"Ayumi! ..."
"Ayumi ... wake up my dear."
"Ayumi ..."
I could hear people calling out to me. Slowly I opened my eyes. Two hugs I longed for in front of me were smiling at me.
"M..mama..papa .." I said as soon as I saw them. Mom suddenly clapped her hands and I ran to them and hugged them.
"Mama..Papa ... Ayumi misses so much ... Don't leave Ayumi. Bring Ayumi together with you." I said as I held them in my arms. Let me remember the tragedy of 3 years ago when my parents took my life and changed my life.
"Sh ... Don't say that dear ... You have to go on living ..." said Mom while wiping my head.
"But after you're gone, everything has changed. Chihiro and Ray are all lies ..."
"Hm... since when did my daughter give up ... Isn't to Nanase's strongest family? Do you want to give up and let them win?"
"Of course not!" screamed and stood up.
"I will not give up and let them get what they want. They will have to pay for what they and Hiromi have done to me!" I said with anger and resentment.
"It's like daddy's ... You have to survive for us dear," he said, wiping my cheek softly.
Ayumi ...
Suddenly I heard Hiromi's voice calling me.
"Go on, your brother's been waiting a long time ..."
"But ... Mom..she .." my words kept disappearing. My mom and dad kept hugging me.
"Goodbye dear" he said before I suddenly realized.
"A..Ayumi! Are you okay?" As soon as I realized it, his body was tightened.
"Hiromi! Thank goodness you're fine. I thought I was going to lose you but fortunately you are safe". said I was still hugging her tightly.
"Er ... what are you talking about?" Asked Hiromi who was puzzled by his sister.
"Don't you remember that fire?" I asked.
"Fire?
"I'm late. Ayumi, you should rest first. David please take good care of Ayumi" said Hiromi before leaving my room.
"Yes, young master." Said David, a pope helper in his 50's.
"Er..David? What exactly happened to me?" I asked. Hiromi's words just now didn't make sense to me.
"Miss Ayumi ... don't you remember anything?" David asked. I'm shaking my head.
"Ms. Ayumi was involved in an accident and drowned in the river. After that, an unknown person rescued you but you was unconscious for 3 months."
I just kept quiet. Then I picked up my phone at my school desk. Well, it wasn't a month before the tragedy. What really happened? How can I be in the past? Hm ... But it's time for me to take revenge. I'm not the old Ayumi anymore.
Then, I walked toward the door of my room.
"Er..Miss Ayumi where are you going? Just relax in your room." said David hesitating to let me out.
"I'm bored. You told me I had been sleeping for three months so I was had enough rest to sit in this."
"But ... ma'am. If Young Master knows this. He will definitely ..." Before David could finish the sentence, I put my index finger on my lips.
"Shh ... It's okay if I keep it a secret." I said before I left my room. My closet is near me. The door key was pressed but could not be opened. The key seems to be.
"David ..!" I called out loud.
"Yes ... Ms. Ayumi. Is there anything I can help you with?" David asked.
"Do you have a duplicate key for this room?"
"Er ... yes but the young master will not allow anyone to enter this room, including you," David said frantically.
"Huh ... David please ... this is very important for Hiromi as well. I promise not to tell Hiromi about this." I said hoping to persuade him.
"Alright but I won't help you if the young master finds out," David said as he opened the door with a duplicate key.
Slowly I pushed the door open. The room filled with the work files was searched. One of the files in the closet was taken. Bye! Then I print it out and put the file back where it came from.
"Ayumi!" all of a sudden I was rushed in from the back.Eek! I spontaneously turned my back. Hiromi stood behind me as he leaned against the door.
"How can you come in? Isn't it locked?" Asked Hiromi as he approached me.
"Er ...." I lost my words and looked at David hoping he would help me.
"David?" Hiromi was the only one to know that I was asking for his help.
"Er ... I..er..Miss Ayumi! Yes Ms. Ayumi says she has something important to do." Said David.
"Ayumi, so you want to explain what you do in this room and what is the paper in hand?" Asked Hiromi as soon as he saw some of my papers.
"Er..this? This is my school work. I used my room for a photocopier of work. Er ... I told you." Hope you believe in my fraud. But then I saw my frowning face showing that she didn't believe it at all.
"Ayumi ... are you trying to deceive me? I hope you realize that you have been in a coma for 3 months and that you just realized today." said Hiromi as he patted his head.
Hey! ehek! I suddenly pretended to cough.
"I'm not feeling well brother ... let's talk later and I'll rest in the room first." I said softly before heading to my room.
Fuh ... I'm relieved. Good luck. The papers were put in my file.Hm ... There are 50 competitors that I need to get rid of but how? All of a sudden a painful memory popped into my mind. Chihiro says I'm too stupid and easy to be deceived, but Ayumi's dead a long time ago. The lipstick on the table is taken. I am Ayumi Nanase who is no longer as weak as I used to do anything for the Nanase clan despite being a killer! This is my promise. I patterned the mirror with a line around my neck with lipstick.
