[90] DEPTH.
The silence in the air was thick. The tension hung over Aracely's head like meat in a slaughter house, The thought that the door could barge open at any moment made her hands involuntarily shake. It wasn't fear though — more like that feeling you get when you know so much is at stake and one false move could ruin everything.
Aracely bit her lip as she wheeled towards the safe, she had been searching the room for the past fifteen minutes and she had found nothing — nothing as incriminating as she needed. The only things that were lying around were minor irregularities that could easily be over looked with the amount of power Tania had. Aracely wanted more, scratch that. She needed more.
The formerly Scarlett haired girl wracked her Marin trying to come IP with the right combination for the safe, as pathetic as it may seem, she had considered the idea if having to go through the safe as a last resort but as things stood — she didn't really

ARAMIDE 93 TEN YEARS AGO
Aramide paced about the waiting room. Her hands played with the hem of her tee-shirt, she felt nausea build up in her as her stomach churned, her hands shook a bit as she discretely begged her mind to not overthink. Even though it had been ten years already, the place still looked the same, Aramide wasn't sure if it was because they hadn't done many renovations or probably because she was so stuck with the memories of that day that she couldn't get the picture of the place out of her head, A few things were different though. For example, the receptionist wasn't sat wearing their hospital uniform, one that Aramide had painfully gotten used to seeing a few years ago.

Efrain for the past ten years that thought had haunted me, it constantly taunted me. The mere that thought... That someone out there, forced my daughter into silence or that she had to bear the weight of that reality broke me... I—” “Aramide listen," Efrain spoke softly as he took her hands into his, he traced his thumb on her cheeks and wiped away her tears. “that was ten years ago, this is now, you don't have to live with that regret anymore, cause now you know your daughter is alive, those people who tried to ruin your happiness... They failed Ara, your daughter is alive and you can ask her all of these questions when you find her" &nb

Adrian knelt beside her and he wiped her tear away from her cheek, He was about to speak when she continued “I don't deserve any of this. You deserve better” “You are right.” He whispered back as he looked into her eyes, confusion flashed through Aracely's eyes “I don't deserve you, you are just too amazing, you are strong, you are a fighter, I watch you and I can't help but feel that I am the luckiest person on earth, you are so pure, And I want to be the one who can love you as much you have once loved” He finished.
