Colin POVI ran through the airport, pushing while getting pushed by people and Luggages carts, while I ran along the crowded path to the Arrival gate.“Flight BA2480 will be arriving now.” The announcement echoes through the bustling airport, my heart race, my breaths coming in short, sharp gasps as I push my way through the crowds. Sweat trickles down the side of my face, my eyes fixed on the arrival gate, where I spot the first passengers coming out.Pushing my way to the front of the gate, I scan the faces of the disembarking travelers, "Where are they?” my eyes darting from one face to another.Just as my hope begins to dwindle, I spot two familiar faces, Mom and Dad staring at the floor while dragging their luggages with them. Mom is looking so slim now, so is dad. I covered my face to wipe the tears on my face before they saw me. Sniffling my tears In." Mom, Dad!" I called out as soon as they walk out. Dad and mom raised their faces to see me, Mom smiled but Dad frowned.I ru

You told me you Love me and now you won't even talk to me?"As Olivia rants, I heard mom's footsteps approaching, "Stray cats? But I thought I heard a woman's voice?"I freeze, glancing over my shoulder at mom, then back to Olivia's angry face.Just as my mom reached the door, I closed the door slightly. " Mom it's nothing, go get some rest" “ But I think I heard….”“Mom please!” I said in anger." Okay, okay!" Mom replied, taking a turn, she kept staring at me over her shoulder till she was out of sight. "Oh, I see. You're too ashamed to admit to your parents that you've something with me? I’m I so unpresentable to you, “ Olivia we had nothing together, all we had was sex on few occasions that's it!” “ On few occasions? Can you hear yourself speak?

Colin POV" Waiter!" I heard Selena's voice.I can't turn, I can't let her see my face, slightly I turned a little stretching the drink tray to her to pick one." Not this, the one at the other edge" she points.I took one from the other end of the tray and stretched it to her direction with my face off. " Not...." she was about saying.When someone's shoulder hit mine again, shaking the tray of drinks, I try to settle it down but it was too late as the drinks fell to the ground. The females in the hall gasps, I looked up to see everyone's eyes on me." Are you okay?" I heard Jasper's voice, I glance over to see him pulling Selena from the area the glass fell.Jasper raised his head to look at me but I quickly avert my gaze, only to see the manager running over." I'm sorry, I'm sorry, he bent down apologizing to everyone.With eyes away, he steps closer to me. "How dare you? Do you know how much these are worth?" He pulled my nose masks away.I tried covering my face but it was too l

Okay then, I'll sent the retired Manager to give you lots of tips.”I met up with the retired Manager and he put me through the things I needed to know, after it all I went back home.I arrived early at the Hotel early in the morning and made my way to the locker, dressing as the new Manager. The advanced payments were made to me last night which came as a shock to me, well it's a way to make me serious with my work.After dressing up, I walked to the lobby, where I saw the receptionist and some staffs talking. I walked closer smiling as they compliment me on how the Manager suit fits me so well than the previous manager." The boss is around" one of the staff suddenly changed the topic." The Boss?" I asked, unable to understand what they meant." Yes the Boss, owner of JP hotels, he came in last night, I guess for the new year holiday." She add staring at everyone's face."

I can't back down now, I've been paid already. I sent some of it to mom, if I refuse this job how will I pay back?As ordered, I asked the staff, who showed me the VIP swimming pool and things I need to get ready.I prepared drinks and snacks as well as a shade from the sun as I sat there waiting, after an hour I heard footsteps and talks. I looked in the direction to see Selena in a Red bikini, she looks breathtaking and I couldn't take my eyes off her, recalling the times we had together and I almost lost control of myself. Still staring at her, Jasper placed his arm around her waist as he glared at me. My face flush as I quickly avert my gaze. The sound of their approaching footsteps and laughter echoes across the pool deck, and I fight the urge to fidget with your hands. Jasper sits down,
Selena POV.Colin dropped the snacks on the floor all of a sudden without a word only a frown brow." Colin, say something will you? , what really happened?" Grace mock laughing loudly, but Colin said nothing he turned on his heels and made his exist angrily." I think he's angry!" Sonia laughed, taking a sip from her drink." He needs to be, he deserves more than humiliation!" Grace spat angrily." Why, you had a crush on him and he refused to look your way?" " That was back then in college, thank goodness the feelings died, he isn't worth it"." What about me Didn't you have a crush on me back then?" Timothy swam closer to Grace, winking at her." You wish!" She splash water on him and we all laughed." What do you think Colin is about to do?" Jasper whispered to me as he swimmed close. " Resign of course" Jasper furrows his brow,"Resign?

" I'm I poisoned?" I held the female paramedics." I don't think so" she replied, checking the machines." Then what the fuck is wrong with me?" I felt another sharp pain again. “ Help…” In no time we arrived at the hospital, the EMT's rolled me out of the ambulance into the hospital.Pushed Into the emergency room, I lost strength, weak from screamingA doctor leans over, "We're going to need to run some tests. Please try to stay calm, we'll figure out what's wrong."I wanted to yell at him, to tell him that being calm is impossible when my body feels like it's being torn apart from the inside out. But all I could do was grit my teeth and endure.The next few hours pass in a blur of tests, IVs, and questioning. The doctors are unable to pinpoint the source of my pain. I felt myself slipping in and out of consciousness, the drugs dulling the pain but leaving me in a fog.At one point, I felt a hand on your arm, and I opened my eyes to see Jasper standing over me, his eyes red-rimmed

I got to the gynecologist entrance taking a step closer when I saw a lady with the same resemblance to Paige walking out of the OB- GYN to the other direction. Isn't that Paige? I followed behind her, tracing her every steps. She took a corner moving fast to the Hall leading to the operation room.

The hospital is full of rooms and corridors, and I begin to wonder if I've lost her.Realizing I lost her I we
