SITTING on the pallet, Aleja looked up and watched how the moon, together with the stars, illuminated the sky. It's past three in the morning but Hypnos has not visited him yet. Maybe because he's thinking too much, insomnia is attacking him again.Inside the prison, his eyes were always wide-open as he stared in emptiness. Doubt filled his head as he wondered whether he would keep fighting or give up.He would always wonder why he would pursue his desire for freedom and justice when the person he expected to believe in him turned her back and left — with his best friend.He loved the girl and she loved him back. However, when things go wrong, she chooses to trust someone else rather than her own boyfriend. He could only wonder if what he was doing made sense or if he needed to stop crashing into the wall.The flesh of his mind was tangled.Men should not cry, that's what they always say, but could he cry now while no one sees?He is very tired, more than physical body fatigue. Muscle
"Uncle, why did you call?"[ Are you on the way to the mansion?]"Yeah, dad asked me to," he replied.[ Okay, I just wanna greet you a happy birthday and uh, if your dad...] Ezecarl on the other line heaved a sigh."Uncle?" You can hear in his voice that Aleja is wondering.His Tito sighed once again. [ Aleja, if your dad reveals something, just understand him. He's just doing what's best for you. ]Aleja almost stopped the car to better understand what his uncle was trying to convey. "What do you mean, uncle?" Aleja couldn't raise his eyebrows and they were almost touching.[ A birthday gift, perhaps? This is going to be successful. Well, this should be. ]After that the call ended. He gave the phone a confused look before putting it down and driving faster.When Aleja arrived at their mansion, he quickly got out of the car. He didn't bother to close the door and turn off the engine. He almost ran into the mansion.He passed by one of their maids carrying a tray of food. "Is that fo
"Uh, I want to become an architect and I plan to marry Celestina after our graduation. I already bought a ring for the proposal. You know that I'm ready to build a family with her," Aleja said, almost hesitating to speak."I'm happy to hear that." A sincere smile appeared on Alejandro's lips. But he saw some sadness in his father's eyes."Is this really the only reason why you called me here, Dad?"He was restless for some inexplicable reason.He stared straight into his father's eyes.Other people say he looks just like his mother, but he got his character from his father. From being calm, having a positive mood, and being respectful, to being a trustworthy person. His heart is soft toward everyone he comes into contact with.Before Alejandro opened his mouth to answer his son, someone knocked on his office door. It opened and the butler Mikado appeared."Doctor Montevallo, we already prepared the room for your daughter—" He stopped speaking when he saw Aleja's frown. He closed his e
Aleja froze in his seat. His mouth gaped open and his eyes welled up in tears. The loud thumping of his heart deafened him. It felt suffocating but the thought that this little girl might be fooling him is his last hope.Aleja gathered all his strength to speak."Who on earth are you? Stop pranking me, this isn't funny, kid—"[ He told me to call you if something happens to him. I'm your little sister and I saw how our father died.]He's not dumb. As they say, children don't know how to lie.His fingers massaged his forehead as he spoke, "Call an ambulance." Aleja took a U-turn and quickly drove his car back to their mansion.He couldn't believe it and was trying not to believe what the kid said. Even so, he almost ran back to the room where he had left his father. He can't lose someone in his lifetime, not again. His dad is the only family Aleja had and if he ever loses him, he will never forgive himself."Dad? Dad!" His tendons were almost torn from screaming, hoping he would hear
Episode 23: Beauty.Reminders to all viewers who are reading this chapter:“Not everything you see on social media is true but it doesn't give you the right to judge them and make them lose their self-esteem just because they wanted to look good. Not all people have the courage to love their flaws, it takes time. Let them learn from their own mistakes.” ***It's Okay Not To Be Okay hospital, where Dainiel is confined because of her illness, which she denies and her body refuses to accept. She was dressed up and had makeup on. Her long shoulder-length hair was also loose. Her cell phone camera was ready to take a picture of herself.Prior to that, she checked her surroundings in the room where she was staying. In this room, she saw that she was the only one left in the room. They were all in the same room, but because it was a public room, a few males mixed with them, but because they had entertainment available to the patients, her companions were not present.A traumatized woman, Da
Although he left her for no reason and he just disappeared even though she only met him online, she never thought that she would make him her world. Inexplicably, she loved the man despite the fact that she had never heard his voice or seen his face or what he looked like. All she knew was that her heart ached every time she thought about that person who touched her heart. She even calls him by his pet name, 'Izah,' since her pronunciation is poor. Instead of Elijah, she pronounces it as 'Eliza'.But no matter how much wisdom or understanding she gives him; he still chooses to leave her. She can't help but ask herself why he can't choose her but when it comes to others he can. Dainiel laughed to herself when she asked this question while her tears continued to flow like a river that refused to stop flowing.Pain, anger, and questions that she wanted to be answered but were unlikely to happen. With every beat of her heart, she felt the pain of its beating and the emotion she felt drov
She knows everything about the woman. The girl is on everyone's dark side, and this time she gets the chance to meet the person she was waiting for so long. Will she succeed in preventing her death or will she cause her death? There is a great pleasure coursing through her veins and a desire to see how they die foolishly as a result of their weakness. This desire runs through her entire body. Most people don't know what they are really asking for when they want to die, so they find her thoughts funny. People want to die easily because pain is too much for them, but they don't know what they really want. It doesn't matter if it's greed or desire; she'll grant it to them. She’s everyone’s karma and demons. Her height matched that of the woman leaning on the patient's bed as she grabbed the sharp objects she usually used as she went over to her. The snake knives.She saw her tremble in fear as she folded her legs and moved to stay away from her, thinking she was about to kill her. She
On the other hand.In the conference room where the various departures of high-ranking hospital officials were presented, none other than Celestina Abbot sat in the center at a long table that could fit the fifteen teams leading each department.Taking a look at the information and background on Aleja Montevallo, the son of this hospital who according to rumors and investigation, died at the hands of his own sons.His return is not supported by any of them, and they are debating accepting him into the hospital since it would severely damage the hospital's reputation, knowing it is well-known and has the highest and most advanced technology in the world.“I don’t allow him to join us even though he’s the heir of this hospital. I declined." The man in his 40s from the department of psychology, the chief, disapproved of Aleja coming back, as he closed the black folder containing the article about Aleja becoming a doctor at this hospital.“Me too, accepting an ex-convict in our hospital i
