Alyia's Point of View. "Oh, please. Stop making me cry. I might really be touched and think about sparing your lives." She said with her dramatic voice while she wipe her fake tears from her eyes. "Darling, thank you for the tissues." She added and kissed Zekiel. Are they freaking serious? "Let us go. Please, I'm begging you." My gaze was moved to Cosmos when he said those words with his weak voice. "Oh really? You're begging?" Cherry walked near him and pulled his chin up to make their gazes meet each other. "If you just accepted our offer to you the other night, you won't be here. You will be with us. We'll rise and this girl right here will soon go down." She added while still holding Cosmos' chin and looked at me with her annoyed look. "You were too blinded because of that super stupid thing called 'love' that you didn't think twice before you made your decision. Well, it's okay. Now, you two will be with each other even on your deaths." She said before releasing Cosmos from
10 years later... Cosmos' Point of View. "Your Majesty." The girl with a big basket bowed down as she give me a glass of water. "Your Majesty. I want to thank you for the potion that you gave me the other day. It really helped me and my son. We didn't have to deal with the pain on our tummies. Thank you. Your Majesty." She said and bowed again. "I just did what I think I must do as your King. I'm happy knowing that it helped you." I answered her and smiled. "The Queen is here! Bow down!" A loud shout came from someone that made me glance at the big door. There, I saw her walking towards me. My deity. She smiled at me and I can't help to smile back. "I'm sorry for being late." She said and sat down her chair that is beside me. "You just came in the right time, My Deity." I answered and made my smile wider. * * * "What are you thinking?" I heard a voice that I really know that I don't have to look back to confirm who it is. "Nothing." I said and stared at the view in front of
Alyia's Point of View. "Ma'am, you have to sign this here and this." A girl with a sweet voice explained to me that made me raise my sight to her. "I'm in the middle of a meeting, can't you see?" I said loudly that made everyone's attention go to me. "Ma'am, it's really urgent. It has been days. It's been stuck inside your drawer for days. I just took the common sense to take it out from there since the company who was asking these is being furious already." She said with her embarrassed voice as she bows down in front of me. "If it's that important then why are you just saying this to me now? Give it to me. Sometimes I really can't understand you." I said with my brows furrowed as I snatch the folder from her. "Now, get out of this building. You're fired." I added while I sign the papers she asked me to sign. I smiled at her and mouthed 'go'. I shooed her away and she just turned her back quickly. Everyone was silenced after that that made me raise a brow. "You're not here to w
Alyia's Point of View. "You know you're naturally beautiful even without those stupid things, right?" Flame suddenly said out of nowhere that made me turn my back at him while I am doing my eyeshadow."You know that I'm too old to believe those sugar-coated words of yours, right?" I said and rolled my eyes as I slightly push him that cause him to let out a chuckle. "C'mon! I'm saying the truth here!" He exclaimed at my back that made me roll my eyes. "Yeah, right." I said and continued what I am doing with my face. He kept on mumbling words saying that it's fine even if I don't wear makeup. He kept on repeating his point that is annoying me big time now. Makeup became my undercover. It makes me hide everything that I don't want the world to see. I'm tired but when I put makeup, my eyes won't show that anymore. It will just uncover it. Makeup is every woman's best friend. If you think that way, you've really become a woman. I know no one is required to put on makeup but every woma
Cosmos' Point of View. I watched the girl as she took a distance from me and closed her eyes. "Tell me when it's already done-" I was about to add up onto that sentence of mine but I was stopped when I saw a screen-like thing that made me see Alyia. Alyia with a guy. I saw that she aged. That's given. The ten years was really a long time so I expected this but I didn't expect that I will see her with a guy. A man to be exact. "Are you okay?" The guy asked her with his brows furrowed. "I want chicken wings." She said and smiled. Even if the years passed by, I still know when she's telling the truth or lying. Her eyes say it all. She may look different since the last day I last saw her but she still has those eyes. Those eyes that reflect every word she's afraid to tell everybody. "You're still a baby. Finish this interview of yours and I'll take you to your favorite restaurant. Now, go." The man answered him that made her smile and let out a sigh. "You're really the best, Flam
Alyia's Point of View. "What do you mean?" I asked him and was expecting for an answer but a man interrupted our conversation. "Sir, here's your bill." The man said and put the receipt on the table. I saw him pay and sign what he's supposed to sign. My gaze stayed at him while he does that. Why does he seem like a little weird today? I didn't get what he meant by those words he said earlier. "Thank you, Sir." The waiter said and walked away from us. I thought it would be the right time to ask him because the guy is away already so I opened my mouth and was about to ask him but then suddenly, my phone rang. "Don't you want to answer that? It might be important." He said as he wipes off bits of sauce on his face."Fine but we'll talk after this." I said and answered my phone. I didn't bother to stand up or what because there's no point in doing those. Flame can be trusted. I know that. "Ma'am Alyia, where are you? You already know our schedule for today, right?" Irene exclaime
Cosmos' Point of View. "I'm leaving." I said as I put a spoonful inside my mouth. "You're off to where?" Dana asked me and continues to eat her food. "You don't need to know." I said but I was shocked by her response. "I don't need to know but I already know." She said and stopped from whatever she's doing. "Whatever you need, it's in my room. The cabinet next to my bed." She added before standing up and walked away from me. What is she talking about? What happened yesterday made me realize that I can't just sit here and not do anything. I must do a way to find a way to bring me back to Alyia.I don't want to be a coward. I don't want to let this all go. 10 years is enough. No, 10 years is a long time. I should've done a thing to make me be at Alyia's side again but what did I do? Nothing. I just sat there, and been a coward man that I am. Whatever it takes, I'll be back on the earth and when I say whatever, it includes my crown as a King. * * * "Is the horse ready?" I aske
Alyia's Point of View. "What time is it?" I asked myself as I slowly open my eyes. I woke up because of the sunlight hitting my face. I was about to stand up and brush my teeth but I got dizzy so I decided to stay on my bed. My head has been aching since I woke up and I don't understand why. "Oh right! Last night..." I said to myself as I massage the sides of my head. "Last night?! What happened last night?!" I exclaimed when I recalled everything. Well, not everything but the last thing I knew was I was with Cosmos. I was with him last night. Was I really? "Was I really with him?" I asked myself as if it would give me answers to my questions. "You're already awake." A voice said that made me look at where it came from. "Flame! Have you seen Cosmos?! Is he still there? Wait. I'll just brush my teeth and take a shower. Tell him to wait for me, please." I said and hurried up on standing. I quickly wore my slippers and even if my sight is still unstable, I stood up and ignored i
