  Maya’s story 11.07.2019, 10:30 AM, London hospital - Good morning, Miss Maya! - Good morning, doctor! - How are you today? - Better than yesterday, so it must count for something… - It does Miss Maya. There is a person here to see you… - Too bad, I cannot see him… - So you realized it is a man… - Musk… - Right! I was waiting for that man to come closer. My heart was not on my command anymore. It has its own thinking right now. Irregul

Maya’s story Just a knock at the front door made me almost jump in my chair. I am nervous. But what if this is not temporary? I guess Phillip saw my anxiety because I felt his scent close to me. - Try to calm down a little, Miss Maya. Dr. Stevens is going to help you. He is the best there is. - I’ll do my best. It’s just that… Suddenly he took my hand in his. It was so warm and comforting. Tears formed in my eyes, numbed by the darkness they have condemned me to live. - It is going to be ok! I know it will. Trust in your healing will and your doctor. - I trust in you too, Phillip! - I know you do, and I will be with you every step of the way. I promise! When Annabelle opened the door, Phillip broke his embrace and a wave of coldness went through my complete body, leaving me alone and unprotected. He left me with my hands up, looking for the only man that could make me feel safe and whole. - Welcome doctor! Please make yourself at home! - Thank you, Mr. Smith, you are too kind

Phillip’s story   Her question came like thunder on a stormy day with the odds to hit only me. “Just great, Phillip, how will you get out of this?” I asked you to stop asking stupid questions and what do you do? That's what you're asking - Well, when I came to the scene you were the only one in the car… Half of the truth, I hope she believes me… - I was unconscious… - Yes, you were Miss Maya! - And alone… - I was there on time and took an enormous risk to get you out of the car. I knew that maybe by moving you I could do you harm, but I had no choice. The car was about to explode.

Phillip’s story It was a dream come true going with Miss Maya shopping and then for a cup of coffee. She doesn’t know it yet about the coffee. I had many excuses to be alone with her, watching her do normal things, like brushing her long red hair or just staying with her at the table in the morning serving breakfast. Me, who quickly grabs something and storms out the door to the recording studio. Now I take my time to have a decent morning meal with her, the woman that changed my way of seeing simple things, even breakfast. Today is going to be a busy day. I don’t have other plans, so I will spend it all on her. I make my way to her room and knock slightly. A soft voice comes from inside. - Come in! - Miss Maya? - Yes… - Do you think you can be ready in fifteen minutes? - Of course. - One more thing… - Yes, please! - Are you afraid of speed? I could see her eyes going from surprise to wonder. She didn’t expect it because she did not know what to say. That was when it hit me.

Three months later The ball was postponed due to some organizational issues. It was better that way. My feet were more reliable right now. I made so much progress. I finished the physiotherapy a week ago. And also I got rid of the wheelchair. I wanted to do that for some time now. What can I say, this postponing of the charity event kind of ruined my plans of leaving? But at this time I find myself an apartment to live in and set up a fashion company. My memory was still a blur but it turned out that I had enough money to do all that. And of course, I did all this without Phillip knowing. As for my eyes, they were still broken. I haven’t regained completely my sight. I can distinguish shadows as I’ve done so far, but I can’t see faces and places. Even so, my plans still stand. Once the ball is over I will leave from Phillip’s life. - Miss Sinclair, the headquarters of your new company is quite near Mr. Smith’s place. Do you need to reconsider this? - No, I don’t Mr. Sm
