Inka's Point of ViewI groaned as I regain my consciousness, my head throbbed in pain as I opened my eyes. I realized that I was in our bedroom. I looked around and saw no one, not even Read. I rubbed my temple as another wave of headache came and I began to feel nauseous.The door suddenly opened revealing Read in his bloody shirt and messy hair. "You're awake already?" I heard him asked I closed my eyes and tried to suppress the headache, I felt the bed dipped as he sat beside me."Are you okay? What are you feeling?" He asked"I'm okay just a massive headache," I answered and massaged my temples"Don't worry it will end soon. It's just the drugs." He answeredI was in too much pain to ask anything so I just nodded, a little disoriented. I lay my head back at the bed and groaned. I was really feeling weak but I tried to fight the tiredness away but couldn't and realized that I am slipping away fro

Inka's Point of ViewI looked at him, eyes unwavering. He was right though, he doesn't know anything about me. I never told anyone about my story, about my life. Am I ready to tell it to him though?"I don't even know you too," I answeredHe sat up, holding me by my waist. "I already told you some and besides my story can't be told just yet." He stated on which I smiled a little and cuddled to his chest. His grip became tighter."And same as I, Read. I went back and forth through hell, I can't just tell it to someone like a bedtime story. I'm not ready yet and I hope you understand that." I mutteredI felt him kissed the top of my head and hummed."I understand, I'm sorry if it felt like I was pressuring you, I just wanted to know you better." He added and I nodded.For some minutes we stayed like that. Cuddling at the bed, it was when we heard his phone rang when he decided to let me go. I stood up and w

Inka's Point of ViewOnce Keziah was done showering, I gave her the set of clothes that she'll wear and waited for her again. I looked at myself in the mirror and made sure that I look okay. Once the bathroom opened, I helped her brushed her hair and we both went down to the kitchen.I saw them cooking and preparing the table for the dinner. Well except for Read who was probably back at his office. I guided Keziah to seat at one of the chairs as I looked up at Wayne's dishes."You know what, you could already have a wife with those kinds of foods," I stated as I admire all the dishes he was cooking."Yeah and hear a lot of nagging? No thank you." He answered as I laughed and went back.I sat beside Keziah and smiled at her. We waited for another 15 minutes when the boys had finished cooking and placed the foods at the table. I stood up and told them that I'll just call Read. I ran upstairs to his office and knocked twice before ope

Inka's Point of ViewWe roamed around the town. It was like an ancient place away from the true civilization of our country. Though this town also has its own phones and signal routes, still the interior and the design of every building here are so ancient."I guess Read is like the Leader of this Island," I muttered whereas Wayne heard it and looked at me"I guess so too since he was the one who helped these people have their own technology and livelihood." He answered in which I nodded.We roamed around and bought some stuff, I was paying for the fruits that I bought when I heard someone screamed. I turned around and saw a lady running, she was distraught and pale. I looked at Wayne and saw that he was on full alert.He looked at me and I nodded telling him to follow the girl. He was hesitant at first but I glared at him. He heaved a sigh and followed the girl who was running. I looked back at the place where the girl came

Inka's Point of View"How's the list going?" I asked as I entered Read's officeThe boys had gone out to attend some important business, Read and I was the only one at his house so I went inside his office to ask him. "I'm getting there. I already eliminated the ones who didn't stay at the Main House for over 2 months. I got 50 people who need to be checked on what they did during the time my brother was killed." He answeredI nodded and walked behind him to give him a little massage. He groaned and leaned back to me, I smiled and hummed a little. He took my hand that made me stop so I looked at him confused about the sudden changes of mood."Did you bring any dress?" He suddenly asked which I raised an eyebrow to.I shook my head as he nodded."Okay, I need you to do something for me. Would that be okay?" I nodded and went in front of him"You'll meet Wayne later outside, tell him that you both needed to

Inka's Point of ViewThe sun shined from the windows that made me groaned. I opened my eyes and looked around as I realized that I am in an unfamiliar place. I looked at my side and saw Read sleeping peacefully. Ah, right! Were on his private island. I stretched my arms and jumped out of the bed, I walked to the bathroom and made my morning routines.After doing my things, I walked out of our room and went downstairs, I saw Andrew drinking some coffee. "Hey, Andrew!" I greeted and went towards the fridge.I looked around and decided to cook some breakfast which are french toast, bacon, and oatmeal."How was your sleep?" He asked while I pre-heated the pan"Good. Actually, that was my good sleep after a long time." I answered, he hummed and continued sipping his coffee."What are you going to make? Can I help?" I nodded and told him to prepare some 2 cups of oatmeal while I cook the bacon.
