It's been a week since Psyche started working at DWSI as my Temporary Secretary and if you're gonna ask me, she's a huge nuisance. First, she made me a poison coffee. Second, she got late on her first day. Third, she doesn't really like getting bullied so she's fighting back in a most annoying way. And last but not the least, she forgot to saved the file that I asked her to do so.

I almost got trouble because of her, not just once but more than thrice now. I don't know why but I feel like she's trying to get me fired from my current position in the company, I hired her because her Grandmother asked me. Aside from that reason, I also wanted to see her every day. I missed her so much but I can't do anything. I need to hold myself back or else.

Today is the first day of school and I'm actually excited because I've already transferred back to St. Valentine, in other words? Thor, West, Jared and I are complete again!! The Kings Of Valentine are back!! It's really great to be back after a fucking year. I really regretted leaving them behind but they all knew that I had no choice.

I left St. Valentine to continue my studies somewhere else but Thor, Jared, West and I are still seeing each other because of our missions and of course? We're hanging out every weekends. Drinking a lot until our stomach can no longer it is what we are doing every time that we get a chance to go out and have fun.

Kissing a random girl was the hardest part of my mission but even if I don't want to do it, I couldn't refuse. Those girls are also paid to act and just like me, they were never given a choice. They are doing it because of money while I'm doing it because I wanted to protect the woman that I loved the most.

What I had to do was pretty simple, all I have to do was stay away from Psyche but it's not as easy as it seemed. I love Psyche more than my own life, she's my everything and without her? It felt like I'd rather be dead than alive.

Of course, I'm also wondering why Code II haven't contacted me about what's happening right now. I'm certain that he already knew about what Señorita Anastasia did, what is he planning this time? Is everything alright now? Can I finally get back with his Daughter??

At times like this, I'm pretty much clueless. If he's not gonna contact me, I might do something unnecessary out of curiosity.

A long time had passed, two years may not be a long time but a lot did happened and all of them are aware about it. Psyche and I suffered more than they did, it felt unfair but I guess that's just how life works. All we ever wanted was a peaceful life with each other but it seemed like destiny is being a bitch over and over and over again.

Psyche made a difficult choice and that's the reason why she suffered from the pain of going. I badly wanted to stay with her but no matter what I do, I couldn't afford do so. Because of our situation, I already thought of quitting my job as an Agent but I also figured that if I did that, I won't be able to protect Psyche anymore.

All I want is Psyche's safety, that's all that matters for me.

Right now, I'm still inside my bedroom because I'm busy fixing my necktie. It's the first day of school, I have to look neat and clean. I know that I'm already handsome but of course, hygiene is the most important part of being good looking.
