Sincerely yours, Madame Shanice.

[ Dear Matilda:

How the tables have turned!

You used to write letters, now you have one written just for you! Oh dearie...you have a lot kept within your heart!

I Wonder, Does Matilda Jeannette remembers how life was within the walls of Derora's castle? does she remembers when she first saw her mate?

A girl with long reddish-brown hair and eyes, with an Ivory complexion and gloves covering her hands all the time.

Does Matilda remembers how Socorro hid away in her new office without a proper hello, avoiding to socialize with anyone coming her way, even though Socorro was the new recruit!

She was also a new beauty to Matilda's eyes, "The new assistant, what a beauty she is!" a servant whispered in The Royal messenger's ears, "They say she is very shy, and never been somewhere this fancy before in her life." The servant whispered again.

Desperate to get a look at her, Matilda walked outside, searching until she located where the window of the assistant's office was.

Matilda saw the beautiful woman standing by the window, it seemed as if the new assistant was lost in her thoughts.

Feeling the corner of her mouth turn-up, Matilda found herself smiling, but why was she?

This wasn't the first time she saw a beautiful woman like that, but it was one of the few times, her heart fluttered at the sight of someone else.

As time passes by, the feeling of butterflies in her stomach faded away and instead, Matilda was feeling warm and comfortable around this woman.

And with time, Socorro started to talk to a delighted Matilda.

But neither of them made any real effort in deep communication, Their talks were surface level.

It could be because Socorro was often mean, she refused every attempt from Matilda's side to ask her out, though Matilda remained by her side smiling, laughing and joking even when her heart was in pain.

And soon, Matilda knew the assistant's schedule by heart.

She would wake-up early in the morning to walk past Socorro's office, so she could hear her listening to classical music everyday.

Sometimes she would peak through the door, and see Socorro dancing to the music.

Around the day, Matilda noticed how focused Socorro is on her job, the sound of her footsteps can be heard moving from a spot to another, there's so much work to do after all!

And with work to do, the assistant wears a serious expression on her face, and Matilda would follow her around watching as Socorro visits all around the palace to make sure everything is going smoothly.

Sometimes, Matilda stops by the Bird's fountain, but she would hide immediately if she saw Socorro coming to comb her hair.

Sometimes, the young princes would come and greet the assistant in her office, or she would go and check on them in the playroom, and while passing by, Matilda can hear them laugh loudly.

When the king is around, Socorro's eyes sparkle with passion and respect, always smiling fondly around his majesty, making Matilda feel jealous.

Even after a long day of work, Socorro wouldn't mind the king asking for more work to be done, so Matilda finds herself often offering to help her carry out the extra tasks.

And when darkness takes over the sky, Matilda would go for a walk around the castle to clear her head.

She would pass by a big glass window, where a little lamp is the only source of light next to where Socorro sits, reading books until she feels sleepy and goes to bed.

But sometimes Matilda would catch her sleeping there by the window, curled-up like a cat.

Day by Day, Matilda felt like she knew everything there is to Know about Socorro.

Falling in love on the job, was not forbidden by the rules, But Socorro made it seem so, and it didn't help that Matilda was too naive to understand that the issue wasn't just in one person.

Matilda would only realize how much time she wasted on just watching Socorro from the outside, instead of trying to know her from the inside, when in the midst of the smoke...Their eyes shared a final look at each other with heavy feelings, like two tired broken souls would do.

But now...Matilda was given another chance!

Although, why does it sound like things only got worse? what went wrong this time?

Matilda, riddle me this...Have you ever tried to know who Socorro really is? why do you think she pushed you away?

Sincerely yours, madame Shanice.]

"I... remember everything now!...we came back from that pizza night, I tried to hold her back so you guys won't get punished...I confronted her about her mark..." Matilda's tears started flowing again, She immediately rushed back to the front door, banging on it, desperate for it to open.

Ned watched from a distance as the door flung open and Socorro jumped into Matilda's arms, both woman hugging each other and crying as if they didn't fight like hell a minute ago.

"What just happened?!" Jade asked, "I have no fucking idea." Garrick replied amused, "Could it be...that they actually...restored...their lost memories?" Tacito asked.

"Yeah." Ned replied simply, "But How?" Yurei said curiously, "WOW!...Madame Shan-Shan did it again!" Jade said with a smile, "It's madame Shanice, don't disrespect the dead." Jasper said, "It seems like her letters awoke their memories." he added.

Meanwhile, "I'm sorry I'm really sorry! I can't believe I let that snake get to me!" Socorro said apologizing, "I'm sorry too! I was being creepy and I should've just treated you properly!" Matilda replied hugging her tightly.

"I can't believe it, first Aroon and now Fernando...why is every Male Omega who likes Garrick has it against me!" Socorro said, "But Aroon is innocent!" Matilda quickly replied, breaking the hug in confusion, "What do you mean innocent?" Socorro asked.

"Fernando stole Aroon's body after he killed him! he was the one who killed us!" Matilda said, gasping "REALLY?!" Socorro said.

"Listen, we'll explain everything you're missing later, but please trust me when I tell you that Aroon is a nice person."

"Oh my goodness! all the horrible things I said back then in Derora thinking he was Aroon!...ugh! I can't believe he got me twice!" Socorro said throwing fists in the air.

"Horrible things?"

"Yes, I said stuff like pink Fuck and snake, insults based on his...appearance...I feel ashamed of myself." Socorro spoke embarrassed, "You're really mean coconut! but you couldn't have known." Matilda replied snickering.

"And why do you always forgive me! are you trying to be a Saint?! I keep insulting you all the time! you should've yelled at me, or insulted me back!" Socorro said folding her arms, "I'd like to be the better person, I can't insult you." Matilda said chuckling.

"Ah, you big dorky pumpkin."

"I can't believe you hugged me...I'm not going to get hurt by you anymore, I know you don't mean anything with those empty insults coconut."

"It takes just a hug to wipe everything off? are you going to ask me to marry you if I kissed you!" Socorro Said before giving her a quick peck on the lips.

Matilda was so taken back, "Oh! that was our first kiss together!" she said with wide eyes, "You call that a kiss?" Socorro said faking her annoyance.

"Coconut!"

"Yeah?"

"Let's get married! I'm thinking about a countryside wedding! I'll pay for any dress you pick!" Matilda said enthusiastically.

Horrified, Socorro ran away from her screaming, she tried to hide behind Ned as Matilda chased her around, "WHY ARE YOU RUNNING!" Matilda shouted happily.

"I SHOULD HAVE NEVER KISSED YOU! YOU'RE HAVING WEIRD IDEAS AGAIN!" Socorro screamed running away, she hid again but this time she went inside Matilda's car, locking herself in it.

"Socorro! I left the keys inside! open the door!" Matilda said tapping on the window.

"Tch, look at these two!...HEY! I told you to be patient with her Matilda?! how can you propose to her when you guys barely kissed." Ned said trying his best to sound serious while he was actually beaming with happiness inside.

Feeling Ned's happiness, Garrick smirked as he watched Ned helplessly try fighting his smile.

"I feel like I'm stuck in a comedy-romance kdrama...Am I the second lead? why am I the one who's miserable, while everyone is falling in love?" Jasper said sighing.

"Ne jalmos-iya.(it's your fault)" Faunus replied taking them by surprise.

Turning his attention back to them, Ned gave an angry glance at Jasper who looked away, then asked, "Faunus, hangug-eoleul hal su issseubnikka? (can you speak Korean?)"

"Ne eomeoni! ( yes mother)" Faunus replied smiling.

"Aha! that's great!" Ned said smiling back before he turned to Jasper snarling at him "Jaeseupeo, i saekki! ( Jasper, you asshole)" Ned whispered, "I'll apologize later, leave me alone!" Jasper whispered back.

"I still can't believe this boyfriend story...why is my brother dating Fernando's twin?" Jade Asked, "And how come he's well mannered and actually sweet?! he doesn't seem like Fernando's twin at all!" she added, "As if you and Jasper are alike!" Yurei commented.

"Shut-up, Sweet home Alabama!" Jade said smirking, "TACI IS FUCKING ADOPTED! IN FACT WE BOTH ARE ADOPTED! STOP SAYING THAT!" Yurei shouted, "Btw how's it like dating someone who's taller than you Yurei?" Jade asked, "How's it like being single? even your mom got somebody!" Yurei replied.

"I like being single! on the other hand, dating you sounds like hell Yurrrr!" Jade said giggling, "Not really...I mean Yurei...is sometimes annoying...he's mean to... others...he snores loudly...has a fashion...addiction...and he's an... extreme masochist too." Tacito spoke-up, "Babe! stop telling her bad stuff about me!" Yurei said horrified.

"Don't worry Yurei, we don't kink shame in this house." Jade said giggling.

"But Yurei is...good to me...he cried so...much one time...when he accidentally...made me hurt...my foot while...we played football.

Also he used...to feel too...ashamed that i...was the breadwinner...in our house...he felt too...shy to ask...for anything for... himself.

I'd ask him...if he wants...to get anything... and he's say...he's okay and... doesn't need anything...even when he... really needs something...like desperately needs...he doesn't say...because he wants...to buy me...stuff.

Yurei couldn't hold...a job for...long because of...his attitude towards... people and because...we kept traveling...too.

Then when we...came here he...started working for...Faunus... just so he...can spoil me." Tacito spoke with a shy smile, "Jesus! you can actually talk more than few words." Jade said surprised.

"Of course I...can!...when it comes...to Yurei...I can talk... forever about him!...I love him!" Tacito replied fiddling with his ring, "BABYYYYYYY! I LOOOVE YOUUUU!" Yurei started crying as he threw himself at Tacito, hugging him while sobbing.

"Is he crying for real?!" Jade asked, "So cute!" Garrick and Faunus said in union.

"What's cute about it?...Relationships are overrated!" Jade said shaking her head in disgust, "I wish our Omegas would talk about us like that, like Tacito just did to Yurei.

I would cry too!" Garrick said sighing, "I believe such a thing might never happen, we are dating the Valentinos after all.

Romance is not their strongest suit." Faunus replied sighing as well.

"WE CAN HEAR YOU!!" Ned and Jasper shouted in union.

Hearing that, Garrick and Faunus looked at each other and chuckled, "We're fucked aren't we?" Garrick said amused, "I believe we are, Father." Faunus replied chuckling.

"I'm Father now?"

"You do not like it?"

"I like it... makes me feel like I i belong here." Garrick replied, "I am grateful I can call you that...better than calling you brother-in-law which is what I would have had to use if you continued dating Fernando." Faunus said.
