Chapter 2

Daisy looks at her with confusion. "Shelly, are you okay? You look like you've seen a ghost." She chuckles at her jokes.

"Um...nothing. Do you want to take that necklace?" She asks with a surprised look.

"Yes. Does it...forbidden? Because if it is, I can put it back and find something else." The girl is about to put it but Shelly holds her wrist.

"No!!" She accidentally yells. Daisy looks at her with confusion. "I--I mean...you can take it. I'm just shocked because it looks so beautiful."

Daisy chuckles. "I know right? Can I...have this?" She timidly asks.

Shelly smiles and grabs the necklace. Before the girl could say something, she put the necklace on her. Her eyes didn't miss the glowing light on that crystal. A small smile appeared on her face.

"Dear, I want you to take care of this. It's precious." The old lady smiles. Daisy nods with her sweet smile. "Oh well. See you later, dear."

"Thank you for your warm welcome, Shelly. You d of Nana." Remember Nana always gives her a warm welcome. Daisy gave the old lady one last hug and went out.

Shelly stood there with a relieved smile. Finally, she waits for years for someone who is chosen to take the necklace. "She is the chosen one."

Today was her day off. She walked in the park taking the fresh air. Even though she tried to work today but Nana firmly told her not to. She sits on the bench enjoying the scenery in front of her. Her hands played with the necklace she just got.

"Daisy?" A voice called her name. As she turn her head, she saw her ex-boss from the restaurant.

"Oh hey, Mr Frank." She smiles.

"Hello. What are you doing here? Are you okay? Because you look so deep in thought." Mr Frank said.

Daisy gives him a reassuring smile. "I'm fine. Just enjoy the scenery." She chuckles.

That man looks at her from head to toe. There's nothing new about her. But, she looks so glowing and more different than he met at the restaurant.

"You look so glowing today. Why you are not like this when at work? If you like this I wouldn't have to fire you." He jokes. Mr Frank sits beside her making the girl scoots away from him a bit. "So, how are you?"

"I'm fine. Why you ask?" She arches her eyebrows.

"Because you always fell asleep at work." Mr Frank chuckles.

"I live alone Mr Frank. So, I need to find multiple part-time works to accommodate my life." The girl states.

Mr Frank smiles and leans forward to her. "I'm sorry for firing you. I need you back if you want though." He said. His words make Daisy looks at him with shock. Why would he suddenly want her?

Her confusion makes the guy chuckle. Is she this adorable this whole time? How can he didn't realize it? "It's fine. I think I'm fine with one job already. Besides, I don't want to ruin your restaurant reputation." She awkwardly chuckles.

"Oh no. You didn't. I just...stress that time." The guy said.

Daisy mentally frowns. His action was so weird. Somehow, it makes the girl uncomfortable. Why do all the guys she met always have a creepy vibe around them?

"Uh...thank you for the offer, Mr Frank. But I have to go. I'm late for work." Daisy lied as she stood up and fix her bag. Before that guy could respond, she spokes. "It's nice to see you again, Mr Frank!! Bye!!"

Nana swipe the floor and cleaned the bookstore. Suddenly, the door slams open making the old lady jolt in shock. Her hand rubbed her chest. "Daisy!! What was that for!?" She scolds the young girl.

"I'm sorry, Nana. I just...run from someone. Even I know he didn't run after me." She sighs.

"You have an off day today, dear. Why did you come?" Nana asks, put the broom away.

"I'm bored. What else I can do?" The girl whines.

Nana chuckles and shakes her head slightly. But not too long. Her smile dropped when saw the necklace. Her eyes were wide open in shock.

"Phew. I'm so tired..." She sits in front of the counter, fanning herself with her hands.

"Dear, where did you get that necklace?" Nana asks.

"Oh, this?" She smiles. "I got it from the store you ask me to go to!! Shelly person. She welcomes us with a warm welcome." Just remember about that old lady, make her smile.

"She let you keep that necklace?" Nana asks again.

"Yup. At first, she seem shocked but then she gave it to me. It's beautiful right?" Daisy shows it to her.

The old lady gives a smile and nods.

Daisy spends her time reading books at the bookstore. But Nana has warned her not to do any work. She once try to sneak to help her but only got whoops on her butt with brooms.

She lost track of time. Dark fill the sky. "Bye Nana!! See you tomorrow!!" Daisy waved at the old lady before going out.

Soon she was out of sight, Nana grabs her phone and call her friend of her. A few seconds later, she pick up. "Hello?"

"Hello, Nana. What's wrong?" Shelly asks.

"Is it true that you let Daisy have that necklace?" She asks.

Shelly smiles and took a sit. "Yes. Surprising isn't it?" She asks her friend with an amusing tone.

"Shelly, is she the chosen one? I mean...it might be impossible." Nana grew concerned about that innocent girl. She doesn't know anything.

"Yes, she is. If not, that necklace wouldn't have called her and let her touch it. Do you know what happened if not the chosen one touched it?" She chuckles.

Nana couldn't help but worried. Is that girl can manage the sudden news that will hit her?

_______________________________

The elevator door opened, and she went out. As she is about to walk, someone grabs her wrist. She looks behind and it is none other than Thomas.

"T--Thomas?"

"Last time you manage to run away from me but now...no one can save you." He closes her mouth making the girl struggle in his grips. Thomas drags her to his apartment. "Now, you will always be my side." He chuckles.

This obsession is scaring her. Why can't he understand that she doesn't like him? Yes, it is hard to accept rejection but we have to respect people's boundaries. Once that person said no, mean no.

"Let me go!!" She yells in his hand.

"No!! I love you, Daisy. Why can't you see that!? Huh!!??" He growls. They are about to reach his apartment.

Daisy whines trying to escape. She elbows his stomach making the guy groans in pain. She takes that chance to run.

"H--Help---Ahh!!" The guy tackles her to the ground. "Please T--Thomas, let me go!!--Ahh!!" He slaps her hard enough to make her lips bleed.

"You need to accept me!! I have everything for you. Please, Daisy!! You need to notice me!!!" Thomas grips her wrist enough to make it bruise.

"T--Thomas...p--please..." She cried.

He laughs like a maniac. "You think you can run from me? Do you think you are beautiful enough to get another man!? HUH!?" The guy took out a knife and make her eyes wide open. "Let me make your face turn even more gorgeous."

Daisy squirmed and struggled to escape. She hates the fact that she can't fight. How she wishes she can but right now, only fear fills her body.

Tears slid through her cheeks. The knife gets closer to her face until one light occurred. Both of them were stunned by the lights. Out of a sudden, Thomas got thrown across the room.

"Ahh..." He groaned in pain.

Daisy slowly gets up trying to absorb what happened. Suddenly, one vision appeared.

It was a vision of her closet door opens reveals another world in it.

Her breath hitches and her eyes open. Thomas tries to stand up and the cur of her to run. She slams the door closed and locks it. Push one drawer to defend the door.

BANG BANG!!

"Daisy!! Open this door!!!" Thomas banged the door.

She slowly stepped back. Then, her necklace glowed. "What the--" The closet door slams open. The girl stumbles back.

She frowns slowly walking towards it. But not until she got to pull forcibly to enter the closet.

"AHHHHH!!!!" The closet door closed.

Thomas push in the door. He only sees empty apartments.

Daisy yelled as she falls to nowhere. All she can see around her are weird lights. "AHHHH!!! HELP!!!!!!" The light getting brighter makes her close her eyes.

The portal opened and one girl came out of it. She falls to the grass, groaning in pain. "Ouch..." She slowly sits up. Her hands clutching her bruise wrists even more bruise. "That was amusing." Daisy mumbles. The birds chirping take her attention. She lifted her head and looks around.

"Where...the hell I am?"
