She opened the pot of fried rice she just prepared, inhaled, and smiled so widely at how delicious it smells. She looked at the rice that had all the right ingredients in it and how beautiful it looked.

‘I am sure he would love it’ she thought to herself and bit her bottom lips to cage the smile in. Why are you so excited? She couldn’t answer.

Could probably be because she knew it was one of his favorite dishes and that she was able to get the right ingredients and make it nicely or just imagining his reaction when she goes to drop it off at his office.

That night he took her on that date he said wasn’t ‘a date’, gave her some kind of assurance that there was something for them and she wanted to get in it and enjoy the moment.

“I just hope he wouldn’t go back to how cold and distant he is used to being,” she told h

I have told you countless times to leave this garbage of a place and move to somewhere that doesn't look like the place of a crazy homeless human.” she hissed as she followed him into the building and in a passageway that had a very wild stench.“What is that smell? It is gross and makes me want to throw up”He stopped abruptly and faces her with a glare.“Do not act like this isn't the life you were once involved in and the life you once lived. This used to be your home so don’t be throwing tantrums just because you happen to stumble upon one,” he told her.

    “Anything yet?” Sofia asked Dimitri and he let out a sigh and then looked away from the worried-looking Philip who had been making call after call for the past thirty minutes to colleagues at the university and some students who had been in contact with her last. “Not yet Sofia. Have you contacted my parents yet? I have been trying to reach them but to no avail” “Yes only Aunt Patricia I was able to get a hold of, I haven't said more than if she had seen Audriana,” she told him and he nod his head and then sat down on the chair beside Aiden who was talking to Caleb. “I am going over to her parent's place so we can maybe report that she is missing or something” he ran his palm on his face and could feel a headache growing again. ‘Dimitri what did you do?’ he asked himself again for the nth time. “I really wouldn't have talked to her harshly, I feel so guilty now. Oh GOD please bring her back.” “Look, don’t be hard on yourself, she might have been so upset that she went somewhere t

    “That was what transpired between you two before sending her home?” his mum asked and he nod his head. Although he didn’t tell them word for word what he said to her but did tell them the truth about him saying harsh words to her and sending her home. “I really regret saying those harsh words to her and sending her home in that manner” he bowed his head. “I don’t want to know the word for word all the things you said to her but you really need to be careful with your words, no matter how irritated or angry you might be, you need to be careful.” his mother cautioned. Her parents hadn't said a word when Dimitri explained all that happened from her bringing him food to him talking harshly to her and sending her home and not being able to find her.

I will be coming in tomorrow do yourself a favor and feed her something to eat” “She couldn’t remember” “Remember what?” she asked impatiently. “You can't remember also?” he asked with a chuckle. “Look, I don’t have the time to be playing ‘guess what this, guess what that’ if you want to tell me something, say it, and don’t waste my time. I have other things to get to” “You have grown to be very potty and you very well know what I can do to you for disrespecting me?” he warned and she kept quiet. “Yeah, I thought so. Now, you will tell me when and what time you will be here to check on her and I am not giving her any food till you are back here” he said and disconnected the call. “So disrespectful” he muttered and went to grab himself a cup of water before going into a room that belongs to him and his personal things.

    “How come I didn’t think about this?” he muttered under his breath as he watched what happened in the elevator. She was crying when she entered and was trying to clean up her face when an older man came in. It was seen in the video how tense and scared she looked by the way she leaned further into the wall like she wanted to blend in with it if possible. The man had been looking at her from the time he got in and Dimitri could feel his heart race gradually as he watched her become tenser when she looked at the man and found him still looking at her. It seems as if there was a conversation between them as he nod her head but wasn’t looking at him. Then the man brought something out of his pocket and walked over to her. She seemed to have pushed herself further to the wall when he reached for her, she pulled away but he was able to grab her and they saw him with that thing he brought out of his pocket to be a syringe since he wanted to insert it in her.

    Soft feathering rose brushed against her cheek then went down to her shoulder blades creating an invisible line along her blades before going up to her other cheek. It felt ticklish against her skin that she would once in a while swat it away and rub the spot it went on top before it would continue and she would swat it away. He chuckled lightly when he saw her reactions to him using one of the roses he had ordered for her early in the morning so she could wake up to them on this special day. Adjusting his weight on one of his arms, he leaned closer to her, allowing his breath to fan against her face, and continued what he was doing earlier just as he expected, her hand moved above her face to swat away what was disturbing her sleep. Finally thinking he had bothered her enough, he put the rose back to where the others lay on the bedside table and leaned even closer to place a kiss on her nose but when the unexpected happened. Her eyes shot open and involuntarily, her hands went up

    “Do you feel okay today?” he asked and she nods then lay back on the bed properly while he packed the plate they just finished eating with. It’s been a few days since that incident and they are slowly accepting what happened and wanted to move on. Dimitri had been shuffling between coming to spend time with her, going to work, and helping to find out what caused the blast that took his baby and nearly took his wife’s life. “I feel okay, I guess,” she said to him then moved a bit so that he can sit properly on her bed “I still feel weak though” she chuckled and he took her hand then kissed her knuckles and palm. “No one is expecting you to jump back on your feet so soon, we are still in the beginning stage of our healing so easy does it” he leaned in and pecked her. “We’ll be good, okay?” he whispered then kissed her cheek and leaned back. “Thanks for being here” “You don’t need to thank me, everything will be good” he nods and she nods too. “Do you need anything else?” “No, I am

    It was evening already and he was woken by one of the nurses who told him to step out for a while so that they could check Audriana properly. He sat up on the couch and looked past the nurse to his wife who looked a bit pale and had no smile on her face as she responds to whatever she’s been asked by the doctor that was sitting on the stool beside her with a clipboard in his hand. “Is she okay?” he looked back at the nurse “She has no memory loss?” he asked and the nurse shook her head. “She will be fine sir but please step out for a while,” she tells him and he nods then stood up on his feet and looked back at his wife to see that she was already looking at him then she tore her gaze from him and back to the doctor. For that brief moment that their eyes met, he felt his knees go weak and the urge to cry for what she will come to know of made his heart heavy. He blinked several times and walked out of the room with wobbly legs. When he was outside, he saw only Aiden sitting outsid

    “Yes, I am Dimitri Lorenzo” he walked closer to him. “Doctor please, how is my wife? Where is she?” he asked looking hopefully at the doctor. “Please be calm Mr. Lorenzo… my name is Chargo Arrivederci, I am the doctor in charge of Mrs. Lorenzo’s case” he introduced himself and held his hand out for a handshake. Reluctantly, Dimitri accepted it and kept asking about his wife. “According to the reports we were told when she was brought in, it was a blast that prompted her to be here, and seeing that she hadn’t been in any way close to where the blast happened, is a good thing” he explained. Dimitri’s face softened and he began to relax from what the doctor was explaining but he still needed to be sure. “So, she’s fine? She’s okay?” “Well, like I said the blast did nothing to her only that when she was brought in, she was bleeding so bad, and when we checked the cause of the bleeding sir… I am so sorry, but we tried our best” he said.

Finally, they were able to pull out all the bad weeds in their company and employ fresh talents looking to grow in the field… now they are testing another model and hope that this time no one messes with it, especially now that they have heavy security watching the engineers overlooking the project. “Thank you once again and I will call you later,” she said and disconnect the call then walked out of the university’s compou

    The past weeks have been really stressful and it’s taking a huge toll on Dimitri. Him following up with his secret investigations to put Daniella Copello behind bars for good this time and him asking himself countless times if he should go get his wife now or not. He has been battling that within him every single day and would sometimes go to Sofia’s apartment building and stay at the angle where her window was to just catch a grasp of her. He had gone there multiple times to the extent that a resident that didn’t recognize him told him that she would report his creepy routine if he came back to creep on the window he looks at every time comes around that area so he stopped going, even a disguise wouldn’t help. So, he got news about her well-being from Aiden frequently and it brought him some sort of peace that she was okay but just trying to cope with their little space as he calls it. It is never a separation, it is just them having space to figure things out. He would be comple

    It has been less than twenty-four hours since she left and he was still seated in the same position that he was in from the previous day, only that he was leaning his back on his tie shelf and his long legs were sprawled on the floor. He slept that way and was sure to get an aching back, shoulder, and numb butt if he moves a muscle. How everything just went from smiles and flirting to cries, sadness, and moving out was way beyond him… he caused it this time and he feels ashamed that he couldn’t tell her on time and couldn’t even give her an answer as to whether he loves her or not. He hasn’t fully sorted out Daniella’s feelings yet and coming to a conclusion that he loves her when he hadn’t concluded if he still feels for his ex or not would be too much and would hurt badly. “I’m stupid” he muttered and closed his eyes whilst releasing a sigh. A headache suddenly hit the side of his head and he grimaced at the attack then let out a groan and adjusted his body against the shelf beh

    It was a look of intimate familiarity and that was one of the reasons she felt hurt now she is thinking ‘what if she is just putting too much meaning to what she saw?’ He might actually be irritated by her and her doings but with how she was feeling at the moment, she couldn’t see things that way… he felt like he needed that hug from her when she entered and saw them like that. ‘He didn’t hug her back’ her mind told her but she ignored it and proceed to ask her previous question. “Do you still have feelings for her?” she asked one more time and got her answer when he didn’t answer. She bit her bottom lip to stifle a sob then looked at him with the tears pooling out of her eyes and down her cheeks. “So, you still love her,” she said and he didn’t say anything but just looked at her. They stared into each other eyes with hurt written all over their face. “You don’t need to do this,” he said after a while and she shook her head and then closed her eyes as the tears kept coming down
