“I’m sorry” he apologized
“Let’s give it one more try” he added and held Desmond hands agin

★Afterlife★
“Nirva’ Desmond called and she turned to him at once
“Why are you here?” She asked
“To take you back home” Michael appeared
“You need to come with us. You don’t belong here” Desmond grabbed her hand
“Just let me be” she yelled, yanking his hands off
“You know I can’t do that….so pls just listen to me and I promise to explain everything to you”
” Listen to him Nirva at least for my sake” Michael pleaded and she burst into tears
“Where were you when I needed you?” She cried hitting her tiny fist on Desmond’s chest continuously
“I am sorry.. it’s my fault..I promise to fix everything” Desmond said as she kept hitting him..
“I’m sorry” he said again and pulled her into a hug
“No one loves me here” she cried on his shoulder
She buried her face in his chest and wept. Somehow she felt safe in his arms
“It’s my fault” he said stroking her hair gently
“You need to come with me Nirva, you don’t belong here and if we stay here any longer, you won’t be able to follow me back,,,, I don’t want that” Desmond sobbed
“Are you really crying?” She asked amidst tears
She raised her head slowly to look at him
“Okay fine.. I will come with you on a condition” she said, sniffing back her tears
“Any thing” Desmond quickly said and she smiled
“Nevermind” she said and Micht chuckled staring at them
“Can we go now?” Desmond asked holding her hands
“Then do you promise to tell me about the Sera of a girl?” She asked but Desmond just stared at her
“You haven’t answered me. It seems you don’t want me to come with you” she grumbled and was about to sit on the floor when Desmond pull her back
“Even without the promise, I will make sure you see for yourself.. though you should have seen it when I kissed you back then, but you push me off and landed me a Slap” he sigh
“I’m sorry about the slap earlier…but you can’t go back on your word okay? I need to know why you always call me sera” She said
“Yeah” he nodded..
“Can we go now?” Michael chipped in
“Sure” she smiled and held Desmond’s hand
★ Real life★
Nirvana immediately released a loud sneeze but she was still fast asleep
“She’s breathing” Michael gasp at the now conscious Nirvana
“You did well” Desmond smiled at him and he did same
“You can go now” he added and Michael left without saying a word
Her bruises were gone and her bloods cleaned
“You need to change your clothes” he said and undressed her using his powers. Then helped her with one of his shirt which were barely covering her thighs
“Good night” he said and planted a kiss on her forehead before walking back to the sitting room

★McAdams mansion★
“Jasmine” Albert called, he had taken the appearance of Lucy
“Mom?” She replied
“This is what I was telling you Jasmine… You think what happened to you was natural? No it wasn’t. That moment the pain started, she needed her shadow”
“Wait, but it’s not our 21st birthday yet..
“I know, but Nirvana is becoming greedy, she knows the truth remember..she needs her shadow. Jasmine you need to kill her before she kills you”
“I don’t wanna believe this mom.. Nirvana can’t do such a thing… she likes me a lot. She can’t even hurt a fly, why will she kill me?” Jasmine asked
“That’s because you and Desmond are destined..she is jealous and wants to kill you …. but before that, make sure you kill her first. If you kill her, you won’t have to die and her soul will come to you making you a full human and not just a shadow” Albert said
“I died because of her remember? she’s of no good, I regret birthing her. Just imagine you were the only child I had, I wouldn’t have died right? Albert said
“She killed me Jasmine and now she is planning to kill you”
“Jasmine kill her to avenge me,,,, kill her if you wanna stay alive”
“Kill her!! Kill her!!” Albert chanted continuously before disappearing
****
Mom!!!” Jasmine screamed back to reality
“It’s morning?” Jasmine ask no one in particular as she yawned
“Jasmine” Gabriel called running into her room
“Are you okay? You fainted last night”
“I’m fine dad…I need to get to school now” she replied entering the bathroom
“But Nirva isn’t home yet.. I’ve contacted the police and they said I should contact them again if she doesn’t come back in a day, but she’s not here yet” Gabriel said but got not reply from her
He sigh deeply before exiting the room
“What if something really bad has happened?” Gabriel panicked
*******
Desmond mansion
Nirvana eyes twitches as the warm sunlight shone on her face.
She licked her lips before snuggling closer to the big pillow on the bed without opening her eyes.
“Soft bed, nice smell” she Mõ@ned inhaling the scent of the bed
“Wait a minute..
“My bed here in Korea isn’t this soft and even though it smells good not as good as this one”
“And why does my room smell of a familiar manly cologne?” She thought and snapped her eyes open
Her gace trailed the room then it dawn on her she wasn’t in her room
“Where am I? Where the hell am I” she yelled and Desmond chuckled from the kitchen
She looked down at herself and realized she wasn’t in her cloths anymore
“Why am I dressed like this?” Fear griped her at once
“Was..was I R@PED?” She thought as she stood up and checked herself.
“Luckily I’m still intact” she sigh
“But…What the hell am I doing in a man’s room dressed like this? She asked and immediately what happened to her came flashing into her memory
“Rachel and some other girls attacked me..so what happened next? And why am I in a strange room?”
“Could this be a hotel?” She wondered looking around the room..
“it’s beautiful though. who owns this room?.. nothing I can use to identify the person.. no frame, no pictures, nothing at all”
“What if I was kidnapped a second time?” She gasp
“Nah.. it can’t be possible if not I wouldn’t be looking this good and the room wouldn’t have been this big” she laughed goofily
“It’s three times bigger than my room in Las Vegas.. I need to see the owner of this palace and thank him/ her for saving me” She said following the stairs and the sweet aroma of marinated chicken stew hit her nostrils
“Wow.. I guess the person is a great cook.. she gushed happily and started following the direction of the aroma till she landed in the kitchen
“Wow!! She exclaimed and took a drumstick from a plate
“Hmmm” she Mõ@n as she Munch on it
“Where’s you manners Nirvana? You don’t even know if the chicken is poisoned”
” It’s poisoned” Desmond replied and she turned to him at once but she wasn’t seeing his face
She suddenly clutch her stomach tightly and wince
“Who are you? And why would you poison me” she groan
” You saved me and still poison me?” she asked but Desmond kept mute
” Am I going to die for real this time?” She wondered and held her stomach tightly
” Arrgh it’s hurts” She wince
“Will you just cut the crap?” Desmond scoff still backing her
” Okay sir” she replied and stood straight
“I thought I was poisoned for real… but thank you so much if truly you are the one who saved my life” she said but he kept mute
” But your voice kinda sound familiar” she said but he still didn’t reply
“Why isn’t he replying.. Is he snubbing me,,, I wish I could see his face. Looking at just his back view isn’t helping” she thought as she walked towards him
She was about to turn him around when she heard a voice behind her
“Michael? What are you doing here? Were you kidnapped too?” She asked
“Kidnap? Of course not, You are in our home” Michael replied with a smile
“Your home?” She asked and turn to Desmond then back at Michael. “So you mean the figure standing right in front of me is Desmond?” Nirvana asked in disbelief.
Wow, his back view is pretty sëxy…. she thought and Desmond chuckled lowly
“You need to eat now” Desmond turned to her with a smile and scoff loudly
“Why is he smiling at me?…should I just continue being angry? She thought
Or should I just listen to what ma’am Natasha said? She thought again
“It won’t change anything if you wanna keep acting. So you should stop it now” Desmond said and her eyes widdened
“How did you know that? Where you able to read my thoughts?”
“He doesn’t..your thoughts goes to his head” Michael replied
” Seriously? Deos that even make sense” she scoffed loudly
Is Jasmine worried about my disappearance? She thought
“She isn’t worried, infact she left for school without you” Desmond replied and she gasp
” You,,, you just read my mind?” she pointed a finger at him
” You read minds, you’ve been intruding my privacy” she glared
“Is it just me or everyone else”
“I’ll answer your question shortly” Desmond said and walk to the dining table
“Who on earth is he? He just read my freaking mind” she face Michael and he shrug
“I need to get things straight once and for all” Nirvana said and followed Desmond to the table
“Desmond” she called
“Table manners” he replied and she rolled her eyes
“Yeah, wh@tëver” she said and ate from her plate
” Wow” she exclaimed. ” I didn’t know you were this good at cooking”
“Michael can testify” Desmond replied ÇOçkily and she burst into laughter
“What’s funny?”
“Nothing… It’s just,,, I’m enjoying the food” she replied
“Alright then… Eat as much as you can okay? He said and she nodded
“I have a question Nirvana.. Michael spoke up
“Okay? What is it about?” She asked dropping her cutlery
“The day you saw me chasing Rachel,,,, how were you able to do that?” Michael asked and Desmond ate slowly while paying attention to her
“Oh right,, when you said; ‘you can see me?’, what did you mean? Where you supposed to be invisible cus I saw you” she shrug
“Did you see me touching Rachel’s cheek?” He asked further
“I didn’t, I only saw you running after her. If you two didn’t run pass me, I wouldn’t have seen you” she explained
“Wow, you’re super amazing” Michael said while Desmond and Nirvana scoff at a time
They stared at each other and burst into laughter
“What’s funny?” Desmond asked
“I should be asking you that too” she replied
She didn’t know why but she had never felt that happy before..
