"Ace" from the future—year 2022

"What is the meaning of this? Why are our sales this year much lower than the previous year? Ace! If this happens again next year, I will definitely switch your position to your brother. I learned that he managed to increase the income from the beach that I assigned to him. To think that it's almost bankrupt. I guess your brother is much smarter than you, don't you think? "

I gritted my teeth. Erox again! He is very smart, very excellent at everything, good and talented! I was born first, so that's why my father gave me the privilege of being the next alpha. I'm so annoyed to hear that over and over again for all these years. He has always been number one. To think that Erox did not even try harder, unlike me,

"Are you listening, Ace?"

"Yes, father, I will do my best." My father stormed across the room after it. Leaving me frustrated, maybe this is the right time to vanquish my brother. So many fathers would stop comparing us.

I called someone that I knew that would surely help me to get rid of that brother of mine. I would never allow him to replace me as an alpha. I'm the legal son while Erox was the only bastard son of a bitch!

Beta Erox, from the future-year 2015

When I woke up, the first thing I did was go to the mirror, and then I slapped my face. I'm back to my younger self. I checked the date. It was still November 10, 2015. I think the last time I saw it was November 8. What is happening? Did I jump 2 days after that day? Can I close my eyes? Yet I smiled. Whatever it is, I will do whatever it takes to make everything perfect. So I grabbed my favourite guitar.

When I got out, I realised that I was here at my grandmother's place. It was a small province. I loved it here because Margaret lived not far away. She only went to the city because she was always applying for modelling jobs, as I recall.

I grab some chocolate cake from the refrigerator because I remember that this is Margaret's favourite. I walked outside, but someone jumped on my back. When I look at the girl, I almost slap my forehead. It was my annoying childhood friend, Misy.

I forgot about her. She was the granddaughter of my grandma’s friend. That's why we grew up knowing each other. When we were kids, everything was alright until she confessed she liked me so much that every time I came here I always hid so she wouldn't see me. I always go to my favourite hill. It was located at the end of our land, and I was using my favourite horse to get there. Misy cannot go there because this girl really hates that place . It's muddy and she always protests because her heels can make it there.

I don't like her because of that. She is so picky and stagy. But, strangely, Margaret was also like that, but I still like her... Okay, let me rephrase that. I love her, not just like her. It's love.

Well, maybe the difference is that Margaret never showed that she had an interest in me while Misy was always running after me. At first, I thought that I was only attracted to Margaret because she challenged me.

But I guess it's not because I realised lately that I see my future with Margaret, together with our beautiful daughter and son.

"Misy, I'm busy. I need to do something. If you go down, I will drop you into the mud . Do you like that? "

After I said that, Missy instantly jumped down and then rolled in front of me, saying

"You're so mean!" I shook my head.

"You know that I am meaner than that, Missy, so don't mess with me."

After that, I went to the horse barn until I could get my favourite horse so we could go to my favourite hill.

Margaret "from the future"-year 2022

There is something different from Erox. He's never been this way in all the years I've known him.He's not acting maturely when he's teasing like this. He's always funny and does some crazy things, but he never did anything like this. And when I hit his chest, why do I feel like it's harder than before?

I'm used to pushing him every time because he really likes being close to me, so that's why I know the difference. Wait, did I see him doing some exercise more lately? Because I don't really remember.

We reached my house. Ismael helped to clean Erox's wound. The good thing is that it was only small. But even though it is small, I know it still hurts, but as I can see from his face, he isn't in pain.

He's already used to it since he was a guard, right? His work is kind of dangerous, and because of that, I know that this is not the first time that his enemy has hit him.

I walk through my room and then lay down on my bed so I can go back to sleep.

(Princess Margaret "from the past year 2015)

I woke up in an unfamiliar room. I stand up immediately to look for Alice, but she's nowhere to be found. I step out of the room and then the first thing I see is the staircase . The place is quite old but still beautiful, although it's a bit smaller.

"Oh, our senorita was already up. Can you buy some breakfast for us?"

That was what a girl asked me. I didn't know who she was. Her hair was long and curly, her eyes were brown and a bit chubby, and the way she commands me, as if I am her servant I walked through her and said,

"Why should I do that? You don't know how to do it on your own? "

The girl's eyes opened wide in shock as if this was the first time that I talked to her like that.

Mom! Dad! Margaret was not listening to me! "

After the girl shouted, a woman and a man walked out of the other room and then looked at me.

"What exactly did you say, Cristy?"

The woman asked. "Mom Margaret doesn't want to buy breakfast; she's even talking to me like she was the owner of this house!"

That was the girl's name, Cristy. and the same face as her, though a bit older, was her mom? When I look at her mom, I suddenly get terrified because the way she looks at me I feel that she wants to hit me. I stepped backwards because of that.

"Your ungrateful bitch How could you? This house It's not yours. Have you forgotten that we just took care of you when your parents died? And you have to pay for what we did to you! "

The girl shouted, and her finger hit my head while she pointed it.

"Now go! Listen to your cousin! Buy food! "

I close my eyes. Maybe this is what Alice meant, about what kind of family her best friend was. She'd been disgusted for all of her life, and now that we changed positions, I need to bear with it, but the problem is, where could I buy food? I don't know where this place is.
