When the past, present and daydream collides

For almost a month or so, Shantal drifted in and out of her consciousness, again, exactly just like what happened to her when she got her first breakdown followed by her robot's departure. At the same time, during the most part of that 'on and off sleeping phase', Shantal also happened to be engrossed in a specific type of dream which were consisted of nonetheless her past life, the present time as well as a few of those absurd moments she has no recollection of experiencing ever in her life. Basically, her dream was mostly regarding the life that she once used to have with Steve, who apparently was the first robot she happened to fell in love with way before she even got to meet Alex. However, unlike the same old dreams that she often usually had before, this time, it was kind of different; much like of a twist because instead of being teleported back in time and being forced to relive the events, which not to mention she dreaded to remember in the first place, Shantal thi

To hell with default mode

SHANTAL's P o V ~~~~     The moment I saw Alex wearing the necklace that looked exactly the same as the one that I lost back when I went for a week-long vacation at our family's townhouse, I knew that I was f*cked up. It was as if every pieces of everything started to fall into places and I was able to make sense of the situation. Everything that I found peculiar before, turned out to be not weird at all; this realization explained everything! In my very eyes, it was as if the veil of mystery that was shrouding my sight was finally pulled down.   No wonder! When I first laid my eyes on Alex as soon as he got out of that darn box, I saw him sweat. Yet here I am feeling amazed by it, thinking that the robot they sent me was way too life-like. When I noticed the absence of artificial light glowing in his eyes, I should have suspected it all along. But instead, I was fooled

Her life or mine

JODI's P o V   I was a bundle of nerves sitting at the passenger seat, while I let Harold to take over the steering wheel. With the state that I am in right now, I am not confident that I can make it to our destination safe; so I allowed him to drive us back to Alex's place instead as we were also pretty certain that there was no other place that Shantal would ever want to go than that alone.   At the same time,  I tried my best to convince myself that everything will go according to what we initially planned; that there was no way for Shantal to find out the truth. However, my gut feeling was telling me otherwise and as if my imagination was determined not to give me peace of mind, countless undesirable scenarios kept playing inside my head; these possibilities made me feel restless as they were in a constant replay in an endless loop by my mind that it did not take that long before my thoughts went into complete chaos

Enough is enough

ALEX's P o V  Dread was written all over Jodi's face when she approached us and I know that the same expression showed on my face as well. She hurriedly knelt beside Shantal and took her into her embrace. "Cuz! Open your eyes. Can you hear me? You have to stay with me, please. You understand?"  I heard the edge of panic in her voice but then out of nowhere, I saw Jodi slapped Shantal's face. I flinched when the resounding sound of a palm connecting to a cheek registered on my ears but I was too startled to even leave a comment. I understood that it must have been the fastest way that Jodi could come up with in order to let Shantal stay awake. But I am pretty sure that slapped must have hurt; as in a lot. In fact, I could still see the red print left by her hands in Shantal's skin. However, despite her effort, it seemed that it was still all for naught. It was at this time that Harold arrived at the scene as well. His

It gave him away

JODI's P o V When Harold took Shantal's body from my arms and picked her up, I was caught off guard. He no longer explained to me and started running back to where our car was and I saw Alex ran after him. Naturally, I also ran after them. We all hopped inside the car and make ourselves as small as we could; the car was already cramped with a total of four seats, let alone add another one unconscious body lying like a sack of potato over our lap. However, at this point, no one has the audacity to utter even a single word of complaint as we all knew well enough that we did not hot time for that. There was a life at stake and things escalated up to this point because of our own mistake. It was our collective wrong choice that led us all to this dreadful situation. Now, this was a matter of life and death and so we decided to speed up and drove off to the nearest hospital and it was a good thing that the place was not busy so as soon as we got there, th

Don't make me lose it

Over the course of time that Shantal had fallen unconscious, a lot has to be said on Jodi's side. After  Mathilde learned of the situation, she instantly devised a plan that was advantageous to no one but her side. It turned out that Jodi not only told her the reason behind Shantal's current condition, but she also told her mother about the agreement that she had with Harold in exchange for her silence.   "I knew it! Finally, our time has come, and as I expected, you are the one who led us to this success. You are such a gem."   Mathilde told her daughter while they were in the middle of having their afternoon tea. Likewise, the amusement in her voice was clear for all ears to hear. However, unlike her smiling face, Jodi, on the other hand, was sporting a sullen expression. She pursed her lips into a tight line as she put her cup down the table.   "Mom, you know how much I love you, right?"   "O

I love myself too!

JODI's P o V ~~~   A lot had happened ever since Shantal fell to her coma and when I said, 'a lot' I really mean it. Because there was indeed so much going on around her. The media went crazy as they were eager to cover her story. All of a sudden, everyone wanted a piece of my cousin; the public was basically dying to know more about what happened to Shantal Nordstorme.   The sudden news about an heiress of a big conglomerate that suddenly falls sick for no apparent reason took not only the business world but also the entertainment circle by storm and everyone was nothing but curious to know what was the reason behind all of it.   Of course, we tried to keep as much information as we could from the public and I must say, we were able to do a good job about it; the damage was mitigated to bear minimum. However, I was not able to escape the prying eyes of my cunning stepmo

Can you let me go now

JODI's P o V ~~~   As much as I did not want to start hating my stepmom, I could hardly shake the feeling of repulse towards her anymore; especially so when I kept on seeing the lopsided grin that was pasted on her face as she tried to come up with possible outcomes in her mind. I could see just from reading her expression that she was plotting against Shantal and the more she was showing her true nature in front of me, the stronger my aversion gets. I closed my eyes and inhaled deeply just to help me calm my nerves. Then after letting out a deep breath, very carefully, I put my own cup of tea atop the glass table. We happened to be having our afternoon tea at a local shop outside so I tried to hide my disgust. The last thing that I would want was to attract unnecessary towards us. "Mom, you know how much I love you, right?" I whispered softly. But when I heard her answer, I was only left

I guess BLOOD is thicker than WATER

MATHILDE's P o V ~~~~~     I fought hard the urge to roll my eyes when Jodi started acting out in front of me. Of all the places, she chose to confront me in public!   The audacity of this lass to turn her back on me after all the sacrifices I made for her... HOW UNGRATEFUL! I raised her as though she was my own child! Yet is this how she was going to repay the kindness I had shown her all these times???   From the current looks of it, it seemed that this stepdaughter of mine was willing to go against my words and crossed me for the sake of saving the face of her cousin. Is this why some say blood is thicker than water?   "Then allow me to talk to you sincerely just this once as well"   I deliberately straightened my back while I was at my seat as I said that. I also make sure to hold her gaze. At t

Karma make things even

JODI's P o V For a moment, I noticed the glow of malice in my stepmom's eyes. I also saw how she balled her hands into a fist, but turned a blind eye on her reaction and instead, I insisted to make myself heard. "But mom, I simply can't do it!"  I shook my head in a vigorous manner to let know how I was completely against to having anything to do with her ill plan. Then I chewed on my lower lip as I found myself hesitating to say the next words.  "These things that you are  asking me to do...." I trailed off as I tried to think of how I could describe it and made it sound like it was not that bad. However, even after  a long contemplation, I was still unable to come up with the right word to say. So rather that sugar coating it, I just went straight to the point.  " --- they were nothing but treason!"&n
