31 I came back to pursue both love and career 1

SAINT GROUP.

Mai paid the driver and got down from the cab and walked towards the entrance. A Maserati car suddenly pulled over in front of her almost knocking her down.

Mai stepped back quickly and looked at the car with a shocked expression. Josh Saint got down from the car and walked to Mai and spoke.

"Sorry, did I give you a scare, beautiful?"

Mai looked at him unbelievably and retorted "a scare? You almost ran me over with that car".

Josh Saint smiled and looked at Mai from head to toe as he spoke "seeing you outside, you look quite pretty". Mai recognised him and replied sarcastically.

"Seeing you outside, you look better in enclosed places.".

"Feisty, just the way I want my women. What do you say? Come to me and I will give you everything you want" Josh Saint smirked as he sized Mai up.

"Did you stop to tell me this?" Mai asked impatiently.

"Yes, I just finished a business meeting at the café across the road there when I saw you getting down from a taxi. I decided to pay you a visit. Since the last time, I didn't see you again" Josh Saint Saint said.

"I see. I'm very busy right now, I will leave first"

Josh Saint stopped Mai with his hand.

"Do you really not remember who I am? August Maijune?" Mai's eyebrows furrowed a bit and she looked at him.

Josh Saint walked closer to Mai and whispered in her ears "Is such a shame, that you don't remember or know who I really am, little Miss. I'm bored by the fact that you can't remember me, Maijune".

Mai became alarmed and stepped back and almost tripped. Josh Saint held her waist stopping her from falling and Mai felt a rather strange yet familiar feeling and pushed him away.

She stepped back and felt a strange headache taking over her. Mai touched her head and bent down. Josh Saint Saint walked closer to her and asked

"hey, are you alright?' Mai's eyes changed to a shade of brown and her headache disappeared suddenly. Josh Saint tried to touch her and she pushed him away and spoke.

''Who are you and what are you trying to do?"

Josh Saint looked at her suspiciously and asked "me? You don't know who I am? I am Josh Saint, Aaron's cousin. We met last weekend at the family mansion"

"Family mansion? Why can't I remember that?" August Maijune said and frowned as she looked at herself.

She looked at her surrounding and murmured "what am I doing here?"

Josh Saint looked at her and noticed her eyes colour. Just then Aaron's call came in and August picked up "hello, Aaron".

Aaron Saint noticed the change in the way she mentioned his name and spoke.

'Where are you, bring the pen-drive fast, I need it urgently".

"Pen-drive? Oh, I'm at the entrance, I'm coming in".

August Maijune looked at Josh Saint and walked away. Josh Saint looked at her confused and shook his head.

PRESIDENT'S OFFICE.

Morris led August Maijune into the office and went back. Aaron Saint got up from his desk and spoke as August Maijune walked closer "Mai, what's wrong?" August Maijune removed the pen-drive from her bag and handed it to him saying "is me, August".

"Huh? August? Are you really August?"

August Maijune nodded her head and Aaron Saint pulled her closer and hugged her saying "oh my God, August, do you have any idea how long is being?"

August Maijune smiled awkwardly and went to sit on the couch.

"What happened to me, Aaron Saint? I met a man outside and he claimed to be your cousin".

"You met Josh Saint?"

"Yes, he is very rude. He was going on about how we met at the family mansion. Did you take me to meet your family?"

"Yes, that was Mai"

"Mai?".

''Your other personality. August, did you know you have DID?''

"Yes, I do but I guess I forget because of the accident. If you met Mai then, you must have met Maijune too, right?"

"Yes, I did". Aaron Saint sat across her as they talked.

"I'm sorry, did I surprised you too much?'' August Maijune asked apologetically.

"I pulled through. How do you feel? How did you come out?" Aaron Saint asked and touched her face.

"I'm fine, that man outside, he felt oddly familiar. How do I put it? I think I know him somehow?" August Maijune said.

"Maijune knows him. She wanted to kill him".

"Maijune? I guess he is hidden in the memory I can't recover then. Wow, what's today's date?"

"Today is April 15th"

"Then, I've being gone for two months?"

"Yes". August Maijune smiled and suddenly sat up looking at Aaron's face making him blush. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Don't distract me. How long was it since I last saw this face? I really missed seeing this face. You've become even sexier, Aaron Saint".

Aaron Saint turned away and walked to his desk saying "I see, no doubts is you, August Maijune. Seeing how you're flirting with me, I have no doubts now". August Maijune smiled and walked to stand by the table and spoke.

"I hope you didn't cheat on me while I was gone, Aaron Saint?"

"What? Cheat on you?" Aaron Saint chuckled and looked at her.

"Yes, tell me the truth. If there is another woman, you better break up with them because I won't accept it". August Maijune said and leaned closer to sniff him.

"Go back and sit, I need to work" Aaron Saint looked at her loosed wrapper blouse that made her fair cleavage exposed when she leaned closer and pushed her away.

"Go ahead and work. I will just sit quietly and admire you. You have no idea how I missed you, Aaron Saint". August Maijune said.

"Get lost" Aaron Saint said and August Maijune laughed before she went to sit back on the couch.

Once a while Aaron Saint would look up and catch her watching him and shook his head.

August Maijune watched Aaron Saint the rest of the working time till he finally couldn't take it and decided to close from work and send her home.

EDEN ESTATES

SAINT VILLA.

AUGUST'S LIBRARY.

It was way past midnight and the library's light was still on. August Maijune was totally engrossed in the book in her hand to notice the presence of Aaron Saint at the door. She kept smiling to herself as she immersed herself into the book.

Aaron Saint watched her as she read the book in her hand without a care in the world.

He woke up to an empty space by him and it dawned on him that the person present now was not Mai but August Maijune

Although August Maijune was the queen of perverts, she had never slept in his room before, but Mai though being the conservative one managed to share the same bed with him.

Honestly, Aaron Saint was also in deep thoughts as he reminisced on the days Mai would sneak into his bed and cuddled with him to sleep. He was getting confused. He missed Mai, he missed Maijune and he missed August Maijune.

Now, August Maijune was back, but Mai and Maijune were gone. They were the same person but because of their different personalities, he felt like he was caught in the middle.

Truth be told, he was scared. He was scared of how these three persons in one made him feel so many emotions.

He felt like he was being dragged to hell by this girl who had DID and the funny thing was he didn't mind being sent to hell as long as she was there with him.

Aaron Saint was so deep into his thoughts that he didn't notice that August had long closed her comic book and was now standing in front of him.

August Maijune looked at him. She knew he was confused about her but she didn't care. She had long accepted the fact that she wasn't a normal girl. Though she couldn't remember, there were still fragments of her life that she quite remembered. Her life with her parents, she remembered those memories very well but after her parents got into an accident everything changed and she didn't remember anything anymore.

August Maijune was well aware of her DID but as to how it came to that moment. If only she could remember everything, she would be able to solve the mysteries surrounding her.

Casting her DID thoughts aside, she decided to admire the beautiful man in front of her while she still could. August Maijune raised her hand and started tracing the shadow of Aaron Saint on the wall.

Aaron Saint's eyes flickered as she turned and he grabbed her hand saying hazily "August Maijune, if you succeed in dragging me to hell, know one thing, you will be there with me all the way through".

August Maijune was caught off guard and turned to look at him but he quickly turned away going back to his room.

August Maijune watched him enter his room and she murmured to herself "I'm sorry Aaron Saint for dragging you to hell with me".
