Chapter 3

MILDA LAY  her back at the soft mattress. She closed her eyes then sigh. She missed being with someone...  She missed her only family...  Her cousin. 

Emerald is her only family that treat her well. Emerald didn't looked at her physical appearance. Her cousin is very kind.

Milda look at the ceiling of her small apartment. It looks old but still, she chose this because she's short of money. She wants to save for her future.

Milda knows that she will grow old without someone by her side, so she's saving so when the times come,  she will not worry if she have some food to eat.

So wicked of me.

Then suddenly… The handsome man's face crossed her mind again. Damn. Leave me alone please...

He's like a god that came up to punish every sinner in the Earth. I'm thinking if I'm one of them...

Milda was about to sleep when someone throw something to her apartment's roof.  She quickly get up and get out angrily. When she open the door,  no ones there...  Just the cold wind that blew to her face.  She shiver then was about to close the door when something got her attention.

Milda pick up the normal size box at her front and shaked it. Her brows knotted when she heard nothing. She shrugged her shoulders then finally get in.

She sat on her bed and stare at the box like it will open itself. She sighed then pick it and open. She almost lost her mind when she saw what's inside...

Shit! Shit! Shit!

It's her picture.

When she's lying on her bed awhile ago...

She scanned all the pictures and find out that it's all her face. Some are stolen. Some when she's eating, waiting at the road side,  in her own apartment...

Damn!  Who would send it here?! 

I guess someone's making fun of me!  But...  No one knows her house...  Except her cousin,  but why would she do it?  It's creepy...  It's like,  someone's stalking me...

Milda was about to close the box when she saw that there's a letter inside it. She picked it up and open it with a shaking hands...

'PERFECTION WAS BEYOND TRUE...

ALWAYS SEEK FOR THE WRONG ONE... '

It's written in all caps letter. She felt the shiver run down her spine!

Shit!

MILDA CAME TO work late.  The box sender keep lingering on his mind. She suddenly felt like someone's watching her!  Oh my god!

She looked around and found no one...  Maybe she's just being paranoid.

Someone's just making fun of you...  Thought Milda  to herself.

She busied herself with working her ass off. She didn't even realized that it's past lunch time!  Shit!

Milda quickly hurriedly run to the cafeteria to grab some sandwich.  She don't have time to eat some heavy meal! Damn,  I'm starving to death!

When she started to eat, she only hear the sound of the air-con and the voices of some workers passing by.

When will I eat with someone? I'm tired being alone...

Is that because of my appearance?

What's wrong? Because I have glasses? Because I dress like an old grandma?  Was it my curly hair? Guess like everything about me is not acceptable...

If I'm them,  I would not talk to someone like me too...  But I don't want to force my self to change.  This is how comfortable I am. Take it or leave it.

I was pulled out to my deep thoughts when someone sit in front of me. Oh, he must be blind.

Milda didn't raise her head to see who is sitting with head until the man spoke.

"Why are you alone? " Said the baritone cold voice.

She quickly look up to see who it is and got shocked.

It's the man...  Who was making mess in her mind.

"A-Are you talking to m-me? " She bit her lower lip when she stutter.

The handsome man brows knotted. "Did you see someone with us?" He said sarcastically without any emotion in his eyes.

She didn't answered. She's just making her own self a laughing ass.

Milda eat her sandwich quietly and it's seem like the man didn't bother.

"You have a sauce at the side of your lips. " It's like,  he just said,  hi,  without any humour.

Milda quickly wiped her lips.

The handsome man tsked. "I said side,  not lips." Her eyes got widen when she felt the man's thumb wiping something at the side of her lips.

She was about to say thank you when she saw that the man licked the sauce off his thumb!

Suddenly, her heart beats fast and she felt her face heating...

Shit...  W-Why is my heart beating so... Fast?

She didn't know that the man left.

She sighed when she saw that it's already 2 pm.

I didn't even got his name...
