LUCIA

No sooner had my hand slid off the doorknob that the door was forcefully swung open. The force was so strong that I lost my balance in the process. My body nudged forward like I weighed nothing.

For a split second, the thought of me landing face first to the ground flashed before my eyes. I knew that the impact was going to be traumatic, so I brazed myself. I squinted my eyes shut like that was going to be of help in any way.

The only help that would give was that I wouldn't be able to s

    LUCIANo sooner had my hand slid off the doorknob that the door was forcefully swung open. The force was so strong that I lost my balance in the process. My body nudged forward like I weighed nothing. For a split second, the thought of me landing face first to the ground flashed before my eyes. I knew that the impact was going to be traumatic, so I brazed myself. I squinted my eyes shut like that was going to be of help in any way.The only help that would give was that I wouldn't be able to see when my skull is bashed roughly on the floor. I waited for the impact, already preparing myself for the fatal fall. But it never came. Instead, my body landed on something softer and firmer, like a cushion that was soft but also a little bit hard. I stayed in that position as my heart pounded loudly in my chest and fear cripped beneath me.Why wasn’t I feeling any pain? Was I dead? If I open my eyes now, would I be in heaven? “You’re not getting off?” It wasn’t until I heard that particula

    LUCIABreakfast was boring but it was also quick. Just what I wanted. I’d rather have that than be in a conversation with him. Not after he ignored me and walked out on me like I didn't exist. After I was done eating, the maids came out to pack up the dishes. Today’s breakfast was simple but delicious.Eggs and bacon with toasts and a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice. Just the thought of it after I had already eaten made my mouth water again. I got up from my chair and walked out of the dining room. As I passed by Alejandro, the corner of my eyes caught him staring vaguely at me. Like he had something to say but he was holding back.I noticed he had been stealing a glance or two at me while we were eating but I ignored it. I didn’t want to care. I increased my pace and left him in the dining room while I headed to my room. The one place I didn't want to be in but I had no choice. I desperately wanted to go out for a stroll, to stretch my legs and arms and also breathe in the

    LUCIADoctor Sanchez walked over to me while Alejandro lazily strolled behind. He looked exhausted, like he didn’t want to be here and he would rather use his precious time for something better.Dr. Sanchez I mean, not Alejandro.He got to where I was and pushed out a faint smile. “Good morning Signora Lucia” “Good morning Dr. Sanchez” I greeted back.“Don Alejandro contacted me that you have an issue with your health?” He muttered as he looked at Alejandro then back at me.An issue with my health? My brows furrowed slightly.Was that how he worded it?I shook my head and smiled “No…i’m fine, I just woke up with a mild headache this morning. But i’m fine now, it was just something minimal” I responded so confidently like I wasn’t just about to literally pass out some minutes ago.Mild? Minimal? Heck, Lucia, you couldn’t even stand still at a point. My eyes darted to Alejandro for some weird reason that my brain couldn’t fathom. He held a blank expression, with his hands stuffed into

    LUCIAThe air was thick with silence. The world felt like it had suddenly stopped moving and time had paused.Carlos stood rooted in front of me. I couldn’t see his facial expression but I knew his countenance had definitely changed. He moved his hand backwards, and grabbed one of my hands, giving it a gentle reassuring rub. The kind of gentle rub that spoke of me not worrying and leaving everything to him.“What do you mean, Dad?” He asked.“I mean she goes nowhere Carlos. Take her back inside” I heard Alejandro reply immediately, his voice cold to the touch.“Why father? She needs immediate medical attention. She’s weak” Carlos tried to reason with Alejandro, but I guess he had already made up his mind.Because all Alejandro said was "I will call Doctor Sanchez” then he began to walk away.The sudden headache that I woke up with this morning slowly started to vanish. I stood there frozen in place wondering what the fuck I was expecting to happen? Did I really think there was a chanc

    LUCIATHE NEXT DAYMy morning came with a splitting headache. A sharp pain shot through the right side of my head aggressively waking me up in groans. It felt like they were poking thousands of needles directly into my head. I sat up but I quickly laid back down when it felt like my head was going to fall off. “Augh!” I took my hand to my head, giving it a light rub.What was the sudden pain I woke up with? I was totally fine last night before I went to sleep. Although, I felt extremely weak and tired.Was that the reason? A series of thoughts ran through my head that at a point it started becoming straining to even think.Anyway, I knew I had to get up from this bed to seek help or something. My head turned to the landline by the night stand. I stood up and slowly walked over. I remembered the first day I had arrived here that Miguel had asked me to press a number to page him anytime I needed him. I stared at the landline for seconds trying to remember the exact number he talked

    ALEJANDRO The moment I left Lucia, I was back in my room glancing through paperworks, not because i wanted to but because i couldn’t get my mind off what the fuck I just did.My thoughts rallied with questions about why I did what I did. Why did I apologize to her right at that moment?I never planned to.The instant I saw her walk through the dining room and into the kitchen, all I had in mind was to question her about why she skipped dinner. But right then, when she spoke about how vulnerable she felt in that room, something in me snapped. And I let those words out. I sighed and leaned back into my reclined chair, my hand fixed to the back of my head. My eyes locked on the papers scattered on the table for a few seconds and I used my free hand to toss it away further.I knew there wasn’t anything important I was doing on there. My eyes were initially just fixed on it because I couldn't get the thought out of my head. My head slumped backwards and my eyes closed. The scene in the
