Claire felt many pairs of eyes on her, which made her instantly stiffen and uncomfortable.
She slowly and cautiously raised her head to see all three men looking at her in astonishment…“I cuss the both of you, Scarlett and Mia. Now look at what you have put me through. How am I going to explain myself to them?” Claire said inwardly as she closed her eyes shut and hung her head low again.She feared these men are going to call her names like a freak or witch, as her parents and siblings normally call her whenever they hear her talking to her other personalities.“You… who are you? No! What are you?” Chase pulled Claire back from her thought with his dramatic question.He wasn't exaggerating, though. Even Ethan and George were stunned by what just happened in front of them.They clearly heard three different voices from the girl sitting on the bed. Though the voices somehow sounded the same, anyone with higher hearing can hear the differences between them.“I'm- I'm Claire, Claire Wilson,” Claire said softly. She somehow felt intimidated by the three men's gaze.“Did you just speak to yourself right now with different voices?” George asked. He couldn't hide his curiosity any longer. Indeed, it was his first time witnessing something like that.Claire shook her head in NO, clearly lying, since not only one of them heard her, but all three of them.“Liar!” Ethan stated matter of fact with his cold voice.“Oh, wow! I really love this one!” Scarlett pushed herself forward and said with a smile.Claire immediately forced her back again. For once in her whole life and after 11 years of developing double personalities, she regretted having them. She didn't know what to say anymore. She can't just tell them about her life as if she had known them right?The three men were more than stunned at the moment. They didn't miss the voice and her reaction as she spoke.Chase placed a finger under his chin and accessed Claire from up and down. He knew that her behavior wasn't because of the accident. It was indeed a minor accident and thus, she received minor injuries. So it shouldn't be the result of the accident.Moreover, the fact that she can interact with herself really well as if there's another person besides her shows that, she has indeed been doing it for a very long time.As a doctor, he immediately pointed out what he thinks might be the problem. Even though it was just his thought, he still had a hint that might be the case.Claire couldn't stand their gazes anymore. She hasn't even asked them where she was yet and what they were doing in a room with her.She was so stunned to see them the moment they entered the room. And Scarlett and Mia didn't even give her the chance to inquire about her whereabouts from the beginning.Claire knew she got into a car accident when Scarlett was in control of her body. However, she was clueless about what happened next as she felt unconscious.She then took in her surroundings and was shocked by the room she was in.If it wasn't for the beeping sound of the monitor and the drip connected to her hand, she wouldn't have known that she was at the hospital.The room is bigger than her entire room tripled. Not to mention how much it smells of wealth. How did she get herself in such a room?Both Mia and Scarlett were also overwhelmed by what they were seeing through Claire's eyes. But before they could come forward and say anything, Claire made sure to build a wall in her mind to block them.Claire thought one of the men may have caused her accident and that's why they were in the room with her.She made up her mind to thank them and leave. Besides, she doesn't belong to this kind of place. And moreover, her parents might be going crazy waiting for her.Not in a good way, though. They are just waiting for her to cook and do their laundry for them. And also receive beatings for the commotion she caused at her college.“I'm sorry for bothering you Sirs, and thank you for bringing me to the hospital and taking care of my injuries. I will pay you someday when I have money if I get the chance.” Claire said to them, not knowing which one particular brought her to the hospital.She tried to stand up from the bed, but immediately felt dizziness washing over her body.Ethan was quick enough to catch her on time before she could have fallen.“Just stay here for a while. You are still injured.” He said sternly and gently laying her down on the bed.Claire stiffened and goosebumps washed all over her body when he touched her. His perfume entered her nostrils and she couldn't get enough of it. He smelled so nice.Nevertheless, with a blushing face, she listened to him and lay back on the bed. However, her eyes never left his.Ethan continued staring at her beautiful and delicate, innocent face. He wondered how old she was. In his eyes, she looked so pure and innocent. Especially her black and white baby eyes.Chase cleared his throat to break their intense gazes at him before throwing a bomb at Claire.“Uhm Miss Wilson, as a doctor, I hope it's not too much to ask... Do you perhaps have double personalities (DID)?” Chase asked and made sure to watch her reaction very well to detect anything.Claire gasped, and her eyes went wide from his question.Her reaction confirmed Chase's suspicion, and he nodded to her.Ethan wasn't much surprised, as George. In fact, he had also considered such a fact a while ago.“N- no…" Claire stuttered.“Okay, don't be afraid. Actually, I'm Doctor Chase like I said before. I'm the doctor who was responsible for your minor surgery.And these two here are my brothers. The one standing near you was the one whose driver hit you with his car.And this one standing next to me is my cousin. We mean no harm to you, and we would try to help you if that's okay with you.” Chase explained to her with a small smile before continuing...“We can even try to help you get rid of your other personalities if you like. Well, we don't know how many are they, though. But we can make sure you are cured of them if you can tell us your story.” Chase said, with his doctor's demeanor.“NO!!!” Claire screamed, taking the men aback. Her body instantly started shaking out of anger.“I don't want to get rid of them. They are my sisters, and we have been together for fourteen years. I never want to get rid of them. Without even one of them, I might have died a long time ago! You have no right to say that to me even as a doctor!” Claire exclaimed as she started sobbing.How dare these men try to get rid of her sisters, her best friends, her saviors?Claire would rather die than live without either Scarlett or Mia. In fact, she can't live without both of them.The three men were stunned, indeed, there was something more about this little girl and they were curious about it for some unknown reasons.What could possibly be her story? How did a girl at her age have such a mental illness?Claire stiffened and sobbed hard when the thought of losing Scarlett and Mia kept ringing in her ears.At the back of her mind, Scarlett and Mia were also sad and scared, and angry at the same time.Scarlett has been with Claire since she was in her childhood after that unfaithful event that made Claire almost lose her life.And Mia came into her when everything was going against her. How can they possibly go away from her?For them, and just like Claire, they are like sisters and best friends with Claire rather than mere personalities. They have been with her and protected her all these while, so how dare these men try to separate them?As the owner of the body, most people with such cases will try their best to get rid of the other personalities if they developed such an illness. However, Claire's case is absolutely different. There's no way she will part ways with Scarlett and Mia. They are the only family she has who cares about her.Scarlett pushed forward forcefully despite the
Claire didn't know how to explain her situation, as she couldn't also remember most of her childhood memories. Yet, for the sake that they won't meet each other again, she thought it won't be bad if she just explains to them briefly.Claire closed her eyes and heaved a sigh before she started to speak…“In Scarlett's case, I don't actually remember when I developed her. And sadly, she also can't remember what happened which triggered her to become part of me.All I could remember is that I developed her when I wanted to save someone. The rest are all vague. I don't actually remember anything.And well, as for Mia, I developed her when I was in grade 6. I was often beaten up and punished by my parents whenever I failed my exams or even just normal classwork.They'd beat me up so badly to the point where I couldn't take it anymore. So I started wishing and hoping that I could become a genius who would know everything. I became obsessed with that wish which I think affected my mental he
All of a sudden, the three men heard a deep and sexy voice coming from Claire. It was a familiar voice they had heard earlier which undoubtedly belongs to Scarlett after Claire told them her story. It seems Claire has given her the control over the body.The men were still shocked at how they can easily communicate with each other as if they were three individuals despite being in the same body. “I caused trouble at the college today and Claire is afraid her fucking family might have been informed about it. I swear to fuck that one of these fucking days I'm going to cut all those dicks and asses in that house and then set fire to them!” Scarlett spat furiously without providing any care to those men in the room. She's one girl who doesn't give a shit about anyone or anything I'm the world.Now, to say the three men were shocked would be an understatement. Even Ethan couldn't mask his shock. What the hell just happened? They all stared at Scarlett who was using her right hand to
“I've already told you what happened. And before you can say anything, think well before you scold me. I'm just fuc--" Scarlett paused and looked at Ethan before continuing. Ethan smirked lightly when he realized the girl paused to filter her words because of him. 'Interesting' He mused inwardly. “I meant to say, you can't scold me because I was tired of how they bullied Claire all these years for no reason. I mean it's not her fault she's brilliant and they are fuc-- I mean they are failures,” Scarlett said, and bit her lower lips before she allowed Claire to take control of her body again.Claire didn't know why, but the calmness of all these three men felt familiar. She felt she had somehow felt that from them before. However, that was impossible, judging by the fact that they just met. Even so, such feelings were still there.“So… how are going to explain to your family about what happened at college today?” George asked as he lay his back against the wall.Claire shrugged her s
"SLAP!" Claire was slapped hard by her father the moment she entered the house.The slap was so hard that Claire's legs gave out and she fell to the ground. Her head started to ache from her earlier accident.“Dad!” Claire cried out. Shock was written all over her face. She knew she would fave some problems when she comes home because of what happened at the college today.However, being welcomed by hard slapped is not what she had anticipated. Her father could have even waited until she explains herself first. Claire just stared at him in shock. She just didn't know all her family members hated her. What did she ever do wrong to deserve their hatred? Why doesn't she feel welcome in her own family?Her father didn't even bother to inquire why her head was bandaged. He thought Claire just bandage it to escape his punishment.“Don't you ever dare call me your Dad, you stupid being!” Mr. Wilson said furiously as he stared down at his daughter with disdain. At that moment, he really reg
Claire couldn't help her tears anymore. She had had enough of all of them already. Why do they treat her like an outsider? What's actually their problem with her? This is her family. She is supposed to feel safe and protected here. However, it seems like this family is rather her nightmare. “Claire, let me out! Give me control. I promise to send her to the grave earlier than she would expect. How dare this old fart?” Scarlett said inside her head with a fume. However, Claire blocked her before she could even continue. The three of them had made a promise never to touch or let any of the family members know about them. However, Scarlett felt like this family needed some real beatings to teach them a lesson.“Ha! Look at you, Claire. You are older than I am. However, I think I have more brains than you. How can you make both Dad and Grandma angry? Aren't you being undutiful?” Claire's younger sister, Rita Wilson said with her sweet and fake innocent little voice.Kelvin is the older o
Claire ran as fast as she could without looking back or even checking where she was going. All she wanted was to run as fast as she could from her so-called family. The family had done nothing but brought her pain.She was really hurt by the revelation they revealed to her. So, after all the sufferings she had to receive from their hands, she is after all not a Wilson. How did this happen? Why is she so unlucky? Why did her real parents abandon her? Where is her real family? Where is she even going now? What is she supposed to do with her messed up life? Who will help her? What's actually in this life for her except misery?Many questions ran through her head, making her pause in her running. Her head and heart were in turmoil.She stopped at a street not so far from the Wilson Mansion and squatted down to cry. Claire cried for so long, as if crying could wipe away all her pains and troubles. Her legs even became numb from squatting for long, however, she didn't even care. She was i
Claire was still thinking about it when she heard Mia speak in her mind.“I think Scarlett is right, Claire. I support her suggestion. Let's seek their help first. And if they don't help, then we think of what to do next. Currently, I think that'd the only solution we have.” Mia supported Scarlett's suggestion. Claire thought for a while before she agreed to their suggestion. Indeed, she doesn't have any suitable solution now.“Let's go to Uncle Cole's shop to borrow his phone and call them to help us. I don't of they would help me or not.,” Claire said and started walking to a mini supermarket not so far from her college since she wasn't even allowed to use a phone. Scarlett and Mia nodded in agreement as Claire walked to their destination. It took a while before she reached the supermarket. “Good evening, Uncle Cole's. May I use your phone for a brief moment? It's really urgent.” Claire said the moment she entered the store.“Hey, Claire… How are you doing? I heard what happened a
