101. A Princess Style

SCARLETT.     Raya was so happy to see me and so was Eliana. Calling her by her name made me feel quite uncomfortable, but I pulled her into a hug.      Finn handed over her lunch box to her and she hurried out of the room towards the eating area. We both laughed as we watched her leave.      "She's been hungry since last night. Told her to get some snacks but she said she missed homemade meals," Raya said from where she lay on the bed. She tried to sit up on her own hut Finn gave her a glare and strode over to where she lay and helped her up. She glared back at him before turning to look at me. "Your mother is more stubborn than we both combined."     Finn grunted and pulled out a seat. He sat beside her. "You good?"     She rolled her eyes. "Of course,

102. Psychologist In Me

SCARLETT.     After speaking with Raya, I felt a lot closer to her than I had been the first time we met. She bared her soul to me. She told me everything she had been holding back, things she couldn't tell Finn or her mother.     For the first time in my life, I felt like someone you could look up to for emotional support. I felt like someone who could be there for someone else. Someone who could listen and empathize with me, and Raya had made me feel that way.      We were laughing over one of her very sad ordeals and I felt oddly comfortable with her way of processing things.      "And Volkov," I wiggled my brows at her, not minding if the mention of his name made her face tight with sorrow. "If you could see him someday, what would you tell him?"

103. A New Interest

FINN.       There was something off about Scarlett. It wasn't the odd one that made me worried. This one intrigued me and piqued my interest. I wanted to know why she was smiling down at her phone and furiously tapping at her screen. Was she texting someone? A new interest?     The thought of her texting a new interest had my jaw clenching. It better not be. I was ready to rip the phone from her and toss it into the bin.      Fuck, this wasn't me at all. I didn't think of yanking her phone from her and tossing it out the window. I was a gentleman who was bent on following the rules she had written down in her contract papers. I was her fucking bodyguard and chauffeur.     She looked up at me and placed her phone face down on the table. The smile still remained on her face be

104. A Terrible Mess

    SCARLETT.     I had lied. I hadn't gone to the garden and that was because I knew he was going to find me.     I had walked all the way to the northernmost part of the building, smiling at people— old patients, young patients, and other people who were polite enough to smile at me, but on the inside, I was a mess. A terrible mess.      I had seen a sunroom while we walked into the hospital this evening but I had only caught a glimpse of it. Thanks to my photographic memory, I was able to pinpoint where it was.      Now, I sat underneath a glass structure bathed with the palest of amber lights as I watched the night skies.      The hospital is beautiful. Ambient lights are everywhere and I can see people walking, talking

105. Under The Moon

SCARLETT.          Volkov:     Raya was my world. She was everything to me. I guess it was because I was just falling in love and, after her, I've not felt the same way for anyone. My parents weren't really in support of our relationship. They wanted me to date someone in the same class but I knew Raya's in and out. I knew her father was once wealthy before his death but she asked me to keep it from anyone and I did.      Being with Raya was like sitting under the moon. Addictive. I thought about her all the damn time. She was my fucking priority after my needs. I wanted to and did everything with her. I took her everywhere even though she was stubborn about it because of the bills and all. She was mine and I was hers. She made me a better version of myself. I was worse

106. Endure Any Longer

FINN.     It's been a day since I last talked to Scarlett. Well, she's been acting off since the day we arrived at the hospital and hasn't even tried to talk to me since our last encounter.      Raya's surgery is in two days and she's just— cracking annoying jokes as usual and Scarlett is tagging along. It annoys the hell out of me but my mother was suddenly and oddly happy that Raya wasn't so sad about this whole thing. It had me questioning her.      "She's about to amputate one leg, Finn. She's trying to be positive. I think we should all be," my mother said while we ate lunch at the cafeteria. Scarlett had offered to keep Raya company while we went on lunch break. Obviously, she told my mum and avoided my eyes like I wasn't standing right before him in the room.     "Mum, this is unlik

107. An Olive Branch

SCARLETT.     "Finn, can we not talk about who I've been texting? What I said still stands."     He nodded. "Sorry for asking."     Whatever I was doing now was either going to make or break my relationship with Raya and Finn.      Volkov was planning to visit after so much persuasion. Though I hadn't told him about Raya and cancer— which was not in my place to do, he was coming to visit me at the hospital anyway.      He already got his plane ticket and was to land at LAX tomorrow and I had never been so excited.     I had spent most of yesterday planning and brainstorming because I didn't want this to end as a disaster or something they'd all hate me for and I really hoped it worked.

108. Break From Life

SCARLETT.     Finn and I sat in his car for a long time. We were back at the hospital and the car was parked in the parking lot.       He stared right ahead of him, his fists clenched around the steering wheel.  He didn't say anything for a full minute and when he did, his eyes held anger.     "But why would you do that? Do you know how things ended with him and Raya?"     I nodded while fiddling with the hem of my shirt. "I know how things ended with them both. It wasn't a nice ending and they might still be in love with each other."   “And now do you know that?!"     I sat up. "Firstly, I would really appreciate it if you stopped snapping at me like a kid and secondly, Raya told me everything. I made sure I was

109. Rift Between Us

FINN.     It was time for the movie at the theater. We had already helped Raya into her wheelchair. Though one of the nurses told us we'd have to return her two hours later as she had to take her medication. I had never seen Raya look this happy and I imagined the happiness leaving as soon as she set eyes on Volkov. I shouldn't have agreed with Scarlett's ideas. But she had a way of making me feel guilty. She had done the same thing on the day she suggested paying for my mother's trip.     Scarlett wheeled Raya down the corridor and both women giggled as they talked about random things. It was nice to see her getting along with someone after she had alienated all of her friends. Maybe she needed someone in her life. A friend. Friends, maybe.     "They both get along so well," My mother said as we got to the entrance of the cinema. "I've not seen

110. Harm Than Good

SCARLETT.     I really shouldn't be feeling nervous right now, but I can't help it. My palms were clammy and I could feel sweat drip down my back as I walked out of the lobby through the chrome-framed glass rotating doors.      Volkov already informed me he was waiting in the parking lot. He even sent a picture of a small signboard close to where his car was parked.      I closed my eyes and heaved a sigh, counting down from twenty to zero and praying to whoever was in the skies listening not to make this a flop. This was my first time meeting Volkov, so telling how his reaction would be was nearly impossible. All I could do was hope and pray that his reaction would be worth it.      What if he got mad? I mean, Raya didn't end things with him on a good note. In fact, things had ended really
