I got off the bus with a smile even though I was upset because of the man next to me, I still thought it was his money and then he also used my money, annoying. I hope he just returned my wallet to me.
But he returned my wallet, just in case he took our fare. It's annoying, I feel like I'm a scam in that part.But even though that happened, I'm happy because I got down safely and arrived here in the town where my father leads, I heard that he is the one who leads here and runs this town, and I'm proud because my father did the right thing is about.
"Ale, where is the municipality here?" I asked a woman who was selling fish on the side, and she looked at me and then pointed the way to the municipality, I immediately thanked her and made my way to the municipality. My smile widened, even more, when I was in front of the municipality.
I observed the size and beauty of the design of the town hall where my father heads. I quickly straightened up my messy clothes and walked into the town hall. The guards even greeted me outside so I also smiled to greet them. I stopped in front of the Information desk and spoke to the woman present.
"Hello, good day. Can I ask a question?" I asked, it looked at me from head to toe then nodded. I think it's just my age.
"Where is the mayor's office here?" I asked, her eyebrow raised immediately."What do you need from the Mayor?" She asked so I took the picture in my pocket with a smile and then showed it to her.
"I'm here to talk to my dad," I said, I heard her weak laugh then looked at me seriously."Ms, there is no mental here in the municipality but if you want we will take you there." She said so I frowned.
"Huh?" I ask. She took a deep breath and she was annoyed with me."I said, Mayo is busy--"
"Arizona is my schedule full? You cancel everything." We looked at the speaker behind me and my heart almost jumped with joy when I saw my father holding a cellphone and a woman next to him, wearing a formal dress, and actually, the mayor was coming."Dad!" I called him with a smile so he looked at me and frowned as he watched me approach him.
"Dadd--" I didn't finish what I was about to say when suddenly two big men wearing black formal clothes stopped by, I looked at them both, they also had black glasses in their eyes and a wire connected to their ears."Mr. Mayor is not allowed to be approached." My lips quivered at what one of them had said.
"E-Excuse me? b-but he's my father." Their foreheads were wrinkled, their laughter could not escape my sight as if I had said something funny."What's going on here?" I looked at my father who was behind the two men in front of me.
"Mr. Mayor, she seems to be your daughter, she said." Laughing, one of them said so my father looked at me, even though his tummy grew and he looked mature, I'm sure he was my father.Dad walked in front of me so I smiled and immediately took the opportunity to hug Dad tightly, finally. For the first time, I also hugged my dad whom I hadn’t seen in years. When I was young I always asked my mother where my father was, she always told me that he had a job in a faraway place and it would be a long time before I could go home and come back, but when I came to my senses I gradually understood that what my mother told me when I was a child was not true.
He just didn't want me to feel bad for my father because he had another family.I don't feel bad for papa because I don't know what happened in the past, the important thing is that daddy is by my side and I hug him during these times.
"Dad, I've been waiting so long -""Get away from me." I was shocked when he pushed me away from him, I could see the disgust in his eyes and gestures. He even put alcohol on his hand in front of me and then glared at me as if I was a very bad person and I had done something wrong."Who are you? All of a sudden you're approaching me, don't you know that diseases are a trend now? Look at the dirt." It said that it made my mouth water."Mr. Mayor, I need you in the meeting room." The woman who had just arrived looked at me, I saw how disgust drew her, I looked at myself and smelled myself. I don't see anything wrong with me, I also don't smell bad so why are they just like that when they stare at me?
"Get her out of here, she's grabbing the attention of all the people here," Dad said to a man in uniform so my lips parted and I was immediately alarmed."But dad, I'm Erelah, Arizona's daughter," I said reason to stop him, he looked at me, and little by little the joy in my chest came to life because I saw his shocked reaction but it also disappeared immediately when I saw how his aura darkened as if I had said a name that he forgot for a long time.
"Leave us first," Papa said coldly to the people around us, although confused, they didn't just ask questions and immediately obeyed papa's orders."Follow me." He said coldly and walked so I immediately took my luggage and followed him. We arrived outside the municipality, he turned the road so I also turned until we reached the back of the municipality where there was no one but the two of us, I smiled when he looked at me but I immediately lost my smile when I saw what kind of stare he bestowed on me.
A stare where I could feel his disgust with me."Dad--"
"Don't call me 'dad' I don't have a daughter." He said coldly cause I was offended and bowed in shame, I felt like I was just embarrassing myself in front of him.My tears flowed immediately because of what he said."But dad--"
"Don't you understand? I said, don't call me dad because I don't have a daughter, go back to where you came from." I looked at him, his disgust at me.This is different from what I expected to happen, I hope he will accept me generously and greet me with big hugs but why is this? Why is this happening?When I was young, my grandfather always told me not to show up to papa because it would only embarrass me, then I always tried to defend papa and say 'He is kind so he can't do that thing to me but now, grandpa is right. Dad embarrasses me.
"Go back to your mother, haven't I already paid her? We've already talked about, why you're here now?" He asked angrily, then took out his wallet and took thousands of his money, then slapped me in the face, causing them to fall to the ground."There, leave and don't come back, maybe that's enough." He said, I bent down and looked at the money below. I can't buy the love of a father. I want his attention and care so here I am, not his money.
"The next time you come back here, I'll put you in jail, do you understand?" He asked so I looked at him, he turned away from me.
"I just want to experience being with my father," I said so he stopped, he kept his back to me.
"I just want your attention and love so I'm here, I don't need your money." My tears flowed because of what I said, my grip on my bags tightened even more.
"Mom said, you promised me before that you would come back to me, mom and I but ---"
"Leave and don't come back." He said coldly and walked away from me.
Damon POV "Annoying," I whispered then threw the cellphone I was holding. "What's up?" I looked at the person next to me who was staring at me, I took a deep breath then leaned back in my seat and crossed my arms with my eyes closed. "Nothing comes up on g****e how to die unscathed," I said, I heard her cough so I looked at her choking on what she was drinking. "Are you crazy? Why do you want to die?" She asked, once again I heard her pray and apologize to the person she was talking to. This woman, she's not going to lose her weirdness. "You're not there anymore," I said then got up from my seat and picked up the telescope that was next to me. "He's crazy." She whispered then shook, I just peeked at the telescope I was holding and then looked at what we were monitoring. "Have you ever tried to see a doctor?" She suddenly asked so I laughed. I lowered the telescope I was holding and then looked at her. "Have you ever tried to keep your mouth shut and not find out about things th

Languages: English, Filipino. 0966-351-4518 I gasped when that came out on g****e, I looked at the nurse who was fixing the bandage on my arm."Excuse me, how many years have you been working here?" I asked, she looked at me and then smiled."4 years." She answered so I nodded, I even saw how she put some hair that escaped on her ear then smiled looking at me, I frowned at what she was doing. "Have you ever had patients who died but did not experience pain?" I asked, I saw the frown on her forehead. "Pardon?" She asked. "Ms. leave us." The nurse and I looked at the speaker, Gazer with Erelah and Havacco. I saw Gazer and Havacco's disgusted stare at me so I laughed, while Erelah looked at me worried. The nurse who was fixing the bandage on my arm came out, Havacco and Gazer gave me a strong rebuke so I looked at them annoyed while Erelah c
Erelah POV I sipped the soup on the spoon I was holding and then savored the taste. Maybe it's okay, maybe Damon isn't an avid fan of sour, is he? I immediately put out the fire on the stove then put the lid back on the casserole and then washed the plates. He said he would go to sleep, it looked like he would wake up later, the coffee he was making for me had also cooled down. When I finished washing the plate I swept, I stopped sweeping when Damon suddenly came down the stairs. "Hey, you're awake. Your food is ready, then your coffee is cold, do you just want to mix it?" I asked, he just looked at me, from head to toe then frowned when he looked around. "Am I at home?" I heard him whisper so I frowned. "That's right, I'm at home." He said then looked at me. "Ms. Are you wrong about the house being cleaned?" My jaw dropped at what he said. "Huh?" I asked confused. "Wait who are you and why are you at my home?" He asked, is this Damon joking? All right, then I'll just take him
I was just quietly standing here outside Damon’s house while Gazer and Havacco were inside and talking to Damon.I sighed and then looked at the sky, still not clear to me what was happening. All I could think was that Gazer and Damon were just friends, but why earlier, did Damon call Gazer 'Cousin'? I looked at the door of Damon's house when it opened and spat on Havacco with a cigarette on his lips. Havacco looked at me then smiled. "Gazer is putting Damon to sleep." He said then stood beside me, I smiled and then looked to the front. "That guy, he's weird sometimes." I was referring to Damon, I heard his weak laugh so I turned to him. "Maybe you'll be even weirder with him now that you're with him in the same house." He said, I kept looking at him so he turned to me. "Are you going to ask something?" He asked, I averted my eyes and then leaned back in my seat. "Earlier, he said he wasn't Damon. His name was Achaz. I don't know if he was joking or what, but he was weird before
Gazer POV For the third time, I gasped again as I wiped my wet hair and faced Damon’s small mirror. "I also want to help. I want to know something about the person I'm helping." I remembered again what Erelah had said earlier. I don't have a problem if she helps Damon, my only reason is that I don't want to tell her everything because she will know our work and I know she will report to the police. I lowered the towel I was holding and then looked at my reflection. "I don't want to go back to a time when I would lose myself again." I suddenly clenched my fist as I remembered the last conversation we had with Damon when he was in the hospital. His illness returned, and his fear returned. I feel sorry for my friend because of what he faces. I got out of the CR and looked in the direction of Erelah who was sleeping on the sofa, Havacco looked in my direction then laughed. "Is that stress?" I stared at him then sat in a chair and poured water into a glass. "What's the plan?" Hava
Shawn and I silently watched the boy in front of us as he put on his clothes, Shawn and I looked at each other then looked back at the boy who introduced us as Damon."Damon, you said earlier that Achaz is inside you, what do you mean by that?" Shawn asked, Damon, looked at us after getting dressed.We are still in their house, in the other room where Damon told us this is his room. He had just finished taking a bath earlier. We said we would take him with us if he would take a bath and fix himself."I'm sick." He said coldly as he looked at us. "Multiple Personality Disorder." He added so Shawn and I looked at each other, we didn't know what that meant."What's that?" I asked. We watched Damon go to his clothes, looking for something."Two human beings in one body." He said while looking for someone."Are you crazy?" Shawn asked so I immediately kicked him."Does he mean, mentally ill?" I asked, but he didn't say a word. He pulled out a key and then looked at us."If you want to chang
Shawn and I just stared at the person in front of us, He smiled at us which made me cringe because this was the first time we saw Damon smile at us, in a month when the three of us were together he hadn't smiled at us. Damon is, a reason for me to believe even more that he is not Damon but he is Achaz.I smiled at him and then took out the notebook and ballpen."Eat Achaz, will you come with us later?" I asked while not looking at him, I started writing in the notebook I took out, I heard Shawn muttering softly so I looked at him looking at Achaz."Shawn, serve Achaz food, my cousin shouldn't be hungry," I said so Shawn looked at me confused about what was happening, even though he didn't get what was happening and he was in a mess he just obeyed my command, I smiled then turned my gaze to Achaz who was looking at me."Sit here cousin," I said while looking at him."Cousin? Why did you say, cousin?" He asked then slowly approached in front of me."In case Achaz comes out, introduce you
I looked at Shawn peering into the large mirror that blocked between the room where we were watching and the room where Damon was inside with a Psychiatrist. From where we were standing we could hear the two talking.Damon was wearing a white gown, while two men were behind him."How old are you?" The female Psychiatrist asked him."12." Damon replied coldly, I handed Shawn the mineral water I was holding, he immediately accepted it and then looked at Damon again."How many years have you been experiencing the things you told me?" The woman asked Damon."Since I was 10 years old." Damon replied coldly, no emotion on his face. I crossed my arm and leaned back in the chair.Yesterday Damon and Shawn and I went to the house of the Psychiatrist in front of Damon today, Damon was determined to lose Achaz so even at dawn we did not leave the doctor."Do you remember anything when Achaz came out?" The doctor asked Damon."Sometimes there isn't, sometimes there is." Damon replied.After what h
