I sipped the soup on the spoon I was holding and then savored the taste. Maybe it's okay, maybe Damon isn't an avid fan of sour, is he?
I immediately put out the fire on the stove then put the lid back on the casserole and then washed the plates.
He said he would go to sleep, it looked like he would wake up later, the coffee he was making for me had also cooled down.
When I finished washing the plate I swept, I stopped sweeping when Damon suddenly came down the stairs.
"Hey, you're awake. Your food is ready, then your coffee is cold, do you just want to mix it?" I asked, he just looked at me, from head to toe then frowned when he looked around.
"Am I at home?" I heard him whisper so I frowned.
"That's right, I'm at home." He said then looked at me. "Ms. Are you wrong about the house being cleaned?" My jaw dropped at what he said.
"Huh?" I asked confused.
"Wait who are you and why are you at my home?" He asked, is this Damon joking? All right, then I'll just take him to his joke.
"I'm Erelah, your girlfriend." I gasped, he seemed surprised by what I said so I laughed. You thought you're not the only one who can make a trip with the two of us, Damon.
"G-Girlfriend?" He asked in shock and then wiped his face. "W-when?" I laughed then acted hurt. What was your trip, Damon?
"It's been a long time, don't you remember?" I asked tearfully, he was immediately alarmed and approached me.
"H-ha so-sorry." He said then hugged me reason to stop me. Immediately the beating of my chest quickened, I felt time stop because of what he did. I blinked a few times until he pulled away from hugging me and looked at me.
"I-I'm sorry if I forgot." I stared him in the eye, no trace of joking could be seen there so I laughed and pushed him away from me.
"What are you, Damon? What's so crazy about you? You've already eaten, it looks like you've gone hungry again." I laughed and then said that I would just continue sweeping. I was about to step away from him when he spoke.
"Damon?" He asked so I looked at him. "W-who's Damon?" I was stunned by what he said and a little horrified. Did an evil spirit possess him so that he could not remember his name?
"You, Damon what? That's enough. You're scary, just eat there." I said then touched the dustpan next to me.
"But my name isn't Damon." I was even more stunned by what he said, I looked at him and then backed away.
"Lord God, if anyone hears me, please cast out the evil spirit that has merged with Damon's body," I whispered then signed off the cross.
"What are you doing? Wait, I'll just clarify. My name isn't Damon so maybe you're mistaken in thinking I'm your boyfriend. My name is Achaz, not Damon. Achaz." It said the reason for my jaw to drop.
Achaz? Isn't that his second name?
"Hey Damon, I don't know about you, just sit down and I'll get you ready, I'm the one who's scared of you," I said then I left the broom and dustpan and went to the kitchen.
"Sit down, I cooked you porridge. Do you want me to brew you coffee again? It looks like your coffee is cold." I said, he was just looking at me so I quietly spooned rice and prepared his food.
He was confused to sit on the chair while looking at me, what is this man's trip again? It seems like a while ago he looked like a woman if he could talk about it and now he says that he is not Damon and his name is Achaz. Is he abnormal? Or maybe it's just a side effect of the medicine he's taking?
After I prepared the food for Damon, I told him to continue sweeping the living room, before that I first told Gazer to come here to Damon's house because I was terrified of Damon's actions.
I don't know if it's a prank or what Damon's trip is, but I'm really scared of him so I asked Gazer for help.
"Are you done eating?" I asked. Damon looked at me.
"You haven't eaten yet?" He asked me, I smiled and shook the table.
"I'm still full, I ate bread earlier," I said and continued to sneeze.
"By the way, if you're really my girlfriend, why aren't you sweet to me?" I was stunned by what he said and dropped my jaw because of his question. I looked at him in time and saw his startled expression.
Seriously? I thought he was just kidding me. Why does he seem to believe?
"Hey, I'm asking you." He said so I clenched my jaw and then laughed.
"Nothing." I just answered and then put the plate in the kitchen. Damn, Gazer, where have you been? I'm really scared of your friend
"Do you want us to date?" Our father was about to pray for me because of his question, I looked at him and we turned to him from his seat.
"H-ha?" I asked in shock.
"I said, do you want us to date?" He asked so I swallowed.
D-Damon? Damon, are you inviting me on a date? Is it serious?
"Erelah." Damon and I looked at the door when it opened, from where I was standing I saw Gazer who had just entered with Havacco.
"Hey cousin, did you get a visit?" I looked at Damon when he said that. He smiled looking at Gazer while Gazer was surprised and stunned by what Damon said.
"Cousin?" I asked so they looked at me. Did I think they were just friends?

"Erelah." I turned to the person who called me. Damon. He smiled at me beautifully while holding a small tray filled with medicines."Time to take medicine," Damon said to me so I smiled and nodded in agreement to what he said, he smiled and came to me then handed me a medicine capsule, I smiled and took it from him then he handed me a glass of water, again I took it at him while smiling and not taking off my eyes on him.I showed him how I take the medicine and even opened my mouth to prove that I had taken the medicine he gave me, I couldn't take my eyes off him, I felt like when I took my eyes off him he will be gone forever and it will be a long time before he returns.I don't want to miss him again so I don't even blink."Get some rest Erelah." He said so I immediately shook my head."I don't want to," I said quickly while looking at him."Erelah, you need to rest, go ahead and grow your eyebags." He said that's why I pouted causing him to laugh."I don't want to, you'll leave me
Killer's last word
I took a deep breath while looking into the void, I didn't know what I should do, if I would listen to my wishes or if I would keep the promise I made.I can't quite figure out if I should be selfish or if I should pay for all my sins.I don't want to live in a world where there is a heavy sin. Even before I met her, I wanted to disappear.Even before she came into my life, I was always looking for a way to end my life without feeling pain.But when she came, my world changed. I remember what she said before. "If you have a problem, pray, killing yourself is not the solution to all your problems." That's what always sticks in my mind every time I try to commit suicide.One day I tried what she said, I prayed even though I didn't know how. I didn't even know how to do the sign of the cross so I just went straight to telling him what I wanted to say. I asked for forgiveness for the mistakes I made, and I asked for guidance on whether to correct my mistakes.On the day of her father's fun
I love you Damon
"The paper of the first person found guilty of the murder of at least one hundred people and subjected to the death penalty this past week has been submitted to Malacañang. He is recognized as the first Filipino to be subjected to the death penalty after several years since the death penalty was repealed after the time of former president Ferdinand Marcos. The remains of the Serial Killer will be burned and placed in the north cemetery in Manila. While his lawyer is no longer answering the call to answer our questions. ."I turned off the television and then looked out the window of my room where I could see the children playing in the playground near where our house stands.I was stunned for a few minutes until I felt my tears flow again while not taking my eyes off the children playing.I slowly laughed while looking outside until my laughter turned into sobs that screamed at the pain I was feeling."Erelah." I slowly stopped crying and turned to the one who called me. Again I saw a
Courtroom
Erelah,How many more letters have I written to you? But no matter what I write and say on the papers I write, it is unlikely that you will read it because I know that what I write will not reach you nor will you know the things that I want to tell you.But I only want one thing to happen Erelah, that is for everything to be fine and to tell the truths that I have been hiding for a long time.Of all the lies I know, of all the lies I've done, there's only one thing I've never lied to, and that's to love you even when you're far away from me.Forgive me Erelah, forgive me.Damon.I don't know what is happening or why Damon rejected me, my heart is beating so fast, I can't rest. I feel like something bad is going to happen."Mr. Damon, you know for yourself what happened. As a friend, I want you to tell them the whole truth." The lawyer said. Damon looked at the lawyer, he took a deep breath then looked at me sadly before smiling and looking straight ahead again."I promised everyone her
The Hearing
Erelah.I'm not like other men who go out of their way to be with and respond to the women they love, but I'm one of those men who just looking at you from afar makes me very excited and my world is complete.People like you, and people like me were not blessed to be united and together for a long time, even if I wanted to be with you, there was nothing I could do. People like you are only for normal people like you. And someone like me deserves to disappear from this world. I am one of the people who longed to pass away and disappear from the surface of the world, but when you came, I became one of the people who lived a normal life in this world. But no matter how hard I try to cover up the real me, I know the truth will come out and come out, something I've been hoping for a long time to happen, to say all my mistakes in front of the majority and front of my young lady. SorryDamon.June 17, 2022The entire courtroom was silent as they looked at Damon sitting on the witness stand

I know I hurt you with what I said before but my true feelings are the opposite of what I said.I love you Erelah, I saw you for the first time the day you stopped me from jumping off the bridge. I don't know what's going through your mind why you stopped me but thank you, thank you for doing that I saw you, an angel with an angel name.It was only in a few years that I felt a strange feeling, a feeling where my heart was beating fast, another thing that rejuvenated me.If I have one wish, it's to hug you again, Erelah.Damon,May 3, 2022I took a deep breath and then looked at the court building where the second hearing in Damon's case will be held again.Today, the second hearing in Damon's case will be held again, yesterday after the first hearing, Gazer accompanied me home.He calms me down during our flight, he knows how excited I am to see Damon and talk to him but there's nothing we can do bec
