The next day

Saira was in her room in the hostel reading when a knock sounded on her door. She'd been wondering where Anne was a while ago but decided not to bother herself since they weren't friends anymore. She got up from her bed and went to open the door and was surprised to see Eileen standing in front of her door.

"Mrs Delnoi? Um.... Please come in." She stepped aside for her to enter.

"Thank you." Eileen walked into the room and Saira closed the door.

"I'm really sorry about the furniture..." She made a face.

"Don't worry about it. I'll sit here." She pulled out the chair in front of her reading table and sat down.

"Can I get you anything ma'am?" She asked politely.

"I'm fine." Eileen smiled.

Saira sat on the edge of her bed. "How's... Ethan ma'am?"

"He's fine. He woke up really cranky this morning because he didn't sleep well." Eileen told her. "He had a nightmare."

"About what?" She asked.

"About you leaving him. Look Saira, I know you said you made a promise to God and all t

    Ethan was silent for a long time as he stared at her hoping he'd not heard her correctly. She really didn't want to be with him?"Do you mean... No you can't be my girlfriend or No you can't marry me?" He inquired."Both." She answered somberly."Oh." He said. "Okay.""I'm sorry." She apologized.Ethan took a deep breath, held it for some seconds then let it out. He couldn't let her see how hurt he was. He guessed he should have listened to Anne when she told him that Saira was only playing with him."Karma is such a bitch." He chuckled dryly. "The player just got played.""I like you very much Ethan..." She started to say."Don't lie to yourself Saira." He cut her off harshly. "I'm sorry I came between you and Daniel. I won't... bother you anymore.""Ethan...""It'll be like before. You'll be a stranger to me and I'll be the same to you." He told her. "I can't stay where I'm not needed.""I...", She sighed."I want to be alone." He said and turned his face away from her.Tears pooled

    "Anne." Saira breathed. "What are you... doing here?""Last time I checked, this was also my room but... not anymore and you know why?" Anne asked."You'll tell me." She said."Ethan not only told me to evacuate the room but also to transfer. Can you believe that?" She laughed shortly. "Because of you.""I doubt it was because of me. Darina claimed that you were working with her which was how she knew I was in school that day and tried to shoot me." Saira snapped. "Have I ever wronged you Anne?""You don't know?" Anne looked surprised."What?" She bit out."Surprise! I'm also in love with Ethan Delnoi!". She shot up from her seat. "I told him about my feelings for him but do you know what he told me? He said that not one of us compares to you."Saira was stunned. "He really said that?""He said and I quote; And like I always tell them... I'm saving my heart for the one I'm looking for. I'm sorry but there's no place for you in here." Anne cited. "When I asked him if you were better th

    Ethan was watching TV when the news came on about an incident that happened in TAU. He was suddenly alert when he heard Darina's name and Saira's and immediately called out to Eileen who rushed in wondering what had caused him to sound so panicked."Mom... Mom, find out if Saira is here." Ethan ordered. "Find out if she's admitted here.""Um, okay but why?""Darina stabbed her and left her for dead in her room. Someone found her and called an ambulance." Ethan replied. "Please Mom, go and find out.""Okay, okay." She nodded and hurried out of the room.Ethan hoped Saira was alive because he couldn't say what he'd do if she died. He knew he shouldn't have let her return to school at all but she'd been adamant so he'd had no choice but to give in."You've gone too far this time Darina Natalia O'briel. Too far." He thought.Eileen walked to the nurse's station but couldn't find anyone until a nurse passed by her and she stopped her."Yes ma'am?" The nurse said."I want to know if Saira A

    Three days later The first person Saira saw when she opened her eyes was Daniel which surprised her because he'd been arrested and was in police custody with his father so how he was here, staring at her with a smile on his face was beyond her."Hey." He greeted."Am I... dreaming?" She croaked out."Nope. You're wide awake... finally." His smile widened.Saira looked around the room and realized she was in a hospital room and wondered for how long she'd been asleep."What are you doing here? You're supposed to be in jail." She frowned."Ethan dropped the charges against me. Why he did that is beyond me." He shrugged. "But I'm happy to be out because I've missed you, Saira.""Where's Ethan?" She inquired."He was in his room the last time I checked." Daniel replied. "I'll get the doctor." He stood up and left.Saira hoped she'd not woken up in another time where she was still Daniel's girlfriend because he was acting really strange and where the hell was Ethan or anyone else who wasn

    "You didn't die." A voice sang. "Why didn't you die Saira?"She opened her eyes and gasped in fear when she saw Anne standing beside her bed holding a jagged knife over her."What are you doing here Anne?" She asked."I came back to kill you." Anne smiled evilly. "Goodbye Saira." She thrust the knife into her chest and twisted it."No!" She cried out in her sleep. "Saira!" Her mother shook her awake. "Wake up darling, it's only a dream."Saira jerked awake breathing heavily and looked around the room in fear. "Anne... Anne...""Your friend, Anne? She's not come to visit you." Jesselyn said."No... She... She came here to kill me Mom." Saira choked out. "She won't stop until I'm dead.""What are you saying?" Lyn looked confused."Ethan... Where is Ethan?" She demanded. "I want to see him.""I think he's asleep honey. It's two am.""Please I want to see him Mom." She pleaded. "Please.""Okay." Lyn nodded and stood up. "Calm down okay? I'll see if I can get him." She kissed Saira's fore

    Daniel stood on the balcony and watched as the car drove into the compound and pulled up in front of the house. He frowned as the back door opened and Eileen alighted then Saira followed but Ethan remained in the car.He'd been hoping that the bastard had been joking about his disability so he wouldn't continue to feel guilty for what he did but it seemed to be true as one of the bodyguards carried out an electric wheelchair from the trunk of the car and dropped it by the door so Ethan could sit on it."Damn guy." Daniel thought. "He's really crippled."Ethan looked up as he felt someone staring at him and smirked when he saw Daniel glaring at him."Hey!" Ethan waved at him causing Eileen and Saira to look up as well.Daniel lifted his hand hesitantly and waved back then turned and walked into the house.Ethan chuckled. "Fool." He muttered under his breath."Welcome home honey." Eileen hugged him. "You've said that a million times Mom." Ethan chuckled as they went into the house. "It

    "Who the hell turned on the heater?!" Daniel bellowed from the pool thirty minutes after he jumped in to swim."That'd be me." Ethan replied from the terrace."What the fuck? Why would you do that?!" Daniel hoisted himself up and out of the pool then grabbed his towel from the lounge chair."Cos I felt like it." Ethan smirked. "It was fun to watch.""You're a bastard, you know that?" Daniel rumbled. "If you weren't in a wheelchair, I'd have given you the beating of your life." Daniel walked around the pool and climbed up the short steps to meet him.Ethan laughed humorlessly. "There's nothing stopping you from trying. My mom is out." He told him."I know what you're trying to do but it won't work." Daniel said. "I won't give you that satisfaction.""If you touch my fiancee again or make her cry, I'll make you regret it Danny." Ethan threatened him. "The heater I turned on will be like a caress compared to what I'll do next. Do I make myself clear?""I'm shaking in my trunks." Daniel f

    Ethan was only half asleep when he heard his bedroom door open and close then light footsteps walked towards his bed and then he felt the bed dip as the person joined him."Ethan? Are you asleep?" Saira whispered."Yes." He mumbled.Saira giggled. "Very funny." She said as she drew back the covers to get comfortable and covered herself. "I'm sorry.""For what?" He was yet to turn."Because of what happened." She said. "I only went to tell him to stay away from you."Ethan turned his head to look at her. "I can protect myself Saira.""I know." She sighed. "I just... When I heard what he said earlier today, I guess I became scared that he'd make it a reality." She pouted.Ethan reached out his hand to brush her hair away from her face. "I let him off the hook the first time doesn't mean I'll sit down and watch him hurt me again." He told her. "He's only seeing a side of me that I want him to see."Saira moved closer to him. "I love you very much Ethan. I didn't even love Daniel half as

    "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.
