Lucy's pov;I woke up from my nap and sat straight on the bed to assess what was happening with me. I touched my neck and forehead to check the temperature for fever. It wasn't as high as it was in the morning. Looks like my temperature has settled down a bit. I let out a sigh of relief. "We should always use a thermometer to check for colds," Tyler said as he stood up from the chair beside the bed. Was he in the room the whole time when I fell asleep? He sat beside me on the bed and checked my temperature using a thermometer. "How much is it?" I asked while he was looking at the temperature.He says, "Your temperature's normal." When I tried to get up, he stopped me and said, "But take a rest for a while. You're not recovered fully." I held his hand and made him touch my forehead while saying, "Look, I'm better than morning." He retreated his hand quickly and said ignoring my face, "Take rest. I'll bring hot soup for you." And left the room. What's with him? I let out a sigh a

Lucy's pov;At the dinner table, I asked Tyler, "Why didn't you have dinner?" "I waited for you.""It's past 10.""Are you worried about my health?" He let out a chuckle and said, "Time doesn't matter to me when it's about you."I shook my head and continued eating the food in front of me. Tyler says, "And I had a meeting too. Since we were in different time zones, it ended a while ago." I nodded.Tyler continued, "And, I talked with the principal today. He said you can join in a week. One more week to go to school. Are you excited?" "Not excited but scared.""Am I hearing properly? Did you just say you're scared? Can Lucy be scared too?""I'm not sixteen to get excited about going to high school after finishing middle school. I'm nineteen." "Three years is not a big deal, babe." "Everyone will be younger than me. I bet they're going to tease me. Can I get home tutoring instead?""No. Who will look after you after I go to work? You're going to school.""Are you sending me to sch

Lucy's pov;Before going downstairs, I walked to Tyler's room and saw him working on his laptop. I closed the door and came downstairs to prepare lunch. All I knew was Italian cuisine. Because of that, Tyler's the one who's cooking for both of us till now. I should make something for him. What should I cook now? Let's keep it simple so that I won't make it worse. I searched for some simple dishes online and came across tempura shrimps. What shall I serve it with? Soba noodles? I don't have time to buy it in the store so boiled rice will be perfect. Won't it be bland if we eat only boiled rice? Let's cook some stir fried veggies. Yes! It's easy and simple. While the rice was boiling, I made tempura shrimp with the use of the internet. After the shrimp were deep fried, I started chopping vegetables to stir fry it. "Smells delicious. What are you making?" "Tempura shrimp with boiled rice and stir fried carrots and broccoli." "Wow! Sounds good. Do you want my help?" "Did you finish y

Lucy's pov;When I turned in bed, I saw a figure sitting on the chair watching me intently. I sprang up from the bed asking, "How did you get inside?" Daniel says, "The door was unlocked so I let myself in. How can you be so careless after getting kidnapped twice already? Or are you inviting them over?" I got up from the bed and asked, "What are you doing here? didn't you say we're not going anywhere today?" "Yeah, but that doesn't mean I'm not allowed here." I asked while walking to the closet, "By the way how long were you sitting like that?" "Not so long. A couple minutes maybe. You looked funny so I got curious and watched you sleep." I gave him a stare and asked, "Can you leave my room? I have to shower." "Sure." and left the room.I closed the door after Daniel walked out . I took off my sweatshirt, and took the towel from the hamper. I started my shower and when I was done, I went straight for the closet to wear my regular clothes. But when I opened it to put my shirt

Lucy's pov;Ivan, "I thought of sparing your life but you know about us. You know about all my clients and my business. How can I let you go freely when you're a threat to me?" I smiled at him and asked, "So you're going to kill me now? ” He looked down for a moment and then lifted his head again. “Well if it was up to me, if you decided to come back and work for me, I'd be more than willing to spare your life." I laughed. "But no, that's not possible, is it?" I looked up and said, "Yes. I'm not coming back." he grabbed my neck asking, "Is this your final decision ?" I nodded in response and told him, "Yeah." He took out the gun and pointed at my head saying, "Fine by me then." I stared at him as he was pointing the gun at me. He let go of it and asked others, "Finish her off!" When he tried to walk away, I yelled, "You had the chance, Ivan. why didn't you just take it?!"He turned around as he was looking at me and asked, "What did you say? Take what opportunity?" I s
