RYAN'S POV.

I was revived, I felt alive. I didn't know where the new strength came from, but it was in me and I could feel it.

I looked around me and all I could smell was the familiar fragrance of her hair.

That mango smell that gets me mesmerized.

And I spoke to her.

I had lost my voice when I needed it the most, but there is no better time to regain my voice than after such an exercise.

A heart to heart exercise.

I sat up and tried to get dressed.

This is still my father inlaw's house after all and I need to accord him that respect, but her melodious voice stopped me on my track.

"I thought you were sleeping? It came out almost like a whisper.

"I wanted to sleep, but I was too scared that I will wake up to realize that I had dreamt it all. I didn't want to take that risk, so I decided to keep my eyes opened, so that, even if it turns out to be a dream, I will stay in my dream wise awake, never sleeping, never waking". It was funny, but the truth was, that was exactly how I had fel

  • sexual healing

    Alexander's POV.I didn't like the distraction.I have longed for the day I would have him in my arms like I had him a few moments ago.I was glad in a way that we are not in the hospital, at least, I could see him at will, but for now, I needed every one gone, I want to have alone time with him.He had sent shivers down my spine. He has awaken what I thought was long dead.He has brought happiness back to my life, and what I never thought I could feel, is once again made alive for me to feel them.I fantasize on the way he folded my hands. It felt like he wanted to lose himself inside me.It felt like he wanted to pass a message to me, Though he looked pale, his arms held me down strongly.I touched my lips as I picture them once again against mine.I smiles, because he had kissed me hungrily. We are both hungry for each other and I cannot wait to be alone with him, just the two of us, so we could encounter each other once again.It's been so long.In as much as I wish he would o

  • Do you want me?

    I feel free, so free, because everything that seem to be holding me down have been removed from me.Alexander was staring at me, I also didn't want to look away for fear that she might not be there, when I look her way again."You are finally awake, but you are just staring, you don't want to say anything to me, what is the problem? I opened my mouth to answer her, but no words came out.I was confused.What was going on?She noticed my difficulties and she smiles weakly."You don't have to say anything yet, I understand". I tried severally to speak, but it wasn't working, so I sadly shut my mouth and decided to respond to her through gesture.I could tell she was worried. The way she was looking at me, the times she would say something, and expect me to answer but I could only gesture.I noticed she was hiding her tears from me. She later left the room even though I was fully awake, she returned with water in hand.She gave me and I drank to my fill.She asked me questions which I c

  • My reality

    I guess the pills were forced to wear off sooner than supposed, when Alexander cried out.Oh, how I hate to hear her cry and being unable to console her.I wonder why she was crying.Am I dead?Why do I feel strange?I wanted to move my body.I wanted to understand what was happening, but I just couldn't.It was as though I was already sinking.What was happening to me.I was trying hard. Really hard to hold my breath, yet I couldn't.I just cannot explain the way I was feeling, but I was having serious difficulty, understanding my environment.I could still hear her voice. I know I feel weird, but why is she crying.I decided to keep calm and hear her speak."Why is he not breathing? I heard her heartbreaking voice, loud and clear."He will snap out of it soon, it is an effect of the pills he just took". The nurse responded, but I was already out, she should notice that I am already back from the effect of the pills."I don't like this pills given to him at all. I am really scared"

  • She will always be there.

    Ryan's POV.I could hear her cries, they pierce my soul, but I just couldn't do anything. I wanted to tell her to stop crying, but I don't even know how to move my hands. Then just like she read my mind, she placed my hands on her head and I could feel her hair. I have missed those hair.She knows I used to talk about her hair so much and now she was doing me the honour of feeling it.Just feeling her sleep close to me, hearing her snore calmly beside me, helped my heart race faster and my breathing normalized. I could feel it too.I knew she would be happy, if she heard me breath loudly, so I tried to use my breath to wake her up, and then it did.I was so happy, I wanted to calm her name, but I feel so paralyzed. The only thing I feel is that my brain and hear was very much at alert.Herr fears were evident in the way she held me, but hearing me breath loudly on my own, her fears seem to have been erased.She even came to me and touched me again.I know her with her investigative sk

  • New hope

    Alexander's POV continues.Initially I thought it was my breath, but when I stopped breathing for a few seconds, I could still hear it.I didn't believe miracles could happen immediately, so I didn't think it could be Ryan.I turned to look around me, thinking Emily must have grown tired of waiting for me, and have decided to come into the room and be with us, but looking around, I couldn't find her, yet the loud breath persisted. I decided to stop doubting and just believe that it really could be happening, so I looked towards his direction.At that moment, it felt like the loud breath suddenly seized.I looked closely, then place my nose close to him, even with the oxygen on him, his breath was loud enough for anyone in the room to hear.I removed the oxygen carefully to confirm that the sound isn't justy imagination an what I want to hear, and when I removed it, the sound became louder. I held his hand in mine, and I noticed, they are not as cold as they had been the previous day.
