Chapter 124: Special Occasion

Time passed and Gerard didn't realize he was too tired and slept off as well. They both remained like that until his eyes snapped open and he found himself in his room.

He had slept for so long and it was already morning. He jerked up from bed and wondered how he got there. Nonetheless, he was grateful to whoever got him there before the sun rose.

Tired, he walked out of his room with a toothbrush in his hand and his hair in a messy state.

This was so unlike Gerard who always looked perfect in the eyes of so many.

As he walked past the staff, everyone stared at him surprised but he didn't realize this until he heard Diana's voice.

"Brother..." She ran up to him with a plate of soup in her hand. She dropped the soup on the table and checked his body like a security inspector.

Gerard looked at her confused. "Do you want to die?" he joked around but had a serious expression. He wasn't used to people touching him in that manner except for Ayla, not even Diana.

She stopped in her actions and looked up then smiled awkwardly. Her face turned serious almost instantly and she looked at him confused.

"Why? ...why are you looking at me like that?" He asked it was only then that his eyes scanned the room and realized that everyone was weirdly looking at him.

"What? Is there something on my face? Don't you all have something to do?" he asked in his usual cold tone and the place because chaotic. The staff rushed away but they couldn't deny how happy they were to see their master this morning.

As soon as everyone was away, he turned his attention to Diana and asked why she was staring at him like that.

"Go ahead, speak."

Diana pursed her lips and thought of a suitable way to say this. "Did... Did the curse break already?" she asked unsurely and this question seemed to piss Gerard off.

He gave her a death stare and began to walk away. Talking about the curse was a sensitive matter to him and he didn't even like to hear the word curse.

"No no wait." she ran and caught up to him but he didn't want to hear anything. He knew that all the staff were depending on him because only when the curse is broken will they be able to speak.

That explains why they were all standing and watching him this morning but unfortunately, he didn't see any sign of their expectations becoming a reality.

"Enough Diana. You know I don't like talking about this issue." after saying that, he began to walk again but she didn't stop.

"When do you think you came in today?" she yelled after him and he paused in his steps.

That was a very important question because he had not seen Ayla this morning.

His eyes widened at the thought of doing something bad to her and turned to Diana worried.

***

In Gerard's room, Diana sat on the bed while Gerard paced the room in deep thought.

"So you're saying I only came in after the sun was up? How come I don't remember this?" he asked still confused even after Diana had explained to him about a million times.

"Uh-hm" she nodded and began to explain again.

"I rushed downstairs after oversleeping only to see you carrying Ayla in your arms with the blanket still wrapped on her body. You walked in and didn't say a word to anyone even though a lot of staff were staring in awe," she spoke as though she was telling a fantasy story to kids.

"It was magical." she ended her statement by saying that and smiling as though still remembering everything.

Gerard was still in denial. The curse couldn't have just vanished like that, he could still feel the difference and knew for sure that he was still cursed.

"So what do you think? Do you think the goddess is finally convinced that you have changed?" she asked enthusiastically but Gerard shook his head.

"No. I would know if the curse has been broken. I still feel cursed." he knew he was still cursed but he believed Diana even though it was unbelievable.

"How can you know for sure? What if the curse is already broken and you don't even know?" Diana pouted.

"No. I would know. Besides..." he pointed to his chest and she looked at him sceptically.

"...it still hurts like it was yesterday." after he said this, Diana's shoulder dropped. As long as his heart still hurt like that, it means the curse isn't broken yet.

He sighed and decided to focus on something else. "Should I call her?" he turned to Diana talking about Ayla.

"Nah... She would probably be in class by now." Diana remained and he nodded.

Ayla left early after Gerard left her room and went to school without knowing what had happened either.

Diana was not willing to back down from the previous conversation. "But what do you think is the reason for that occurrence?"

Gerard sighed and looked at her. She thought he was going to say something in response to what she just asked but his next statement shattered her hope.

"Don't you have your room?" he asked with his arms folded and his voice as cold as

the North Pole

She pouted her lips and shrugged. "I do but that's not the case now." she pushed it aside but Gerard didn't seem to want to continue the conversation.

He began to walk to the bathroom. "Used the door," he spoke with finality leaving her in shock.

Diana scoffed and got up feeling wronged. "It's obvious that the curse is t broken yet," she murmured and unexpectedly got a response.

"I'll let the goddess know how disrespectful you have been," Gerard responded from the bathroom and Diana dashed out scared that she might be the next cursed girl.

Gerard stayed under the shower for a long time thinking about how staying under the sun was possible.

He closed his eyes and tried to recall what happened but nothing came. He didn't seem to recall anything that happened.

The water flowed for a very long time until he finally walked out of the bathroom.

Sighing, he dried his hair with a towel then looked up only to see Ayla seated on his bed. Her beautiful long white hair and her alluring clear skin like snow were eye-blinding.

Gerard blinked twice and shook his head. Ayla had never been to this room before but seeing her there now made him feel as though she was part of his life from the very beginning.

She turned around and looked at him with a smile on her face but she soon began to fade away but her smile was permanent.

Gerard reached for her but she completely disappeared and he blinked twice wondering if he was starting to have hallucinations and insomnia.

Shaking his head, he picked up his phone hurriedly and dialled her number.

Shortly after, he got a response from the other end. "Hey you..." her lively sweet voice filled his ear and he couldn't help but sigh in relief.

"When will you be back?" he asked desperate to see again.

"Mr Gerard, it hasn't even been two hours since I left the house. Besides, I want to go to

CSG to take a look at the company before tomorrow." she had already told Gerard about the job interview with CSG and he approved of it. In fact, he was happy for her.

"Um... Don't be late." was his short response and she nodded in understanding.

"Okay..." the lines got disconnected and she smiled at her phone before walking back to class.

Just after the lines got disconnected, Gerard received a been on his phone. It was a reminder about today's date and he sighed then his lips curved upwards slightly.

He clasped his hand and rubbed it together as though preparing for something. "Well, let's get to work."

He made some calls and was busy all day preparing for this special day. He didn't let the thought of the early morning drama disturb him at all.

Gerard slumped on the bed tired from the preparations and stared at his hand tiredly. "So this is what it feels like to do some physical work."

Just as he was talking, his phone rang and it was Madison. He didn't want to answer her call but she soon became a nuisance.

"What!"

"You sure are feisty today. Are you maybe in that time of the month?" Madison joked around comparing him to a woman on her period.

Gerard sighed and hung up not even waiting for her to say a word but as expected, she called back.

"Don't waste my time." he coldly spoke and she knew he wasn't in the mood to joke around.

"So, what do you have planned out for today's special occasion?" she asked inquisitively but his response was dismissive.

"It's none of your business.. Mr Jarek knows how to treat his woman."
