"Quickly! Check the pulse!" they can hear the rattling shouts of the nurses. They both helped the senior high guy, who was injured after its car jumped off from a cliff in the Riverside Hotel of Santa Ines.
"His BP is getting lower!" the Doctor who took care of the patient suddenly cursed out of nowhere.
"Fvck! Call Dr. Darren!" he ordered the nurse but later on, the nurse came back alone.
"He's not available. He's taking care of the girl who injured her head too!"
The whole emergency room was filled with the Doctor’s cursed and cussed. They done all they can do to save the senior high guy’s life but they failed.
The Doctor sat hopelessly.
‘Why does I can't be as good as Dr. Darren?!’ he asked himself.
The nurses got out from E.R and pledge their apologies. They lost another life of a patient.
Being a Doctor who took care of a patient's life is not a joke. It's not as simple as 1-2-3. The greatest nightmare the Doctor could possibly have is failing to save a patient's life. So, respect Doctors and know their difficulties in life. They tried their best hardly just to save peoples. If they failed to save them, it's not their fault. So if possible, don't blame Doctors.

"Dr. Darren! Emergency! Come here in the Emergency Room 101 as soon as possible!" Dr. Darren put down his phone after he got a call from a nurse. He was currently having a peaceful sip of the favorite coffee he was holding but he was suddenly called and his peaceful feeling got disturbed. He raised his one eyebrow. Why is this accident so early? It's still 11 a.m in the evening. Maybe this is what the saying said that nobody knows what will happen next. Just like a book. We don’t know what’s the next page will be, whether the main lead will succeed or fail. Only the author knows what will happen in the story and only the God knows what will happen to the people the next day.
He slightly laughed on what came into his mind. He's always like this. Thinking of reasonable things..
He stood up and went back to the hospital. Some of the nurses and doctors greeted him. He's known in this hospital as the youngest Doctor. He's the first one to be a verified Doctor at such a young age.
"She's found at the incident in the Riverside of Santa Ines. I think she was with the patient next door," said the nurse.
Dr. Darren suddenly stared at the face of the patient. He suddenly felt bothered. His heart was skipping a beat. He do blinked many times but this patient in his front really looked like his late father. He just shook his head and quickly take care of the patient. There are two nurse who helped him. Seems like the patient bumped her head into something that made her unconscious.
"It somehow damage her brain," said the nurse. Dr. Darren nodded.
"Yeah, frankly, it will just erase some of her memories on the last person she remembered," Dr. Darren huffed. Suddenly, a nurse came barging inside the emergency room.
"Dr. Darren! Dr. Lou needs you!"
"I'm busy. Can't you see?" he said, scoffed. Why do other Doctors always ask help from him when the patient's condition is so critical?
The two nurses sighed deeply when they finished. The patient’s heartbeat slowly returned.
"W-what happened? What happened to her?" Dr. Darren came out of the emergency room and saw a man gasping for breath. It looks like the guy have been chased by a murderer from his tiredness of running. He asked the two nurses to leave before he answered the guy.
"Are you the guardian of the patient?" he asked. The guy in front of him has a big arms, a well -shaped body and he can't deny the fact that his a good-looking man.
"Damn! I'm the younger brother!" the guy corrected him. "F*ck yourself! Do I look older in your eyes?"
‘Younger brother? He looks older than her tho,’
"Your sister injured her head so it is expected that it will damage her brain," the guy's eyes widened.
"What!? What are you talking about?! Heal her then! I thought you're a Doctor!?"
He just tapped the shoulder of the guy.
"I'll just check something on my office. I might answer your questions after I'll look into this," he raised the papers he was holding and walked out.
When he arrived, he quickly sat in his swivel chair and tested the blood of the girl. He had a urge feeling that he can't explain either. He compared the blood cells, DNA and genetic traits of the patient into his.
‘Why do we have the same DNA?’
He shook his head bluntly and stood up. It only means one thing...
He is typically related to the patient girl whom he looks after.
"I'm sorry to tell you but I'm afraid that your sister won't probably gain her memories back. Any disease or injury that affects the brain can interfere with memory. Amnesia can result from damage to brain structures that form the limbic system, which controls your emotions and memories. Whatever the past, just live a new life,"
The guy stiffened after hearing that from Dr. Darren. His face was so problematic.
"What's your name? So I can call you whenever her head starts to ache," asked the guy.
"Just call me Darren and I'll be there,"
The Doctor really don't like to mention his last name. It's not that he hated it, but he was afraid if once his last name will be known, he'll also get killed just like what happened to his parents.
"The name's Harrison. Harrison Miyamizu,"
‘Miyamizu? Familiar..’ he asked himself.
Where did he actually heard that last name?
Dr. Darren suddenly frozed when he realized a thing.
"You," he asked again the guy.
"What's the name of your parents?" he couldn't describe the uneasiness he felt this time.
"Huh? Why do you ask?" Harrison was curious on the other side.
"Just tell me," Harrison just shrugged his shoulders.
"It's Luziana and Hiroshima Miyamizu. The owner of the Miyamizu Dressing Garments Company (MDGC),"
Dr. Darren take a step back. He just couldn't believe who's this guy.
"Why? Is there something wrong? Do you know them?" Harrison asked continuously. He saw the bothered face of the Doctor that's why he asked.
"Nothing. I just realized that they're the ones who made my favorite clothes," Dr. Darren faked a laugh and quickly turns around just to end their convo.
"Dr. Darren!" the nurses suddenly rattled after seeing him passing out at the hallway.
Before Dr. Darren could even collapsed from shock, he thought of one thing.
He will definitely find an answer one day. He will definitely find the justice which his late parents deserved to. He will definitely make them pay for what they did.. and he will definitely take a revenge someday.
......| VENUS FOX 🦊 |......
It's already noon when Yliah woke up. She pressed her forehead because of dizziness. She only remembered that she went to a bar last night. How did she get home? She forgot what happened after she got really soaked.
"Good morning," he greeted his younger brother, Harrison Miyamizu. 16 years old and had nothing to do with life but only facing his phone all day long.
"It's already noon, bitch," his brother sarcastically said. This is the stupidest attitude he don't want from his brother. Couldn't he just be sweet to his eldest sister? She was envious of the other siblings who loves and respects each other. When will that happen between them? She rather get a caring younger brother in next life.
"Where's Mom and Dad?" asked Yliah while eating.
"Don't you remember anything?" Yliah arched her eyebrows.
"What are you saying? And one thing, what's with your sarcasm today? Did you eat something bad?"
"Bitch, you went here yesterday on your own. You're drunk. You were blabbing about nonsense things. You were talking about someone who was with you. Someone named Khrysler,"
The rice on Yliah’s mouth fall when she suddenly opened her mouth from the shock. That's when she remembers what happened last night.
She got drunk at the bar. She's so bored so she chose to go back home but she stopped her car at the University of Santa Ines. She begged Mang Anton (the Guard) to open the gate since she left her purse in the STEM Department. When she park her car at the parking lot, someone came and aggressively kissed her.
"Sweetheart, where did you go? Khrysler misses you,"
Yliah blushed and looked away when Harrison raised his one eyebrow at her face. She clearly remember the word that Khrysler said to her at the parking lot of the university. His voice is a bit harsh but she couldn't understand why the feeling is euphoria, where in fact, that's still the first time they met.
"You're as red as a tomato now, Yliah Miyamizu," Harrison caught her in a hook. She couldn't hide anymore. His younger brother cauht him blushing and even smiling.
"Fvck off, Harrison Miyamizu!" she hissed at him and stood up to get her favorite lasagna in the refrigerator.
"Ah, by the way bitch, you said someone was with you last night. Khrysler right? I didn't see anyone with you yesterday. You just came home with your lovely purse," Harrison opened up the topic.
Yliah’s eyebrows were wrinkled. What did her brother said? She was with Khrysler last night. She's not stupid to not remember that Khrysler walk her home.
"There you go delusioning again. Anyways, Yaya Sonya wants to see you. There's something important she wanted to talk with you,"
Yliah nust nodded. She was still spacing out what his brother just said.
Why does Harrison didn't saw Khrysler last night with her? Khrysler even walk her through her room last night.
She looked outside the window and saw the dim of the sky. Is it going to rain? She brought an umbrella before going out. Exactly when she get out, the rain poured.
She smiled at that thought and lean his right palm to catch a drop of a rain. When she touched the water from the rain, she remembers the past. She really liked the rain. She remembers that she was still playing in the rain before with his younger brother.. that time when Harrison is not as killjoy as today.
She slowly walked through the rain with her umbrella. Yaya Sonya’s house is a few meters away so she just chose to walk there.
She was suddenly surprised when someone suddenly joined her from walking and take refuge on her umbrella. When she looked up, she saw the face of a man with a sharp nose, long hair, high eyelashes, brownish eyes and tall. She take a glance deeply at the guy. He have a smooth and clearskin face. The guy was also soaking wet and out of breath that he was obviously chasing her to take shelter under her umbrella
"Good morning, sweetheart. How have you been? Did you eat well?" she was almost collapsed of what the guy just said. She realize lately that this guy is—!
The guy who walk her home last night... The guy who kissed her in the parking lot of Saint Ines’ University...
"Khrysler.." she whispered. Even mentioning his name made her weaken.
"Where sre you going? I will accompany you," she stared at the guy’s face and saw a gorgeous smile that she bet on her life that every girl who saw his gorjas smile will surely fall in love.
"I-i'll go to Yaya Sonya’s house. W-we.. we'll talk about something,"
‘Heck! Why am I uttering?’ she said to her inner self.
"Then okay, let's go,"
Her whole body went cold when Khrysler holds her hand. She was stunned and couldn't able to speak a single word. She has a million questions about who's this guy really is and what his intentions on her?
And one thing, he calls her sweetheart even though they are both still strangers!
"I will wait for you outside," Khrysler's gorgeous smile can be seen again on his face. She nodded as a reply and went inside the gates. She took a glance again secretly and saw Khrysler still standing outside while smiling at her back.
"Yaya Sonya? Si Yliah po ito," she knocked two times before the door opened.
The door opened and the woman with a weak body and a tired face showed up. Yliah was shocked on her condition. The old woman’s eyes are all swollen, that made it obvious that she's crying or mourning for something.
"I-is there anything wrong?" she asked concern. Yaya Sonya smiled fakely and opened the door for her.
"You should get inside first. You're clothes are all wet now Yliah,"
Yaya Sonya let Yliah inside her small house in the Poblacion of Saint Ines/ Santa Ines. She changed her clothes and was given a hot coffee. She forgot that she leave her umbrella with Khrysler earlier.
"How are you?" asked Yaya Sonya.
"I'm fine Yaya," she answered while her eyebrows are arching. Why does the old woman asked her if she's okay? There's nothing bad happens to herself.
"Eh you're the one with swollen eyes Yaya. How are you? Did something happened?"
Yaya Sonya smiled sadly and lower down her head.
"My son died," Yaya Sonya said and cried. Yliah gives the old woman a hug and slowly patted its back.
"Yaya Sonya, you don't have a son," she said curiously. She clearly remembers that Yaya Sonya is a widowed woman. Her husband died that's why they didn't have a single offspring. Whose son did she referred to?
"He's not my son. But I treated him like one. I know you know it Yliah," sabi ng matanda.
Even she's curious, she just nodded. She don't understand a single thing she said. She breath deeply before asking.
"Did Tita Hana and her Spanish husband agreed when you leave their house?"
The old woman nodded slowly. She's obviously depressed about the death of her master's son.
"Yeah. Besides, I don't have anything to take care of there anymore. They are all in Spain,"
Yliah let out a big- deep sigh. Is this what Yaya Sonya wanted her to talk? After all, the weight of the problem would weigh her down if she had no one to talk to about it
But.. she approached the wrong person. Yliah Miyamizu don't know how to comfort someone. She's good on making someone cry, not on comforting them. Well, that's how Yliah treated peoples. She's not as wisdom as Athena.
She keeps asking questions that the old woman would answer immediately. She thinks that maybe in that way, the feeling of her Yaya Sonya will be better.
The old woman stood up and said she would get something inside her room. She said that she should return the thing that she keeps to the rightful owner.
Later on, Yaya Sonya came out from her room with a thing she holds from her right hand. She put it in the table— in front of Yliah that made her whole soul totally starstrucked.
Her purse.
Her purse that she brought last night
"How.." she don't know what to ask.
How come her purse is in Yaya Sonya's house? She remembers that she really brought it with here yesterday. Harrison even said that she brought it with her.
Yliah had four purse. Its colors are: red, blue, pink, and black. It's also the purse she brought with her last night and the purse she saw today is..
Her favorite black purse.
"That's the purse that Khrysler Eyed Burns gave you on your 18th birthday, Yliah. Your favorite purse. He treasured it. He really do,"
How did Yaya Sonya know about Khrysler?
......| VENUS FOX 🦊 |......
Yliah stood up early and took a bath. She couldn't have a nice sleep because of what happened last night. It's Monday today and the opening of classes in University of Saint Ines will start. She was now wearing her dark blue school uniform that has white long sleeve below, dark blue necktie, and her dark blue knife pleated skirt. You will do many ups and downs wearing this uniform so if you don't know how to, just don't bother wearing it.
Yliah Miyamizu lives in Poblacion of Santa/Saint Ines. 18 years old and studying at University of Santa Ines. She's now graduating in Senior High, Grade 12, precisely. She chose the strand, Science Technology Engineering Mathematics o STEM. She wants to be an Aeronautical Engineer soon, her greatest dream. She really loves aircrafts and anything that floats in the air. She wants to experience flying. Flying without wings. She wants to see how big the world is from above.
She's in the middle of watching the sky from above when their school bell rang. She stood up from the bench she was sitting earlier and walks toward the building of the STEM Department.
"You are quite punctual today, sweetheart. You're waiting for me, right?" she turned around on who was talking to her and saw Khrysler. Her eyes widened.
'He's also studying here?' she asked herself.
"Nah, just watching the sky." other students was looking at her— or clearly saying at them. Yliah just shrugged her shoulders and ignored them. She knows that she lives in a world that full of judgemental person. If ever she could create a world without negative thoughts..
"You really love sky." Khrysler said and huffed.
"More than anything." she whispered.
"I heard that!" Yliah softly chuckled on his response.
"By the way, what strand did you get?" she asked. From looks, she knows they're just at the same age.
"Guess it, Miyamizu!" Khrysler aforesaid and walked first. He even heard his soft chuckled while waving at her.
'He calls me Miyamizu..' she thought. It's not that she likes to hear the word sweetheart. It's just that it's too unusual to hear him say her last name. She feels like she experienced a lil' bit pain when she heard her last name from him.
"Incorrect Amores! Any valuable answer? Miyamizu?" their Professor blunted.
Yliah Miyamizu was stiffened at her seat because she was not listening to any of the lessons that their Professor mentioned. Her body is in the classroom but she thinks her mind is in another universe! Oh aliens~ if you're the one who found it then, please give it back to Yliah quickly.
"P-professor Rel." she's beating fastly. This is the first time she didn't listen to his subject. She's busy spacing out about what Yaya Sonya says last night.
She just met Khrysler in a minute earlier and she forgot to ask him. The next time they will meet, she will really asked him about the thing she wanted to know.
"What was one of the Australian Stamp Bulletin's words to commemorate the first aeroplane?"
Yliah let out a big— deep sigh. She was grateful that the question Professor Rel asked is just a piece of cake.
"'A special airmail flight will be made on 6 August 1989 to commemorate the first aeroplane crossing of a major body of water in Australia by Captain Harry Butler.'" she answered and received a round of applause.
After the class, she go out and started to visit the other department of the university to search for Khrysler but before she could start searching, her phone suddenly rang.
Damuho calling...
She pressed the answer button and she was about to say a thing when the other line suddenly shouted.
[What the fvck bitch!? Why didn't you wake me up?! Look, I'm absent today!]
"Idc!" she ended the call another call came again.
"What is it that you want, Damuho!? I'm in the middle of searching someone!" she scoffed.
[I'm here in the cafeteria now. I forgot to bring my card. Treat me.]
Yliah suddenly froze after seeing Khrysler sitting in the chair. It looks like he was drawing something because he was holding a pencil with a sketch pad. She's so busy searching for him in the whole building of the university and then, she only saw Khrysler sitting in the Library while drawing something.
[Bitch? Are you still there? Dada? Yliah? Shit!]
Harrison nervously ended the call and quickly went to her sister's department but there's no person inside. He ran towards the other building immediately.
"You're here?" Khrysler raised his head and saw Yliah. His smiles are plastered in his face again.
"Hm." she answered bluntly. Her heart was beating loudly and fastly that she just wanted to answer him plainly.
"W-what did you draw?" Yliah feels nervous but she still chose to ask the curiousity of what he was drawing and why he was smiling while doing it.
"I'm drawing the apple of my eye." Khrysler showed again his gummy smiles and raised the sketch pad he used to draw.
Yliah almost lost her balance.
The girl he draw...
Is no other than herself.
"Dada!" someone suddenly shouted on her old nickname. Harrison quickly ran towards Yliah and hugged her. Finally, he found her.
"Harrison?" Yliah arched her eyebrows. Harrison faced his eldest sister.
"Listen, bitch. I'll only say it once." Harrison felt uneasiness to say this. He squeezed Yliah's cheek. He looks like he's going to make her look like a damn bulldog \=,\=
"What the fvck are you doing Harrison? You are squeezing my cheeks. Do you want me to look like a bulldog?" Yliah exclaimed in irritation.
"Stop delusioning Dada! Wake up!" Harrison shouted that caught other students' attentions. Yliah shifted her mood. Her thick eyebrows met. She pushed Harrison hardly that made Harrison let go of holding her cheeks.
"What are you saying?! You are the one who showed up out of nowhere! You hugged me, squeezed my cheeks, and shouted.. Are you stupid? Delusional? You are crazy!"
Harrison also stared at her back with a death glare.
"Look." Harrison pointed the chair where Yliah looked at earlier. That's when Yliah realize that Khrysler was still there. Her gaze landed on the chair where Khrysler was sitting but he's nowhere to be found. Even a shadow of Khrysler can't be seen there.
"You scared him." she glared back again to Harrison.
"God Yliah Miyamizu! Are you that dumb!?" she closed her eyes firmly of what her younger brother said. Why does he need to mind her own business? If they get well with each other when they're still in their childhood, well not now. In fact, this is not the first time they have had an excessive fight. Whether a gun or knife, they have already tried pointing that two dangerous things at each other and threaten their lives. But this time is different because they are fighting at the school. In the University of Saint Ines, the first time they created a riot inside the University.
Yliah quickly punched her brother's face that caused him to fall down. She was about to hit another blow but Harrison suddenly alarmed and twisted Yliah's leg causing her to fall. They are both lying on the floor now like a sea lion fighting at each other.
The people in the library still seems to be enjoying the sibling's show. Screams are predominantly heard in the whole library. There are other students who are betting on who will lose and win between the siblings. The library looked like a cockpit as if they were watching a cockfight of two brave chickens in the universe.
While, other librarians who are afraid to get involved are bewildered. They want to call Miss Mean, the rudest Librarian among them but they know more than anyone else that she doesn't want to hear complaints about such incidents. Librarians except Miss Mean are really cowards and are afraid to stop students from fighting. Is Miss Mean the only one they can trust with in this kind of war?
"Fvck Harrison!" Yliah cursed as Harrison pulled a little strand of her hair.
"Fvck you more Yliah!" Harrison placed Yliah on top of him and wrapped his arms around her neck.
"You can't breath now, bitch! Loser!" Harrison complacently exclaimed. He's too confidence that he would received victory but— he failed.
"Not yet!" Yliah shouted. He thought Harrison had actually caught her but she suddenly thought of one thing. He smirked before violently kicked his brother's testicles.
Harrison released the grip on her sister's neck and writhed the pain of his poor dragon balls.
"Ms. and Mr. Miyamizu!" the students who were betting earlier distanced theirselves and quickly hid the money behind them when Miss Mean, the rudest Librarian arrived.
"What's with this mess? To the office!"
Yliah rolled her eyes 160 degree at Harrison who was struggling to get up and followed them while still holding at its pity future .
_ _ _
[What's with the reports!? The two siblings of Miyamizu created a war at the University of Saint Ines!]
The siblings both closed their eyes to their mother's scold. Yliah just found out that their Mom and Dad is in Spain so they just doing a video call. But even so, they can still feel the madness of her voice.
"We're truly sorry." they both lower their heads.
[You always give me trouble. I will say, you are no longer a child! You are big now, Harrison at Yliah. I didn't give you birth to kill each other! Then you, Yliah, can you please stay silent for awhile?]
Yliah's forehead furrowed. She always give her trouble? Is it possible that his Mommy knew about the time when she got drunk?
Even confused, Yliah just nodded. She didn't want to fight her Mom. She knew in the end, she will still be the winner. Mother knows best, that is.
"Mom, Dada is not at fault." Harrison said.
[Not at fault? She should be! She's so stubborn that she didn't listened to us back before. Now, it happened. She should be responsi-]
"Missus Luziana. What I remember is that since we were young, you two left and started doing a business abroad. If business is more important than us, why care at us anyway? We survive and grow up without your care. You'll just only show up when you're about to preach us for something."
Yliah didn't feel surprised on what Harrison's said. Their parents are always like that. Even if their family is still complete, yet they didn't experience how happy it is to have a family.
[Harrison!]
Luziana exclaimed. She was obviously angry and couldn't believe that her youngest son said those things.
"I've heard enough, excuse me." Yliah stood up and walked out. She gone back to the University of Saint Ines and quickly went to the parking lot.
"Oh? Kid!" Mang Anton joyfully greeted Yliah when they meet path.
"Mang Anton..." she responded and suddenly raised an eyebrow when she saw what he was doing. She was cleaning a car. Yliah know he was a security guard in the University, but why the hell did he caught her cleaning a car?
"You came here yesterday didn't you? You said you would take your purse but I caught you staring at this car."
Yliah was confused. Mang Anton caught her staring this car last night? That's absurd. The only thing she remembered is she went to the STEM Department, went back here in the parking lot and...
"Um, Mang Anton.. Did you saw a guy here last night? H-he is way taller than me, h-have a sharp nose.. a-a-and .. have a long eyelashes." Yliah looked away after asking. She was obviously looking for some random guy.
"What guy are you talking, kid? Did anyone get here last night? As far as I remember, you're the only student who went here last night. There were no other students left."
Yliah looked back with a frowned face. What the? She clearly saw Khrysler that night. She clearly heard his husky voice. She clearly felt the hotness of its lips when it touches hers.
So what does the guard means that there's no one at school last night except herself?
"There's really a guy here last night, Mang Anton.." she murmured.
"If there really is a man, do you know who is it? So that I can list his name on the blacklist. He enters the university without my permission. What is he doing here, by the way?"
Yliah's mouth suddenly shut. She couldn't tell that it's Khrysler and maybe she could even mention the reason why the young man was there last night.
'Sweetheart, where did you go? Khrysler misses you.'
The word he left last night was imprinted on her brain. She slightly laughed at the guard.
"It's nothing, Mang Anton. HAHA that was just a joke. Besides, I'm drunk last night and just seeing things." the guard seems convinced and already laughed with her.
"You're really a joker, kid."
Yliah gripped her black purse tightly. She already brought it with her because it might suddenly go to Yaya Sonya's house again.
"By the way Manong, why are you cleaning that car? Is the owner around? Why didn't he clean that up?" Yliah asked. The guard shook his head and turned sadly.
"The owner passed away the other day. As far as I know, only his girlfriend survived. I also forgot the name of that young man. He's kind, he always gives me bread every time he enters the school. It's a pity that he died so young."
Yliah's heart ached at what she heard. What happened to its owner is really an unfortunate one..
But why was the car left behind? What's the reason why the owner's the one who died while the girlfriend survived?
Even though Yliah wanted to ask again, she just kept her mouth shut. If he asked more, he might be mistaken for being a nosy gossiper.
Yliah approached the car and touched it. The car seemed familiar to her. She also seemed to feel a little bit deja vu that she couldn't explain. She was about to turn around to look the other side of the car but she was tensed when he saw a name engraved on the car's door.
Frankly, it can't be seen from afar.. but when you're just near, the small letter engraved on it can be clearly seen.
'Yliah Miyamizu..' she murmured her own name that has been engraved on the car.
