Third Person P.O.VThe messy room is clean for once with no clothes around, some ornaments packed in a cardboard box. Riley stands straight after he tapes the boxes, he looks around a smile makes it's way on his lips when he spots the red blinking light at the corner of the room. Dusting his hands he pulls a chair and stands on it, he slowly pulls out the cameras fixed, his phone rings the very next second."Why did you remove the cameras?," Aiden questions as soon as he answers the call."I forgot to inform, I'm moving out," he sighs as he throws the camera to a bag."Where to?,""To my house,""Your house?,""The place where dad was staying, I find it useless to pay the rent with the money in hand,""Hmm, it's the first time I see you making sense," she jokes."I always make sense," Riley scowls, he chuckles when he realises that the call is hung before he spoke.The luxury room is brightened with enormous fascinating lights, the tables arranged with variety of deserts and wine. The

Third Person P.O.VThe twilight sky with the fading moon and stars makes the outside still chilly. The door of Aiden's room still ajar. The little gap gives him the view of the living room and the shut wooden door at the other side of the living room. Riley bends himself as he peeps through the gap, his feet tapping the floor impatiently. He has not slept in peace, for once he laid on the bed but sat up straight immediately when his alarm of three rang.He waits by the door holding onto the knob, as it's already half past five in the morning; his eyes never leave the door in his sight. The creek of the door in the silent atmosphere energies him, a spontaneous smile forms on his lips when Aiden walks out, and he examines her attire of the blue suit. He stands straight and takes a deep breath, letting it out... He pushes the door open and walks out with slow steps. "You're leaving?," He asks drowsily as he scratches the back of his neck and let's out a nervous laugh, “What a coincident

“Why does he look stunning all of a sudden? Why are my eyes taking a glance at him every second?” Aiden thinks, her eyes never leaving Riley who stands forward.Aiden sits among the three families who helped them to open a lawsuit, the families who were effected by the Aim’s chemical. she keeps her legs in place as it spreads beyond her control, she definitely would have purchased a men suit if her size was available but unfortunately it wasn’t... It’s really uncomfortable... Harry enters the room after the request of sudden witness is granted, he stands in the witness box and looks at Aiden, she passes an assuring smile... The questionnaire begins...Harry declares his identity of being an employee in the warehouse, he was working in the lab testing the medication, he offended when he found something wrong which put his life in danger. He explains that Johnson has nothing to do with the drug added because it’s one of the stock purchased by the company.Aiden moves forward in int

Aiden’s P.O.VTwo days passed since Harry’s funeral, Blake came back to consciousness last night. I look straight at Riley, he focuses on eating, his abnormal silence makes me uncomfortable, he really releases the gloomy aura. That night after the hug he uttered no word unless I ask him any questions. He just coldly answers in brief and ends the conversation, he has been slamming the doors shut and sometimes dropping things to the floor but when I ask him what’s the matter he says nothing... I get his message, he is mad at me... I tried to talk to him but didn’t have the time as I spent more time in the hospital to let Lisa rest.Riley does his dishes and walks out the kitchen like I never existed. Letting out a low sigh I stand to follow him.“Riley,” I call out... He doesn’t stop and walks to my room.“Riley, wait,” my voice comes out loud this time, he finally stops near the bed.“Why the hell on earth are you so mad?,” I look at him when he turns around to face me.“Don’t y

Aiden scurries in pulls the man who was about to beat Eric’s head with a baton in his hand, she turns him, her fists clutter on his face and puts a hole in his stomach. The man hits the ground and the other four men march towards her. Before they lay a finger on her, Riley lunges in and throws a punch at the man closer to her. Eric looks up taken back, his eyes wide surprised, the only question in his head: What are they doing?The five men fight against the two but couldn’t lay a finger on them. One of the men steps aside and tramples nearer to Eric, he pops a pocket knife. Eric pushes him when the knife cuts his hand meat, the man cocks the knife and hops forward. In a blink of an eye the man is pushed to the wall, Riley gets a good hold on him and shoves him against the wall. The five men flee out. Riley adjusts the collar of his shirt, he clears his throat and turns to meet Aiden to question about her actions.“Aiden sissy,” the little boy runs to her. He hugs her legs and looks
