Why don't you want to stop us?!" Mom shouted as the two men held her in both hands "Oh come on Athena you know why, you know the reason why! It's because of this man!" the man shouted and stomped on Dad who was in a wheelchair Dad just got out of the hospital because he was involved in an accident and he is not well yet "Ahh! you still haven't changed, Ricardo, you're still the devil, why don't you fight me fairly, you know I'm weak now, so rush in!" Dad said angrily "HAHAHAHA that's life Carlos, there's no fairness in the world! now that you have nothing to do why don't I give you a show" said the man and approached Mom "You're still really beautiful, Athena, even if the edge of your lips is bleeding, if you had chosen me, I hope you wouldn't have been hurt like this" the man said and suddenly kissed Mom Mom kicked between the two legs of the man causing him to kneel "You're rude! Damn you!" Mom shouted Not long after, the man immediately stood up and punched Mom, causing her to lose consciousness then he did his evil plan to my mother, he took my Mom in front of Dad Dad struggled while being held by two men but he couldn't do anything because he was carrying something Dad shouts for the man to stop what he is doing to Mom the punches of the two men accompanied Dad's shouting Soon the man stopped and adjusted his clothes Then he turned to Dad and smiled mischievously "Now we're fair Carlos, your wife is delicious HAHAHAHA" the man said and he and his staff laughed The man returned to where Mom was and pulled out his katana "I know that no matter what I do, you will never be mine, it's better to disappear from the world!" said the man then cut off Mom's head He turned to Dad and sneered at him "I'm going to take you to impy*rno Carlos with your wife!" said the man and without a word Dad's head was also cut off I was about to scream when someone covered my mouth The man turned to where I was, what struck me when he walked towards me I just closed my eyes and held the hand covering my mouth I just calmed down when I heard him walk away from us "Boys! Congratulations we are successful!" the man said happily and finally they all left I slowly looked at the person who covered my mouth, Dad's bodyguard "P-I'm sorry little madame w-I didn't do anything but p-I'm begging you p-try to live l-safely until your l-grandfather finds you" he said before losing consciousness "W-wake up p-po" I said and shook him slightly, I was surprised by a red liquid that flowed from his side I approached my parents and suddenly ................. "Keith! Keith! what the hell is giving you nightmares again!" Aiki said while shaking me I got up while catching my breath "Is it that dream again?" Regie asked I took a deep breath and nodded in response "Here drink this" said Aiki as he held out a glass of water " Are you sure you don't know the people you dream about? Since we were little, you always dreamed of that, isn't it connected to your personality?" asked Regie "I don't know either, I don't know anything" was my only answer while calming myself down Why do I always have nightmares? Who are those people? why do I call them Mom and Dad as far as I know I don't have parents How long should I dream about it?

She was assigned as his psychologist. the aggressive Zero Elton Seviller can only be tamed by Astraea Alora Hera. Her... Just her. Will Alora be able to cure him? Astraea POV A few years ago I had an accident and lost my memory. now I will work as a psychologist. 1 month ago I graduated from L.U and was assigned to this hospital. I'm just a beginner so I'm still adjusting. So far so good, my colleagues here are kind. I just got rid of my patient who was a victim of r*pe, calming her down and giving her advices, she is slowly getting better compared to when she first came here she was miserable and troubled now she is talking to me and other people here . Today a new patient is coming. I wonder who it will be. Anyway, I was about to go to my office when I heard someone break and scream so I immediately went to it, I saw a familiar person. Did we meet? But wait did he disappear? he was with a lot of guards with him and his hands were handcuffed. He kept looking like a criminal. He was still struggling. He has that intimidating but gorgeous face that every woman could d13 for. I admit it, he's handsome. Doesn't it look like she's too attractive to be taken to a mental hospital? What did he do to bring it here? He's tall, handsome, big built and deep voice exactly like my type-- what am I talking about? "Leave me alone you bvllsh*its" He shouted and struggled. I just saw him here, he seems to be the new patient we are talking about coming here. That person is brave. It will definitely be difficult for the one who will be assigned to be his psychologist. He's handsome and aggressive. when he suddenly looked at me, our eyes met, his gaze was terrifying as if he had seen what he had been dreaming and looking for for a long time. I just looked away and walked to my office because I had to talk to someone important. When I came to my office, I saw a woman, she was beautiful, white and looked like she was in her mid 20's, she stood up when she saw me. "Are you Ms. Amanda Seviller?" He nodded and sat down where he was sitting earlier. I sat in my swivel chair and started Kona "What do you mean?" I will ask. "You... I mean you Ms. Hera." I was surprised by what he said. "What do you mean?" "I need you Ms. Hera, No... My brother needs you. Can you be his personal psychologist?" He begged for it. "What are you saying, if I'm one of you, just look for someone else, there are many good ones out there, why am I still there?" It's weird because it's too much. "As long as you have to do is take care of my brother, I will pay you big, big big. no matter how much you pay, how much do you want 500 thousand? 1 million? Name it. I heard that when you save money, you want to travel. Don't you want it? Your job will be simple, you should always be by your brother's side. Deal or no deal? Think carefully Ms. Hera." when he convinces me. I thought about it. Maybe he really loves his older brother, right? "Fine...Deal. Who is your brother? What's he like?" I will ask. It's like we have an idea who will take care of me, right? "Ah my brother? He's the one who just arrived earlier." I was shocked by what he said. Huh!? "What?!" I screamed. Does he mean the one that disappeared earlier? What trouble did you get yourself into, Astraea? Someone's POV The guards escorted me to this fckg mental hospital because I'm crazy... crazy for her. i saw a familiar figure from afar. Finally. "Found you." I whispered to myself with a smirk. How I miss her, She's still as gorgeous as ever. I badly want to hug her but these useless bvllsh*t guards are stopping me. You have a day with me too. "Arghh get off me you b@st*rds if I ever escape here I'll k*ll every one of you. Mark my words."

"Allen, get over it. You can shoot with me later!" I screamed loudly. It looked at me but quickly avoided it. I can still see him shaking his head. I heard the laughter of the students I was with today in the Basketball gym. although that was shouted against my will, I could not do anything. My pocket depends on it for a week. I didn't pay attention to the few people who were close to me who almost became flies in my ears. I saw the grin of my female best friend, who was now sitting where the other players of our school's Basketball team were sitting. She can sit there because she is the girlfriend of Jackson, who is the Captain of our team who is a friend of 'Ace' Allen. I could see him from where I was sitting because our team was on the other side. Here I sit in the part where our team's opponent is. 'It's like looking at my damn best friend.' I was stunned when the referee blew his whistle. I didn't realize that I had been staring at my best friend for so long and was no longer focused on the game. "THREE POINTS FOR GOMEZ!" the Announcer shouted. A loud scream erupted inside the gym. I looked at the score board for a moment. 78-54. Only our team. "WHOO! YOU ARE GOOD MY BABY. YOU'LL GIVE ME THREE KISSES LATER TOO!" Another shame came out of my mouth. I looked at my good best friend, who almost fell out of his seat because of laughter. I noticed Allen glancing at me but he also quickly returned his gaze to the person watching over him when our eyes met. The ball was theirs again, in an instant he grabbed it. Awesome! It dribbles the ball. I saw a small smile on his lips. Don't get excited. Just dare.' I glanced at the paper I was holding. Everything I'm going to shout when Allen shoots is written here. "THREE POINTS FOR GOMEZ!" 'L*nghiy* why is it coming from?!' I blew out air before shouting what was written on the paper. "LET'S GO, BABY. THREE ROUNDS LATER." The basketball gym roared with laughter from the students. My good best friend also fell off the chair. Jackson gave him a worried look, but my good friend didn't seem to mind and returned to his seat. The suppression of laughter is still evident here. 'I wish you would fart!' I never thought that an introvert like me could do this just for money. Kelly is holding my money that I have saved from working part-time jobs. He forcibly took my money from me and threatened that if I didn't do his dare, it would rot in his hands. Kelly is rich, so I know he won't touch it because it's just a coin to him. Also, even though that girl likes to tease me, she is not that kind of person. He said he just wants me to have a love life because I'm getting old. Even though I'm only 17. mom even lets me play. He also said he wanted Allen for him because he said he had no girlfriend since birth. Even the lips are said to be fresh. 'L*nghh girl. How rude!' The referee whistled to signal a short time out. I glanced at the score board again. we are still alone and only four minutes left. It looks like another win again for the school basketball team. I wish! 'My Baby can do that, I mean Allen.' The referee blew his whistle again. The players of both teams went to the middle of the court at the same time. The opponent has the ball. I stared hard and barely blinked at what Allen was watching. Mud! His big man, I mean his body is so wide that it's like he's not in high school. They are the same height as Allen but his body is really different. Allen isn't thin, his body is just right and he's wide, but not as wide as the person he's guarding. 'It's like the body of the bouncer is double the body of the person he's guarding.' I gasped when it hit Allen's shoulder, but Allen didn't even fall even though I knew it was too strong. I don't know if the man could have done that because the referee didn't kick him. And I don't even know anything about the game of basketball. the man couldn't get away from Allen no matter what he did so he was caught because he held the ball for so long. His eyes were sharp and angry looking at Allen. I felt nervous when his angry eyes landed on me. I pinched my left leg because of fear. My eyes moved around as if looking for something. It stopped right in the eyes of Allen who was also looking at me now. My eyes narrowed when he mouthed 'I'll protect you' which messed up my brain. 'Why would he do that for me?' I looked away from it and it landed on my best friend who now had a big smile on his lips. 'Another weird one!' The game resumed, and as expected, our basketball team won. I was about to leave because I was too embarrassed but the mic made a noise that hurt the ears of the students present. My eyes searched for Kelly, she was in the middle and she was holding the mic. He looked at me with a smile on his lips. 'Mud! what nonsense is he going to do again?!' "May I have your attention, please?" he began. "That girl." This taught me that the students immediately turned to my place.

"Sister, don't forget to call?" said Celestine holding back tears while we were outside our rented house. Behind me are my things packed up inside a huge suitcase. "Is everything you need already there? Have you checked the vitamins? Your hot compress? toothbrush? Hygiene kit—" I laughed, interrupting mom. "Yes, mom, everyone is here. Don't worry too much about me." Mama and I stared at each other and there were traces of tears in her eyes. because his eyes are red and starting to water. They are getting extra emotional now because this is the first time I will be away from them for so long. I will have to stay in with the new job that I will start, that's why my family is so emotional. "B-just don't forget to call," mom's voice trembled. I bit my bottom lip to stop myself from crying. I promised myself that I wouldn't cry today because I wanted to leave in peace. I don't want them to worry about me and maybe they won't let me go by chance. "Yes, mom. I'll always call." "Sister, I'll miss you," Celestine added before hugging me tightly. She's my younger sister and currently studying in college. I'm six years older than him and he'll be able to graduate from college in just a little while, at least it'll help us, but since I'm the one who's teaching him now, I'll really need this job. "Be careful, Seia?" mom caressed my arm. I smiled bitterly before kissing them. When we parted, mom even combed my hair as if she was still thinking about whether to let me go or not. "Just tell dad I'm leaving," my voice started to tremble. dad was there inside the house, sulking at me. If there was one of us who was not in favor of my decision to work remotely it was none other than dad. First of all, it was not acceptable for me to stop studying and work as a maid. He said he didn't study me just to be an assistant and it hurt for him to see that. I told my dad that I need to save up somehow because he doesn't earn enough from driving the jeep for Celestine and me. I understand him but I also just want to help our family. "I'll take care of your dad, Seia. He'll understand too," mama said understandingly before kissing me on the cheek. "We love you so much son." I didn't delay saying goodbye to the family because I might end up deciding not to leave. So when I got in the car to pick me up, I cried silently inside. Our trip took several hours until we finally arrived in Manila. I fell asleep in the middle of our flight and when I woke up I noticed that our car had stopped in front of a big and very elegant house. "Wow!" I unconsciously uttered as I looked up at the three storey modern house. I glanced at the driver when I saw that the gate had opened and it looked like he was about to enter the car. "Brother, is this where I will work?" He looked at me in the rearview mirror. "Yes, here we are." My brother maneuvered your car for a while until we stopped inside. He even opened the door for me while I was still unable to move my eyes around. I got out of the car and helped Kuya to put down my things one by one. "This house is big, brother," I said to the driver. Some men also came out and talked to the driver who took me. "Miss, we'll take you inside," he said after putting down my things. "Yes, okay," I answered then started to follow them. my eyes kept on wondering around. The house is undeniably luxurious and huge! I feel like I'm going to get lost here for a few days. "Sir Jax is still at work but he's on his way home," Kuya said as we entered the entrance. I really can't stop myself from being amazed at every hallway we pass. "I'm Sebastian, but just call me Baste. I'm Sir Jax's personal driver." "Uh, I'm Sefia Bianca. Seia for short," I introduced myself. The man who I think was in his forties smiled at me and then we continued walking inside. We stopped for a moment when we finally entered the house. I can't help but be excited and nervous at the same time. because the house was so hot, I was afraid to step on the marble floor because it might get dirty. You can see almost a mirror there, so it's really scary to move. I feel that with a little movement I can be there in no time. "Seia, I'm going to take you to your room first," Kuya Baste turned to me after talking to a few boys. I just noticed that there didn't seem to be any other maids acting there besides them. I didn't see any other women there besides me. "S-go ahead." "Because Sir Jax told me not to bring Lily near you until she gets home," he said, making my lips part. "Okay, no problem," I replied carefully. "Is Lily the child I'm going to take care of?" He nodded then smiled again. "Yes, son of Sir Jax." "How old is he?" "The child is six years old," he answered then motioned for me to walk again. "Here we are." I immediately followed it when it went up to the second floor of the house. "Ah Kuya Baste, I just want to ask," I said and hesitated to ask while following it. "Uh, why don't I see any other maids here? Am I the only one doin

Sequel to chasing my estranged wife; I want you back. ******** " You promised me!'' I screamed.

Looking at the divorce papers my lips curled up into a mocking smile. 'How big fool I am? How can I think that he will give a chance to this marriage? How can I forget that I was nothing more a tool in his eyes to vent his anger until his beloved Tara is back. Since, she was back, how can he let me stay there?'
