Chapter 1 - PROLOGUE

Here's the translation:

"SLAM! I plopped down on the couch to catch my breath when my hand accidentally brushed against a small box containing... a photo album - ours, mine and Lucas'. I took it and sat back down, getting comfortable before flipping through the album filled with memories of us. As I opened it, a picture of Lucas during our first dinner date appeared, and he was shyly covering his face... so cute. "You're so adorable here, Hoshi..."

The next page showed our 7th hangout, where we played billiards and I beat him. "Haha, I miss those times, sigh..."

The third page was from our training session at the multi-purpose gym, and Lucas had a cute smile... so annoying!

The fourth page was from when we attended his family gathering, and we took a mirror shot together. "I was so happy when he held my waist... butterflies!"

The next page was from our vacation in Boracay with friends, where Lucas looked handsome while staring at the moon... "He's so handsome, no matter the angle or time..."

But then I saw pictures of him with Zrinadia, his mom's secretary... "Tsk, they're so close... I wonder what's going on."

The last page was our wedding picture two years ago... I burst into tears. "I miss you, Lucas... where are you? It's been a year..."

Just then, the doorbell rang. I got up, wondering who it could be... and then I saw Lucas standing at the door. I rushed to hug him, but he pushed me away harshly. "Don't touch me... you're filthy."

A woman emerged from behind him - Zrinadia. "You served your purpose. Now, you're obsolete. This house is yours... compensation. But don't touch Zrinadia... or you'll face consequences."

I was stunned, hurt, and angry. "What did you do to my husband, Zrinadia?!"

Lucas pushed me again, and I fell, hitting the vase and getting injured. "You'll understand pain... beyond your wildest nightmares."

Zrinadia smirked. "Don't worry, I'll make sure Lucas never forgets me."

I cried out in pain and despair... "Why did you become like this, my Hoshi? Why are you so painful to love, Lucas?"

Later, I called my friends in our group chat, and they comforted me... "We're coming to see you, Aileen..."
