Matilda gasped, she held Diane's hands and dragged into the house, closing the door behind her.

Diane still had that rage in her eyes, as Matilda stared at her. Her face began to release, with beads of sweat on her forehead drying up.

She wiped her face and turned away from Matilda, folding her arms and looking out the window. Matilda went to her and held her shoulders, she turned her around to face her.

Diane's expression had changed, she was looking all sad and her shoulders dropped. Niki was across the room watching all that played out, he knew it was not the right time to poke nose into any of this.

“Diane, it's alright. I know you're angry about everything and seeing him now…”

“He hurt you Matilda, not once not twice. And I was not there to defend you, I will make him regret it!”

She turned away from Matilda again, still looking out the window. Her voice cracked as she spoke, the anger could still be heard from her voice.

Matilda hugged her from behind and Diane closed her eyes a

Her eyes were becoming red, she shot Diane a deadly look but Diane was not moved.“You've been laughing at your phone since you got here. You claim to be a friend of Matilda's, but do you know how she's been feeling in there?”Diane pointed towards the entrance where Matilda and Niki walked in earlier.

He walked away and left them alone, Diane dropped Tiana's phone on the chair and walked away.Tiana gasped and flipped her hair, she just kept looking at Diane with so much hatred and disgust.

    Jaden paused as he opened the door, it took him a while before he turned back around to look at Tiana.She still stood there with her arms folded, pouting her mouth with a slight grin on her face. Jaden slammed the door and walked towards.She moved few steps backwards as he was in her face, his stare was so intense that she was already getting scared.Tiana tried not to show how scared she was, she flipped her hair in dramatic style moving away from him. Jaden tightened his fist by his side, his knuckles were getting red from the force with which he tightened his fist.“What did you just say? When did you start to spread fake rumors about me, huh?”His voice resounded like thunder in the thick darkness of the night. The hospital’s security light made it possible for Tiana to see how furious Jaden already became.His jaw was twitching, his hair fell in his face but his eyes was still visible. He arched his eyebrows as he moved closer to her.Tiana looked around to see if anyone was t

    Tiana threw the pillow on the floor, she climbed up into the bed. She carried her father's hands and yanked it.“Dad, dad please wake up!”Mr Tom squinted his eyes, he used the back of his hands to rub his face. He looked at his daughter, he groaned as he sat up in the bed.Tiana placed her hand on her chest and sighed, she closed her eyes and wept so loud.Mr Tom was confused, he didn't know what to do.

Why are you crying?”She sniffled so hard, she opened her purse and brought her a small tissue. Her eyes were already bloodshot, she tried to speak and developed a hiccup.“Dad…dad I thought something happened to you. You were not responding when I called you”.Mr Tom chuckled and yawned at the same time. The yawn turned into laughter, Tiana folded her arms and pouted. He was making fun of the whole situation.“Princess, nothing happened to me. I was just tir

She kept pumping air into his lungs, but nothing was still happening.“Open this door!”Diane was still battling with opening the door, she kept banging on it but the nurse was concentrating on Niki and did not respond to her.The nurse threw the resuscitator bag on the floor, she pushed the emergency alert button and ran towards the door, it was already out of her capacity.She opened the door to leave and Diane was still there.

He scratched his head with the tip of the flower bouquet and bit his lip.Matilda walked up to him and smiled, she rubbed her palms together and was moving on her feet.“Good morning, sir. You're here”He put the flowers in her left arm, took her other arm and put the bag through her fingers.Matilda gasped and staggered, she almost fell from the weight of the bag.

He got to the end of the table and sat on the edge, facing his son.Jaden shook his head and smirked, he looked down at his feet and was tapping his shoe on the hard floor trying to contain his anger.The study was cold, the air conditioning was doing its proper work. But Jaden could feel trickles of sweat dripping down from his underarm area.He stared at his father, with so much disappointment written all over his face. His father had always looked down on him, and he was still doing it.Jaden clenched his fist by his side and spoke through gritted teeth.“Why wouldn you ask such a question, father?”Mr Brooks shrugged and stroked his beards, he could feel the anger in his son getting more intense, but he had a goal.“I don't know, maybe because you've been out late nowadays. Smelling of alcohol sometimes”Jaden moved closer to his father, he bent slightly to get to his eye level. It felt like a staring contest, but Mr B

    Jaden dropped his phone on the bed and walked to where she stood. He took the dress from her and looked at it.He shook his head and threw the dress on the bed, he picked up his phone and started to punch some letters.Matilda just stood there, folded her arms and was looking at him. She removed the hairband from her hair and tied her hair again.“Yes, that's the room”He said that and dropped his phone on the bed again, put his hands in his pocket and stared at the dresses that were scattered on the bed.“Pack those, they are coming to try new dresses on you”Matilda squinted her eyes, she paused her lips and untangled her hands. “They? Who are those?”Jaden blew dust off the portrait that was standing next to him, and used his thumb to wipe it. He looked at Matilda and smirked, as he blew the dust off his fingers.“You will see when they get here”He walked to the dressing table and leaned on it, crossed his legs in front of him and put his hands in his pocket.He shook his legs an

    Matilda gasped and withdrew her hand, she turned facing the ceiling up and not taking her eyes off it.It was all dark, but she could feel Jaden staring at her. He moved and she couldn't predict the position he was moving to, she was not looking at him.Jaden groaned as he stretched his body, he relaxed himself and was also staring at the ceiling.He moved and turned on his left, resting on the grip of his arm as he stared at Matilda in the dark. He moved closer to her, moving his body swiftly on the bed and pushing the duvet aside as he moved closer to her.Matilda could feel his breath on her face as he moved closer, she also moved a bit but if she moved one more time, she would meet herself on the wooden floor.He stopped moving when he was closer to her face now, their breaths intertwining with each other's.Matilda's eyes moved without her will, and stared at the young man that was in front of her. In the dark, she could see his face up close, the way his eyes moved and of course

    Jaden pulled her away from his body and she also hit her head on the couch. He got up immediately and was adjusting his shirt, also scratching his head.Matilda rubbed her eyes, trying to get a clear vision as the sleep was still making her drowsy. She didn't understand what Jaden was trying to do.“I was just trying to help out because you were dozing off on the couch”Matilda still did not get it, but she nodded and sat still. Jaden went to the bed and drew out a big duvet, he proceeded to spread it on the bare floor.“You can have the bed, I'll sleep on the floor”Matilda got up and put her hands in front of her, waving it as she was shaking her head in disagreement.“No sir, no. I…I can actually sleep on the couch while you can sleep on the bed”Jaden is a very stubborn person, he hardly listened to anyone when he had made up his mind.And the last thing he would want was to make Matilda uncomfortable. He couldn't let her sleep on the floor or even on the couch.He took two pillow

He closed his eyes and sighed when he saw who the caller was.“What is it this time, Tiana?”“What's with that irritating tone of yours?”Tiana squinted her eyes and her face, like she had just seen the most disgusting thing in her life.Tom ran his hands through his hair and took a drag from his cigar, and he dropped it on the ashtray.“Just say what you want to say, Tiana”She rolled her eyes and sat on her bed, crossed her legs and cleared her throat.“I'm meeting with Matilda soon, so be prepared. This time, for real”“I hope so”“What do you mean by that?”Tiana was already getting irritated, anger was was beginning to rise on her inside. Tom could sense it from her tone, and the last

    The car came to a halt as Jaden stepped on the brakes with so much force, causing Matilda to jerk forward.She almost banged her head on the dashboard, but the seatbelt saved her in that process.Matilda gasped with her mouth wide open and her hair all over her face. She put her hand on her chest, and was breathing very heavily. She looked like she had just seen a ghost, she froze and could not move.Jaden was not moved, he still held the steering wheel and was looking at her, waiting for her response.“Why did you do that?!”Matilda half yelled as she turned towards Jaden, her voice cracked and tears were gathering up in her eyes.She was scared, her hands were shaking and tears were falling from her face without control.Jaden's heart sank, he wasn't expecting her to act that way, he never meant to hurt her…he was just angry.“I didn't mean to, I…are you okay?”He leaned towards her, with his hands stretched to touch her.

    Jaden took a pink jacket from one of the racks, and placed it close to his shoulders, trying to imagine how Matilda's shoulders are.He placed it back on the rack, after concluding it would be too big for her. He ended up going for a black jacket, which would suit Matilda according to his own knowledge.Matilda saw him coming through the door, and she immediately adjusted his phone back to where she took it from. The air conditioning in the car was working well, but beads of sweat were gathering up on her forehead. He came into the car but Matilda was looking straight ahead all through.Jaden handed the bag to her, but she was not even looking at him. He looked straight ahead to follow her gaze and see what she was looking at, but he didn't see anything.“Matilda, are you okay?”With a weird smile on her face, she looked at him and kept nodding her head. He handed the bag to her again, and she took it .“Thank you, sir”Jaden squinted his eyes as he tried to figure out why she was ac

    Matilda kissed Niki for the 5th time that morning. The little young man was not in for all that lovey dovey, he just wanted to have some more sleep.He grunted and moved in his sleep, muttering words no human could understand under his breath. He was not plugged to any machines anymore, because he was feeling better.Matilda chuckled and caressed his cheeks, Diane stood next to her itching her eyes and yawning; holding Matilda's travelling box.She kept staggering while she stood there, the power of sleep was overpowering her. She rubbed her eyes occasionally, to prevent herself from sleeping or maybe fall while dozing off.“Hmmm?”Diane grunted and opened her eyes, when she felt a gentle touch on her hand. She was already fast asleep while standing.Matilda laughed and covered her mouth, to prevent waking Niki up. She held her stomach and squatted, still laughing so hard.“It's not that funny”“Oh it is. I should have opened my Snapchat and kept a memory of this”“You wouldn't dare”

    The thunderstorm grew heavier, the tapping sound of the raindrops on the window were so loud.Jaden held the baton with a firm grip, his veins were already popping out from his hands.The shadow moved towards the light switch, and Jaden moved forward but not very close, still trying to figure out who it was in the dark of the night.The brightness from the light made Jaden look away and closed his eyes, he let out a groan as the light penetrated into his eyes.A few seconds had already passed, before Jaden finally opened his eyes. His vision was still blurry, but he could see who the stranger was.Jaden sighed and shook his head, he dropped the baton and ran his hands through his hair.“Dad, really? I thought someone broke into the house. When did you get back?”Mr Brooks chuckled and with his hands behind his back, he walked to where Jaden stood and placed his hand on his shoulder.“You miss your old man that much, huh?”Jaden slightly brushed his father's hands off his shoulder at t

    Tom dodged the throw and after a few seconds he winced in pain, he sucked in breath and closed his eyes.He placed his right hand over his face where the glass went past, feeling a jelly like liquid in between his fingers.Tom pulled his hand away from his face slowly, like he was being controlled. He looked at his hand, to see what that liquid was.It was just his sweat, he sighed and closed his eyes, he thought he had gotten injured from Tiana throwing a glass at him.Tiana's hands were shaking where she stood, the whole anger in her had evaporated at the thought of her injuring Tom with a broken glass.“Tom, are you okay?

She took his face in her hands, searching and turning his face in different directions.He removed her hands from his face, and pushed it away.
