These dark blue piercing eyes is the first thing that people noticed on me. I can't help but to admire my deep ocean blue eyes and angelic face as I stare at myself in this huge human-size wall mirror. Numerous people have said that I have the most beautiful and innocent pair of eyes but it's far from reality. My eyes had already witness a lot of the most indecent and awful crimes in human history and that is because of Hades Valderama; my father.
I woke up again because of that horrible scene in my dream. When will it stop? Even though I would try to distance myself from my father's huge evil mansion surrounded by ruthless killers and trained assassins, I always found myself crawling back to him. He's still my father after all. I told him so many times that we should just moved on and make a new life but he'll always get mad whenever I'm saying that. He said that he has a purpose of doing that and I shouldn't stick my nose to his business.
"Ametrine, are you awake? We're gonna be late. Hurry!" I heard Uncle Louie said. Uncle Louie is the brother of my dad who took care of me, he's the father of my cousin; Zach, He help me in so many ways when he learned about what happened to our family, so, I treat him as my second father.
After years in living here in Germany. We decided to go to our hometown; Philippines, with my cousin, Zach and Uncle Louie, because Dad is sick and he needs us there. I just hope that he changed already. He's not getting any younger.
I scratch my eyes as I heard the plane landed, this is the country where my dad met my mom. We were so happy back then. I smiled bitterly as I reminisce it. I just get back to reality when Zach tapped my shoulder.
"Hey, are you okay?" I look at him and I realized that if my brother was only alive he probably the same age as Zach. I nodded at Zach and gave him an assuring smile.
I sigh. How I miss my family...
We just rest for a while and ate, after that we decided to finally visit my father where he was confined. I look at the old man lying on the bed. I noticed how his hair turned gray, his skin turned pale and how his body became thin.
I walk and went to his bed, I hold his hand tightly and I place it on my lips. I whispers how much I miss him. It's been years. Dad, why aren't you telling me anything? I have so many questions to ask but I don't want to stress him out, it will just worsen his condition.
"A-ametrine... m-my daughter." I was startled and I immediately look at my dad. I slept and just woke up because of his fingers that's running in my hair.
"D-dad... I'll call the doctor!" I was about to get up but he immediately tell me to calm down and just stay on my sit beside him.
"I have so many things to say to you, Ametrine. I like to s-say s-sorry for all the things that I've done in the past to our family, your mother; Francesca and your brother; Aki left us so soon, I was too occupied in mourning to their death that I-I forgot that I still have you... I'm so sorry, hija and now I learned that I should have just listened to you back then." I felt my tears starting to run from my face and I let my dad's hand on my face as I listen to him.
"Ametrine, I already talk to our lawyer about my last will and testament---" he's wiping my tears while saying that.
"Dad, what are you talking about?!" I accidentally raised my voice because of what he said.
"A-ametrine, live, be happy and have your own family. Promise me that when I'm gone, okay? I wouldn't want to see my princess cry. Please, stop the tears. Hmm?" I heard him say that as the line in the machine turned into straight line.
I felt someone's warm tears from my face, as I started to open my eyes. I met the ocean dark blue eyes that resembles mine.
"Ametrine! Ametrine! Oh my god! She's awake! Call the doctor now!" I heard my mom's loud voice as I'm starting to open my eyes, the white ceiling welcomed me. The doctors and nurses starting to assist me. Why am I in the hospital? What happened? They're asking me if I can hear them and asking me to blink my eyes as an answer. I blinked.
What's really happening? I thought my mom is dead? Why is she here? There's a lot of questions running in my mind right now, but the more questions I ask myself the more my head ache. My throat hurt, I'm so thirty. I can't open my mouth yet but I like to ask mom.
After days, I gained some of my strength back and I feel like I have the courage now to ask mom about what happened after eating.
"Mom, where's dad? I don't know if it's just a dream but I- I thought y-you're d-dead and my Aki; my brother---"
"Ametrine, You're in coma for five years and your father is still the same, he's still on his mansion training his assassins and your brother, he's studying." She said it so casual but confusion was all over her face.
I felt the loud beating of my heart as I heard that. I am dumbfounded and couldn't believe it! did I just saw and experience the future during my dreams or was it nothing at all?
