The beginning.
I am Agath.
The now supposed adopted daughter of a wealthy woman, Almighty Han. I was born into a rather rough background nothing to write about. Struggling, fighting for my right to live but all that ended after I met Almighty Han, the special name I call her. Immigrating to another country far from home without a visa though illegal I did it, just so I can never be found. Mayle is the country. In fact I don't want to be found until I prove myself successful. Wilson city, Mayle my life changed. At first for the better and maybe not...
The heavens I'll say helped me that day. Trying to steal crumbs of leftovers I saw I saved Almighty Han accidentally. Though accidental I saved someone, Almighty Han.
From this day I still don't know how and when it all happened but it did. She was grateful, she gave me both verbal and cash gratitude which I took willingly. I slept under brigdes as I could not get a place or a house I was just an illegal immigrant then. But Almighty Han's cash gift did a lot for me , it at least lasted me for two weeks on feeding.
I don't how it happened but I met Almighty Han again. Was it just the heavens helping me? Yes the heavens, they were helping me. Unlike our first meeting this second meeting completely changed my life in an unexpected way. Seeing me again she said, "I have been looking for you". I my mind I am like 'Me?' I looked around me until she repeated her words to me, it was as if she read my mind then she goes again, "Yes you I've been searching for you". Her words now is the confirmation I got that she was addressing to me. I responded with, "Oh Ma but I've been alive and here" she laughed at my response while I was curious to what statement I made that was funny was it my 'Oh' or my ' I've been alive ', I don't know. She spoke again, "I like you" now my mouth was wide open in shock then I say out of astonishment, "Ma why do you like me? Are you a lesbian or a pedophile? I'm still a child" I felt I sounded and looked pitiful at that moment , I felt the looks from her bodyguard's like they were amused by what I just said and maybe thought I was stupid. Again she laughed it was harder than the first. And I wondered now am I funny because she laughed every time I said something, I even had the impulse of asking her 'I'm I funny?'. Just about to ask when she spoke again with smiles all over her face, "Dear I don't mean my words like that and it's just that I feel a special connection to you". The only words I could mutter because at this point I was already dumbfounded, "Special? Connection Ma?". Her reply, "Yes". She offered me food, delicacies I knew about but never tasted. We conversed for a long time surprisingly I told her everything, from my background like everything. Maybe I did feel that special connection too. I kinda of felt a bond, I think it's because she was the first person that showed me kindness in Mayle. She took me home, I was just 15 then.
Fast forward to three years. I am now a citizen of Mayle, a Maylen. Almighty Ham made it possible. With the help of Almighty Han all went well for me. She had five children, three boys and two girls. I can say they all liked me... Lyon and Ian I call them my big brothers though not blood related. Ren the senior, I call him by is name we are not particularly close he treats me as family. And I even sometimes get the illusion he treats me specially unlike the way he treats the others. Zara we are family but Jill... I feel weird about her and I don't know why. We interact but not as much and we often quarrel a lot but I know she cares about for sure. Almighty Han's husband died living a lot of assets and responsibilities for her. The assets not my business and since I started working at age seventeen, I tried as much as possible to pay some of my bills but they won't let me. In short we are now a family of seven and I am the baby of the house.
The Present
I got pregnant for someone I know nothing about, someone I've never met and married at the age of eighteen. It ruined my life and my meticulous plans for my future. But I had to carry the children. Yes children, they are quadruplets. Getting pregnant I had to get married to the father of the still not born children. I was forced by Almighty Han not because she didn't love me but because that was her only choice so as to protect me. I resisted the marriage, I assured my siblings that I will be able to take care of the children. All was futile it was not their choice to marry me off to 'that man' but his choice and I ultimately got married. Almighty Han, all three brothers even Jill was scared to marry me off to 'that man'. Zara I felt jealousy from her but I did not think too much of it.
I married, multiple times I tried to get rid of the pregnancy and maybe by then I could finally be free. But I never got the chance, he never gave me. So I treated "that man" and 'his' children with contempt I tried everything to divorce him but he never once let me go. I tagged him a perverted lunatic.
Twenty -three years and five years of being married he finally let me go using both my life and one of 'his' child's life, ' it was not in my plan to harm the child but I still used him'. My actions protrays me bad an irresponsible wife and mother but I did not care I just wanted to be free. And I was free from him. Within the span of two years I lived miserablely, I could barely fed. My life changed for the worse. Divorcing 'that man' I never took the assets he gave me. I wanted nothing to do with him. I hated him. For me marrying him made my future bleak.
Zara the best friend I thought she was, she used me. All to get 'that man' she wanted him for herself and she needed me out of the way. I never realised. Zara took over the Han family, becoming powerful. There was no one left in the Han family except her, using me as their weakness. I was oblivious to all this. Now knowing this I still could not do nothing. I am powerless to her. I hid from the world. She got me out using 'that man's' child, I had to come out of hiding. With no plans on how I am going to save 'his' child I still went. Cause after all I'm still the mother. Ironic to say after all I did. But still I could not let Zara kill him that the best I can do. I know what she is capable of. Meeting her after so long she told me about her planned conspiracy and how foolish I was. I could finally 'see' everything. I was such a fool. Everything was over. She pulled out a gun, my gun which I got from Ren. She shot thrice and I died.
I'm not sure but from my subconsciousness I saw 'that man' kill Zara and Luther. Took me 'home'. The man I thought I knew as perverted, a lunatic, cold hearted actually cried and killed himself. For my death, I was gone. Lying in his own blood looking at me he said, "I love you Gath" then he died. I came to the realisation 'that man' loves me , he was not what I thought he was, he just loves me and I was too dumb, blind to see it. I regretted it but it's too late now.
The Present
A dream but it felt so real. Was it really a dream? I don't think so, I think it's a rebirth.
Going back to the years passed when everything started, the begining.
Looking around me confused, I saw him.
Staring at 'that man' I was lost in his eyes.
'That man', Dwight Zhan .
My husband.
Staring at him I can only say in a tiny voice, "Husband"
🥺😁🥺
