Ethan took a deep shuddering breath when he felt Saira's hand pull from his and he turned his head to look at her. He watched her take a step back, watched her swallow as she stared at the baby in Jeanette's arms. The baby who was his exact replica except that his eyes were green like Jeanette's and he had blonde hair like her but it was a given, even without conducting a DNA test that DJ was his biological son.

"Saira?" His voice was shaky as she took another step back. Was she leaving?

"Um..." She paused, looking everywhere else but at him. "You should um... go upstairs and finish this."

Ethan backed Jeanette, completely forgetting about her and focusing on his wife who looked like she wanted to be anywhere else but in the lobby at that moment.

"We can talk about this. Don't leave." He pleaded as she continued backing away from him.

"I have to go." She turned and ran down the opposite direction towards the fire exit.

"Saira!" He called and made to run after her but Jeanette's voice

    Ethan was stupefied wondering what just happened but he got himself and ran after her, grabbed her elbow and whirled her around to face him."Let go." She snapped yanking her arm from his. "I'm being ridiculous right? Why don't you and your smart self get into your smart car and leave me alone?""Saira...""Don't talk to me for a few days." She ordered. "I'm going to my mom's house." She held up her palm."What?" He frowned."I need money to go there, doofus." She snapped."There's no need for insults now." He scolded her as he pulled out his wallet, took out his driving license and dropped the wallet on her palm. "You can go now.""I do not need all of it." She protested."Yeah, whatever." He muttered and walked away."Are you really leaving?" She looked stunned."Just following orders... ma'am." He called over his shoulder.Saira huffed planting her hand on her hip as she waited for him to turn back and look at her at least but he didn't and just kept on walking."That's how you wan

    Two days later"Dude, what's going on with you and Saira?" George demanded. "Everyone has noticed that the two of you are having a lovers quarrel. Don't tell me it's because of that mysterious woman that showed up here two days ago?""We're fine." Ethan said. "You don't expect us to be with each other every hour of the day, do you?""I'd believe that if you were studying a different course." George huffed. "You know you can talk to me Ethan."Ethan groaned. "Okay fine. But that will be later." He said. "Where's Harry?""Talking to Saira.""Why?" He looked for Saira and found her sitting at the back where the bench warmers usually gathered which made him frown wondering what she was doing there. Harry had his arm around her shoulders talking quietly to her."We decided that I'll be the one to talk to you and he'll talk to her." George shrugged. "We don't like what's happening with the two of you so we want both of you to kiss and make up.""We'll kiss and make up when we're ready." Eth

    Ethan sat in the restaurant of the hotel waiting for Jeanette to join him. He'd wanted to tell Saira where he was going but decided at the last minute. He didn't want to be the one to talk to her first and have her gloat about it even though he knew she wouldn't because she wasn't someone like that.He was missing her like hell and as George said, they needed to kiss and make up but not yet. "Sorry for keeping you waiting." Jeanette apologized as she joined him. "I had to... feed the baby.""It's fine." He said. "Let's order. I'm starving." He signaled to the waiter.The waiter came and they told him their order and he left. Jeanette picked up the glass of water on the table, took a sip and dropped it."You wanted to see me?" She asked."Yeah." He stroked his chin. "I'll just go straight to the point." He let out a sigh. "I want a DNA test done.""Okay." She said. "I figured you'd want that." She smiled faintly. "When?""Tomorrow. I booked an appointment with my doctor at our family

    Saira was stunned as she felt Daniel's lips touch hers and she immediately drew back then glared at him. "What do you think you're doing?" She demanded. "He doesn't deserve you, Saira." Daniel said. "It's not even been a month and he's gone back to his old ways. You should get out while it's still early.""Get out of where?" She feigned ignorance."This toxic marriage. Do you really want to be with a man who doesn't respect you and the vows you both took?""You caught me at a bad time, Daniel." She told him. "I just got an unexpected call and I wanted to talk to my husband but I couldn't reach him...""Because his mistress picked the call and told you your husband had just finished banging her and was in the shower washing off the scent of her body from his before he returns to you." Daniel cut her off harshly. "You really want to be with that kind of man?""Maybe I misunderstood her." She shook her head. "Ethan loves me."Daniel laughed without humor and sighed.

    The happy couple walked casually and without hurry to the department of Business Administration despite being an hour late to class which was unlike them, but at the moment they didn't have any care in the world. They walked holding hands, smiling widely and teasing each other and were oblivious to the person watching them from a distance. After all, what harm could befall them in broad daylight with other students loitering around?"Hi!" A voice called out. "Ethan!"Saira and Ethan both turned simultaneously to stare at the person and saw a lady coming towards them with a big smile on her face."Do I know you?" Ethan frowned when she got to them."Uh no, I'm sorry." She apologized. "I just... I've been wanting to meet you for a while now. I'm a big fan of yours."Ethan was surprised. "Fan? I'm not a celebrity or anything." He said and looked at his wife. "Or am I?"Saira chuckled, saying nothing."Well you're more famous than Brad Pitt these days." The lady said laughed. "What a...

    The incessant ringing of Ethan's phone jolted him awake from his sleep and his eyelids fluttered open. The room was dark except for the lamplight which Saira had left on because she didn't like sleeping in the dark. He leaned over her to pick up his phone from her bedside table and stared at the screen. It was just two am in the morning which made him frown but he answered the call anyway."Hello." "Ethan?" Jeanette's voice said in his ear. "Ethan, I don't know what's wrong with DJ." Ethan slowly shifted out from under Saira and got out of bed and went to the bathroom. "What do you mean?" He rubbed his hand over his face to clear the sleep from his eyes."He's been crying all night. I don't know what to do." She said."You should take him to the hospital. Health Land." Ethan told her. "I'll be there in an hour.""Okay." She said."There is a doctor on call at the hospital, I'll give her a call so she can immediately attend to him once you get there." He said."Okay." She said.Ethan

    George and Harrison watched their friend pace to and fro in the waiting room, looking very anxious. They'd rushed Saira to the hospital after they found her unconscious in her room in the girls hostel and now they were waiting for news about her and it was like they'd been waiting forever."Dude, you're making us dizzy." George said. "Aren't you feeling dizzy from all that pacing you've been doing for the past one hour?"Ethan stopped pacing. "I didn't ask you to watch me, so don't." He snapped."Sorry." George apologized.Finally, the doctor walked into the waiting room and from the expression on his face, it seemed that there was no good news."Doctor, how's my wife?" Ethan asked him."Well, Mr Delnoi... Your wife is okay, but..." He paused."But..." He probed."We were able to flush it out of her system, but the damage had already been done." The doctor said. "Your wife was two weeks pregnant, Mr Delnoi."George and Harrison let out excited gasps and hugged each other, until the wo

    "You've been quiet." Saira remarked, staring at her husband who was busy on his phone. "And you've been on your phone since you walked in." "I'm sorry." He apologized, finally looking up from his phone. "Are you okay?""No." She frowned. "What do you need?""I need you to stop acting like my being here means I'm dying or something." She snapped."What?" He stared blankly at her."Both of our mothers and even Eugene have been giving me that look! That one!" She pointed a finger at his face. "Stop it.""You're not dying, Saira and we were not giving you any kind of look." He said. "It's all in your head.""Really? I made a joke yesterday and no one laughed.""We didn't laugh because it wasn't funny." He told her. "You made a joke about looking like death, sweetheart. What was there to laugh about?""But still!" She huffed."Watch TV." He reached for the remote on her bedside table and turned on the TV. "What do you want to watch?" He asked her."Wait!" She called out as he made to cha

    "Ethan!" Saira cried."Now your turn." Daniel stood over her with the gun pointed at her head. "My love for you has turned to poison, Saira. I'm sorry, but I have to do this." Then he pulled the trigger, but the bullet wasn't discharged and she watched in shock as Daniel fell to his knees with a bullet lodged in his head and he slumped to the floor beside Ethan."Not on my watch." A female voice remarked from the doorway.Saira looked up with wide eyes at Ethan's mother who was still pointing the gun at Daniel as she walked into the room as if she wanted to shoot him again."Mom?" Saira croaked out. "How did you...What are you doing here?""I called her when the police were taking too long. She got here faster than they did." Harry walked into the room. "I'm beginning to think you were a car racer in your previous life, Mrs Delnoi."Eileen chuckled. "Ethan's father taught me." She knelt beside Ethan. "Oh, my poor baby.""We should take him to the hospital." Saira's voice was hoarse fr

    A week laterEthan"Are you sure you want to do this without involving the police?" Harry asked me as we sat in the car a few distance from the house where Daniel kept Saira. "I mean...""I want to do this myself, Harry." I cut him off. "He won't get away with this."I'd contacted Uriel Yamaguchi alright, and he'd promised to help me out. He knew everything one could possibly know about hacking computers and was also a professional hyper realistic mask creator. He'd been able to hack into Daniel's phone and computer and even his car and had gotten me all the information I needed to find Saira. I'd wanted to come and save her the same day, but I'd decided to wait and make a plan so everything would go smoothly.I reached out to carry the box on the back seat and dropped it on the console between our seats then looked at Harry."I'm going in." I told him."I'll come with." He said. "You can't tell me not to come with you. He'd probably have more than enough men guarding her, now that h

    Three days later "What did you do?!" Saira cried immediately Daniel came into her room. "What did you do?!""You killed him." Daniel shrugged."Excuse me?" She was dumbfounded."You said you'd rather die than be with me. You said you wanted to be with him and not me, so I thought I'd just make it easier for the judge by judging him myself." He replied flippantly. "You kill using a gun... so, one must die by the same weapon.""Where did you put him? No one can find him." She said through gritted teeth.After the shooting, the men had gone to look for Ethan to finish him off finally, but they couldn't find him. He'd just... disappeared. They'd set the house on fire thinking that if he'd survived the rain of bullets, then he wouldn't survive the fire. "He was probably hit so he went to hide somewhere to die alone." Daniel said. "Now you can be with me forever.""Over my dead body. You have killed my son and husband. I have nothing else to live for." Saira sobbed."I would never harm an

    "Actually no." She said flatly.His smile dimmed and she smirked smugly back at him, happy she'd stolen his thunder."I already knew." She shrugged. "Darina loves Ethan too much, so it's out of the question that she'll want him to plead guilty in court. Lucian doesn't have anything to gain by kidnapping me, so I figured that you would be behind it." She waved her hands in the air. "It wasn't rocket science.""Very well." He breathed. "Then you must know the condition I set for him.""Ethan would never do that." She scoffed. "It seems you don't know him.""I know he loves you very much and he'd do anything for you." Daniel smirked."You're asking him to throw his life away!" She yelled."Pssh. I'm sure he'll get a lesser sentence." He shook his head. "His dear mother wouldn't let him go down like that.""And this is how you want to repay the woman who opened her arms to welcome you? The woman who treated you like her son when your own biological mother abandoned you?" Saira questioned.

    "No!" Saira cried. "Pay him no mind Ethan!""Do that or you'll never see your wife again." The leader said and disconnected the call, shut the laptop and tucked it under his arm. "Better pray he loves you enough to do that." He turned and walked out.Saira was pissed off at the turn of events, but there was nothing she could do. She was tired of going through the same motions over and over again and wanted to end it all, but the thought of never seeing Ethan or her son again prevented her from doing that. What was more annoying was the fact that she didn't even know the person behind her kidnap even though everything within her was screaming Darina's name, but then... She was much too in love with Ethan to want him to go to jail for life.Lucian Chamberlain? He had nothing to gain from doing this, so he was also ruled out and the third option was Daniel."Bastard." Saira hissed. "I'm going to kill him when I see him. I swear it." She clenched her fists in anger.There was no doubt no

    "Sir, Mrs Anderson is here to see you." Adelaide informed Ethan.Ethan looked up from his laptop in surprise. "Saira's mom?""Yes sir." Addy nods."She's here with my wife?" He rose to his feet."She's here alone sir, and she looks very mad." Addy winced."Right." He sighed. "Is DJ asleep?""Out for the count." She smiled."Good." He said and left.He got downstairs and met Jesselyn sitting on a single wingback chair in the hallway. She hadn't even bothered to go to the sitting room to wait. He took a deep breath as she stood up when she saw him and from the furious look in her eyes, he knew something was up with Saira."Good morning, ma'am." He greeted."There's nothing good about this morning if your face is the first thing I have to see." Lyn said. "Where's my daughter?"Ethan's brows furrowed in confusion. "Your daughter? I don't know where she is." He replied. "Did she run away from home?""No you bastard!" She yelled. "Where the hell is my daughter?!""I don't know. I've not see

    A few days later"What are you doing here?" Saira glowered at Daniel immediately he stepped into the sitting room. "Who let you in?""Your Mom. How are you doing sweetheart?" He walked around the sofa and bent his head to kiss her, but got a slap in the face for his effort. "Why did you do that?" He rubbed his cheek."You tried to kiss me. Should I have let you?" Her voice dripped with sarcasm.Daniel glowered at her and took a seat on the table in front of her. "How are you doing?""I'm fine. Thanks for asking, but it's none of your business." She snapped."Anything that concerns you is my business." He reached out to hold her hand, but she withdrew her hand and folded them across her chest. "You don't look fine to me, Saira.""Please leave me alone, Daniel.""Is this because of Ethan? Your mom told me you've refused to eat." Daniel said. "If you kill yourself because of love, Ethan Delnoi will continue to live on and find love again.""Don't talk rubbish." She spat. "You don't know

    "I can't believe that girl had the guts to kidnap Saira." Kaisha remarked as she watched the news on TV. It'd been a week since the incident but news stations still reported the news like it happened yesterday, and why? Ethan Delnoi had been arrested by the police for murder.The Lawsons were very adamant in having him arrested, but they had no power like the Delnois. Not even close and sure enough, Ethan was bailed out that same day by his mother's lawyers."She got killed for it, so it was her loss." Darina said. "She didn't even get to finish what she started." She clicked her tongue in distaste. "Stupid girl.""So are you still going ahead with the plan?" Kaisha inquired. "For the video tape?""I was going to, but after the stunt this foolish girl pulled with Ethan... I'm dropping it." Darina said. "I'd rather not see my head hanging on his wall as a prize, thank you very much.""I pity Ethan though." Kaisha mused. "The guy's not had a break since he started dating that Saira and

    Ethan paced to and fro in the waiting room with his hands clasped together in prayer. Saira had lost a lot of blood from her injuries and though he'd donated some of his for her but, it still wasn't enough.Harry had been checked for injuries but he didn't sustain any except a deep cut on his cheek which had been cleaned and taken care of."She'll be fine dude. She's strong." Harry croaked out."You should really go home and rest, Harry." Ethan told him."And leave you here? No way." Harry shook his head. "That bitch would've killed us if you hadn't come in when you did. I owe you my life, bro."The door to the waiting room opened and Eileen rushed in with Eugene, and surprisingly, Harry's mom."Mom?" Harry was shocked to see her. "How did you...""It doesn't matter." His mother, Dorathy shook her head, pulling him close. "All that matters is that you're fine." She pulled back and looked at Ethan. "I want the name or names of the people who did this.""Name. Anne Lawson." Harry said.
