As I reached the dining area. Some are still preparing the food on the table. Mom and Dad are sitting together. They are smiling and talking to the guy who is in front of them. I paused when I saw who it was. He is wearing a polo darker than my dad's polo. He is answering politely my parent's questions and giving them a serious look. I can't imagine before, him sitting inside our house. His aura is so good to look at in my entire life. Is this called destiny or a chance for me to have a moment with him? I want to come close and sit with them. But my mind is about to expose the words, I am thinking right now. I was about to walk towards my room when I bumped, one of the maids who is holding a soup. Her voice echoed in the dining. All I can do is cover my mouth. I was aback, but I decided to immediately help her. I am going to pick the broken bowl when someone's hand stopped me. My world just like get slow and I want to cover my face right now. Reigan is holding my arms. Our eyes met and I feel electric travel from his eyes to mine. I stood up, move close to my mom. "What happened?" She asked and turned her gaze to me. I'm stuttering but I'm still able to answer. "I just accidentally bumped our maid. I am planning to go back to my room and sadly we met in the same direction." I explained facing them. Dad agree and approved what I said. So Mom let the maid fix anything. I took a deep sighed and after that dad spoke. "Okay, everything is alright. Let's go and have dinner." He make way for us and smiled. I'm the last one who takes a seat. I'm nervous and still embarrassed. I just focus on the food and pretend there is nothing happened. "Uhm.." Dad breaks the silence. "Uh, I'm so sorry for what happened Reigan." Dad seems serious and sincere after he said that. Reigan is in front of us. Give a tiny smile, as if his big smile is too expensive to show with everyone. "It's okay." He simply replied. It's my first time hearing his voice in person. It's so smooth and clear. I can imagine him, doing a meeting and all of the members are into him because of his voice. I think my ears are reddish right now. Mom releases a small chuckle and taps my shoulder. "Uh, by the way. She is our daughter." "Moriya, greet him." Dad's command. I instantly open my mouth to greet him. "Good evening, I'm Moriya. You can call me Mori if you want to." He just nods at me. "Okay, let's eat. It's getting late." Dad announced and let us eat. While we are eating, Mom is so interested in Reigan's background. "So, your dad got sick right? Is he just staying in your house?" Mom questioned. Reigan didn't hesitate to reply directly. "Yes, Ma'am. He needs medication right now. And if he recovers, I want him to rest. He is getting older," Dad and Mom agreed and ask a question again. "Do you have a little brother, is he the one who will accompany you to run your business?" "No, he's not into business. He is graduating, he currently studying political science." After I heard, the political science. I remember the guy in the library who's studying the said course. "Oh, he is graduating too? Moriya is in their fourth year of college. She studying fine arts." I just nod and smile, that's all I can do. I can not utter any word. Reigan seems so intimidating. "Moriya, you must know Reigan Villavincencio sooner you will work with him. When you get in our company." "Yes, Dad," I answered and continue eating. After we ate, I decided to go back to my room and fix myself. Mom stays in the kitchen to help our maids. I'm still curious and confused about Reigan. Why is he here? I saw him with dad, walking to the garden. They sat there, and they started to talk. I went to my bathroom to take a bath. I want to call Charrie. To tell, that Reigan is here. But my mind says, I should keep it with myself. I went to my bookshelf and get a book, I want to relax and stop thinking about why Reigan is here. Though, I should not care about him, because he doesn't care about me too. And I guess he, can't remember me. I am the girl who stares at him at the bar on my eighteenth birthday. "Hmm, I should not think about him. He is not interested in me. I guess he likes, girls with a profession. Not me, a college girl. Who is clumsy earlier and makes a scene?" I murmured. After that, I just decided to start reading the book. I'm into, love stories that are related to soulmates. I'm am reading now chapter forty, which is giving me hard time absorbing what's happening because of romantic scenes. I just close the book and went out of my room. I need to drink water, I look at the hall and trying to see if there are people in the kitchen. Gladly, there's no one. I went there, and get a drink. I just open the small light, because I guess Mom and Dad are already resting. But, I heard footsteps walking towards me. K froze and I hold my bottle tightly. I also decided to close my eyes and figure out using my mind who is that. I want to scream and call my parents or even our guards. But there is a possibility that maybe is that a ghost? I am afraid of a ghost but I need to relax my self. Whoever it that, please don't end my life here.
