"Childhood friendships are timeless treasures of the heart."-Unknown-***Declan was doing his own mini research to figure out about Karina’s past and the reason why her brother married her because he was getting even more curious as the day passed by, therefore, during the lunch break, he went on his computer and did something he never should. Doing a background research on someone.Technically, it was unethical. The whole time, he always made sure to use that ability of his sparingly to prevent himself from getting any trouble with others. Yet this time, it was personal.As he was doing his research, he suddenly heard a knock from the door.“Come in.” He spoke calmly. The door opened and he heard a joyful scream from the outside calling his name.“Declan, I’ve missed you!” A thumping sound of heels entered the room.

"I never want to stop making memories with you."-Pierre Jeanty-***Karina never thought she would be riding on a private jet her in her entire life. The thought of it alone scared her because she knew how expensive it must be.It didn’t have to be a private jet, riding first class in most airlines could cost her around five times the average salary she used to receive. It was not something she dared to allow crossing her mind.Yet there she was, sitting in a private jet. He had rented it from one of his associate. When she confronted him about the cost, he shrugged it off and told her his friend gave him a discount as a honeymoon gift.“Just what kind of friends do you actually have?” She questioned. It was a rhetorical question but clueless Eden answered it.“They’re just normal people, I guess.” His answer made her shudder from cringe a little bit because Karina knew no

"And for once, bravery looks a lot like running away."-Kat Savage-***It was midnight and Eden had fallen asleep. They shared the same room since the huge villa only had one room. It was an island for honeymoon, so they did not have a separate room for family. Karina knew she needed to be very careful and quiet as she walked into the bathroom so it did not wake him up.Slowly, she snatched her bag which contained the passport. She took out all the devices he had given her so he could not track her later on.She sneaked into the bathroom and very quietly opened the window. Then, when she had a chance, she made a run for it and headed to the ferry. The man who was guarding the very was surprised when he saw her. Yet she quickly took a deep breath and asked him to bring her back to the main island with the airport.“Miss, I’m sure you are aware of it but it’s the middle of the night, I can’t d

"After a storm, comes a calm."-Matthew Henry-***As the sounds of wave crashing and bird chirping was heard, Karina slowly fluttered her eyes open. She had fallen into such deep slumber she found it difficult to remember what had happened the night before. It was when she turned around and looked at Eden’s face did her memory returned to her.“I failed to escape.” It was the first thought that came to her mind. She felt like crying because her desire to be free could not be fulfilled even though she made the attempt.“Am I really destined to suffer?” She wondered. As she tried to gather her energy, she recalled the memory of herself jumping into the ocean. She still remembered precisely how she gasped for breath.Her chest was hot and cold at the same time, it was as if someone pierced a thousand ice needles into her lungs. She really thought she was going to die last night. She remem

"A single rose can be my garden. A single friend, my world."-Leo Buscaglia-***“My brother, he is on a honeymoon now, isn’t he?” Declan sighed as he closed the phone. He had been trying to call his brother but he did not pick up his phone at all. The man must be busy with his wife right now and it was his right. They were married after all, but Declan couldn’t help but feel uneasy about it.As he was thinking about Karina, his phone suddenly rang and he saw Amber’s name on it. Yes, he almost forgot she was already in New Hampshire. He took the call and murmured a slow Hello when he heard her cheery voice from the other side.“Declan, I’m free for the entire day, do you want to go shopping with me?” She asked. She sounded so excited that even though Declan wasn’t feeling like it, he could not refuse her.“Okay, I’m available from four pm today. We&rs

"The best things in life are free. The second best things are expensive."-Coco Chanel-***“Is this your idea of a romantic dinner?” She asked as she walked out from the room. The staff had prepared a table outside of their room, in the patio. A selection of seafood and meat was cooked to perfection. A vase of red rose and varieties of carnation was placed in the middle to sweeten the atmosphere alongside a line of candles.She was wearing a slip dress with a warm robe cover since it was a bit windy that evening and he was wearing the same type of robe as well. They sat down and she gasped in amazement. It was probably one of the most romantic thing he had ever done for her ever since they got married and something about the way everything was arranged really set the mood.“I promised before that I would hold a romantic dinner for you. Well, here it is. Do you like it?” He asked. She nodded and was

"No matter how small, a favor deserves thanks."-Wes Fesler-***Eden couldn’t believe just how fast time flew by during his honeymoon. Whenever he was working, time seemed to pass by really slowly whenever he was working. Yet with her, every seconds passed by so fast.In the end, Eden was not able to make love to her at all during their entire trip, which made him feel a little bit disappointed, but at least she was no longer mad and upset with him.Once the arrived back home, all Eden and Karina wanted was to sleep, but as soon as they opened up their door, they saw a sight they never expected.“Ah, my nephew has arrived home.” In front of them was a woman in her mid-forties at youngest.

"Each days of our lives we make deposits in the memory bank of our children."-Charles R. Swindoll-***Karina was reading a book in her room when she suddenly heard the front bell ringing from the device installed in every room. Not long after, there was an invoice coming from her guard downstairs that there was a visitor.She closed her book and walked downstairs to see who the guests were. When she arrived in the living room, she was stunned to see a familiar short black hair with red streak.“Aunt Libel?” She asked. Lobelia turned her head around with a small smile.“Ah, Karina, I’ve told you to call me Lobelia. You and your husband are the same in this case, never listening to my name request.” She sighed slowly before standing up. As she did, Karina noticed another person in the room, it was a small boy, probably only four or five years old.He had milky white skin, dirty b

"I know now it is children who accept life. Grown people cover it up and pretend it is different with drinks."-Rumer Godden-***“Eden, this is Aunt Libel’s son, Leonardo. However, he usually goes by Leo.” She introduced the boy to Eden who still looked pissed by his existence. The boy refused to let go of Karina’s clothing and continued to hide behind her.“Leo, don’t be afraid. This is my husband, Eden. He’s your distant cousin. Why don’t you come here and greet him?” Karina suggested with a gentle voice. Leo looked terrified of Eden but still decided to take a step forward and greeted him with a simple ‘Hello’.Eden who did not really like an outsider taking all of Karina’s attention planned on scaring the boy but when Karina stared at him with a hopeful gaze, he decided to reply to the boy’s greeting.“Hello, Leo. I see you&rsqu

"Even though you're growing up you should never stop having fun."-Nina Dobrev-***“I want to go to the park.” The little boy suddenly came with such a request when Karina was accompanying him to play. She turned around and looked at him with a confused expression.It had been a few days since Leo first lived together in her place, but it was the first time he ever asked anything from her without her asking first.“Park? I don’t think there are any park around this house. You have seen it yourself, haven’t you? The mansion is surrounded by forest and it’s difficult to leave. The only option is to wait for Eden to come back home, then we can take the car to the town and find a park there.” She reasoned.Leo seemed a bit upset and disappointed when he heard it. Karina who couldn’t bear to see him so dispirited tried to cheer him up with other method.“You k
