They took her out of the house and boarded a taxi, getting to the hospital some nurses came with a stretcher and they placed her on it “please sis don't die on me, you are the only one I got apart from Dante.”Kate whimpers They took Debbie to the E.R, while Kate and Zara stayed outside pacing to and fro. The doctor was called in and after a while he came out. “ ma'am is my sister okay?” Kate spoke up. “Please you both should come to my office” Doctor Susan said and left for her office with Kate and Zara following suit. They got in and the doctor ushered them to sit. “Your sister, she is out of danger you were lucky to have gotten her here on time, she had an episode but this seems worse what happened?” Doctor Susan asked facing the girls. “I don't know doctor,I just woke up to see her shaking on the bed” Zara sniffed. “If you can remember something similar occurred during the time her parents died, did she receive any news of someone's death?”doctor Susan asked. Then Zara and Kate eyes widened at the realization that they had shown Debbie a picture of Mr Jefferson death. “Yes doctor someone died yesterday but not a relative of some sort”kate replied. “Okay, it advisable you keep her from such news as it triggers her. As it is she still can't remember what happened to her years ago.What about her paintings? Does she still draw?” The doctor further asked. “Yes she does” Kate answered. That's the only thing that keeps her mind balanced and at peace, she's fine now you can take her home” doctor Susan smiled warmly. “Alright doctor thank you” both girls said and left the office. Kate and Zara got to Debbie ward, going in to see that she was awake.”what happened? Why am I in the hospital?” Debbie asked softly and they ran to hug her. “Geez take it easy,you guys wanna take the last strength I have got” she joked. And they let go of her. “You scared us to death Debs” Zara sighed. “But am fiine now,am sorry” Debbie pouted and got up “now can we please leave,this place stinks alot” she covered her nose. They chuckled,all three left the hospital but Zara had to go back to her house. Kate and Debbie got home, “Kate can you please prepare something that we could eat,am starving” Debbie said crashing on the chair. “Alright” Kate said simply. Breakfast seemed awkwardly silent till “ sis don't you think it's high time we reach out to Dante?” Kate asked. “we haven't heard from him since we started doing things on our own” she added. Debbie sighs “ he drifted from us Kate he doesn't want anything to do with us, Zara mentioned something about him working for the Tyson clothing company” Debbie answered. “I know but he is still our elder brother, can't we go see him?” Kate asked. “Alright I will think about it” Debbie replied and Kate was excited. “Sis a fresh semester is about to begin in my school,I would resume classes next week” “ Awwn my baby is now an adult, so u won't be with me all day anymore” Debbie pouted C'mon sis am not leaving the house, I would only be out for few hours for lectures and we could spend the evening chatting” Kate chuckles “Doesn't matter anyway,am off to my room to paint”Debbie's emerald eyes glistens and she enters her room without waiting for a reply. TORONTO, CANADA Alex seems busy on his phone when Jace walks in.“Boss I just spoke to the pilot,he said we could leave for los Angeles this evening” Jace said and Alex looks up. “Jace you don't have to be formal with me,I have told you that countless times we aren't in the office” Alex said tiredly. Jace chuckles “Alright alex,so you should get ready and I would get your drugs we need that on the jet and when we get home we don't want any outsider finding out you are a psychotic patient” Jace said. “And you have a lot of rivals in the fashion world,they could use that to their advantage” he added. Alex just sat down with utmost composure “I know that you don't have to say it,they wouldn't dare go against me, everyone is threatened by the power I hold” Alex black orbs darkened and he stood “Get some cleaners to the penthouse, I would be staying there and I don't need crowd we would go see my mom and siblings before the week ends” Alex added shifting his gaze to the window and Jace nodded and left the room. Alex got ready taking all of his important documents into his suitcase and left the room, he's been staying in one of his many islands in Toronto. Stepping outside the compound to meet Jace standing by the car,they got in and left to the airport. “This is going to be a long flight,did you get my drugs?”Alex asked Jace as they settled in. “Yup and the penthouse is ready” Jace replied.The jet took off and landed in one of the airport in los Angeles L.A. LOS ANGELES, USA Alex alighted the jet taking in a deep breath putting on a black shades,black buttoned up sleeve shirt and black pant looking sinfully hot!.

A frown appeared on Alex face “ what the fuck!” he growled.

“Who's there?” Debbie asked getting all sweaty,she couldn't help but be drawn to the voice. She moved closer to see a manly figure shaking.

Nothing happened to you, the doctor said you were in shock. Could you recognize anyone of ‘em ?” She asked.“ No, it was dark” she sniffed, “ it doesn't matter anyway, I'm just glad you're fine” she pulled Kate closer to her chest.“ Whose room is this?” Her eyes scanned the dark theme.“ It's Candice's room” Camile responded, “ He took you out of there just in time” She breathed out, her thoughts reeled on what would've happened if Candice didn't go back in.Kate sighed “ Why does he do it? He saves me and the next minute he acts like I disgust him, I don't understand” she muttered to herself.“ What did you say?” Camile looked down at her, their bodies entangled, “ I should thank him, he has been my knight in a

Debbie has her legs folded to her chest with her hands wrapped around her, she rocks herself back and forth, staring into space.Just when she thought, everything was right and in place, the one thing that made her feel sane and normal, was caught on fire. She sighs tiredly allowing her tears flow freely down her cheeks, every hardwork thrown into the mud, she might as well slit her wrist this very fûcking minute.She leans on her couch, glancing at every object in her small home, recalling how she started, from a scared little girl with the responsibilities of a parent. At that time, She only knew doctor Susan and she was familiar with rare cases like hers, she offered Debbie the best care and support while every other individual saw her as a burden. Being such a stubborn child, she didn't give in easily, she relapsed several times, went into the emergency room like a daily routine just to be revived, even therapy until the sudden revelation of paintings.She could be in a room for

Grumpily she walks up to the door and unlocks it, the sudden force startling her “ Can't I get some sle..” her remaining words got stuck in her mouth. “ How'd you guys get here?” She asked, staring shockingly at Kate and Zara as they look at the room in admiration. Kate glares at her but ends up shrieking in excitement. ‘ overly dramatic’ Debbie thought inwardly whilst shaking her head. “ Seriously, Is that how you welcome us?” Zara asked, raising an eyebrow at her. “ Gosh sis, you didn't feel the need to tell me you and Mr Alex were a thing?” Kate pouts, “ I've been drooling the minute I saw the front gate, you're cat walking in a lot of money here.

Alex is seated in his office. It has just been for emergency, In cases whereby he can't go to the company. He just do all of his paperwork in this office right in the penthouse. The black blinds shifted at each corner as he looks through the windows and onto the busy road of L.A ( Los Angeles).He sighs deeply, not from all the hooting, but the clock ticking and yet no news of Debbie's awake.Jace who has been quiet and observant at Alex's straight face for almost an hour “ She's going to be okay.

Kate, where did Debbie run off to?” Zara asked, staring at the wide open door.“ I've no idea, but she didn't look happy at all” Kate glanced at the same direction.“ Yeah, she looked frightened we should go find her now” Zara said hastly grabbing an extra coat for Debbie as they moved out of the house.“ Please, just answer” Debbie pleads, her eyes brimming with tears as she glance at her phone. “Dammit!” She voiced out in frustration, still no response.She walks down the street barefooted and shaking visibly from all the chilly winds coming her way, she cursed recalling how she left with just her nighties.

“ What's wrong kate?” Candice asked, sensing the distress in her voice. He moves to the edge of the bed flipping the switch on just by the bedstand.She got pissed upon seeing Candice, lifting herself off the bed “ You fuckin prick!” She roared, if eyes could kill Candice memorial service could have be held at this very moment. “ Can't you just stay away from me, you're just so shameless. Yet you accuse me of being a slut when you're a man whore!” She raises her voice.“ I'll not be insulted by someone who walked into my room willingly.

But he has never taken advantage of their advances.“ Your room, but Camile said the room was empty” she said lowly.“ You walked into the wrong room dammit, so it's
