In Love Again 12: REAWAKENING
While Alvira was planning her day happily, the walker's mansion was fairly the same but for a different reason entirely, Simon woke up this morning with the kind of excitement he had not had in a long time, he had another plan in place for Alvira and he couldn't wait for her to come over. He was so excited, he got on his wheelchair the moment he woke up, called Jared in to help him pick his clothes, took a bath, applied his long abandoned cologne, had breakfast, and waited patiently, as he read the newspaper, which had become a habit of his since he began to bully the poor girl. Hours passed and he looked up at the wall clock in his room which read '10:15 am', he frowned. "She is rather late today," He said to himself then smiled wickedly, "that's okay, I could easily deduct her salary as a result of that," He said as he resumed reading the news that had now captured his attention. Unfortunately for him, his family business news was on the last page of the newspaper, he read throu

Alvira had spent her entire morning baking and making strawberry smoothies, a skill she had acquired during her time as a waiter at a lunch cafe. She then packed the food and snacks into a lunch box and basket and rushed off to St. Josie hospital. "Morning dad!" She chirped as she walked into her father's hospital room. "Good morning darling. Wow! Is that a new dress? It looks amazing on you, my dear." Tim said fawning over his daughter who twirled at his words and giggled. "Thanks, dad." She said as she placed the picnic basket on the floor and sat on the chair beside his bed. "Where's mom?" she asked, her eyes drifting to the bathroom door." "Oh, she was invited by the doctor to his office, she would be here any minute now." He said with a smile, but Alvira's brows furrowed in worry,"The doctor? Is there a problem? Maybe I should join them," She said with worry as she began to stand up. Tim immediately held her hand, "Where do you think you are going, your father hasn't had a

Alvira walked into the Walker's mansion fuming, she didn't understand why on earth her luck would bring her to a man as despicable as Simon Walker. The moment she rang the bell on the gate, two guards opened for her with a smile but Alvira ignore them. She was not falling for that, she was not falling for their trick. The workers in this house were not any different from Simon himself, they all smiled at her suffering and torture while pretending to be cheering for her. Efficiency her foot! she was sure they were still secretly placing bets on how long she would last there. When she walked into the mansion she went straight to the kitchen in search of Jared, the ignorant man smiled when he saw her. "Miss Alvira, you came. You are such a blessing....." "This was not the schedule of my work contract with this family?!" Alvira said interrupting his joyful glees. "Is this the way your family behaves? Threatening people with their salary and making them work overtime?" She asked in a

St. Jose hospital had a pack built behind the hospital, a place where both patients and staff could spend quality time, it was a large piece of land beautified with expensive flowers and white sidewalk benches. The fragrance of the flowers filled the air during the day and one could sit under one of the large oak trees there to enjoy the cool summer breeze. It was the perfect place for some alone time and an amazing place to spend lunchtime away from the bustling cafeteria. Emily pushed Tim's wheelchair into the garden as they searched for a perfect spot for themselves, and soon they found it, a spot under the canopy of a large tree not far from a sidewalk bench. Emily laid the picnic cloth on the grass, and helped him unto it, then plopped pillows behind his back so he could rest against the large tree comfortably. She then got on her knees and began to unpack the food basket Alvira had packed. She set the first lunch box down and opened it, "Ah! looks like your daughter only

To Alvira's greatest surprise, they were driven to a mall, the very place he had earlier refused to go with her.Simon was wheeled out of the van and he turned to Alvira. "You said I needed some casual clothes, well here we are, get me the casual clothes you promised." He said but Alvira raised a brow at him. "We could have just come here tomorrow, or better still, you could have told me beforehand, let's say yesterday, instead of messing up my day. She muttered looking away and Simon rolled his eyes at her whining. "So are you going to go with me or you are going to stand here and whine about your job?." He asked and Alvira opened her mouth to counter but swallowed it immediately when she saw the stern glare he gave her. She wasn't excited about this at all, maybe if he had agreed to it when she gave the suggestion she would have been excited. But now, she wasn't, in fact, as of now, she had given up on him and wanted to avoid him at all costs. But she had no choice but to walk t

The sales attendant who had personally made an enemy of Alvira already smiled when she heard Simon threaten to fire Alvira if she leaves. Her smile even broadened when she saw Alvira leave. She knew for a fact that a woman with a personality like Alvira's could not stay employed for long, especially when she worked for the rich who liked obedience so much. Her lack of manners was bound to make her lose her job. She thought with a smile as she brought back the clothes she had been trying to return to the furious Simon. "Sir, do you want me to pack these clothes for you or should we continue shopping for another? I can help you pick some really nice casual clothes." She said with a pleasant smile, but Simon barely glanced at her before saying. "No, thank you. I won't be taking any of them. Neither would I continue with the shopping." He said and began to push himself out of the boutique surprising the sales attendant. So in one word, she had spent more than two hours attending to

One could say, Simon's curses manifested as Alvira was frustrated to the last of her endurance limit. She had run out of the mall in a hurry to get to the hospital when she heard from her mother that her father was fighting for his life and that they might lose him at any time. She got to the bus terminal but met no bus there. She sat patiently for a few minutes but still, the bus was nowhere to be found. She stood up and began to pace as she chewed at her bottom lips, while all the other people equally waiting for the same bus stared at her. She would have taken a cab but if her father was in surgery, they would have to fork over all the money they had, and now that she had lost her job, she couldn't afford to spend recklessly. She sighed and stretched her neck to see if the bus was coming, but it was still nowhere to be found. Tired and impatient she decided to walk to the next terminal which was quite a distance away and that was what she did. On her way there, she saw the clo

Alvira opened her eyes on the hospital bed and looked out the window not far from her bed. It was morning already and a beautiful one at that, the sky was a mixture of blue and white clouds, not entirely clear but beautiful.She sighed as she reached up to touch her head with her right hand, her head felt so heavy, and she didn't know why, she couldn't even remember when she had fallen asleep. The previous day must have been really exhausting she thought, then began to wonder why her room smelt like Iodofoam. She also had a weird dream where her father died and she...... Her eyes widen as she recalled the dream that seem too much like a memory. Her eyes moved over her body frantically and she noticed a few things, The first was that she was dressed in a white johnny gown, lying in a bed that was too small to be hers, only hospitals have this kind of bed. She thought, and her eyes finally rested on the drip hung up and attached to a needle inserted into her wrist. That was when s

In Love Again EPILOGUE
In a small town somewhere in Australia, Clarisse walked down the snow-covered street vigilantly, dressed in heavy padded jackets with a scarf covering her face tightly. She had been hiding here since she escaped the country and had been listening to the news of Josh and Lana in the country.Hearing of Josh’s death, she was more than excited, she was even glad that she had left him at the time she did, if not, only God knows what would have happened to her now, as for Lana that delusional bitch, hehe. Serves her right. She rang the bell of her home, a small apartment where she lived with her boyfriend who she had found in her first week in this town. He was handsome and romantic and he just made her happy. She rang the bell continuously wondering why he was not opening the door. She walked to the one place where they kept the spare house key, under a stone slab by the door but the key wasn’t there. She tried calling him but his phone was unreachable, so she knew she had no choice but
In Love Again 95: THE FINAL STRUGGLE 4
It was obvious that Josh had finally lost his mind and was trying to get everyone killed. Lana looked around from her hiding place in search of Simon. In this situation, if she could escape with Simon, it would be great. She thought, forgetting that she was wanted by the law. Just as she saw him and wanted to crawl to his side, Josh also saw her, this woman owed him a blood debt, and she dared ruin his plan. He thought with anger as he saw many of his men fall to the ground dead, he also wanted her dead.He aimed for her head. At that moment Lana felt a sense of crisis, looked behind her, and saw him pointing the gun at her. Her eyes widened in panic. Josh smiled at her, he hoped she would regret ever talking down on him.“No!” Lana screamed before the gun was shot and she was silenced forever, a bullet hole in her head. Even until her death, she was looking towards Simon with longing, failing to realize he was not the perfect man she envisioned. He was a man with flaws just like ev
In Love Again 94: THE FINAL STRUGGLE 3
Minutes before the gunshot, Simon walked into the building flagged by Josh’s men, unaware that they had been followed by Asher and that the police were not far behind. The hideout was an abandoned food processing factory in an area marked for demotion in town, no one could have guessed that criminals were hiding in such an unstable environment. He followed the men into the not-so-tidy office that must have been the director’s when the factory was still functioning and saw Josh who he hadn’t seen in the past three weeks seated there with a smirk on his face.“Hello cousin, happy to see me?” Josh, who was resting back in the chair, his arms spread out and a happy smirk plastered on his face asked.Simon didn’t care about him or the men surrounding him, he didn’t even care if Josh wouldn’t allow him to leave this place alive, all he wanted to know was if Alvira was safe and sound.“I have what you want,” Simon said seriously as he placed the black box on the creaking table before lookin
In Love Again 93: THE FINAL STRUGGLE 2
Alvira felt herself sink to the bottom of the transparent tank the moment she landed in, only then did she notice that the rope tied around her waist was inlaid with sandbags to keep her at the bottom and made swimming to the surface hard.She tried to swim upward but it felt as if she was only expending her energy wastefully, while Lana laughed at her from without.Lana knocked on the wall of the tank, drawing Alvira’s attention to herself, before going to pick up a chalk and a board and wrote, “Didn’t you say you would rather die than let my plans work? What then are you struggling to survive for? If you die, Simon might just be free from me forever.” She wrote with a smile and the struggling Alvira paused.It was true. If she survived, what was she surviving for? Wasn’t it for Lana to keep on playing with her, hurting Simon and causing him to do things that he shouldn’t do? What was she living for if she was nothing but a weakness to the man she loved? She thought and suddenly fel
In Love Again 92: THE FINAL STRUGGLE 1
Detective Peter frowned uneasily as he stared at the location where the van had been seen, which was marked on the GPS map. It was about an hour ride away from the St. Joseph hospital and out of town, he didn’t understand why these men would come to a damaged car garage with Alvira.There was no hidden place to keep her there, so why bring her? Was some kind of exchange supposed to go on there? Why did he feel something was off? He was wondering when he got Asher’s call, when he heard Asher’s question he felt even more flustered and confused, was there something he was missing? He picked up his phone and called Kalvin.“Hello? Are you with Simon?”“Yes sir, he had an emergency, so I went to get the doctor for him,” Kalvin told him.“Okay,” That’s understandable, “But your Lane is with him right?”“...No sir, he went to get Mr. Simon something to eat.”“So you mean no one is with Simon at the moment?”“We…ll, yes sir…”“What!” Peter shouted and the detectives in the same car as him lo
In Love Again 91: TAKEN 2
“Josh! Josh!” Jared walked into the slightly messy but old office with anger just as Josh got off the phone with Simon. “Are you messing with me right now? Why didn’t you tell me when you got Alvira? It’s been five hours.”Josh's eyes flashed with impatience before he turned to Jared with a smile, “What are you so worked up about? I obviously tried to call you but the call was not going through.” Josh said as he placed another call.“Hello? It’s me. I need a huge diversion. One big enough to get those detectives out of the hospital.”Jared's face darkened when he heard the content of the call, “You are planning to send Simon over?”Josh glanced at him but didn’t respond immediately, he ended his call before turning to him, “Calm down Jared, we are all partners now. The least you can do is trust me.”“Trust you? You didn’t even call me over when you got her and now Simon is coming here. How can I trust you when I don’t know what exactly you are planning?” Jared asked unhappily. “If I
In Love Again 90: TAKEN 1
It’s been a week since Simon was shot and life became more peaceful than anyone expected. Josh and Lana disappeared from the eyes of the public and the police investigation was hitting a dead end everywhere. Their whereabouts could not be found and it was obvious that some powerful people were helping them, but those helping them could not be discovered either.For Alvira life was pretty much good, she and Simon were reconciled and they were even more attached than they used to be in the past. She guessed that when people go through challenges together, their feelings for each other get deeply rooted. Simon was still forcefully hospitalized, as his hand was still in the cast, and the new physiotherapist didn’t trust him to be careful with his leg even though it was fine. As much as she wanted to stay with him at the hospital, she also needed to rush back to school to finish her exams.She walked out of a high-end restaurant, with takeout bags in her hand followed by the detectives th
In Love Again 89: A JOINT PLOT
[A shootout occurred at a coffee shop down lane 23 today, Mr. Simon Walker who was present at the sight of the shootout was injured and has been hospitalized, as at the time this report was made, his present condition is still unknown. The police, during their investigation however discovered that Joshua Stone, a highly wanted criminal, working hand-in-hand with a woman called Lana Jones, daughter of the millionaire, Mr. George Jones was the culprit in yesterday’s shootout.

You. Shot. Simon? Why did you shoot Simon?! The one you were supposed to shoot was Alvira! That was the plan! That was why I got you out of jail?!”“Stop freaking out! You were there, weren’t you? He took the bullet for her, couldn’t you see that? He took it for her before my man could shoot her down.”“That’s a lie!
In Love Again 88: RECONCILED
The next time Simon opened his eyes, he was in his private ward at St Joseph Hospital. He looked around confused, tried to sit up, and was immediately helped by Sarah who had arrived at one point in time.“Grandma? What are you doing here?”“Silly child, what do you mean what am I doing here? I am your family.”“Yes.., yes, I know. I am sorry.” Simon looked around the room, “Alvira…, where is she?”“She’s fine. She’s giving her statement to the police as we speak and your grandpa went with her, I must say, you did a good job this time. Alvira finally forgave you.” Sarah teased as she nodded towards his casted hand which was hung to his neck.Simon followed her line of sight and sighed helplessly. His grandma was always like this, trying to cheer a patient with the weirdest joke. “Grandma, I didn’t wish to get shot at.”“But it was still a good thing in disguise, wasn't it?” She winked and smiled.The door to the ward opened and Alvira walked in, seeing Simon awake in bed she rushed to
