2024-10-29 19:42:56Okay, when Maisie agreed for Zach to follow her to work, she didn't know what would happen. In her defense, she never knew he would be telling her little snippets about people making her to almost laugh out loud and make others look at her as if she was crazy.
And she didn't know that he would be possessive too. Anytime Anthony came close to her, Zach went stiff and she knew that it was a matter of time before Zach would attack Anthony either in a fit of rage or just to make Anthony leave her alone. He was kind of suffocating her by always being in her space and treating her like an invalid.
And she knew that she wouldn't even bat an eyelash if Zach chose to step in. Still, Zach has been looking in over her shoulders since they got to her working place and she still didn't feel as if Zach was suffocating her.
Maisie shut down that thought as she

Towards the end of the day, Mr. Huggins came to her desk again but this time it was to tell her that a higher-up wants to see her. " God, I am tired. Why can't they let you go? You have a headache injury, they should have forced you to go home at lunch. " Zach complains as Maisie shook her head at him. " I am not the one complaining. You are. " Maisie said. " You need to do the complaining for me since I can't be seen or heard. " " You can go home or sit here and wait for me. I need to go and see what this is about. " Maisie said as she left. Zach sighs as he forced himself to stand and follow Maisie's footsteps. He came to protect her and as much as he wanted to fade into nothing and rest, he knew he couldn't do that. Normally making himself visible for Maisie to see throug

When Zach could control himself, he appeared with his back against the wall. He didn't know what was happening, but he knew that it was not natural, he also knew that he couldn't tell Maisie about it. She already had a lot going on and he didn't want to add this one too and he knew that Maisie will make it take precedence to her other obligations.So, all he needed to do right now was to pretend everything was alright and the first step to that was apologizing for his words the next morning because he knew that Maisie won't leave her room this night.****Maisie came out of her room the next morning and took in the arranged state of the sitting room. Zach followed her to her working place yesterday so that means that he must have tidied up when she was in her room. Without her approval, her lips curved into

Shit! What was he thinking? Zach paced the sitting room in an agitated state. He shouldn't have cuddled with Maisie last night, but he couldn't help himself. At least here didn't do anything extremely stupid like kissing her although he was severely tempted to. He was bad for Maisie, he didn't need his memories to know that. Yet he couldn't help how drawn to her he was. And when they woke up this morning in each other's arms, he knew that he needed to put some boundaries between them. He knew that he had gotten comfortable and he wished that if there was any way he couldn't be alive just so that he would get to know Maisie and be with her, he would take it, no matter the cost it took from him so far, he gets to spend more time with Maisie and explore this connection they have between them, as a human. He would give anyt

Maisie couldn't believe she just blurted out her feelings like that, in that situation. What had she been thinking? That was right, she wasn't thinking. She was feeling and she couldn't put a lid on her emotions, and it came out of her mouth at the most inappropriate time.She breathed as she rested her back on the chair, who cares if it came out the most inappropriate time, Zach will soon disappear from her life forever anyway, it is not like she will live with someone always reminding her of her method of confession. Maisie tried to remove her mind from everything related to Zach as she forced herself to face what was spread on her desk. The charts, which Zach helped her to construct. God! How could she take her mind off him when every dawn thing reminds her of him? Every place she turns to in the office reminds her of when Zach did something either funny or anno

Maisie tried to go home as late as possible but eventually, she had to leave, so she left. She entered her apartment and tried to shut the door as quietly as possible. She was not above sneaking into her bedroom just to avoid Zach. In fact, she was hoping he was already asleep so that she could escape the awkward dumping speech that Zach would give when he sees her. As she tiptoed to her room, Zach switched on the light with an eyebrow raised. " Really? Maisie sneaking in? " " Hey, don't judge the way I chose to enter my home. " Maisie said as she folded her hands across her chest and pinned Zach with a glare as if she had just caught him doing something wrong. " I am not judging you because of the way you are entering, I am judging you for the way you are trying to escape this conversation. " Zach corrected " As if it is any better. " Maisie said with an eye rol

**A few hours earlier, somewhere in the city** Jeffery walked into the hospital after leaving work early he would have loved to screw this meeting and go home and relax, probably by sleeping with his fiancée who was Zachary's girlfriend (well ex but he doesn't know it) but he needed to be here and keep up appearances. He didn't understand why Zachary was still holding on. He should just do everybody a favor and just die. The boy has been holding on for the better part of a year. When he attacked Zachary, he never thought that it would take a year for him to get Zachary things, but it is looking that way. If he had known it would take this long maybe he would have used a knife instead of a wrench, stab it straight to Zach heart and the boy would have been long gone with Jeffrey set in to inherit everything. Now he had to act like he was still looking for his brother’s attacker and so concerned for somebody

Maisie woke up the next morning and went through her routine in a state of unawareness. She tried to steady herself as she came out of her room and went to the kitchen where Zach sat with a cup of coffee like every other morning. Only this morning the only word they exchanged was greeting, Zach told her that he wants to use the day to figure out who he is, she told him that she is okay with that idea then they bid goodbyes as she went off to work.It has never been as tense as that even when she didn't believe he existed when he first came. Maisie used her hands to rub her eyes. She cannot go on like this, she needs to control herself better, but she can't. She can't because she loves him, and he didn't even love her. Betty was right, she always falls for whoever shows her an atom of kindness, but this was not like others she had been experiencing, no! She is in love. Totally

Maisie came home to feel her apartment eerily warm. She gasps as tears fall from her eyes, she didn't need someone to help her decode the conclusion that Zach was gone forever. He had finally gone wherever it was that dead people always go to when dead. Yet, that didn't stop her from running to every corner of her apartment screaming Zach name. He never appeared. He was gone. Maisie collapsed in front of his favorite couch, she could still see the indention made from his body ... Tears flowed down her cheeks, but she didn't mind them, she just continued to stare at the indention made on the couch.****A while later, she dragged herself off the ground as she moved to her room and out of habit backed her door. There was nobody there to watch her so there was no need for her to lock the door, yet she still did it. She dragged herself into the sho

Zach arrived at the location in which Jeffery wanted him to go and he saw Maisie on the floor bleeding. " Oh look. The lovesick boy came. "Jeffery said with a laugh. " And with twenty minutes to spare. Tell me, how many traffic laws did you break. " " I lost count after the first ten. " Zach replied as Jeffery let out a laugh. " Then let's get to business I am sure that you would like Maisie to leave here soon so we should start. " Jeffery said as he stood up and walked to Zach holding his gun out. " I would love to shoot you but it would not be satisfying enough. " " Then what do you want to do now.

Maisie arrived at the location which Jeffery had sent her with her nerves going crazy. She knew that she could be dead before Zach got there she just hopes that Betty and Zach should be alright after this whole incident." Well, well we'll. Look who came. " Jeffery said as he came out from behind a pillar and Maisie jumped in shock." Where is Betty. " Maisie asked in a small voice." Why, you don't want to hang out with your future brother in law. I heard Zach proposed to you and you said no. " Jeffery said making small talks as Maisie try to hedge far away from him." None of that. " Jeffery warns as Maisie froze.Maisie had to try a couple of times before the word could leave her throat. " None of what? "Jeffery scoffs at Maisie as he moved towards her.

Jeffery frowned at the news which Vivi had just told him about his brother. He could not believe that Zach could do that, he would not do that unless he remembers. He should have found a way to make sure that Zach had never woken up from that coma and then he would fired Maisie from the moment he saw her. And now he would have to do something drastic because warning, threats and attempted murders are no longer enough. Jeffery was not as dumb as to believe that he could get away with killing his brother and his fiancée but since he was already going down he has no problem with dragging those two with him.Jeffery turned and look at Vivi, if he was less jaded, he would have smiled at her loyalty, he knew with all certainty that if it has not been him but his brother in this calamity, Vivi would have cut her loses a while ago, but she stayed with him and with the way she is giving him information which are useful to him like his brother words and the order he would soon get from

" You nearly killed me. " Maisie said as soon as her lunch date sat looking nervous. He scanned the restaurant three times before he relaxed. If he had only known that there was a small camera that was recording his conversation with Maisie and playing it to some detectives who were in an unmarked car at the restaurant parking lot. Tim looked pale, " I- I do-don't know what you are talking about. " "That wasn't very convincing. " Maisie said with a glare " your phone sent the text that nearly made me died. I should call the police and have them arrest you. "Tim swallowed opposite her. " I never sent you any kind of. " " Sure. You didn't, your phone did that all on its own then when I arrived at the location I was sent to. I was attacked so let's see who the police will believe. " " I am sorry but I didn't send it. My phone is missing and I got a new one. "

Zach opened his door to a nightmare he hoped he will never see again. Maisie hanging from Cassidy's arms looking like she had just survived a fight with death. " What happened? " Zach asked as he stepped out of the doorway and allow Cassidy to enter. " She drowned. " Cassidy said as Zach turned sharply to look at him. " And what was she doing in the water by this time of the night. " Zach asked because he could sense that Cassidy was keeping something from him. " It would be better if you don't know. " Cassidy said after being quiet for a while when Zach asked the former question. " Why would she go near the water at this time of the night, Cass. " Zach asked in a firm tone which meant that he would not be moved from the issue.Cassidy sighed. He had tried his best. "She must have gotten a message that states tha

" Hello. This is Jeffery. "Jeffery said answering the unknown number calling him. " Hello! This is Tim from Hugo Financial Auditors office. "Jeffery stopped what he was doing. He recognized that name anywhere. He paid them to help him balance the accounts of his firm when it was still under him. And he visited them when Zach woke up to tell them that if anybody comes looking at clues that he should be informed. And although he paid heavily for that message to stick. He was glad that he spent the amount now. " Go on. " Jeffery said relaxing back into his seat. " We had a visit from a lawyer with your firm today. "" Okay," Jeffery said with a sigh of relief. They thought that he was still in charge of the firm. It was a good thing that Zach changed his ways of spraying his face all over the media when he woke up. He was going to have to distract Zach from that

" Maisie, where are you. "Zach's voice came through the instant the call went through. "Tracking down some leads. " Maisie replied. " Maisie, it could be dangerous.... " Zach started. " Yes it could've but I will not sit down on my ass and wait for you to recover quicker just so that you can do the same thing I am doing, " Maisie snapped at Zach. " If you won't sit on your ass, I swear that when I do see you. I will spank that ass. " Zach threaten as Maisie laugh." Is that supposed to discourage me. " Maisie asked as Zach growled." Where are you. Tell me so that I can come to get you. " " Like I will do anything that stupid. " Maisie rolls her eyes at Zach even though she knew that he couldn't see her. " I am serious.

" He what? " Maisie asked in surprise." He was responsible for my first accident. " Zach said as Maisie collapse on her chair. Maisie knew that something was going on when Zach didn't want his family with him but she would have never suspected the reason was this. " Are you sure? " Maisie asks Zach and when Zach glared at her she hurriedly continued. " I mean I always felt like something was off with Jeffery. Like, he was putting on an act but this is too far. " Maisie stood up unable to sit still anymore. " I mean why would he do that. " " Because he is my next of kin who is set to inherit everything when I die. I am sure that he decided to hurry the process of me dying. " Zach answered in a bitter tone.Maisie stopped her pacing to look at her boyfriend who was certainly angry. Both at himself and Jeffery.

Maisie gave Zach some water to drink as she pondered about his statement. What did he mean by that? Did he mean their time together or something else? He seems restless to make her understand but she calmed him down just after she pressed the button to call for the doctor. " Don't let my family near me. " Zach tells Maisie as soon as he had sipped enough water for his throat. Maisie frowned at that. That was a strange request even when it is coming from Zach, she knew that Zach felt out of tune with his family she had been hoping that he would not be too angry with her for not letting his family visit him but the request threw her. It was like he was scared that they would try to hurt him. She knew that she couldn't push for answers now but she could keep to his requests. " Promise me. " Zach added as the door open and the doctor came in." I promise. " Maisie
