Chapter 17
Kirito stared at the ceiling above him as he lay on the sofa. With the dawn hitting in, the room got brighter. He took a deep breath and looked at the window at the end of his feet. He slowly got up and sat on the sofa.
'Ethan...He knows' Kirito thought to himself. He looked at the floor as silence surrounded him. Vivian slept peacefully on the bed. He got up and got inside the bathroom. He took a hot water shower as he constantly increased the temperature of the water.
He looked at the shower wall as the mist covered the bathroom and the mirror turned foggy. He pressed his head on the wall and closed his eyes.
"Thanks bastard. You've reminded me of everything all over again." He said. He stayed in the shower for about an hour as memories hit him. Memories about Ethan.
"She looked just like you..... She was 14 at that time"
"How old were you?"
"I was 18"
"You were 18 and a friggin psycho" Kirito t

Kirito drove back home and opened the door. It was half past eleven and the lights were out. Two candles lit on the dining table and Vivian was asleep on the dining table."What the--" Kirito looked at that shameless woman sleeping on the dining table like her father owned the damn place! Well, her husband did. He went ahead to pick her up but then he saw a small note on her hand."I've put the dinner in the oven. You just need to heat it and you can have it. Next time, tell me before you leave, I get worried. How old are you seriously?" He read aloud and crushed the paper."I am not a kid." At the end of paper, in a small font, it read- 'flip'. He flipped the paper and it read in a huge font"Anyways I love you" Beneath it, again in small font it read "If you're hurting Hiomi, then you don't have to say it to me, I know how stubborn guys can be. Just don't return this paper back to me if you are feeling exhausted, I won't ask for it. If everythi

Kirito squirmed in his sleep. He was perspiring heavily and was extremely uncomfortable under the blanket."You psychopath!""I prefer creative"He opened his eyes and all of a sudden got up. He was wet with sweat and his head was spinning. He fell back on the bed and looked overhead."Great, I can't sleep now. At this rate, I'll go mad"He tucked his knees into his stomach and curled his back. He clenched his arms and dug his face into the pillow. He moved into every position he could think of but it was all vile effort."Alright, I can't sleep." He got up. Vivian was asleep on the sofa. He walked towards the fridge and searched for a beer can."We are out of beer. I'll just get some more." He said as he moved towards the entrance and tucked his shoes. He walked out of the apartment. The streets were empty and dim lit by the street lights. It was quiet and still."It's been a month since I went to work" Kirit

It was morning too. None of them could sleep last night but Vivian was happy. At least she had a good conversation with him. Though, she still didn't know a lot about him. She was in the kitchen when Kirito came out of the bath, he had a towel wrapped around him."I've kept your clothes in the basket." Vivian said from the kitchen. He picked them up and looked at them. After he was dressed up in a red T- shirt and blue pajamas, he went to the kitchen with the towel around his neck."Jeez! You didn't even dry your hair properly""I guess they are okay" He was looking for something in the fridge."They are not!" She took the towel from him. She gently scrubbed his head with the towel as he looked at her."There you have it." His bangs covered his eyes and his greenish blue eyes were glowing under his hair."Wow. You look... Ethereal!" She laughed."Oh yeah?" He touched his bangs while looking at them. She sniffed him "You smell like lov

'Huli ka'; With those words, Kirito dug deeper into his past. He remembered how hard he fought to prevent this marriage but he couldn't win. That broke his spirit to go against them."I don't want to marry," He told his mother."You don't have a choice. That's the main reason why you exist.""Oh yeah- Then kill me!! But I won't marry her!"It was like he lost his identity and became a complete different individual.'I have died but somehow I still exist, visiting my own grave-- I feel sick!Why did I have everything taken away from me? They took everything and left me with money-- but money won’t find my lost self.I can't speak it. And I was aware, I must not. But, I don't know what happened in that moment, I felt so free and it just slipped. What have I done? It's reversing back--this woman is destroying everything I've worked so hard to build.'Vivian pressed a band-aid on the cut over his cheek. He moved away.

Kirito slowly opened his eyes as sunlight fell gently on his eyelids. He looked at Vivian, sleeping beneath him, leaning on the glass door. He got up and rubbed his eyes. He felt the band-aid on his cheeks. He looked at her as the sunlight struck the window pane and lit up her hair."So, you won't hate me, huh." He sat in front of her "Anyways," He pressed his arms on the glass window "Thank you for listening to me when no one else did."'I feel strangely light today. Like, everything is cleaned up after a rainstorm' He thought as he looked up at the sky."Must be the weather" He said to himself. He heard his phone buzz and picked it up. He found Erika's texts.'Let's meet up today. My treat. I'll listen to everything you've got to say'He stared at the screen and then kept his phone aside. He got inside the shower "I didn't sleep that well in a while" He got out of the shower while rubbing the towel over his head. He picked up hi

'Two lines which cross once, never meet again. Ethan and Vivian, they are nothing alike'Jericho wrote on a piece of paper while sitting on a bench in a park covered with snow, in the middle of the night.'Ethan is more of the pessimist type-- Someone who'd hit himself before life hits him. It's actually funny though, I received the order to get the job done twenty years ago, and now I'm doing it for the same role, just different people.Vivian on the other hand, she's bubbly-- I like her. We'd jam well. Too bad she's married already. Well even if she wasn't, I'm not the romantic kind of guy so anyways I wouldn't stay. I don't know what you're planning, Fate, but you're really twisted. Nevertheless, it's fun to watch over them. At least I'm not bored.And things will only get interesting from now on, the time is here. I can sit back and relax for a while' He wrote. He had an old calligraphy, cursive handwriting."Hey!" A guy stood before Jericho. T

Kirito sneezed and blew his nose with a tissue paper. "Seriously, why would you go out in the rain after having a hot shower? You're so stupid!" Vivian pressed a wet towel on his forehead. He ignored her and dialed a number on his phone "Dad,""Sick again?""Yeah""You know, I think you're acting sick because you want to spend more time with your wife~""What the fuck are you saying?" He pressed his temples."So, when can I expect my grandchildren?""Never. Listen dad,""Yeah, I'll take over""Thanks""But the grandchildren--""Bye dad." Kirito hung up. Vivian made some chicken soup and brought it to the bed."Eat up""Idiot, I'm sick""I don't think the throat chokes when you're sick""No... F-..." Kirito looked at her. "F-...Fee- Fuck you, give it here!" He grabbed the bowl."Careful- It's hot!" The bowl slipped from his hand, she held the bowl."Leave it-- You'll burn y

Kurosava walked in the halls of the building's parking lot, while looking at his phone."Kirito's wedding album," He looked at the pictures."Could this get any more interesting?" He stopped and looked into his phone--a picture of Kirito and Vivian together cutting the wedding cake.He drove out as Jericho sat on the railings of the building and looked at the car with the book in his hand."Should I let this happen?" He then touched his choker "Sorry guys, I'm bound by the law"Vivian was sitting at the dining table, chopping a few onions for the dinner. Suddenly, she heard Kirito's voice."What are you doing?" He asked as he stood behind her."You're back from the office? I was just preparing the dinner." She wiped her tears. "I'll go wash my face" She kept the knife aside and went to the bathroom. Kirito looked at the chopped onions."Onions, I swear one day I'll make you cry" Vivian returned back and picked up the bowl of ch
