Veronica wake up early to work and her man was still sleeping. He was too drunk last night and vomitted all of it. She had to nurse him and bath him and make him brush his teeth. By three in the morning, he woke up already sober and made love to her. d.a.m.n that man. But she enjoy it though. Too early for the exercise.
"Tony, wake up. You have work to do."
He wakes up lazily and didn"t have time for stretching. She drove the car since he"s still sleepy and had a hangover.
"I don"t want to drink with them ever again." He mutter as he put his black shades on.
"Then don"t. I don"t like how your male friends stare at my b.o.o.bs and b.u.t.t."
Tony frowns and look at her from head to toe.
"I"m going to f.u.c.king kill them."
"Just go and drink something to relieve your hang over."
He move closer to her and kiss her lips. She patted his cheek.
"Go now cowboy, I"m late." She wasn"t in the mood to talk about last night. Because she have a lot to deal with today.
"Love you, baby. Pick me up?" He grin and kiss her lips more and they did kiss more.
"I will call you if I don"t have something to do tonight."
Tony kiss her more and sigh.
"I already miss you." He pouted.
"I wouldn"t miss you if you don"t get your a.s.s out from the car."
"Okay." He kiss her again and again and then he left and wave at her. She honk the car and turn it around in the direction of her office.
She park her car, exhales and relax herself before going out to do her mission. She fix herself and change her eyegla.s.ses to the one that has access to her camera. She pickup her hand bag as she walks towards the elevator.
Employees greet her and she greet them back. Then she arrive at the office and found Sylvia there waiting for her. She got the odd look from her but then Sylvia smile at her.
"Hi. What"s up?" she asked as she put down her hand bag and turn on her computer. She type her pa.s.sword waiting for her response.
"We are going somewhere today." She said.
"Hmm, really? Where to?" She asked curiously and wait for Sylvia because she"s been staring at her. She look back at her and she smile.
"To where you live."
"Huh?" Veronica knows it all. To that mansion where she and her mom live. But she acts like she didn"t know it at all. Sylvia drove her car with Veronica in the pa.s.senger seat.
It was a long drive, four hours drive despite the traffic. But it"s a freeway after two hours of traffic. Veronica look around trying to remember how it look back then when she was a teen running away from home. She scroll the window and inhale the fresh air. Everywhere are full of trees and the wind is cold.
"You like it here?" Sylvia asked and she smile genuinely.
"Yeah. The air is fresh and the view is breathtaking."
"You have to ready yourself, Veronica."
"For what?" Veronica asked giggling. "Are you going to take me to some cult and sacrifice me?" She joked. Sylvia laugh and look at her seriously after. "Maybe I am. Are you a virgin? That would be better." They both laugh at their jokes.
"Tony makes love to me every night. So—totally not a virgin." She said.
"Woah! Tony has a great stamina." She noted.
"He does—even though he is tired. He would wake up at three or two in the morning just to disturb me. d.a.m.n…" Veronica mutter. All what she"s saying is the truth. Tony is like that. But she enjoys it every time they made love. She feels like a Queen and a G.o.ddess at the same time. Who wouldn"t feel that way? Tony was practically pleasing her and wors.h.i.+pping her body like it was made of gold.
"So, Veronica, tell me about you."
"Me?" She asked puzzled. "Well, I was born in U.S. got adopted there… my foster parents died after a big accident in Virginia… uhh… I have no boyfriend since birth and Tony is my first. I like slacking off more and what else do you want to know?"
"Did your parent"s tell you, you are born and got adopted in U.S.?"
Veronica bounce her head as an agreement.
"What if you aren"t?" Sylvia asked giving her a hint. Veronica already knows the whole story that Sabrina made. She did calculated it all.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Do you remember your childhood?"
Veronice creased her brows trying to remember but she shook her head.
"I don"t remember anything at all. I was raised as Veronica and my parents told me lots of things from my childhood but I remember nothing from all of it. I got into a big accident when I was nineteen so—it is hard for me to remember it all. They said that it was because of trauma that"s why I got amnesia…"
Sylvia nodded and observe her to know if she was lying. Veronica was good at lying and she even lie to the lie detector. Its their job. To lie and act. That"s how it is. Sabrina taught her so. It was all worth it.
Soon an old house came to view. But it wasn"t just an old house but a wide villa. The gra.s.s are newly cut and even the flowers are new. She stop from the stone way by the middle all the way to the mermaid statue on the fountain.
She has memories here. All she could do was act like everything looks familiar but she doesn"t need to act anymore because everything that she feel and show was real. She look around and then look up the balcony and the window next to it. Where her window seat is. She always sit there and wait for her father to came home but she learn how devious he was and on how he killed her mother.
Now to that demon, she felt nothing at all. But the urge to kill him.
