In the end, Jean followed her friend after a few minutes of staring at her. She must have felt that her decision will not change.

When Jaylyn finally left, Jean went to her office. She still has some papers to sign before she goes home. She usually reaches her office very early in the morning. But that's not a problem for her because her house is nearby.

She studied the papers and signed them before she leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes for a moment to relax. When she opened her eyes, she immediately looked at her watch, it was ten o'clock at night. She first arranged the things and then decided to leave her office.

She was the only person in the office so there were some lights on and she decided to turn them off.

When the elevator opened in the lobby she quickly got out of there but she was surprised to see a familiar image of a man in the reception area of ​​the building. He was sitting so relaxed in one of the chairs that you thought he was familiar with that place. And when he saw her he waved at her and smiled so she covered her mouth. She automatically retreated to where she stood and decided to go to the restroom.

"where are you going?"

"Ahhhh, Frog!" Jean jumped in shock because suddenly the man was next to her and he was also shocked like her.

"Why are you shouting?" he asked her irritably when he recovered from her silence.

"Because you surprised me there."

She laughed a little at what the man said and was really surprised. Shouldn't she be the one to say that. She couldn't fully imagine the speed of her heart beating like lightning at the speed that the man reached her side while he was just in the lobby earlier and was sitting relaxed on the sofa.

"Hmmmp, Leave it here. Don't follow me!" she said annoyed and quickly entered the restroom before she could say anything to her.

She dropped her bag on the side of the sink with a bang as she entered the restroom. That man is starting to get on her nerves. However, she tried to calm herself down. Maybe she didn't go there on purpose. After a while she calmed down.

After calming down, she straightened herself up and left the restroom. She was surprised that she didn't see the man in the lobby but because of that she breathed a sigh of relief that she was no longer in her sight. It means that he is not aiming for me there.

She just ordered the guard to get a taxi for her and wait for her outside the building. The opening of the building is also quite far from the highway.

The ride home to her house is only twenty two minutes, so she can rest in just a few moments.

She felt very tired from what happened today. But isn't that what she really wants to happen to come home tired every day? Because then she falls asleep quickly and she can't think about anything else.

"I thought you would never come out."

Jean quickly covered her mouth and looked at the man. This man's attitude really surprising?

In a mixture of anger and shock, she accepted it and then asked.

"What do you really want? are you really following me? and why are you following me? What do you want, huh?"

"Don't be mad, please I won't do anything bad to you. Even I'm following you."

"So, are you really following me?

Jean was even more annoyed when the man admitted that he was really following her. And it wasn't even shaken by the anger she was showing on him. He seemed to be happy to see her angry because he was still smiling. She clenched her hands.

"Yes, you're right."

She was surprised by the man's direct confession.

"Why are you following me?" she asked.

But before the man could answer, the guard approached her to take a taxi.

"Ma'am, the taxi is waiting." the guard told her.

"It's a plague." Jean said to the guard. Then she looked at the man and hurriedly walked towards the taxi. Maybe later it turns out that she has a bad plan for her that's why he follows her.

"Wait, wait Miss!" he called to her and quickly blocked her path.

Just a little bit more and I will really hurt him.

"What? What do you need from me?" We don't know each other, so I don't know anything we should talk about!"

"I'm sorry, and I hope you'll forgive me, I'm Emmanuel."

He said this while extending his hand in front of her.

Jean frowned. Shaking her head, she walked past the man and was sure that this man was really crazy.

She got into the parked taxi but before she could close the door, the man was already holding my door.

"Wait, can you listen to me first?"

She wouldn't listen to the man anymore but there was something in the man's eyes that she couldn't explain what it was. Maybe a sense of familiarity.

Jean sighed.

"Uncle, just wait a second," she pleaded with the driver, then got out of the taxi again and confronted the man. She looked him straight in the eyes that in the end she wanted to regret. She wanted to look back but she couldn't because there was something in his eyes that made her seem like she was stuck staring at them.

"I need your help." it says it straight.

"What kind of help?" She thought carefully about what help he was talking about but she couldn't really imagine what help he needed from her.

"Because I have nowhere to live. I just arrived in this place and I don't know anyone except you. Can I come with you?"

Jean was really surprised by what the man said to her. Did she hear right? He wants to go with her because he has nowhere to live?

She carefully examined the man from head to toe. The same long sleeved polo and slacks he was wearing this morning is what he is wearing now. And she thinks that what the man is saying is vague because from the looks of it, he looks like a businessman and he attends the board meeting and goes home when he is supposed to be in a wealthy condominium.

Jean looked around to see if he was a member of a gang and their modus operandi was to pretend to be a stranger and settle down. Perhaps he has colleagues around and the plan is to convince her to take him to her house. And then they will break into her house to rob her, so she won't allow what this man is planning to happen.

Jean shook her head and then backed away.

"Just find someone else to fool because I know very well that style of fooling people. That's your modus. You thought, huh!" At a quarter to one, Jean got back into the taxi but quickly blocked the taxi door.

"Trust me please no one can help me but you. I'm not a cheater. I'm not a bad person. I promise I'll never hurt you."

Surprised, Jean looked at the man and saw the sincerity in what he was telling her.

"Please, I'm not really a bad person," he begged again.

Jean sees only one thing in the man's eyes, That is nothing else but honesty. 

Even before she realized what was happening, she saw herself trusting in it.

    Ahhhh, No, no please stop that.Jean said loudly as she suddenly got up. "What a bad dream i have." she said She took a deep breath to calm herself down. She also got up from the bed so that she could relax completely. She poured water from the table near her bed. And after drinking she sat again on the edge of her bed. She touched her face and felt her cheek wet. surely she cries in her sleep.

    Jean stretched and blinked a few times before getting up from lying down and taking a deep breath before getting up, she sat on the bed and stared at the floor.She stood up and looked out the window so that when she looked outside and reflected like she used to when she didn't go to the office this Saturday and Sunday, she first thought about what she would do that day before leaving her room. Jean opened the curtain to look outside. And that's just how shocked. She almost fell from where she was standing when he saw Emman topless.

It has been exactly seven years since her nightmare happened. And still very painful.Jean went to the outside of the house where my table and long chair sat and then she leaned there for a while and closed her eyes.

    Jean hugged herself without stopping the flow of tears in her eyes. At that time she also thought that she would have just died. There is no difference because the pain she feels is killing her every day and it still hasn't disappeared in the past years of her life. In one side of her heart she still hopes that all that happened is not true. That it was all just a bad dream and one day she would wake up from that bad dream too. To this day, she still can't accept that this is just the outcome of everything. And she didn't even think that her relationship with Key would end like that."Key... you know that you are still here in my heart and mind.. Do you know that my love for you is never lost?? But the first one was right. I thought about you-- that you are a bad person because you promise that you will never leave me but you left me alone, if you see me like this, I'm not happy that you're not around."Jean started to cry out loud.In the ten years that it has been gone, the pain tha

    EPILOGUEWHILE looking down at the plateau, a small smile appeared on the Leader's lips. It seems to see something interesting from there. One of the angels, Van, couldn't stop himself from commenting."Does this have something to do with the angels who preferred to return to the mortal world as humans?" The Chief turned. "Why did you say that? that, Van?""I'm not sure. Is there another reason why you're smiling, Leader?""Maybe there is, maybe there isn't," was his figurative reply.

She wasn't living in her parents' house anymore. It's been almost a month."I'm just tired from the amount of things I'm taking care of." Silence passed again. Only the sound of cutlery could be heard. Once again it was Edmin's daddy who broke it."Did someone come between you and Zachriel, Edmingard?" Edmin almost choked. He drank a lot of water. "What kind of question is that, Dad?" Remembering Zachriel, a sadness passed through his chest, although only for a moment."He came with you and Charm for a few days. You said it was at your beach house with Mignus atZambales. He never came back. I can't think of any other reason, well, aside from the fact that that's the only day he told us to stay here.

I and Mignus are one."Right.And he was saying those with utmost conviction, with truth shimmering in his sad but determined eyes.

The way he looked at her with anguish and longing. Was it really possible? Did he come back as an angel because he heard his cries in heaven? Because it knows his tears?

    Edmin woke up the next morning with a heavy heart. He didn't want to get up but she had no other choice. She has a choice. She can stay in his room and worry about people outside or she can pretend to be fine. Either way, she is the loser.She chose the latter.But before going out completely, Edmin's eyes caught the bouquet of roses and papers in the corner of the room. She drew in a violent breath. Taking them out of the room, she headed outside and placed them in a large trash can.Upon reentering the house, she went to the kitchen to make coffee. He caught Manang Marcha and Zachriel having breakfast. The old man immediately stood up. Their eyes met the man's. It was the first to look away."Good morning, Edmin. How are you feeling?"

He didn't know where that anxiety was coming from. He just wanted to see Edmin's condition.Like the first time he peeked through the window. He bent slightly to get a good look at Edmin's form. The woman's other hand is holding the mold while the other is holding a bottle. It drinks. Just by looking at it, he could see that it didn't do multitasking very well.Edmin dropped the bottle, probably drunk.
