"You need to go home and freshen up", Alexander managed to whisper, her voice barely audible before fatigue pulled her back into a deep sleep. Ryan's heart aches with Concern; he couldn't beat to leave her side. He stayed, watching her breathe, hoping she would wake up. Though he didn't want to disturb her, he still finds himself kissing her, hoping his kiss will wake her up.

Hours passed and night fell. The dim hospital lights cast a soft glow over the room, highlighting the serene expression on Alexander's face.

When the nurse came in to ask him to leave, she found them entwined sharing the narrow hospital bed. Alexander seemed to find peace in his presence, her body relaxing against his.

The nurse couldn't bring herself to disturb the scene and left quietly, allowing them this stolen moment.

Annie finished her late shift, and rushed to the hospital to check on her friend. She needs to see how she is fairing. She haven't visited since the last time she lunged at Ryan in front of

  • Finger flickering her

    Now that everything was in place, all we needed to do was just to wait for him to say things and we could hear him.Annie was not in the same room with us, but she could hear everything the same way we could.She was the one that brought the idea, so she needed to be in the deal, in case we might have a reason to dig further.She would know what to do, since she is the master planner.My heart kept racing fast as if we had done something bad.Listening to Damien Brick himself seem like a serious crime against the law. It feels like a crime against the government. A crime that when discovered, no one would see it as helping him, everyone would blame us for invading his privacy.It is his privacy after all, and it is bad to listen to him, but we cannot wait for him to come out and tell us what is troubling him.Every where was quiet for a long while. I didn't remove my earpiece, but I decided to pay attention to something else."You are healing fast". Alexander tells me and I nodded."

  • perfect plan

    Alexander have resumes work, but still found nothing. She told me she needed to involve Annie, and though she just got married and needed to enjoy her marriage, Alexander couldn't help but get her friend involved.Annie could t say no to such hist. She always sees everything as a chance to show her investigative skills. She hopped on it and asked what she needed to do.Since Damien have strictly warned that I should stay away from the company, I want to work from the outside, he wouldn't even know.But time seem to be running out, yet we have nothing to hold on to.As soon as Annie joined the plan, she asked us how far we have gone, and we told her. She nodded encouragingly at us, but then she came up with some very kind blowing plans. She asked us to bug Damien's office and his room. She says we need to listen to his conversations and if we claim he cries in his room, he must be saying something while crying. Whatever he says, we cannot ignore. From what he says, is where we can get

  • It is a perfect plan

    I didn't know what to say, when he asked me that single question.His voice held such authority that I didn't recognize the man in front of me anymore. And how did he know that I went to the office.Stanley was right. He didn't have to tell the boss, all those persons watching would have told him.To me, it seem something else was going on, there are people, who probably didn't want him to manage whatever situation he was in very well, they want to see him run into debt and probably die in it, they are using him against himself and he seem not to understand nor see the signs."It is my father inlaw's company and for some time, I cannot help but notice that he hasn't been going there the way he used to, and so I guess I am supposed to take the lead and visit the place". My response, didn't sit well with him, he gave me a deadly stare.That stare also didn't look like him.If he was going through stuff, he should be able to open up, but I don't think what Stanley said is what is wrong w

  • "I will be back".

    Ryan's POV continues.I was already feeling better.It's been months since I started living in the Damien's mansion and have been attended to by specialist, yet Damien doesn't think I am fit enough.They are treating me like a baby which is becoming really annoying.I have heard Damien on call, on several occasions complaining about business break down and his response had been that he doesn't care if he is no longer the number one in the business line, that he wants to focus on his family.Meanwhile, he is only focusing on me. He wants to make sure I feed well, I have my bath on time and everything that is needed to be done.I don't even have enough time to spend with Alexander, as he is always with me.Not like there is a problem with that, but I need to help him too.So once they all left the house, the kids had gone to school and Alexander was out shopping, I sneaked out of the house and went to the Damien Enterprise.I needed to understand what was going on.I met with Stanley.

  • Renewed strength

    Ryan's POV.Few weeks after my confrontation with my father in-law, I started to see him differently.For him to have apologized openly to me, with his staff around and his entire family, I know he is sorry.He made a decision out of anger and my father lost hope, for him to have committed suicide.I don't blame him much, anyone would have reacted in his shoes.I only blame myself.I wish I had spoken you earlier.There are so many things I could have prevented if I had spoken you earlier.Incidents like the one that almost claimed the life of Alexander and my daughter.What if help didn't come?What if Emily didn't keep her phone and they were able to use it to call out?What if they had died?I would have killed myself along side, as I won't be able to stay.I have come to realize that, hurting someone with the truth is better than romancing them with lies.Watching her now, makes me regret all the times I wasted.Times that would have been golden, if I had opened up early enough.D

  • The taste of tears

    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
