It's been a week since Lilliana’s death and they all have been preparing for her burial. The previous day was her wake keep and Sofia insisted they did all the burial rites quickly as she doesn’t think she can handle the long process mentally.

So now the burial will be taking place on the Friday of next week and preparations for the burial were still ongoing.

“You sure you’re good?”

She turned to look at her fiance who was sitting beside her on the couch as they watch a TV show. Smiling, she nods and puts her head on his shoulder.

“I am fine Max”

“If you want me to call Audriana so you can have more girl time I could do that” he suggested.

She chuckled and wrapped her arms around his torso.

“I am fine, really. Yeah, I wanted some alone time with my girl because she has been there

    They decided not to take the car and went for a cab instead. She put on her sunglasses when they stepped outside and automatically he took her hand in his and entwined their fingers.She was surprised by his actions and almost slowed them down but Dimitri didn’t let that happen, rather he ignored the stare he was receiving from her and continued walking till they reached a place they could stop a taxi.He too was rocking an almost exact sunglass as she, with his brown khaki shorts, cream loose shirt, a pair of white sneakers, and his phone in his other hand.When she came out earlier from getting ready, she thought she overdressed seeing that he was super simple, while he on the other hand was glad she didn’t put too much in the dressing and was really casual as he wanted.Maybe the jacket was too much for a show… she thought.

    “So,” he began and she turned to look at Dimitri who was sitting really close to her with a rose strand in his hand.“First, this is for you” he handed her the rose and put the strand of hair falling on her face behind her ear.She blushed and looked down then smelled the rich goodness of the flower he gave her.“They smell nice,” she said lightly looking shyly into his hazel gaze and he smiled brightly at her then shifted closer to her and put his hand behind her.“Well you smell better” she widened her eyes and looked away from his gaze with the blush deepening on her cheeks down to her neck.What was he doing to her? She felt warmness all over her face and neck when he looks at her, smiles at her, touch her, say nice things to her and kiss her.He was really a charming man and can get any girl swooned by his

He put his face in his palm and let out a sigh whilst breathing heavily.Then he turned to look at his left side to see Audriana facing her side of the bedwith the comforter covering her from shoulder down.He sat up and rested his back on the headboard and closed his eyes allowing himself to calm down fully.It was just a

    By the time he came back upstairs she was kneeling with her knees on the floor, her head on the bed with the comforter covering her head and some part of her back.He shook his head and understood clearly why she must be in that position. He was quite familiar with situations like this but it has been a long time since he attended to a woman that has had cramps since Daniella.He wanted to ignore her and just go to work then focus on convincing Mr. Vimir to consider them even if he was to take part in just a little part of his upcoming project so he doesn’t have to relive the past again.Thinking of her made him angry at women and he remembers his decision not to have anything to do with the female gender that would go beyond having a great time.This was Audriana his wife, not Daniella his ex-fiancee.

    “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.

    “Okay, sure… just give me updates on how it's improving, and one of these days I will come over to see how far you guys have gone with testing,” she said over the phone as she made her way out of the university building and to the car park that was outside the compound where she had parked. “Thank you so much for your help with fishing out who was behind the disruption of the model we thought had failed testing, it means a lot to me and my dad… yeah, I am aware that you are a long-term employee here and I appreciate your honesty so thank you Mr. Hans” she thanked. 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

    “Are you sure you are okay?” he asked her and she nod her head and wiped the fresh tears that rolled down her cheeks. “I’m fine thank you” she responded with a forced smile and he nods they just looked at her and wished he could see Dimitri so he could land his fist on his face. “Do you need me to walk you in?” “No, it's fine… I can manage from here, you’ve done enough” she sniffed again and he smiled and then gave her hand a comforting squeeze. “I told him not to hurt you and he did exactly that” he let out a sigh and tighten his grip on the steering wheel as he voice out what was on his mind. “I wish I could give him a piece of my mind right now and…” “Philip… It's fine, I am fine and it's just a minor issue between a husband and wife and we will figure things out soon” she squeezed his hand that held her and offered him a smile and it was a genuine one. ‘I hope’ she wanted to add but didn’t want to say anything more about what happened between her and her husband to him or ju

    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
