Tessa

"Mom, I'm sorry!" I cried out, still shaken but as I looked around, I realized I was still in the hospital, sitting in front of the emergency door. Sweat dripped from my body.

Was this all just a dream? I wondered, rubbing my eyes. How could I have such a vivid dream?

A nurse approached me, smiling. "If you want to sleep, you can go to room OC, it is on the left side after that corner." She pointed to a corner and I smiled dryly.

"Thank you" I replied watching her walking away.

I stood up, still trying to process my dream when the emergency door swung open, and Mr. Carter was wheeled out, followed by medical staff.

I wanted to touch him but the nurse restricted me from doing so.

They wheeled him into a ward and it was Room 306 exactly the one I see in my dream.

"Is this déjà vu? This was exactly like my dream" I muttered in a way that only me could hear.

The medical team attended to Mister Carter. A nurse instructed me to keep the room quiet, as he needed silence to recover.

    TessaI rushed to call the doctor who had attended to him yesterday in the operating room. He came and performed some tests on him, I watched him do everything.After a while, he raised his head with a gentle smile."What happened, doctor? Is he awake now?" I asked, and he shook his head, which slumped my shoulder."But he will soon," he said. "He has shown signs that his situation is improving, so keep hope for the next two days, he should be out of bed." He explained with a bright smile."Thank you, doctor," I bowed my head."Keep a close eye on him," he uttered before quickly leaving the room.I stared at Mr. Carter before walking toward his bed and kneeling beside him, gently grabbing his hand."Wake up quickly. Mom and I miss you," I spoke, unaware of when the words slipped from my lips, but I didn't care.I stood up quickly, walked to the side, pulled out my phone, and dialed my mom's number."Hello, Mom," my voice boomed with happiness, and I knew she would be wondering why I w

    TessaMr. Samuel rolled on the floor, as if that could wake Mr. Carter up . I watched him annoyingly, thinking, Can't he be sad without being funny?"How could this happen to you, why you? Why not them?" she wailed, her dramatic tone making me want to burst out laughing. What did he mean by "Why not them?" Was he expecting me to have an accident? And be in Mr. Cater's position? "Who does that?" My lips curled up in a teasing smile.He directed his gaze toward me, cleaning his teary eyes. His eyes was now shooting red "Tessa," he called, and I gave him my attention, raising my brows in response."How did the incident happen? Do you think it's a coincidence? Who do you think would be behind this? Did you know anyone he fought with, maybe in school or around the street?" he asked.I shook my head. How could he ask me so many questions and expect me to answer them all? At once? I don't think the man is okay though. "I can't say, sir. I've never seen Mr. Carter arguing or fighting with

    TessaI watched him swallow his words and stormed out. I knew he was angry, but if he didn't want me to call him Grumpy again, he should just say his name out loud or else leave me to keep calling him by his nickname generated by me."Tessa," I heard Mr. Samuel's voice dragging me back to reality."What?" I raised my gaze, and he gave me a keen look as if he had an idea of what I was thinking about."I saw those eyes," he said with a puckered mouth, and I scoffed continuously."Which eyes?" I hissed inwardly, but he didn't get angry at me, instead, his reading face increased."The eyes you gave to the doctor. Don't tell me you have a thing for him?" He pointed to the direction the doctor had used earlier. I quickly stood up with a loud gasp. "No, how could you say that?" I waved my hand in the air. The person I had something for was the one lying on the bed, not Mr. Grumpy. How I wished I could say that aloud. Too bad I can't unless I want to get myself into trouble."I don't have my

    TessaI raised the cucumber to my mouth, using the tip of my tongue to tease it before taking it in and sucking on it like a cock. I savored the sensation, enjoying the intimacy of the moment dwelling over my body. Nothing compared to Mr. Carter's touch, his lips on my skin, his breath tracing my body. I missed him deeply, his hand teasing my nipple. Oh gosh, I can't wait for him to wake up. I removed the cucumber from my mouth and returned my focus to my desires. I opened my legs wide, gazing at my reflection, already aroused. The mere thought of Mr. Carter's hands on me sent shivers down my spine.I laid my left leg on the wall, resting the other on the floor. I used the cucumber to stroke my clip before gently pushing it inside. I felt intensely aroused, having gone untouched for days.A loud moan escaped my lips as I pushed it deeper. "Oh, fuck!" I screamed, my hand moving rhythmically. My groans echoed off the walls.If only we had neighbors, my voice would have carried, but

    TessaThe next morning, I woke up with a tired body, my eyes on my mum, who was still sleeping peacefully beside me. My gaze shifted to Mr. Carter, whose eyes were still closed.I clasped my hands together, closing my eyes as I whispered a little prayer. When I opened my eyes, Mum had already woken up, her eyes on me."Praying?" she asked, and I nodded happily."Good," she whispered.I stood up from the bed, stretching my body tiredly. The usual morning coffee smell filled the air, and I'd love to buy some, but the fact that I would have to line up for more than 30 minutes made it frustrating.My phone suddenly rang from the stool where I had put it."Your phone is ringing," Mum said, even though I had already heard it.I walked over to pick it up, and it was Leah calling. I had saved her number since yesterday when she called.I slid the green button and put it on my left ear."What's up? Hope you don't forget about the practical?" she asked, and a gasp escaped my lips. I had totally

    TessaI couldn't help but wonder why I'd been meeting so many rude and cold guys lately. Mr. Grumpy at the hospital and now my neighbor was no different. It made me miss Mr. Carter even more.I shrugged my shoulder and made my way inside to get prepared before time knocked on my foot.I opened the door walk to my room the usual smell filled my nose. I picked out an outfit from my closet before heading into the bathroom to take a refreshing cold shower. The cool water invaded my body.After I was done bathing, I quickly dried myself, slipped into my chosen outfit, applied light makeup to soothe my face, and styled my hair.Feeling refreshed and confident, I grabbed my bag and headed out the door. I was in the middle of locking the door when my phone vibrated inside the bag. I wondered who it was, but I doubted it wasn't Leah. I locked the door and brought out the phone, and as I had suggested, she was the one. I slid the green button."Are you on your way?" Leah asked almost bursti

    TessaWe both walked out and Leah grabbed the first taxi that was packed in front of us. She waved and drove off my eyes lingered on her car until she was out of view. I scoffed and grabbed the next taxi giving the driver the home address since Mom was still at the hospital, I could just catch a quick sleep at home.The driver started driving, I rested my head in the mirror side my mind wandering around but the sudden sound of my phone startled me and I flung up surprising the driver but he kept quiet. I held my chest bringing out my phone with the aim to curse the person but it turned out to be my mum calling. I hissed inwardly before sliding the green button. "Hey sweetie, change of plans," she said immediately I picked up and I frowned my brows at what she meant by that. "I have to go to work," she revealed taking me by surprise. "Why? Didn't you submit a leave form?" I asked angrily. "Yes, I did, but my boss needs me, I'm also not expecting this, I don't know why he specializ

    TessaMy eyes were wide and I couldn't comprehend the scene unfolding in front of me right now. Mr. Carter was staring at me with a sly smile crept on his lips. "Did I have an eye problem?" I contemplate, running my palm on my eyes but it was still the same. I woke myself up, It wasn't like I wasn't expecting him to wake or something but it was too sudden to feel real. I mean? "Mr. Carter!" I finally exclaimed accepting the scene in front of me, astonishment etched on my face, my eyes wide with joy.I rushed toward him, my feet moving swiftly, a smile spreading across my face. He smiled weakly, his eyes sparkling, warmth radiating from his gaze.I wrapped my arms around him in a tight hug, relief washing over me. "I'm so glad you're awake!" I exclaimed, my voice trembling with tears.Mr. Carter's frail arms enveloped me, his face still pale, but a hint of color had returned."Easy, Tessa don't choke me," he whispered, his voice low and soothing.I released him, concern flooding in

    Tessa Epilogue. Two years had passed. I could hardly believe it, but here I was, standing in my cozy living room, arranging the last of the decorations for Jasper's 5th birthday party. The house smelled of freshly baked cookies, the faint scent of balloons, and the light hum of excitement in the air.I was nervously running through the checklist in my head as I put the finishing touches on the birthday setup. Balloons? Check. Cake? Check. Presents? Check. Family and friends? A little of both. I glanced at the clock, realizing the guests would be arriving soon. Everything was in order. Well, as much as it could be. Jasper had been babbling all morning, excited for his big day, even though he had no full idea what was truly happening. To him, it was just another day of love and laughter.My mind wandered for a moment, drifting back to the years that had passed. Life had changed so much, and yet, some things remained constant. Jasper's little laugh, his giggles as he played with his to

    Tessa The past week has been a blur. After everything that happened, life has felt like one long, surreal dream, a strange mixture of relief, reconciliation, and nervous anticipation. I still can't quite believe it's real.Jasmine had come to me almost the day after I reconnected with Carter. I hadn't been sure how I'd react, but the moment she started to apologize, I could feel my defenses starting to crack. She poured her heart out, tears in her eyes, confessing all the things I'd never known she felt. She admitted her insecurities, her jealousy, her regrets. And for the first time, I saw the human underneath all that bitterness. It was hard, but I forgave her. I didn't want to carry that anger anymore.Then there was my mom. She hadn't just given Carter her blessing, she insisted I finish my education, too. I'd always wondered if she'd think I was weak for leaving, for not holding myself together. But her love and support had been unwavering. She understood me in ways I didn't ev

    CarterI glanced out the car window at the small, quiet town as we pulled in. It was the kind of place I'd never imagine myself setting foot in, a town so small it was almost hidden on the map, tucked away like an afterthought. But here I was, waiting for Mila, parked outside a diner that looked like it hadn't changed since the seventies. It didn't make any sense why we were here, and frankly, I was too tired to argue."You're still not going to tell me why we're here, are you?" I said as Mila climbed out of the driver's seat.She shot me a look over her shoulder, her lips pursed in disapproval. "You don't get to complain," she said bluntly. "Not after everything."I felt a pang of guilt, one I'd been feeling more often than I liked lately. I knew she was still angry with me, but I was trying to make up for my mistakes. "I'm sorry," I murmured, not for the first time. "I just... I thought maybe this was about Tessa. I thought you'd heard something."Her expression softened just a litt

    TessaMy mum didn't waste a second. Her expression hardened, and before I could open my mouth, she stepped forward and, with a sharp crack, slapped me across the face. My cheek stung, but the shock was worse than the pain. I could barely comprehend what was happening before, in the next breath, her arms wrapped around me, pulling me into a fierce embrace. She held me so tightly, and it felt like she was holding onto all the lost years, all the words we'd never said.I felt the weight of it all pressing down on me, and I couldn't stop the tears that came. They poured down my face as I buried myself in her shoulder. Her breath hitched as she sobbed against me. It was strange, to feel her strength and her sorrow all at once. "I'm sorry," I managed to whisper, my voice barely audible. I didn't even know where to start. There was so much between us, so much hurt and misunderstanding.She pulled back just enough to look at me, her face streaked with tears. "Why didn't you come to me, Tes

    TessaThe warm, familiar scent of coffee and freshly baked pastries filled the air as I poured a hot cup for the man at the counter, a regular who'd become a comforting presence in my little world. "Here you go, Mr. Davis. Extra sugar, just the way you like it.""Thank you, Tessa." He gave me a smile, his eyes crinkling in that friendly way that made me forget, if only for a moment, about the mountain of worries I kept carefully tucked behind my smile. "Can't find coffee like this anywhere else, you know."I chuckled softly, appreciating his words. "Glad to hear it. Keeps me in business, anyway."He laughed, but as he turned and left, the cheerful facade slipped just a bit. In the quiet that followed, I let out a sigh. Keeping this place running had been harder than I'd ever imagined.When I first arrived in this town, I was barely holding on. Lost, alone, and with no idea how I was going to make it on my own, I'd been saved by the kindness of a woman I'd met by chance. She'd offered

    Carter POV It had been 3 years. An entire 3 years, and still, nothing.I set the phone down, and exhaled, forcing the frustration from my chest, but it was no use. It never seemed to leave me. Jasmine's concerned eyes met mine, asking me for answers I didn't have."Was that...?" she started, her voice quiet, uncertain. She didn't need to finish the question. I knew what she wanted to hear, even if I'd stopped letting myself hope for that answer."No," I replied, managing a small, empty smile. "Nothing yet. Still no word on Tessa. They're following up on the last few leads, but..." I trailed off, feeling the weight of the words I couldn't say.The police had already declared her a runaway. As if it were that simple as if it explained why she'd vanished without a trace. They had ruled it a voluntary disappearance, a choice she had every right to make as an adult. I'd used every bit of influence I had to keep it out of the press, to keep her name clean, to make sure her image remained

    Carter The weight of what I'm seeing settles like lead in my chest. The grainy video plays on the screen in front of me, though every word feels like a scream. Tessa, slipping through my office door, alone. I look up at the board members. Their faces are impassive, judging, waiting for me to explain. But the truth is simple, and I refuse to give them the satisfaction of seeing me squirm."What you're implying," I say, my voice rougher than I intended, "is absurd. Nothing inappropriate happened between Tessa and me. She came to talk to me about her grades, and her future. I was offering her advice, mentorship."They exchange skeptical glances as if the word "mentorship" was just another excuse, another way to cover my tracks. The bitter reality of it sinks in, I've already been tried and convicted in their minds."Mr. Carter," the chairman finally says, voice laced with condescension, "regardless of your intentions, it's clear that certain boundaries were crossed. Even the appearanc

    TessaThe sharp, sterile light stings my eyes as I blink myself awake. Everything feels hazy, muffled, as if my senses are wrapped in cotton. My head throbs, and when I try to sit up, a wave of dizziness forces me to sink back onto the stiff hospital bed."You're awake. Good." A voice cuts through the haze, gentle but firm.I turn my head to find a nurse standing at my bedside, clipboard in hand and an expression that's equal parts concern and disapproval. I try to speak, but my throat is so dry that only a croak comes out. She hands me a cup of water, and I sip it gratefully, letting the cool liquid soothe my throat."Where...?" I manage to mumble, but she's already anticipating the question."You're in the hospital," she says, matter-of-factly. "Some good Samaritans brought you in. You were unconscious on the sidewalk."The memory floods back, a blur of exhaustion, of pushing myself until I couldn't anymore, the ache in my chest from everything that's happened recently, everything t

    Carter I've barely had a moment to breathe since Tessa laid everything out for me, I think of everything I might have done for her but was unable to lay hands on a particular reason. It all felt like a nightmare. I walk through the corridor leading to my office my mind raising with the thought of Tessa, what I can do to change her perspective? No matter how hard I tried to reason it nothing seemed to come up, if only I knew what I did in offending her maybe I would apologize but nothing, the last I remember, we were on good terms and everything was going perfectly well. I raised my head only to find that the Students were smirking as I passed them, something that usually wouldn't bother me, but today it feels different. Something's off. A couple of the professors cast me looks that are anything but neutral. Disapproval, disdain. I don't know what they are looking at that made them press their gaze on me but I know it's nothing worthy of my time. I brushed them off thinking I had
