CHAPTER 17— He's Lying Rain's POVI was choosing something to wear when I noticed that my two cousins, who were both sitting on the edge of the bed, were staring at me. I was standing in front of them and holding the two hangers where the two dresses that I chose to wear tonight were hanging."Why are you staring like that? I said. Which of these two should I wear later?" I asked as I raised the hangers again."Dark blue is okay with me," said Aliona, who was lying on the bed."The black one is better, Rain." Azariah pointed to the hanger on my right.I frowned. "Can't you both choose?"Azariah made me suffer. "I bet the black one is better.""You can wear the black one tomorrow because it's a funeral," Aliona said.I suddenly felt sad when Aliona mentioned the word 'funeral'. I dropped the hanger on top of the bed and stood next to my two cousins."May I ask?" I asked them, and they nodded."Shoot!" Azariah said.I breathed deeply. "How was Abuela when she was alive?"Aliona sat dow

CHAPTER 18—Fur AllergyRain's point of viewAli and I went straight to my room. When I got in there, I immediately made him sit on the sofa. He didn't move and just looked at me while I was busy looking for what we needed. I took the small first aid kit that was inside the nightstand.I stood next to him and then took out the alcohol and cotton. I silently cleaned Ali's wound. While cleaning it, I noticed that Ali had a scratch on his hand as well. Even in the arm there is alsoMy concern for him rose. "Did you get into a fight?""No." His answer seems very lazy. There seems to be no intention of explaining it to me.I looked at him. I lightly pressed the cotton on his wound, causing Ali to startle. "You're really lying to me!"I held his hand again and carefully cleaned it. I also blow it to make the pain go away somehow."I never got into a fight, even if you ask Gianna.""Maybe I should ask her!" I spoke boldly to show him that I could do it."It's okay," he replied, looking at me

I chose to wear a white lace dress with flat sandals.My cousins were already dressed and had peeked into my room earlier. I was in the living room and was about to go to Butterfly Haven when I saw Ali coming in from outside."Are you ready?" he asked.I nodded and smiled slightly. I have also noticed my parents, who are both wearing colored clothes. I approached them.My mommy held my hand and squeezed it a little. "Are you okay?"I nodded. "Yes, mommy.""Where is Gianna?" my dad asked while looking at Ali.I'm just talking to someone, sir," Ali said seriously. He's got eyes on me."Many people will surely join the funeral, but we will be there in my car."Ali nodded. "I'll drive.""That's good," said Daddy.My cousins came down one by one, as well as their parents. Obviously rich people because of the clothes.Azariah wave
La Arma's Heir CHAPTER 20—Need To be Ready
RAIN's Point of viewTWO days passed, I didn't see Ali again since the night he hugged me in my room. He didn't even say goodbye. He didn't say anything and every time I asked my parents, they couldn't answer either.My concern for Ali was rising even if I tried to stop myself. I know I have no right to feel that way but I can't help it.Carrying the book and cell phone, I went down to the living room. I noticed the mother sitting there quietly and deep in thought. I approached it."Mommy, what are you doing here alone?"It seemed surprised by my presence. "It's you, Rain. I was just thinking about something. You, where are you going?" It looked at my hand."I'm just going to read this book in the garden. I'm bored in the room. Where are Aliona? I don't think I can see them." I turned around."Aliona went somewhere with Apollo. I haven't seen Azariah yet." He looked at me. "Are you hungry?"I shook my head. "Would you like to come with me to the garden? The air is fresh there because

Reymundo is a close friend of mine. He is your grandmother's lawyer.""Your friend?""One of my best friends. He is also one of Donya Aitana's students.""Then?""I know what is written in Donya Aintana's Last Will and Testament because I was with her when she made it."Her forehead was wrinkled while listening."Almost all of your abuela's wealth is named after you," Ali spoke to her calmly but seriously.Her eyes widened. "To m-me?""Yes.""Rain, whatever your Daddy and Ali say, please, just obey. We are worried," said her mommy.She didn't answer. She couldn't believe it. Her grandmother has many children as well as grandchildren. That's why she wondered why it was only named after her."But why all mine?" she asked."As I mentioned to you, you are Donya Aitana's favorite granddaughter."

CHAPTER 22—The Last WillRain's POV"I am Aitana De Lara. Seventy years old, I leave 50 percent of the property to my sons Merceditas, Eliseo, and Elmer.""Wait a minute, attorney. Why only fifty percent?" Uncle Eliseo asked the lawyer."Is it okay if I finish reading it all first?""Ah, sure. I'm sorry." He apologizes.The lawyer continued. "Fifty percent of this covers the plants." Many businesses mention the lawyer, and we just listen.The faces of my uncles and aunties show their dislike for the last will."Meanwhile, the remaining fifty percent will be left to my granddaughter Rain Ember. This includes the entire Villa Floris.""What!?" Auntie Merceditas suddenly asked. It frowned. How can half of mom's property go to Rain? She is just a grandchild, an attorney. We are her children."Azariah held her mother. "Mommy, calm down."But Auntie Merceditas ignored Azariah. "Attorney, maybe you're just making a mistake."The lawyer smiled. "I can't be wrong, Mrs. Gustaves."Auntie's eyes
La Arma's Heir CHAPTER 23—Seemed to be in Hurry
CHAPTER 23—Seemed to be in HurryRain's point of viewIt's night, but what I've been feeling since earlier is still the same. I didn't eat dinner because I didn't feel like it. Whatever comes to mindFrom what I saw and heard earlier from my auntie Merceditas, I know that she will not immediately accept those in the last will.I jumped up when someone knocked. I slowly approached the door and opened it from the outside."Hi!""Azariah?" I was surprised to see my cousin outside, but what surprised me more was that her eyes were red and swollen. It looks like she is crying."Can I come in?" Even though Azariah looked like that, she still managed to smile at me.Yeah. Come on, come in." I widened the door opening to let her in.When my cousin entered, she suddenly hugged me while crying. I wanted to know what happened, but it was better to keep quiet. I just let her cry first when she cried.After a few minutes, she gave up hugging me."I'm sorry. I made you cry. I messed up your clothes

CHAPTER 24—A Person Outside The WindowRain' Point of ViewI was nervous because of Ali's voice on the other line. I tried to call him again but his phone was switched off. I am wondering. I want to go down to see him but I'm afraid.I climbed on top of the bed. I tried calling Ali's number again but still the same. I'm really nervous and restless.I took a cardigan and put it on. I left the room with the cell phone. I slowly came down from the living room and went to the kitchen. I will look for Ali there first. It's a bit dark throughout the living room going to the kitchen because only the lights on the wall are on and it's not that bright. I even noticed the plate I used earlier in the sink.When I still didn't see Ali, I went to the library but there was no one. The silence was deafening all around. I took a deep breath. Maybe it would be better if I just went back to my room.I was at the bottom of the stairs when I noticed a shadow of a person outside the window. I bowed down.
