3652 Days Away From You
Rio wakes up suddenly because of the loud voices she hears behind the door of her room. She looked at her alarm clock and found that it was only 3 in the morning. She covers her head with a pillow but still hears the voice outside.
She stood up and walk towards her door. But as she gets closer, she seems to be familliar with those voices.
"I can't believe we're doing this to our child," an upset voice of a woman.
"But it's the only way to save our company and to sustain the better life we want to give Rio." a man said with a loud voice.
Rio who was eavesdropping behind the door,"What are they talking about?", she asked herself. "Are mom and dad getting devorced?Oh no...calm down Rio. Calm down. You're overthinking," she took a deep breathe and slowly open the door.
The two adults looked at her as if they've seen a ghost. They both looked at each other-worried.
"Uhm...how long-" Mrs. Asuncion cut her husband and walk closer to their daughter.
"Did we wake you up?" Rio' mom asked showing a smile from her face.
Rio nodded and looked at her dad behind her mom. "Are you and dad fighting?" she asked.
"No sweetie, mom and are just talking about things." her dad explained and walked towards them.
"You mean adult stuffs?"
"Yes." her dad said while rubbing her hair.
She can still see through her parents eyes that there is something going on between their family. But she doesn't want to make things even worst for them that why she kept herself from asking.
"Well...it is still early in the morning and you have class later at 7. You should take some more sleep. Mom and I are heading to the airport."
Then, an upset expression arose on Rio's face. She remembers that her parents will be out of the country for half a month.
"There,there..don't be so sad. CK and her nanny will visit you everyday." her mom said.
"And Alexa will be brought here after school." her dad.
"Who's Alexa?" Rio asked.
Her parents smiled at each other.
"You'll know after school." said her mom before checking her phone.
They heard the car beeping outside. And before her parents leave her again , they kissed and hugged her.
"We love you,sweetie."
But before she replied they were already out of her sight.
"I love you both, too." T_T
She went to her bed again and overslept.
"Young Miss, please hurry up or you'll be late for your first day in school," her nanny asked her while preparing everything she needs.
"Umm.. nanny"
"Yes?"
"Has CK and his nanny pass by?"
"I actually didn't notice. Why? Are you two at the same class again?"
"Yeah." Rio said sarcastically.
"Well that's good. You have someone you know at the first day."
