The Hercules Obssession

Chapter 1

Aliyah point of view

I couldn't help but be amazed while looking at the huge and beautiful mansion in front of me.

It is like a palace in size and beauty. "Aliyah!" I closed my gaping mouth and happily looked at Cassey running towards me and quickly hugging me.

I smiled and hugged him back. Cassey is my friend in Manila, she is poor like me but because of the kindness of God, there is a rich couple who adopted her.

Take note, he is not just rich but very rich because Chavilire was the only one who adopted him.

"It's good that Sister Riyah allowed you to stay here for two weeks." I nodded and smiled "Of course, Mama also wants me to have fun somehow."

Because I'm in Cebu right now and I'm at the Chavilires' hacienda, which is now Cassey's family. He invited me here because he said he misses me, which made me happy.

Even if it is said that he has become rich and our standard of living has moved away, he has not changed for me. He still considers me his best friend.

"Our best friend is beautiful, look at your skin, it's not dry anymore." I snorted and she laughed.

"You too, you look beautiful in the black dress you are wearing. You also look like a rich child." I immediately laughed at his joke.

That's why I love that we joke around, when we joke around I feel like it's true what he says I'm beautiful even though it's not true.

While we were walking into the mansion, we were stopped from talking and walking when someone called Cassey.

We turned to the side together and saw four young men wearing basketball shoes who seemed to be playing.

For a few minutes I watched them and I couldn't stop being amazed because they were so handsome. They don't look human anymore.

It was as if they were gods who came down to earth. There was almost no cover in their faces and I seemed to be ashamed of myself.

From being amazed at the young men, I looked down at a cute boy who was also wearing a basketball.

"Hi Sister Aliyah, I'm glad to see you here." I quickly giggled and immediately greeted Adam who was a six year old boy I kissed him on the cheek and he laughed too "I miss your tiredness so much baby Adam."

"Of course, you won't find anyone happier than me." when he rides on my praise. If we talk, it's like we're in a troop, so I'm very happy with this boy.

"Hi Ladies, Cassey who's this beautiful lady beside you?" The man smiled at me and winked at me.

I want to jump for joy because I look ugly there. I don't want to look stupid.

"No, Radius, stop my friend, it won't kill you." she looks like Cassey's mother, whom I hate.

What will not be punished? Can I kill that, pogi pogi, it's a shame if I waste it, right? haha

While the other handsome young man in front of me was snorting and staring. My eyes were fixed on a young man with green eyes who was also currently staring at me.

Like them, Radius is also very handsome, he seems to be one of the young Chavilires. Actually, he looks familiar, I just can't remember where I saw him.

Maybe it's because of his strange gaze that I felt lonely, even though I tried to smile at him because it was really awkward.

Instead of smiling back at me, he only frowned and his beautiful eyes grew colder.

I avoided looking at him because it looks like that man's brain is full. Cassey and I have said goodbye to the handsome Chavilires, maybe if it's just the two of us, I'll just hit him because of the popularity of his new cousins.

"Great Cas, the Chavilire boys really like it, don't they?" he smiled at me and nodded.

We are here in the garden of their hacienda and sitting on the bench, in front of us is a table full of delicious snacks like cakes and burgers.

I took a burger and bit into it. "How are you doing here? Are those who adopted you okay?" he swallowed what he was eating before he smiled sweetly and nodded.

"Of course, even if I'm just adopted and slapped here I'm like a Chavilire like them. Mama Emily and Papa Xander are very kind to me." while he was talking I could see the happiness in him.

I couldn't help but be happy too "Yes, by the way, tell me about them oh." I'm really curious about the Chavilires.

I couldn't believe that I was in their hacienda and facing the Chavilire boys that I used to only see on TV.

"Mama and Papa have only one son and that is brother Alessandro, I haven't seen him yet because they said Mama he is in America studying."

"In the Chavilire family, Papa Xander has four brothers, Uncle Rico, Uncle Rakim, Uncle Henry and Uncle Hendrick."

"Uncle Rico's children are Kiro and Kalix. Uncle Rakim is the father of Calculus, Sergio and Carmilla."

"Meanwhile Tito Henry has Radius' son, Adam and Bettina who are Radius' twins."

"And the last one is Uncle Hendrick who is the Papa of Hercules and Exodus, now you know who their papas are?" I nodded even though I was a little confused.

"Why aren't the others here? You seem to mention Chavilire a lot." he scratched his head and snorted.

"That's true, I haven't known or seen them yet because they are in the state now." I was the one who nodded, social in the state.

"Miss Cassey, Señora Emily and Don Xander are calling you." Our conversation was stopped when one of the assistants called him.

Cassey just said goodbye to me for a while before she left me outside their garden. When I was left I couldn't help but relax deeply and close my eyes.

The breeze is strong and fresh, it seems that it is better to live in this hacienda than in Manila which is full of smoke due to pollution.

I looked at the tall trees that are a little far from Cassey's garden, I can't help but feel sour because the mango man on the tree seems to be ripe.

I quickly stood up and approached the tree which was quite steep. It's easy for me to climb, especially since I used to love climbing trees, I can join the climbing gang at home, said our neighbors in Manila.

I looked at the black off-shoulder dress I was wearing that had a heart band in my future and was up to half a leg long in front of me, while the fabric was long in the back as if I was wearing a gown.

Cassey just gave it to me when he came to visit us before and he was already rich. I took off my 3 inches heeled shoes and started climbing the tree.

Like I said it's not difficult to climb that's why I immediately got two mangoes.

I quickly smiled and was about to get down when I heard a sound like something was slowly breaking down.

I looked at the small branch I was stepping on and before I could react, it completely broke causing me to fall into the steep tree." I couldn't help but scream and moan because of the pain of my fall. But I also immediately realized when I closed my eyes and looked at the person I knocked down.

My eyes widened just like that when his green eyes looked at me angrily.

"Excuse me." I stammered and grabbed Hercules by the arm to help him stand up.

I'm not sure if it's Hercules but he's the guy I smiled at earlier. "I'm sorry, I didn't really mean it" I said to him guiltily because I felt that he was hurt too much when I fell.

How heavy am I?

Even though I apologized to him, his eyes were still looking at me angrily "Why did you do that? You think we will give you money when something bad happens to you? Are you a gold digger child?"

His eyes were mocking just like the words coming out of his mouth "I didn't do that to get money from you, if you don't have anything else to say I will leave." My expression was blank while saying those words.

He's thinking so hard, he just fell out of a tree, I want money right away? Their money belongs to him because I didn't ask for it and I have no use for it even though Mom and I are short on life.

He is too sick to speak. I held my chest and frowned a bit. Even if I think like this, I can easily get hurt even if it's a simple insult.

He doesn't know me so he has no right to judge my personality.

"Aliyah, you'll be sleeping here later, there are only three rooms between our rooms, so if you need anything, you can go to my room." explained Cassey who was in front of me.

I looked at the guest room I was going to sleep in and I couldn't help but be amazed because it was beautiful and big even though it was just a guest room.

But I also winced because I couldn't help being scared "It looks scary here at night, are you sure there is no mumu in your house?" she laughed and asked me to enter the room.

"No, are you still afraid of ghosts?" I snorted.

"It's scary, if I can't sleep here in your room, I'll sleep." He nodded to me and said goodbye to go to his room.

He said he was going to do something.

All afternoon I did nothing but use my cell phone in bed or go to Cassey's room to make trouble.

Until night fell and we were all at the dining table with the entire Chavilire.

Even the shameless Hercules was sitting in front of me. I don't know if I'm blind or what, but it seems like he's been watching me for a while now and it's obvious.

I couldn't look at him even though he was in front of me because I didn't want to see him skinny.

"Hercules, you want to come with us? We are going to the bar." Radius said to him while whistling.

His Mama, Ms. Clara. "Radius can you please respect your food? Don't whistle there and take a seat." it's like a child because of how quickly it follows its mother.

I want to smile because even though they are rebellious, they still know how to listen "Aliyah, what grade are you in school again?" I looked at Aunt Emily when she asked me. He adopted Cassey.

"Grade 10 now."

"Grade 10? How old are you?"

"It's 14." His eyes widened as if he didn't expect my age "So my Cassey is two years older than you?" I nodded to him.

"I would like to give you a scholarship to the school of my husband's family here in the province, so that Cassey can have a companion." I want to be happy with what Aunt Emily said, just in case I can't stay here.

"I want to but I can't, I'm sorry Aunt." he smiled and stroked my hair.

I feel like Aunt Emily is my second mother, it's echusera if it's echusera, it's just a feeling.

The meal ended happily and now I'm in the bathroom of the guest room and taking a shower.

This day is tiring. I hope that tomorrow something good will happen to me in this hacienda.

I finished taking a shower and now I'm wearing a white pajama with a matching blouse.

I quickly went to the big bed and wrapped myself in a thick blanket because I was cold. The whole place was very cold because of the big air conditioner in the room.

I would like to slow it down but I don't know how. I might break even later, it's hard that I don't have any money to pay yet While staring at the ceiling, I thought of taking my cell phone to check Facebook. Even though we are poor, we are not even a single beak.

Our life is pretty good, it's just that I still have to work to help Mama.

While I was scrolling through Facebook, I was suddenly surprised by a scary ghost passing through my newsfeed. I still don't want to see scary things when I'm alone.

I swallowed and looked around, it was dark because the light in the room had been turned off. Is this what I'm saying, I can't sleep alone.

I swallowed and slowly got off the bed, the size and appearance of the room was like the child's room in conjuring two. The ghost was Valac.

Terrible!

Holding my cellphone with a flashlight, I slowly walked to the door and opened it The very dark corridor opened up to me and if I didn't have my cell phone with me, I really wouldn't be able to see what was outside the room I was staying in.

I felt even more scared and closed the door. I took a big step towards Cassey's room and before I could open it, someone suddenly said something behind me that made me jump and turn pale in fear.
