Emma opened her eyes suddenly, she had been sleeping on the sofa in the hall of their house. As she sat straight her back of the neck pained cause she had slept all night while sitting.
She doesn't remember when she fell asleep while crying all night. Last day was a bit hectic since evening and as night came, it became even awful. She was about to stand up to go to her room when her father came out of his room, heading outside.
"Dad!" She exclaimed to stop him.
Her father stopped but he didn't turn around,
"Dad last night..." She paused in between.
"Make it quick I have to go." His cold voice was now making Emma feel more guilty.
"Last night was my fault, I- I shouldn't have said anything to him." Emma's voice was low and so were her eyes looking down on the floor.
There was a silence for a short period after which Emma's dad sighed lightly and said,
"No, it
"Mr Niall?!" Sarah called him out as soon as she entered his hall.The lights were off and though she was afraid of darkness she didn't dare to turn them on cause who knows what will make him furious. But still, she could see the surroundings a bit as the thin blue curtains weren't able to block the sunlight fully. It looked like a dawn time sky, not so dark, not so illuminated."Are you there?!" She asked as she kept walking towards the staircase a few steps behind the white sofas."Emma..." She was panting a but."Told me that you don't even receive calls.""I'm...here to ask if you're alright."She was about to walk past the white sofa when her feet hit into something. As she looked down she gasped."Mr Niall?!"She said as she realised that she had bumped into the outstretched leg of him. He was half asleep and as soon as he heard Sarah's voice he flickered his eyes
"Everything is according to plan?" She exclaimed with happiness as she got out of her car."Yeah that's true, Drake made are plan to be executed more easily, else it would have been harder to make this happen."She wasn't able to stop smiling as finally, her revenge was taking place. Wearing an off-shoulder dress ending just above her knees she was flipping her black hair back now and then as she walked towards the house."I waited for this day all this time and now that it's happening I can't believe." She said and declined the phone call after a few seconds."Now you'll see what happens when you don't work according to Carla Pearson." She and wasabout to enter the house when someone grabbed her wrist and took her to the parking of the carter mansion."Ah!" She yelled and the man covered her mouth."Mmm," She mumbled."Shut up!" He yelled and finally let her wrist and her
Away from all this chaos today Cally was taking Anna hospital along with her. Today is Anna's last session therapy. It's been a month since she started it and she feels it worked quite well."Today's weather is quite refreshing isn't it?" Cally said and Anna nodded along."It's not too hot or too cold just so perfect and...after that chaotic night it's nice to see such nice weather," Anna added."Hmm, Mel was chaos. Why did we even call her? " Cally said as she kept looking at the road while her brows furrowed.The slow music played along on the radio while Cally drove swiftly. They both grooved along and after a while, they finally reached the hospital."Let's go!" Cally exclaimed happily.Cally and Anna's bond as friends have gotten deeper through this whole month they spent together they now often share their feelings and even hang out sometimes."What's happening there now?" Ca
"Sarah! Sarah! Are you alright?" Jeremy covered Sarah's cheeks and jerked her a bit who was standing and looking at Niall who was being taken out while his hands were tied in handcuffs.'I'm sorry, Niall. I...am sorry.' She said in meditation.Her eyes were wet, her neck had marks of Niall's grip and her brows were furrowed."Sarah! Answer me!" Jeremy asked again, finally gaining her attention."Are-are you fine?" He asked again.Sarah nodded and before she could say anything further she fainted. Jeremy held her and jerked her but all his tries went in vain. She was unconscious."Let me take her." He said as he picked her up in his arms assuring the hospital workers who had come with an ambulance.Driving towards the hospital, he kept looking at Sarah from time to time while she was still motionless. He wished for her to wake up, he can't see this state of her, all weak and pale.
"What happened?" Hannah asked as soon as she barged in Sarah's room."She-she fainted due to stress an-and shock," Jeremy stated who was sitting there all the time."Who did this to her?!" She yelled. Jeremy stood there being silent cause he knew the answer will make her even more furious."Answer me!" She yelled again and jerked Jeremy."Ni-Niall." He unwillingly answered her back making her more furious."I knew it! That guy-" Her eyes went wet. "guy ruined my daughter's life. What he wants! Why can't he leave her alone?""Where is he?!""Under-under arrest.""Serves him right, he should be there," Hannah said and walked towards her unconscious daughter.Jeremy felt what Hannah was thinking about home wasn't right, Niall has never been mean to Sarah, he truly loves her. He stood facing the door in a dilemma if he should tell Hannah everything or...be quite as he has been.Think
"She still hadn't come and is not even picking up the phone." Emma was restlessly roaming in Niall's cabin waiting for him."Ma'am! Ma'am!" Someone came in running while calling Emma."What happened Dave? Everything alright?" Emma asked as she saw one of the employees came running to her and stopped in front of her."Have you..." He panted"Have you seen news channels?""No- no, why?""Wait a second." He switched on the tv in Niall's cabin."Yes, today. Around half an hour ago this incident took place, cops are still avoiding to present there side and views on this matter." The female anchor said.The make anchor sitting just beside her took over,"This isn't the first time such an incident has taken place but still it's very shameful to say that our country is not safe for our women. What do you think Emilia?" He asked the female anchor."Yeah, that's true! From our sources, we've got to k
She is walking along on the busy road wearing a hospital robe. Her hair is messed up and she is a bit dizzy under the bright sunlight, she shouldn't have left the hospital says her conscience but she can't leave Niall to suffer alone conveys her heart.Running on a slow pace her mind consecutively makes her remember the parts of her memories. The voice of Niall echoes in her mind,"Let's...get married, Sarah...""I don't want to waste more time, let's just...everyone know that we love each other."Sarah held her head with her hands and she shook her head. She is trying her best to reach her destination.But where is she heading towards?She is trying her best to find a way to meet Niall, to tell him that now she remembers everything, to clear his name, to tell everyone that he is not a psychopath.Not knowing to whom she should contact she rushed t
"15 February..." Cally readout.The diary cover was quite delicate and pages were yellow loosely held by the cover presenting how old it was. Looking at how carelessly it was jotted down anyone could imagine that it was written by a kid."Luna has gifted me this diary, she told me to write in it I think to improve my English I'll write in English in it rather than Chinese." Carla read further under her breath.She turned some of those foxed pages, "Today Luna brought some bread from the market, it was tasty. Luna is the best in the world. I love her." She read in a low voice.Repeatedly reading the name 'Luna' made her wonder who she is so to find it out she turned more pages,"25 February,I miss mom and daddy, if only we hadn't shifted here then they would've been with us.""But now that Luna is here I'm not scared anymore. She loves me the most.""28 February,
One year ago...Jeremy's sudden back hug made Sarah flinch“ Realise it before it's too late Sarah. I don't want you to regret it…” He whispered and uncoiled his hands from her waist.Thinking about what he meant Sarah turned around and found no one standing.“ Was I daydreaming?” She thought.She was not sure what this all meant but, inside her stomach a sudden churning made her feel nervous, she knew something was wrong.
Leo had lost against his fate, he thought..."Do you...remember now?” Cally whispered her eyes flooding up.Leo looked at her, her green eyes making him remember something, something which happened the same way it is happening right now.Then Leo remembered what happened, he remembered how he fought with that tall man to snatch the gun from his hand, how he...had accidentally shot Luna and how that man pushed her in the river.He remembered how he ran away leaving Leo with a gun in his hands when he heard the villagers rushing towards the bridge.He...remembered everything. And as it flashed, his eyes immediately looked away from Cally's He stood up and so did Cally."It was me?" He mumbled."Leo!" Cally called him out."I killed her..." He kept murmuring until held Cally his shoulder and turned him around.His eyes are full of guilt, rage and tears."I am that damn murderer!" He yelled and Cally hugged him."No no...you aren't...yo
"Why are we here?" Leo asked standing in front of the numerous clothes hung in the hangers."It's because...I want you to wear something good. Something which might suit you even more than this."Cally was casual but Leo didn't understand her motive for taking him shopping, from his logic he thought shopping is not something that would lift his mood so...why shopping?She made him try several clothes and finally they were done for today."We going hotel?" Leo asked and she just nodded.*****After roaming in the hotel and discovering it a bit they went back to their rooms.Tonight, Leo slept on the bed of his hotel room, peacefully. But Cally wasn't able to sleep."It was supposed to be today, Cally!" Ray was confused by her behaviour."I know! But... it's hard for me to do this...it will hurt him. It will hurt him... to death.""But...you know why you've gone there. So...just get it done, Cally. Why is it

"Leo was too young at the time when...he lost his parents in a flood." She rubbed her hands together."And thus, he has no memories of them and he doesn't even remember their faces. He just remembers Luna before she died as he has trauma related to it.""Sometimes...it happens when there's an incident that you want to forget but you can't, and sometimes there's a memory that you want to keep so badly but because it hurts you inside, your brain automatically deletes it from your memories. It creates false or less painful memories as an escape."Mable said as she looked out the glass wall of the cafe."In Leo's case, I guess...it's the second one, he wanted to forget everything as it hurt him madly but, his brain instead kept it protected making him feel guilty," Cally concluded."I have...decided to take him back to the place where it all started, the place where he lost his parents. I...want to
Cally took in a deep breath before she went inside Ray's cabin."Good morning, Dr Caroline..." He said as he looked up a bit while examining the file in his hands."Dr Ray I-" She hesitated.Ray looked up at her and realised she was quite nervous about something. She looked here and there and rubbed her hands together in nervousness."What happened? You don't seem quite confident as usual?" He took out his specs and put it aside."Umm...can I..""What? Is there something in which you need my permission?" He questioned and she immediately nodded.He looked at her with raised eyebrows."Can I take Leo out with me somewhere?" she spilt it out in one breath and clenched her eyes in fear.Though she stood always being confident in front of Ray she was still afraid of him. Ray kept looking at afraid Cally and was shocked to see her being nervous and afraid in front of him
Cally ran towards Leo's room but was stopped in middle."Why?!" She yelled at the nurse."Doctor he is going crazy...no one's allowed to go inside." She kept her grip tight."Nurse Mable? Where's she?""She...is not here. She is missing." The nurse replied."I have to go inside!" She yelled and tried to get rid of her grip but instead, she was held even more tight with the help of make nurses."LET GO! HE NEEDS ME!" She yelled but no one dared to do so.Until Ray came,"Let her go!" He yelled and they got their hands away from her, shuddering in fear."Cally you can go inside, I'll handle.""But sir-" Whoever interrupted was glared by Ray.Can't went inside and was again welcomed inside the darkroom, she felt the same she had felt when she had entered it the first time. She was scared, she didn't know where he was standing and this time the room more good than ever.
Everyone stood up as the doctor came out after operating Drake."How's he?" Merylin asked as she went to the doctor in a hurry.The doctor removed his mask, "He was severely injured and his neck his broken. We had to perform some surgeries to stitch his forehead which had many glasses shreds stuck on it. But fortunately, he is alright. He will be shifted to the VIP room and then you can meet him but only two at times. Try not to crowd the room."As the doctor went Merilyn took a breath of relief, she was made sit on the bench by Hannah. And everyone present there sighed in relief too.Soon after five minutes, more Jeremy's doctor came out too."What happened, doctor?" Emma asked."We've taken out the bullet from his chest, but we can't say anything still. it will take at least twenty-four hours to regain his consciousness and if still he doesn't then...he might suffer from a coma.""No!" Emma yel
Everyone's at the hospital, while Flora was taken to the police station. She is not allowed to meet his son until she confesses everything.Sarah is sitting on a bench beside Cally and Lisa, in front of an operation theatre waiting for Jeremy's to come out and inform them about his health. Here Emma is roaming around the whole corridor as she is worried. Both Drake can Jeremy she can't afford to lose anyone of them. One is her brother and the other is her best friend.In the silent atmosphere, someone comes running,"Sarah!" Anna exclaims as she approaches her behind him is Ray.Anna hugs Sarah wipes out her tears."I heard whatever happened, how's it going right now?" Her concern can be seen on her face.Ray stood behind Anna his eyes wandering, searching for Lisa. When Sam else came there too.As soon as he came Lisa stood up,"Lisa!" Sam exclaimed and she hugged him tig
