CHAPTER 01

Why does life suck? Life is wretched. And I hate it so much. All I want is to have a simple and happy life. But to my jinx, what happened was the opposite. I want to smile, laugh, show everyone my greatest beam, but I just can't. I'm suffering. Every time, everywhere. I have no companion but only my family. How I wish they would not leave me. I don't understand why people loathe me so much. I only know that I am what I am. I know to myself what myself is. I only know myself and not them. "Leave this family! We don't need you!

CHAPTER 02
The heat of the sun woke me up from sleeping. I rubbed my eyes using my finger before getting out a yawn.  I hope this day will stand as a hope for me. "Coffee for another wonderful day, Astra..."  I almost jumped in shock when a crew member of the cafe spoke from behind. She was the woman who guided me last night to apply for their place. Yeah, I slept inside the shop. The manager let me in, though. "Shameless self," I uttered, laughing at myself. I didn't want to accept it, but I felt like I was rejecting their help.  "Don't be, Astra. Come on and get this. You have to freshen yourself for a good day. " I nodded and slowly got the cup that she was handing to me. Oh, I don't know her name. Would she introduce herself to me? "Pardon?"

Her apartment really looks so pretty.We just arrived at the café. I even saw my former home while we were in the midst of heading here. Our house looks like there is no life. so pale and was covered with serene."You can borrow my things, Astra. Of course, private things are an exception.""I will pay you back,""Nah, there is no need. Feel at home, okay? Don't ever think about paying back or anything. It's making me sick. I am not asking you to do that, though."I smiled at her. No matter what, I will return her goodness to me. I will spoil her soon once I am better.

CHAPTER 04
I was about to continue walking when someone blocked my way. To my bad luck, someone on my right side just bathed me a so-so-so cold water that can make a person shiver.   I closed my eyes in annoyance. I can feel my body being hugged by the cold. I don't know how to react. I did not expect this!   They had been bullying me since I transferred to this university. I am already used to being teased and bullied by students but I didn't expect it to be this early!   I heard laughs around, I was still closing my eyes. There are murmurs that has reached my ears, their teasing words are making me melt in shame.   "Aren't you tired of getting bullied, penurious girl?" Denisse asked, the leader of mean girls of this universi

I don't know what's with me. I felt a strange feeling that I haven't felt before. This is the first time I felt so relieved.I let out a heavy sigh before writing my John Hancock on the back of my notebook. I have to focus on our lessons but Jinx just can't get out of my mind.I know that I like the guy, I was just attracted. I should have not thought of this, I need to focus first on my studies.I just thought lately that what if I will stop my education and just continue it once I am already better and can stand on my own. I just realized that I am leaning on Sew's and also at Jinx. It's like if I have a problem, they are only the one who is gonna fix it. It's like I have nothing to do with myself."Are you even listening, Miss Marquez?" My attention immediately diverted to our lecturer when I heard my last name from her."A-Ah, y-yes, Miss.." I uttered, stuttering. Her brows creased and I just smiled at her awkwardly. I also smiled at my classma

I was so nervous when I arrived to the hospital. I just came here by taxi and while I am on my way, I could not stop myself from shaking in fear. I just can not believe from what my sister has said. I am not even sure if she really tells the truth.I went to the reception to ask where my father was. It tolds me that Mister Marquez was on the emergency room and that only made my heart's pace go wild."F-Faye.." I uttered under my breathe when I saw her with my siblings and mother outside. Crying and sitting on the chair aside.Cine noticed me first. She was weeping silently while looking at our family. She do not know what was happening because she's too young — six years old only, but she understands what they feel because they are crying."A-Astra..." Cine called and run towards me. I wiped my tears that has fallen when she hugged my legs. "Good thing you came, I m-miss you."I caressed her head and forced a smile. Faye and moth

CHAPTER 07
"What place is this?" I asked Jinx as he stopped his motor in front of a mansion. I was staring at the big mansion because it was really stunning! It was like in a fantasy movies because it felt surreal. I never saw like this in my entire life, not to mention fictions. It was really very beautiful and insanely huge."You will work here as a secretary of a businessman," he said and shrugged his shoulders. I then gulped. What? Secretary? I do not even know how being secretary works and I am still a minor and know nothing!"I would prefer being maid instead of being secretary," I said and shook my head. I was a bit nervous because I could not believe him!And if that, how can we get inside? It was so obvious that it was secured. In just one glance, you will know that if you try to knock the door, securities will kill the hell out of you."Oh, no. Being maid does not suit to you. Do not worry, Astra. This job is easy."I slightly punched h

CHAPTER 08
It was like a very cold water bathed my whole body.Coldness started to run through my system and I felt weak. My phone fell on the floor and that made a sound. The phone breaks and I did not pay attention to it anymore because I felt numb. I could not think clear.If the phone was broken, I am more broken. Pool of tears started to shred down my cheeks so I covered my mouth to stop my sobs. I felt Jinx and Mister Adonis looking at me. When my knees could not take it anymore, I knelt down the floor and looked at the blank floor."Astra?" Jinx called but I did not able to answer. He wagged my shoulders to get my attention, but I was driven by the thought of my father.No, no. This can't be. Dad will never leave us like this. He survived. He did not died! He did not! I gulped very hard and wiped the tears away. I had to go to the hospital so I would see him. I stood up with the left courage in me and faced the two men that was now looking at me

Even if I want to defend myself that I am a good woman, the opposite always shows at me. Yes, I did not wished to live. They just made me to suffer. But they also suffers because of me.  Sometimes, I also think that what if I did not born? Will my family would not suffer? They are surely happily living without me.
