Sylvester was sitting in his living room, sipping on a glass of whiskey, when he heard a knock on the door. He glanced at the clock; it was just past eight in the evening. He wasn't expecting anyone, but he got up and opened the door to find his old friend, Marcus, standing there.

"Marcus! What a surprise. You didn't tell me you are coming." Sylvester said, stepping aside to let him in. "You can come in."

Marcus walked in. "I said let me drop by and catch up. It's been a while."

Sylvester nodded, closing the door behind him. "Yeah, it has. Make yourself comfortable."

They settled down on the living room, and Sylvester handed Marcus a cup of whiskey. "So, what's new with you? I Heard you have been busy with some big plans."

Sylvester smirked and took a sip of his drink before replying him. "You could say that. I've been working on something... something interesting."

Marcus raised an eyebrow. "Oh? What is that?"

Sylvester leaned back, a confident glint in his eye. "You re

    Sylvester arrived at Anabel's company and asked her to join him in his car. She hesitated for some moments before she got in. On their way to the restaurant, they chatted about work and the latest developments in the company. The restaurant was a cozy, upscale place with dim lighting and a romantic ambiance. Sylvester had reserved a private table by the window, offering a stunning view of the city skyline. When they settled into their seats, a waiter approached to take their orders. Once their meals were ordered, Sylvester leaned forward with his eyes fixed on Anabel. "I'm really happy you agreed to come out tonight. I know you've been under a lot of stress lately." Anabel smiled, but there was a hint of sadness in her eyes. "Thank you, Sylvester. I appreciate it. It's been a tough few days." Sylvester reached across the table, gently taking her hand in his. "It's normal, everything comes with challenges. If you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here for you. You don't have to g

She knew all about Sylvester and Anabel.Sylvester got up and opened the door. He wasn't surprised when he saw Vanessa standing there with a mischievous smile on her face.

"How did it go with Anabel?"Sylvester closed the door behind her and led her to the living room. "It went better than I even expected. We had a nice dinner, and she opened up to me about her pregnancy and divorce. I pretended to be surprised and told her it didn't change how I felt about her.""Oh, poor Anabel. She must be so desperate for someone to care about her." Vanessa laughed. "And

    "Hello, Sylvester. I guess you are in your house now." Anabel asked."Yeah, just relaxing." Sylvester replied. "That's nice. I said let me know if you have gotten home, and also thank you for the dinner. I had a good time with you, despite everything that happened. I like your vibe." Sylvester smiled before responding back. "I'm happy to hear that, Miss Anabel. I enjoyed our time together as well." Vanessa rolled her eyes and stifled her potential laugh, before mouthing the words "poor Anabel" with a mocking expression. Sylvester shot her with a warning look, but she just grinned and snuggled closer to him, clearly amused by the situation. "I really appreciate your support, Sylvester." Anabel continued. "It means a lot to me, especially with everything that had been going on." "I'm here for you, no matter what. You can always count on me. What are we friends for?"

    On Friday morning, Anabel was eating her cookies and watching one of her favorite TV programs when she heard a knock on the door. "Who is there?" She asked but didn't get any response. She sat up and headed towards the door to check who was that. Anabel was overjoyed when she saw her best friend, Stacey, standing in the doorway."Stacey!" Anabel exclaimed and rushed forward to envelop her best friend in a tight hug. "I've missed you so much." "I've missed you too, Anabel." Stacey replied with her eyes sparkling with excitement. Anabel was very happy to see her best friend after what felt like an eternity. Stacey had just completed her BSc program in New York, and Anabel had been eagerly waiting for her return. "You didn't tell me you will show up today." Anabel said. "I wasn't expecting you.""I want it to be a surprise." She laughed."You look great!" Anabel stared down at her.

    A few minutes later, Jethro returned, this time with a shirt on, carrying a tray of drinks. He set it down on the coffee table and took a seat across from Stacey. "So, Stacey, how was New York?" He asked."It was incredible," Stacey replied. This time, her initial shyness was fading. "I learned a lot, both academically and personally."Jethro nodded. "I can imagine. It's a big change from here. You must have had some amazing friends and experiences.""I did," Stacey replied, smiling. "But I also missed home. It's good to be back."Jethro leaned back in his chair. "You know, you have changed a lot since I last saw you. You have become even more beautiful."Stacey's cheeks flushed a deep red. "Thank you, Jethro." Deep down, she wanted to return the comment and tell him how handsome he was looking, but she couldn't."It's just the truth," Jethro said casually. "Your boyfriend must be lucky.""Yeah, but he broke up with me when I told him I would be traveling back to my country." Stacey re

    Anabel came back early as she promised. Stacey woke up once she heard the door open. She asked Anabel about her day, and she began to recount her activities in the office. A few minutes later, they were in the kitchen. Anabel was cooking while Stacey was helping. Some moments later, Anabel's mother showed up in the kitchen. She heard voices and decided to check who that was. She was surprised when she saw Stacey."Oh Stacey! You are back!" She exclaimed."Yes, ma. I arrived this morning.""That's nice. Welcome back." "Thank you, ma'am." She exchanged greetings with Anabel before retiring back to her bedroom. "Why don't you employ a house help? Why do you choose to stress yourself?" Stacey asked "We don't need them. One of them nearly killed my dad. So since then, we stopped employing maids. We can do the cooking ourselves. It's not a big deal." Anabel explained."It's alright. I respect that." Stacey brought the chicken and spices for her, then slid the garden salad and helped her

    "Oh, sorry. I will go and change now." Stacey said and rushed back to change. Anabel sat up when she entered."Where did you go?" Anabel asked."I heard some noise outside and went to check." Stacey replied and began to unpack her clothes."What are you doing? Are you going somewhere?" Anabel asked.Stacey picked her shirt and her thick green singlet. "I want to join your brother in his gym. He told me to go and change.""Hmmmm. I can see." Stacey smiled."See what?" Stacey asked. She knew what Anabel was trying to say."Nothing.

    "Thanks for the workout, Jethro." Stacey said when they finished working out. "I really enjoyed it.""Anytime, Stacey," Jethro replied. "You are welcome to join me whenever you want."As Stacey left the gym room, she couldn't help but smile. She felt a connection with Jethro. She could tell he likes her too, just that he hasn't confessed his feelings to her. Or maybe it was because of his current girlfriend.She went back to Anabel's room, but she didn't see her. She decided to take her bath before looking for her. She took a quick bath and left the room in search of Anabel. She wandered through the house, looking for Anabel, and finally found her lounging in the sitting room. She has a book in her hands and a relaxed smile on her face."You are here." She sauntered towards her. "I was looking for you."Anabel looked up at her. "Hey, Stacey. I know you enjoyed your workout.""Yeah, it was great." Stacey replied and sat down beside her.

    "Ohhhhh! I understand." Anabel shook her head. "You are really going through a lot.""It's my responsibility. I can't let her die. I will do everything possible to make sure she survives." Sylvester said. As they were talking, Dr. Richard walked in and greeted Anabel."Is he the doctor?" Anabel asked Sylvester."Yeah, he is the one in charge of her." Sylvester replied, and Anabel turned to the doctor and asked. "What is really happening to her?" “Vanessa’s liver is failing, and she needs a transplant as soon as possible. We will replace Vanessa’s failing liver with a healthy donor liver. The procedure is complex and costly, but it’s her only chance. I've told Sylvester what it will cost. If he continues to waste more time, he may lose her.” The doctor said, and she looked at Vanessa. She felt pity for her, then turned to the doctor.“I will cover the cost, whatever it takes. I don't want anything to happen to her.” Anabel said and Sylvester smiled, seeing that everything was going sm

    The next day, Sylvester and Vanessa got prepared and headed to the hospital. The doctor had arranged their room for them. They got to the hospital, and the doctor took them to the room. Each day costs five hundred dollars, and Sylvester paid for four days. Vanessa changed into a gown and lay on the bed. The doctor connected the ICU systems, making it look like she was battling between life and death. "I will call Anabel now." Sylvester said and took a deep breath, then dialed Anabel's number. "Hello, babe." Sylvester greeted just as Anabel picked up the call. "Hi, babe. Good morning." She answered. "How are you doing?" "I....…I'm fine, but." He paused. "But what? Is there any problem?" Anabel asked, concerned. "I don't want to talk about it. I can find a way and handle it." Sylvester said. "Find a way and handle what?" Anabel asked. "Don't worry yourself. I said I will handle it." "You can still tell me. Maybe I can be of help." Anabel insists. "I don't want to be a burden

    "Please, hear us out." Vanessa interjected. "Our future depends on it. It means everything to us." Dr. Richard shook his head. "I can’t condone any form of medical fraud. I don't know who you guys want to exploit money from, but I can't. It goes against everything I stand for, and the hospital management would never support it." Sylvester leaned forward. "We are not asking you to do this for free. We are prepared to compensate you generously for your cooperation." "No amount of money is worth compromising my ethics and risking my career," Dr. Richard replied. "Please leave my office." "It's not what you are thinking. It won't put you into trouble." Vanessa said. "You don't come here and teach me my job. I can't falsify a medical condition." Dr. Richard insists. Vanessa looked at Sylvester, and he nodded, then reached into his pocket and pulled out an envelope. He placed it on the desk in front of Dr. Richard. "Five thousand dollars." He said quietly. "Think about what this kind

    But as Sylvester's hand moved from her neck down to caress her breasts, she gently pulled away."Not now, baby," Anabel whispered, and Sylvester was disappointed. "I just thought...""I know." Anabel replied, placing her right hand on his cheek. "But I want us to take it slow. I enjoy spending time with you like this, talking and laughing. We will have our moments, but just not tonight."Sylvester nodded, trying to mask his disappointed look. "You are right, baby. I just got carried away."Anabel smiled and gave him a reassuring kiss on the cheek. "Thank you for understanding me. Let's just enjoy each other's company."They continued talking, and the initial tension began to dissipate slowly. After a few minutes, Anabel glanced at the time and realized it was getting late. "I should be going home.""I'm hoping you'd stay over today." Sylvester said."Maybe next time." Anabel replied and stood up."Alright," he said, standing up and walking her to the door.Anabel paused for a moment a

    The next time Anabel visited, she brought food for him. She knew how much he would appreciate her cooking and wanted to brighten his day. She knocked on his door, and when he opened it, she was happy to see his smiling face."My baby is here!" He exclaimed and pulled her into a warm embrace. She smiled and held up the bag of food."I brought this for you," she said, walking into the living room and setting the bag on the table."It's like you knew I would be hungry. Thank you very much." "You are welcome." She replied and began to unpack the food."This smells nice. It must be delicious.""Yeah. Anyway, you are about to find out now." She finished and gave him the spoon. "Only one spoon? There is no way I'm going to eat this alone. You are eating with me." He got up from the couch and headed to the kitchen. Before Anabel could adjust on the seat, he showed up with another spoon and a bottle of water."What are you doing? The food is for you." Anabel said."Well, I won't be eating wh

    "Hey, what are you still doing there?" She called her driver, who was still hiding, and they helped Sylvester into the car. Anabel got in, and her driver drove them quickly to the nearest hospital. Once they arrived, Sylvester was taken to the emergency room, where a doctor examined his injuries. The cuts and bruises were minor, but the doctor insisted on cleaning and dressing them to prevent infection. Anabel was sitting beside Sylvester, holding his hands, while he was receiving treatment. She couldn't believe the bravery and selflessness he had shown in rescuing her. It went a long way in reinforcing her belief that Sylvester was someone she could trust and rely on. When the doctor was done, Sylvester was given some painkillers for his aches. "You are my hero, Sylvester. I love you so much." She said in the car as they drove to Sylvester's apartment. When they got to his apartment, Anabel helped him inside and made sure he was comfortable. "Do you have any food, or should I co

    "Let her go!" Anabel looked back and to her greatest shock, it was Sylvester. She was surprised on how he just appeared from nowhere."And who are you to tell me what to do?" The leader asked."The one who can make you regret ever touching her." Sylvester replied."I will give you a chance to leave. This is non of your business man. Unless you want to join her." The leader said."That's my girlfriend and she's coming with me." Sylvester declared. "I won't let you take her.""You called for this young man. I'm not to be blamed." The leader said and turned to his boys. "Waste him." With their weapons on their hands, they began to walk towards Sylvester. Anabel was scared and yelled at Sylvester. "Run! You can't fight them! They will kill you!" She tried to break free from the leader's hand but she couldn't.One of the boys sneered at Sylvester's challenge and launched forward.

Desmond opened the door for Daniella, and they walked together towards the entrance. It was a private hospital and the best in the city. Only the rich families could afford the hospital. They got to the reception desk, where a nurse attended to them. "Good afternoon. How can I help you two today?" She had a warm smile across her face. "Our wedding is coming soon. We are here for a premarital medical test," Desmond answered. "Alright, sir, Please have a seat in the waiting area. The doctor will call you shortly." They went and took a seat at the waiting area.
