Lily felt a sudden gush of emptiness surround her once she heard the tires of Dilan's car speed out of the house. She walked around the house looking for something she could get herself busy with. When she found nothing she went back to her room, his perfume still lingered. She lay on the bed when a sudden memory resurfaced in her mind. It was the day she had flown back to the country to meet betty and also the day she had pronounced in front of Silvia and everyone that she was Mrs. Thor.
She remembered vividly telling Dilan that she couldn't love him because she was philophobic and they both agreed on not having any kind of feelings towards each other. She sighed when she remembered their vows, at first she had taken it to be nothing until she heard him repeat his last words she couldn't explain why but she felt a kind of sensation of happiness fill her but then it dissipated before it could even manifest. She also reminisced when Dilan had told her outspokenly that he lovLily woke upon hearing the sound of voices. She went by her window side and saw Dilan discussing with two other men and Rhys. He looked up and saw her then he entered the car without even waving at her. The car drove out and she closed the curtain. She found tears pouring down her face and splashing on a paper next to the side of the desk beside her window. She quickly reached for a tissue. She wasn't going to enjoy this new lifestyle if she was going to burst into emotional tears at any slight attitude she received from him. She thought grimly. Yet, why not? wasn't this part of the freedom, to be allowed to feel and to love and not to be scared to show emotion. Her thoughts drifted to the paper she had tinted with her tears. She opened the letter on it wrote"Dear wife,Am sorry I couldn't wake you up to say my last greetings before I left because I knew if I did you won't let me embark on my journey but don't worry just think of me as if I am right there with you
Lily tossed her bag on the bed and began to undress. She took her shower and lay on the bed. Her hair still dripped wet but she didn't seem to care, teardrops fell from her eyes. It had been 3weeks since Dilan had left but he never called or texted her anytime she asked about him from Rhys he'll reply to her casually'He's fine ma'am you don't have to worryShe was worried....how could he not have phoned her....was he lost....or did something happen? She didn't know or maybe he might have forgotten her? She tried his number for the umpteenth time but the number was said to not exist.She began to cry heavily. She had overworked herself to get him off her head but no matter what she did she always saw him in the Shadows. She slept every day with the feeling of waking up to see his face but unfortunately, he wasn't there. She felt pained. She grabbed her pillow and began to hit it"You left me...you left me Dilan....." she cried. Her towel loosened around her
Dilan still had a few more process to undergo before he was to be a Medical Doctor. Of course, it took years for others but not for Dilan not only for the fact that he was a blood relative of the most honored Thor but also because his IQ was out of this world. He was able to finish and accomplish what had taken others years in just days. He was meant to go back to finish his one-month study but with the way, things turned out he had to take Lily with him."Are you sure you don't want to come with me?""No am fine" she lied."Okay then" Dilan stood up.He walked to the door"Won't you escort me out?"She looked at him and followed him to where his car was parked. He entered the car but the car didn't move immediately"Won't you take me to the airport?" This time lily became suspicious but she agreed and they drove out.His luggage was already taken Care of and he was about to board. "One last hug?" he askedAnd she hugged him before
Dilan had successfully fulfilled his dream of becoming a Medical doctor. On the day when he was to give a speech reporters were in their large numbers. When they had seen Noah Thor with his wife and Sir Karin and his wife walk in they had tried to approach them to get answers to their questions but the securities hadn't even given them a chance. They all became impatient as they waited for Dilan to begin his speech. Nix and his wife Sasha had also been present with a few more being Silvia, Zen, and Charles. Zen hid in the shadows for fear of being caught in the hands of Dilan Thor. "He's afraid of Dilan?" Charles laughedSilvia nodded."So how does he feel around Noah Thor himself?" "I don't think he scares him that much""Maybe he might have lost his Taste" Charles added just then a professor walked up to the stage.He addressed the crowd and the reporters alike. He then acknowledged the presence of the Thors before recognizing the other special
Phoenix's attention was focused on Dilan he didn't notice when Sasha slipped out. When Dilan had finished and had taken his wife to meet a group of people he turned to Sasha but her sit was empty. His suspicion grew wider....he stood up and began to look for her around. He passed crowds of people but he couldn't find her, he went to the lady's restroom but she wasn't there either. He didn't think her to be in the men's room but his legs had already begun to go in that direction. He was about to push the door open when he heard a voice.....Sasha's voice."Hope this goes well.....""Your such a scary cat are you?" a male voice repliedPhoenix's face darkened....that voice seemed familiar he racked his brain for who it might be but it seemed nothing was able to come forth.He became annoyed with himself until a name rang in his head"Zen"His eyes widened and the door opened. He hid immediately and saw his wife walk out but no one came out with her. He was
Dilan had left lily saying he had a lot to tackle but he put her under restriction knowing she wouldn't tell him about the message. He ordered the guards and all to be on alert and not to let her go anywhere at all till he was back not even his father.With that, he kissed her and left. Around 5:30 a car parked outside the house and lily knew who it was. She saw some guards come around and then the car left. Her heart began to beat furiously. She planned on the best way to escape she went through one of the rooms which she was sure was unguarded from the tunnel which led to the outside. She took a phone with her and dialed the number, the car that she had seen stop at her house stopped in front of her and she entered. She saw a male figure who didn't even bother to take a glance at her. After a few minutes, the car came to a halt without being told to she came down, and right before she stood an uncompleted building "Come right on in" a text popped in her pho
Betty's amused laugh echoed in the living room"It is not like I'm lying" Mayan retorted.Betty glanced at him and smiled."I love it when you oppress me with those dimples"Betty's cheeks flushed red "Am hungry want to go out for a meal?"She shook her head"I'll go make us something to eat," she said quietly moving towards the kitchen. Mayan ran after her"I think I'll follow you so you don't burn down the kitchen," he said jokingly Betty squeezed her eyes shut. Knowing fully well that Mayan was taunting her now, she opened her eyes filled with determination not to let him win "You know what I mean," he said pinching her cheeks when he noticed that sudden serious expression"Ouch that hurts" she winced. Mayan had begun to cut the vegetables, before Betty began she tied her hair in a messy knot and tendrils had escaped, curling on the delicate lines of her neck. Mayan swallowed and his eyes caught and held hers. Her face looked so lovable and pure, even without a facial expressio
"He's doing well," Darrel said to Noah Thor packing his equipment into his suitcase"Are you Sure?""Trust me"Darrel was about to leave when Noah Thor held him back."Are you sure he won't remember even a thing about her?""I can assure you that he won't unless he sees her again"."She won't" Darrel nodded and left the room. Noah Thor walked towards his son who lay unconsciously on his bed "It's all for your best son" He left his room and called for Silvia. If not for the fact that Darrel has insisted on giving Silvia to Dilan as a wife Noah Thor would never think of giving such a woman to his son but right now his hands were tied. Darrel explained the reasons why he needed to do so saying....."It seemed that the surgery didn't have a complete effect on him as supposed to but in, either way, there is a solution," Darrel spoke in a low toneNoah Thor's face darkened immediately but Darrel continued"Since Dilan still has the feeling of being married even though he doesn't know who
Noah, Sajan, and Niah hugged Betty tight she felt she was going to run out of breath."Please don't kill my fiancee before our wedding" Phoenix commented. The kids and their father, Cosmo chuckled. Cosmo walked over to where Nix stood."I'm sure the kids would miss you much too especially Sajan"Nix gave a light smile."I will too""I'm sorry for what Sasha might have put you and Betty through with her vain quest"Nix just stared at him and nodded. Cosmo gave him a light pat and then walked back to the children. "Don't forget to call me if you need help with anything" Betty said."Would you fly over just because of them?" Cosmo asked."Yes" she answered with all seriousness "I still take them as mine though not biologically"Betty hugged the trio once more and then cosmo before leaving them to catch their flight. "Now back to the main business," Nix said.Betty wanted to know why her father helped Sasha forge the results."Or didn't he want her to be with Nix?" She thought aloud
Ring ring...Her phone kept buzzing but she refused to pick up. Why would Dilan be calling her so early in the morning? Though a part of her wanted to answer the call and find out why another part of her seemed to have gotten the best part of her reasoning. She watched her phone buzz repeatedly till he decided to stop calling. She breathed a heavy sigh of relief. Then a knock on her door. She felt tormented. What was all this? At first she concluded she would just stay and wait till the person left but the next thing she heard made her heart jump from her mouth. The person had broken her door down and began to look through the house. She peered from above but only caught his silhouette. She ran inside her room immediately and made to lock the door when she felt a strong hand push the door open. She fell on the floor due that action. "Charles?" She muttered."Why are you...?""Lily is missing" he answered back cutting her off. In seconds he explained everything to her. Each sentence
"Congratulations ma'am" the nurse excitedly congratulated her, her face beaming with smiles. She turned to Steve who was still starting ever lovingly at Silvia. "Please make sure she gets enough rest" the nurse repeated but this time emphasizing strictly to Steve.He nodded in affirmation promising to do so. Silvia ed is oblivious to what was happening within her. Steve held her hands and kissed her on her forehead. "Don't be scared babe I'm here for you " he told her. Silvia didn't know what to do at this moment, she was in utter confusion. This could be the end of her life and career. It would have been better if only she knew about it but then Steve found out. How on earth was she going to tell this man standing before her that she wanted to abort the baby? Not that she couldn't but he'll try to find out why.What was more terrible was knowing that she was going to be in trouble when Dilan or any member of his family gets to hear this. Speaking of Dilan..her phone rang...It w
Silvia glared at the piece of paper in their hand, she crumpled it and threw it into the bin. She got into her car and drove home, she began to ponder"a month pregnant?!!!" she yelled."I can't be. This can't be possible. She parked the car by the side of the road and began to do some "calculations""But we were protected and I never skipped my morning pills" She thought so hard her forehead began to hurt. A memory flashed into her brain, she remembered the time she had stayed indoors with Steve all through. She was too lost in the moment she forgot herself. She yelled and screamed and finally sobbed. This was a bad turn for her, she knew she could not even blame it on Dilan who not for once even gave her a handshake. "Steve!!!" She drove to her house in annoyance. She threw her purse on the couch and began to think of a solution"If I tell him....he might want us to get married" she concluded. With the way steve professed his love for her over and over again she knew that telling
Cosmo walked up to Betty and knelt to face Sajan "Am your father" The man told the boy. The boy blinked repeatedly and looked at Nix."Come" Cosmo put his hand forward to take the boy. Nix dragged the boy to himself. Nix fell short of words too even though it had been his wish for all of this to vanish into thin air or for someone to just pop out of nowhere and claim Sajan. But he didn't think he might feel the way he felt now. He had gotten used to having Sajan as his son a part of him felt excited about having him."What do you mean?" Betty asked Cosmo. He smiles embarrassingly but answered her question truthfully, not wanting her to doubt him. "It's a long story" She cocked her head to the side in wonder. "Let's go home then" Betty suggested. Sasha got into Cosmo's car while Nix, Betty, Sajan, and the twins got into the car leading the way for Cosmo. Nix called Noah Thor who advised him to drive to his house including that he would call Doctor Darrel. The car came to a hal
Arriving at the dining hall, the couple and the trio were given a private room. The elevated radiant ceilings and the orthodox scenery embellished an astonishing ambiance. The interior area appeared friendly and alluring with the flowers on each table and relieving piano music that float in the restaurant. The decibels weren't very high, the soundness was quiet and superficial. Nix discovered that Betty had been silent since they entered."You order I'll be in the bathroom," Betty said with a smile. He nodded and sat down with the children all cornered around him. Betty went into the washroom, she wiped the tears that were about to fall, making sure that she was alright she went back to her date. Phoenix had set up a kind of "family reunion" but it was more like a reunion between him and Betty.Betty sat on her seat which was directly opposite nix, giving him the perfect opportunity to stare at her as long as he wanted. They were served lobster balls and tofu "Simple?" Betty asked"
...Betty found it hard to sleep all through the night. She kept on reminiscing about the events that occurred between her and nix. The surprise kisses ran chills through her spine anytime she thought of it.Matt was right she missed nix but more now she thought of him. After a long thought, she stood up to go and meet Alicia but she paused in her tracks when she thought she might interrupt something.Just then she heard a knock."Wanna talk?" Alicia asked.Betty smiled to herself."Nix you have four days left to bring my son back to me" Sasha texted nix.Nix laughed at seeing the message."Any problem dad?" Sajan asked as he joined Nix on the couch."Your mom misses you"Sajan frowned"Why?""You don't hate her do you?""A little""she's still your mom and you shouldn't feel that way toward her" Nix explained to Sajan.Sajan was about to reply when they got interrupted by a knock on the door followed by the swinging open of the door."Matt?""Phoenix... it been long," Matt said giving
"Betty, why did you even attempt that?" Ashely patted Betty on the back while she sobbed heavily."No matter where I go I'll still feel the same way about him....I'll still love him and i"ll still want to be with him. I can still feel him he's like everywhere. But I can't forget what he did. He lied to me he deceived me" she cried."But he loves you that am sure of" Betty didn't say a word after...after a few minutes she fell into a deep slumber."Phoenix?" Matt asked as he sat beside Alicia.Alicia nodded."So how long is she going to stay here?" "As long as she wants" Alica replied curtly "Why the attitude?" Matt asked with a smile"Why the smile?" she asked back"Get serious Alicia....stop fooling around and help your friend""Matt" Alicia screamed his name and rushed towards him. She blew a punch on his stomach and he "groaned" in pain and began to laugh."That hurts babe," he said hugging Alicia tightly "Leave me you twitch""No" Matt disagreed and kissed her."Your lips tast
Nix and the kids had left that early morning leaving Betty alone in the house. She decided to take a walk before she finally left to "find herself".She just couldn't stop thinking of the happenings of yesterday, especially the surprise kisses she had gotten from Nix. Her lips itched to get more but she was relieved her senses were still in control and had stopped her from what might have led to another thing and now she had her chance to run away from him she wouldn't let it go.She decided to take a cab to anywhere her heart finds solace."Going where ma'am" "Just taking a drive""Okay to where ma'am?""Don't worry I'll take a cab""No ma'am just let me" the driver pleaded.Betty didn't want to argue so she agreedThey drove far away from their hometown, she didn't want to see or hear anyone she knew. She was already aware of the "I love you's, why did do that" coming from her friend Alicia and Nix. But she neither hear any of it. Driving down to the beach several miles away. She s
