Chapter 1 : Glance

Ritz

"Goodbye Riri, You behave okay? Call us anytime you want and when it needed too. Keep safe, we will miss you Ija...and take care!!!"

"Take care Ija, We'll go now..."

"Okay grandpa and grandma... please take care you too, I love you both!!!"

Currently, I'm at my favourite beach resort now. I want to spend my whole weekends here. As you can see, this is my only time and chance to do this kind of things to unwind myself a bit and to feel relax for a moment. Honestly, this is the third time I am treating myself, like this whenever they aren't around.

They are both on a business trip together and it will serve also as their vacation too. So, I still have a days to be alone and I am free absolutely to do what I want now. This is all I can do for myself. To keep on going even if it's really hard to fought against them in this past few days.

Aside from aiming to be the next owner of their company, to our own family business. I have no other goal aside from that. I am just aiming nor rather claiming my original position which they had promise to me from the very beginning to be mine when the right time comes and as soon as I gained more more experienced inside their company, in a normal position only.

I spent my life living with them and working on their company without any sign of disapproval. Three years had been past but I still working on proving myself to them too. I'm still untrustworthy to their sight even now, even if I am their only granddaughter and their heiress.

I sat on the white sand and feel the air that touches my bare skin. The sun is rising up slowly and it is enjoyable to watch it closely.

A minutes passes and the rising sun is starting to shine bright and heat up but the cold waves suddenly mixed up, flowing on my bare feet and reaching my knees. I am now laying on the sand which is giving me the relaxation that I needed.

The endless sound of the waves is like a music to my ears that gives me a little chill down to my spine. It is refreshing indeed and the money that I spent to book a room here was so worth it.

And for a while, I close my eyes just to feel this moment. No words nor questions are occupying on my head now.

I stayed on the bay for an hour and decided to go back on my room to get some rest and sleep too.

As I continuously walking by, I suddenly bump to someone. I instantly to get her things back to her when I got recover first from the impact that our clash cause. She slowly held her things on her arms and simply say thank you! to me.

I don't easily recognized her but when her hair flips in the air slightly because of the sudden wind around us. I can't utter any words to say after I see her clearly.

" You?"

This is all I can say as of this moment. I'm starting to be confused now and its irritates me more.

"You?" She repeated.

"Why are we alike?"

We blurted out together. She's starting to get confused too. All we can do now is to stared on each other faces with so many questions on our minds.

"May I know your name first?"

"Rizz Jimenez, and you are?" She answered.

I was bitting my nails now and my mind just blown out already. Maybe it just a coincidence? as I convinced myself more.

"Rizz Jimenez, right?"

"Yes!"

I'm panicking now. What to do? This is bad. A very very bad one. I'm so confused. All of this are so confusing!

Maybe I need to calm down first. We needed to clam a bit first. This is so unreal. How can I proudly to said this word when I am not so sure about it? Is this for real?

" I suggest that we need to talk about it in my room. It is more comfortable there and I think this is a serious matter between us so we need this talk to clear this

thing out."

She just nod without any disapproval.

As soon as we get inside on my room. I decided to make a coffee for both us.

I take a quick shower while she's on the terrace having her cup of coffee that I prepared. When I was finished, I walk directly to where she is and sat on the chair, in front of her.

I slightly cough to get her attention.

"By the way, to answer your question a while ago. I am Ritz. Ritz Jimenez. As you can see, we were both having the same surname, right?"

"No way? same surname, why? What could be the reason?" She asked.

"I don't know. I really don't know. It is the same question I had in my mind."

"It can't be right? How this is all happen?"

She's bitting her nail too just like mine a while ago. We have the same mannerisms when we were having trouble or panicking. This must be a coincidence too.

"We were alike. We are having the same surname and even the mannerisms, were both identical. What to do? We only need a greater proof here."

"What if we get tested first. A DNA test, just to be sure. Don't you agree?" She requested.

"Yes, I agree. We need the result as soon as possible."

After this sudden meet-up with my unidentified twin? or just a close relatives. My world went back again when they contacted me, out of nowhere.

It just a message from them but it can slap me back to the reality.

Tomorrow is my last day here. I and Rizz decided to get tested tomorrow right away. Before we go on our separated way, we will go first to my private doctor and a loyal friend to help us in our plan.

I can't make my meal for tonight because I am to exhausted to everything that was happen today. It made me almost insane for a while.

I was laying on my bed now and Rizz is back on her room too to rest also.

We don't know anything and everything yet. But, we must plan to work this thing out, to satisfy us and answer all of our questions in our mind.

And the last day came.

We do have fun on our last day here. We spent our precious hours to talk and laugh about things that we discovered about ourselves and each other.

Even if we didn't have the proof or a result right now. We already considered each other as a siblings and a bestfriend too, in a short period of time.

After we watch the sun goes down, we directly go to our own car and drove to our next destination.

But before we finally get to the exit and get out to this resort. We still waited for a few minutes to slowly move out there.

As I look at the view outside in my open window, on the driver seat. I have sudden get a short glance to a person, a man.

On his back view, he seems so build up and healthy but when he unexpectedly look at my direction, our eyes met. Did I just imagining things or rather losing mind in having this thought and feels. Why I am suddenly get conscious about it? What it wrong with that? and What is wrong about me?

"Did all of that just back fire on me? What I am thinking?"

I'm losing my insanity now.

"Well..."

It doesn't matter anymore now, as if...

"We will going to see each other again"

Well...

"Who knows?"

to be continued.
