NATHALIE’S POV

-

Sir Calix’s gaze was so intense I had to close my eyes.

He released his hold on my lower back. Then, I felt his warm hand rise from my neck, gently tracing upwards towards my jaw. I sensed his warm breath, a mere inch from my lips.

“Nathalie...”

My grip on his arm tightened, my fingernails nearly embedding themselves in his skin from sheer terror.

I heard his chuckle as he moved, and felt the warm, soft press of his lips on my forehead.

He gave my forehead a quick peck, then lingered there with a long, tender kiss at the same spot. Feeling of his cherished and gentle assurance, the tightness I felt disappeared, as did my tight grip on his arm.

Upon opening my eyes, his smile was soft, his gaze gentle and warm, holding mine.

“Did I scare you?”

I shook my head.

“I’m sorry for bringing you here.I figured out this spot would make it impossible for you to get away from me. Don’t come here with Brianna. It’s too deep here. I’m already up to my ankles, but it’s much deeper h

    NATHALIE’S POV 🍃-“I want to see my mother. Take me to her.” I kept pleading.I felt so light. My whole being was so tired, that I couldn’t feel my body anymore.“I’m begging you all, save my mom.” My words came in stutters, tears blurring not just my eyes but my voice too.“If you still can’t get in our place and haven’t found a safe way through -- let the fire swallow me whole. Let me be with my mom when I take my last breath.”The two firefighters just looked at me, as if they had no intention of following my plea -- to go to my mother.“What a tragedy for whoever’s in that house -- the fire’s still quite large.”I turned to the two women who were talking. They caught my attention from what they were talking about.From how they’re describing the house in question, there’s no doubt in my mind it’s our house they’re referring to.“Is there anyone inside the house?”“Yes. There are still people in that house. As far as I know, the one who lives there is the one who's there.”“Isn’t

    NATHALIE’S POV 🍃-I’m making my way through the crowd. Many are filled with worry, gripped by fear, and overcome with panic.Many are crying with joy as they hug their loved ones. And, like me, there are also who are looking for their loved ones.“Mom! Where are you?!”I stopped walking and searching for mom after seeing our house.The fire in our home is thick with flames and enormous in size.The firefighters are continuously spraying water on the fire, but no matter how much water they use, it seems like the fire in our house isn’t being extinguished.Meanwhile, the other house had a small fire.There was a firefighter who managed to get out safely from another house carrying the people living there.“Mom...” I called out, shaking with fear.“No, please.” I cried out.I hoped mom wasn’t inside our house. But, she wasn’t here either.My feet acted on their own, next thing I knew, I was walking, my eyes glued to our house.“Mom, please, be safe.”I stopped walking when I was block

    NATHALIE’S POV 🍃-Once I hopped off the bus, I walked a couple of minutes till I got to the mall.Upon entering, I dialed Harrison’s contact number.When the first ring came, I broke into a smile. “Har–”I broke off from saying his name as the phone kept ringing.It was surprising and unsettling, he didn’t pick up my call after after one ring. I realize since I met Harrison, he has always answered my calls after just one ring.Now my call has ended, and he still hasn’t answered.I hid my phone first and looked for a place where I could wait for him.I saw a fast-food place that’s budget-friendly enough for me that I can wait for Harrison there.I entered to the fast-food chain, I stood in line for a while when it was my turn.“One regular burger and one regural cola drink.” I ordered, then looked for the wallet inside my bag.“One regular burger and one regular cola drink, the total is three dollars.” I heard the cashier say.It’s strange, I can’t find the wallet that holds my extr

    NATHALIE’S POV 🍃-Fortunately, on my way to the mansion, I didn’t run into Madame Beatrice.When I was near the gate of Sir Calix’s mansion, I stopped.From where I was standing, the end of the high wall, which is part of the mansion’s grounds. I stopped here and stood.There is CCTV outside the gate. If they see me on the CCTV footage, they might know I went there, and Sir Calix might arrest me.‘I should just wait for Sir Calix’s car.’ I said at the back of my mind.But I wanted to talk to Brianna.This was a good opportunity for me to talk to her, while no one else was here except for the household.I looked around.All the homes in this area are spacious and resemble mansions. While some have security guards posted outside their properties, others do not -- for instance, the house adjacent to Sir Calix’s mansion.Right now, the only people around are me and the security guard who’s watching outside the mansion.I took a small step back to hide behind the big plant the moment the

    NATHALIE’S POV 🍃-“We’ll get together later,” I told Harrison as a reminder.I called him to remind we were supposed to meet.Ever since I wanted to pinch his cheek earlier, I’ve been excited to see him. I really want to see him and pinch his cheek.“Taking time to call me again to remind this, my heart is all aflutter and brimming with joy, and every part of who I am feels light, Do you want me to come see you now?”“Nah. I can hear someone calling you. You gotta go.”I smiled faintly and laughed a bit when I heard his deep sigh.“I’ve got somewhere else I need to go, so it has to be later. I’ll text you where we can meet up.”“Message me the place and time and I’ll come see you right away.”“Thank you, Harrison. Bye.”“Always take care of yourself. I can’t wait to see you. Bye, Nat.”Then I ended the call.I hid my phone in my bag, then went out of the room.I caught up with mom heating up the pancakes she cooked earlier.“Oh, Nathalie? Doesn’t your stomach hurt?”“No, mom.

    NATHALIE’S POV 🍃-After putting most of my things in the suitcase, I left the room to take a shower.Right after I left the bathroom, I headed directly to the dining table.“Mom, what’s that smell?” I asked as I near the table.“What smell?” She asked in surprise as she approached the table with the sliced ​​orange and apple.“There’s a bad smell.” “A bad smell? I don’t smell anything bad.”“Mom, there really is a bad smell one of the food. We might get a stomach ache.”I smelled the food on the table one by one. First, the three sunny side up eggs, “Not this.”I smelled the ground pork fried in a flat circle shape. I shook my head, “It smells good.”Next I smelled the hotdog and shook my head. “Not this one either.”I also smelled the water.“Are you really going to smell the water?” She wondered aloud.“Yes, mom.” I answered confidently. “To see if the water doesn’t smell bad.”“That’s from the fridge.”“To make sure.”Mom nodded, laughing. “Oh, okay.
