The Trapped by Him

Chapter 1

Mary's POV

I've been staring at nothing for a while now.

How is it? I can't get out of here. It took a while for that skinny man to come. I still have On the Job Training at a famous Cruise Line Company here in the Philippines.

If I remember correctly, I applied to Oceanseal Cruise Line and it is one of my dream companies to work for.

When I was young, I dreamed of becoming a Seawoman and getting into big cruise ships, so I entered this job. And one more thing, I grew up in an orphanage so somehow, when I work, I want to donate money for the children.

"Hayst, I need to get out of here. If I can't get out of here, I'll waste my opportunity at Oceanseal Cruise Line" I said weakly and took a breath

I'm just a scholar so I did OJT at Oceanseal and luckily I passed that's why I won't miss this opportunity.

My breathing became stronger and at the same time a man entered the room, that's why I suddenly stood up from sitting on the floor and I was very surprised that err.. who is he again?

Dan? Den? Denver? Dw-- that's Dwayne

"Please let me out, I have OJT next week at Oceanseal Cruise Line. This is the only time this will happen to me and I'm just a Scholar. Everything is free so I can do OJT. Please let me out" I said quickly while kneeling in front of him

Even though my pride is high, I will lower it as long as my OJT continues.

"Tsk be thankful because my work next week will be in that ship, if not, I will not allow you" he said that was able to explain my face

But wait, what did he say? If my OJT is not at Oceanseal, will he not allow me? What am I? Why is he still making decisions in my life?

"Can I go out? There are two cats waiting for me in my apartment. I can't leave them alone" I promised him

Hey, why am I saying goodbye to him? It's my life, so it's my life, my decision.

"Pack your things when you go home, you will stay here in this mansion with your little pets" he said that makes my eyes wide open

"Huh? I will stay here? No need, I have my own apartment. That's enough for me. I don't need your house" I said with a sigh

"You're going to an OJT next week, what about your pets, how will you take care of them?" This question raised my eyebrows

"You don't care about that. Wait, why do you care about other people's lives?" I'm sorry to say

"Ronald give you to me, I own your life starting today and you can't escape me" he said that makes me more irritated

"Your face is so thick, I'm not something to be passed around. You can't own my life just because you want it you jerk" I said irritable

"And one more thing, I don't even know that Ronald. He has no right to give me to you. How many times have I told you that!" I shouted to him

"You will pack your things or I will burn your house with your stupid cats" he said and suddenly my speech changed as I ran towards the door

"I told you, I'm going to pack. Will someone take me to my apartment? I bet you have a cage? I'll put my two pets there" I tried to smile at him while biting my lip

He is very scary. I feel that he will do it if I don't follow him.

"I'll take you there" I heard another voice from behind me so I looked and it was the man who shot Ronald and I swallowed my own saliva

As for Dwayne, why are you letting him go with me? Maybe later he'll just point a gun at me and kill me.

No matter what I complained about, I knew there was nothing I could do so I followed that man on foot until we got to a car.

I immediately entered the backseat and sat there.

The man also got inside and he drove. I also noticed that he seems to know my address that's why I didn't bother to point it out because it looks like they have already done a background check on me because he knows my apartment.

After 30 minutes, we arrived at my apartment, so I quickly went inside and when I entered, my sweet cat greeted me.

"Meow~" my black cat purred so I immediately picked it up and hugged it

"I miss you Vivi" I said while smiling

"Wait where is Riri?" I asked my cat

"Meow~" he answered that's why I suddenly went to my room and saw a white cat named Riri lying there then staring at me as if I had done something bad

Hayst, Riri is really naughty, it's a good thing because Vivi is gentle so I can play with her if she's just as naughty I might have given her away

I immediately put Vivi down and opened my cabinet while taking out a large suitcase and put my clothes there. I also put my cats' clothes and their treats that I just bought online in a bag.

After almost an hour of packing, I stretched my body and looked at the two cats looking at me.

"Oh? Why are you staring at me?" I asked and suddenly Riri went to the bowl where they were eating cat food, so I sighed and took a scoop of cat food from the plastic that was placed in the cabinet.

By the way, I haven't fed them since this afternoon because I came from the house of one of my OJT classmates. Because we are going to Oceanseal together to start OJT but it seems that I will not be able to keep up with him because I know that demonic man will not allow me.

"Are you done?" Suddenly the man appeared from outside the door of my room and I nodded

"Here's the cage, your two cats will fit in there" he said as he handed me a big cage and my cats really fit in there

"Thank you" I simply said and lowered the cage.

He also took my two suitcases, so after my cat finished eating and drinking water, I immediately put them in the cage. Fortunately, they behaved well in the cage so I quickly got them into the car.

I was about to lock the apartment when the owner of the apartment suddenly came. It's night, miraculously, he's outside his house. His house is right next to my apartment so he was able to get here quickly

"Manang Rufina, I'm leaving the apartment. Here's my payment for this month" I said holding out P 1,500.00 pesos from the educational assistance I got from the school I study since I'm a scholar there.

"Where are you going?" He asked while accepting my payment

"Ahh, I found a new place to stay because I have OJT, I can't take care of my cats anymore so I'll have someone else take care of them first" I answered nervously

"I can take care of that," he said and I shook my head

I will never take care of my cats in the canola because his wife beat my cat because it was barking in front of their house.

"Don't worry, someone will take care of it" I replied and he nodded

"Oh okay, be careful there, Mary" he said and I smiled

"Goodbye Manang Rufina" I said as I got into the car

We immediately left there and arrived at the mansion early. When I got out of the car, someone was already carrying my things, so I took the cage and went inside.

When I entered, I found Dwayne drinking alcohol and he looked at me especially at the cage I was carrying.

"W-Where can I put them?" I will ask

"Let them roam around here" he said so I released them from the cage and suddenly they ran away from me that's why I immediately chased them because it was hard for me to chase them especially at night. They are very active at night.

I chased my cats until we got to the back of their house in the garden. I was about to go out to get them but to my surprise I saw a ti---tiger

Is that a tiger? Why is there a tiger here? Was I not allowed to take care of that?

Oh shems, my cat is getting closer and closer to the tiger that's why I quickly ran to Dwayne who was drinking alcohol

"D-Dwayne, there's a tiger behind your house. Y-My cat is there. The tiger might kill them" I told him nervously

"The----" I didn't let him finish his words because I quickly pulled him towards the garden

I was very surprised when I found the tiger and my two cats were licking each other which made me gape

Am I seriously seeing this?

"Tsk" Dwayne said and left me

Hayst take me lord, I suddenly felt ashamed because of this man

I am here today in a guest room of the mansion I live in now.

Even the guest room is very well furnished. There is a large bed, a large cabinet, a flat screen TV and a refrigerator. I also saw a bathroom and it was also fully equipped.

Hmm, can I take a half bath now?

Because I was eager to take a bath, I immediately entered the bathroom and opened the faucet in the bathtub.

I saw a liquid soap that was put in the bathtub so I immediately put it in and lather it up because it feels good to take a bath and then the soap lathers up.

I came out of the cr and prepared my sleeping clothes. It's just a pajama and an oversized t-shirt and of course a bra and panties too.

When I finished getting ready, I took a towel and entered the cr. I quickly took off my clothes and turned off the faucet in the bathtub.

I immediately paddled there and sat down and felt the cold water.

Shocks! It's my first time to take a bath in the bathtub. It's exciting to live here. The equipment is very complete and I don't understand the rent payment. I suddenly feel so special yipee.

While I was having fun soaking in the bathtub, the cr door suddenly opened.

" I shouted as I threw bubbles from my bathtub at Dwayne and covered my face

"I knocked many times but you are not responding" he said

"Nevertheless, it's respect. Get out of here, you rude, bigot!" I screamed and showered him with bubbles again

"This is my house, Mary." He simply said and looked at me that makes me feel chill.

It was as if he was insulting me in his mind that's why I took a bottle of liquid soap and threw it at him and I didn't expect that he would catch it right away which annoyed me.

"Get out of here bathroom I'm going to get dressed. Hurry up please!" When I begged and he came out of the cr, that's why I breathed a sigh of relief.

I immediately left the bathtub and wiped my body with a towel. When I was dry, I immediately wrapped the towel around my body and left the CR.

I immediately took my clothes and was about to remove my towel when I saw a shadow from the bedroom door so I immediately looked there and there he was.

"I said go out first, I'll get dressed" I said annoyed

"You can put on your clothes while I'm here" he said so I rushed into the CR again and this time, I locked it so he couldn't enter.

I got dressed quickly to get out of CR quickly. When I came out he was gone so I was relieved. Hey, it's a good thing he's gone.

I immediately locked my bedroom door and turned on the TV. Hmm, what's good to watch?

I went from channel to channel because I didn't really have anything to watch but luckily I found it right away and the show was a Romance Movie so I just watched it while holding my cellphone and chatting with my friends.

Suddenly I heard a moan from the TV so I immediately looked at it and my eyes widened because someone was kissing in the movie and their kiss was so intense that I swallowed.

I suddenly remembered what happened earlier. Argh! That Dwayne is really skinny. My brain is still sane because he came suddenly and what happened immediately.

Then I will be with him in my OJT, how can I avoid him? My training on the ship was 3 months, so that means I was with him for the entire 3 months? I hope my life will be peaceful while on the ship. I feel like it's going to be even more chaotic.

After the movie ended, I immediately turned off the TV and turned off the light in my room, but I opened the lampshade on the side of my bed and finally went to bed.

When I closed my eyes, I was immediately engulfed in sleepiness.

To Be Continued....

Chapter 2

I thought I could sleep peacefully but suddenly the door to my room opened and I suddenly felt nervous.

Oh my gosh! Who's that? I closed the door, didn't I? I didn't even lock it but why did someone still get in?

Is it a ghost? Oh my, I hope it's not a ghost, I'm weak to ghosts.

I try to calm myself as I feel my body shaking.

Suddenly, someone grabbed my leg, so I suddenly kicked whoever was disturbing my sleep, but I was surprised when it suddenly grabbed me and I felt that it was leaning on.... wait... shoulder?

I immediately opened my eyes and looked to see who the devil entered my room and I saw... Dwayne?

"What's your problem?" I asked and I used my other leg and kicked his chest very hard but it didn't seem to affect his body.

Is his body made of steel? Why isn't he hurt?

I was about to punch his face when suddenly something fell on the floor so I looked there and saw a... woman? Who's that?

"D-Dwayne?" He asked while looking at me.

Suddenly he turned on the light so I recognized his face better

"This is not true, right?" He said this and any minute I felt that he was killing me in his brain

Wait, who is this girl? Do the two of them have a relationship with this gunggong?

Wait, what if they are in a relationship? I looked like a hook in this situation and we were really caught in the act and we were still in this position so I pushed Dwayne with all my might and quickly sat on the bed.

"Its not what you think, miss. He is harassing me, good thing that you came on time, if not, maybe what else did this man do to me" I said quickly and he fumed even more with anger and suddenly he I rushed.

Just as he was about to slap me, I suddenly got away from his slap, which is why he got even more angry

"Look, miss, if you have a relationship with this man, don't be angry with me. Be angry with him because he is only molesting me. And one more thing, you have no right to slap me. The one I consider to be a mother in an orphanage, I can't be slapped, so can you" I said annoyed as we sat together and I quickly left them in the room

"Dwayne you know how much I like you but this is what you're going to give me in return?" It was a dramatic promise and from the side of the room I could hear their conversation so I stopped and waited for Dwayne's answer

"You're just my Secretary, Shane. Nothing more, nothing less" he said and I heard someone walking so I immediately ran to the garden because I wanted to play with my cat.

When I came to the garden, the tiger was still there lying down and my two cats were next to it.

Hey, it's good that my cat has found someone close to this house.

Why did I come here to the garden? I won't do anything. I just want to escape from what happened earlier.

I want to get close to my cat because they have a tiger next to them so I just watched them from a distance.

I will really miss my cats. I will be gone for another 3 months, but I think they can be taken care of here in this mansion, so I hope that when I come back, they will be even healthier.

"What are you doing here, huh? You don't want to sleep yet?" Suddenly an unfamiliar voice asked so I looked behind me and noticed that she looked like a maid in this mansion

"I'm Lita Gonzales, one of the stewards of this house" she told me and I nodded

"I'm s----"

"You're Mary, right? I know you," Manang Lita said, making me nod

"Can't you sleep?" This is a question

"Yes, I can't sleep. I just want to get some air here" when I lied to him and it didn't seem obvious that I was just lying that's why I didn't tell the truth.

"How old is the tiger here? Why are there tigers here? I thought it was forbidden to take care of them because they are very brave especially with humans" when I changed our topic

"That tiger is 5 years old and that is the guard of the mansion" he said making me gape

Guard? What is that? Dog? Of all the possible guards, it's actually a tiger

"It's funny, they're close right away" said Manang Lita which made me smile

"It's really good that they became close. At first, I thought he was going to kill my cats," I said laughing.

"Alright, go in, you might get sick" he said so I immediately followed him because I was already feeling cold.

I hope those two are gone.

Mary's POV

Ring.. Ring.. Ring..

Suddenly my cellphone rang so I woke up from lying down and quickly grabbed my cellphone.

When I saw the caller ID, I immediately answered it because for sure if I didn't answer it immediately, my job would be in jeopardy

"Good Morning Chief Bolton" I happily greeted my caller

"Mary, tonight, everyone is being summoned to O-OJT at Oceanseal. You will have a tour inside the ship so that you can become familiar with the whole ship and remember everything inside" said Chief Bolton

"Really? All right, I'll prepare myself for later" I happily told him and quickly left my bed

"Don't be late, the tour starts at 5 pm, you should be on the ship by 4 pm. I'll just send you the location of the ship and the country we're going to while you're on the ship" he said with a wider smile I

"Alright, just 3 more to be sure, I'll be there" I promised with a laugh

"Good bye, I have a lot to attend to" he said

"Thank you Chief Bolton" I said and at the same time I hung up

I immediately looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it was 11 am. Looks like I slept well. It took me a while to wake up.

I left the room and found Manang Lita sweeping near my door

"Manang Lita, where is Dwayne?" I asked and he suddenly ran towards me

"Don't call Master's name. It should be Master Dwayne because if he hears you say that, your life will be in danger" this nervous response made me raise my eyebrows

"Master? What is he? Lucky? No way, I won't call him Master. Never! Never! Never! In his fūcking dreams" I said at the same time as Manang Lita had a trace of fear on her face.

"Don't be afraid of that Dwayne. He's not a god to be afraid of. He's just a human being" I told him and he shook his head as if something bad was going to happen to me.

"Manang Lita, trust me, don't be afraid of that demonic person y-----"

"Manang leave us alone"

Someone said that makes my heartbeat skip.

Did he hear that?

"Come to my bedroom. I need to talk to you" he said and suddenly ran away from me

Tsk, order to order me, I am not his maid. Oh, if you weren't holding my life, I might have beaten you.

Oh, by the way, my taekwondo is no match for him. Hmm, can I just do karate? Maybe he will run into him

"I said come with me" he said again, so I returned to my senses and quickly followed him. Maybe he will eat me alive if I don't follow him

When we entered his room, he closed it while sitting on the sofa.

"I-I have a request for you" I started as I bit my lip

"Can you find a karate instructor?" I asked and he raised an eyebrow at me

"Just for self defense purpose. There are many bad people like you, people who have bad plans for women" I told him with a fake smile

"Why would I accept your silly request?" He said tsk, if I was really strong, I would have slapped you

"Actually, that's just a joke. I was just going to say goodbye if I could leave later. I'm just going to the cruise ship to tour the whole ship" I said while bowing

"That's the reason why I want to talk to you right now" he said

Why is it? What else does it want?

"Since you will work there for the meant time. I want you to get information from a businessman called Gabriel Villafuerte" it started making me raise an eyebrow

"What am I? Order? No way. I don't even know that Gabriel and you're going to bring me there just to get information? You're too thick to order me" I said quickly and suddenly he took out a pistol and pointed it at mine

"Even if you shoot at me, you won't scare me anymore. You did that to me last time and I won't let you go" I said and suddenly the gun went off and it hit the side of the wall where I was close so I swallowed my own saliva

"Hehe, of course I'll do that. You're not kidding. What can I do to get information from him? Even if I kill him, it'll be fine" I said smiling at him and he lowered his gun so I could rest easy

It's so bad, I thought I was going to die from fear, especially with his gun.

"While on board, you need to interact with him. Make sure that you will catch his attention so that you can talk to him at ease. Be natural while talking to him so that he will fall for it. I'll give you 5 million if you succeed" he said

Huh? How can I live with that Gabriel? I'm not comfortable talking to a stranger and then he orders me around? But 5 million is a reasonable price. My cat and I can live on that much money.

"How? How can I attract his attention?" I asked and he suddenly looked at me from head to toe so my eyes widened suddenly

"Don't tell me that I will sell my body just to get close to him? No way, over my dead body, I will never use my body to get that f*cking information" I told him

"Did I mention that I will sell your body to him?" It asked and I shook my head

Oh yes, right? Sorry I just over thought. I was still wondering what it was

"What kind of information is that? Is that important?" I will ask

"Actually I just want to know if he is part of an assassin group. If he is then you will kill him and if not then stay away from him" he said making me gape

K-Kill him? is he serious I never killed someone and then he just ordered me to do that? No way, I will not kill someone for no reason and another thing, why would I kill that person when it is not my fault.

"I can't do that Dwayne. I'm not a killer like you. I have a conscience for human life, I'm not a god who can take away a life of a person. Don't make me like you who has no heart "I promise seriously

Suddenly he took out a gun again and this time he had two in his hand and pointed them both at me which made my heart beat fast.

"You know I'm a joker, of course I'll kill him. I just said earlier that even if you order me to kill him, I'll do it as long as I lend him a gun" I promised him with a smile and a wink

"Good. You may now take your leave" he said but I didn't leave and stared at him.

"My request, you haven't agreed yet" I said

"Which one? The karate instructor or the other one" he asked

"I'm leaving tonight at 4 pm" I promised

"Go ahead" he said so my smile widened as he left his room.

When I got out, I breathed a sigh of relief.

What is this wheel I entered? How can I kill that man if he is ever part of an assassin group? It's as if there is no guard who always follows him.

I've never killed someone and then he orders me to do that? Tsk, if I can kill him there so I can be free from him. I don't even know why I'm here and I'm still following his orders.

Hey, it's up to you, as long as it's important, I can go later.

After a few hours, I took a shower and got dressed. When I looked at the clock it was almost 4pm so I went to Dwayne's room to say goodbye

When I went in there was no one. Hmm, where is that?

"Master Dwayne is not here, he left a while ago" Manang Lita suddenly said to me from behind me and I just nodded to her

Good thing he's not there, I can leave without thinking about anything else.

"Are you leaving, Mary?" Manang asked and I nodded to him

"Jacob is in the garage, he will take you to the ship" he said which startled me

"Jacob? Who is that?" I asked my brain while walking down to the outside of the mansion

When I got out, a fancy car immediately stopped in front of me and it opened automatically, which amazed me. I saw the man who killed Ronald in the driver's seat.

Oh my god, I think I will die because of him.

Chapter 3

Mary's POV

"Marry!" My loud friend shouted as soon as I got out of the car

"Lucy!!" I shouted back and hugged him

"I missed you" I said while hugging him tightly

"Hey, I went to your apartment yesterday and you weren't there, the owner of the apartment told me that you had moved. I tried to call you because I didn't have a load yet. But... the owner told me that you were with someone Goodbye driver, who is that?" He had a long line with me and I shrugged

"Jacob" I answered

"Jacob's pogi is fine, it's the same thing" he said which made me laugh

"Are you ready for that? You're going to marry a driver and then you're a seawoman?" I promised him and walked away from our place and Lucy followed me

She is Lucy Makerine Wales, my best friend since high school. She's a naughty girl but when she's in front of a man she becomes a hunter especially if she's pogi.

He used to be shy but since we went to college, he became like that after having an ex boyfriend. They only lasted a month and until now I still don't know the reason

"Bes, we have pogis with us on the ship" he excitedly said to me while pointing to the three men who had his own form of clothing.

"Are they also OJT?" I asked and he nodded while staring at the men and I wasn't surprised when they also looked in our direction

"Well, they're getting closer to us," he said excitedly, making me nervous as well.

"Hello b---" Lucy didn't finish speaking when the three men passed us and I saw them say hello to another man behind us so I laughed at Lucy's reaction

It was obvious to him that he was embarrassed because of what happened today.

"Shit! Shame on them" he said while covering his face while I laughed at him.

He looked very emotional in that situation

"I think I'm going to die of shame Mary Viatrixe Xylline Monteverde" she said which made me laugh even more

"If you're embarrassed, there's no need to mention my full name, Lucy Makerine Wales" I told him with a laugh

"Ms. Monteverde and Ms. Wales, stop talking, the tour is about to start," Chief Bolton said suddenly, making us both quiet.

It's terrible, we were the only ones that he noticed were noisy, I heard a lot of conversations on our left and right and then we were the only ones that noticed.

I looked at my watch and it was 5:02 pm. So we got ready and got serious about looking presentable while we toured

"Good evening students of CamHigh University And Xyford University, we will now start the tour in this magnificent cruise ship" said Chief Bolton into the mic he was holding

So, they are from Xyford, especially the three men that Lucy and I saw. That's why they're not familiar with me because they're from a different school.

Chief Bolton began to walk towards a very large cruise ship that amazed me.

Oh my god, dreams come true. It's my first time to board a cruise ship and it really looks like I'm going to enjoy my 3 month stay on this cruise ship.

As soon as we entered the top of the cruise ship, I immediately saw a large pool and I also saw long slides. There are beach style chairs and many decorations are hanging on each side.

Chief Bolton started talking to explain to us the facility of the entire cruise ship but I didn't pay attention to that because I was just focused on what I was seeing. As soon as I entered the cruise ship, I saw a very large hall and it was very bright. There are boutiques and restaurants around us on the left and right, so I enjoy it even more.

It's my first time to enter here, so I'm going to do my research because I'm sure when my OJT starts, I won't have time to look around at the facilities.

We also went to our dorm inside the ship and it was very crowded, I couldn't bear to stay in such a crowded place. I feel like I'm going to die here. Just kidding, four people in the same room and the room is still too crowded. There are only two double decks and the bed is still hard. I'm sure I'll have a hard time sleeping here.

We also went to the VIP rooms and it was very big there. The space inside the room is great, so I'm sure I'll be jealous of them when they come in here.

We also went to the club room which was full of liquors and then malls with different goods. Alas! If only I were rich, I'd be here all the time.

It took us 10:30 pm to go around the whole ship so I was too tired plus we hadn't eaten yet.

"Don't go home yet, we're going to eat at an Italian Restaurant here" said Chief Bolton who made my blood come alive

Yes! Free! This is exactly what I've been waiting for

We immediately went to an Italian restaurant and sat down there

"Just order, it's my treat" he said so I quickly took the menu and looked at the food

"May I take your order, madame" a waiter said

"One Capperini and one Granita and oh, I also like Marinara" I said excitedly

"Wow, you've completely taken the free one," Lucy said with a laugh

"Of course it's only once in a life time" I replied while giving him the menu

"Can we sit next to you? There are already people sitting in all the seats" Suddenly a man said so Lucy and I looked at each other

I was surprised that they were the three men who were talking earlier, so here is Lucy again, in love

"Okay sure" he said and his taunt came out again

When they sat down, we started interacting

"What's your name ladies?" The blonde haired man asked

"Mary Viatrixe Xylline Monteverde" when I introduce myself

"Lucy Makerine Wales" her smile reached heaven when she introduced herself to the boys

"Noah Mateo Williams"

"Elijah James Canaria"

"Prince Oliver Garcia"

When the three of them introduced themselves to us and I just smiled back at them

"What do you want in a woman?" When Lucy asks, I look at her because that's all there is to ask

"I like bubbly girls and hard to get" said Oliver

"I want someone who is good at cooking and has the fear of God" said Elijah and it was obvious that he was a god because of his answer

"I like my kavibes" Noah answered

Hmm, they're not my type. I hope I don't like any of them. Hayst, my art is really good when it comes to men.

When the food arrived, we immediately ate. Little by little we started talking and laughing at our random conversation.

"You know you enjoy being together" Noah said so I hit him on the shoulder

"Of course the one you're with is beautiful," I said laughing and Lucy and I joined in

It seems that I won't be bored in my 3 months on the ship because we have a close relationship with the boy

"You're so cute, especially when you're laughing," said Oliver, which made my smile widen.

Of course, you're the one who won't be thrilled to be called cute by a guy?

"Oh, Master Dwayne, you're finally here" I heard Chief Bolton say and I suddenly froze in my seat

Why is he here? Oh gosh, I hope he doesn't see me.

I slowly bowed my head and blocked my long hair from my face.

"Mary, are you all right?" Noah asked worriedly

"I-I'm fine, I'm just peeing" I promised

"You forgot where the CR is?" Lucy said laughing

I didn't really forget that, I just wanted to hide that Dwayne, maybe what he had to say to me.

"Come on, I'll come with you" Lucy said so I breathed a sigh of relief

"I'll accompany you too, you might get lost inside the ship" Elijah said

"Don't worry, we won't get lost inside" I promised and it's good that he agreed

While Lucy and I were walking to leave, I just kept my head down because I'm sure if our eyes meet, it will be difficult for me to avoid him and he might even come closer to me, I'm still assuming.

When we left, we went straight to CR. I didn't pee, I just retouched my make up.

"Are you going to pee?" Lucy asked

"I don't pee anymore" I answered while putting the lipstick back in my bag

"Just a minute Bes, someone is calling my phone" he said as he exited the CR.

I was about to go out when suddenly... Dwayne stopped me?

Shit, did I do something wrong?

Mary's POV

"Do you need something? Are you hungry? Do I need to cook for you?" I asked him with a fake smile

"Tsk, you're annoying, I just to warn you that you must not get too close to me in public. If you will report something to me then just call me" he said that makes my eyes rolled

O. He's very concerned, as if I'm going to talk to him in public, maybe what else Lucy will think of me if I have the chance

"Excuse me, you're the one talking to me in public. Just like now, you went to CR, what if someone saw? My friend was just outside and then you suddenly come in here? So if we get caught, it's not my fault "I said to him annoyed while rubbing my eyes

"Do you want to die?" he asked

"Who wants to die? Of course not, are you a fool?" I promised and just as he was about to take something from his black coat, I quickly grabbed his hand

"Of course it's just a joke, if we get caught, it's my fault not yours, because I wasn't careful so someone saw it. Don't worry if someone sees us talking, I'll kill them" I nervously told him and then he just look at me and he left me

I really regret that we met.

"Well, are you alright? You've been here in CR for a while" Lucy suddenly burst out, making me grab my chest. Jusko! I was surprised by him

"Bes, you saw a ghost here in CR, didn't you?" he said and I was about to answer when he spoke again

"Jessa's story to me earlier was correct, she said that there is a ghost here. 15 years ago, there was a holdup here on a cruise ship, then many people died, so there are many dead people who are making her feel here in CR then in the rooms too" he said and I quickly agreed

"You're right Lucy, I saw a ghost with a gun earlier. It looks like he's one of the holdovers in your story. I was about to die, it's good you came" I told him and he suddenly hugged me making me jump

What did he think?

"Don't worry, Mary, I'm just here, a ghost can't take you from me and your name is Mary, God will protect you from scary ghosts" he said to me while patting my back

What does it think? I'm crying? it's up to me as long as the important thing is that I can get through here

FAST FORWARD

I got back to Dwayne's house and I quickly went to my room to pack because my On Job Training starts tomorrow night and the ship leaves from the Philippines to Saudi Arabia so there are many countries we are going to. I don't know if three months will be enough, but they said that if we can't handle three months, we may take six months or more.

It seems that I will experience living at sea if we travel for almost six months but I am sure that I will enjoy it because it has been my dream for a long time but.... will I really enjoy it? heyst, because that was the order of Dwayne, he still wants me to kill someone if Gabriel is ever part of an assassination group. Tsk, it's up to him, I'm not going to kill anyone, I'm just going to force that Gabriel close to him so he can do it, he wants something, not me

The question is.... how can I admit that? I don't know how to do it. It would be nice if that man had a plan, but it doesn't seem like there is any and I'll really have to rely on him to do it.

What went into that brain to make me sympathize with his trouble?

After I finished packing, I immediately went to the garden because my two cats, Riri and Vivi, hadn't left there yet. I don't know about them, that tiger is immediately close to me, and I'm already jealous. I also want to touch the tiger in case it bites me and I will die because it's a waste of my beauty

"Vivi, Riri come here, you're going to eat" when I called my two cats and they both came to me that's why I picked them up as well

They are really cute, it's nice to squeeze their heads!! I love them.

Suddenly, the tiger roared, which is why I backed away while holding my two cats. Little by little, the tiger was getting closer to me, which is why I was able to swallow my own saliva

"Little tiger, I'm not good to eat. Don't try to eat me, I have a lot of pain in my body" I said nervously as I backed away and the tiger was getting closer and closer to me.
