Jason.."Jade, you can take the van along with Patricia, I called someone to bring my car." I said to jade who simply nodded, grabbed his bags and walked away with Patricia.We were done with our lunch and ready to leave."Just do the right thing before it's late." Max said to Eve who shrugged in response.I'm sure Max knows something and I'm going to find out what that thing is."Let's go?" I said as I turned to face Eve with a smile on my face."Yeah." She said and placed her smaller hands in mine. We walked hand in hand along with Max and Ethan until we got to the car park where Ethan parked his car."We'll see tomorrow." Ethan said to Eve as they shared a hug."Later dork." I said to max who smirked in response."Bye." Eve said giving Max a hug but the hug was an awkward one.We walked away to where my car was now parked and Eve started small talk along the way."How do you plan on getting those tickets?" She asked quietly."Oh, I have a friend that works in big hit, I'm sure he c
Jason..Luckily, I got home in time for dinner and it tasted delicious."Thankyou for the food." I said to mom as Eve and i retired for the night.We both took our baths in turns and changed into our night wears.As I laid on my back staring at the ceiling, I just wanted her to know that I care about her."Eve, I know I've not been the best person to you but if something is bothering you, I want you to be able to tell me." I said quietly and she hummed in response.Was she asleep already?"Eve.." I called out her name."Yeah?" She answered and I sighed."I know you care about me and I trust you." She said after a short pause."I care about you too." She said as she moved closer to me making me turn to face her instead.She moved closer to me until our lips were touching and there was no space in between.I connected our lips and she left out a soft moan. We kept kissing until we stopped to catch our breath. Eve sat up and I did the same too. I looked her at her already swollen lips an
Eve..Two weeks later.I walked down the stairs ready to go to work. I've been in a very good mood for the past few days though I've been feeling a bit sick but there has been nothing out of the ordinary so far. Jason's birthday is in two days and I promised to make it up to me when he gave me that necklace so I'm planning to bake him a cake.So right now, I'm going grocery shopping. To get some stuffs for Ethan's shop and also for the cake I'm going to bake for Jason's birthday."Good morning." I said the moment I saw mom in the living room."Morning Eve." She said quietly."Is anything the matter?" I asked in concern."I have to go to the store with Sophie but I also have to go to a business gathering." She said sadly."Oh, that's fine, we can go together." I said."You and Sophie?" She asked and nodded."That's great then." She said and gave me a hug before she disappeared into her room. I walked around to look for Sophie so I could tell about the change of plans but I couldn't fi
Eve..It was quite late when I woke up from my sleep. I thought I would just take a nap but when I checked the time, a few hours had passed. "What a day!" I thought as I got out of bed and walked to the dressing table where I kept my phone earlier.I checked my phone and I realised I had over seven missed calls. Two from Ethan, three from Max and another two from Jason. I bet they're worried sick. There was a piece of paper next to my phone that wasn't there before. I dropped the phone back on the dressing table and picked up the piece of paper. "Why didn't you go to the store today?, We could have had some fun together.""Are you wondering how I have access to your house?, Well don't be. I'm watching your every move. PS - the man in black." I read what was written on the piece of paper.It was like the air in the room felt more tensed. I felt a lump in my throat and i tried to hide my fears."The man in black?" I muttered quietly.I crumpled the paper and grabbed my phone to leav
Alice..I waited restlessly in the car for Mark and the mole I planted at Jason's residence to come.I saw them approaching the car and I got down from the car and waited for them to get closer."So did she die?" I asked the moment I saw them."Die?" Mark scoffed."Do you think it's easy to have someone killed?" Mark hissed and got into the car."Why are you so cranky?" I hissed as well and turned to face my mole."You tell me, did she die?" I asked but she didn't say anything and simply looked down."Sophie!!" I yelled in anger."Speak up when I talk to you, did she die?" I asked once more in a cold voice making her shiver in fear."No." She answered fearfully and I slapped her in rage and she winced in pain."Why?" I asked angrily."Get in the car Alice, let's talk somewhere else." Mark said igniting the engine already seeing as I couldn't drive with the surge of anger in me."Get in the car as well." I yelled at her and she did as she was told.We drove away from the back of the ho
Jason.."You have two meetings left sir." Patricia said as she dropped another set of documents on my table."What is the finance department doing?" I asked in annoyance."Why haven't the CFO come to see me yet?" I asked again.All I want is just to see Eve, I miss her so much but this people just won't spare me a minute. I haven't even had time to call her since morning. I badly want to ask about her health since she's been acting all weird for a while."Sir, it's..." Patricia was about to answer me when the door to my office bursted open with jade running inside like all hell has been let loose."Jade, I'm busy." I said the moment I saw him but the look on his face said otherwise."Jason.." he said quietly and i knew something was wrong.I told him to call me by my name when we're both alone and not at work but if he's calling me my name at work with that kind of expression that means something has to be wrong."What is..." I was going to ask what was going on but my ringing phone c
Jason..I was overjoyed. It was really surprising. I don't know anything about pregnancy but I did suspect that Eve might be pregnant.Aftter all, I came in her twice. I'm gonna be a father!I'm so happy."The bad news is.." the doctor's voice jolted me from my reverie."We don't know when she'll wake up and we don't know how bad it will be when she wakes up." The doctor dropped the bomb."What do you mean by you don't know when she's wake up?" I asked confused."The patient, your wife is in a coma." The doctor said and my face fell."No, that's not true right doc?" I said with a broken voice."I mean people only fall into coma when they've been hit by trucks or when they get into serious accidents." "She fell down the stairs." I said quietly."What matters is not the manner at which she got injured, what matters is the impact of the fall." The doctor explained quietly."She could wake up in months, weeks or even a few days." The doctor said but I felt even worse."But will she wake
Jason..We all sat down on the chairs placed in front of the ward.I couldn't bring myself to go inside and face her.I felt like a failure.All sorts of things were running through my head.If I had brought Eve earlier to the hospital and we find out that she's pregnant, how would she have reacted to it?Would she be happy to be carrying my child or is it too early for us to have a child together?We would have gone for ultrasound and scan to check the baby and the OB-GYN would say something like - your baby is currently the size of a gummy bear and we would laugh about it.We could even come up with a foetus name and then we'll host a party to announce to the world that we're going to be parents.And then in a few months, we'll do a gender reveal party and then later on, we'll welcome our baby to the world but now that all these has happened, I'm not sure what the future holds for us.For me...What does the future hold for me when Eve is my future?Earlier, when I asked the doctor
