FLASHBACK PART 3

Third Person's PoV

Almost 10 years after she pretended to be her twin, to be Calli.

Everything is going according to Roberto's plan.

Although there were times when she questioned if every information that Roberto fed her was right or not.

If she was really neglected.

If she was really unwanted.

Because, that's not what she saw when she entered the family.

Every Sunday, the family always allot a time to visit the grave that they believed was her.

But Roberto will meet her once a week to remind her about the main purpose why she was there in the first place.

Every time she will ask him about why her family was behaving the opposite way than she expected them to. He will not answer and instead will beat her to parts where it wouldn't be seen by anyone.

There's also a time when she want to confess the truth to her family, when she wants to say that she's the child they thought was already dead.

She badly want to say everything but was threatened by Roberto. Saying that he still have her twin with him. 

One wrong move and she will never see the sun rise ever again.

All the years she spent pretending as her twin, she finally understood why the man always forced her to study hard.

That's because Calli was a genius herself.

Things might go wrong if she wouldn't be able to beat or exceed her.

Now she's on college, taking business management to prepare herself as she will be the one handling their family business once she graduated.

________________

She's currently at the cafeteria. Her first subject just finished and she's here to take her lunch as there's an hour vacant before her next schedule.

She's lining up as a lot of students were also there to eat their lunch.

She's reading the book on her hand while waiting for her turn to kill some time.

The cafeteria suddenly went on silence which she got curious why.

She looked up from the book she's reading only to see someone running towards her direction.

Her eyes widened as she opened her arms to catch the woman who hugged her tightly.

She froze on her spot, holding the woman on her waist as a support.

It took the woman a minute before pulling away from the hug. The woman suddenly cupped her cheeks and squeezed it a bit hard from her liking in which made her hiss.

"It's really you." The woman said, breaking the silence. Amazed while examining her face.

She finally had the courage to pull the woman's hands away from her face.

Sadness suddenly flashed on the woman's gorgeous eyes.

She swear she suddenly want to put the woman's hands back on her cheeks when she saw how disappointed and sad the woman was.

She cleared her throat and was about to say something.

"I see, you're already having a reunion here." She saw her older sister standing behind the woman.
