AMEIRA A ( 8.1 )
It is past six in the evening when Ameira finishes her four jobs. She has different jobs. Initially, at Aling Lordes' store which is a convenience store, second, at a fast-food chain as a dishwasher, third, as a sidewalk clothes seller, and fourth, as a dog sitter. All her part-time jobs are in the same city, but on different streets where there are only a few rides or walks to get to them. "One order of pares, please," she said to the man who owns Pares-Pares. She sat in an empty seat and waited for her order. While waiting for her food, she swept her eyes over the place. The lights at each stall are brightly colored, as are the lights in the shops and other structures that surround the entire Makati area. There was a commotion around like at a market. "Here's your order," said the female waitress who was wearing a dress that she usually wears. They don't have a dress code or anything, unlike the other expensive restaurants. Ameira nodded and thanked her, then she started eat

AMEIRA was lying silently on the sofa while listening to a song.Unwell by Matchbox Twenty, her favorite.All day staring at the ceilingMaking friends with shadows on my wallAll night hearing voices telling meThat I should get some sleepHer house is very quiet. She is dazed and hidden in the dark. There is no one to talk to, only the furniture she has. But she was quieter, often keeping her mouth shut and staring at the ceiling.Darkness and silence.It envelops her whole system and life.Feels sick but what can she do to ease it?No matter how hard she tried to leave and forget the things that had hurt her, it only dragged her back to her prison. That's why she let it go and just accepted her fate—until she got used to it.She finds comfort in the silence, making her feel at ease after everything she has gone through.There are many kinds of silence.There's this type of silence that all you could hear was the ticking of the clock and every water drop coming from the bathroom and
AMEIRA A ( 9.1 )
"What is this commotion all about? And—why are you laughing so loudly, Kendrick? Are you being naughty again?" A skinny white woman blurted in while holding a tray of food. She's wearing a white jumpsuit and her long chocolate hair is in a clean bun. With a heart-shaped face, thick eyebrows, long thick lashes, pointed nose, and pouty small lips, she's undeniably gorgeous. "Nothing, Ms. Zebina. I'm just laughing at this kid," Kendrick said, still not stopping to giggle. "Every time she speaks, she sounds too cold. It's like you'd need a lot of blankets because of how cold she is, and then she blushes at the question, "have you eaten?" His face almost turned red because he was laughing too much. Ameira clenched her fists, ready to blow this man's face right now. Aleja noticed the sudden change in Ameira's mood so he tapped Kendrick on the shoulder. "Stop it," he coldly commanded him. "Isn't this funny, bro? Damn, when she avoids us it's like she doesn't know us. Then, every time we
AMEIRA A ( 10 )
DENVO MONTEVALLO is happily hanging out in a private and exclusive room at the Paradise Club, with four beautiful women he has paid to entertain him. He is with his right hand, Enrique Morales, who is his assistant in everything and the person he trusts the most. They were still wearing office clothes, and it didn't bother them since he was the CEO of Montevallo Corp after all. So, it's not a big deal if he misses his meetings and doesn't show up for work. His mother, the chairman of the board, is there to do the work. His mother also takes care of everything about the business, and he? Of course, there is nothing to do but waste their money. It was just a coin for him and his mother. They had more than a trillion dollars in the bank, not including all the wealth left by his late father-in-law. He doesn't care about the old man. It's a lucky thing that he's dead. He doesn't have any problems anymore because when the old man was still alive, only sermons and comparisons were heard
AMEIRA A ( 11 )
After leaving the private area where she talked to Denvo, SAMARA was catching her breath while holding her chest. Her heart was beating so fast that until now, her knees were still shaking with fear and shock. She couldn't believe how fierce that demon was. After riding an elevator, she reached the third floor of the building and walked in a hurry to her office. She must calm herself down and call Aleja to tell him about what they talked about. She sat on her swivel chair as soon as she reached her office. She grabbed her iPhone X from the drawer, searched for Aleja's number, and called him. Her hands kept shaking after seeing that scene. She couldn't believe that devil! He's a fucking beast! It took minutes before Aleja answered her call. [Samara, have you met him already? Did everything go smoothly?]” Aleja asked. Samara shook her head as if Aleja would see it. "Y-yes, and no. I did meet him, but he burst out in anger when I ruined the contract. H-he knows that I ruined the

She watched and saw how Aleja's case ended. They put so much pressure on him that he could no longer fight for himself. She would have liked to help him but she didn't know how. As she wasn't even present when the crime took place, how could she possibly defend Aleja given the fact that she knew nothing about the crime? The trial ended and Aleja was granted a perpetual reclamation or forty years in prison. She also visited him several times in prison. She was not even sure if Aleja would meet her but she dared to visit the young man. And because Samara's family was rich even though she was a minor, she was able to come and see Aleja. But unfortunately, Aleja did not agree to meet her and did not accept any visitors in the jail. However, Samara is persistent. Despite being rejected several times, she never gives up trying. She always brings Aleja food at the end of the week. As expected, Aleja kept rejecting her. As the years passed, Aleja became curious about that person who
AMEIRA A ( 12 )
ALEJA parked the pick-up truck he was driving next to the Paradise Club itself. After getting out of the truck, Kendrick reminded his friend, "Remember our agreement, you can't fall for Samara. All women are yours as long as Samara is mine. Aleja turned to him and said, "Even they are all yours. I have no interest in any woman, I'm too busy with things," he told his friend then they entered the club together. They walked straight to the third floor where Samara's office was. They will discuss the first step to take towards their success. They'll fry them in their own oil. Everyone who destroyed him will pay the price, or let's say, more than the price. Eye to eye, life to life. A lack of control over his anger and a desire for revenge are driving him. And this is what motivates him to continue the plan. He'll also look for the real murderer—the person who killed his dad. He will spare no one. As he and Kendrick got into the elevator, he leaned against the wall while his hands w
AMEIRA A ( 12.1 )
He's curious. He wants to know more about this young girl. It has been weeks since he last saw her. As a result of what had transpired on the construction site of the bookstore, he discovered she had already resigned from the convenience store. She had disappeared without a trace. He's bothered about her sudden disappearance. "Wait—she's there?" Kendrick blurted out and dashed towards the glass wall to take a look at the girl Aleja was referring to. "Hoe lee sheet! She's going to sing! Wow! It's been three weeks since she brought us a lunchbox and we haven't seen her since then. She also left my grandma's store, so I won't be surprised if she's really running away from someone!" He hissed. Samara also stood up from her seat and approached them. Samara also looked at Ameira who started playing. ~I used to shut my door While my mother screamed in the kitchen. ~ "Yes, she is. She's running for her life," Samara mumbled but Aleja and Kendrick clearly heard her. They both glanced
