“WILL you put me down now?”

Lindsey’s protest is all red and flustered by Aaron’s actions where everyone around is all eyes on them. Smiling and gossiping for a thing or two that she knew but doesn’t want to acknowledge it.

“Just a bit more, where almost there.”

Aaron who isn’t reading the atmosphere and only thinks that it is his job to take care of the injured one refuses.

“Men will always be men.”

Lindsey whispers in annoyance, covering her face and all wild in her mind of the troubles and possibilities that this will bring if anyone who knew her sees her like this. Worst with a man that isn’t her husband.

“Here we are.”

“Welcome to Café Latte---”

“Aaron?”

Taken a back and a bit puzzled. Lindsey looked ahead and around. Seeing that Aaron brought her to a small café, but with the atmosphere and welcome that is first warm and glad, then it immediately changes into surprise and expressions that are asking for the five W’s.

“W-what? Where?”

“Why? W-hen?”

Sure, enough everyone swarm

    “AARON, who is this girlfriend of yours?”The door just barge opens and slams. Surprising Lindsey and with the image of a big woman right in front of her now. “See?”Aaron giggle, pointing to the fact that he just said a while back. “Manager Lee.”He calls out smiling wide, and the woman is not all amused but instead is expressing all the disappointment of the world towards him. “Relax will you, your heart, think of your heart.”“You know I do not have that when it comes to you and your jokes.”The managers foreshadowing words. Like screaming from the inside that Aaron’s lies and jokes will not buy him a free pass, nor he will be able to fool an experience and smart woman like her. “Come on, I am not playing games right now. Besides, I didn’t confirm to everyone that what they just think is the truth. You all jump to the conclusion without even knowing the facts.”“Really?”Aaron presented his stand, confidence, and honest, which the manager is half believing and doubting him abou

    “YOU really aren’t big brother Aaron’s princess?”“Isn’t that so?”Lizzy’s question that everyone jumps and asks about it to Lindsey. Which in a few moments are not once more surrounded by everyone. By means, all of the staff in the café with their pleading like expression that she should just admit her relationship with Aaron.“This is a matter of truth, my conscience and pity, right?”She somehow debating within herself. Too weak for children and especially with those pleading look on their faces. Making her consider something that is a hell of a taboo in the biggest sense.“Don’t you like Aaron?”“You know he is a bit overbearing sometimes?”“He’s proud and a hard headed.”“Bossy and kind of scary,”“But he is good at heart and a gentleman.”Everyone’s words of convincing. All rooting for Aaron and not giving up to the possibility that she is his woman. That is kind of torn into the decision of accepting Aaron and officially, like they are in still in the early stage of dating and

    ‘DISHEARTENED?’“Damn! What is wrong with me?”Aaron curses to himself, asking the question that happens to suddenly plague his mind with the thought that he will never have the right to even think about it. Yet.“I called my husband. He will be here for a while.”He covered his face with the palm of his hand. Hiding inside the comfort room and looking flustered in front of the mirror. “F***! What the hell!”His curses and once more. Remembering Lindsey’s words and the fact that the husband will be coming to take her. “What the hell are you thinking?”He scolds himself. All the while holding his emotion and calming himself for the things and emotions that are out of the picture and too much for him to think about it all rationally. “Damn!”He slams his fist into the closed door from the frustration and irritation that he just thinks about. “Hey! Are you alright?”Aaron’s thinking and the literal world are interrupted. A bit taken aback by Lindsey’s voice and impulsively opens the

    “YOUR husband is here.”Words that is heavy as hell for Aaron to say somehow. In denial, but it was all clear from the tone of his voice and the way of his expression. He held himself and tightly on to the fact that he is currently the stupid person to even think of a thing which is a sin in anyway.“Harry?”Lindsey is taken a bit by surprise, worried that Harry might saw Aaron, and disappointed in a way that she is also in denial with the fact that she couldn’t and shouldn’t accept in anyway possible.“Don’t worry, I didn’t show even my shadow to him. Just like what you wanted.”“I-I see.”Aaron’s a bit of a rhetorical assurance that was clear enough for Lindsey to feel that awkwardness and more towards the two of them.“Miss Lindsey, someone is looking for you. He said that he is your husband.”One of the café employees suddenly barge in without knowing and reading the atmosphere around. But it was the perfect distraction that the two of them needed.“Alright, thank you.”Lindsey ju

Kidnapping the Lawrence twins and heiress is out of the line.”“A warning might not be enough.”Aaron’s threat, clenching his fist and hard. Angry and disappointed towards their little ally in the schemes that they have in and for the state. Going over board into things and plans that is not and will never be acceptable.“The guts of a man who is in power. Thinking that he can do everything that he will, just because he is in position.”“Tsk!” he smirks, calming himself and sit back down while having these civil conversations with Ash. “The organization might not care of whatever he wanted to do, as long as he complies to the contract that he signed with us.

    “BUT the real point her is the current one that is wavering Aaron more than he admits about the first woman’s importance to him.”Words that Hiro is expert of pointing out to someone that is his target. His so-called scheming game that everyone loves and curses about him. But more than anything, it is his wit and schemes, the way he can provoke a person to have the third highest position inside the organization.“Just think about its Ash, once you got that girl in our side. What she knows will be gone up like dust in the air. For what’s more powerful and blinding than love. Love that can make anyone stupid and be enslave by that emotion.”“Do not underestimate that woman. She manages to get away from my men, and grasp some information right in front of me. She is not someone who you could just mess around.”Ash honest opinion towards Lindsey. More like a praise that he just didn’t express about and intentionally. Still hung up with his pride after Lindsey slip from his hand and worst

Slamming the files on top of his desk with the photos of his infidelity and transactions that are out from the bounds of his deal from the organization that he took side with.“As you can see, it is everything of what I cam here for today. Governor.”Ash cunning smile and arrogant nature. Sitting unto the seat of the Governor and inside of his political office without any fear, nor a drop of holding himself up.“Are you threatening me, and for what?”“Tsk, Tsk, Tsk!”He clicks his tongue twice, unimpressed by the foolishness or acting like one that Charles is showing in front of him right now.“I didn’t imagine, I have no single idea that you are this good in pretending the you do not know. Francis.”“What?”Offended, but Charles couldn’t just burst out his anger in front of Ash.

Francis cowers in obedience, worst with his name dropped like a small pebble in the roadside that any second they just can kick away for good. A rule, and the consequence if he will continue to do things his way without the organization’s approval. “Remember who you are in this circle Francis, and do not forget that it is you that is to blame for your predicament that moment that you took our hand for a deal.”“I-I do, and I promise to not do anything without your approval.”“We do not want your empty word

Left alone in the headmistress office and at first glance they are seem to share a casual tea time. He looks down, not in shame, but a bit of worry from how things unfolded. Which makes him think if he is regretting his decision of giving Cath a clue about the past.“Or should I call you now with your known name, Aaron?”“Tell me, do you hate me that much after what you have learn, Cath?”“Hate you? Why should I? You didn’t do anything to me which needed me to resent you. Instead I am the one who should be asking you of that question, for I failed to recognize my old friend.”Old friend.

Francis stands before Cath, with his gun up a bit shaking from his wound, but directly pointing it towards her. “I may stupidly fail at first, but this time I will not fail to end your life. You who put me behind bars, Catherine Wayne.”“Cath!”Two familiar voices echo in the air, but before Cath could look and see for herself who could those two people be?

Do not let go no matter what happens and wait for her to say so. “Do you understand, Cole?”“Alright, aunt Lindsey.”The little boy replied and quickly borrow his face to Lindsey’s chest. Being an obedient child, Lindsey could feel the fear of her nephew with Cole’s shaking body and cold hands. “Stop, or find yourself swimming in your blood.”More than a familiar voice and the only person right now that Lindsey could think of who. She slowly looks back and is not surprised to see the Governor, no, Francis, pointing a gun right in front of her and with a cursing look on his face. “Just how low could you go for doing this to our family? Are you desperate to establish your dominance over us that you are going this far for your selfish desire?”“Low? Who, me? Tsk! Do not make me laugh Miss. Lindsey Lawrence.”Their exchange made it clear and more than to Linds

Tired and has been losing a lot of blood after she fought and struggled against Ivy. Now holding the gun that almost took her just a while back. “CATHERINE WAYNE!”The name, her name that Ivy screams in anger at the last second when she pulled the trigger and put a hole in its forehead.
