  Abigael's PoV,

  "Abby, could you please serve this order on that table? Ma'am Angela is asking me to do something else." Shela asked me. She gave me the tray. I accepted it since I have nothing to do.

  I am Abigael Mendez. 23 years old. I am working here on a restaurant. The salary is good enough for me since I'm able to help my Auntie Rose, my only family. We do not have anyone else but each other. So even though my time out of work every night is late, I'm enduring it since the Restaurant is just near from our house.

  After work, I changed clothes in locker room. When I was done, I went outside the restaurant. 11 on the evening is my daily out from work. It's just a walking distance from work to home. I will pass by just two streets before I can get home. There are street lights so I can assure myself not to panic. It's fine rather than wait for a public vehicle and spend money to pay fare.

  When I came home, the lights are already turned off. For sure, Auntie is already sleeping. Auntie Rose is the sister of my father. Maybe she was tired from the laundry she washed today. That's the only job of my Auntie, she washes clothes of the neighbours and received the wage in return of her service. And that made me want to earn more money because I can't help but pity her.

  She doesn't have a husband and children. Thus, when both of my parents died because of the tragedy, she adopted me. She raised me alone and treated me as her own daughter. That's why I really lover her so much.

  I went inside of my room. After I changed my clothes, I tucked myself to bed and sleep.

  I woke up early to help Auntie Rose from cooking our breakfast. 9 on the morning is the time of my work so I have time for this.

  "Good morning, Auntie." I greeted.

  "Oh, Abby. You woke up too early, isn't the time of your work is later at 9?" Auntie reacted while cooking fried rice.

  "I want to help you from cooking our breakfast," I smilingly answered.

  "Oh, right. Okay. You cook this fish and I have something else to do." She said and prepared the finished fried rice on the plate. She gave me the fish I'm going to cook.

  After I cooked the fish, we started to eat. I took a bath after the breakfast and dressed myself from going to work.

  "Auntie, I'll go now." I informed her. She's doing the laundry in front of our house.

  "Okay, take care." She responded.

  "I will." I answered.

  While walking, someone called my name.

  "Abby!" I turned around to see who called me.

  "Dominic! Why?" I asked. He's my long time suitor but I don't have any plan to enter into relationships for now. But he's just too persistent because he said he'll patiently wait until the day I'm ready.

  "Nothing. Let's go, let me accompany you to your work." He said.

  "Don't bother, Dom. You also have work, right? You might be late." I answered.

  "Are you sure, though? Alright. I am just going to fetch you later instead." I just nodded as a respond and he left me.

  I continued walking to go to the restaurant but I feel like someone's following me. It's been a long time since I felt weird about this, I always feel like that someone's really following me but I will also ignore it, thinking that maybe I'm just being assuming.

  I turned my head behind me but there no one. But I really feel, through my instinct, that there's someone. I shrugged off that thought and instead, I walked faster than before until I finally arrived to the restaurant.

  Someone's PoV,

  "Later, after her work. Kidnap her and bring her here in my Mansion." He commanded to his men. It's been a long time since he's watching the girl he likes very much. And he'll make sure that he'll get her this time and no one can snatch her away from him.

  "We will, boss." Answered from the other line.

  "Wait a little longer, honey. I will be with you finally." He smilingly said and gulped the wine from the glass.
