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
KIAThe rustling of leaves calmed my nerves as I lay with my eyes closed on the leather couch. Even the occasional thunder strike didn’t frighten me. I could hear a trickle of rain beginning to calm me even further. Moreover, I was looking forward to the weekend; the sunshine was about to begin. "Ares is busy at his work again…" I mumbled as I lay face down on the couch.I need to kill my boredom. There is an amusement park a couple of miles from here. It is called the Enchanted Kingdom. That amusement park is quite popular here in the Philippines. The Enchanted Kingdom, often abbreviated as EK, is a theme park in the Philippines. It is located in Santa Rosa, Laguna, about 39 kilometers from Manila. It has a land area of 25 hectares. Which makes it more exciting since there are so many rides to enjoy. I grabbed my phone and Facetime with my two best friends."Hey, girls~" Marcy said as he joined facetime."Hi, besties! What's up?" Miaree asked."Are you both busy tomorrow?" I asked
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
ARESThree days have passed and my wife, Kianna, is still in the hospital. She stayed longer than we expected since there were several tests that doctors conducted. But since the result shows negative of any serious problem, they will let her discharge this afternoon. The company is having a busy day today since we are doing a collaboration with other big companies. I spent my day reading, revising documents, and giving my approval. There are still two documents that I need to start reading. When I look at my watch, it’s already 3:40 p.m. Kianna will be discharged from the hospital at exactly 4 p.m. I need to hurry so that I can go pick Kianna up from the hospital.I immediately start doing it and give my full attention to all the documents that are on my table. While I was busy working, there was a knock on the door; two small knocks and one big knock. It was Kyle. He entered the room, and it was perfect timing since I had already finished all the documents.“Kyle, is this the last
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
KIA“Mi-miaree!” As a result of Miaree's unexpected actions, everyone was shocked. It's hard to believe he's even conscious at this point, as he's bleeding from his head. “You f*cking b*tch! How dare you hit my head?!” He was about to approach Miaree when she suddenly threatened the frog-looking man with a broken bottle glass. She pointed it at the man while her eyes were blank. I can’t see any emotion in her. I feel like I didn’t know who she was. She wasn’t even bothered by the blood flowing from the man’s head. That death glare made me shiver.“Why not? You are pestering our meal. You deserve it — Actually, you deserve more. Do you want one more hit? because there are more bottles here beside me. Want to try it with your head?”“You are crazy!”“Yes, I am. I am telling you, you are all done if my friend is hurt today! I will make sure that you will be buried six feet below! Have I made myself clear?" The frog-looking man suddenly collapses, and all of his men gather around him.
“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
KIADo you ever wake up and can't move? That day is today. 6:24 is my alarm. Ah, 24. It's my favorite. Number satisfaction didn't wake me up. I set my alarm for five minutes before nearly losing it. I turned off my alarm and fell asleep again. 7:24 a.m. is my second alarm. As far as I know, Ares still doesn't live for work. I heard him cooking. I stayed in the bedroom while he was home. I suddenly shuddered and looked out my window.…What idiot keeps their window open in the Philippines. I guess that makes me an idiot…I am lucky enough that no one dares to intrude while I am asleep. I dozed off while waiting for Ares to leave for work. At 8:24, my eyes opened once more. Even worse, I had no idea that I had dozed off again. I glance out the window, but his car is still there. Screw this, you know what I mean. I'll just skip my morning class and stay in bed for the time being. At 9:24 again, my alarm went off. I threw my phone across the room out of wrath, but it bounced off a chair an
