The following days, Zren had already lost her interest in roaming around the cruise ship. Thinking that she might encounter those annoying people, she just decided to stay in her room and enjoy the peaceful and undisturbed atmosphere. She spent her days enjoying her me time without any presence of people who do nothing but cause endless troubles here and there. “Finally, it’s time to go home!” Zren happily exclaimed. She pulled her luggage with enthusiasm as she followed the flow of people who were also going the same way as her. The thought that she would finally be able to go home after experiencing those endless troubles and lay on her bed without thinking of any of those people. Together with her luggage, Zren followed the person that Louzvent had sent to guide her where the car that the old man prepared in advance for her to use to drive back home as per what she requested before she left. Originally Louzvent suggested that he would send a person to pick her up from the port,
“You think? What do you mean?” Yashi asked, confused. Zren once again let out a deep sigh before starting to explain everything that she encountered hoping that Yashi could give some advice to her, because ever since then Yashi was the only person who always helped to solve her problems. It was so funny how Zren’s work was to help her clients overcome their problems, however, when it comes to her own she had no idea what to do. Helping other people was her forte but when it comes to herself, her brain looked like a balloon, empty and full of air, floating anywhere without a certain direction. “I met a man who was Celestine’s ex-boyfriend, the one she dated ten years ago. Their relationship’s timeline matched around the twin’s existence. At first, when I discovered that piece of info, I already assumed that he was their father.” Zren paused for a second before she continued, “But someone told me, the reason why they broke up was because Celestine cheated and at that time there was
Zren ended the call and threw her phone on the passenger seat. The smile on her lips remained, making her expression even brighter. What a good news to start the day. “Ma, you’re smiling! What happened?” Xhyne curiously asked in the back seat. Zren gave him a quick glance and answered with curved eyes, “Let’s just say, I’m having a good time playing some game with someone, haha!” “Game? What kind of game?” Zhen, who didn’t seem interested earlier, overheard their conversation which ignited his curiosity.“It’s called, ‘Go with the flow’ game.” “It sounds boring,” Zhen honestly commented and went back to reading his book. “Yeah, it really is.” Xhyne immediately lost interest and just slouched in his seat. He just decided to look outside the window to kill his boredom. “You guys are the boring ones!” Zren sneered at them. When they arrived at the school, Zren dropped the twins off and bid them goodbye before driving off to work. The moment she arrived at the firm, Zren just put
“So what if I am?” Zren heard Weidon’s calm tone through the phone call. The same calm tone that always made her blood boil whenever she heard it, reaching each blood cell in her body to feel stress. “Ahhh! D*mn you!” Zren shouted with immense anger as she hung up the call. Talking to that man was equally enough to feel the amount of stress she experienced throughout her entire twenty-eight years of her lifetime. That man!!!!! I hate him!!!! Zren was in the middle of cursing Weidon in every possible way when the door of her office opened. Her secretary was standing there holding the doorknob, looking in her direction. “What?!” Zren impatiently asked. “Someone came here, that person said he will wait for you in the same spot.” After Vin spoke those words he immediately closed the door without even waiting for his boss’ response. Before walking back to his work spot. He glanced at the door and couldn’t help but shook his head. “What’s wrong this time? She was pissed early in the mo
For most of the people, this day was just another boring and ordinary day like the rest.However, to the group of people inside of Weidon’s office, it was a whole different story.Saven walked towards the door and opened it. She was welcomed by a guy holding an extremely huge box with him, covering half of his body.“What the heck is this?” Saven asked in a puzzled voice, her expression was very confused. Just by looking at the huge box in front of her, she was already sure that this wasn’t the thing she was waiting for.Cruel, whose face was hidden behind the box, rolled his eyes feeling impatient but still answered professionally while still carrying his act, “A special delivery for Mr. Weidon Galcon.”When they heard Weidon’s name as the recipient, everyone was even more confused.Even Weidon himself was baffled when he heard his own name. He walked to the door and asked, “Who sent it?”Shit.Cruel silently cursed inside his mind as he slowly shut his eyes.He’s doomed!Schent neve
Zren leaned on the back of her chair and put both of her feet on the table. She played with the pen on one hand and used the other to hold her phone.“So you guys finally know the truth. Finally.”“How did you know?” Weidon replied with a question.Zren smiled and looked outside where she could see the small-looking building of Weidon’s company from her point of view.“Why don’t you guess? I don’t think you need a clue, I know you’re smart enough to figure it out.”The moment Zren let go of those words, Weidon’s gaze automatically fell on the flash drive plugged into the laptop. He took it out and sure enough, there was a small device plastered on it.Saven was about to curse when Zren spoke again.“I already proved my identity. I am not Celestine so let’s stop this hatred thingy. I don’t know you, you don’t know me. End of discussion.”Zren was about to end the call when she remembered something.“Anyway, Elcid, let’s just meet some other time, I have something to do later.”She swor
A child’s frustrated scream echoed throughout the hallway as two kids who exactly looked like each other exited the bathroom, running in Zren’s direction.One was wearing a grumpy expression, his eyebrows met with each other as he threw a sharp glare at the boy who exactly looked like him.“He kept interrupting me to pee! I hate him! He kept banging the door even though he knew I was inside!” Zhen aggrievedly told his mom about Xhyne’s annoying tricks. He buried his head in Zren's stomach to hide his teary eyes.“Hehe, s-so are you still able to pee?” Zren asked pretending that everything was fine while trying to look calm. Even though right now her heart was thumping like a wild boar inside her ribcage. She was freaking nervous!Meeting Weidon here was the last thing she ever expected!This damn destiny was really messing with her.Zren pulled the twins near her and squeezed their hands to comfort herself. She looked at Weidon whose expression was unexplainable.His eyes were glued t
When they reached their home, Zren accompanied the twins until they fell asleep, making sure that they were okay.After she confirmed that the two were already fast asleep. She exited the room and went downstairs.The lights were already off so the whole house was dark and silent. Only the dim light from the moon that pierced through the cracks of the curtains slightly lit up the place.When she reached her destination which was the kitchen, Zren didn't turn on the lights, instead, she used her phone's flashlight as a guide.She then opened the fridge and took out several cans of flavored liquor and some chips from the cupboard.Placing the things she just gathered on the counter and sit beside them, Zren opened a can of beer and the packaging of the chips.In the depth of darkness, Zren stared at nothing, she just silently continued to eat and drink with an uncaring blank expression.Her mind was full of thoughts, both good and bad. They confused and fogged her clear mind making her
