I made my way into the store. When I pushed the door open, it didn’t open.
It was locked, and I could tell that it was locked from inside.
Luckily, I have my powers.
Since the glass doors were locked from inside, that ant Luca was inside, making teleport inside the store.
I wouldn’t lie, but I super love my powers. I an, who wouldn’t love them?
So, I have been to Luca’s jewelry store up to seven tis in the past after I saved his life. I had to visit him then after learning about his store and its location, because I feared that he might try to end his life.
During my third visit to his store five years ago, Luca had gotten a little better, thanks to . Yeah, let brag. His face was pale, but not that pale, and he looked more alive compared to before.
He told what had happened to him.
It was his girlfriend who betrayed him.
The sa girlfriend he had cared for after her parents died. And just when he proposed to her and asked her to marry him, she told him that she was already engaged to soone else and that her wedding was a week later.
She said she didn’t want to get married to a guy like Luca who wouldn’t be able to spend lavishly on her.
She even had the audacity to threaten him not to attend her wedding ceremony, as she didn’t want her super-rich, soon-to-be husband to have any problems with her.
At that mont, I could only sympathize with him and helped him scold his invisible girlfriend. I said invisible because she was not present with us at that mont.
And for the first ti ever, I saw a smile on Luca’s face as he stared at quietly.
I never knew that my helping act would make him fall in love with and beco obsessed. He showed his basent and bragged to about everything that he was capable of doing. Including that, he was the heir to the diamond city’s leading car industry.
But he gave his younger sister the temporary responsibility of handling the company for him as he followed his passion in life. And his passion was being a jeweler and a technology genius. Hence, that was the reason why he had a secret basent in his jewelry store. Additionally, his ex-girlfriend had no idea about his true identity. That was why she betrayed him.
"Hey". I called, but no one answered .
After searching for him in the store and I couldn’t find him, I knew for sure that he would be inside his basent.
I pictured the basent in my head, before I teleported there.
As expected, I saw Luca there. He was lying on the sofa like a complete moron. In his hand was a small-sized bottle of liquor.
A sad lody was playing.
It was so sad that I would believe it if soone told that the song was created for the purpose of people saying farewell to their deceased.
’What the heck happened to him?’. I wondered. His clothes were ssy, and his once beautiful purple hair was ssed up.
"Hey, wake up". I casually said to him with my arms wrapped on my abdon.
Luca coughed and turned on the sofa, causing the bottle of liquor that he was barely holding onto to fall. Despite that, he didn’t wake up and continued to sleep.
I walked towards him, before I flicked his forehead with my fingers.
"Ouch". He groaned tiredly, and began to toss and turn back and forth on the sofa.
His brows furrowed, even his closed eyes were moving.
I grew annoyed. Using my light magic, I made the music stop.
And seeing that Luca did not want to wake up, I squatted next to him and made sure that my mouth was close enough to his ear as I yelled at him, "I said, wake up!!".
My loud voice did the trick. Luca jerked up and fell on the floor. Oh, he fell on first, before he landed on the floor.
When he saw , he flinched and his eyes widened. He pointed a finger at , "Who the heck are you and how did you get into this place?!". He panicked.
I didn’t reply to Luca, I just quietly rose to my feet with my eyes fixed on him.
Then, I removed the cap of my hoodie from my head.
Seeing my face properly, I saw Luca’s confused face. He must be trying to recall where he must have seen my face before.
"Wait a sec. You are Alpha Anastasia!". He exclaid, and since I didn’t deny his claim, he stood up like the speed of light.
"Wh- what are you doing in my store’s basent? How did you even know soone like ?". He asked , before he took a glance at his technology equipnt and then at .
He did this action continuously.
"Stop doing that. You look creepy". I told him as I made my way towards him, causing him to step away from like a kitten.
How ironic.
This scene reminds of my previous self. At a particular mont five years ago, after Luca had started to heal from his girlfriend’s betrayal, thanks to my aid, I had to return to his store after I forgot an important docunt there. When I returned to pick up the docunt, I saw Luca sitting with the docunt in his hand.
It was clear that he had expected to return.
I expected him to hand over the docunt to , but instead, he rose from the sofa he was sitting on and began to walk towards with an intense gaze, while I retreated from him.
He continued to walk towards until I was trapped by the wall.
Luca placed his hand on the wall, his gaze never left mine, the sa as .
All of a sudden, he confessed his feelings for . What I did at that mont was blink in confusion, until I realized what he had said to and I punched his face.
After he fell to the ground, I picked up the docunt and left.
And since then, I have never returned to his store again, until now.
"Hey, you haven’t answered my question. How do you know my store and my basent?". Luca asked as he finally stopped retreating from .
I halted.
"I need not answer your question, whatever your na is. The thing is, I was able to find out with the help of my powers that you are great with technology. So, I want you to make two bracelets for . A pair of bracelets that will be able to alert each other when they are in danger. A pair of bracelets that can also show the location of the other bracelet after the danger alert. Do you think you can make such bracelets for ?".
