“Shh…I know you love me more.” Erickson said like he read her mind. Celine shrugged with a frown. “Will you stop making this weird?”

Erickson grabs her arm tightly. He moved closer to her and his eyes met hers. With a smirk, he leaned closer. Celine jolts, she tried to walk away but his tight grip on her arm stopped her.

Erickson was only making things hard for her, he was trying to confess his feelings but since Celine wasn't willing to listen to his confessions, he thought he had to force it on her.

His grip on her arm becomes tighter and he didn't notice the pain he's inflicting on her. “I love you too” Celine confessed with tears streaming down her chin. She thought she could hide those feelings but not anymore.

Her heart ceased for a second, she wanted to run away from her feelings and then Erickson embraced her from behind.

He let go of her arm with a grin, finally fulfilling his wish. “Let's run away!” Erickson confessed with tears dropping from his eyes.

It might be too late when they arrive.” Tue doctor explained.“I can't lose my son. No! I just can't!” he lamented holding his head, tears flowing from his eyes as he stares at the doctor.“Aren't you his father?” The doctor questioned. “I am!” Henry said almost screaming.

    The noise of cars hooting made everyone terrified of reaching the lifeless body on the busy road. There was distant murmuring, all vehicles sped by to avoid getting into trouble.No one stopped by to help except for a white Mercedes Benz that halted before Bianca. A young gentleman alights from the back seat of the white vehicle, he has a long white and black dyed beard, his black short and silky hair was padded with a band and he was on makeup that suits his skin color perfectly. He was on his way to his office just like every responsible adult.“Who would do this to a poor lady? After knocking her down, what will it take to admit her to the hospital? Can they be so inhuman?” He muttered to himself as he puts out his hands from his pocket. He walked up to her and checked her pulse, temperature, and heart beating rate which was very slow, he nods positively signaling to his driver that she was still alive. The driver helped carry her into the vehicle and drove off.They arrived at Ro

    “You are aware that I'm not after David's pay, you dumb ass. Where are the documents?” Oscar forced air violently through the nose with a rough harsh sound as he let out with bare teeth, he lifts his disgruntled face to Henry. “Ah ah, so that's what this is about?” Henry chuckles. “Will you stop beating around the bush?” Oscar questioned as he sat on a cushioned chair, fixing his gaze on Henry's smiling face. “Why should I give you something that's not yours? Before our leader, Mr. Chu the first in command died, he transferred all his riches to me which makes me a millionaire with just a document.” Henry explained with the corners of his mouth turned up and the front teeth exposed. “Why would he give the documents to the third in command when I, the second in command still in existence? Why?” Oscar questions as he stood up, pacing back and forth. “Why would he give me his property documents a few minutes before his death? Remember he died in your office. There is something fishy a

    “Hostages? Was I abducted?” Bianca questioned as she stopped applying medicines to the man's injuries.The man nods his head in approval “Yes.” Bianca nods in disbelief.“Did he do this to you?” Bianca asked, looking at the bruises and black spots on the man's pale white face. She lets go of the first aid box with fright as flashes of David fiddle in her head. A tear trickled on her chin, she quickly wiped it off.

    Bianca quickly slopes her head on her shoulder, pretending to be feeble like a vegetable.“Strange” Henry uttered as he stares at her, he frowns doubting his visions. He raised her head upright with both hands as he smiled at her.“Do you remember the day you beat me up? Gosh! I was defeated by a beautiful feeble damsel.” Henry chuckles as he slams his palm on his forehead.“You were so fortunate Oscar didn't find you or else you would be in hell by now,” Henry mutters as he played with her hair. His eyes met her brown eyes fixed at a spot, she looked emotionless, seeing this made Henry slump his shoulder as he sighs“When will you recover?
