Eero sats gloomily while looking at the moon. He sees it again on his window. The same moon every night. He remembers again and again. He doesn't want to go outside. He doesn't want to eat...drink...move or even breathe. He wants to die. What is the meaning of living when everyone you love is already gone? He is still existing because of the curse. The curse that's been living in the family for hundreds of years now. It is inherited by the sixth son of the sixth son of the elder in the family. He doesn't know the reason of the curse. Only that it's his possession now. He would trade anything for it. He was once a happy man. He was living with his grandparents, mother, father, and his five siblings. Never he have thought that every one of them will be gone and leave him alone in this empty mansion. They are supremely wealthy. They have businesses all over the country and even abroad. He only calls for servants to clean his home once in a week. His assistant and constant companion, Vince, will tell him about the affairs of the company and other consecutive matters. Vince is in charge of his needs and the company's needs as well when he is not around.
Crisha was so tired. She's been waiting for hours now, in the line. She's trying her best to stay composed. She's in her third year college now. She needs this job to continue supporting herself.
She's an orphan. When she was young, a four-year old child, she always imagine that her parents will come by and take her with them. And that she will be pampered and showered with their love for her. She waited. She waited for years but no one came. Her life in the orphanage was tough. She was bullied and hurt physically and mentally, but she survived. She went out of the orphanage when she's thirteen and tried to hustle from one job to another. She became a dishwasher...cleaner... babysitter...helper...meat chopper...cook...etc...etc...
Any job that she could lay her hands on she will take it. At least now that she's living on her own terms and has her own rental apartment where she could live happily and peacefully. She is quite happy and contented. Only that she wants to finish her degree so she could get a permanent job.
"Ms. Wyse", says the lady in the front desk.
"You may come in now."
She paused for a while but regained herself when she heard her name being called. She says thank you to the front officer and get in the room as quickly as she can.
"H-i ss-iir", she stummers for a while when she was in front of the man-in-charged.
"Sit down Ms. Wyse", said the man.
She sat down and looked directly in the man's face. She could not help herself in critiquing the man's features. He was in his 50s and his hair was almost gone. His body was plump where a stomach could hardly hide in his trousers. His face doesn't show even a wry of smile. His eyes attentively looked at her.
"Why do you want this job?", he asked.
She thought for a while before she answers his question. She tells her story but only the part after she went out of the orphanage. All her struggles and hard-work before.
After she told him her story, she sees that he was quite pleased and intrigued with her.
"My assistant will tell you your duties and salary," said Mr. Robertson after listening to her.
She left his office and talked to Ms. Jennifer about the job.
When she's in her apartment, she bought her favorite pizza and a coke on the way home to celebrate her 'new job'. Now that she can afford the rent and other things for herself, she no longer need to put herself on a diet. She happily hums while eating and watching TV.
Eero is busy browsing his laptop and reading the files sent to him by Vince. After sometime, he closed his laptop and called Vince on the phone to ask about the company's situation. He sent Vince the files he was required to do. He called Vince to inform him of the matter.
He drank a glass of wine to cleanse the dryness of his mouth. He could only drink alcohol and nothing else. He slowly kills himself. If not by blade or bullet, he could try other means. Those two things could not harm him even his pinky.. He tried. His abilities are much more powerful than guns or swords. His strength is beyond belief. His senses could see thru other people's minds. He could hear their thoughts. He could see far and beyond. His speed is as of the fastest animal on the planet. But most of all, his crave of the flesh. His thirst to kill is uncontrollable.
