Chapter 41
I laugh at him.
This is how it feels when you are close to your loved one’s family, I am soon to be a natural and legal member of their family. I am only waiting for Kieran's proposal. Uh no! His answer. I am waiting for his response because I will be the one who proposes. I am courting him.
“You are so cute; your cheeks are chubby.” I get near him and pinch his tomato cheeks. Kyle is like a woman.
He glared at me.
“You are here again!” He said he always saw me.
“My brother is not here!” he yelled at me.
“Of course, I am here because I will live here; Keran is already proposing to me. We’re getting married!” I smile at Kyle like I won a game.
Kyle is acting like he doesn’t want to see me, but I know he likes that I am here every day. He is shy to admit his real feelings and tends to bully someone.
“In your dreams. I will have children, and he won’t still like you.”
I scream when I suddenly pinch his cheeks so hard. I also pulled it to hurt him. He talks nonsense.
I am here because I am not busy visiting them too; I know they already miss me; I haven’t seen them for a week.
“Chandria,” Uncle said.
“Hello, daddy.” I kissed his cheeks.
“Where’s Keran?” He asked me about his son.
“So feeler.” I heard Kyle murmur, I know he wanted me to listen to it, and it didn’t whisper the way he said it.
“I was with him when his manager called him. Maybe he got another contract.”
“No one cares.” Kyle butt in.
“Ay, by the way, uncle. I have a gift for you, mommy. I already put it in the kitchen, and I hope you will like it.” I smiled genuinely at him.
“You don’t need to do that,” He kissed my left cheek before leaving us to see my present for him.
“me, where’s my gift?” I looked at Kyle, and I stuck out my tongue to him.
“Don’t come here anymore if you don’t have a present for me.” He rolled his eyes again and glared at me before focusing his attention on what he was playing. He also opens the other TV.
“Kienzo! Kienzo! Kienzo!”
Who’s that?
“Kienzo, come out there!”
We look at each other eyes before we go outside to see that woman who had been shouting. I saw a tall woman.
“Keizo Vladimir!” she shouted again.
“Who’s that?” uncle heard too and came out.
“Where’s Kienzo?!” when she saw us standing at the door, she came to us and asked.
Sigaw nito at lumapit sa amin.
“Can you tell him to face me and take responsibility for me!” She angrily demands us. Who is she to command me?
“Pardon? Who are you?” Uncle nicely asked her.
“So, you are his father? Where is Kienzo?” This woman asked without any fear. She’s acting as if she owns us.
“Let’s talk this inside. Our neighbor might hear us.” Uncle invited her to come in despite her making a scene.
Woah! She invited her inside. This family is really kind to their visitors.
“Who’s that woman again?!” Kyle whispered.
“Kienzo!” When her feet stepped inside, she started to search for Kienzo.
What is her relationship with her brother Kienzo?
“Can you so please shut your mouth? You are so loud, and Kienzo is not here!” Kyle shouted at her. He is annoyed with her.
“I’ll call my son. You can have a sit.” Uncle told her to calm her down.
“Who’s that?” Mommy came into the scene and asked about her.
“Hi, mommy.” This woman is Feeling close.
Did she know them?
I had never seen this woman.
Maybe he is one of Kienzo's mistresses?
“Who are you?” Mommy asked her when she came down the stairs and reached us.
“I am your son’s girlfriend.” this woman smiled.
Mommy was shocked.
“Call Kienzo and tell him someone is finding him. Call Kenzo too; maybe he is finding Kenzo, not the other twin; she might mistake the two.” Daddy told us and mommy, who was the one who called him.
“Hija, what’s your name?” Mommy asked Dolly.
Mama bear looks happy seeing this woman.
I shake my head; maybe this woman is another family member.
“I am Dolly!” She answered cheerfully.
“You are so pretty, Dolly. Your name suit you.” Mommy praises her while her eyes are also smiling. Mommy likes her.
“Dolly? Is that the missing fish?” Kyle asked.
Kyle inherited that who he got that attitude.
I saw Dolly raise her well shape eyebrow at Kyle.
“Kienzo is coming.” I didn’t hear what mommy said to brother Kienzo. I am busy looking at Dolly.
We waited not too long, and Kienzo was finally here.
“Dolly?” Kienzo called her name. They know each other, maybe they are friends… with something fishy.
“Oh, hi, babe!” Dolly kissed brother Kienzo's cheeks and was about to kiss his lips when Kienzo moved.
“Hey, what are you doing here? Why you didn’t call me?” Brother Kienzo used when they release from their hug.
“Who’s that woman again?” Kyle is irritated.
“I thought you were here, and I was about to surprise you, but I was the one who got the surprise. I am giving you a visit.” Dolly said while getting back in her seat.
“Kienzo, who’s this woman?” Mommy asked about her again.
“Mom, she is my ex, Dolly.” Kienzo introduced her.
Are they ex-lover? Yet they look close and on good terms. Is there a kind of relationship? Maybe they are still into each other; some exes return to each other.
“Your ex? Why did you not introduce her to us?” Mommy asked again.
“Had you called Kenzo?” the uncle asked.
Mommy nodded as an answer and focused again on Dolly.
“Yeah, auntie. Our relationship didn’t work and lasted long because we decided to break up. We accepted that we were not for each other. We decided to become good friends.” Dolly suddenly became kind. She is showing respect now. What a plastic woman.
“We don’t care.” Kyle butt in again.
“And who are you?” Dolly asked about me when she noticed me. I’m just looking at her.
“Hi, I am the wife of Keran. There are other siblings. Their third brother.” I introduce myself.
“Wow, another one has a thick face like a book,” Kyle murmured.
“Let’s talk to the balcony.” Kienzo invited that woman. We let them have privacy.
We look at them while they are walking on the balcony.
“I smell something fishy,” Kyle muttered.
“Stop making a fuse,” I advise Kyle, pinching his cheeks again and telling him what to expect. He glared at me again.
Dolly is clingy, hugging Kienzo arm while they are walking towards the balcony.
“You just got home?
Dolly nodded and sat on that chair that Kienzo pulled for her.
“Yes, I thought you were here.”
Kienzo became silent.
“Oh, by the way. I bought a wine. You might want to taste it? Don’t say no to me.” Dolly looks at Kienzo meaningfully, and she gets the wine in her car. She is smiling like a witch.
“Can you get a wine glass? How will we drink this if we don’t have a wine glass?”
Kienzo stands up without saying anything. He passed the people in the living room; they were busy chatting and laughing. He came back at Dolly immediately.

“Who are you? What do you need from me? I don’t have money.!” I shouted.
I don’t see anything because I am wearing a blindfold, and my hand and feet are a lock.
Kidnapping is still a hit nowadays.
“Bullshit! Jerk! Let go of me!” I shouted and trying to be strong. I am removing my fear. I can’t be scared at this kind of moment.
Maybe that Chinese man made this to me? Or that person who I have debt with? I don’t have any idea who will be the one who’s going to do this to me. I don’t have an enemy.
Or maybe my sister?
“You are still alive.” I heard a man’s voice approaching me.
I feel that they are two people.
“Of course!”
I am difficult to breathe because it’s so hot in this kind of me and I have been here for the house. There’s no aircon.
Nanaghina ako nang bigla nila akong suntukin sa tiyan. Namilipit ako sa sakit.
I feel weak when they suddenly punch my tummy. I wring in pain.
My head hurt; it is so broken.
.
This thing seems to have happened to me before.
My tears suddenly fell. I must be dead than experience this kind of thing; why is the world being hard for me? It keeps on making my life miserable no matter what I do.
I feel numb when they hit my head using a hard object. I don’t have my head anymore. Maybe they are killing me.
I scream when they step at my feet; it hurts. Why don’t you kill me in an instant? I don’t want to experience physical pain.
They are going to kill me.
They did not say anything, and they kept on hurting me.
Attorney Kienzo, where are you? I need you right now.
They suddenly throw cold water at me.
I don’t see them and don’t know why they are doing this to me; they are not talking. Kidnappers should be talkative.
I feel my body is giving up at any moment. I can’t believe this torture any longer. Just kill me now; I don’t wanna live either.
I wanna die, and at the same, I don’t want. Help me to choose, Lord.

“Sir!” Manong Rodger keeps on knocking on Kienzo’s room. He had been calling him, but he was not answering.
“Sir Kienzo!” he shouted and did not answer as usual.
“Manong Rodger. Open the door.” Enzo gave him permission to do that.
“Sir, emergency, this is emergency. Ma’am, Claire is missing.” Manong Rodger said worriedly, and he opened the door of Kienzo.
