"Sister! Help!"
"Alina!" she exclaimed, reaching out her hand while crying.
"Please...help me..." She begs as she collapses to the ground, unconscious.
Celine woke up from her nightmare.
"That dream again..." she groaned, rubbing her head as though to indicate her headache.
She yelled, "Maid! Come upstairs!"
The maid came upstairs and assisted her with getting ready for work.
She said to the maid, "Thank you, You May Go."
The maid bowed and walked away.
*Phone rings*
"What's so urgent that you contacted me, didn't I tell you to just call me when it's important?" she asks, picking up her phone from her manager.
"Viktor is back," said the manager.
Celine was taken aback and dropped her phone.
"You.. You're not lying, are you?" Celine asked.
The manager stayed quiet for a small period before responding, "Yes, I am serious."
She bit her nails as an expression of her fear of Viktor.
"I wouldn't have handed him my sister if he hadn't pretended to be a kind man," she said to herself as she grieved.
It was six years ago..
*knocking on the door*
Celine smiled as she opened the door and asked, "How may I help you?"
"Are you Alina?" said a man in black.
"What's your business with my sister?"
"She owe me a very important item"
"Eh..what is it that she owes you that is so important?" she cautiously asked.
"Do not interrogate me, because the item I'm looking for is very important not only for me, but for everyone in my family."
"All right, I'll get her downstairs, but who are you?"
"You're not in a position to ask," the man said firmly.
Celine was afraid of the unknown man, so she couldn't help but call her sister.
After she came downstairs, Alina asked her sister, "What is it?" She glanced at the door and suddenly got a worried-scared expression on her face.
"What are you doing to her!" Alina said, her voice trembling.
The mysterious man shot Alina as soon as he took his gun from his jacket and walked away, leaving Celine stunned by what she had witnessed.
Celine needed some time to process what had happened because it happened so quickly.
After realizing what had happened, she immediately called the police. The face of the unknown man and the scene were still fresh in
her mind
The police and ambulance arrived quickly, picking up her sister and transporting her to the ambulance and emergency center for treatment.
Celine is worried as she waits for the doctor to come out and tell her what her sister's condition is.
After waiting for 3 hours, The doctor came out and shakes his head implying that her sister had passed away.
Celine paused for a second. "This has to be a dream...no.." she said, her voice trembling with sadness.
Her eyes welled up with tears as she processed what the doctor said. The doctor bowed to her as a sign of sympathy and walked away.
She buried her sister within an hour of her sister's death. They don't have a family, so there were no funeral services.
Celine cried for hours, until dawn, because she couldn't forgive herself...she blamed herself over and over again for her sister's death.
Years had passed, she had formed her physical and mental strength, she had studied efficiently in order to commit to her plan...now her hard work had led to her success and who she is today.
She personally investigated the unknown man who murdered her sister years ago. She later discovered that the man's name was "Viktor." He is the CEO of a well-known illegal company towards criminals and law enforcement.
*End of flashback*
"Viktor.." she muttered, her nails biting and an angry grimace on her face.
