Chapter Twelve : Lie
Baguio City, Philippines
THERA woke up at seven the next morning. Her back was sore from lying on the couch all night but surprisingly she had a great sleep.
She flexed her muscles and stretched her body as she got up. The sun was already sneaking from the glass window of the room. She forgot to lower the blinds down before going to sleep last night.
She yawned as she walked into the spacious bathroom. She turned the shower on when she got inside the multi-water jet shower enclosure. Thera retreated in shock as the cold water flowed out and splashed her feet.
After a few minutes of staring at the flowing water from the shower, she closed it and went out. She could not muster enough courage to bathe under the open showerhead.

October 23, 2019Baguio City, PhilippinesTHERA blinked when she heard a groan. It was enough to pull her back to the present from the memory of five years ago. She swallowed when she saw Sean’s creased forehead. He was staring at her intently as if studying her face.“Are you not feeling well?” he asked. Thera wondered if she actually sensed a little tenderness and concern from his voice.She flinched, thinking Sean would reach out to touch her neck to check her temperature. But he remained still. His fists clenched as if suppressing the urge to reach her.Or was she just imagining things? Perhaps it might be because of the intimacy from the tiny piece of memory a while ago? Thera never pictured herself taking bold steps toward any man. She’d rather be swallowed alive by earth than even think of doing it.But she did.

With her eyes narrowed and her lips pressed into a thin line, Thera walked inside the building.Thera’s glare followed her as the woman stepped into a famous boutique shop. She smirked.

There were still a lot of memories that were trying to break free from her mind but it felt like her brain will explode if she would force herself to remember.Those flashes made her more confused, though. She was clearly begging Sean for a second chance from the memory from the bathtub. But from the memory that pricked in her mind earlier, why was she as cold as ice? And though she was evidently trying so hard to be cold and mean towards him, in the end, she cried when she saw him hurt his finger.What made her change? When did she start to be disdainful towards Sean? Towards the people around her? Everyone who was once dear to her, why did she consider them now as her enemy?

It was her third attempt to try to see and talk to Kisses. Her second attempt was yesterday. She waited for about thirty minutes outside the latter’s house in hope that someone will come and open the gate for her.She decided to return today and check again. Her hope rose when an old man in his fifties finally appeared at the front door and opened the squeaky gate for her. She could not recognize the old man but perhaps, he was Kisses’ uncle or grandfather she did not meet yet.“It was already four years ago when they sold the property to me,” the old man said."Do they still come back here in Baguio?" she asked.“Oh, I'm not sure but probably not anymore. Their youngest daughter got very luc
