The Hate His Touch

The presence of Clara

2 Years Ana lives locked herself in her room. The longer he is forgotten. It's like he's not in this house. His father who always came to see his daughter was no longer

did that. His father, who used to beg his daughter to eat with him, does not do that anymore. My mom prefers to spend her time outside. Only the maids and chief maids still care about the forgotten 10-year-old girl. Ana harbors her own pain and sorrow She is saddened to be forgotten by her own daddy. He was sick because he had to bear all his own burdens.

Slowly he started to come out of the room and approached his daddy's room. He knocked on the room, but there was no word from within. Ana ventured to open the door. He just looks

emptiness in his parents' room. Slowly she stepped her little feet into the walk in closet that was in this room. He looked up at the surroundings. No more mommy stuff that used to always be here side by side with daddy stuff. Tears shed when

realizing that his daddy was starting to forget mommy. Slowly he came out of the walk in closet by dragging his limp body.

His steps came to a halt when he saw a pair of shoes in front of him. Without seeing who the owner of the shoe was he knew who was standing in front of him. He chose to stay down while walking out of his parents' room.

"Ana.." called her daddy, but Ana kept walking without even turning her head.

For him, obviously his daddy has forgotten mommy and his sister. It means that his daddy has forgotten himself too and hopes that he too will soon disappear. Ana tried to hold back her sobs by biting her lips until they bled.

"Miss..

Ana turned her head towards the chief maid who was in front of her room. He looked at the chief maid with his sorrowful gaze.

"Where's mommy's stuff?" ask Ana lirih.

"There's in the barn, miss," replied the chief maid.

Silent for a moment, Ana held her breath when she heard the chief maid's reply. He tried to stay calm even though he felt like he wanted to faint hearing that.

"Put all that in my room" he said.

Her heart ached hearing her daddy put all his mommy stuff in the barn. Ana is still a very fragile 10-year-old.

Since then, Ana has buried herself in her room. Sometimes he stared blankly at the picture of his family which was still complete with his mommy. Even since that incident his daddy did not try to explain to the

Ana about her mommy stuff. This family is as if destroyed without the presence of Miss Evelyn. Lucas spent more time in the office and in nightlife venues to vent

his loneliness. The maid chief felt concerned by the attitude of his great master who chose to leave his only daughter in need of his daddy's affection.

***

It didn't feel like 5 years had passed after that. Ana passes each year in her room. No more birthday greetings or gifts for her on every birthday of her parents. Only the chairman and the maid celebrate Ana's birthday in her room. Don't ask

about Lucas, he was completely immersed in his own world. Now he has a replacement for his late wife Mikaila whom he once loved.

Lucas is in touch with a beautiful woman he met at the disc. Lucas takes his new girlfriend to live with him at Evelyn's residence without Ana's consent. After the incident Ana entered her parents' room, she never again went out or saw her daddy

get into this room. Even when he was sick there were only the maid and maid chiefs taking care of him. Ana tries to stay strong to face the trials she feels, but without anyone knowing she always prays for death to come to her soon.

Ana looked at the chief maid who was carrying the textbook. Ana approaches her study table. The maid chief knew that Ana was always ready when she was already sitting at her study table to receive lessons from him. The chairman of the maid has been trying to make Ana stay afloat. She tried her best to help Ana master all things. Silent silent the chairman of the maid gave provisions to Ana so that she could survive when she had to get out of this house. The chairman of the maid feels there will come a time when Ana must live alone without her family. The chief maid knew what had happened to her master and her great mistress. His master is more tempramental and dictatorial. All this time the chief maid could still hide Ana's room from the demonic woman, yet this would not be able to hold out for long. He was sure the demonic woman would find Ana here.

"Can you do this?" ask the chief maid.

Ana nodded and grabbed the book that the chief maid was holding. A door slamming sound echoed. Ana stopped writing when she heard the voice. Ana looked at the woman who looked haughty looking at Ana. The woman approached Ana.

"Who is the chief maid? So this is what you've been hiding from me?" said the woman.

Ana tilted her head while looking at the woman she had just seen. Ana looked at the chief maid.

"This is Miss Anabella Curtina Evelyn, daughter of Mr Lucas Evelyn and Ms Mikaila Evelyn. This miss..."

Oh, so this is my step-son? How sad, this idiot kid has been living in this room all this time? What's ini?" ask Lucas' new girlfriend.

She holds the book on Ana's desk. Ana clasped the woman's hand. The woman drops Ana's book on the table. Ana pushed the woman and made the woman step back a few steps. The woman looked upset and wanted to attack Ana. The chief maid detained the woman

that's.

"Enough, Miss Clara, don't bother the young lady again. You won't be happy to see you bothering his beloved daughter. You better get out" said the chief maid.

The woman stared sinisterly at Ana. Roughly Clara left while slamming the door. Ana fell from her place. Tears flowed down his cheeks. His body shook violently when he found out his daddy who always said that he loved his mommy to the point of almost going crazy was right

removing his mommy from his daddy's life. Yes, Ana remembers her daddy always saying love words to her mommy. His dad said he wouldn't be able to live without his mommy. His dad said only

his mommy is in his heart, but Ana realizes that what her daddy says is just pseudo. Her daddy didn't really love her mommy. It was as easy as she had forgotten her mommy.

The next morning, Ana has a high fever. All the servants in the hard ban approached Ana's room. Clara asks Lucas to act hard on her daughter, whom she has been pampering.

"Have him come down and eat at this table with us" Lucas told the chairman.

"Master but .."

"Follow my orders!" snapped Lucas.

The maid chief could only silently watch Lucas change. The maid chief chose to follow the will of his master. Carefully the chief maid woke Ana up. Ana opened her eyes and looked at the chief maid. It was so heavy for his eyes to open. He tried to endure the pain

her head.

"I'm sorry, Miss, Mr. .. asked you to come down. He did not accept rejection" said the chairman of the maid.

As much as Ana's energy tried to rise. He refused the chief maid to remove him. Ana washes her face and walks out of her room. The chief maid knew that Ana was forcing her body. Slowly she

walked up to the dining table and was forced to see the woman sitting on her mommy bench first.
