Chapter 86Cortex’s POVWe stopped laughing to answer poor Kade“A business partner is someone that you work with and own a business together” I answered him and he nodded, “okay” he said before skipping happily to his chair.“Have you eaten?” I asked him, “I ate a little with grandma but I’m still hungry” he replied“Come with me to the visitors cafeteria to eat” I suggested and he stood up and ran to my side“Let’s goooo” he screamed out and I burst out laughing“Okay, we’ll be back mom” I said to her“Don’t take too long” she replied me and I nodded“I have another story to tell Kade” she said and gave a weak wink at Kade and Kade jumped excitedly, happy to hear that there would be another story waiting for him when he gets back.We went outside with Lina“Your son is so cute” she said to me and I laughed, “he is and I’m lucky to have him” I replied and she squealed“Awwwnn” she said and I just looked at her laughing“Now I want to have a son too” she said and I laughed“You should
Chapter 87Becca’s POVTomorrow, the struggle and journey begins.The frustrations, tomorrow I had to stop entertaining distractions.This was going to be tough but I wasn’t going to give up. ‘Believe’ I said repeatedly to myself before succumbing to slumber.Next morning…..I woke up and I felt like I still wanted to sleep. I was still tired. ‘Ugh why did I sleep so late last night’ I thought to myself, forcing myself to get up.I walked to the bathroom sluggishly, dragging my feet. I needed to go to work today since the weekend would start tomorrow. I had to go, no way I could skip work.I want to keep on being punctual and still give an impression to anyone that i am always early to work.I took my toothpaste and squeezed some on my toothbrush and brushed my teeth and had my bath. I didn’t even have the strength to bath for Kade.Who would even bath for him if not me?I don’t think he would be comfortable with someone else bathing for him. I carried him and undressed him. I dipped
Chapter 87Becca’s POVThe episode ended and I hoped there wasn’t another one but low and behold another episode started.‘I’m tired of this’ I thought to myself. Too much of these cartoons were getting annoying but I couldn’t tell Kade that, it would hurt his feelings and I didn’t want that. He needed to live in peaceful and healthy environment.Sigh!I felt myself dozing off, not because I felt sleepy but because the cartoon was boring. I looked over at Dax and he was staring at the tv like a robot programmed to watch the tv.I checked Kade and he was still awake. “Kade, it’s past your bedtime time to go to bed” I said , “mommy can I finish this cartoon first?” He said with a pleading tone, “No, it’s already past your bedtime honey, so you have to sleep now” I said sternly, I didn’t want him to grow up normalizing late sleeping. He got up and followed me upstairs.I knew I was still coming downstairs the moment he slept. I needed to watch a film, it’s been so long, ‘maybe I could wat
Becca’s POVI didn’t know the reason that I wanted to spend time with Dax more, we were on good terms but that was this urge to be with him more.Considering Kade and Dax, it would be a lot to handle on my part. Noticing I was thinking again Lina tapped me and I was brought back to reality.“You need to stop thinking about your problems alone, you can share them, if not with anyone you can at least tell me. Or you don’t trust me?” She said and I didn’t even have a reply but trusting her. Of course she was sweet and kind and all of that but I hadn’t known her for long.Besides trusting people was a big deal, you never know who is actually who.“Trust you?, we haven’t known each other that long and like I said, sharing my problems with people is not my thing” I said sternly and she didn’t speak about it any further.“So when is lunch break ending?” I asked, “It should end soon I think” she replied.I thought she would get mad at me for not trusting her but I guess she understood. I took
Chapter 90Elena’s POV“When are you planning on waking up?In the morning, don’t be a lazy rat. It’s time for breakfast everyone is already downstairs waiting for you, get up.” I said, struggling to push Damon off the bed.Goodness knows I know why he slept up this late,normally he wakes up before everyone and he is the one who comes to call me and sometimes makes breakfast.But we had such a tiring night yesterday and I couldn’t stop thinking about the beautiful moments we had yesterday. It was everything,it was the first time since the war that we had been that intimate .It had always been just too crazy.FlashbackI had many things on my mind as I asked myself questions with no definite answer. I didn't know what my plans were after all these because it felt so comfortable here as it felt really good to be back home. I met Dax and I also got a chance to meet Shawn back and things were better now and I felt like I had finally eased myself on the burden I had kept on my mind since

Chapter 92Elena’s POVFlash backI wanted to start my research next week so I could clear my head and start stress free but these people wanted to start as soon as possible.Sigh!If I was to start now I would need a space at home too since I couldn’t entertain any distractions. I would ask Dax if there was any space in the house that I could use as a mini laboratory.Starting at the hospital would be easy since there was a lab for each department then a general laboratory.This research would be one of the most Important thing I’ve ever done or participated in. It was going to be a tough journey.I went back to the office, “What happened?” Lina asked, “nothing, just about the research for a cure of the disease” I said and slumped down on the chair. “This is going to be a difficult one, and I’ll help you as much as I can” line said with determination dancing in her eyes, and it made me smile that she was willing to participate in a risky fight.
