Destined To Be Yours Forever

[Prologue]

I lived a more comfortable life than average people, and a happy family composing of me and my siblings, my dad and my mom.

My Dad is a police officer and my mom is a doctor, and I am blessed to have them.

I have nothing to ask for because I know in myself that I am more than complete.

I have three older brothers, they're Matthew, Keizer and Iñigo.

Brother Matthew, a higher ranking military man. Brother Keizer, on the other hand, is a famous psychologist, and he is known in the world, the most sought after because of his unparalleled talent. The last one is Iñigo, also a military officer like Brother Matthew, and they were both serving in the Philippines, our home, and we are happy they could come back home every holidays- we are happy as a family.

I am the youngest and I want to follow my Dad's footsteps because he is a known and a good Police Chief in his station. Everybody loves and admires my Dad's intelligence.

Because of that, I also studied very hard to achieve my dreams to be a police female officer, following my dad's footsteps with my family's wholehearted support behind my back. As a child, my father taught me how to use a gun and shoot, the first time scared me as I was afraid I might missed a shoot and hurt someone.

But when I was a child I was diagnosed to have a heart disease. My parents do everything in their power to help me find a heart donor. Because of that, my family became very protective of me, to the point that I couldn't even go out on my own.

It's also not easy because just a simple mishaps will hurt and could take the life out of me. There were many rules I have to follow. It also became dangerous because my father, despite being good, upright and outstanding, would still aroused the jealousy and hate of others- and that gave him enemies, after his life every second. As his family, that also made us a vulnerable target.

My older brothers were busy with their jobs and all I could do was watch it all unfold, watch them come and go, as I was on my tender age of 10 at that time. Me and my brother inherited my father's blue eyes and it is one of the unique features we have. Brother Matthew have this electronic blue eyes and Brother Keizer, while Brother Iñigo and I have blue ocean eyes. And our beautiful mother have midnight sky eyes---so unique that my dad should have been captivated by that eyes, I bet.

I thought all of us would always be this happy but really in exchange for immense joy came the intense mourning and the unexpected event and what I feared fhe most was happening before my eyes.

"Eury, hide in the cabinet and don't--- no, never come out until I say so, okay?" My mom calmly told me, although she was obviously in a hurry.

"Why Mommy?" I innocently asked her as I was looking at her.

"Just listen to Mommy, okay? Don't come out until I tell you." Mom said hugging me tightly.

"Remember that we love you so much and we're doing this for you." Mom's voice had that unhinted feeling of saying goodbye. But at that time, I didn't notice anything.

Her eyes were moist with tears so I clumsily tried to dry them with my hands.

"Mommy, don't cry okay?" I smiled at her, using my tiny little hands to touch her moist cheeks. "I will listen to mommy." I added so she smiled sweetly at me despite the tears brewing in the rims of her eyes.

Suddenly, we heard shouting and gunshots echoing in our villa, so mom had to quickly put me in the cabinet and locked it.

I covered my ears as the series of gunshots bellowed, as my tears finally fell frantically when I realized they could hurt my mom. I also have difficulty breathing here in the cabinet.

"Where's your daughter huh?" Was the first coherent words after the overwhelming noise around- that I heard.

"She's not with me and even if she is, I won't let you touch my daughter!" That was Dad's voice.

Seeing a hole in the cabinet, I tried my best to look through it, while covering my mouth so I wouldn't make any noise with tears gushing out from my eyes.

Mom suddenly blocked my vision, turning her back against me, protecting me from them, and Dad was in the front talking to the unknown people who barge in our house.

"Take her out if you don't want me to kill you all!" The man shouted, using his gun to intimidate my parents.

It was dark but there was enough light coming from the window- I was so scared, and I was having trouble breathing as well. I tried to stopped the sob coming out from my mouth. I looked at Mommy who was looking in my direction, but she just turned around at me, so I sobbed even more and covered my mouth when I heard a loud and deafening gunshot.

Then I heard a loud and heavy thud.

I saw my parents lying on the floor blood pooled around them.

Mommy is looking at my direction, and she smiled at me while my Daddy is hugging her like he's protecting her, even with the last ounce of his last strength.

My Mommy smiled and mouthed the words 'we love you' in my direction.

"Mommy... Daddy," I cried, covering my mouth.

When I could no longer hear anything I slowly went out. I fought my way out of the cabinet, thankfully it could be opened from the inside.

My knees were shaking as the lights were out, and I was afraid of the dark, so I cried and hugged my unmoving parents who had been shot for a couple of times in their body.

"Mommy! Daddy!" I didn't held back the pain and the shout in my voice anymore as I hugged them both.

"Mom... Dad... please wake up!" I cried and trying to feel the warmth in their hands but they were already cold.

I looked at them and clenched my knuckles with the sudden anger rushing in my veins.

"Dad... Mom.. Wait for me, I will call for help and I will look for the people who made this to the both of you and made them pay," I said seriously while crying.

"I will put them in the bars by myself .." I added and kissed them both on the forehead and went to the door to leave.

I cried and couldn't really breathe but I tried to get up to get out of the villa to call for help.

In front of me isa vast forest I had to crossed to finally see the road, my young mind knew I have to hurry.

My knees were shaking as I came out and I couldn't breathe. I was walking in the forest but everything was so dark, and I was scared.

I felt like I was going crazy as I held my chest- feeling an excruciating pain suddenly throbbing. My heart is weakening, because of the trauma and stress

I screamed as I fell and rolled over the grass but my head hit a large chunk of rock causing me to lose consciousness.

If I could, I want to live longer so that I can avenge my parents death.

I want to live.
