Kylie's POV

I woke up to the rustling of something next to me. I didn't open my eyes right away because I felt a pain in my side.

"Ouch!"

My muscles are stiff. Why? Is it because of the cold bedrock? Well, I'm in a desert. I don't have a choice.

I opened my one eye. And the blue sky greeted me. Wow! It's morning! We woke up in the desert.

I grimaced and turned to my side while trying to move my stiff legs and back. The fast asleep Thurstin appeared to me.

I stopped trying to stretch. Whoa! He's sleeping. He's really sleeping. I thought he couldn't sleep because his face didn't look tired and sleepy. I thought he would just sit down and think of a survival plan.

Well I guessed, he's a human being like me. Tired and sleepy.

Thurstin was sleeping peacefully. When he fell asleep in class, you'd think he was sleeping on a soft bed instead of on a rock.

I slowly got up and slipped on my thigh and a black jacket. Jacket belonging to Thurstin. Wow! Did he use his jacket to cover me as a blank

    Thurstin's POVI thought it was just a house. One house, but it turned out, there were three or more behind it. He's not really home if you look closely. It was shabby as you can see with no proper roofs.Plus, it was located out of nowhere so I was pretty suspicious.As Kylie and I approached the house, I was a little nervous that I couldn't figure it out.I got this uneasy feeling lingering inside me, I must be paranoid because of our situation.I can't get Mike's words about the Vuldus out of my head. They were in Sahara, he said. And I'm pretty sure we're in the Sahara. I'm just not sure if Flavia is far or near here. I need a map to be able to know where we are.Kylie and I, we've been walking for miles now. I'm about to feel sorry for the woman. Although his complaints are constant, his walk is also constant. And now that we found a house, I didn't want to tell him that we should just leave and continue walking.The square house 'coz it has a square shape like most Arabic houses

    Thurstin's PoVThe road upward is hard. The terrain is rocky and there are times when we pass between cliffs. The place reminds me of Grand Canyon in USAnd I am tired as hell but I can't stop. I know the Vuldus members are still after us. From the distance there's the roaring sound of engines and gunfire.I was thinking of Norudint. I am hoping that he is okay and that he was not hurt and I hope that he knows that one of them is his son and that he will not kill his own father. Although I know that when you are a member of such a group, you prioritize the group over your family.Thank you"Thurstin..." I heard Kylie say behind me."Hmmm?""Can we rest a bit? Can we stop?" he said. The woman's voice was tinged with fatigue."Wait..." I said.I looked around and looked for a place to hide."There..." I saw on the left side a small path between two large rocks.I turned the motorcycle there. The road is downhill and still rocky.We ran a few more meters before I saw what seemed to be a

    Kylie's POVMy heart pounds like a bitch in heat. I also broke out in a cold sweat. If it wasn't forbidden to sign the cross while wearing Muslim clothes, I might have done it because I was so nervous."Hey!" the man called again on the box but didn't speak.The Egyptian man threw me a stare. I couldn't read his expression much but I knew he was suddenly scared too.Good heavens! It might report me! It's gone!He could easily talk. I mean, we're not friends. He doesn't know me.I looked at the man with pleading eyes. I pray that he is kind and will help me.I saw the man swallow. Kind of struggling but he looked at the men behind me again."What woman? I haven't seen any stranger in here since morning. You people should know how my business is doing bad because of you!" said the hero bravely.Thank God, they speak English. Ah yes, he's a Jew and not a Muslim who knows Arabic.I heard the man behind me snorted. "If not for Raja, I'll blast this stupid store of yours!"I slowly walked t

    Thurstin's POVMy eyes are becoming blurry as I stared at the sky filled with spectacular lights of stars, nebulas, and constellations. What a breathtaking view but somehow it is hard to appreciate amidst our desperate situation.I took a deep breath.I could hear the old man in front of the truck singing a Spanish song. His wife reprimands him but the man does not give up. It still continues to sing.I looked up at the woman sleeping on my lap and I took a deeper breath.Kylie looked as if she was uncomfortable in her position. Judging by her posture, no doubt she is. Don't worry, Kylie. We're almost there.'I stopped jumping, it seemed like something heavy was hitting my chest as I stared at the woman. I don't understand my feelings but it's hard for me to see Kylie's hardship. I know he is struggling. Although his complaining has decreased, I know that he is now more difficult than in the past few days.It was her first time experiencing things like this and somehow I felt a pang o

    Thurstin's POV"If you're okay, we can talk to the person they say can capture your documents. Can you stand up now?"Of course, Thurstin! You dummy! He was standing earlier, right? It's nice to kiss my cheek."I guessed so. Alright, I'll just get dressed," said Kylie.I took my camera and hung it around my neck before I walked out of the room. "Wait for you outside."I just stood in the hallway while waiting for the woman. Looking at the photos I took at Cole and Bennet's wedding.I smiled. What is that dinosaur doing now? I bet he already knows what happened. Or possibly Bennet kept it a secret from her because of the woman's delicate condition.Huh! No matter what, Cole is still missed.Cole and I, we've been through lots of rough. Our dangerous missions are not boring because of him. If Cole was with me right now, we might just be laughing. And he says the Vuldus look like monkeys.Thank you! Thurstin, what are you thinking? Why are you thinking about Cole? She's happy now. And sh

    Thurstin's POV"Yeah, I'm sure... It was cole" he answered after a few seconds. I don't know but Kylie suddenly looked away. "She introduced herself. Also, naturally, she was at Uncle Emenrad's Mansion. She's pregnant, right? And she needs a companion so it's a given that the in-laws are looking after her."I nodded but didn't speak. Of course, Cole is better off with his in-laws and parents. His wife is even busier with work."I told her that I am with you and that we are here in Laayoune before the line was cut. I'm hoping with that piece of information she'll be able to help us. I really wanna go home," Kylie said sadly.I wanted to talk and console him but I couldn't. We are in the same situation. She was as helpless as I am. I just gasped.We walked for a long time before we got back to Old Town. I tried to identify which part of the hotel we were staying in but I was still confused.When I saw the familiar lane leading to the Old Town Market I turned to Kylie. "You want to go to

    Thurstin and Maximilien have a long conversation inside. And I got bored so I stood up and decided to get out of the garage. It looked like they were going to talk for a long time so I decided to walk around and look around.Thurstin said that this place is the central commercial district of Old Town. I noticed that because of the various goods on the side of the road.It's like tiangge in the Philippines, only there are fewer sellers and buyers. There are clothes, usually Muslim clothes. Since the seller is also a Muslim.On the right side of the road are the Muslims. They sell a lot of household items, from cookware, and ladles, there are carved stones that I don't know what they are for. Even the carpets, vases, and umbrellas that they suspiciously sell when it doesn't rain in the Sahara.It was fun to watch the happy trade. The shouts of the buyers and salesmen kept coming. Maybe they haggle over the price.On the left side of the road were the Spanish merchants. They also sell so

    Kylie's POVMy throat hurts, my back aches and my stomach started to growl. I opened my eyes, light suddenly blinded me. I raised my hand to block the light coming from somewhere. After adjusting my vision from the blinding light I looked at where I was.I was shocked to see that I was inside a room. Even though it's not big, you can't say it's small either.Where am I? What is this place?My brain is confused. I kept on thinking about what happened last night. I thought I was in Verona. It's like I was just talking to Aunt Vane last night. How come, I'm here? How come I'm in this unfamiliar bed? Why am I lying here? Am I in Spain already?My head throbbed so hard that I caught it suddenly. I feel like my head's gone burst. Aaaagh! What the hell?! I just felt this headache again. I reached for the pillow and covered it over my face. Block the light! Block the light, Kylie!I closed my eyes tightly and let the pain in my head pass. I think I didn't move for about ten minutes. I just fe

    "I'll try... what..."Bennet stepped closer to him with one eyebrow raised."Which?""What... I'm going to try scuba diving in the Bermuda Triangle after I give birth to find out if the rumor that the Lost City of Atlantis is there is true!" I answered breathlessly.It was as if a question mark suddenly appeared in Bennet's head because of what I said. The next thing I knew, he just put his arms around me before saying... "You're really hungry! Whatever you're saying! You should be ashamed of Mommy. She might think, I'm marrying a crazy person."Mistress Vanessa was laughing heartily. He only laughed loudly as if he was being held back but his shoulders were shaking. The lady was very happy because she knew that I was planning to do something for her daughter."One more thing, Atlantis was not even in the Atlantic Ocean," Zehel added, pulling me out of the room. "Mom, I'll feed it first," he said goodbye to Mistress Vanessa who just nodded while laughing."How can you tell?" I will as

    Cole's PoVMy stomach churned. It's almost lunchtime. I left the Hospital in the morning but it took me midday on the way because of debating with myself.Part of me didn't want to go. Saying I should let Bennet do what he wants. I don't want to go away anymore, it's tiring to always run away.So, what happened was that I just went back and forth all over the place with no plan. I can't call Thurstin, he's sure to yell at me. Especially Nicky, he definitely wouldn't want me to go away.Urgh.I can't come up with the best plan so I decided to stay at Mcdonald's and eat. Really hungry. Especially now, I have a double gut. If I'm hungry, my child is more hungry.My wound is aching. It seems like a bad decision to leave the Hospital without my wound healing.I was eating a burger when I saw some figures standing in front of Mcdonald's. They looked familiar, so familiar I think...Wait!Is that the MIB? My bodyguards in California then?! What are they doing here?The MIB looks out of place

    We looked up when the sliding door opened and a Doctor came out who removed his facemask when he saw us.Bennet and Mistress Vanessa approached the Doctor while I remained in my seat. I could hear them."Doctor, how is she?" Bennet asked breathlessly. "And the baby?"Mistress Vanessa quickly turned to Bennet, her eyes wide. But the son ignored him.The Doctor sighed and... smiled."She's safe now," answered the Doctor. "Wife can handle it.""And my baby?""Your baby is stronger. He didn't leave his mother. Despite the trauma and shock, the baby remained strong. He wants to live. Congratulations, Sir."I stood up when I saw that Bennet was about to fall. I took his arm and held him. Bennet's facial expression looked like a thorn had been pulled out. He keeps on uttering 'Thank God!'"The patient will be moved to the private room so we will just wait there," said the Doctor."What about Nicky? The other twin?" I will ask."I'm okay," suddenly said a new voice.Nicky arrives. The real Ni

    Cole's POV"Why are you a male partner? You're just a boy! My legs are shaking waiting for you. I almost went inside and got on the plane!!" I shouted immediately when Thurstin, who had just gotten out of the taxi, appeared to me.He frowned when he heard me. Pulling his luggage, he came to me."Who's to blame?! After you ordered me to find you a mangang buffalo even though it's not in season, you're just going to yell at me that I'm late?!" he said with a frown as he reached for the bag with raw mangoes.Oh crap! I automatically salivated.I took the bag and immediately sat on a nearby bench. Then I poured the mango.We are here now at NAIA Terminal 1. An hour from now is our flight to London. JM and I were together, but during the stop over in Dubai, he would get off, because his boss's office is there. Yes, Thurstin and I must be working on the same company but we have different bosses."Are you pregnant?"I was stunned by Thurstin's question. My eyes also widened when I turned to

    Fuji POVI vowed gently when Attorney Ben Carlos bid goodbye and walked out the door. He's an efficient man, I only told him to dig something about the "signature" and he dug more than that. He also researched about Cole.We he he.I closed the door and turned to the man who must have been stoned from sitting.Bennet's expressions are similar from those in horror movies. He was pale and looked like he was being chased by zombies."You okay, Bennet?" I asked as I approached.Bennet looked at me but in a way that he didn't seem to see me."My marriage was invalid. Null and void, Fuji," he said as if he couldn't believe it.I sat in the chair opposite Bennet and watched him. Feigned ignorance of the scene. lol "How did it happen?""Well..." Bennet frowned. "I married a different woman. Not Nicky! But the name's Cole who took the name Nicky and..."I raised an eyebrow at him. "Didn't I tell you that before?""Huh?" Bennet frowned even more."I told you that the woman who spoke to the Lega

    After I finished eating, I went to the porch and sat on a wooden chair that was there. Shortly after, Nicky followed me and sat next to me before hugging me.She's been busy and clingy these days. He always wants to be hugged and kissed. He also sleeps next to me. It was okay with me, but now I'm starting to get confused I want to stay away from him.I removed his arm that hugged me and then I folded my arms. I saw Nicky frown."I'm your wife, Bennet. Why don't you want to stick to me?""You know why I married you, Nicky. You're well aware of the fact," I answered."Right, Kelly.." she muttered.I didn't speak. A car parked in front of the house caught my attention. I stood up when I saw Mommy's familiar figure getting out of the car."Mom?" I said.I hurriedly ran to the gate and opened it. It was the first time ever that Mom visited me at my house."Bennett!" Mommy smiled when she saw me before hugging me. "It's been ages since you visited me and your Dad so I decided to pay a visit

    "Hey! Bennet! Bennet!"I stopped eating when I heard the old man's voice. When I turned around I saw President Gunford running towards me.Bennet stopped laughing and also looked at the nearby old man. "Yeah?""Bennet, thank god you're still here! The drinking party! We're going there!"I was stunned. Drinking Party? So there are still parties after this?"Sorry, Nicky dear, only for boys," the old man turned to me.oh, Only men? Just them?"We won the event, so you don't have to worry. You have a prize," the old man added, patting me on the shoulder.My eyes widened. "We won?! Really?!""Yeah!""What's the prize? Is it a house and a lot? Million pesos? What?""Crazy," Bennet interjected.I frowned at the man. "Why? Bad dreams?"He didn't speak.President Gunford laughed. "Silly. Nothing like that. It's my gift to you for being a cute partner!"Wow. I'm shy. They say it's cute. Oh hey.I see that Bennet seems relieved by the situation. His eyes roll around and his eyebrows rise and fa

    President Gunford's aura was different. He looks happy. The old man was wearing a simple polo shirt, black pants, and rubber shoes. And he has a cute scarf on his head like Benedict.He pulled me until we reached the tent where I saw Bennet earlier."Here! Here!" that old man "I want you to meet someone!"huh?"Ms. Pola!" greeted President Gunford to a woman holding a board."President!""Here! Meet Mrs. Leofwin! She's the one I told you who suggested this event to happen!" said the old man smiling."Really?!" that girl called Ms. Pola. "Nice to meet you! I'm Pola, head organizer of Manila Outbreak."I was relieved. He was the organizer of the Manila Outbreak?! The famous Zombie Running Game back then."Wow!" I said. "That's you guys!""Yeah. And I was also surprised that the head of the Gunford Foundation called us to organize something like this for them. Turns out, it was your suggestion. Thank you so much!"I smiled. "It was nothing.

    Cole POVI put a glass of water in front of Nicky. "Stop crying, drink this," I said.Nicky wiped away a tear before pouring water into the glass.Nicky's face is all red because of crying. Maybe he was shocked to learn that Bennet only married me (her) because of arrogance."I... I... I have no idea that Bennet could do that! Well, I know that he loved Kelly all his life..."Ouch."... but did that just for revenge? And here I thought he loved me when we were together!" Bennet snapped.I know Nicky and Bennet's relationship was not that long. In fact, it only took months. Based on the e-mail my twin used to have with me, Bennet ended it up because he said it's not working, their relationship is as cold as ice. Is Nicky that numb to fool himself and say that Bennet loved him? Rubbish.Or maybe it was Bennet's fault. Bennet made my twin feel loved then dumped her. A cruel man he was.Thank you!
