As he leaned closer to her wanting to kiss her lips. Athena turns her face to the side. She closed her eyes tightly as his hand still on her breast."Let go of me, and I'll tell you." She finally gives up."How would I know if you were telling me the truth?" he asks and kisses her nape softly."You're about to rape me. Do you think I will tell you lies? What's the point telling you lies in this situation right now?" she asks him back.Asher looks up to her and smiles proudly with his winning.Release her hands and legs, Athena immediately covers up her body with the comforter.Asher went to the dressing room and, find her another nightgown."Here. I will replace the one I tore up with the new one later." Asher passes the nightgown he chooses for her.Athena took the nightgown, and Asher turns his body around to let her change her clothes."It's late now. Can I just tell you tomorrow?" She said and, turn on the bedside lamp."No, can't do. What if you run away when I let my guard down?"
"Athena! Athena!"Asher's voice was so slow, and it sounded so distant too. She tries to open her eyes, but it was so heavy."It's okay, Ash...We take over from here. You wait at the outside, okay?”'That's daddy's voice.' she wants to speak up, but her throat feels so dry, and it's hurt too."Doctor, please do anything to save my daughter."She could feel the touches from the doctor and a few others' hands. After a few minutes of silence, and she only hears a steel clinking and machine sound, she could listen to the doctor start to scream, not after that."Mr. Lee! Mr. Lee! Your daughter! Your daughter's blood!""Oh my god, what is this now? How come it turns out to be like this?" her father’s voice a bit shook, and she could sense that her father was so worried and stress."Doctor! Look!" another voice starts to scream."This is not good. Wrap the patient up immediately!""Hurry! Don't let a single drop of her blood coming out from her body!"That's the last line she heard before she
Asher's heartbeat starts racing again. The last information she tells him makes him feels…sad…regret...and the feeling of guilt.If only that day, he met her on time or earlier, all of this will not happen to her. She wouldn't have to suffer this. Is this the reason why she refuses him the last time? She was hurt because of my lateness?"Hey...Say something.." Athena back to her seat and divert her eyes to the huge television in the living hall. Continue to watch the anime."I need to do something. I will return back once I have done." Asher stood up and went to the bedroom on the first floor.Athena didn't say anything. She also moves to the living room. She just watched him going up, and then a few minutes later, he went down, ready to go."I'll be leaving now." He went to her on the couch as he bent his body a little and kiss her on the forehead."Bye."Athena was dumbfounded a moment. She blinks her eyes a few times. 'Huh? That was fast for him to change his attitude.'Ignoring the
Athena finishes up the last touch-up before she returns to the main house. Just after the glass room went down, suddenly, her entrance door was opened by Asher.It makes Athena startle at the front of the sliding glass door."What are you doing?" Asher walks to the living room and loosens his tie. He also brings a big suitcase with him.Turned her body around, she facing him. "Nothing. Enjoying the sundown." she gives an excuse before she’s smiling.Look at her shabby and messy shirt make him lift up his eyebrow."Are you playing with the mud or the paint?" he asks as his eyes still fixed on her shirt.Athena gasp a bit. Yup, she forgot that she still wears her baggy work shirt. She covers her expression by smiling and look at her own clothes."This is too plain, I was boring, and I decided to paint my shirt to be like this. Looks natural, right?" Athena giggles.Asher didn't reply to her. He just 'hmm' and went upstairs.Athena went to the kitchen and find something to cook. She's dif
After dinner, Aurora went upstairs and took a bath. While Kinslee still in the living room. He took out his wallet and counted the money on it."Hmm..just enough until the end of the month. Hopefully, that monster didn't eat much," Kinslee mumbles. Close the wallet, he leaned his head on the couch.He remembers when he was still a kid. He heard a rustling sound from the cornfield his grandfather have. He went to check on it.When he flipped the corn leaves, he was punched by this one girl on the face. He cries because it was hurt, and his nose starts to bleed.When he wants to run back to his house, but the girl grabs his hand and even covered his mouth with her palm, whispering."Don't run! And shut up, or I'll punch you again." she threatens him.Because he was afraid, he nodded. He then looks at the girl beside the one who held him down. The girl's expression is like she was sorry for him. She rummages inside her sling pink bag and gives him a handkerchief to wipe his blood.The gir
The next day, Aurora wakes up after 10 am. She washed up her face and went down to the kitchen.She looks at the table; there is a sandwich, wrapping with a wrapping plastic on the table with a note under it."You're late! Clean up the house, wash the dish, do the laundry, and prepare me dinner. Learn how to cook!" There is also an angry emoji he draws at the bottom of the notes.She chuckles and takes the sandwich before she unwraps it. She went to the living room and turn on the television; press the button up and down, she sighs. It is only available with five-channel. What era is this?? She screams inwardly.Finish her breakfast, she went to find the vacuum and cleaning tools like-robot around the house. After 10 minutes of searching, she gives up. She goes to the kitchen and found an old broomstick with a feather duster.Take the feather duster, she starts to sweep the dust on the furniture. As she cleans the dust, she keeps sneezing. She then throws the feather duster to the floo
In the I-stone Property building,"Thank you so much, Mr. Asher." Chiang Zi, one of the famous architects, extended his hand to him.Shake his hand, Asher nod and said. "I'll be looking forward to the result. Nice to be working with you."Chiang Zi smile contently. When he walked with Asher to the lobby, he suddenly remembers something and said to him."I heard you are one of the fans of Nike's art. If I'm not wrong, tomorrow, there's an art exhibition exclusively for Nike's fan.""Really? Where's the exhibition held?" he asks, interested."National Art Gallery, at the center of the city." Both of them stop at the lobby entrance."Thanks for the info, though." Asher smiles and pats his shoulder before he gets into his car and drives off from the building.While in his car, he gets a call from Hye Jin."Ash!! Guess what?" She shrieks happily on the line."Whoa! Slow down, girl. You gonna make me deaf with your high pitch voice." Asher said, and Hyejin giggles before Asher ask again, "So
After Asher was far from their sight, Hyejin turns to face Athena. She smiles and holds Athena's hand to sit back at the rock."Athena..how are you?" she asks."Mm, I'm good.""Athena, here is the thing that I think you should know. I like Asher. And so is he. We both..erm…you know.." she said shyly. The gesture she makes showing that she was really in love.Athena is still silent."I know he likes to befriend you, but if possible..could you..not..to close with him?" She looks at Athena with a bit of a sad expression."I know it sounds so selfish.. but..he's been with me for so long. He didn't say anything to you; maybe he was afraid that you might tell your daddy and make him go back to his family. So that's why he always treat you so nicely."Athena stares at the white sand.'I know my status will always haunt me as everyone always feel afraid of my background once they knew. So, is that the reason why he so nice to me? But why did he had that kind of eyes every time he was looking a
