Adelina's pov:

I wake up and find myself on my bed with Andreas looking at me, and there's a strange man with gorgeous green eyes and blond hair next to him. I don't like the boy, but his eyes are just....gorgeous.

"You wake up!" Andreas says. I look at that boy and then look at Andreas in confusion. Andreas asks him to leave us for a minute, and the boy does so.

"He is a stranger who helped you with Leonor and Mason...he refused to leave, and Hugo insisted on making him stay."

"Help me?! What happened?" I ask. He helped me? from what?!

"You passed out on your way home, Leonor, and this stranger helped you while Mason came here to check on you."

Mason was here?! I fainted on the street?! lots of drama happened.

Hugo insisted on him to stay....so he knows him. Oh God.

I sight. "This boy is Hugo's friend, right?"
Andreas nods.

They let Mason and Leonor leave and this boy to stay!!

"Can you ask him to leave? I don't want him to stay." I ask Andreas with weakness in my voice.

Andreas get out off my room, and within a while, my door knocked, and this guy came in.

"Hey, hope you get better. I am gonna leave now. If you need help, you can call me; my number is with Hugo. Take care of yourself." The boy says while looking at me in a strange way; which made me uncomfortable. I give him a nod with a smile; a confused one.

Of course I won't call him, it's enough for me that he is Hugo's friend.

I want to read something to entertain myself as Andreas told me not to leave my bed; he is so nice, he told me he will take care of all my chores and do it for me. He is the best in this awful, dreadful house.

Maybe I can pick a fantasy book or maybe a romantic one....or Manga..... I love reading Manga. Maybe watching a movie is better. Or drawing?! No, no, I won't draw, not even picking up a single pencil..... how about my bucket list? There is something I want to add to it.

I get up from the bed and go to the closet, I stand on my toes to reach the top of the closet; where I hide things. I keep trying to feel anything with my hand, and finally, I reach a box. I grab it. It's my pink shoe box, I hid there most of my stuff when I was younger. I go to sit on my bed with the box in my arms. It's dusty, so I have to search for a towel or anything to clean it.

I open the box after cleaning it, and a huge smile spreads on my face, I can't hide it although of all the pain I feel.

This list has lots of things that maybe others find stupid and useless, like what my father thinks. But for me, I really want to do these things.

My smile got bigger when I glanced my bucket list and saw the first thing on top of it, and the only thing that I did from it. 'Stargazing with Diego' I still remember this day. It was one of the best days I had in my whole life.

I keep staring in the list for a while, exactly staring at the first thing in it. I wish I could have more time with him. I feel tears trapped in my eyes, I keep trying to prevent them from sliding down and then grab a pen to write my new wish.

I keep thinking and then find my hand writing without even thinking of it twice.
'To kill father, or at least see him while he dies in front of my eyes.'
I know that sounds bad, but I feel a strang peace feels me. I want it so bad; but I know it's just a stupid list, and I can't even look at an injured puppy. How would I kill him?! Just thinking of the idea and how he will be begging me to let him live just gives me relief.
