CHAPTER 8🌻

Busy people inside the studio of Sorn Photograpics, editing their recent photos and videos. Importing was easy but the editing, it will take about a month to finish it.

After 2 months, they are still working until morning. Faye couldn't say no to her clients that's why they needed to finish everything before they can accept another project.

"Hello dad, is there something wrong?" Faye connected her earbuds to her phone

"Dear, we need to talk" her father's tone were mixing with worry

"Right now? I still have a lot work to finish dad, can't it wait?" she replied

"It's about paopao" Faye stopped working and straightened her back when she heard her first love's name

"What about her?"

"We need to talk in private. This is confidential"

"Yes dad. I'll be there" Faye stood up seriously and gathered her things. She wore her cap and exited the studio. She's driving so fast, her heart was beating too loud

"Finally, I found you" she said and wiped her tears

She ran inside their house and her mother told her to go directly inside her father's study.

"Dad" Faye opens the door without knocking

"Dear, Calm dow first and sit" Her father gave her a water

She closed her eyes and sat on the couch, she tried to calm her nerves but she couldn't. She's very eager to know about her father's discovery about her dearest

"Faye, my private investigator has found another information. This news was buried a long time ago, and I'm sorry for what I'm about to show you"

Her father gave her a tablet, she saw an old newspaper. It was very old, and there's a lot of parts that wasn't clear anymore but her eyes found the body of a little girl on a white dress. Her head was disheveled and it was leaning on a big rock. Her face was covered with her hair, and a necklace that was made of metal is dangling on the rock. It was the necklace Faye gave her before she left. Faye could not continue reading the article because her eyes were clouded with tears, her breathing thickened and she struggled to breath.

"Sorn, breathe with me" her father unbuttoned her blouse so she can breathe

"I can't," She's a crying madly
"That is not real, m-my pao-paopao is still alive! I can still feel her d-dad" she was gripping her father's chest

"Please dad! Give me a clear evidence, I don't want to believe that single picture!" she shouted and her mother heard her

"Sorn, but the necklace she was wearing. It was the same to the one we made" he said in a matter of factly

"No, no, no no!" she was punching his chest and stumbled on the floor gripping her hair
"She's still alive! My Paopao is still alive!"
She cried so hard

"Oh my god Faye!" her mother hugged her while crying

"Mom! She's still alive right? My Paopao is still alive. We promised to meet when we get older and get married!" she didn't care about her self anymore. She was getting her hopes these past months but now, her world is starting to crumble

"You need to get yourself together Faye" her mother hold her shoulders

"Mooom. I can't live without her. I felt guilty for leaving her all of a sudden, I didn't even came back for her. This is my fault! I should have come back!" she cried and cried
