Chapter Twenty: Flashback Memories
Last Updated:
2021-07-29 12:08:45What happened in the library has nothing to do with his purpose of following her a while ago. And as far as he remembers, he’s just a good Samaritan who helped her when he saw her suddenly faint in front of him.
“The stalker. Are you the one stalking me at the library?” Cara answered his question frankly. He did not know what she was talking about. The important thing he intends to ask her about got suddenly switched. He wants to blame his slipped tongue for it.
“Right, let’s clarify the misunderstanding. First, I wasn’t the one stalking you at the library and earlier in the corridor. Second, why do you think someone was stalking you like you’re always being paranoid? And last, what really happened to you at the library? Do you have a death threat? I just found you looking frightened and when I came near you, you suddenly fainted.”
She’s not suspecting him. She just needs someone to blame for her little absurdity.
“Maybe because you happened to be there twice when I thought there was someone following at my pace strangely.” She reasoned for him to understand her question.
“I’ve been following my instincts lately, yet it got me wrong twice this time. But it’s not my intention to blame you. Sorry if I offended you.” She continued while gazing at his handsome face. He reminds him of her dream. She’s imagining the face of her dream is him, though she forgot it.
“Just please, forget what happened. I had my personal reason.” She’s thinking to tell him and yet she decided not to tell him about her psychological state.
……..
“Give me all the chocolates and candies, Aurora. I want to give some to my playmate Cara.”
“How about Vince?” The thing he hates the most is when his nanny treats his cousin like he’s a brother of him.
“Don’t give him anything. His teeth will tear apart. And my mom buys that for me, not for him.” He said to her with his bossy and brat-like attitude.
He went outside with excitement to see Cara in their house to give her the bag of chocolates and cookies.
“Cara, I have something for you.” He went straight to her room as her mother told him she was waiting for him to play with her.
“I know what it is.” She knows him very much to think that she already knew the thing he would give her.
She went close to his side, then she thanked him with a kiss on his cheeks. Her sudden gesture stunned him.
Her pretty smile yielded energy to play outside with other children. Because his snobby mind doesn’t wish to play with Cara's muddy playmates.
Remembering the time when Cara was being sweet to him is such a memorable thing for him. He is her best friend back then. But her character suddenly changed when she met his cousin. One reason she dislikes Vince.
Before his parents decide to go back to their old neighborhood, he wished to meet her again. He can see her in school, but he doesn’t have the courage to go near her. He’s not a coward, he’s just making a sweet plan to get close to her again.
But he thinks someone is getting ahead of him, even closer to the finish line. He needs to surpass him. That guy whose name he despises the most. But his personality differs from his cousin's. Still, his presence is more annoying, like he wants to give him some knock. Particularly every chance he could get to cling on to Cara.
He followed her into the cafeteria to see who’s the person she was going to meet. Then he saw her face, looking pathetic and jealous of those cheerleaders around that chick boy.
He went near her and thought to comfort her. But he’s already late when his rival was born with the horse’s feet.
Now that he knew there was another rival, he will surely win against him. Like what happened in the past, he can get rid of him. However, Cara is always avoiding him.
He called her the night after she gave him her number. She talked to him but he felt like she was not interested in chatting with him. Until he brought her a topic about their childhood memories. The memory of him making her smile through the chocolates he gave her.
“Are you telling me, you’re the one giving me chocolates when we were young? Are you sure?” He remembered her voice suddenly becomes interested.
“Yeah, I’m the only one. You thanked me with your kiss. It was a delightful feeling to make you smile.” He answered her with his beaming face as he remembered it.
“Do you remember it?” He asked her, hoping her answer was yes.
“As I told you, I remember nothing about my childhood. But I have a dream about it and I remembered Jean telling me.”
……..
“Cara, this is for you. I brought you a bag of chocolates and cookies. I give you all my share.”
She gets up suddenly as she awakened with the sudden thought in her subconscious mind. Even if it was a quick nap, her mind still dreams.
She dreamed about the boy’s version of Will. But it felt strange that she has this instinct that he wasn’t Will’s boy version.
Speculations brought her mind to call her childhood friend. She asked him to send her a picture of him from his childhood.
“Finally, I found him!” she voiced out as she solved one of her problems. The boy in her dream is Will’s face. Yet, she suddenly remembered the man’s version in her dream, and it wasn’t Will.
Her face went back to an exasperating mood. Her dream was like a hard puzzle she still can’t able to comprehend.
The boy’s version is Will but the man’s version is Vince. Although, the latter has not yet been confirmed. Because she can’t still find the sketch drawing Jean was talking about. And the last dream she had with that man has no clear details of his face.
“Is library your nest?” A sudden male voice stunned her thoughts. She looked perplexed, seeing the man she was just thinking about a while ago. Her dreams that she forgot and her dreams before she lost her consciousness in the library, flashbacks in her mind suddenly.
The thing this man’s face did in her dreams. And the memorable things they did in her dream become the reason her cheeks blushed in front of this man in reality.
“I’m not sleeping. I just got myself a nap. To restart my brain from tiring activities I had lately.” She went back to her senses, explaining herself to this man but her mind really is in chaos right now.

“I have a room, for you to rest. If you don’t mind, I’ll show you.” There he goes again. She’s discerning he would bring her into a dark place again, like last time in the school theater. She also remembers the dream she had with his face. There have some points of his character that look the same as the man’s character she dreamed of. And the feeling that she had in her dream is being the same as this man in reality. “I’m good. Don’t bother.” She answered him, pretending like she had no interest. Getting back to her right senses. She ignores the feeling she had earlier. “Um, if next time you want to sleep in the library, you can hide in that room where no one can bother you.” He insisted, displaying his striking and hypnotizing beam. As she easily swayed by it, discerning to fall on his hands again. “Even you?” She asked in her thoughts. “Where’s the place?” But she uttered a different question, expecting her thoughts to happen. “Follow me. And ask no more questions. Only me and

Her school attendance was almost perfect to where she can slack off anytime. Not that bad in her grades if she will be absent at the acquaintance party. She thought so. “Hey, don’t tell me you’re not interested to come?” Her friend’s mind is more advance than her. “Hmm, I’ll be interested if you tell me who will be your date first.” For a very long time, she was her friend, not even at any moment did she remembers her friend was dating any guy. Or maybe her love life was so private for her to know it, even if she was her best friend. Though her friend has five years ahead of her, it is not a reason for her not to tell her about her dating the opposite gender. “I’ll introduce him to you soon, don’t be so excited.” Oh, really. Her eyes broadened in surprise. “Thank God, finally! You allow me to know your dating status. I could say, I’m not a girl anymore but a grown-up individual who’s ready to listen to some relationship matter of my best friend.” She reacted to her friend while tea

You had the sweetest smile I will never forget, even when I grow up. I wrote a journal from the day I met you when you played with me with your true and humble character. Thank you for all the things you helped me get through my difficulties as one pathetic outsider. I wrote every detail for you to remember every day of our days together playing on our favorite spot. Never forget me when I leave. I promise I will return to find you. Please don’t cry if you heard I left this town. My new family will take care of me from now on. I will send you letters to get in touch with you the moment I step foot on the doorstep of my new parents. Goodbye Cara. See you again when we grow old. “I have a favor to ask you for the last time we are cousins. Please give this to Cara after I leave. It will be your conscience if you will be a bad boy again.” It was the first and last favor his cousin Vince asked him before he went to his new family, which gave him the reason to retaliate against him. He’s

Tick Tock, tick tock, tick tock… The only sounds she heard at this moment are her wall clock ticking as she was in her very silent mode in front of her closet, sitting on the floor the whole time she came home from school. As she had already found the thing, she was looking for the last two weeks. Her face and body look like an ice-cold snowman, freezing to death in the middle of Antarctica while staring at the picture of Vince in the sketch. It wasn’t only a resemblance, but they really were looking so much alike. The sketch is really a carbon copy of Vince’s face like he was the model used in the sketch. Giving another thought about it. How did it happen? Yes, she already remembers the dream she had clearly. The thing with him in her dream is such an epic like she was in a fairytale. The question is how can she dream about him before she met him. Knock, knock… She quickly stood up from sitting as she heard a strange knock in her room. “Will?” It surprised her when she opened the

If he wouldn’t have the news before this night happens, his cousin is going to win this time. It’s a good thing he hired an investigator to look for him. Vince never changes, he’s always a nuisance on his way. “Hi, you’re more beautiful tonight. Don’t ask me why I’m here. I just want to see you before the party starts. I know you will be busy with your real date once you’ve entered the door at the party. But speaking of your date, where is he?” He whispered the second statement he said for her parents to not hear it. He is not the villain here, but he thinks Vince knew his place already. The reason he is not yet here. “I actually don’t know what happens. I already called him but only his voice message answered me.” She explained to him, obviously pretending she wasn’t in a mix-up with his cousin. “Hey, sweetie, what’s happening?” Her mother asked her, looking baffled about her daughter’s obviously fidgety face. But for her parents not to worry about her, “Um, it’s just nothing, Mr

“Yes, you two! The party is not over yet but you already leaving, huh?” He cried with his eyes excruciating him to remember the yesterday he went to him with the thing about their past. Cara had no fault about it, even if he scrutinized it repeatedly in his sane mind. Cara was innocent, even if she would remember all the things that happened in their past. The reason he was late and the reason he did not show himself to Cara to fetch her in their house was that he did some realization to reflect on the thing that his cousin told him. That he blamed him for everything. But he can’t remember what happened. He came up with a solution to tell her everything that he knows. He was fast enough to get closer to Cara as he held her hand to guard her against his cousin’s drunken state. “Will?” But Cara turned to his cousin as she looked at him worriedly as he noticed her face was like she was being guilty about his cousin. Despite that, she did not take out her hand from his, as he was still

“I’m sorry.”, he moaned while he pulled his lips suddenly when she was about to react to return the kiss that he did to her. She chuckled with embarrassment and pulled herself from him, as she was an inch closer to his body. “You’re sorry for what?” she questioned him, pretending she was ready to forgive him for what he did. However, her face still blushed in that shameful manner of her. “You know what, I like your cuteness whenever you have that face.” “Can you please tell me now, the thing you’re going to tell me?”, she changed the mood with her eyes narrowed and her brows wrinkled, feigning she was being annoyed by his teasing. “One thing I’ll tell you in advance if you look back in your past. Please don’t blame yourself. Because I’m the one at fault.” His teasing face suddenly changed as he went to being serious, saying all those things with her as he was being vague. “What are you saying?” she asked with her face baffling. “I was going to tell you everything but, I’m still c

"Mom, I will tell you. Vince and I, we like each other. I'm saying this not to get your approval but to not lie to you. I'm sorry Mom. I know you would feel disappointed in me. I am mature enough to make my own decision. I remembered my childhood past. Vince and I already talked about it, and he understands everything even about her parents. I was already punished and forgiven. I don't want to blame myself because it wasn't my fault for having a puerile mind." She can't believe it, this is not yet the time to tell her mom about her relationship with Vince. But her mom's ear was like a dolphin's. Her best friend suddenly excused herself and went home early to escape her mom's interrogation. Because she knows, she already saved her when she answered her mom's curious question since it was about her."But, I don't want you to be hurt in the end sweetheart.

"Cara, I have an idea for you to make Vince play with you alone and leave him after. I know a good place." "How do we get there? Do you want to come with us? I'm not sure if I can leave Vince alone. He's my friend, after all.""Look over there! See that big cave? If you can get Vince to go there, you can play with him as much as you want. He might even want to be alone after that. I won't be able to come with you, but I can give you directions. You're a smart princess, I'm sure you'll find your way back here quickly." Will is plotting something for Cara's unsuspecting mind. Vince already anticipates that at any minute she will approach him to carry out Will's deceitful scheme. He turned back quickly to disguise himself from their conversation as he heard them talking about him. A minute later, Cara went to him running her tiny little feet wearing her cute sandals."Hey Vince, let's go on an adventure! I found an awesome place we can explore together. Are you in?""How do you know t

"I don't want to end this." She whispered in her mind when Vince ceased for a moment. Like a wild tigress, she drew him with her alluring play. Unlike those memories in the past that her mind brought, what they are doing right now is not in her wildest hopes to happen. This is very new to her. The emotion she feels rages inside her like a beautiful disaster blasting suddenly. "Oh please, penalize me." She again whispered but in his ear, permitting him to do what he had to from the start of his zeal. She offered herself to him. They filtered those negatives and allowed themselves to give in to their bursting emotion. Allowing themselves to be driven by each other's embrace is the cure for all the wounds they had in the past. She now had this feeling of blaming their parents for what they incurred in their minds because of that thoughtless remorse. Even when she remembered, everything that happened wasn't their fault. Reminding herself of selfishness is not her thing anymore. When she r

She felt uneasy after reading the text sent by the man, who made her heart feel empty just recently. She thought Vince had already cut their connection when he talked to her the last time. And as far as she remembers, they were as good as strangers again when he avoided her every moment she ran into him. Nevertheless, she still found her way to him again when her feet brought her to the hidden room at the library. She looked like she was hypnotized after she read his message. Perhaps she admits to herself that she is missing him. Heading her stride like a fool walking near the end section of the library, she is excitedly feeling nervous. A mixed emotion is raging inside her. She was going inside the hidden room when she sensed a strange atmosphere. She saw Vince on his back and quickly turned around when he heard her footsteps as she entered the room. She suddenly remembered the eyes of someone who was the reason for her fainting from the last time she had been hospitalized. She wa

He headed straight to the cafeteria when he learned her sister was proving her way to bug him much more than he expected. She made an effort by texting him that she was having lunch with Cara. He was planning to come home early, but he felt uneasy about her sister exhibiting her brat-like attitude toward Cara. Looking from afar while walking near them, he saw them looking familiar to each other, but he sensed Cara's face looked like she was just being nice to her sister's undefined character. As if she already knows how to handle her. "I knew you'll find it hard to make friends here easily knowing your snot character, my dear sister. My appreciation for Cara because she could accommodate your type." He bluntly remarked on her sister the instant he went near their table. He was very annoyed by his thoughts of her sister's hidden plans. "Hey, your words!" But Cara understood his words clearly like a harsh brother to her sister. "It's alright Cara, my brother and I are so close enou

Mrs. Perez remembered realizing everything that happened in the past is not her daughter’s fault. It was because of the kid. She remembered Will’s dad, Mr. Anderson, who was sorry to justly revealed and explained to her then about the real condition of his nephew which resulted in his parents’ accidental death. The reason she prevented Cara from getting close to Vince after she learned about what happened in the past. And the reason, she gave her condition to his family was for her to accept her daughter’s fault in the accident. Thus, the real reason she’s still in contact with the Anderson family is for her daughter’s own good. “I thought you made a promise, for my daughter’s sake. What happened to that condition?” “What do you mean?! You know, Vince is not our family anymore. We already cut our connection to him as one of your conditions, for everyone’s sake.” “I wasn’t the one who sold him. Your family was the one who sold him because of his parents’ debt. I didn’t expect you to

“Hey, Vinci!” He knew it. His world will be a mess again because of her. She always annoys him. But he found himself still walking near her table with his today’s lunch. Or maybe he just wants to warn her about being his clingy sister. “From now on, you are not my sister.” Her eyes sparkled like she was waiting for the moment that he will finally cut their connection from each other. He thought, she adores him as her older brother, but why does she look very happy? “Okay. I will tell Dad that we are not siblings anymore because you are now my boyfriend.” As if she can tell it. Her sister is all bluff. He knows her very much to think that she is the more childish. He ignored her and begin to swallow his spoon full of rice and a piece of fried chicken as his viand. “I am not kidding. Since no one knows that you are an adopted son of the school director here. And no one knows that I am his daughter. You can be my fiancé.” She lowered her voice for the reason that others might hear them

“From now on, I am your dad and she is your mom. We are your family now. Forget everything bad that happened in your past. Only remember the good memories with your real parents who gave birth to you. It’s the only thing we cannot change for you. You are only seven-year-old but I know you understand what I mean since you are a smart kid.” The memory he recalled was when his foster dad talked to him the first time after he went with them as his new family. As he also wanted to forget everything that had happened in the accident with his real parents, he followed his dad’s word for him to escape from it. He can’t admit to himself that it was his fault. And his inner side was blaming someone he also treasured from his childhood memories. When he realizes now, he undeniably forgot everything in the past for him to save, condemning the person from his subliminal dark ego. And this person he aimed to blame for his parents’ unfair death is the person he’s still longing to be with, even agai

“You’re going to meet my very first childhood friend. I remember her. The only friend I have before I became your brother.” He finally dared to admit to himself that he forgot his real childhood memories and Cara had a great part of it. And his sister on paper, Lizzy, who’s just arrived from abroad, will be his starting point to speak to her. “At last! I’ve been wanting my whole damn life to meet one friend of yours. Does she know you’re the son of the school’s director? Although I’m the real child of them, you were the first child of our parents the moment they adopted you.” He already knows what she’s thinking as if he knows how their conversation going to end. “That’s why I need you to not be yourself if you meet her, got it?” Because he dislikes her character of being noisy and childish. “Do you like her? You know I can’t shut my mouth when I’m being excited.” That he was expecting. “I’m begging you, please, my pretty little sister?” He implored like a real sweet older brother.
