The dead end in her maze

The silk robe fell swiftly on the floor, exposing Ashley's black lingerie, the clothing is too thin that it almost covered nothing. Her black hair unruffled and her face already clean from make-up, the only thing that she reapplied is her favorite red lipstick.

So that's why those clothes were all scattered in Ted's living room!

She trusts Adam, but right now, being drugged, she really doesn't know what to do but watch the two lifelessly as her eyes betrayed her.

'Don't look, don't look' she chanted yet still her eyes are wide open to the truth that if she doesn't take any action soon, everything will be over.

Her whole world is crumbling right before her eyes while Ashley has the guts to even prepare music to make the night more 'magical' for her. The spiteful woman succumbs in her own world with Adam, not even glancing up to see Celestia much less, help her get up.

She's just lying there, her long hair disheveled on the cold floor.

'Damn, I shouldn't have trusted her," she thought with her eyes and heart continually weeps in despair. She learned not to trust people easily the hard way, the worst way in fact.

Celestia remembers everything that happened between her and Adam, they've come a long way...

Her mind repeating on the same words Adam said before leaving to carry Ashley, "I am doing this because I love you."

Because he loves her...that's why he's in danger now!

How naive of her! If only she did not plead him, if only she went upstairs with them...if only she was stronger.

There's still hope, Ted! But the thing is, that man will not wake up even if there is an earthquake, especially if he is very tired, her heart sank, there's no one to help.

Celestia's mind in chaos as she thinks of possible ways to get free. Her time is running out! Ashley started unbuttoning Adam's t-shirt while kissing the man on the neck!

She's beyond disgusted, she needs to save him!

The shard is close to her, just moving a few inches and she can reach it.

She can do it! She will reach it!

She slowly moves the chair upward, careful to make any noise, her eyes still fixed on the two, but only traces of tears can be seen on her face, she's desperate!

Celestia ignores the writhing pain from her hands, she needs to reach that damn shard!

Adam groaned, his eyes are now closed but his lips moved as Ashley's hands wander on his body.

"C-Celestia" he murmured, exasperated because he can't control his own body.

Ashley stopped momentarily, her hands on his hard chest, 'who is Celestia?' she wondered, 'Is there a possibility that Adam is cheating on Eve?' she smiles at the thought...if he can have two girls at the same time then he can have Ashley as one of them too!

Learning this, Ashley gained confidence that Adam will not resist his urges anymore, she unties the rope on his hands and body, after all, she wants him to move too.

"You are mine"

Adam's hand started to roam on her face but what Ashley thought will happen once again, did not.

What greeted her is a smack although it has not that much force, the weight of his hands still hurt Ashley damn hard.

Her face almost become distorted, the man has still strength although in that state! What a monster he is, that's one of the best aphrodisiacs in the world! She stands up from the floor, this time she will no show mercy not even to Adam!

She spits some blood and instead of thinking about losing her job due to her face, she thought about hiding Adam in just a room, locking him up.

She grabs his arms tightly as her jaw clenched, the man struggled but with no avail, has been beaten up by Ashley.

Everything happened in a blink of an eye, she, Ashley, tying Adam in a rope, and Celestia, finally breaking free, Adam brought her the time to do so. Even though her hands are now in a more serious state, she could care less.

Grabbing the vase beside her. she's ready to aim at Ashley, 'Please Ted forgive me' she begs in her mind, she's got no other choice, the girl is crazy!

She's about to throw it when the doorknob suddenly moved. and the man in the early 30s suddenly came out.

The time seems to stop as Ashley's eyes went wide and Celestia halted mid-air.

"B-brother" Ashley choked on her own words.

What will she do now?

Sensing another person behind her, she immediately thought of something. Her eyes began to water, taking acting skills, after all, is not a waste of time.

"E-E-Eve's a dang--"

*SLAP*

Ashley's hand on her left cheek, her face is now completely destroyed.

The once kind eyes of her brother were now cold and full of disgust.

"I can't believe you're my sister" he spat in anger.

Like a splash of cold water, Ted's words woke Ashley, out of all her relatives, Ted is the only kind enough to accept her, he's the only one who cared for her, and he is the only one who loved her...

Her brother let her stay in his house yet this is how she returned that kindness.

'When can I do anything right?' she smiles, sadly.

This is game over for her. A dead-end in her maze.

A tear fell on her cheeks as she fell on her knees, what she did flashbacks again and again, when did she become like this?

Ah, right, when she was sexually assaulted at the age of 15 but her father and mother did not believe her, instead they accused her of just lying to get through...their exact words, "You only causes us trouble, if you're going to spend your night with your friends, just say so! Stop making excuses"

That night, not only did she lost her virginity to a stranger but also her trust to the people she thought will be there for her.

Whether she drinks, used drugs, the Perez family could care less, after all, she is the black sheep in their prosperous clan. The dirt in a perfectly white shirt...

Ted contacted Zhang Yong by chatting him online, his little sister needs to go to rehabilitation and it may take years before she will become fully recovered.

He cannot believe that his sister can do that, but time really changes a person.

His little sister who used to follow him around when they were still toddlers, the same sister who made him a hand-made handkerchief with his name on at the age of 7, his sister who has so much potential yet ended up broken.

She's talented not only in the way his family wants her to be.
