Cali’s Pov:
No;
I wasn’t dreaming. There’s noway I could be dreaming.
It was…
It was him;
My Miquel.
He was standing right in front of me. Staring at me.
“Miquel?” I called again, a little quiver in my voice.
A tear dropped from my eye and immediately, I ran into his arms.
“Miquel!” I squealed as I hugged him tight, wrapping my hands and legs around him.
G0sh! I couldn’t believe this.
“Cali” he cooed as he wrapped his hand around my waist.
I just couldn’t believe this. It was more than a dream come true.
What happened to him? They said he was gone, right?
I thought I was never gonna see him again.
“Cali; hey, Cali. Are you alright? Wh…..What happened to you? Were you hurt?” He asked as he pulled me away from the hug to look into my face.
I held the tip of his shirt and wept.
The pains came driving in real bad.
“Diane..”, I whimpered, trying to talk about something else.
“She’s hurt, Miquel. She….She was shot. We need to save her, please”.
He stared at me and probably thought Duane was the only reason I was crying.
I bent my head but he cupped my cheeks and lifted it up.
“Cali” he called softly.
“Were you kidnapped…by Mykel?” He asked and I felt my heart skip as I nodded tearfully.
He didn’t say a word and I looked into his eyes.
“Please Miquel. Just get me out of here. Diane….we need to save her, please” I whimpered but he still didn’t say a word.
Oh God! Please, don’t tell me he’s getting angry already. This isn’t the right time to get angry.
“Miquel…”
“Come on” he signalled on me follow him into the car and I did.

I sat in front of Diane who laid quietly on the bed.
We were back at the institute and she was being treated at the clinic.
“You feel better, huh?” I asked her, my hand on the edge of the bed.
“Yeah” she smiled faintly.
A nurse was fixing drip on her.
“Any news on Nina? Was she captured?” She asked.
“Yeah, she was. I heard she’s currently locked up” I told her and noticed a look of relief on her face.
“Diane” I called after a pause and she looked at me.
“Why did you do it?
Why did you risk your life to save me?”
She smiled and stared up at the ceiling.
“Well…maybe because I wanted to turn you to a mosquito” she said and laughed and I laughed with her.
“Thank you, Diane” I said after the laughter.
“It means a lot to me”
She didn’t say a word but just smiled and I could tell she was feeling dizzy.
“I’ll leave you to get some sleep. Take care of yourself, okay?” I told her.
“Yeah..sure. Thanks” I tapped her hand before standing up.
I walked out to the door and found Miquel’s guard – Zack – still waiting for me.
Well, Miquel had assigned him to stay with me.
“Going back to the room?” He asked and I thought for a while.
Miquel wasn’t there.
“Take me to Miquel” I told him and he nodded and started walking away while I followed.
It was so dark already and only few students could be spotted around.
We continued walking for a long time and finally, he stopped at the entrance of a building.
“He’s in there – with the spy” He said and I peeped inside.
Oh! Nina was there? The btch?
I sighed and decided to go in for a look.
And as I walked in, I found her right there in the middle, tied like an animal.
Her hands were tied on both sides and her legs didn’t touch the floor.
She probably heard footsteps and lifted her head to look at me.
“Cali…” She called fraily.
She looked so weak and pathetic.
I stared at her and felt anger rise in me, recalling what I went through because of her.
Miquel wasn’t in the room.
I kept walking but stopped when I’d gotten close enough – close enough to slap her -_ cause I did.
I gave her a resounding slap.
“How dare you, Nina?” I asked tearfully.
“How dare you?
“I thought you were a friend? I trusted you when no one else did. I loved you when you felt the whole world was against you. I took you like a friend. But what did you do, btch? You betrayed me!! You were only a wolf in sheep clothing! You animal!” I rasped and hit her again, recalling everything that m0nster – Mykel – did to me.
The memories brought more tears to my eyes.
“I hate you, Nina. And I regret the first day I set my eyes on you”.
“I’m sorry, Cali” she whimpered.
“I didn’t mean to do it”.
I glared at her and just then, heard footsteps from behind and I turned to see it was Miquel and his guards.
He had his eyes fixed on Nina as he walked in.
“Zack” he called without looking at him.
“Yes, boss” the guard replied.
“Escort Cali to the room”. He instructed.
Huh?
His eyes were so cold as he stared at Nina.
“Okay, boss” the guard replied and came to me.
I continued staring at Miquel, but he didn’t even blink or make any attempt to look at me.
“Cali, please” Nina wept.
“I’m sorry. Don’t let them hurt me, please”.
I turned to look at her and she was in tears.
“What’re you waiting for, Zack? Take her away” Miquel said icily and the guard held my hand .
“Hey; come on” he hushed and started leading me away.
“Cali, please!!!” Nina shirked.
“I’m begging you, please! Give me another chance!”
More tears streamed down my cheeks as I walked away and tried not to look at her.
“Cali!!” She continued wailing and finally, I got out of the building and took a deep breath.
Oh God!
“Come on, Cali” Zack said, urging me to continue walking with him.
I sniffed and wiped my face before proceeding.
“Nooooooooooooo!!!” I suddenly heard Nina scream and I turned in fright to look back at the building.
Oh my God! What’s going on there?
“Come on, Cali. You shouldn’t be out here” Zack tapped me, bringing me out of my fright.
Oh God!
She screamed again and I flinched.
I really needed to get out of here.
I turned to Zack and we continued walking and this time around, my pace was faster.
I just wanted to be away from the scene.
We finally got to the room and he stood outside the door while I went in.
As soon as I got in, I sat on the bed and buried my face in my palms – in tears.
Why did this have to happen, huh? Why?
Oh God!
I wept for a long time and finally decided to clean up in the bathroom.
I got in, took off my clothes and laid in the soapy bath tub.
As the cold water touched my private area, I suddenly recalled all Mykel had done to me – how he used me mercilessly – beat me up and r@ped me. I still couldn’t believe such unfortunate circumstance could befall me.
Why me?
I closed my eyes as my tears got mixed with the water. It was so hurtful – so hurtful.
How do I get rid of this feeling?
Suddenly, I heard the door open and opened my eyes to see Miquel walking in and I panicked a little.
He had a bloodstain on his shirt.
I twitched and buried myself deeper into the foamy water. And thank goodness it covered me enough.
“Hey” he called calmly and sat on the edge of the tub, facing me.
Good lord! I could see so much hate in his eyes.
“H…hi” I said in a cracked voice and gulped anxiously.
He stared at my face for a while without saying a word and slowly, he dipped his hand into the water.
“Cali” he called.
“Can I ask you a question?”
I just nodded.
My heart raced so fast. Why do I have a feeling he might ask me about it?
“When I’d found you” he began.
“Why weren’t you putting on a p*nt?”
