Book of Fate

The next day, Alexa woke up with no Lexie inside the house. She was looking for it inside, even in the kitchen, but there was no sign that Lexie was there. She sat down on the kitchen chair and was obviously just awake because her eyes were still swollen and her hair was disheveled.

While she was in that state, someone suddenly called her phone. “Hello, who’s this?” she said softly as she rolled her eyes.

Lexie is on the other line. “Hello! Alexa, it’s good you’re awake. I’m sorry I didn’t say goodbye before I left, because you’re still asleep, so I won’t bother you at that moment. ”

“You just went to work; why do you need to let me know?” she asked, confused. After all, Lexie never let anyone know or called that she had left the house to go to work. This was the first time.

“I’m on work leave. I’m in the province. I’m here temporarily, so you’ll be the only one at the house until I get back. ”

She frowned. “Are you on vacation?”

“It seems like that, because grandma asked me to take a vacation here first. I also bought your stock of food before I went here, and you can see it in the food storage cabinet, so you don’t have to go out. I know you’re writing, so I bought it. Be careful, okay, bye! ” Lexie dropped the call, so she put her phone on the table.

She stood up and looked at the cabinet where she and Lexie always kept and put the groceries. “How long will she be in their province? This grocery is good for one month?” She got one food item and quickly cooked breakfast.

While Alexa was in the kitchen, a creature appeared in her room that was very bright. This is the creature that also appeared to Victor then. He is the one who gives the message about who will be the next to write destiny in the magical book that Alexa now holds.

He approached the table where the book was and turned the pages. “The story of the people in the book is just beginning, and it looks like the book will still be in her hand for a little more time. But her character in the book can’t be finished for what she wants at the end. Her destiny will have trouble too because of this situation. ” The mysterious creature suddenly looked at the door because it appeared that Alexa was about to enter, so it disappeared and the book was left open.

When Alexa entered, she looked at the book first. She was perplexed because she had closed the book the night before, so why was it now open? She just ignored it and sat down in front of the table again.

Saturday came and Daniella was ready to go to the plaza for another long lesson from William.” I’m leaving! Don’t worry too much about me because I’ll be back. ” She was still joking. Her mother came out of the house with some food in a small tupperware.

She hugged her mother so sweetly. “Thank you, Mom. But what are the things in here?” She pointed at the same time, using her snout.

Maria raised the tupperware. “Lots of cooked rice.”

She frowned. “That’s all?” She was still making sure.

“Yeah, why is there more to put in here?”

“Mom, why is there no dish? “Why is it just rice?” she complained, stomping her feet on the ground.

Her mother took her hand and moved the tupperware to her hand. “You may go and maybe William is already at the plaza. We are starting to save money, so just eat some rice first. Give William too. ”

Her eyes widened. “Why do I give William this? It’s embarrassing to have only rice without a dish. Mommy!”

“Rice is more important than the dish, so go ahead and go. Be careful.” Remind her  before entering the house.

While she didn’t seem to want to go to the plaza and she didn’t want to make William angry, she was even more afraid of William than of her mother. She had already walked while it was still early. As soon as she entered the gate of the plaza, she saw William sitting, so she walked quickly and just sat down without saying anything. William just looked at her and closed the book he was holding.

In Daniella’s mind, “Why does he always have a book with him and his diligence to read every time we come here?”

“Okay, let’s start,” William said. “The result of Mr. Salvador’s quiz was okay with your answers last week, but it’s still too low, so I’ll teach you math again.”

She just frowned because she would do math again and would do endless problem solving. “Maybe until we finish fourth year high school. You are still teaching me the math subject,” she complained. William looked at Daniella seriously, so she just avoided his gaze because it looked like the fire was going to blow again in his mouth because she complained again.” Give me a perfect score on Mr. Salvador’s short tests and at that time it might not be the math subject for what I am teaching you.” And look again at the paper he was holding.

“Sometimes, Daniella, you have to just talk to yourself so you don’t get scolded,” she said to herself with a shake of her head.

The two of them were busy, William holding his book again and Daniella solving math questions, and they didn’t realize that it was noon and it was time to eat. “You can stop first and eat lunch,” William said.

She stopped and saw that William had brought out a packed lunch placed in an inside lunch box, and the dish looked delicious, so she took her bag, but when she was about to open the food, she stopped. “This tupperware is just rice and no dish inside. It would be embarrassing for William if I offered it to him.”

William noticed that Daniella was still not eating and was just holding onto the lid of the tupperware and seemed to have the depth of thought. “Why haven’t you eaten your lunch yet?” William asked.

She smiled.” I’m okay, just eat there first. I’m still full. I’ll just eat it later.” She was about to hide her lunch box again when William suddenly touched the lunch box.

“You just eat now. Nothing will enter your brain if you are hungry.”

She tried to pull the lunch box from William’s hand. “I’ll eat it later, so go ahead and let go of this lunch box.”

William’s eyes narrowed at her, and he suddenly forced her to remove her hand, so she released the grip on her lunch box. William took it, and it was he who opened it. William was stunned by what he saw,  but Daniella had closed her eyes because of its reaction.

It was a long time before William spoke. “Why don’t you want to eat this food of yours? The design is still nice. Your mother did it? ”

She was surprised by what William said. Her mother still has time to make the rice beautiful in her eyes. William lowered the lunch box and pushed towards her. “Eat up.”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
