Two week ago a ghost came back to haunt Andrea of a thing she did five years ago. She thought she had won and buried that woman but just recently, news travels to her from Jennie that Stella is indeed back.Andrea has been suspicious for the past days that Charles is chasing Stella. She is being disregarded and recently Charles’ office has been empty of him. Only Dimitri was there. She can’t even get a hold of him anymore especially on calls.For five years, she could not make Charles look her way anymore. He was always gazing at the window.“Is the president in his office today?” she asked her workmates.“The president should be here since today is the grand investors’ meeting,” one of them answered.“What time is that meeting again?”“It should be ending soon.”She plasters a sweet smile and took a thick pile of paper. It wasn’t something she had a problem with, she just really wanted to go see him.So, Andrea rushed outside with her paper. On her way, she was bouncing and humming b

Once the meeting was over, Stella decided to talk to Jenkins about that part. Everything happened so suddenly that she is as shocked as Charles.“Jenkins, that meeting. What was it about?” she asked, standing in front of the young man’s desk.“For our new product,” Jenkins answered.“No, that’s not what I am talking about, Jenkins.” She narrowed her eyes at him. “I’m talking about why? I didn’t know you had an agreement with the rest of the Castigado.”“I want you back, Stella.”Almost immediately Stella’s brows draw together. Questions started clouding her mind and before she could think of an answer, Jenkins spoke again.“I know you were awake when Charles last visited here. You just didn’t want to go on the hassle of arguing with him.”“So what if you are right? What’s this meeting have to do with that?”

Stella and Charles finally arrived in Osoda. There was only one Fugawa who was kind enough to take them to the center of that small island. His name is Kepa and he was kind enough to give them a ride with his tricycle.“You know, many tourist come here to buy small pieces of the silk,” Kepa said. “But if you are here for a much more than just a piece, you better leave our town. The elders will not allow that.”“What if we are here for that matter?” Charles asked Kepa. And the man laughed loudly.“Then good luck, sir! The elders will shoo you away and you’ll be sent home in no time!”Stella who is listening to Kepa noticed the accent. It was familiar to her, her grandmother, she was sure, spoke their language and told her about the Fugawas.As they road the bumpy way, she looks around, thoroughly fascinated by the landscape it has. She is reminded of the island they lived on but this place, Osoda

That very next day, Stella woke up alone in bed. She stretched and sit up, wondering where Charles would be. He was drunk last night, shouldn’t he be having a hangover. But then again, some people don’t get hangovers.Stella got off the bed and realized her laptop was still on the small table. She didn’t even have the time to close it last night and she bet its battery is drained. With that in mind, she walked there and checked. She wasn’t wrong at all.After putting her laptop on charge, Stella fixed her hair and decided to go out of their hut. The sun was shining but it was not hot at all. Since she needed to eat for breakfast, she decided to go all the way to where Kepa said was the dining area. It’s the eatery.Along the way, the kids from yesterday were playing another game. Fugawas really does wake up early. When the kids noticed her, she was told to join but she decline because she has to eat breakfast and find Charles, of course.When she was near the eatery, she sees Charles.

Back in Akane, Casper in his room stays wide awake even though it’s past midnight. He was just staring at his ceiling filled with different sizes of glow in the dark stars. He designed them himself but it didn’t make him happy.He wonders if he believed in shooting stars, does that make him a normal boy? If he wished to them, will his wishes come true?Actually, there’s only one wish that he wanted so bad to come true. It’s to meet his father. He tries to keep it a secret from Stella because he loves her mother and he knows the pain she goes to everyday.Tomorrow, if his uncle Jenkins’ plan went out fine, he will be able to meet his father in the airport. But if it failed, then tomorrow, it is Stella that he will come get at the airport.He doesn’t mind to be kept as a secret to everyone just not to his father.***The very next day, Casper was let down when he was told by Amunie not to get out of the car and just wait for Stella in the car. Casper didn’t have a choice and watch in the
