A Nightmare

"We meet again," Alan said with a surprised smile.

"Hahaha..." The hazel-eyed woman smiled wearily and stuttered "... I don't... Kn-know what... You are talking about..."

The woman stroked away her falling side braid.

All the woman's features were now revealed during this awkward confrontation.

She had a perfectly sculpted body, her D-cup boobs stuck to the thin white shirt she wore. Her French braided brown hair, with her hazel green eyes, absorbed and reflected the light which entered the room. It was very beautiful, it could be ranked second if Alan were to rate them.

Which pair of eyes stole the first place in Alan's heart was none other than Hannah's and Juna's golden eyes.

Her glistening pale skin complimented her ripe cherry lips. She was neither too tall nor short just an average height.

The woman noticed Hannah staring at the woman's badge on her chest.

Cough

"I am Angela, the manager of the restaurant, " the woman said with a warming smile on her face.

"..." The twins kept staring at Angela with straight faces. They had already figured out she was the same woman they met in the mercenary guild with her scent.

Their glares were piercing Angela's soul.

'Shiver... Why are they glaring at me? Did I do something wrong?' Angela questioned herself inwardly as she saw the two women.

These two women were just observing her.

Nod nod

Yes, they are observing her. . . No no why did she come in front of him again?

'This woman, does she want to die?' Juna screamed jealousy.

'Why does she have to meet him again today?' Hannah thought to herself.

The twins had accepted Alan, they accepted him having a Harem. Since it was something inevitable.

They don't care about Angela but they are irritated by her stealing Alan's attention for the second time during their precious date.

Well,

Angela didn't want to either, but who could change the fate if they are meant to meet again.

"Oh, what would you like to have?" Angela asked with a pleasant smile, but it was just a broken mask. She wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.

"I would like to have....." The girls began ordering their food.

Alan kept starting at Anglea which creeped her out. But she maintained her composure and took in the orders.

She didn't even shift her vision towards Alan. Her head and vision were towards the twins at 90°.

She never budged, not even an angle.

Alan doesn't know why Angela was trying so hard to get away from him, which made him judge his actions.

All he did was help the women. But, she has been trying her best to stay away from Alan. Even now, she was wary of Alan and kept her distance.

'Does she think I am a molester?' That's the vibe Alan got from her.

Alan just drop all the thoughts on his mind.

And "Hannah, Juna order for me as well." As soon as he said that.

The girls nodded and continued with their orders.

Angela spoke with a pleasant smile after taking down the orders before leaving the room in a hurry "your orders will be here soon ."

"Alan there is something wrong with that woman" Hannah commented.

"Yes, she acts weird" Juna supported her sister.

"..." Alan remained silent, he didn't know what Angela was thinking behind her pretty face.

They were having a normal conversation. But Hannah became silent immediately as she kept looking at something outside the window.

It was a mother and daughter, the mother was buying some candy for her daughter and kissed her on her cheek.

Hannah got up from her chair and sat on Alan's lap, she hugged him tightly as she placed her head on Alan's chest.

She was sniffing as some drops of restrained tears broke free.

Alan stroked Hannahs's hair as she kept her head buried in his chest.

She calmed down after a couple of minutes and looked at Alan.

Alan knew Hannah missed her mother, but he couldn't do anything to help her. It has only been a couple of weeks but still...

Hannah wasn't like Juna who would hide her feelings, she would feel pathetic for crying about such a trivial matter. Yes, Juna felt these as trivial matters.

That's what Alan loved about them the most, the sweet, kind and innocent Hannah.

The cold and bold Juna. Their characters, decisions and actions differed so much. But Alan loved all of that...

Alan asked after a couple of minutes "Are you fine now?" Alan caressed Hannah's cheeks.

"Yes I am fine." Hannah stared at Alan's eyes as she caressed Alan's chin and continued "your heartbeat is so pleasant, It sounds like a lullaby to me."

Hannah moved closer and kissed Alan passionately.

After a couple of minutes...

The couple stopped kissing.

"You have some guts sis..." Hannah heard her sister's cold voice.

"...heh heh" Hannah smiled wearily.

Sigh

"I will let to go, but" a weird smile appeared on Juna's face "I will be sure to enjoy my time with Alan tonight."

"Alan have you told Victoria and Ashley about our relationship," Juna asked with a seriously concerned face.

"Yes, I have. We will be meeting them soon." Alan informed them through letters. He wanted to inform them in person but he wanted to surprise them with the guns he had asked Gagola to make for them.

Although the guns may be weapons of mass destruction, they would not be very powerful for long ranges and without using an aura on the bullets they can't be used to kill or cause a fatal injury. The people in this world were not that weak to die from a bullet. Their bodies were very strong.

Alan can't wait to try them out.

But now Alan was feeling troubled inside, he was worried if facing victoria after what had happened at the sparing ground.

Even though they exchanged letters often, victoria never asked Alan about that problem.

But Alan didn't know what victoria was feeling either...

"I can't wait to meet them" Hannah's comments woke Alan from his thoughts.

Alan flashed a smile and smooched Hannah's excited cute face which surprised her.

Anna kept staring at the whole incident with an emotionless face.

Even though she never showed it Anna was hurting herself every time she saw Alan with other women. Just when she thought she could hold Alan's hand he moves further away.

It was because of that man... That man I will kill him one day... But there is still a slight hesitation when that idea bloomed in her mind. It was as if something was stopping her.

It is very difficult to understand, it was as if there were two Annas inside her mind fighting for dominance.

"Sir, Mam your orders are here" A maid entered the room as she spoke. Followed by a couple of maids who brought the food and placed it on the table.

They opened the lid on sinc, revealing all the delicious foods they have ordered.

Every edible animal and bird was made into delicious-looking food.

What do we do when you go to take new place and they ask you to order the food.

We read out all the foods on the menu and choose the names which sound rhyming or fancy.

[Comment on how you order food if you don't know the language]

Hannah and Juna fed Alan, they forced Anna to have some which she couldn't refuse.

"Alan it is delicious" Hannah rated the food after having a bite of the chicken breasts.

"...hmm, yes it is but they can't come anywhere near my darlings delicacies," Juna said in a confident tone.

After having some beverages and pastries. They have finally finished all the food they ordered.

They paid the bill and as they were about to leave.

Alan inquired about Angela to the receptionist.

Since Angela never returned after taking the order.

She had escaped from Alan's clutches again, but it won't be for long cause now he knows where she is.

The girls were not in the mood to talk about anything else.

"Alan, will you still love me if I become fat?" Hannah asked a strange question as they were travelling back to the villa in a golden black-toned carriage.

"Why would you ask such a question?" Alan was really surprised at the question as it came out of know where.

"Answer me," Hannah said as she leaned on Alan's left shoulder.

"I will love you no matter how you look," Alan said with a smile.

He pulled Juna by her waist closer to him than she already was "I love you both unconditionally, and my love for you will only keep increasing."

"I know Alan" This time it was Juna who replied. They rested their heads on Alan's shoulders and fell asleep as if started to darken outside.

Anna was... Staring at the couples as usual, what else could she do.

The girls woke up as they returned to the villa.

They showed Catherine and Mia their presents.

"Wow, sister I love this dress. Ah, this too..." Mia was very excited as she got her gifts.

"Come on girls, you didn't have to get for me too..." Catherine said as she head the twin's hands "... your presence here is enough for me."

"No, M-mother. I wanted to give you something" Juna said as her face turned red. She has finally gathered up enough courage to call Catherine...MOTHER.

"Alan see how much you have changed my sister" Hannah commented with a smile on her face.

"She has been acting more girly lately." Juna wasn't the type to act sweet and kind to someone. But she didn't only for Alan, it came naturally whenever she was with Alan.

It was as if she had a girl switch. Which is turned on only when she is around Alan.

"Mother, we bought souveneirs for uncle William too. Where is he?." Hannah asked as she looked around for his traces.

"Oh, he is on a business trip. He will be back soon" Catherine replied.

Here business doesn't mean the real business it is the other business.

Try to decode this phrase yourself. Hehe

"Anna, this is for you" Hannah handed over a box which had a dress and female accessories.

Anna was taken back.

"..no no I can't accept this" Anna rejected the present.

"...Even if it was Alan who picked them," Juna asked with a sly smirk on her face. She knew Anna's true feelings.

"..." Anna pondered for a bit "... I will accept them." She said as her face turned bright red.

'He still thinks about me' Anna was in her own world.

In Alan's room.

The three were sleeping soundly, Juna who planned to spend some lewd time with Alan was the first to sleep followed by Hannah who slept hugging Alan.

"Mother, father why did you leave me alone?..."

"What am I supposed to do without you"

"Please please come back"

Alan was crying in front of two coffins.

"So sad, not even their bodies were intact" a person from the crowd whispered.

"Yes, they were dead on spot. There was no way to save them"

The scene changed. . .

"Hahaha, you will die by my hands today and no one will be there to save you"

"Your son will be seeing your corpse"

A blurry image of a person holding a sword to Catherine's neck.

"We will destroy every race" With a visible smirk "don't make that face, I will send your son to you soon"

"Don't... Touch my son"

"Hahaha"

Slash

Alan woke up from his sleep.

Huff huff

"Mother mother" Alan got out of bed and ran towards his parent's bedroom where

Catherine and mia were sleeping together.

Knock knock

'Who is it at this hour'

Knock knock

"Sheesh"

Catherine got up and opened the door.

"Mother mother" Alan hugged Catherine tightly.

"...Alan"

"Mother are you... Pant... Ok. Are you hurt anywhere" Alan asked with unsteady breathing.

"Calm down... I am fine see " Catherine tried to calm Alan down.

"No mother you... you were..." Before Alan could finish his words, Catherine embraced him tightly.

After a minute.

Catherine lay on the bed next to Alan stroking his hair as his head was buried in her chest.

Mia slept soundly in between all this commotion.

Alan didn't say a word and kept hugging his mother.

"It was just a nightmare, mommy is here with you" Catherine tried to comfort Alan "I will never leave you, my son."

After crying for a couple of minutes Alan slept under his mother's warmth.

Kiss

"Yes, how could I leave my baby boy," Catherine said as she saw Alan's cute face.

Although he has already become a man, he is still a child to his parents.

Isn't that the case for everyone?

"You never know the value of a diamond until you lose it. So cherish your parents when you have them with you"
