Ellie’s POV
"Here, young lady, take your medicine this morning," the old woman said using her gentle voice.

I just finished eating with the help of Aunt Cora. I couldn't eat on my own so she patiently fed me. She asked for Arya's help to take care of me. I already know the two of them because they were the two people who showed up when I woke up yesterday and they even accompanied me last night just to make sure I could ask for help with whatever I needed.

They dropped foam last night on the mini living room floor and they slept there. I won’t be surprised that we fit in this room because it’s so spacious. In fact, the whole group of 15 people can spend the night here, they won't be crowded.

Aunt Cora handed me the two pills and when I took them, Arya then took the glass of water and gave it to me as well.

"Isn't the Doctor here yet?" I asked as I handed her back the empty glass of water. It's not obvious that I'm really thirsty.

I leaned on the headboard of the bed so that my back would not hurt. There are many pillows on my back that will support it. My back will not hurt here because of the extreme softness of them.

"Your Doctor visited you earlier while you were asleep. He has already checked you and also told us what to do to speed up your recovery."

If the Doctor has already visited, does that mean I will no longer know what my condition is? How do I know my true condition when the Doctor already checked on me while I’m sleeping?

My forehead furrowed. "Did he tell you how I am now or what happened to me? How did I get these wounds?"

Up to this day, I still don’t know what happened to me. Why didn't they answer my questions yesterday? I do not believe that the Doctor did not know the result of the examination done on me.

"We are strictly instructed not to let you know what happened until Señorito Keeion arrives. He is the only one who can tell you so just wait for him," Arya explained. "Soon, he will be here so don't worry and don't try to remember because all your questions will be answered," she added.

I rolled my eyes.

How many more hours will I have to wait? Why do I even need to know what happened from that man? They can tell me themselves. Obviously, they know what happened.

Do I really need to wait for him?

Who is that Señorito Keeion?

Why do they need to ask his permission? Like hello? This is my body! I have a right to know what happened to me.

I'm really anxious to know what happened to me!

Can't he adjust? He should hurry because I'm already bored here and I'm about to run out of patience. Do I know where I got these scars and wounds? Do I know if I am about to die? Do I know what stupidity I did? Why did I get to this point?

What if I have planned to end my life? Then I went up to the 10th floor building and jumped there? But I'm not allowed to go to heaven because I’m restricted to go in heaven, so I'm still here?

Okay, I was just kidding. I think my head hit really hard.

It’s annoying! Why can't I remember?

Are these scars and wounds I’ve gotten aren’t still enough? I can't even move my foot, my goodness! Do I deserve this? Even my memory is lost!

I became curious if I had a mole on my ass because of the misfortune I am experiencing now.

"For now, rest first to regain your strength." Aunt Cora stood up and took the tray where she put the utensils I used for breakfast. "Arya will take care of you now. If you need anything, don't be shy to tell her."

I just nodded.

Carrying the tray on which she had placed my food, Aunt Cora came out of the room.

Arya was left by my side and was busy arranging the medicines. She reads a paper and classifies each drug that is being prescribed.

It looks like the Doctor's order is listed on that paper, my medication schedule.

I let her finish what she was doing until she stood up and moved appropriately to the long sofa.

"A-Arya ..." I called her name.

She couldn't believe what she heard when she turned to me with a smile. "You know me?"

I wondered at her reaction. Isn't her name is Arya?

"You introduced yourself to me yesterday, didn't you?"

Yes, I don't remember anything that happened before I woke up, but it doesn’t mean that I also forgot what happened yesterday.

Disappointment drew on her face. She nodded, a sign that I was right.

"Yeah, I forgot. You know my name because Aunt Cora and I introduced ourselves." She smiled awkwardly.
"I just want to ask." She walked over to me so she could hear what I was saying. My voice is weak because I can't open my mouth properly yet. The scar on my cheek hangs down every time I speak so I feel pain in it.
"What is it?"
I look at her eyes directly. "What really happened?"
I can’t wait to find out from Señorito Keeion.
I'm hoping that I will get the answer from Arya.
Aside from being jolly, Arya looks kind. Maybe she can answer my questions. She doesn't need to worry because I won't tell anyone.
"Promise, I won't tell anyone that you told me what happened; I'll keep it a secret and pretend later in front of Senorito Keeion that I still don't know."
I thought I could persuade her to accept my request, but it didn't seem to work. She swallowed and diverted her gaze from mine. Her gaze is now fixed on the wall, and she is unable to return it to me.
She heaved a deep sigh. "I'm sorry, but I can't. I still can't tell you because it's a strict policy in this mansion that is never to disobey Señorito Keeion's order."
Why is it so hard for them to disobey him?
They are very loyal to what they call Señorito. It seems like he's a powerful man!
I just closed my eyes and ignored Arya. I can't get anything from her either because she is determined not to disobey their Señorito.
I kept getting annoyed with that person!
Almost everyone here is under his control. I am also under his control because I am myself, I do not know what happened to me because I still have to wait for him.
I just closed my eyes but my spirit remained awake. I'm not sleepy so I'm unlikely to fall asleep. Look, I'm so full of sleep. I also slept for over ten hours. I think this is one of the side effects of the medicine I am taking, it makes me sleepy all of the time.
The surroundings were quiet when I closed my eyes. I don’t know what Arya is already doing. But just a few minutes later, a loud bang on the door shattered the silence that prevailed here inside.
I immediately woke up to see who had made that noise.
"It's nice to be back!" said the man who suddenly entered the room.
He was wearing a formal black suit and traces in appearance that it held a high position here at this house or even in society. His posture was also good which gave him a more presentable appearance.
I will not deny that he is cute. Yes, he's cute and I didn't say he's handsome.
Because the definition of those two words is different for me.
The cute person for me is the one with the gentle face, very friendly to look at and I will not be difficult to approach because he looks kind and easy to get along with. And that was my first impression of the man in front of us today.
His gaze returned to me and to Arya.
He stepped closer to Arya and just passed my bed. The look he gave me was enough to know my situation.
"It's really true what Arya says you're finally awake. I thought she was just lying," he whispered. In the tone of his voice, he did not immediately believe what Arya said.
My attention is on them because they are next to each other. Maybe they have known each other for a long time.
Arya glared at the man. Arya was ready to speak but I preceded the woman.
"Señorito Keeion?" my confirmation.
There's a lot of traces in his body that this man is rich so there is a good chance that he is Señorito Keeion Arya and Aunt Cora are referring to.
He is the one who can answer my questions, especially about my condition which they are preventing me from knowing.
He laughed softly at what I said. "W-What? Did you say that I'm Señorito Keeion?" He still couldn't believe it. "Seriously?"
I raised my right eyebrow.
"Why? You're Señorito Keeion, right?" I asked.
Do I know who he is? I just based on his appearance so I concluded that he was Señorito Keeion.
The look he used to laugh at has now been replaced by too much seriousness. He sneezed while adjusting his suit and then adjusted his posture. "You're right." His voice also changed now. He acted as if he was imitating someone. "I'm Señorito Keeion, the young master. And I'm here to--"
He couldn't continue what he was saying because Arya immediately punched him.
Seriously? Arya's beating his boss?
I thought they were very afraid of their Señorito? Ultimately, everyone will follow his instructions and rules here in this mansion.
"Shut up, Tedson!" Arya was still not satisfied, she even pinched the man on his right arm. "You're taking advantage of her memory loss for your nonsense jokes. I'll report you to Señorito!"
The man smirked. "Oh, come on! I'm just joking and here you are, always serious. Can you also be serious about my feelings for you?" He looked at Arya's eyes directly.
Arya was even more annoyed. "Can you please stop teasing me?"
"I'm not teasing you, Arya. I'm serious, I'm always serious when it comes to you." The man adjusted his collar which added to his confidence. "Don't deny it. I know the impact of Tedson Ramirez on you. Don't be shy to admit your feelings to me as well."
“In your fvcking dreams!”
They continued teasing each other and it seemed like I was just not here. They ignored my presence. But it's okay because I'm enjoying watching them.
I noticed that someone was already blushing on cheek which caused me to smile secretly. I guess I'm the one who's interested in it.
They look good together.
"Hey! Don't believe him. He's not Señorito Keeion. He's just Señorito's personal assistant, his name is Tedson the asshole.” Arya introduced the man to me.
His name matches his stubborn personality.
I didn’t seem to make a mistake in my first impression of Tedson.
"Wait, I want to give justice to the introduction of this female tiger next to me. I'm Tedson Ramirez, the handsome personal assistant of Mr. Keeion Logan Ruiz." He emphasized the word handsome while looking at Arya, then he turned to me and bowed to pay respect.
I never thought he was a personal assistant. I thought he's Señorito Keeion because of his looks. Seriously? He's just a personal assistant but his posture and attire is like a CEO of a well-known company!
Are the people in this mansion really that rich?
"Anyway, where is Señorito?" Arya asked.
The way he talks to Tedson, it's like he's just a friend of hers. Well, I won’t be surprised. They’re teasing each other awhile ago and they are comfortable with it. Maybe Arya also has a high position here, but you won't notice because of her simple attire, she's just wearing a plain white shirt and shorts and she really feels at home.
Tedson sat down on the long sofa. He put his two hands on the back of his chair. "I left him in the garden, talking to Doc Guttierez."
Is he the Doctor who is monitoring me? Doc was going to give an update to that man while I was lying here in bed figuring out how I got these wounds.
I should be the first to know my condition!
Arya just remained standing next to the sofa where Tedson was sitting.
The man invites her to sit next to him but Arya almost kills him with a bad look but the man doesn't act like he is affected. Tedson's smile only widens on Arya's burying face. She was pissed off at the man's presence.
My attention is still focused on them.
"How long should I have to wait? I was waiting for him last night!" I've already started to vent my anger. "If he's already in the garden, why don't they come straight here so I can hear what the Doctor is saying. What? Is he the one who's lying here in bed complaining of pain from these wounds? No, right? How many hours do I have to wait for him? What is he, a gold? If I can just face that man right now, I'd really beat him."
I don't know why they were shocked by what I said. I'm just telling my rants!
A few seconds passed but they still did not speak.
"Even if that man is your boss here, I'm still not afraid to hit him! He can almost control your movements, that's why you can't tell me what happened. I'm really mad at him!"
My eyes widened at Arya as if she was talking to me with her gaze. She seemed to be telling me to stop and just keep quiet.
"Just show me Señorito Keeion, I'm telling you, I will give him a crunchy punch," I added.
I ignored Arya's signal. She's trying to make me stop.
"Really? You can do that?"
A cold voice suddenly prevailed inside the room.
I looked at the door and there was a burly man. Like Tedson was wearing, he was also wearing a black formal suit. But his looks, very scary. Contrary to all that was my first impression of Tedson.
His body was well-shaped and he stood gracefully. I can’t explain but his presence is frightening. I was even more frightened by his sharp eyes, even though maybe he didn't look at me on purpose, you could be mistaken that he was killing you in his mind because of his bad look. Maybe he gets into fights a lot because this is how he looks. His eye is the true meaning of killer eyes. He was literally deadly staring!
But despite his frightening appearance, I was still amazed at his attractiveness. He's the true definition of handsome and attractive man for me. His jawline makes me stunned.
Maybe he's Lord's favorite so he's so perfectly made. His face, as well as his body, was really well-formed and flawless.
He walked towards me and stared at me. He seemed to be examining my whole body. I can feel the awkwardness. I almost covered my body because I didn't know if he was fantasizing about me.
"Who are you, huh?'' My curious question. "Are you also one of Señorito Keeion's assistants? If not, maybe you're a butler? You're probably the leader of that man's bodyguards, aren't you?"
Tedson almost collapsed on the floor because he laughed so hard at what I said. He could no longer control himself to chuckle with laughter. Is he crazy? Did I say something wrong?
There is a possibility that the man in front of me is the one who protected Señorito based on his physique. Even though he looks super rich, I still can’t help but think that he’s still one of Señorito Keeion’s assistants.
Tedson made it easy for me so I will not allow my suspicion to be wrong again if I say that he is Señorito Keeion.
He looked at me without emotion and avoided that as well. He has no intention of answering me.
What an attitude!
Arya approached us.
Tedson followed Arya. He's still laughing and seemingly amused by what was happening. "Do you agree, are you a butler?" Tedson teased the man.
Tedson's laughter also stopped immediately and he spontaneously bowed when the man looked at him with an evil look.
His happiness stopped with just a glance from the man.
Hesitantly Arya caught my attention. "He is not Señorito Keeion's personal assistant and especially he is not a butler or bodyguard."
"Huh? Then, who is he?"
Arya gave me the opportunity to answer to the man I didn't know.
"I'm Keeion Logan Ruiz." Again, no emotion could be painted on his face. "Now, do it. You will punch me when you face me, aren't you?"
He move his face closer to give me a chance to hit him, but I couldn't because I was statuesque when I saw his perfect face up close.
All my courage before has now receded.
I thought nobody's perfect? Then, how can they explain it now? Why is there a man in front of me now that even his toenail is perfectly molded?
When a few seconds passed without him waiting for my hand to land on his smooth face, he moved his face away from me.
He remained standing on the side of the bed. "I didn't know that I let a peevish girl stay in our mansion?"
Was he conceived in the sea so his voice was so deep and cold?
I just swallowed and looked at him directly. I didn’t let him know that I was afraid of him inside.
"Okay. I'll just ignore what you said today because you don't know my rules yet. But I also want to let you know the very first commandment you need to follow while you are here. That is to learn to respect those rules. It's my decision and you should follow. Do you understand, Ellie?"
My eyes widened. Not because I was afraid of the policy he spoke, but because of the last word he said.
"Ellie?"
She called me Ellie.
Is that my name?
Am I Ellie?
He pulled out his right hand from his pocket with a bracelet. He showed it to me.
"You were wearing it when you were rushed to the hospital. It's the only thing we saw to find out your identity."
He handed me the gold bracelet he was holding.
When I had it in my hand, I immediately checked it. The gold bracelet has a daisy flower design. The quality of this bracelet is good, if I'm not mistaken, it's obviously really made of gold.
When I turned the bracelet over, I read a word engraved on it.
Ellie <3
