(Akito POV)I do not consider myself as a good person. I have done many wrong things. I have lied, I have cheated people, I have killed people, stolen, swindled and the list goes on. Even now, I am lying. No, my past story is true. There is nothing false about it. I am not Akito, that is also true. I am a survivor of the now scrapped project, code named: Serus. I was telling everyone my past experiences. But suddenly Margaret called me. She is the one who tortured me the most while I was in Egypt. But I don’t hate. Rather, I sympathized with her. I offered to kill her but she didn’t die.She was also a modified human, modified to be the same as me. Due to the strenuous modifications, her psyche took the hit and she became mentally unstable.During her unstable days, she did many things which got the ire of many people. I tried to kill her using poison but her immunity was improved so it became harder to kill her using toxins.Monga and I were originally there when I gave her poison.

I have only arrived in India. Upon my arrival, I found myself in immediate danger. Ratri and I disembarked from our plane and went through the airport.The immigration and stuff, just know we didn’t come here through proper means. However, I was surrounded once I got out. Ratri was taken hostage. By none other than her mother.The people surrounding are people whom I know. I have met most of them before. We are in Benares. This place is both holy and unholy. I don’t mean to desecrate the image people have but it goes both ways.I got entangled with them 3 years ago. I speak an entire year, in this city, being chased by goons.Anyway, Ratri is someone who can’t go against her mother. She did say that her mother went home while we were in Japan.So she has been waiting for me, I guess! “Mother, it has been a while since I last saw you.” I can speak Hindi decently as well. I spoke in Hindi. Mother doesn’t like speaking English.“Why are you calling me mother? Call me Ma.” (Ma)“Yes, Ma

(Mona POV)Everything has become complicated. Serus or whatever his name is, has totally messed up our lives. Masato said that Akito is coming here with my mother. I patiently wait for them to arrive. Ariel and Tsubasa did wake up. They started throwing a fit about wanting to see Akito. We had no choice but to make them remember. They were present when Serus revealed everything.One thing is still bothering me. Why are their memories so jumbled? They were supposed to have gone to the same elementary school. But what Serus said doesn’t match with Ariel’s memories.I guess only one way to find out. It’s usually our parents who raise us. So they remember things we forget. My mother has a lot to explain.Currently, we are all sitting in the hall room. With a grim look on her face, Ariel is silent. She has been that way ever since we made her remember what Serus said.Tsubasa is also the same. How is she so attached to Serus?I feel like nothing has changed. We still don’t know anything.

(Mona POV)A week has passed since Serus fled. This whole week was one thing after another. We had to explain the entire situation to both my father and Mr. Kanehaya. My father knew some of it but the rest was still too shocking for him.And Mr. Kanehaya had no idea. Must have been a pretty big blow. I am still uncertain. Tsubasa and Ariel have pulled themselves together. Now only a fire of revenge remains in them.But I don’t know what Shizuka is thinking. She has been working on something but I don’t know what. And the African mafia has retreated. Rachel stayed behind as her studies weren’t finished. Masato has been restless since then. Akito visits him everyday. On the other hand, me and Shizuka have the duty of supervising the chapel project.Ariel is working normally too. But suddenly Masato called all of us to his house. “What could it be now?” “What did he say?” (Shizuka)“To go to his house. With you and Ariel. What is he planning this time?” I wonder what he is thinking.

(Mona POV)Masato suddenly got a call from his friend, Sakai who is Akito’s father and a victim of Masato. But why did he call Masato now of all times?Masato takes his phone and leaves. I think he will call him back and ask. After a minute or so he came back. “What happened? What did he say?” I ask Masato. And he isn’t looking very cheerful.“Sakai said that he and Akito are coming here.” (Masato)“Here? Now of all times? Why would he come here?” (Ariel)Ariel has a harsh tone. Maybe she doesn’t like Mr. Sakai. Well, considering what he has done to Serus, he can be called a person with questionable morals.“He didn’t elaborate on why he is coming. He said that he will explain it face to face.” (Masato)I am a bit curious. Ariel seems plainly annoyed. Tsubasa and Shizuka have disinterested faces. Half an hour later, we hear the doorbell. Masato leaves to check. “This will be the first time we are meeting him. I wonder what kind of a person he is!” I am positive that he isn’t that
