I took a seat next to him.

"What's wrong, Calvin? Are you okay? I noticed you're uneasy in your seat," I asked, my gaze fixed on him.

"A lot of people are looking at me, sister, and I noticed that they are mostly women, maybe they are curious about who I am. Too embarrassing," he complained.

I couldn't stop laughing.
"They have a crush on you. That's a normal reaction of women. Maybe you're not aware of your good looks. So if you want to be a part of my life and my world. You have to get used to a lot of people. They'll stare at you. Because you'll be with them every day for the next few days." I command him.
He stood up and took a bite of food. I took a look at Calvin's younger sister. She was eating now because Lucy was looking after her. Maybe she was hungry because she ate so well. My eyes widened at the rooftop entrance, and I gaped at the visitor. Mr. Tao Chin was there with a companion.

Was he formally invited? What else does he need at this point? Randolf approached him and escorted him to the open table. So he was invited by Randolf? But it appears that he will be unable to do so. Randolf  is allergic to him.
The hotel staff's gave Mr. Chin a foods.   Randolf then approached me.

"Did you invite him, Miss?" Randolf asked.
"Nothing, I thought you were the one who called to invite him here," I replied.

"Neither do I, but maybe it's okay with you that he's here?" he inquired.

"Is there anything I can do for him? He's already here," I said.

"Go back to your table, so he doesn't see me here," I told Randolf.

He then exited and returned to his table. I'm sure Mr. Chin won't notice me  here because even when the moon isn't out, the light isn't very bright all around the rooftop. And when I saw him look around, I knew I was the one he was looking for.

"Your suitor has arrived, Miss," Lazzy said.

They also examined Mr.'s desk. Chin.
I shrug my shoulders and keep eating.

I told them, "Don't look at him so he doesn't come to our table."

I turned to face the child who was busy eating. 

Calvin took a seat next to me and began eating.

"What is your name?" I inquired.

"Hello, my name is Princess Lara," she says.

"Your name is lovely, just like you," I said.

"Thank you very much, sister."

"Did you enjoy the meals they prepared? After you finished the rice, there's ice cream and cake here; just ask," I told the boy.
"Yeah, I prefer eating foods like this to that..."

"Stop talking, Lara! Just eat," Calvin says.

My brow furrowed. Because I was too interested in what Lara would say lastly.

As a result, I was very interested in learning about the state of their lives. I even waited for Arthur's phone call.

It wasn't long before I was so engrossed in looking at Lara that I didn't notice the hand of whoever was holding my arm.

"What are you doing? You're holding my sister's shoulder without telling her?" Calvin asked out of nowhere.

Calvin's raised brow was the one I noticed looking behind me. So I took a look at what he was staring at. It was Mr. Chin who was beaming at me.
"Your brother is so angry when he looks at me, Zaneska, as if I'm about to do something bad to you," Mr. Chin said to me.

I cracked a grin. Right now, I know there is someone who will truly protect me from disaster. Calvin's expression reminds me of my father when he is angry. I have the impression that he is not pleased with Mr. Chin touching me. So he took his hand off my arm.

"I'm surprise that I see you here, Mr. Chin?" I asked him.

"Yeah, I know everything that's going on in your life, Zaneska, so I know exactly what those are," he replied.

My brow furrowed.
"Don't say you had me investigate? That's a bad move," I pointed out.

Mr. Chin laughed.

"Of course, I like you, Zaneska, so I'm not doing anything wrong, and if you're worried that I'll find out something about your personal life, don't be.

I accept you in all of your facets "In a serious tone, he said to me.
For a brief moment, I was deafeningly silent. Seriously? Is he still here to say whatever in front of a large crowd? I also noticed the girls staring at us, as if they were taken aback.
"Find a seat, Mr. Chin; you're not the only one standing there, and you're attracting the attention of others," I said.

He sat down next to me and took a seat. I rolled my eyes at what he did. He has absolutely no intention of leaving my table.
It's twelve o'clock, but I'm still sitting alone on our house's balcony. Mom and Melissa did not return home. They primarily sleep at the beach house. Drowsiness did not come to visit me because the house was so quiet. So I know I'll be exhausted the next day. My eye is hurting. I'm still waiting for Mitch's call, but he texted me that we'll meet tomorrow instead of today because he's on duty today.

I made the decision to go inside my room. I'll just sleep by myself now. I closed my eyes and wrapped a blanket around myself.

Randolf's birthday celebration has come to an end. As a result, his other guests left first. We've checked out of the hotel. They are staring at the car I gave to Randolf. In addition to Calvin.

"Your boss is too generous to give you a gift, Mr. Agoncillo," Mr. Chin told Randolf.
Randolf's response was simply a laugh.

"We're leaving, Miss, thank you so much for your gift, which will be repeated," Randolf said to me.

"Yes," I said.

Randolf and his girlfriend walked away. I looked at Calvin, who was holding Lara's hand.

"Does your mother knows you're here?" I inquired.

"Actually, he didn't know because he wasn't home when I arrived, and then he was working somewhere I don't know. He usually doesn't come home for a few days," Calvin explained.

"I see you're only going to sleep in the mansion; it's two o'clock in the morning; perhaps something bad will happen to you when you go home," I said.

"Our place is safe, so there's no problem; I have a friend who works here, and he has a car, so we'll just go together; he's already here," Calvin explained.

Then, in front of us, a white car pulled up. The window slid open, revealing the curly-haired man's head.
"Good evening," he said to me, "I'll just take Calvin home with me, we're neighbors."

"Thank you, and please be cautious," I advised.

I took a look at Lara. He smiled at me and took my hand in his. I gave her a peck on the cheek. They got into the car together. I motioned with my hand to them.

"My companion and I will go first, Zaneska; I can't take you anymore because I have someone with me now," he said while kissing my cheek; he would have avoided me but it was too late because his lips had already touched my skin.
I'm scowling. What is this man up to? Mr. Chin car has driven away.  So we all piled into the car. My head began to ache. So I have to go to bed convinced that I am it.

"Are you okay, girls?" I inquired.

"No, Miss, we really want to sleep; I see it's like a pillow and a blanket," Lazzy said.

I burst out laughing. I drove away from the hotel in my car. We arrived at the mansion about a half hour later. They all went out first and opened the gate, allowing me to bring the car inside.

I exited the building and went straight to my room. I dressed, sat on the bed, and closed my eyes.

I awoke at ten o'clock the next morning. I apologize for being so late to work today. I'm not sure if Randolf came into the office today. I intend to pay a visit to my parents at the cementery. I haven't seen them in a long time. I exited the room and went to the kitchen to get some water. I discovered them all eating.

"Are you leaving now, Miss? I thought you'd wake up later because it's Sunday," Lucianna asked.

What the hell happened? Why am I becoming so forgetful? Is it possible I'm already ill? I was given a glass of water to drink. I had three glasses left when I ran out.

"I'm leaving first; what dish?" I inquired.
"We only cooked vegetables for you, Miss," they explained.

"That should suffice," I said.

I sat down and took a seat. I began spooning rice and dish.

"You don't have anything to do today? You can start entering the office tomorrow, so you can't go anywhere; I'm too strict when it comes to office work," I explained.

"All right, Miss,"
"I'll take Lucianna, and the rest of you should check all my business around town; you'll just visit and see if there's a problem," I tell them.

"Yes, Miss," they replied.

The eight of them stood up, leaving Lucianna and me in the kitchen.

"Miss, where are we going?" he inquired.

"I'm going to visit my parents' grave, and I'll take you with me. Are you finished eating? Get dressed, because we're leaving now," I said. 

She was the first to emerge from the kitchen. I returned to my room after eating to take a shower. Even in the morning, the temperature is high.

Arthur hasn't yet call me. Maybe he hasn't got anything yet. I exited the bathroom. And I'm looking for something to wear right now. I decided on a t-shirt and faded black pants, which I would pair with doll shoes. I began getting dressed and exited my room. The entire house is silent. Maybe they've all gone.

I exited through the front door. And I noticed Lucianna waiting for me beneath the mango tree. I'm not sure if there is any fruit on the mango tree that I grew myself so that I wouldn't have to buy fruits from the store. At the back of the mansion, there are many more fruit trees. I'm not sure if any fruits have yet ripened. Because, as far as I know, the fruits are only available seasonally.

"Have they all gone, Lucianna?" I'll ask.

"Indeed, Miss,"
"Are there any ripe mangoes yet?" I ask.

"Looks like nothing yet, Miss," Lucianna replied, "only raw ones I see above."

I gave a nod. And then he got in his car. Lucianna then followed me.

"Whose car are they in now?" I'll inquire.

"To Lucas, Miss, I don't want to think about it, but there appears to be something in your company driver and Mila," Lucianna said.

"Really?" I asked. "I don't know the details of Lucas' life, but I haven't heard that he has a wife or girlfriend."

"They only met and talked at the birthday party; I had no idea they had an understanding now; it's too easy," Lucianna smiled.

"That's really how life works. Wherever you're comfortable and happy, that's where you'll end up," I explained.

Lucianna simply nodded. I've already started the vehicle.

"Would you mind if I came out to open the gate, Miss?" I'll ask.

"Nevermind,"
