Elexier’s POV
When we arrived at my men’s condo, Amira fell asleep in an instant. She cried all the way to here and she can’t calm herself. She is so dead tired from all the crying and I feel bad. I can’t help but to think that she won’t know all these, she won’t hurt like this if she haven’t met me in the first place. Then I won’t offer her the marriage thingy because I don’t know her. I feel bad for her. I’m sorry.
She won’t even eat. She’ll eat but just once, or not at all. Shes being like that for exactlya week now. Since we got in here.
I slowly opened the door of the room she’s staying. She is still lying asleep in her bed. I looked at the table beside her bed and I saw taht she didn’t eat her food. It seems like she didn’t even touch it. She don’t have the energy to eat. I feel worried about her for that. If

Elexiers POV I played with my glass of wine for a bit then drank to it as I watch the run rise from the balcony. Amira fell asleep after our conversation yesterday. She wants to die and I was so alarmed by it. She is suicidal now. God thing she ate dinner. She takes all the blame. I know she is angry to her father, but she is also feeling regrets for wasting her life believing her father is a good man. I kept on thinking what to do to her? I feel like she is somehow comfortable with me. Do we love each other then? But that's not the point here. I wonder in what way will I ever make her feel like she's not alone in her probably biggest battle in her life. It's not that time to prioritize romantic connection. All she needs to focus on now is herself. I'll help her of couse. But then I should also fix all the mess I have. My father's business and Mr. Lozano who hunts her. Us it the timet to cooperate with the cops? I turned my

Amira’s POV “Elexier, I really owe you a lot. Thank you for keeping me with you, for keeping me safe. If not because of you, I’ll be a dead body already.” I said then looked at Elexier. He looked at me with his soft eyes. He listens to me all the time. That’s what I need right now really. Somebody to talk to. I feel home with him. I don’t know why. I already feel comfortable with him. Maybe because no man have ever done these things he do to me before? He made me feel different feelings that I never thought I’d feel. He made me have different kinds of firsts. He’s my first kiss. I don’t know what to call it, so, my first romantic relationship I guess? No. Not really romantic. I guess, my first ever more-than-friends relationship. He’s my super hero too. I don’t know how many times he have already saved me. But I know it’s more than once. I smiled and shook my head at that. He is not my friend, I’m not also his. I don’t really know

We can’t stay that long in there as Amira wanted to return to her studies and normal life. So I already contacted the NBI an later this day, we’ll go meet them up in their head quarters. I’ll be with Amira. I told her that she don’t have to come to me, buts he told me she wants to be in it. After we talk to the police to know what will we do, she will go and visit her friend as she requested. I cannot say no to her now as she haven’t got out there for so many weeks. We’re on our way to the police and Amira is beside me. She is just silent. I didn’t bother to speak too. I don’t still know what to feel. I can say I’m nervous. But this is how it now. There is n turning back. I want everything settled in the right and legal way. To get all things back to normal how they should and used to be. Not just for me,

Amira’s POV Elexier got out that room after roughly two hours. I was so bored the whole time but still so anxious. I don’t know what they’re all talking about there. I badly want to know . But I can’t. I stood up as soon as I saw Elexier and some police officers and General Santos with him. “What did you talk about? What happened?” I asked curiously at him as soon as he approached me. “We talked about everything Amira. All the things they have to know.” He said then smiled at me sweetly. It’s like he’s assuring me that I shouldn’t be nervous because everything will fall in to their places and everything will be alright. I smiled back at him. “General, before we go, we still want to discuss something. It’s her case. It’s different from mine.” Elexier said then the general nodded. He gestured us to his office and we followed him. When we got there, just like earlier, he g

But, love is blind.One more thing, my life, is full of things I've never wished for."Stay back!

Elexier’s POVI am here sitting in a table, reading some file from my company. Even if I am here at home, guarded by police men outside, I can’t just stop working. I don’t want my company going down as it is my source of income. I dragged a file in front of me ans sign each pages.Amira called earlier to tell me that she got in her friends house safely. And she say they plan to go outside and unwind. I have a bad gut feel because of an unknown reason. It’s like I don’t want her to go outside. I feel like it’s still unsafe for her to go around. I tried to say it to her but she said she just really need to go out. So I didn’t argue any longer, I just said yes.This home arrest are not really that strict. As I am only committed on helping my father on his drugs operation, I don’t use it, and I don’t own anything. I can still go out but only three times a week. And I also pleaded the General that I should c

Amira’s POV“I hope this helps you even jus a little bit.” Elocin said and looked at me while eating ice cream. She decided to take me to an amusement park. She made me ride different rides and made me play different games. And it was fun actually. I was really fun. She also treated me foods. And I can say that this calms refreshed me. I love this day. This is one of the greatest after everything that has happened.“Yes it did. A lot actually. Thank you for taking me here. At least for a day I will forget things.” I said and smiled ta her too. I continued eating my ice cream. We are here sitting in a bench watching the sunset. It’s almost over. And it’s beautiful. Endings can be beautiful too. And sunsets are the proof. And as they say, we all have a happy ending. So if today wasn’t happy, then today is not the ending. I’m holding on to that.After a few more minutes

You know that if you cant you can just inform me? I’ll stay just say it.” “No, it’s really fine no worries. I just don’t want to leave him here.” *Closing door sounds* My eyes are closed and I am just half awake. But I can clearly hear what they are saying. I can hear the familiar voice of Amira and her friend Elocin. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Amira’s familiar back peeling some fruits. I looked around and I realized that I am in the hospital. I don’t remember how I got here.The last thing I remembered was falling down to the ground when I suddenly heard a loud sting in my ear. But all I can think is thank God for giving me a second life.
