Beyond the Naked Eyes Chapter one
Chloe was panting loudly habang pilit niyang pinapakalma ang kanyang sarili. She tried to heighten her senses as the two men who kidnap her tightly put her in blindfold habang nakatali ang dalawa niyang kamay. She tried to wriggle to ease the pain on her wrist pero hindi man lamang lumuluwag ang pagkakatali nito. She heard their murmur. "Ano ang kailangan nila sa akin? Ransom?" She thought to herself. Her fear is an understatement. She wondered kung sino ang may pakana nito at kung bakit. She was confused about how they entered the house without alerting the alarm system. The last thing she expected na magiging ganito ang kahihinatnan ng kanyang gabi. She was in bed reading her books when a loud thud was heard downstairs. Chloe wondered at first if the helpers were back. It was out of the blue na pinayagan ng kanyang madrasta na bigyan ng pahinga ang lahat ng drivers at yaya nila. She thought it was odd but didn't mind calling her out about it. Bothered by the unusual sound Chloe

A loud painful scream echoed the walls of the cabin ng mahulugan si Chloe ng nagliliyab na kahoy mula sa bubong. It landed on her face, and she felt the horrifying burn on her skin. "Help me!" She shouted as her life depended on it. She's losing her will to live, she's now feeling dizzy as the thick smoke penetrates her lungs. Her voice sounded far as her consciousness slowly departs. "I'm going to die." She thought again inwardly. She was about to give up nang bigla niyang makita ang bitak sa pader, the integrity of the wood had weakened and she just needed to gather the last resort of her energy to kick it off and flee. Chloe coughed painfully as she tried to concentrate on her actions. She pulled the broken chair across the tiny room and with all force ibinato niya ito papalabas ng cabin. She heard the wood crack, and she used that as an opportunity to usher herself out from the burning inferno. She felt the cold air mixed with the heat when she could now see the darkened area wh

"There were burn marks on her face and arms. We can do a simple graft to heal her skin but that can take years." The doctor uttered explaining the situation to the man in front of him. "So, what will be your recommendation doc?" He asked, his tone was devoid of emotion."You know your wife, Mr. Ramirez. As her guardian, do you consent that we do plastic surgery with her?" the physician asked.Luke sighed. "Kung iyan ang magpapakalma kay Ruby once she wakes up then I think that would be the best choice." He replied. His wife regards beauty as the only precious thing in the world, she is selfish and borderline narcissistic, kung makikita ni Ruby ang damages ng aksidente sa kanyang katawan Luke can already anticipate how this would impact her permanently. Her fragile state of mind would be intolerable, so he better anticipate it ahead of time. He has no patience to listen to her complaints and self-loathing.His mind was set on what options to take after that conversation with the surge

One morning, the same warm nurse went in and was smiling at Chloe. She was doing her usual rounds, and she immediately took Chloe's vital signs and checked her fluids. "How are you feeling today?" she asked, not expecting that she could verbally respond. Chloe nodded as she tried to smile underneath her dressings. The nurse then checked her lymph nodes and very carefully told her to try to speak. Chloe tried to clear her throat and a breathy sound came out. She swallowed wanting to ease the discomfort. “Let's try again. Why don't you try to say Hi to me?" the nurse told her. Chloe then attempted to produce the word; when she did, she was extremely happy when she finally heard her voice. "Hi," she whispered. It was hoarse but undeniably her voice. She smiled. "We will practice more on this so don't strain yourself. But today, today is a good day for you." She excitedly said and Chloe waited for her news eagerly. "We are going to remove your bandages at last. You can now see yours

The plan she had thought of for days continued to hunt her, replaying in her mind the pros and cons of what the consequences would be if she decided to push for it. “But what about Ruby's family?” she asked herself, a deep sense of remorse hit her chest, the nagging thought kept her awake for days now. Chloe knew that what she was doing was wrong, immoral, and dishonest, a part of her was conflicted and ashamed for even entertaining it, however, she has a family to protect too. “Someday Ruby, I will ask for forgiveness, and I will make amends for what I did to you for the rest of my life. I promise you that” she whispered. After she confronts her wicked thoughts and tries to reconcile with them, her mind prompts the image of Ruby’s alluring husband. If she would assume her life, she would have to deal with him no matter what. In hindsight, the married couple has issues. No wonder the handsome husband looked at her with contempt and a sneer of disapproval; his words were harsh and c

Chloe tries to ignore the nagging feeling when out of nowhere Luke speaks. "Zoie, you have not said hi to Daddy yet" Luke uttered breaking the spell. "I am jealous of Mommy now," Luke said na may halong tampo sa kanyang boses, he even pouted his lips adding to the effect. Chloe carefully observed a different version of Luke as he interacted with his daughter. His usual scornful look that she had grown accustomed to was now replaced with warmth, longing, and admiration. She watched as his eyes spoke volumes, expressing his emotions that she had not seen before, and Chloe couldn't help but feel a sense of tenderness wash over her as she watched the genuine affection he held for his child. He must have loved his daughter very much. "I miss you, Daddy! I love you!" Zoie turned her attention to her father this time, Luke scooped her in his arms and embraced her tightly. "You are a big girl now! You are growing so fast!" he commented, and Chloe was mesmerized by the exchange. She real

"I'm sorry" she replied softly, her heart heavy with understanding. She was sorry for Luke who had to put up with his wife. She was sorry for Zoie who probably didn't feel the love and affection from her mother. "Isn't that a bit late now?" Luke’s words pierced like daggers, aiming to maim her. "Why are we still married anyway?" She blurted out unexpectedly, instinctively covering her mouth, wanting to suppress the words. A feeling of regret washed over her. Chloe knew she had no right, no right whatsoever to interfere in this relationship. At that moment, she wished she could disappear into thin air. Strong hands were on Chloe's shoulder as he held her close. It was almost painful how tight his grip was. "You are hurting me" she whispered, habang may takot sa kanyang mga mata. Luke slowly loosened his grip, yet his eyes were full of malice, penetrating her soul. "I don't know what charade you are pulling now. If it weren’t for Zoie and your sick games of manipulation, I would fil

Luke arrived at the house well past midnight. His afternoon encounter with Ruby had made him go spiral, causing him to hastily retreat out of the mansion away from the witch. He was eager to distance himself from her presence. Exhausted, Luke needed to clear his mind, so he turned to work as his best distraction. "Magandang gabi po sir" pagbati ni Lisa dito. He nodded. "Good evening, where is Zoie?" He directly asked. "Natutulog na po sir, napagod po iyon sa kakalaro sa Mommy niya" she narrated and as Luke listened to Lisa recount the events, he swiftly turned his head around in disbelief. "Mommy? Si Ruby?" He clarified, shocked by what he had heard. "Yes, po sir. Si Mam Ruby po. Siya din po nagpakain kay Zoie kanina sa hapunan" she added to her story. "Si Ruby?" He repeated the same question, the information not quite registering in his mind. "Opo sir." Lisa yet again confirmed. He couldn't believe it. In three years, Ruby had never shown any care for their daughter. Hearing w
