Hannah
I didn’t wanna create a scene so I kept quiet until we reached his cabin. He closed the door and I got out of his hold.
“What the hell is this?” I almost yelled.
“I am happy these doors are sound proof” he smirked and I was a little scared. Soundproof. No one will even hear me scream. Oh fuck, I should stop thinking this stuff.
I took a step back. “Stay away” I whispered but my voice looked as if I was completely scared. He got back and went far.
“No need to be so scared”“Where do I have to sit and work?”“You will get your cabin tomorrow. Today, you can work here”“What the hell? I am not working here!”He sighed. “Look, Hannah. Don’t be dramatic. I am really just trying to make things good because we are gonna work--”
“Because of you. You can just end the contract. Why will you create a problem and then try to find a solution when we clearly have a better solution?”
“Hannah look, I am so serious about this. Don’t make me mad. I don’t think that I wanna talk shit right now”
“Don’t you dare try to control me”
He sighed in frustration. “Fine Hannah. You are my employee and you gotta work the way I tell you lest there is something that harms you. You are gonna work here now and that’s my order” he went out and I just stood still.
I don’t know what to do now.

Keith
I was working in a restaurant. I had plastic surgery two years ago so that I wouldn't get caught and it worked. I am so happy that they could never catch me.
It was really something worth celebrating because it is difficult to not get caught by the American Police. Ah, I am so lucky. I got the surgery in Japan.
If Max’s dad hadn’t helped me… I would have never made it out of America without being caught. Yup, you read it right. Max’s dad.
Well. Whatever it is, I am happy--
“Hello, please take this order” I heard a waiter and I nodded. I am a chef here.
Nah, I wasn’t interested in cooking but what can I do…
I took the order and started making the next food. My cooking was a little better than normal cooks, so our restaurant was always crowded. I was overloaded most of the time but it was okay with me.
I may not be earning very much, but I am happy. You know, I never talked about stuff like this. But I guess the new face has given me a new personality too. I have been more positive and maybe a little better human than I was before. Maybe I am a little sweeter and maybe a little less rude but I know what I did when I was younger and I don’t know how to feel about that.
I mean, I don’t wanna hate myself. I know how wrong I did. I kidnapped a girl, I even looked at her in the wrong way and touched her without her permission but that is what I was back to them. That’s not who I am today.
I can’t even think of accepting my past. It looks as if I was okay with what I did. No, I can never accept it even when I know that I have changed. I have seen people accept themselves even after they have done the worst.
But trust me, it sucks. It sucks to think that it was you. The one who did it all. I mean, you just can’t live with it. It suffocates you inside.
You must be thinking if it is really that difficult then why am I still alive? surely I should have died but honestly, I have someone I live for. And you know what? This is a worse condition. You literally can’t see someone loving you when you hate yourself. And she loves me so much. I love her too but I am always so insecure because who knows if she will love me till the end.
If you are wondering who she is… well, she is Caroline. Yeah, caroline. She… and I… got together after I changed myself. I don’t know what happened to Cody. She never told me and honestly, I am least interested in knowing his story.
All I know is, I love her and I am happy.
I gave the dish to the waiter and he took it and then he came running to me.
“What happened?” I asked him.
“The CEO of Swifts Corporation is here!! This is insane!”Keith“The CEO of The Swifts’ corporation is here!! This is insane!!” the waiter yelled and my heartbeat increased.Ryan.I will meet him again today.“Woah, that’s crazy” I looked at him. “Don’t waste time and ask him for his order”“Oh yeah!”He went out. I know he will not even recognise me but what can I do? It was his girlfriend, the one I kidnapped. This all is so close to my past and it scares the hell out of me. Maybe I will not get caught but who knows what will happen?He brought the list and I nodded. “Thanks Joe”He nodded and left. Joe has been my friend since I started working here. He might be the waiter here but he is still one of the best friends I have.I started making some of the stuff while some was already there. Some was passe
HannahI was worried when he ordered me to work there. I don’t know if I can do anything. I wanted to stay away from him, but because of Samantha I have to bear with him every day!I sat on one of the seats in his cabin only and started working. A laptop was already there.As I worked, I remembered the things he told me in the mail. All the duties and work. I remember them nicely but in some of them, I had to work with other employees. But he has not even made me familiar with anyone else.I sighed. I wanted to meet other people, so I left the cabin. I walked to the left along the corridor and soon I saw a girl.She was almost my age. I smiled. Maybe I can make friends.I went to her. “Hello, I am new here” I smiled at her. She looked at me, from up and down and scoffed.“Hello” she replied. “Stay away from the boss
MaxI was sitting in my company. I decided to somehow meet Samantha. Maybe we can still… uh, work out… I know it is crazy to think this because those years in high school, she stayed away from me and it was quite troubling. I tried to stay away too.This distance taught me that I have to be with her, but maybe she realised that she can live without me. I am so scared. What if she hates me?I remember the last time I talked to her. She told me that she doesn’t hate me, but she also doesn’t think that we can ever work out now.She said I did damage beyond repair.But… but there has to be a way, right? I mean, we are… were… in love. That means, we can never live without each other. True love never dies. It can’t just… end.It might be a little difficult, but it is worth the risk. I got up from my sea
Hannah“You decide to choose. Between being my girlfriend or getting bankrupt” he smirked. I got up from my seat and scoffed.“What the hell is wrong with you?” I walked up to him. “You think you can control me?”“Yes baby”I smirked. “Okay, I will never be your girlfriend and you should get that in your head” I looked towards the door. “Now open the door or I will call security”“Call security” he laughed. “To what? To arrest their boss?”“Yes maybe” I looked into his eyes, my face dead serious. “Mr. Ryan”He sighed. “Why do you like to make things difficult for yourself?”“Because you make no sense to me anymore. You may think you are some great CEO, some billionaire but mind you, I will not do what you say”
MaxI went out of my house and waved bye to Dove. I didn’t know what I was gonna say to Samantha. I haven’t prepared any speech or maybe some long essay describing what I went through without her, or about my love, but I knew I would explain myself to her.I should at least try once. Maybe she will agree.I went to my car and started driving. I know where she lives. She might be alone, after all, Hannah moved out. I don’t know how that thing got between them. They were truly inseparable.I reached her house and parked in front of her gate. I took a deep breath as I stared out of the window. The next few minutes are gonna decide my life. You know, I’ll never try twice on her. Noot because of my ego, or even self respect. It is because I don’t wanna pressurise her. If she clearly says no, I will try to let it go.I sighed and finally g
DoveI was feeling so anxious and so blessed at the same time. He finally was giving me a real chance with him. I don’t know how this happened and honestly, I don’t care. I know that I love him and he will never feel any type of emptiness while I will be here.He hugged me and it felt as if I had waited centuries for this moment. He literally is the best thing that happened to me. It felt like a dream. To be honest, it looked as if it was too good to be even in my dreams. I never thought he would start a relationship with me first.He got a little away from me and took my face in his hands.“You are okay with this, right?” he asked me.Oh that is the most stupid question, right there!“You do know how stupid your question is, right?” I said, whilst laughing a little. I didn’t seem to hold back my happin
HannahI was sitting and signing my fate. He is just such a psycho. He literally acted to know that? And honestly, I don’t love him! I hate him!The day was over and I decided to ignore him and do what I should. I will just do everything normally. Like we never met. That would be good.I went out of the company. “Going home?” I heard a voice from behind and I instantly knew who it was. I turned around to see Ryan.“Yes” I replied, confidently.“Want me to drop you?”“No thanks”He came to me but I got aside. “Stop going around me!”“What’s your problem?”“You are harassing me!”“Oh, really?” He came close. “How about this”He came towards me and I went back and hit the tree.
Hannah“You recognise me?” He asked me and I took a step back.“Why… Why are you here, Keith!”“Don’t be afraid” he took a step towards me but I went back.“You should stay away!”“Hannah…” he sighed. “That’s the past”“And I am happy that it is the past! Just stay away from my present!”“I am away. I ain’t coming into it, just hear me out…”I took a deep breath and scoffed. “What’s it?”“You can easily recognise me. Why? How?”“I will never forget the kind of aura… I had around you!”“There is nothing else that helped you recognise me?”I scoffed. “Look Keith, don’t mess with my head because I don’t
Max’s POVThe doorbell rang a few times. Dove came out of her room. “Who’s it?”“I don’t know.”“Open then!” She ordered me. I stood up frustratingly and opened the door. It was the Police. My eyes shone in excitement. Samantha complained for me!The Police took Dove with them. They had all the proofs with them. I directly went to Samantha after giving my statement. She was at her house.“Samantha,” I said as she opened the door.“Max!” She gasped and hugged me. I was shocked, but hugged her back.“I thought you hated me…” I confessed.“I… of course, I am angry and all… but I can never hate you…”I smiled and cupped her face. “Let me make it up to you.”“How?”
Narrator’s POVMax was with Dove. He wasn’t happy, but Dove had made it clear that if she wasn’t with him, she would use her powers to actually make things worse for Samantha.Max couldn’t help but agree with what she said.---After a few monthsEverything was going fine. Ryan tried to be good to Hannah, but he couldn’t be. Things were really bad when it came to trusting.From time to time, Ivan also made things worse. Ryan got angry when it came to Ivan being anywhere near to Hannah and it angered Hannah too.But at last, he had been trying his best for her.Even Hannah had started feeling the changes in his behavior. It felt like he was changing. Lately, his jealousy wasn’t irritating to her - although she showed it like it was.Finally, it was the day when R
RyanI knew that I had to do something, so I got up and went to her cabin. I stood there and knocked on her door. She looked at me and scoffed.“What do you need?” She asked me, but it was like lip sync because I could only see her: and not hear her from the soundproof glass door.I opened the door and went inside. She looked at me with disdain and continued with her work.“I don’t wanna hear or talk about anything. If you’re here to yell at me, make sure to leave the door open so you embarrass me even more.”I sighed at her words and went near her. “I am sorry, Hannah.”“Sorry? Sure.”“Hannah, I am really sorry. I didn’t know what to do. I--I didn’t make it up.”She glanced at me once. “Are you still saying that?”“Yes. And I… uh, I don’t know how to make you believe me.”She sighed. “You
RyanI was in my cabin when someone entered without permission. I looked up at who dared, and found a man who suddenly smirked at me.“Who are you?” I asked him.He walked near me and smiled viciously. “Tsk tsk. You don’t know me?”“I don’t.”“You should have drunk that potion back then and talked to your grandfather. You made a mistake by not doing so.”“What do you mean? How do you know all that?”He looked at me and smirked. “If you want Hannah to be safe, then ask her to move in with you. If she denies, she’ll be dead.”“What?” I asked, but he just went out.I followed him really fast, but he had already left. When I asked my people to check how he entered the company, everyone said that they saw no
HannahI was in my cabin and dealing with the emails when someone knocked on the glass door. I shifted my gaze to the intruder and my eyes widened as I saw Ivan.Ivan… He still looks the same, only a little more handsome.I opened the door hurriedly and he flashed me a smile. “Long time no see!”I laughed. “Yes!! It is so good to see you!”“Did you really recognize me?” He raised his eyebrow as he entered my cabin and shut the door close.“Well… yeah, but I wasn’t sure.”“Oh, that’s fine.”He took a look around my cabin. “Good place to work at!”“Haha yeah…”“So how have you been?” He asked.I sat down in my seat and sighed. “Fine. Sit do
HannahI sighed as I reached my cabin. I still have to take a look at the candidates.I opened the post on my mobile. There were already 8 candidates, while 29 were asking for more details. I scrolled through the offer letters of each of them and one of them really grabbed my interest.“Hey, Hannah.Do I need to introduce myself? Yeah maybe because we haven’t met for the last many years, you might have forgotten me.It is me. The guy who is so smart but still unemployed.It is me.”It is ‘me’? Who is ‘me’?I stared at my screen for about two minutes when only one face came into my mind. Ivan. Ivan Rochester. Is he the one?I went through his profile meticulously, but his name was unknown. All I could see was his birthdate, which was exactly the same as Iv
Hannah“Hannah, I love you.”I looked up immediately. His hand was still on my face as he stared into my eyes. To be honest, this composure was really sexy.“You-- what?” I asked. I might have heard something wrong.“It is true. I love you.”“But…”“But what? Hannah, trust me.”I looked down. Trust him? That’s the only thing I don’t do. I can’t trust him like this.“How can I trust you? What if you break me again?”He looked into my eyes and sighed as his face became gloomy. “Just one last chance, Hannah.”I sighed. “I… um, need some time.”“Okay.” “Yeah… um, uh, should I go, or do you have some work?”&ld
HannahI went out and sighed. The place was actually scary.I sat down in my cabin and waited for him to come and approve my application. After a few minutes, I heard footsteps and I looked up to see him entering my cabin.“So I see the reason you have mentioned in the application. Your best friend is in the hospital?”I was completely irritated. Was his memory wiped out!? Why was he acting so strange? Just to irritate me?“Yes.” I smiled irritatingly and he smirked at me.“Oh, that’s sad.”“Can I go home now?” I answered, my patience already overflowing by now.“Sure, but because you have made two mistakes and you are to be punished twice for that, you agree to come to me when I call you, even off time.”“What?”&
HannahI took small steps and finally after a deep breath, I entered his cabin. He looked at me and with a devilish smirk, he kept his phone down.“So, you’re here.”I nodded hesitantly. He got up and sighed.“You’re late.”“I--I was… um, with Sam, so---”“I don’t care about that,” he said and looked at me. “You have to work overtime today.”“But Ryan--”“Ryan? Why the hell do you think you can call me by my name?”I was shocked for a minute, but instantly understood what he was up to. I decided to play along.“Oh I am sorry boss.”He smirked.“Good.”I sighed and continued. “So, I
