The madam of the villa immediately avoided eye contact. “Humph! You still got the nerve to ask that. Your dad almost felt ill because of anger. It’s been a long time since I saw him so angry. Anyway, make sure to speak nicely when you see him later. And don’t even think about starting a quarrel with him.” Mr. Buenavista changed everything in Ares’ life since his dad died of sickness. He is the best thing that ever happened to him. Without Mr. Buenavista, he would be going nowhere in his life. His life was starting to go down the drain before Mr. Buenavista came into their family. Mr. Buenavista has and always will be a role model in Ares’ life and a goal to strive for. Mr. Buenavista has done many things to help mold him into the man he is today. “I got it, mom. I know what I am doing.” Ares said, trying to calm his mom. They slowly opened the door and headed to the living room. A man holding a newspaper is comfortably seated on the sofa. Achilles-gold in color, his hair was perfec

KIAI feel heavy. How long did I… sleep? The fragrance of hospital disinfectant invaded my nose as I awoke. The bleach stench was overpowering. The brilliant light that was peeking through my closed eyelids caused me to squint. I felt heavy and helpless. My head, my body, and my hands were all immobile. Aside from my loud breathing and the beep beep sound you frequently hear in hospitals to let you know you're alive, the room was completely silent. I gently opened my eyes, squinting to try to make the hazy sights in front of me more clear. I cast a quick glance around and noticed the empty hospital room with its blue and white decor.Where am I? As the blinding light slowly subsided, I could take a look around my surroundings. I was at the hospital. The space was spotless, tidy, and dismal. A typical hospital bed, an IV, and beeping monitors. The linens were grayish, and the walls were a sickening shade of green. Nothing in the setting suggested that a patient would be inspired to i

Ares is headed home. He is kind of in a hurry to get home because he is worried about his wife. He was speeding, and when he arrived, he immediately went inside and turned on the lights.“Hon, I’m back—” Ares saw his wife sleeping on the couch. “Sillygirl... She does not worry about catching a cold,” Ares said, and he removed his coat to make it a blanket for Kianna. He gave her a kiss before heading to the bathroom. While Ares is taking a bathroom break, Kianna suddenly wakes up to the sound of water dripping. She slowly opened her eyes and observed her environment. …There is the sound of someone taking a bath in the bathroom. Is Ares back?....“Hon— Oh, what is this? — Eh? A coat?” Kianna grabbed the coat and a smile slowly flash on her face.…He is worried that I will catch a cold…Kianna hugged the coat and smelled it. She was stunned when she smelt something different from Ares’ coat. “This can’t be our fabric conditioner… It smells something different… Something like—a girl’s

“Hey! Since just now, you have been ignoring what I have to say. What exactly do you need? — Will you all please hold it! Are you even paying attention to what I'm saying? — I will bring you back to where you came from, or your friend Miaree will kill me. — Oh, my God! I was wrong the last time, you know. I am sorry! I am aware that the previous time I was an idiot. The only reason I did that was to get my parents to stop pressuring me to marry someone I didn't care about. I, I'm Really Sorry! Nate remarked as he trailed behind Kianna. “Hey! I am sorry that I have already said it to you. Why do you continue to disregard what I say? — Hey, I'm to blame for this. Okay? I had no idea that my followers would get so insane that they would assault you, which may land you in trouble... Come on, just tell me what I need to do to make it up to you. Come on, just tell me. Added by Nate.Kianna came to a stop and confronted Nate. There is a hint of a smile on her face, and it would appear that s

KIAWhile I waited there waiting for the bus, the brisk, chilly wind rushed by me. I wanted to get away from Ares at home, so I purposefully arrived home late today. Since Miaree and Marcy were unable to join me for dinner, I went to a restaurant close to our university by myself and had supper there. It is already rather late; I wonder if he made it home safely...I cautiously opened the door, only to discover to my astonishment that no one was there. He predicted that he would be tardy tonight. How long will he be staying late tonight to finish his work? After I had entered our home, I positioned my bag on the couch. I made the decision to start making dinner for us as I waited for him this evening. I just had the thought that maybe he would be really exhausted later, in which case it would be too cruel of me to not make anything for him to eat or drink.I hurried into the kitchen and promptly began preparing a late meal for him. I was so focused on the meal that I lost track of th
