“Are you trying to tell me that your parents named you the three-eyed monster? That's just absurd“ Ava hits her palm on her head. She was so disappointed in herself, she thought it was a very easy task. Well, it's not going to be an easy task to find the three-eyed monster's name. Why?
“I had a name apart from the three-eyed monster but I can't even remember," the three-eyed monster said supporting his elbow on his lap as he rests his jaw on his opened palm. Thinking hard!
“But I know someone who can tell us my name, he lived for over a thousand years so he will know this.“ the three-eyed monster said as he snaps his finger as recollected that there is a person who knows about him like a palm.
“Are you talking about Nicole?“ Ava thought.
“Yes, “ The three-eyed monster nods, positively.
“Okay, I will call him after I find my cell phone,” the three-eyed monster said scanning his surroundings. Ava sighted the phone beside the three-eyed monster. She stretched her hand to the phone, crossing her hand on the three-eyed monster's lap. She hands over the phone to him.“here” she uttered.
He grabs the phone, mistakenly touching her hand. The door flung open making a weird noise. Someone barged in. They were both scared at first not until they noticed it was Lisa at the entrance with her widened eyes balled at them. Lisa was gnashing her teeth as she walked towards them with her clenched fist. She did not bother to close or lock the door.
“Why did you barge in like that? Is anyone after you to haunt you? I thought you declared that you will get home early tomorrow morning, what happened? What changed your plans?“ the three-eyed monster raised some questions at her.
“So you wished I would be gone for a whole day so you can continue having a great time my sister, Ava?“ Lisa's shaky voice let out.
“Wait what are you talking about, Lisa? Ava only came to pay a visit.“ The three-eyed monster asked, he was confused so was Ava.
“A visit you say? A visit when your daughter and wife are absent? Oh, is this how she pays a visit whenever I am not at home? “ Lisa yelled with her chest popped and her hands on her waist, shaking like jellyfish.
“What do you mean by Dana is absent? She went to her room to rest a few moments ago.“ The three-eyed monster explained.
Ava was just muted like a spectator, she has thoughts of how to get the three-eyed monster's name from Nicole. Does she start thinking that what if she fails?
“No! I am a winner!“ Ava summoned courage making her negative thoughts fade away.
“Hello, I'm still in the house. Ava only came to pay a visit.“ Lamar said as she was in a form of a cockroach swimming in a bowl of iced cream. Chilling!
“My husband, have you no shame? You have a grown-up daughter with me, your legal wife. Why are you flirting with this disgusting lady? Why is she even seated on our cushioned chair? Get up, you useless cocotte.“ Lisa ordered. Ava was still seated, watching them.
“Lisa, you heard what my granny said. She just confirmed that nothing happened between Ava and me.“ The three-eyed monsters clarified.
“Oh my, are you expecting me to believe your useless grandmother? Your granny loves Ava so much, she can never take sides with me. Do you remember she always says she wishes Ava has those boys for you instead of a Jinn? “ Lisa said with tears in her eyes pointing her finger at the three-eyed monster.
“Don't you ever call my granny names? Let this be the first and last time you throw an insult at my granny.“ The three-eyed monster says.
“Or else what? What will you do if I call her what she is? Will you beat me up?“ Lisa said pushing herself to him. The three-eyed monster stepped back.
“Or else I will file a divorce and I will make sure my lovely daughter, Loveth stays with me. Just one more insult about my granny." The three-eyed monster declared as he strode upstairs.
A gasp filled the room.
Lisa's jaw slacked as she covered her mouth with both hands letting herself hit on the floor.
Ava was also shocked, she undergoes an emotional sensation seeing pearls trickle down Lisa's eyes. Ava feels she is the cause of all these arguments and misunderstandings, she does not wish for Lisa's marriage to crash.
Ava followed the three-eyed monster upstairs, she needs to mend some things she broke in the three-eyed monster's home.
The three-eyed monster strode to his room, he is now fed up with Lisa's character. Before they got married, she was so nice, quiet, and friendly, she doesn't talk out of sense but now she acts like a crazy being from the gutter.
“What came upon her after we knot ties?“ The three-eyed monster asks himself, he does not feel safe whenever he is with Lisa anymore. Jealousy already overwhelmed Lisa's little heart, the three-eyed monster thoughts as he walked to Dana's room to confirm that she did not leave the room without his permission.
The three-eyed monster enters Dana's room in an unauthorized manner to ground her if she sneaked out of the house like what Lisa blurted out. He was so pleased glimpsing Loveth snoring loudly on her bed.
The three-eyed monster noticed Dana was sleeping unusually so he walks up to her, adjusting her body to the normal sleeping position, and removing her sword and sheath from her back so she won't get hurt. The three-eyed monster is a bit shocked hearing his daughter snore, she has never scored after she was born.
“Dana must be so tired!“
Unknown to the three-eyed monster, his daughter was out of his mansion, peeking at Lisa's strange movements. Loveth got suspicious of her mother going to an exact spot at the same time to meet an unknown person, her curiosity to know what was going on with her mother made her goose-walk after Lisa, earlier.
The arrow Sage fired at Dana made her go into a deep sleep. Lisa carried Dana to her room through the window, it was a bit easy to carry Dana for she is slim and her body is as light as a feather. That explains why she could control the wind, float, and do some abnormal stuff with gravity.
“I'm sorry.“ Ava apologizes as she walks after the three-eyed monster into Dana's room.
“Why would you be sorry? You only needed our assistance and Lisa is creating a fuss about it but insulting my grandmother that's bad. Sometimes I start to think she does not deserve me.“
“Don't say that! Lisa loves you so much, the purpose of her recent character is that she feels insecure about us staying together. Try to understand her. If a man was so close to Lisa just as I am to you, to the extent of getting married to break a curse, how would you feel if you were in her shoes, huh? Try to emphasize with her.“ Ava managed to convince the three-eyed monster.
He became resentful.
“That's true, Ava. I should have not been so harsh on her. Why did I say those hurtful words to my wife, Lisa? She stood by me through thick and thin, she stayed when everyone left even when she knew there were ninety-nine possibilities for her to die while staying with me.“ The three-eyed monster starts regretting those hurtful words he uttered to Lisa.
“What do I do? How can I make things up to her?“ The three-eyed monster said feeling remorseful.
