A BEST FRIEND'S LOVE The sight before me was heart-wrenching and I had to control myself before I started crying. Cole told me to be strong for both of us and crying wasn't going to help.Bella had her leg bandaged and hanging up, she had a cervical collar around her neck and there was a tube connected to her mouth. I could see the bruise on her face. She was asleep and quiet, my Bella who is always happy and talking was asleep and I didn't know when she'd wake up." Bells," I whispered as I went to sit beside her on the bed." I'm here now, everything is going to be alright, you're going to wake up," I said as I placed my hand on her face, the face I've seen smile all the time, we've both had accidents but not like this, looking at her like this scares me." She'll be fine," Cole said as he came to stand beside me, placing his hands on me to comfort me." I think you should go home, and get some rest, you don't need to stay here with me," I told him as I placed my hand on his hand r
BUSTED" You know I'm not sick that you're pampering me like this," I said to Cole who was seated beside me as he tried to feed me. For the past two days, he has been bringing food specially cooked by him and he made sure I finished everything." You're not but you've been refusing to eat and I've said it several times, the last thing I want is for you to fall sick or lose weight," He said as he brought another spoonful of chicken soup and I didn't have any choice but to take it.A knock suddenly came on the door and Cole groaned as I chuckled because now that someone else would be in the room, he would have to act like my boss and not my boyfriend, a part he didn't like playing at all.Cole stood up as he went to open the door and Luke stepped in." Hey Luke," I greeted him with a smile as he walked towards me and then he sat on the couch beside me." Is there an improvement?" He asked and I shook my head.Bella hasn't moved even a finger and it was scaring me." It's okay, she'll be
THE STRANGE FEELING" Mom, what are you talking about?" I asked her as I turned to Bella so she doesn't see my face, my mom always had, should I say a superpower, because she'd look at your face and already know what you're thinking. It was scary sometimes." I'm your mother and you seem to forget I'm a very observant woman, I saw the way that man looked at you, and from what you told me, your company is a very renowned company, so which of the boss is he?" " He's my boss, like the CEO of our company," " Now can you tell me what a very busy CEO was doing in this room? When he could send someone in his stead I know he doesn't do this for all employees, so care to explain," " I'm his secretary mom, so if I don't come to work everyone would surely know and I'm closest to him than the other staff"" Let's say I believe you, explain why he was looking at you the way he did, I know when a man likes a woman, don't fool me, Anna, I know you're hiding something," Now I was trapped." I..I.."
YOU'RE MY GIRLFRIEND" Don't move, just start driving," He said as my eyes went to the door contemplating opening it and running out." Don't even think about it, I said just drive," He said and I started the car." Don't do anything funny, I swear you won't like what I'll do to you," " What's wrong with you Derick? Why are you doing this?" I asked as I kept driving, where did he even want me to go?" Where are we going? Where are you taking me?" I asked him." We're going home baby, where it's just you and me like old times, just you and me, drive to my house," He commanded and I found myself driving to his house." This is wrong, this is considered kidnapping Derick, you can't do this to me," I said as I took a turn, I saw a police car parked at the corner of the road and he saw it too, I contemplated stopping and screaming for help but I saw him bring out something shiny and my eyes went round in surprise." Didn't I tell you not to think of trying anything funny? You're my girlfr
HER CRAZY EXThe first thing I noticed as I walked out of the elevator was that Anna wasn't in the office, maybe she was running late. I called this morning and I wasn't getting any response from her. Worry kicked in but I pushed it down, what if something happened to her friend? She'll be here, maybe she's caught up in traffic, Anna wasn't the type of staff that comes to work late. I walked to my office hoping that she would be here soon.Thirty minutes later and I still haven't heard from her, normally she would have called but I haven't gotten any call from her either. Worry set in again, I couldn't go to the hospital because I knew people would start wondering who this guy was who was always coming to the hospital, also her mom was in the hospital and I didn't know if Anna already told her about our relationship, I knew Anna didn't want that. I just had to be patient and she'll come.But after two hours of working and there still wasn't any sign of Anna, there was no doubt that
TEN TIMES HOTTER" This is insane Derick, why would you do that?!" I asked as I demanded for my phone but he still wouldn't give me." What part of you're my girlfriend don't you understand? I'm not letting you out of this house, you're not going back to that man!" He said in anger." What man are you talking about?" I asked him even though I knew he was referring to Cole." Don't pretend you don't know who I'm talking about when he claims to be your boss but wants more from you," He said." I'm done doing this with you Derick, give me my phone, I'm getting out of this place," I said as I struggled to get the phone from him but he wrapped his hand around my neck and a gasp escaped my mouth in fear." I've tried to be nice but you're pushing me to the wall," In the real sense of the word he was the one pushing me to the wall." You're hurting me," I managed to squeeze out trying to pry his hands off my neck but he only tightened it." You don't seem to get me but you're mine you're min
BEAUTIFUL GRAY EYES" What are you doing here Anna? Go back inside," The stupid guy dared to say even with the police officers standing in front of him, this guy had lost his mind." No Derick, stop what you're doing, you need help, get help, seek a doctor because something is definitely wrong with you," Anna said as she walked out. I was fighting everything in me not to make a scene, especially with the mark Anna had on her neck like he tried choking her." No you're not going anywhere, you're my girlfriend, my girlfriend," He said as he went to grab Anna's hand but she quickly pulled away rushing to me and the officers blocked him." You're coming with us," They said as they grabbed him and handcuffed him." Why are you arresting me? I didn't do anything wrong, can't a man have a little quarrel with his girlfriend? What's wrong with you all?" He said as he struggled while Anna just shook her head before turning to me." It's taking everything in me right now not to punch that guy's
STRANGER" Oh my God, you're awake, you're awake hon," My mom said with tears in her eyes as she rushed to Bella's side." Thank God," My Dad breathed in relief, everyone was so worried about her. I was on the other side of the bed as I looked down at Bella. " Water," She whispered dryly and I quickly rushed to get her water." I'll call the doctor," Dad said as he opened the door and walked out to go get the doctor.Mom took the glass of water from me and she helped Bella drink, whispering to her to take it gently. After she drank as much as she could she laid down back on the bed as she looked at us with confusion in her eyes. I'm sure she was surprised she found herself here. " What am I doing here? Who are you people?" Mom and I slowly turned to look at each other in confusion, how terrible was the accident that she suddenly couldn't remember a thing?" What are you saying, Bella? We're your family, this is Mom and me Anna, your best friend slash sister." I said as I looked at h
