Brent reintroduced her to me saying that her name was Alexa and she was the daughter of his father's friend who was also their business partner. They both grew up together and she always had been like a sister to him. As Brent was introducing her, she held Brent arm and was being a bit too touchy. I didn't like it. I was displeased by the way she was behaving. She was definitely trying to tell me that she was more close to him than me. When Brent called her his little sister, she was clearly displeased by hearing it.
I was constantly staring at their arms and was waiting for Brent to remove her arm from his. But to Brent she was a kid and he didn't even mind it. I knew Brent had such a simple and naive heart but I was raised among many hardships and was clearly able to judge people from their expressions and body languages.
I smiled and didn't express my dislike in front of her. I walked towards her and hugged her so that she could leave Brent's arm.
After
I told Brent that I saw Alexa at the reception when I was coming here and she was called by a gynaecologist for her appointment. As soon as the nurse called her, her color turned pale. Also, I saw Ben and Alexa together in a hospital and Ben even came towards me to talk. I was afraid that Alexa might already know my real name and also I didn't mention mother illness in front of her at all. I had no idea how she came to know about mother. She told me that she was here in the hospital for her own checkup. Brent carefully listened to the whole thing and also got confused.We had no idea whether Alexa really knew about my real identity or not.While we were still talking, Alexa came out of the room and called Brent. "Brent! Aunty wants you two to come inside."Brent asked me to go inside and called Alexa outside to have a chat. It was a perfect moment to clear our doubts. I went inside the room and Alexa ran towards Brent.Brent first asked her what she
Our days together were getting happier with each passing day. Everyday was a new adventure and everyday was a happy day. But our life was so messed up that we knew for sure that this happiness was not going to last for long. We all were working in the same department of the hospital. Our relationship was a secret and only Ben knew that we were dating each other. Brent had no problem in publicly announcing our relationship but I was not ready for the consequences. We had to face everything one day or another but I was not yet ready for it.I and Ben both of us were residents whereas Brent was our senior in the hospital. We all were in the department of neurosurgery. Once our hospital arranged a charity program for orphan kids. I and Ben along with our other colleagues were selected for a stage performance. All the residents had to participate in the event whereas seniors had the option whether they wanted to participate or not.Brent always had a cold image in
The head nurse asked me to call Ben. I had changed my number and was not willing to call Ben from my new number. I looked at Brent in a helpless manner. He took his phone out of his pocket and told the head nurse that he would call Ben.Brent dialled his number. As soon as he dialed his number, Ben also entered the conference room. He entered the conference room and apologized to everyone for being late. The head nurse asked him the reason for his tardiness. He told her that his patient had an emergency so he had to check him first. He sat down on his chair and apologized again. Brent told him that it was okay. Being doctors, our patients matter more than anything else. The meeting started. First of all, all of us were asked to select a Disney story to act upon. The head nurse had already shortlisted a few stories. She wanted us to select
With each passing day, the performance day was getting closer and closer and we were busy preparing for our roles along with the hard working hours. We all planned to meet in the auditorium after our working hours to practice the skit. The distance between me and Ben started to decrease with each passing day and we once again became good friends. Brent kept on silently observing our practice everyday. He did not opt for acting. Instead, He participated as a host of the program. Finally, the day of the skit came. We all reached the destined location before the time and started to get ready. Brent was dressed up in a white suit and was looking like a prince. No female could take her eyes off Brent. He was surrounded by many pretty and young girls and every female was asking the same question, " Is that handsome man still single?"I couldn't hold my jealousy. Everyone had an evil eye on my husband. How could I stay calm in such a situation? Even some girls were asking me to intr
Brent started to clean the wound for Ben and I sat there in case if they need any kind of help. I was so please to know that although Brent and Ben were not on good terms but he still helped him in his hard time. A true nature of a human being is revealed through these small acts of kindness. Ben was also not in the bad mood. I always thought that both of them would kill each other, if they were to be left alone but on the contrary, both of them seemed to be getting along each other. None of them ever had the intention of hurting each other but it was obvious that both of them were competing for me. I was still not sure about what actually was going on in Ben's head. Whether he still had feelings for me or did he move on? There were endless questions going on inside my head.While I was still submerged into my thoughts, Brent asked me to pass him the scissors. I was totally spaced out and didn't heard it. He once again asked me but I was still busy interpreting the complex re
Officer Harris was the nicest person that I met in a long time. He offered his help to me. He took me to the costume room and asked me to choose a costume from some extra dresses. I was so relieved to see a whole cupboard filled with dresses. "Office Harris! Thank you so much. You have no idea how badly I was looking for a costume. We have been preparing for this skit for a long time. I thought today's event would be ruined." Officer Harris carefully kept on listening to my useless talk. He had a smile on his face as if he was enjoying chatting with me. "Linda! You look prettiest even in this torn dress. I believe meeting you as an officer assigned to your case was a fate and fate keeps on bringing us in front of each other. Nature must be pointing towards each other."I couldn't understand what he was actually trying to say. I was standing in front of him, not knowing what to say. The complete silence surrounded us as I had no reply. He also realized that it was gettin
It was such a huge scene. We had no idea how we were going to deal with this. I stood there in daze trying to figure out a way. All of the other actors also stood still waiting for the next step. Ben who was standing behind the curtains luckily came for our rescue. He pulled the curtains and saved us from further embarrassment. As soon as the curtains fell down, I got away from Brent. The other ladies that were participating along with us were quites mesmerized by his looks and were enjoying the scene. I, on the other hand was getting jealous as my man was being watched by many ladies. I looked around for anything to cover him and luckily found a cape on the bench nearby. I went towards the bench to pick up the cape. Ben was also sitting on the same bench. When Brent saw me going towards the bench, he thought that I was going towards Ben so he followed me and held me from my hand. I wasn't expecting that Brent didn't notice my jealousy. Before I could say anything, he pulled me towa
It was getting late and there was no sign of any public transport. Officer Harris asked me again to join him but I was reluctant to ask him to drive me home. Incase, Brent saw him and got jealous, things would become more troublesome for me. But I was scared to travel alone at that hour. Also, I should have been the one to get mad as Brent left me alone on the street and didn't even text to inform me about anything. He made a joke out of me. Everyone standing there knew that he stood me up. It must be his way to take out his jealousy. But still leaving one's own wife on the street at midnight was a bit too much. I was immersed in my thoughts when officer Harris once again honked his car and asked me to get in.I no longer rejected his kindness and accepted his help. What possibly could have gone wrong. Officer Harris started the car. We left the hotel. I was still calling on Brent's number, hoping that he was alright.Officer Harris, while driving, was comp
