After Panda has made sure that my fever is down, we set off for home. It feels weird being driven around by Panda King himself. He has been acting on edge and jumpy since yesterday. I still don't know what has made him nervous.

I check my phone again for any messages from Ciarra but there is nothing. I just want to know if she is okay. I was actually planning to introduce Pan and Ciarra to each other but I guess I'll have to wait for another time.

"You've been checking your phone a lot." Pan says glancing sideways at me as he drives.

"I'm just wondering if Ciarra is alright." I confess.

He smirks, "Your girlfriend is fine. If she really cared about you, she would have contacted you."

"What's so funny?" I ask in irritation. Is he laughing at me?

"Nothing." He says and reverts back to his poker face as he drives.

    Lying on my back, I stretch myself out on the bed. Home sweet home. I never thought I would ever call this huge mansion a "sweet home" but here I am."Tin." I hear Liana's soft voice from outside."Come in." I quickly sit up as she walks inside. She stares at me with concern in her blue eyes."Are you okay now Tin? Pan told me what happened." Her eyes water up and before I know it, she is in tears.Grabbing the box of tissues on my bedside table, I hold it out to her and pat the space next to me."I'm okay now. Don't worry. Sit down Liana." I say gently. She sniffles and sits next to me, her eyes still watering."I was so worried when Pan told me." She sobs into my chest.I glance down at her head. What should I do? I am still wearing my binder on my chest so I should be fine for now.Hesitantly, I bring my hand towar

    Refusing to explain the kiss, I cry endlessly into Wade's arms. It feels nice to be comforted by someone like this. No wonder Liana came to me.As my brain reloads and my senses return, I understand the reason why I am upset. It sounds petty and childish but I know the reason Pan kissed me was to distract me and stop me arguing with him. It was foul play.On the other hand, my heart couldn't appreciate the kiss because I only now realise that there is something else I feel for Panda King.Something more than a business relationship, something deeper than friendship and something which is threatening to overcome my being.How did I end up having this feeling for none other than Panda King?!Tina Gold is in love with Panda King.The ridiculousness of this whole situation would have made me laugh on a normal day but after the kiss, I have realised th

    TW: Cancer _____________________________ On the drive home, my mind has become a battleground. After discovering that it was Panda King who saved me that night from Theodore Emmet, a part of me feels warm and happy. However, the better part of me is still feeling angry with Pan. The mystery behind why I awoke naked still remains. I know that he didn't do anything to me but what exactly happened after I blanked out? "Tin, are you still angry at me?" Pan asks into the silence. I roll my eyes, "What do you think?" "I didn't mean to do it." He says apologetically. Switching the engine off, I step outside. The night air feels nice against my face. I stand there for a few minutes, smiling as the breeze grazes across me. "Tin, you know I didn't kiss you on purpose." Pan says from behind me. My face scrunches up in a

    The next few days are hellish. I don't return to the King mansion. This nightmare feels too long. Mint and Dad seem to have become lifeless zombies but I am no different. We still haven't come to terms. The funeral is prepared in a blur and it's only the three of us who are present. I know we should invite Mum's friends but we aren't in a good state ourselves right now. Our eyes are bloodshot and we have dark circles from the sleepless nights. Dad is trying his best to stay strong for us but I know he is broken inside. We hang her photo up in the house as a memory. My eyes haven't been dry in days. We haven't eaten properly either. I do my best to cook something but none of us have any appetite. Panda King has rang me many times but I have ignored his calls and switched my phone off. Hans has been coming over every day to check up on us and take care o

    The sun is bright as I wake up. My head hurts as if a giant stomped his feet on it and I find myself gazing at a handsome face.As I groan in pain, I realise that this is the first time in a month that I have been able to sleep without nightmares. The feeling of being wrapped in these arms is not bad.I lie there, reluctant to get up and leave his arms. It's fine for me to sleep for a while more.

    As usual, Panda King corners me when I am least prepared.Ever since I returned, I've been spending any free time I have, cooking and doing random chores to keep my thoughts away.As I clean the chicken meat with the biggest kitchen knife, I hear his voice from behind me."Why have you been avoiding me?"I hack away as I answer without turning around, "I haven't.""So why have we not spoken properly in a week?""It doesn't bother me." I shrug as I continue slicing."Tin Gold!" He shouts into my ear and I jump, the huge knife still in my hand. His ocean eyes stare in horror at the knife. When did he come and stand next to me?"What?" I ask in boredom."C-can you put that away first?" He hasn't taken his eyes off the knife.I grin and put it aside. "Sorry Pan."

    Some of the office women still give me flirty looks when I follow Panda King to the company. As usual, I smile and nod at them awkwardly."Pan, you have a meeting in two hours." I read aloud from his schedule."What is it about?" He asks, sitting in his office chair behind his desk."A meeting about the construction of the new mall which..." I stop as he holds up his hand."That's enough. Help me sort through these documents Tin." He says in his authoritative "work" voice.I stare at the huge pile of files and papers piled up on his desk."All these?""Yes. Is there a problem?" He asks with a raised eyebrow."You're helping me right?" I say. There is no way I will be able to get all these edited and handed to him by the end of the day."Of course not. I am sorting out the documen

    I groan as the doorbell rings and Panda King shouts at me to check who it is. Does he not have any mercy for an injured person?Stumbling off the sofa, I limp towards the front door. Slowly, I walk down the front driveway and open the front gates.I should have known when I accidentally broke that glass cup this morning that it was an ill omen.From the other side of the gates, the familiar dark haired Mrs King stares at me. Her brown eyes scrutinise me from head to toe making me feel nervous."Welcome Mrs King." I smile anxiously, gesturing for her to enter.She smiles at me but it doesn't reach her eyes. Is something wrong? My brain mentally assesses the situation and I realise what is wrong here.Last time Mr and Mrs King visited, I was a female with long hair and was the girlfriend of their only son.

    Heart racing and my hands shaking with nervousness, I stand up. The mirror is a long floor length and my white gown flows down my body like a waterfall. The lacy neck adds a touch of elegance to the dress and the trail is shorter than the regular wedding dress' since I want to make sure I don't accidentally trip whilst I walk. As Liana turns around and puts the makeup and hair styling tools back into her bag, I pace around, trying to calm my nerves. "Tina, are you still nervous? Don't worry, everything will be fine. I'll look after baby Carl when you walk down the aisle." Liana says, patting my shoulder comfortingly. Panda and I finally decided on a name for our baby because the parents kept scolding us for calling our son "Cub". Thus, he is now named Carl Martin King. I smile at her, "Thank you. I don't even know why I am so nervous." I admit. I haven't been feeling well since last night. It must be what the

    Sleeping in the same room as Panda King feels different. It's different from all the times in the past when I was "Tin" and it's different from the night at the island. My nerves are everywhere as he wraps his arm around me and hugs me to him as I lie on my side. Cub is sleeping in his Moses basket which my father already prepared for him. I am surprised how easily my dad accepted my baby and Panda. I thought he would continue with his cold, stern father charade for longer. "You're not asleep yet are you?" He asks quietly. I close my eyes and pretend to sleep. I feel him moving his body even closer, his warmth against my back. "I know you can't sleep." He whispers into my ear, causing my body to shiver. I try to stay still but he gently turns me over until we are facing each other. "Open your eyes or I will kiss you." He teases. Damn it! Not

    Once the doctor has made sure that I am fine, Panda holds my hand and takes me to the Neonatal ward. The nurse gently picks up a sleeping Cub and hands him over to me. It feels both wonderful and fascinating as I feel my child in my arms."It's best to feed him your own breast milk for the first year, then he can be weaned onto baby food later." She explains as my eyes are still fixated on him.I nod absentmindedly, too busy gazing at this cute baby. "Yes.""Thank you for taking care of Cu-our son." Panda says with a smile. He wraps his arm softly around my waist and gently manoeuvres me out of the room."He is so cute." I say quietly, touching Cub's soft hair."Just like his dad." Panda grins.I chuckle, "No way, he obviously takes after his mum.""Of course. His mother is the most beautiful woman." Panda hugs me to him. "I'm glad

    With my face damp, I wake up. Did I have a nightmare again? Why is my body hurting? Sitting up slowly, I glance around. I am not in my room. My hand has a familiar drip injected inside. Why am I in the hospital again? Touching my bump, I gasp. Why does it feel so light? Where is my baby?! Crying as thoughts cloud my mind, I hurriedly pull off the drip from my hand and climb out of the hospital bed, ignoring the pain in my stomach. The door suddenly opens as I run towards it and an exhausted looking Panda King stares at me with wide eyes. I run pass him, trying to leave the room so I can find a doctor and find out what is happening. I am so confused. "Tina! Tina, please calm down." Panda says as he holds me in his arms, preventing me from leaving. He worriedly holds my hand. "You're bleeding. Please listen to me Tina and sit down. Let me sort your hand out." My body feels cold as I stare

    Seeing Panda King via video call does not satisfy my heart. I miss being with him but to carry out our plan and get the evidence from Ciarra Lake, I have to sacrifice my time with Panda.Of course Hans is still angry about me going to see Panda but he has started talking to me again. I returned home and lied to my dad about having some gastric issue. I still can't tell him I am pregnant.I don't meet Panda for a few weeks. It's a day where I am uselessly lounging around the house when Panda video calls me. Smiling happily, I accept the call and gaze at his handsome face.He looks extremely excited about something as he grins widely. "I've done it Tina!"Confused, I raise my eyebrows, "Done what?""I finally got hold of the evidence Ciarra had. I have gathered all the CCTV footage from the house too. The kitchen footage is pretty interesting." He says.I

    "Pan, is Ciarra really your wife now?" His sister Liana King asks as she pushes her blonde hair back. Liana has been worried lately. Ever since the ruined wedding, Ciarra Lake insisted and demanded to move into Panda King's mansion and live as his wife.Panda shrugs at his sister, "In her dreams.""You don't care for her, not even a little?" Liana asks curiously as she drinks the milk."No. I only love..." Panda hesitates. Will Liana get upset if Panda tells her the truth about Tin being a woman? He knows his sister has a crush on "him"."Who?" Liana asks with wide eyes. "Come on Pan, tell me." She begs."Someone." Panda says mysteriously. He doesn't want to upset his younger sister. She will find out soon anyway."What are you guys talking about? Shall we eat together?" Ciarra's annoyingly cheery voice says as she walks into the kitchen.

    The dreaded day finally arrives where I have to leave Panda King. I shouldn't be feeling this unhappy and upset given that this is all my plan and Panda is helping me by willingly sacrificing himself. All the way through the ferry ride back to the mainland, I had held hands with Panda and slept on his shoulder, afraid of when I will be able to be this close to him again."Don't cry Tina." Panda hugs me to him as my tears fall out of my eyes. "It won't take long. I'll come to get you soon."I wrap my arms around his back and cry into his chest. Why does this man have the power to weaken me so easily?"It feels like a dream." I mumble against him, "The island.""Don't worry about me," Panda pats my back in comfort, "I'll get the evidence and put her behind bars.""Come back to me quickly." I say through tears, "If you don't hurry back, I might decide to get married to Hans."

    TW: Slightly 18+ Content _____________________________ After staying at the island with Panda King for a few days, I have discovered that he has learnt new skills and improved himself into a better man than which I had thought. "Open your mouth love." He says gently as he holds the spoon out towards my mouth. I stare at him incredulously, "I'm not ill Pan, I can eat by myself." He shakes his head, "I have to take extra care of you right now. What would I do if you got hurt? Just let me feed you." Staring at the bowl of soup in his hand, I warily ask, "Is it edible?" "Of course it is! You don't know how long I practiced cooking after you left. I can make a decent meal now." He puts the spoon of soup into my mouth as I obediently eat. "Of course not as good as you love." I blush as he feeds me. I am stil
