from beyond the tunnel. “You stay here. Guard the kids,” said a man with a strange mohawk hairstyle and went away. “What is happening outside?” thought Zia to herself. “Nooooo! So noisyyyyy! Mommyyyyy!” cried a little boy behind her. “I’m scaaaaared! Dadddddyyyyy!” bawled another one. “Shut the fuck up!” roared the guard seated on his chair with the gun on his hand, resting on his lap. Zia anxiously glanced at him who seemed to have tightened his grip on the gun. She looked behind her. “Everyoneee~” she uttered, beckoning their attention; however, their cries were deafening on top of the ceaseless gunfire outside. She slightly tilted her head in disappointment, then she started to sing. “Row, row, row your boat gently down the stream,” she commenced, but nobody seemed to have heard her. The children were too overwhelmed to even hear anything now aside f

Gray Stewart woke up to the alarm on her phone atop the nightstand that resounded throughout the room. With her eyelids still weighing down her eyes, she groped the furniture for her phone and turned it off with a swipe. Taking the phone into her hand, she turned to the other side of the bed and noticed Zia gone. With her bedroom fully enclosed without any windows, night and day wouldn’t differ at all inside; therefore, it was impossible to ascertain the time. Tapping on the screen of her phone, it lit up. She checked the time; however, her eyes found the unread messages from Sarah on the notifications of her lock screen. And before she could think of anything, her finger tapped on the notification and opened the messaging app. Seeing her inbox, only Sarah’s name was in bold with 8 unread messages. As she tapped on her name, it revealed the messages she had yet to read. And the latest message caught her attention first as it was the longest. ‘I don’t know if you’re blaming yourself
Till Time Do Us Part 106. Officer Gladd
“Justin!” Gray Stewart shifted her eyes to the woman shouting who was standing by the brown door. It was Colleen in a short red silk dress. When Colleen presented herself in her head, the statement that Police officer Gladd released about her rewound itself. “The police car that was bringing Colleen was ambushed resulting in two of our officers severely injured from the attack. We believe it’s the organization’s doing. She might be an important person they couldn’t afford to lose.” “She got away,” whispered Gray to herself, still staring at her ceiling. “And Ronald…” She took a deep sigh. “And Justin.” As she thought of the other two men involved appeared in her head, the flashback resumed itself as if the commercial break was over. When She saw Colleen call Justin for the first time, the name stuck in her head. Then the answer finally came to her. It was the name Colleen said was her brother. “Coco!” shouted the blonde man who Colleen just referred to as Justin. “What took you

“What is that?” uttered Ronald. Gray saw him standing up as well as Colleen. His head turned around, looking for the source of the sound. “Whose phone is that?” The men began tilting their heads and checking their phones. “Not mine,” said one man. “Not mine either,” responded another. “Fuck, fuck, fuck,” thought Gray and abruptly hit the power off button of her phone in panic without looking at the caller. When she peeked back at them, Ronald was still suspicious. She laid flat on the floor. She could feel the beating of her heart rising to her throat. She glanced at the door she entered from. If things go south, that was her only escape plan. From staring unfocused at the ceiling, Gray turned her head toward her phone. “I just remembered you fucking got me in trouble back there,” she said to her phone, and obviously, it couldn’t respond to her so she turned her head back toward the ceiling. “Or maybe it was Edward’s fault.” She closed her eyes and rewound the events herself as i
Till Time Do Us Part 108. The Promise
As Gray Stewart closed her eyes, the little girl Rory appeared in her head. She lifted her right hand over her head and reached out, covering her view of the light bulb on the ceiling. “Rory,” she whispered underneath her breath. “I guess I did fulfill my promise, Abram.” And as the Corbets invited themselves into her head, so did the memories of her meeting the man. This was the time when Gray Stewart abruptly ducked right under where Disgustington was standing. Luckily, since the lights were dimmed, he was unable to notice her. Disgustington, on the other hand, abruptly zipped his zippers up and caught himself. “Fuck!” he yelped. While he was still preoccupied with his own problem, Gray took this opportunity to hide among the machinery, stealthily crawling her way in. She didn’t even bother to check who it was that shouted earlier. Whether the “hey” was directed at her or not, she would find out in a few seconds. Hiding herself behind the machines, she heard approaching steps. “
Till Time Do Us Part 109. Undertaker
“Oh, right,” uttered Gray Stewart as she stared unfocused at the ceiling of her bedroom. “That Undertaker-looking dude…” She took a pause as her head attempted to dig up an answer in her memories. “...What happened to him?” And just like that, Undertaker took his part in appearing in her head and issuing a flashback. This was when Gray’s complexion turned pale as her eyes met Fakey McBaldy. Likewise, he was also just as surprised when he saw her. “T-there’s someone here!” he shouted, pointing his trembling hand to her. While he was still under confusion, Gray pulled out her stuck foot so hard, her shoe fell off. With one less shoe, she squeezed her body out of the set of tanks and sprinted on the side aisle. She had only one way to go; the door. As she sprinted without looking back, she could hear clamoring and the breaking of bottles, as well as vehement footsteps. “Catch her! Shoot! Faster!” were the words she could pick up in the middle of escaping. Almost reaching the knob of
