“By the way, we have to go now. We might be late for our flight..” I nodded for a response.

“Okay. Take care of yourselves there, dad, mom..” I waved my hands to them as they are now walking away from me.

The two maids were carrying the luggage going to the car. They placed the luggage at the back and then one of them closed the compartment.

About this, they waved their hands again to me and I smiled. Then until the door closes and the car runs away.

Actually, they will go to the States now because they will attend a special event that will be held there tomorrow night. It is just exclusive for those employees in the company and negotiators and partners of my dad's company, even mom as the company becomes the first top most popular among other companies and has a big sales as the brand came from my parent's company are actually more recognizable than others. They celebrated it as it was in fact a world record for their successful business this year. Some well-known visitors will join and come there also to celebrate with them tomorrow.

I just walk towards the balcony to continue the artwork that I actually started doing earlier. This artwork actually belongs to those artworks that I'll be donating to one of the orphanages that I was helping.

And yes speaking of it-I was helping a lot of orphanages because I love kids who are abandoned and I love to share any things as long as I can and what I have to myself.

“Ma’am, excuse me, sir Kade was looking for you..” I stopped painting for a while when suddenly I tilted my head to Sally. She was now standing there near to where I was sitting. And about her, she's waiting for my response.

“Oh, just told her that I’m here. He can go here..” I said in a soft voice.

“Okay, ms. Lola..” she said with a half-smile.

“Thank you. I'll just wait for him here..” after I said it to her, she walked away. While me, I just go back to what I am doing.

It took a minute before he came here on the balcony. I stopped what I was doing as I stood where I was sitting to approach him.

“Oh, Kade! What brought you here? ” I said gladly to him. I noticed his face was just blank while walking toward me. Then he stopped when he was now in front of me.

"Nothing..just to visit you..." he said without hesitation.

"V-visit me?" I said curiously. I gave him a seat, facing me and we started our conversation.

“U-uhh, by the way. What did you say to me again? Are you looking for me? ” I asked clarifying again as I looked back at him again.

While looking at him for a while, I noticed that there was something going on with him. He seemed to be drunk when he opened his mouth slightly and I inhaled the smell of wine coming from it.

I distanced myself from him, and instead of talking to him I stood up and spoke because I noticed that his aura seemed different and there seemed to be something strange in his behavior when he was staring at me.

“Kade, you have to go home now. I think you're too drun-- ”

I was shocked at what he did when he stood up and suddenly hugged me.

“K-kade! W-what's wrong? W-why are you doing this? ” I asked, a bit nervous and wondering.

Suddenly, I felt his hands moving as he was caressing me on my back and I felt that it was moving up and down to my sensitive part.

Before I let him continue what I think he will do, I abruptly pushed him away and I did not hesitate, I slapped him hard.

“Y-you! Jerk! ” I just cried where I'm standing right now while looking at him caressing his face after my palm landed there.

“I'm sorry but I just love you Lola..” my nerves almost trembled because of what he said to me. I wiped my tears. I immediately started to turn my body and I made my step away from him. But before I could get away from him, he pulled me away from him.

I almost tried to resist him and do my best to get away from him as he gripped me and started kissing me on my neck.

“K-kade..L-lola..” it makes my whole world stop when I abruptly go away from him to look at my back where that person was. I noticed Kade also became dumbfounded when we are both looking at Sofia now.

I saw her just standing not far from where I and Kade were. It makes her start dripping tears to her cheeks even though the surrounding is quite dim as it was already night.

It is almost a second as no one of us is speaking and only the cold air passing through us was enveloping us and prevailing. Suddenly, Sofia slowly covered her mouth, shaking her head saying that everything that she saw was not true.

I know, I got her. She saw what this Kade did to me!

“S-sofia, whatever you saw th--” she abruptly cut me off as she spoke. I noticed she's trying to hide the pain inside of her even though she's trying to smile in front of us.

"L-lola..w-why?"

Suddenly, I noticed Sofia was just trying to herself not to fall down on the floor. She's controlling herself even though I also noticed that she wanted to slap me now if she could.

“No, Sofia! It's not what you think! ” I abruptly ran towards her just to make her believe and if I could plead just to make everything clear to her and do just to prove that it was not our intention and want to show up on her.

But before I could reach her, she tilted her head first to Kade and then to me for a second while wiping her tears before she went away.

I'm just left dumbfounded here and I feel that I wanted to cover up myself and feel so sorry for what Kade did to me.

Speaking about Kade, I turned my body to him and I just saw him sitting, out of nowhere.

"Are you happy now?" I don't know where I could have the guts to say those words. But Kade was still in that way.

I actually wanted to slap him again but I just didn't do it. Instead, I just walked away just to hide because of what happened.
