ICE’S POV:I looked down at myself and realized that I was wearing different clothes, which were different from my own. I also notice that I am not wearing the dress that I wore to the party anymore. How many days has it been? I guess they changed my clothes due to my state at that time. I was full of blood and dirt that night. I touched my shoulder and felt all the bandages that were wrapped around my skin from my toes up to my shoulder. I also touched the one on my head, and there was also a cloth there, which I assume that I have experienced having a fever since this time. It was a cloth with medicinal herbs on it.She may have noticed my expression, "I put bandages on your body because you have so many scratches, wounds, and bruises. Your body is also too weak now, so you should stay here to heal.” I heard her say, so I turned my attention to her. “How many days have passed since I was in a coma?” I asked her calmly. She sighed and smiled faintly but before she could even answe
XERCEL'S POV:I nodded. "What are we going to tell his grandfather now?" I asked with a helpless tone and looked in her direction.She glanced back at me for a second before turning her attention back to the road. "I don't know the answer to that either. The only thing I know is that we will be scolded at some point.” She answered in a worried tone causing me to pout."You're right, and I need a break too. I haven't slept since that night, and I even got kicked by a monkey that time.” I groaned with a frown and looked out the window."There is nothing we can do, Xercel. As much as we all need and want to rest, we can’t. We need to find her first because even though we can rest physically, I know mentally and emotionally, we are still a burden." She said with a sigh. It made me silently agree. I sighed and thought that she was right. ICE'S POV:I told them calmly, "Before I leave, I will also leave the money I have here to the both of you. I know that this can help you with your dail
ICE’S POV:I looked at the back of the old man and saw how he looked around the grocery store. I walked towards where he was standing and stopped beside him while he was still focused on looking around. I observed his expression and smiled when I saw that it was full of excitement, as if this was the first time that he had come to a place he had been dying to enter. I sighed at this thought and looked at the old man gently. I can’t help but feel sympathy for this man, but other than that, I could still say that they are somehow lucky to live in a peaceful and safe place, unlike mine. “Grandpa, just get a basket and choose the things you need and want from this store. It’s on me,” I told him softly.This made the old man turn his attention to me.He smiled, “Okay, dear. Thank you so much.” He mumbled excitedly while getting a basket beside him. I just smiled and nodded my head in answer before motioning to him to go on. I was just observing him while he was getting all the things h
ICE’S POV:Zee drives even faster as I continue changing bullets with those people behind us."Don't worry, all my cars are bulletproof." She mumbled as if it would make us both at ease. I rolled my eyes hearing those words and just nodded my head as an answer, since what should I say anyway? That was quite a relief since there is still a possibility that I will survive this and I will not die today. Fuck it! Grandma Mirasol just treated me and I just healed not too long ago. In short, I just survived that fucking close-to-death experience, and then what? I'm going to be hit with a gun again? What kind of fucking luck is this? I think I'm not made of steel or even bulletproof, right?I mumbled and sighed helplessly. "It's really annoying, you know?" I asked sarcastically. "Too bad, I was already in this situation even though I wanted to end this now since I badly want to go home and sleep,” I added.“Then kill them as soon as possible.” I heard her say in panic as her attention was
XERCEL’S POV:"Ice is missing." We flinched because of the coldness of his voice as he said those words. I even gulped secretly when I realized that it was not a fucking question but rather a statement. Now, I am right. He already knew that Ice was missing, and the way he spoke was fucking sinister, which made all of my hair stand up. "Since when?" he asked in a cold tone.I gulped, but we knew that we still needed to answer him. "Since that night of the auction," I answered hesitantly, and thankfully, I didn't stutter while saying those words."Don't worry, I will still send you to continue searching for her." This calm statement makes me nervous even more because I have this feeling that I will not like the next words he will say. "But, you have to receive punishment if you still can't find her for a month," he added coldly, which caused me to swallow one after another. I knew it!Storm was about to speak this time, but the door immediately opened, causing us to stand up at the s
ICE’S POV:He was just looking at me hesitantly for how many minutes now. I told him, irritatingly. "Give me a valid reason, Grandpa. I fucking need to know!” I looked at him angrily as I said those words. Geez, this silence and questions in my head are killing me! I am aching to fucking know the truth! Just fucking why are they hiding these important things away from me?He sighed and massage his temple as if he was also stressed about the situation. “Because the doctor said so. Your situation will put you in danger once we force you to remember the past. According to him, you will only remember it naturally when your brain is already okay, like right now." He explains in a gentle tone as if begging me to calm down.I snorted at hearing those words. "Maybe you're forgetting, I'm a doctor too, Grandpa,” I told him.He shook his head, “That time, we don’t have any choice but to do it.” He explained.I sighed, “I understand that you are scared that time but things are different now.
ICE’S POV:Was he also worried about me? I guess he is. What happened to him anyway? And what should I do about this situation of mine? However, despite everything that happened, I know in my heart that I will still choose my child more than anything in this world.I can’t help but think about him every now and then. I sighed and shook my head to get those thoughts out of my head. The thing that I must think of now is how to face my husband.I need to focus and prepare my heart and mind for what’s waiting for me once we get to the place where Grandpa is taking me."We're here, child," Grandpa mumbled calmly, which brought me back to the present situation.I immediately looked out the window and felt that this place was somewhat familiar, but I can’t point out where I saw this place at the moment. Did I come here before? My mind was clouded with doubt, but perhaps I'll figure it out later.I heard the door open, which indicated that Grandpa had already gotten out, but I didn’t look in
ICE’S POV: I looked at him and nodded my head. "Yes, I'm fine, Grandpa," I answered and sighed before looking back at the man who was claiming to be my husband. "So, if you were really my husband, may I know what happened to me back then?" I asked him with a serious expression. He glanced at Grandpa and their eyes met for a few minutes, as if they were talking about something using eye contact. I was just observing them silently, and after that staring contest between them, they immediately looked back at me together. "Let’s all sit down for now and I will be willing to tell you," he told me, and I just nodded my head. "Ice, sit with the children," Grandpa told me, so I nodded at this as both Gray and he sat beside each other. This made me sit on the couch adjacent to both of them while my children sat beside me. Once we are already settled on our seats, I immediately face Gray while waiting for the next thing he will tell me. He sighed and asked, "What do you want to know?" His
