"Christian!" I woke up to Jonathan's voice and jumped off the bed with a bad headache. "That was the worst.Reality hit me right away, flashes of the moments before I passed out scrambled in front of my eyes like crazy visuals. I panicked and looked around to find her.But she was nowhere.Ivanna was nowhere around me.Was it all a dream?Fuck, no! That was impossible. All that I felt couldn't be a mere dream.Then where was she?"Stop looking for her," Serena banged inside. "We already searched the entire club to find the girl with you"I was left dumbfounded. Did she just leave?Without even meeting me for once?"Grab it, man," Jonathan threw the shirt on my face. "We're already said. I have talked to Mr Xiang. He's ready to postpone the presentation. If we don't leave right now, there will be a blunder"My head was blank right then. I could feel nothing but her aroma all over my body.She was real, so fr

IreneMy heart throbs when I walk into the living room and the clock clicks on its way.What the—It's still 8 pm. Why is the clock in the bedroom showing 2? Ridiculous.My fear decreases a bit and I curse myself for being so absent-minded. How can I even think it's midnight?The doorbell rings again. This time it seems like someone is hammering on the doorbell. I just got home this afternoon and kept lying on my bed all day. It irks the hell out of me. As I take slow steps the person starts knocking on the door in full force. Damn!Who's this crazy person?I gulp down and reach the door, peeking through the peephole. Colton! My guess was right. What the hell does he want now? Cold shivers run across my body as I watch him clenching his jaw at the door. "Miss Rozario, I know you're standing right there. It'll be

IvannaI reach the firm after the shift is over. My head is aching and my eyes are burning terribly due to crying. I look at the screen of my phone to see if there's any call or message from Christian. He just left like this. He did this before, he never got so furious at me. Even though I'm still mad at his behaviour, I can't help messaging him. "I'm sorry!" I type and send it. I can't handle his ruthlessness. I'm not used to it. He has made it so hurtful. The butler opens the door for me and I get down, walking towards the building. The entrance is empty too. As I walk through the empty corridor to reach Quinn's cabin, an unknown girl walks up to me.Who's she? At this hour?"Hello", she beams. "Hello", I hesitate. "You—""It's Syeda Ayesha. You can call me Ayesha", she smiles. I shake hands with her."Ivanna Scott. Are you new here?""Oh, yeah. I just joined yesterday. How are you feeling now? I heard Jacob talking a

IvannaIt takes me a while to function my brain. I clutch the files tightly, driving my eyes away. Why is he in Quinn's cabin? In fact, why is he in the firm?Tina told me he wouldn't be here. It feels so wrong suddenly. Christian literally asked me not to meet Adrian and here I'm violating this in just an hour.I can't change it now. But I can stop things here right away. Looking up, I find Adrian still gazing at me as if he's furious about something. Did Tina tell him about my resignation?"It's— Quinn's cabin," I say, breaking the silence."And it's my firm," he gasps, leaning over the table, his cold eyes darting on me."I mean to say, I was about to meet Quinn and Tina told me she would be here," I stammer."Well, Quinn would be here if I wasn't available. Since I'm here, you might not want her"He walks towards me and stops, keeping a distance, tucking his hands into his pocket.

Ivanna "I love Christian. I love my husband and this is enough for me not to divorce him"I said it. I just said it out of nowhere. Even a second ago, I didn't know what I was going to say but my heart spoke out. It stood up for the feeling I was resisting for months. It only tells the truth. I love him so much. So damn much that it stings when I think of him going away from me. Adrian keeps staring at me with no reaction in his eyes. Until now, I respected his feelings but now I won't. Why should I respect his feelings when he can't respect mine? He keeps insulting my marriage. He keeps insulting Christian and I'm definitely not so kind as to let it go. "But you might need more reasons. Right? Then hear me out," I groan. "This marriage is not an adjustment. It's my choice. I'm not forced to stay in this marriage but I want to. It's my decision. And you should keep your fucking assumptions to y

ChristianMy head feels better now and I think of making a call to Ivanna. She must have cried a lot after I left. After I'm done venting out all my frustration to Kane, my brain starts functioning properly and I realise what a big blunder I have created. I shouted at her for no reason and ill-behaved with her. That's so damn mean of me. I dial her number and it rings. It keeps ringing and she doesn't pick up. "Darn it!" I shrug. "What happened?" Kane asks. "She's not picking up my call. Must be too mad at me," I scoff. "But she messaged me a while ago"I get a bit confused. If she was apologising to me just an hour ago, how can she not pick up my call? It gets me worried and I make a call to Mrs Fisher."You should have done something about Adrian first," Kane scoffs. "Ivanna still doesn't know his reality"Anger settles down in my veins again with that bastard's name."I'll definitely handle that bastard. He doesn't know

Kane What's wrong with Emily? I call her again and again but she doesn't pick up. She has been quite cold with me after that day. We didn't talk properly, except for work. Even though I didn't like it, I had to accept that behaviour. Definitely, no one likes to be rejected indirectly. Only if it was not about Ivanna, I would let it go and not disturb her with a bunch of calls. I believe she also doesn't know anything about Ivanna's disappearance. Otherwise, she would be the one to contact us first. I reach her apartment and ring the doorbell. I hear her footsteps at the door. But she doesn't open it for a long thirty seconds. "Emily, you know it's me. Can you please open the door? It's important," I shrug. Just then, I hear the knob twisting. She opens the door with a grumpy look and she's in a completely different look with an oversized top and shorts, messy hairs spread all over her face. I should not be noticing her in such det

Christian"Mr Scott, I'll suggest you get back home. It's a missing case and sometimes— well, most of the time, it's not possible to find out the missing one in a few hours. You should go home until we look for Mrs Scott," the senior officer says confidently until I look back at him. Nervous enough, he puts his gaze down and sighs, realising he shouldn't be saying such a thing I'm never gonna do. I'm not among those who just file a missing complaint and sleep peacefully at home for days. I love that woman more than my life. "I'm not getting back home without her. Do you get that?" I seeth. "You don't need to give me such foolish advice""Christian!" Kane arrives back on the highway along with Emily. It's enough for me to know that Ivanna didn't go to Emily's place either. Where are you hiding, Iv? I know you always hide yourself when you don't wanna face anyone. But it's being too

ChristianMy mind can't get off the flashes of bruises on Ivanna's skin. It has been keeping me anxious from the moment I saw those marks. For heaven's sake, I never held her even a bit roughly and that fucker could dare to have that guts of not only touching her but hurting her. While roaming silently outside the hospital's cabin, I strive to calm down as much as I can. Nonetheless, each time I look through the window, I can't help panicking inside. It's been a while since I brought her to the hospital. She was just released from the hospital a few days ago!I can't believe in less than a month she had to go through some crap again."Christian," Kane appears there, glancing at the window for once. "Is the doctor still checking up?""Yeah. I don't know why it's taking so long," I say out of frustration and look back at him. "Where's that jerk?""Getting treated before he's put into th

JohnGetting married in the 50s isn't that strange anymore. But for me, it was— for a man who believed his marriage would last forever and then believed he would never marry again. I stood before the mirror as Ryan helped other groomsmen with their last fit."You all look pretty handsome. Ready to leave. But I wish Kevin had that time to get a good fit. Your suit sucks!""I feel better anyway", Kevin snarls. I chuckle while fixing my bow tie, watching my sons in their 20s still fighting like toddlers. It's been a blessing for me to have a family which didn't break even after the biggest disaster. And maybe it was because, in our family, it had always been us. Me and my two boys. Their mother wasn't there. The death was just a formality. I didn't really change that much. My boys were happier than ever after she died. It's really mean of me to think that way but it was the truth. They were traumatised because they were kids. As they grew up, I realised they had a better and healthier

Tiffany Emery runs to Sebastian. "Da—dy"And he immediately drives his eyes down and takes her in his arms. They both look at me lovingly. Now, I don't feel bad about pushing the wedding. This feeling would not be the same if we got married before Emery came. Ryan and Kevin walk beside me to the aisle. I wanted them to do this honour because if there's anyone in this world I still love more than Sebastian and Emery, My eyes become teary as I walk to them. Sebastian spreads his arm at me and I immediately dig into his chest.He leans closer to my ear."My beautiful bride"I smile against his chest and look up. He takes my hand and leads me to the centre. I take a look at every one. John, Mr Ryder, Gary, Myra, Christian, Ivanna and the recent teenager Chrisanna. Everything feels so complete and beautiful. Mr Ryder comes and takes Emery from Sebastian even though she doesn't wanna go. With the pastor's words, Sebastian and I looked into each other's eyes deeply. "I, Sebastian Ry

TiffanyI can't figure out how to react and what it's all about because I don't wanna assume anything unreasonable. He's on his knees with a damn ring.It means— God! I can't— comprehend it. My eyes flutter open at his handsome face. No words come out of my mouth. I'm at a loss of words."I know you're shocked! And I'm sorry if I scared you with this sudden—" he doesn't complete, yet keeps his eyes straight into mine. "But I couldn't keep this longer inside me, Tiffany. I had known a long time ago that I needed you in my life. Forever! And I'm not scared to ask you that—"With that pause, my heartbeat stops and my entire body shivers when I wait for him to complete."Will you marry me?" I feel goosebumps littering all over me with those words. Did he really ask me for marriage? It takes me a while to process. His eyes are full of fear and hope and I'm left in shock. Never in my wildest dreams, I had imagined he would propose to me. I hear some people around cheering up and root

TiffanyTime indeed flies like air and it happened in my case in a better way. In the best way, actually. I started my job in the daycare centre with all the lovely kids around which made my life less monotonous after Ryan and Kevin left. They are doing good in their new school and John has also settled into his new office over there. I and Sebastian balanced our life beautifully, supporting each other. As days and weeks passed, our love grew stronger. Among everything, I was happy with the fact that I have my identity now. A good identity. My salary doubled in just three months after joining for my good service and the way all the kids related to me. In a year, I was promoted to manager of the daycare centre, life couldn't be any less beautiful. It's been two years, I and Sebastian are together and we are living our best life. We hardly argued and most of the time it was just silly. He loves to tease me and I go along with it. Sebastian has become the most demanding lawyer in the

TiffanyWe spent the last two days painting the house and I can't describe how beautiful it came out. We did some changes like replacing the furniture and donating some. If everything goes well, I'll be here in less than three days.John has finished all the preparations in Hong Kong and he's leaving the day after we decided to move in. It all happened so fast but I'm glad that John is recovering. It's been eight months since the tragedy and I know it's gonna take years for him to overcome this. I'm happy for him but I would be happier if there was any chance that he finds someone to love him as much as all of us found a person to love.It sucks and I hate the fact that all his life he never found someone like that.I and Sebastian carry the portrayal I had in my room for years. It's a huge one and Sebastian suggested we should place it in the living room because it's beautiful. It's a painting I got from an art summit years back, featuring a mother and her small daughter, surviving

Sebastian"Really, Sebastian? I have never seen you this excited before", Georgia says as I show her some themes I'm confused with and I end up telling her the whole plan. "Isn't it something to be excited about?" I blurt out. "She's moving in with me. Isn't it amazing? People can't even go past dating and we are really moving in!" I tell her and she smiles wider, sitting in front of my desk."That's true", she says. "I'm just wondering what you would do once you guys announce the marriage!" she laughs but on a serious note, it makes my heart stop for a while.She pauses, looking at me. "Sorry. I should not have said that?"I chuckle. "Nah! Nothing like that. I just spaced out when you talked about marriage""Ah! So, that means you're thinking about it", she leans to the desk. I scratch the back of my head with an awkward smile. "I could marry her the moment I saw her! But hell! I'm not repeating any mistakes from the past. Maybe, I'll wait for a while before proposing to her. And t

Tiffany We stop by the nursery. It's one of the biggest nurseries in the city which I can completely believe by the way it looks. The boys run into the green surrounding and I and Sebastian slowly walk to see the plants. One of the workers accompany us, showing us all the kinds of plants we could use for decor. "I want the real ones", he says as I scan those plants which need no sunlight. They would be perfect for indoors."These are real ones too. These are just indoors", I say, watching his expression change. "But I still don't find the realness in them. You can take these. I'll look for others", he walks away to find his REAL plants as I shake my head at him in disbelief.We load all the plants we have got for the decor and Ryan and Kevin took two small ones to plant in the yard. Even though they won't be staying here, they wish to see it all grown up when they would occasionally visit. After that, we stop by a restaurant to have lunch. Surprisingly, Sebastian didn't suggest h

Tiffany We talked a lot today. I'm glad that I took this whole day out for him because we needed to have this conversation. I have finally decided to move in with him. Nonetheless, it'll come with more challenges and I'm ready for it. This decision will not only make our relationship stronger but also give me a world of my own. I can't wait to finally live my life in my own conditions and happiness. Sebastian asked me if he could help me anyway. But I refused to take any help from him as I did with John. It's my call to explore and look for opportunities which I'll be doing from today. I'm thinking about having a conversation with John again. I want him to change his decision of holding back until I settle down. Because that's impossible. I'll need a lot of time to clean the mess and organise my life and I think I'll surely do it if I have Sebastian.I'm glad that Sebastian understood me and more than that he trusted me enough. I'm scrolling through my phone to research the jobs I t
