He was finished and just waiting for the two when his phone rang.“Hey! Where are you? I called Mrs. Santos but you’re not at home.” His dad worriedly asked.“We’re in an ice cream shop, dad. Cally wanted ice cream so we bought her some.”“We? And who’s with you?”“With... Uhm... Our professor which Cally mistook as mom.” He said in a low voice. For a second, there was silence on the other line. “Dad? Still there?”“Y-Yeah.

A memory popped into her mind while riding her bike.***“If you feel that you’re alone and no one will be there to comfort you or listen to your problems, just talk to God.” Her dad said while caressing her hair.“Why do I need to talk to Him? We can’t see or hear him, dad.”“But you can feel that He is beside you and with you. In other words, His presence is there if you let Him enter your heart and soul.”“Okay.”***She went to the church and parked her bike near the front door. When she enters the quiet church with yellowish surroundings, she finds peace. There are some people silently praying.She knelt at the seventh row and closed her eyes.‘Lord, I have a problem. I’m sorry if I’m a sinner who just talks to you if I have trouble in life. I don’t know what to do Lord, please... Please help and guide me. I don’t know what’s going on with my life.’ She talked to God in her mind. ‘Am I really

He turned to the supermarket of San Mateo which is in front of the hotel Sanchez was telling.He parked there and waited for the right timing. Ferran was wearing a black face mask and a black cap. He looked at the side mirror of the car he borrowed from a friend, and saw Mr. Wang went out of the car with his, as he calculated, more than five bodyguards.When they entered the hotel, Ferran got out of his car and proceeded to the hotel’s kitchen where he would disguise as a bellboy.

He was so angry."W-What?""You always put my life on the brink of death!" His baritone voice echoed everywhere. “If you wanna die, die alone! Don’t involve me in your stupidity!”"Die? That’s the last thing I would wish, *sshole! And,” He clenched his fist. “For your information, I am the one who feels the pain, not you!""F*ck you!""F*ck you too.""I will beat you! You moron!" Alfarez did not respond to it and just asked a question. "Why don't you use your body?""Because I can't! And that's bullsh*t!" The real Simeon Ferran was really furious."Will you stop cursing for a while? I need to ask if you know anything about this." Alfarez asked.“Talk to yourself.”“I’m serious.”"I don't have any idea, okay? I just... I just saw you after I opened my eyes a while ago.""But I can't see you. Where are
