A week later

"Ethan!" Saira gasped and sat up in bed abruptly. She'd been having a romantic dream that had turned into a tragic one and it concerned Ethan. She turned on her bedside lamp and took her phone with a shaky hand then quickly clicked on Ethan's number and put the phone to her ear.

"Hello." Ethan replied groggily.

"Oh thank God." Saira sighed in relief.

"Saira?" His voice became alert. "Are you okay?"

"Yes but are you?" She asked.

"I'm fine. Is something wrong?" He asked.

"Uh..." She paused and looked at Anne's sleeping figure then stood up and walked into the bathroom. "I had a terrible dream about you."

"Dream? What was it about?"

"Er... Can't really remember it now but I'm scared." She said. "I can't lose you."

Ethan sighed. "It's just a dream, Saira. Nothing's going to happen to me. I promise." He assured her.

"Okay. I miss you." She said in a small voice.

"Same here." He replied huskily. "I need to kiss you Saira. It's been hell for me wanting you but not being able to

    "No let me go!" Saira tried to free herself as the three ladies dragged her to the bathroom. "Let me go!""Stay put or you'll injure yourself again!" Kaisha snapped at her."Like you don't want to do just that now." Saira snapped back.They dragged her into the bathroom and deposited her on a chair in front of the tub then Diana tied her to the chair using a rope and stepped back."What is your relationship with Ethan Delnoi?" Darina asked again."I told you, he's my friend! What more do you want?" She hissed. "Ethan Delnoi never befriends girls! All he does is sleep with them so I'll ask you again and for the last time... What is your relationship with Ethan Delnoi?" Darina questioned impatiently."He's my friend." She replied through gritted teeth. "My friend!""Drown her." Darina ordered.Saira let out a scream before her head was submerged in the bathtub for about a minute and some seconds then she was pulled out. She coughed so hard spewing water from her mouth that her sides st

    "Anne." Saira gasped and pulled away from Ethan. "I'm sorry for... interrupting." She apologized blushing beet root red. "Excuse me." She slipped out and closed the door."What have we done?" Saira began to pace to and fro in the small bathroom. "What if she spills our secret?""Relax." Ethan told her. "Change while I go talk to her.""Be nice to her please." She pleaded."Change." He said and walked out.Anne jumped as the bathroom door slammed and she turned to look at Ethan Delnoi who had an indecipherable expression on his face."H... Hi." She stammered. "I just... I just came to see if she's alright.""Did you see anything?" He asked her."Like what?" She feigned ignorance guessing that was what he expected from her.Ethan smirked. "Good. Breathe a word of what you saw and let's just say... you'll cease to talk until you die." He threatened in a calm menacing voice.Anne swallowed. "I swear that I won't say a word to anyone." She lifted her hand to her chest. "Scout's honor.""P

    Ethan stopped short when he got to the second floor and saw Daniel waiting in front of Saira's door. He leaned against the wall and crossed his ankles waiting to see if Saira would open the door for him and the door opened alright but it was Anne who met him."I'm sorry but she can't see you now." Ethan read her lips. "She's asleep.""Is she okay?" Daniel asked."Yes. The medicine she takes for her hand makes her sleep. I'll tell her you came by when she wakes up." Anne said."Okay." Daniel sighed. "Please tell her I'm very sorry and that I love her.""Sure." Anne nodded. "You look like hell.""I'm good." Daniel assured her and walked away only to stop when he saw Ethan and his expression changed almost immediately. "I hope you're here to see someone else and not my Saira.""And you will stop me from seeing her?" Ethan scoffed. "Of course. She's my girlfriend and not yours." Daniel replied."Isn't this the same attitude that made her ignore you?" Ethan questioned. "Now you're doing t

    "You're going to stay in this bed until you're better." He pushed her back to lie down and wrapped her like a burrito with her duvet."I'm kinda claustrophobic." She informed him."Are you really?" He arched a brow then bent to whisper in her ear. "Does this mean you'll be on top when we finally do it?""You and who?" She scrunched up her face.Ethan laughed. "Wanna bet?""Nope." She shook her head."This has been a long time coming S and it's going to happen. You know that, right?" He asked her."It'll only be in your dreams Delnoi." Saira sighed. "Fine, I won't go anywhere. Just let me out of this thing."Ethan released her but still covered her with the duvet. "I'll jot down whatever the professor says just like you do so you can read." He told her."You'll do that for me?" She looked surprised."I told you that you're weirdly special." He tweaked her nose. "You're so sweet." She grinned.Ethan rolled his eyes and got off the bed.

    After class, Ethan said good bye to his friends and promised to see them later then walked out of the building with Anne."Here." He passed her Saira's notebook. "When you get back to the hostel and she's awake, tell her I've gone to get her order, okay?""Sure." Anne nodded. "Can I go with you though? I suddenly have a craving for chicken and chips as well." She prayed he'd say yes so she could at least spend some time with him even if they weren't going to start chatting like long time friends."How about I buy for the both of you instead?" He asked."Will you?" Her eyes widened."Yes." He replied."Thank you." She smiled and watched him walk away then she sighed and made her way to the girls hostel hoping Saira had made up with Daniel.Ethan got to the parking lot and unlocked his car, he opened the door and was about to get in when he felt a hand on his shoulder and he turned to look at the person. It was a woman dressed in a uniform and guessed her to be a non teaching staff."Ca

    Saira got to the waiting room just in time to see the doctor talking to Ethan's mom and Eugene and Daniel was behind them looking quite pleased with himself which caused Saira to frown, wondering why Daniel looked so happy but she was more concerned about what the doctor was saying and didn't bother contemplating on Daniel's weird behavior. She'd been lucky enough to get through the crowd of female students waiting for news outside and thankfully one of the bodyguards knew her so he let her pass, much to the chagrin of the crowd and now, here she was listening with bated breath to the doctor's explanation of the injuries Ethan suffered.It was as gruesome as Raphael claimed."He's in a critical condition right now and he needs to have another blood transfusion." Dr Phillips informed them. "Due to the loss of blood and internal injuries he suffered.""What type?" Eugene asked."AB negative." Philips replied. "We're out of AB negative blood in our blood bank and it will take...""I am

    "What do you mean it was your doing?" Eugene stood up.Daniel shuffled his feet as he felt Saira's hand leave his. "I... I'm sorry." He apologized. "I was angry because he was going after Saira so I... I had someone hack the onboard system of his car. His brake failed and..." He had more to say but a resounding slap landed on his cheek which made him stumble on his feet."You tried to kill your brother because of a girl?!" Eugene roared. "A girl!"Eileen couldn't believe her ears and she slowly moved backwards until she slumped down onto the recliners in shock. If anyone had told her that the boy she'd welcomed into her home with open arms would be the one to take away her pride and joy - she'd have called that person a blatant liar but now she'd heard it with her own ears."I'm sorry." Daniel apologized tearfully. "I only wanted to hurt him..."Eugene slapped him again. "Shut up!" He ordered. "Nothing you say will justify what you've done!"Eileen clutched the edge of the recliner sh

    Saira trudged up the stairs to her hostel room feeling very exhausted. Her relationship with Ethan had caused Daniel to become a criminal overnight and Ethan... thankfully was still holding on.He'd flatlined but the doctors were able to bring him back so she was hoping that God had heard her prayers and was planning to wake him up soon because she wasn't sure what she'd do if he died.She unlocked the door, went in and closed it gently then crossed the latch and locked it back again. She leaned her forehead against the door as tears pooled in her eyes and she sniffled. She'd turned to a cry baby now which surprised her because she'd expected the well of tears to have dried up."Saira." Anne called. "Are you okay? Is Ethan okay?"Saira wiped her tears and turned to look at Anne who was sitting up in bed dressed in pink pajamas. "He's fine. He's in a coma but he's fine.""Anyone who is in a coma is anything but fine." Anne informed her. "It's like saying they're alive but dead.""He i

    "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.
