Chapter Seventeen: family reunion

Mayra's POV
"I'm pretty sure something happened to me in school at that time! I am with someone in the rooftop and he has an assistant with him and they ambushed me to go there and say lies to me! I swear it really happened!"

"Stop those lies, Mayra. You're just being silly. You just got dizzy, that's all," Mom scolded me.

"But, Mom, it's true! I swear something happened to me at that time in the rooftop!"

"Did you remember someone talks to you after you lost consciousness?"

I sighed heavily and looked down before shaking my head.

"Then, what you are saying is a lie. It's only from your imagination.The family guard just found you lying down in front of the mansion so how come something happened to you in there? You looked like you just fell because of exhaustion," Mom said and turned her back on me. "Stop this nonsense and get ready for your training. I don't want to hear any of this ever again. Do you understand, Mayrene?"

I nodded and answered, "Yes, Mom."

I sighed and go downstairs to see Tito Void, the husband of Tita Yna. He is the one who enhanced my combat skills more--well, erm, more like my assassination skills though. He is always with Tito Lucas and sometimes, with Tito Ty so I always have the best tutors.

They're pretty good looking actually, and also, talented that they'd be mistaken sometimes as ordinary businessmen but they are more than that than all people knew.

"Why are you sulking?" I heard Tita Friar's voice from behind. I looked and saw Tita.

"Tita Friar!" I exclaimed.

"I heard what you said to Olivia," she announced making my eyes widened. "Don't worry. I won't tell your Dad about it." I sighed in relief. "I believe you," she said that made me shocked.

"Y-You do, Tita?"

She smiled as she looked at me with teasing eyes. "Well, I prefer believing you more than anyone. I believe you than your mother," she said and sighed. "Well, after your training, what are you going to do?"

"Practice my assassination skills in one of the minor reapers, I guess," I answered. "Why, Tita?"

"Come with me after your training. We're going to your Dad's company," she said and left me.

I frowned as I stared at my Tita Friar's back, walking away from me as my thoughts wandered again to another dimension.

I wonder what she's up to.

Mare's POV
"Why do you want to meet up with me?" Tita Friar asked as soon as she sat down the chair across mine.

I met her up in a cafe without any information Mama knows. 

"I would not going to tell any further excuses," I said as I clasped my hands together. "I'm going to get straight, Tita. What happened to Mayra after Papa kidnapped her? Why can't she remember us? Why can't she seem to know us even the slightest amount of familiarization? Why can't she not even remember me?"

Tita stared at me before sighing. "So, that's what you wanna know." She leaned into the chair and crossed her legs. "What do you want to know first?"

"I want to know the condition of Mayra after Papa kidnapped her away from us," I answered.

She looked up and think. "Hmm... I remembered hearing her shouting to Flare to let her go. I still remember her cries, Mare. She wants to go back to your house. She hates your Papa so much because she finds out your Papa wed with another woman and he hurt your Mama again. Your Papa told her that it was all for the best, that's why he kidnapped her but I think different from my brother. I think it's wrong." She smiled sadly. "Your sister is a smart kid, Mare, not until she was locked up in a bedroom that became her own."
