"I am fine," he replied.

"Are you sure?" She probed.

"Yes, I am sure, I thought you ran away." He said finally coming to his senses.

She laughed and sat down on the seat she had used before.

"Why would you think that?" she asked

"Because you were missing for almost two hours." He responded, eyeing her.

"Sorry about that I lost my way in the garden." She explained.

"Oh my God, you could have just called and asked for direction."

"Yeah, I know but I didn't bring my phone with me.

She said face-palming herself. She was cute. He couldn't help but smile.

"How did you get back here?"

He asked, laughing.

"Don't laugh, it wasn't funny earlier," she replied.

"Sorry, my bad." He apologized covering his mouth and trying hard not to laugh.

"How did I get back? I don't know, all I know is that your garden is beautiful but very big."

she complimented and complained.

"I will take the compliment and leave out the complaint," he answered.

We used to be more than this but the other left either to start a family or to take up new careers."Robert said and the sadness in his voice could not be mistaken."Wow, you must miss the old here a lot.""Yes, I miss it but I am glad you guys came around even though it is because of an unfortunate accident.""I am sorry for bringing back sad memories Robert."She apologized when he looked on with a sad expression."No, don't apologize.

    "Are you feeling any discomfort or anything abnormal?"Doctor Liam asked Devon while examining him."Nope, all is good," he replied.Laura was surprised when she found out Liam, is the one sent by the hospital. They almost always send Doctor Maxwell a strict nonsense man who always finds fault in whatever a person does which is why Laura had been tensed this morning and one of the reasons she had asked Devon to go with her for the morning walk to cool off her nerves.The last time she had done home service Max had said, Laura didn't fix the catheter well which had result in the patient peeing on himself which had not been true. She had tried explaining to him but he had not listened and had gone ahead to write a bad review for her."You are healing fast, there is no swelling or visible abnormalities right now, and that's good if it continues at this rate you will be out of the wheelchair even before the time expected."He said writing his observations down."You are doing a good job s

    "He likes her"That was what woke Devon up from his sleep, that's the only logical explanation to why he acted all caveman when the doctor came. He wanted to tell him off but had held onto his last straw of self-control.He didn't know how it started but he was very sure about it. If he didn't like her why then did he behave like that?Laura was beautiful, nice, friendly and intelligent so what's there not to like?Shaking off the thought, he gently got up. Unlike when he newly got back from the hospital, he can now get up and sit up easily. The numbness in his legs was less.Holding onto the bedside he lifted himself and sat on the wheelchair. Carefully Wheeling himself to his reading table, he picked up the book he had been reading, he was almost through with it.He couldn't concentrate on reading, so he closed the book and moved out of the room into the hallway. He met Percy on the way."Percy, have you seen Laura around?" He asked"Oh hi there sir, yes she is in the kitchen with R

    He was jealous? Of what exactly?Laura thought, but the man had been smiling for almost five minutes, he hasn't answered her question."Are you gonna answer me it not?"She asked. But he still didn't say anything instead he started using his hands to drum on the table."Do you have a boyfriend Laura?"He asked casually,Oh, that how he is gonna play Laura thought, ignoring his question she went back into the kitchen to get the chocolate that Robert had made for her, she took a bit while walling back to the balcony,"Are you gonna answer my question?" He asked when she sat down opposite him."You didn't answer mine so why will I answer yours?"She asked and continued eating the chocolate pudding while looking at the view, the balcony is one of her favorite places in the house especially this particular one, the view was heavenly, there was a beach in the distance, tall trees arranged in a beautiful order could be seen. The view was breathtaking she wanted to explore all the areas sur

    Devon drove to a stop on his way to Clovers and parked his car by the roadside, he stood there for hours wondering how he could have been so stupid and trusting, this would not have happened if he had just had the sense to verify what Cleo had said, no he chose to believe her and look where that has landed him, he should have known not to trust her, she lied to him while they were still dating so what stopping her from lying again, he needed answers from her, he could go without finding those he got into his car and drove back to his house, he met her while she was moving her stuff she looked shocked to see him, the first thing he noticed was that she no longer had the baby bump,"You are back? I was just leaving" she said, she didn't even feel remorseful which made him angry all over again."I have a question Cleo did we really sleep together that night because till now I don't have any memory of that happening.""I don't have to answer that,""Oh you do because if you don't give me

    "What? You are doubting me now?"She asked, getting up and walking away from him, which gave him even more reason to doubt her, she looked uncomfortable."I am not doubting you but the doctor said he carried out a scan to see if the baby was doing fine but nothing was seen and also he did a pregnancy test which turned out negative, forgive me for not trusting you Cleo but you just have to do the test and it will be clear because as it stands now I don't know what to believe.""I don't want to do a test, I am pregnant and you can see the baby bump, you saw the scan photos last week and that's enough proof,""No, that's not proof," he said getting annoyed. "That's not proof because I just realized that even though I go with you to your appointment you always make me do one thing or the other when its time to see your doctor and I only saw the picture but I wasn't there when the scan was done, neither did I see my baby, so if you don't mind going to the bathroom with me and peeing on a s

Then why is her stomach getting bigger?"Devon asked in confusion, he was at the city hospital, he received a call earlier that Cleo had collapsed at a filming set, he had told her to stop or pause her activities or at least limit them but she had not listened and just kept doing what she liked, guess she was still angry over his decision not to rush into marrying her, she wanted them to get married before their child is born but he didn't want that and going by what the doctor just said there might not be a child in the first place, but that can't be possible because he had gone with her to two or three doctors appointment."That I can't explain now until I examine her again, we just did a few tests and also gave her some medications to revive her, more tests will be carried out when she finally is stable but fo

She asked crying, he didn't know what to do with her tears didn't like it when he is the reason someone is crying but he couldn't promise her marriage either not when he knew he didn't love her and when he had some else in his heart if they got married they would both be unhappy, he just didn't know why she isn't seeing it like that, getting married cuz of a child is not it."I don't know what else to say to you Cleo, you just don't get it, I can't marry you, I am in love with someone else,""But you were in love with me once, we almost got married, remember?
