Chapter 1

It's been 10 years since he knew her. And in that span of time, how he wished to see her again but time didn't allow it. And now, the girl he's been wanting to see is only a few meters away from him. Will she remember him after what happened to him and her sister back in highschool? She didn't change at all but became more beautiful and attractive than before.

Kairo, Kylo, and Buster were looking at their friend who was in dazed, holding the resume of their new found secretary. "What happened to him?" Kairo asked looking at Kylo and Buster pointing at Kenzo but the two men only shrugged their shoulders.

"Bro!" Kylo called Kenzo. "Yes? What are you saying?" Kenzo was brought back to his senses when he heard his friend's voice. The three men laughed at their friend. Kenzo creased his forehead.

"We're asking you if she met your qualifications? We've chose her from the rest because we thought that she deserved the position." Buster said. "Besides, bro, she's really a beauty and WOW for her..." Kairo said winking at Kenzo. Kylo and Buster shaked their heads because of Kairo's pervert thoughts.

"Don't dare to include her on your women's list, Kai!" Kenzo said seriously. "Woah, what's that for?" Kairo was shocked on Kenzo's sudden burst. Kylo and Buster also looked at Kenzo with questioning stares. Kenzo sighed deeply.

"She was my ex-girlfriend's sister back in highschool. Originally, I planned to court her but instead, I had a relationship with her sister." Kenzo said and his three friends creased their forehead. "Her sister had given me an aphrodisiac drug the night of our graduation ball and of course, we did the deed." Kenzo continued. His friends wanted to comment but they didn't because they wanted to hear the rest of the story.

"Since I was also responsible for it, we became a couple. At first, it was smooth sailing relationship but as we go on, it became a bumpy road. We broke up, then, after sometime, they both transferred to a different school and from then on, I had no contact with them." Kenzo said continuously.

"So, what's your plan now?" Kylo asked. "Let's hire her. I will cross the bridge when I get there." Kenzo said. "Just remember, Sapphire is your present and she's expecting that she'll be your future." Kairo said. "I know." Kenzo said and sighed.

"Good morning, sweety!"  Yara said while giving her niece small kisses to make her wake up. The child didn't move but Yara saw that she's smiling. She then started tickling the child.

"Mommy, hahaha, stop, stop. I'm awake, I'm awake, hahaha." Dream said while trying to stop her Aunt's hands. Yara stopped and gave another kiss to her niece.

"Come, Mooma is waiting. She cooked your favorite ham and bacon rice." Yara said and Dream hurriedly stood up and went inside the comfort room to clean up.

"Let's go, Mommy!" Dream said. Yara raised her brow. "You're forgetting something." Yara said and Dream immediately stood infront of a picture placed in the wall of her room. "Good morning, Mama. I love you." Dream said that made Yara smiled.

"It's been 10 years, Big Sister. She's growing too fast. I hope I'm doing a great job being her second mom. I miss you so much. Give daddy a big hug from me." Yara said.

Yara's father died when they we're still in elementary. Her sister and Dream's mother, Yvette, died after giving birth to Dream. Since then, she and her mother did their best to take care of Dream. When Dream was starting to understand things, they finally informed her about Yvette. But Dream didn't know who was her father. Only Yara and her mother, Emma, knew who the jerk was.

"Good morning, Mooma!" Dream said and gave a kiss to her grandma. "Good morning too, my baby." Emma said smiling. Because it was Saturday, Dream is not going to school, instead, she will help her grandma at their grocery store.

Every Saturday and Sunday, Dream would help Emma in selling their goods. Yara and Emma have found a beautiful space for their grocery store. It was situated near offices that's why it gained customers from different fields. At first, it was only a general merchandise but because their customers wished for meals, they granted it.

"Behave while you're with Mooma. Our cashier told me that you were very talkative even to strangers." Yara said scolding Dream. "They aren't strangers, Mommy, they are consumers." Dream said while munching her breakfast. "And I'm only assisting them on their needs. They only want to buy lunch but because I told them that our desserts are very delicious, they also bought it." Dream continued. "Just be careful to whom you are talking to. Don't trust everyone, ok?" Yara said and Dream

nodded.

"Are you going back to Abstract Worx?" Emma asked her daughter. "The Engineer and the Interior Designer told me that they will call me if their Head Engineer will allow me to work there as her new personal secretary." Yara said. "But they are all men. You resigned to your work before because of them, what if, it happened again?" Emma asked worriedly. "Abstract Worx is a known Engineering Firm of the country. And I think the men there are well-educated. Don't worry, Mom, you know, I can take care pf myself." Yara said and her mom nodded.

Emma and Dream left the house to go to their store. Yara was done cleaning the house and was about to do their laundry when her phone rang.

"Good morning! Is this Yara Gomez?" Kairo said over the phone. "Yes, Sir, who's this, please?" Yara asked curiously. "I'm Engineer Kairo from Abstract Worx. Are you free today? Can you come here for your orientation?" Kairo asked. When he heard the scream on the other line, he smiled. "Yes, Sir, I'll be right there. Thank you, Sir." Kairo ended the call.

Yara immediately took a bath and changed into a secretary's attire. A skirt and a white blouse. She put a light make up and wore her heels. She tied her black smooth hair and made a bun from it. She looked on the mirror and when she was satisfied on what she saw, she went outside and hailed a cab. She sent a text message to her mother and Emma replied "Congratulations!".

Yara reached Abstract Worx and paid the cab. The Engineering firm was located on the fifth floor of the building. She went in and entered the elevator. As she was standing inside the elevator, everybody that are going inside can't stopped on glancing on her. Her bewitching beauty and voluptuous figure were adored by men and women were jealous of her. When the elevator stopped on the fifth floor, Yara went out leaving the rest, still in dazed. When the elevator closes, some of them scratched their heads because they missed the floor where they should go.
