The following day, Henry planned to cheer Nathan first. He shopped in the market and bought something to cook. A glass of wine and whiskey were the usual thing they did when they were teenagers. After, he can assure that Nathan will be fine. He'll ask Kimberly on a date and hope it will turn out great!
He drives to Nathan's apartment; there is nowhere he'll go after breaking his heart but inside his room. They have a duplicate key to each other's house as best friends. He went to the kitchen and put down the grocery; his so sure that Nathan was in his room, sleeping and drunk as always!
Opening the door, he saw clothes scattered on the floor. He laughs a little.
"I thought he gonna' kill himself in pain, but I think he'll do it, in the other way!" He murmured.
Kimberly can't deny it. She's glad at how Nathan stared at her. It's pretty obvious; he's jealous! She smiled widely and pushed him to bed. She then sat on his abdomen like a flirting, seducing, tempting woman. Nathan was shocked, this was the first time she had done it, and he was speechless, unable to react."Honey, now you're jealous!" She teased him, doing the same thing he had done earlier. But instead of moving away, Nathan grabs her waist, pressing her closer. Then kissed her so sweetly with intensity and aggressiveness while touching, smoothing every part of her until they switched places and started to get on fire with a state of longing again."Nathan, Henry is outside, remember?" She tried to push him. She wants him but doesn't like the idea that Henry might enter the room again.
After a few moments, Kimberly wore one of the dresses Nathan bought. She looks gorgeous whenever she fixes herself and becomes so feminine. She sat beside Nathan."Hey, I'm sorry about earlier, but I didn't see a thing." Henry quickly apologize. He must pretend that his okay; being broken for the first time makes him feel stupid."Why did you enter the room without permission?" Kimberly gravely asks without glancing at him."Kimberly, Henry thought ____" Nathan turned to her to explain, but Henry spoke for himself."I was about to cheer up my best friend because I knew he'll get depressed in telling you the truth." Kimberly finally looked at Henry."It's just t
Henry fell asleep on the couch when Nathan's father arrived."Dad, come in." He opens the door."Where's Kimberly?""She inside. I'll call her. ""Kimberly?" Nathan called as he entered the bedroom."Honey, where are you?" He checked the bathroom, but she was nowhere to be found."Nathan." Kimberly quietly calls behind the shelves."What are you doing there?" Nathan walks closer to her."Perhaps meeting your father is not a good idea. He might disagree with me like Doctor Henry. For sure, he will
"This is why you're gone for a week?" Nathan asks his father while holding the document."Didn't I tell you that I'll fix everything?""So all this time, you knew it. Why didn't you tell me then?" He was a bit mad."I want to ensure you are serious about Xander's daughter! That it was not a playing thing like you did every night! Going out with different women! Or should I precisely say, prostitutes!" His father was mocking him, making him feel guilty, unable to control his temper again and shout."Shut up, dad!" But Kimberly quickly holds his arm."Nathan..." She holds him tighter."Kimberly, if this idio
Nathan trusts Henry so much that he doesn't think twice about telling him everything. All about his conversation with Kimberly's mother as they went into his office. "You're lucky they were both nice!" Henry's reaction is the same as always. It favors him well whenever Nathan asks his opinion. "Please, I'm asking you to make it possible! Mrs. Aston must survive the operation." Nathan was seriously looking at him. "Even I and all the staff want her to survive. Let's hope and pray more!" "Yes. Definitely, yes." They left Henry's office and rode an elevator. "So, you'll arrange the wedding sooner?" Henry asked with another twinge in his heart. "Yes. And you'll be my best man, okay!" "Of course." Henry had no other words to say. He's been trying to entirely forget his feeling about Kimberly as hard as he can! "I should be going. I have a lot of patients to attend to." "Okay, thanks, bro!" As they went out of the elevator, Kimberly was outside, waiting. "Nathan?" She was surprise
"So, you visit my dad every year?" Kimberly asks Nathan as they travel back."Ya, since we transferred here.""I'm sure you cried a lot.""Yes, I was shocked, and I didn't know he had a family right then.""I have no memories of him.""How did you know Uncle Steve was not your real father?""Well, I remember calling him dad when I was younger. But when I was in eighth grade, he was so mad at me, yelling that I must not call him Dad because he was not my father. When I asked mom, she cried and told me my real father died in an accident when I was 3.""That's it.""Yes, she never mentioned him again until Uncle Steve died. I learned that my dad was a great chef, having the restaurant named after him. Will and Grill Restaurant, that's what I thought.""Kimberly.""Why?""Do you want the restaurant back?" She looked at his puzzle."What do you mean?""Do you want me to buy the restaurant?" He means, but she laughs loud."Hey, I'm serious.""How would you do that? It's impossible! I have n
Then he thought of calling Henry."What?" Henry answered, a bit upset; he just napped."What happened to Kimberly's mother?" He sounds alarmed."Are you insane, Nathan? You were just here an hour ago, and you saw her, talked to her, and now you're asking me again? You know what! I'm taking a little nap, and you are distu___" Henry's tone was louder."Henry, Kimberly just called me, and she's with Andy. I heard him shouting at her." Nathan interrupted."Andy?" He repeats."You know him?""Of course, he is always here accompanying Mrs. Aston every night. He's the adopted son." Henry rose. What he heard from Nathan was something interesting."I'm worried, I heard them shouting at each other, and they were on their way to the hospital, so I thought there was something wrong ___.""You're overreacting; they were always like that.""What do you mean?""I always witnessed that cat and dog fight of them whenever they are here.""Really?" Nathan sounds suspicious."Don't tell me you're jealous
The preparation for Mrs. Aston's operation had been finalized. Kimberly and Nathan are waiting in her room for the doctor's advice to transfer her to the operating room."Mom, you'll be fine, right?" Kimberly asked worriedly."I'll be alright." Her mother smiled."Kimberly! Dr. Rebecca needs you." The nurse said."You go ahead. I'll talk to mom first." Nathan was at her side, pressed her palm, and stayed in the room."Mom, Sophia." He started."I told you, I will try my best." Mrs. Aston rubbed his hand."Here, Uncle Xander gave this to me when I was sick; he'll guide you." Nathan placed a crucifix necklace onto her hand."You still have this?""I've been keeping that since I was younger.""You respect Xander a lot." She cried weakly with tears."Yes, so much, and I want to fulfill what I promise him. I'll protect and love your daughter." Nathan seriously said."Xander's most price possession was only Kimberly. He was about to leave me, but when I told him I was pregnant, he stayed an
"I'm not a God, Kimberly." He was frustrated."But you should at least wait for me to wake before you buried her..." she insists."It was A____" Nathan paused as he thought it would be better if she didn't learn that it was Andy who decided it until she gave birth. He don't want her to get mad at Andy with her condition right now. "Sorry... but it's been a week, your mom suffered for almost six years... I just thought that it was not right to let her suffer more." Nathan still took all the responsibility in blaming himself for everything that happened."I hate you for doing that! I hate you because you didn't give me the chance to mourn for my mom." Kimberly was a bit mad."Sorry..." he repeated."If only my first customer in the pub house was not wealthy as you...I guess it will be easy for me to accept that mom died because of another reason... if you haven't found me that rainy night with those guys who paid for me ___" she speaks in pain more.
They were both quiet as they left alone. Kimberly's eyes are on the floor while Nathan stares at her feeling so hurt and guilty."Where are the divorce papers?" she asked still not looking at his face."Here" he handed to her the envelope."Where would I sign?""Kimberly, why don't we go out for dinner first?" Nathan changed the topic."Sorry, but I can't go anywhere else... the doctor advice me to stay in bed." She refused/"I'll just call for delivery, what do you want to eat?" he offered."Nothing... thank you, is this where I sign?" she repeated the question."You should eat first." He insists."Please!" her tone raised and finally glance at his sad eyes that weaken her as tears fell suddenly on her cheeks."Kimberly..." Nathan kneels down in front of her."Why? Why did you choose her? You said you'll wait__" she cried."What do you mean?" Nathan strokes her face, wiping her tears."
"How are you? Did you visit her?" Henry started."I can't. I must obey Doctor Isaac, it's for Kimberly sake." Nathan shakes head while staring nowhere."I don't think so." Henry disagreed so Nathan glance at him."She's so mad at me Henry...giving back everything I gave her." Nathan sighed."How about your kidney? Did you tell her about it? Can she bring it back?" Henry retorted."Henry___" Nathan was surprised, he almost forget about it."C'mon Nathan, she just can't leave you... yes you're an idiot but you almost gave everything only for her." He insists."It's because I love her... I love her all my life... I've never love anyone else like this before__" Nathan said sadly."I know, that's why I want you to visit Kimberly... you deserve to be with her...you just need to explain your side.""But how about Andy?""You don't have to say anything about Andy...just tell her about the charitable institution was only you and y
After injecting sedative on Kimberly she fall back to sleep and Andy started asking Henry about Kimberly's condition. But before he could speak Nathan was calling him over the phone."See you at my office." He said. "It's Nathan and he was asking the same question. Let's go." He added and they walk back to his office."What happened Henry?" Nathan quickly ask as they enter the room."We need to call back the Psychiatrist. Perhaps it's the ASD symptoms. All I can say right now is she still not in good shape." Henry speaks sadly."But yesterday were okay. She even asked me to sleep beside her." Nathan asked."Yes, yesterday was a miracle but as you can see a while ago it's different... she was still scared of you. The trauma is still right there." Henry explained."So what should we do?" Andy asked."Like I said she need to see the Psychiatrist again, it's the best way we can do now." Henry answered."But what if I tell her the t
Knock knock knock"Excuse me Sir Nathan." Amy enters the room. "Sir your ticket to Manchester arrived." She politely said."Cancel the flight." Nathan commanded. "Are you guys coming with me?" He turned to Henry and Andy."Thank you." Andy offers his hand to Nathan. "Brother." He added."I'll make up to you for all the trouble I caused you...one day... because right now, she needs us." Nathan politely answered and take Andy's hand shake."Finally." Henry blurred out."I'll pick up your mom first, will just follow you at the hospital." Mr. Conner said.The three of them decided to ride on Henry's car together."Andy, I'm curious about what happen to the calling card Mr. Xander gave you? Did you find the person?" Henry asked as he was driving the car. Andy was at the backseat while Nathan glance at Henry since he was quiet beside him."I did my best to contact the person until I memorize the numbers, however I got tired of
Kimberly gently open her eyes as the sun rise and the rays gently touches her skin.."WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!?" she shouted terrifying both Andy and Nathan."What happened Kimberly?" Nathan was shocked and about to reach her as she was standing near the window."DON'T COME NEAR ME!" she shouted again."Kimberly?!' Andy run quickly towards her."Andy... why is he here? He's a monster..." she cried and embraced him tightly."What's happening?" the door open and it was Henry and Meagan."Why is he here? I don't want to see him Andy? I don't want to see him!?" she continued now shaking."Nathan, I think you should go." Henry suggested."But..." Nathan was still puzzled on the way Kimberly act."But Doctor Henry__" even Andy was confused but Henry shakes his head to stop him from talking."Leave now, Nathan." Henry said in command and all Nathan could do is to sighed."Give her sedative." Henry whispered

"Dad?!" Nathan turned to his father with a questioning stare."Nathan, perhaps you were really young when you are with Xander... that you didn't notice the resemblance..." his father speaks in pain. "The first time I met Andy at the hospital I thought Xander was reincarnated, he look exactly like him... a carbon copy..." his father explain."Does Kimberly knows about this?" Nathan asked to Andy."Yes, I threaten her before you got married that I will tell mom the truth about my identity___" Andy said but Nathan interrupts."Why didn't she tell me? She knew how jealous I am to you." Nathan felt unease."Kimberly wanted Mom first to know... we already talk about it when she get back alone from your honeymoon." Andy explained."But Jesebelle gets in the way and she run to Mrs. Aston and tell everything." Henry speaks again. "But I don't think that the news will cause Mrs. Aston's heart attack... Since it involve her ex-husband whom she truly lo
"Nathan___" Henry speaks again but Nathan quickly dial his phone."I need security, NOW!" he shouted."For heaven sake Nathan, would you please listen?!" Henry said almost shouting."Listen! You have no idea what happen__" but Nathan didn't stop shouting."I know! I already knew!" Henry shouted back."So you're on his side now ha! Henry?" Nathan glared."Sir Nathan?" then there's a knock at the door."Take this man out!" Nathan commanded at the guard pointing at Andy."No! Let go off me!" Andy struggled. "I just wanted to talk!" he added."What's going on here?" Mr. Conner senior came out as the commotion was very loud."Uncle, I'm glad you came." Henry felt a bit ease."Let go off him." Mr. Conner order as he saw Andy struggling with the security."So here we go again... you won't listen to me Dad even if I want that shit out of here!" Nathan mocked."Watch your word Nathan!' his father warne
