121. In Surgery

 SCARLETT.     An hour and Raya's tantrums later, she was ready for surgery. Eliana had been asked not to feed her or the sort. So they had just kept her food.      Volkov had been by her side since morning and was unwilling to leave her side, but now that she was ready to get into the theatre room, the doctors were changed and a mean-looking short man walked in.      "He looks like he wants to kill me," Raya blurted out loud for everyone to hear. Eliana hit her slightly. "What? Am I not right?"     She looked at Volkov. He was trying too hard to hold back his laugh and as soon as Eliana and Finn walked away with the surgeon, he burst into laughter.      Finn leaned towards me when he returned.

122. See Her Tonight

FINN. Scarlett tried really hard to take our minds off Raya's surgery. She suggested that we play board games and she urged my mother who tried to to avoid it by taking a nap. Somehow, Scarlett knew she wasn't going to take a nap. She was going to spend the rest of the day thinking of Raya and if I was going to be honest with myself, I didn't want to think about her surgery either. We played games for a while and I noticed that this made the air less tense. Everyone had loosened up and soon, we were laughing. Scarlett won several times and my mother told her she had picked the game because she was perfect at it. We played the last round and Scarlett asked her to make any pick of her choice. She went for monopoly. She was really good at playing it. It reminded me of the times we spent at the back of our house playing with our Dad. He used to be the champion. He then thought mother to play and they became the King and Queen of monopoly. I watched as she set the paper b

123. Miss A Wedding

SCARLETT. I was happy. And so was everyone. Finn had come with good news and after that, Eliana suggested we take a trip to one of the eateries around town for a celebration date. Volkov, who somehow felt like he wasn't in our group, decided to back out but with one state from Eliana, he backed in. The stare of a mother was always effective. Unfortunately, it wasn't the same for my mother. Eliana decided to pay for all of our meals and when Finn suggested helping with the bill, she told him not to try it or she was going to amputate his hands. We had all been shocked by her use of humor but we were soon laughing. Finn had a look of surprise on his face. "I am surrounded by a bunch of adults who take care of themselves. I want to be a mother today so neither of you have any options." I had gotten a call and a test from my mother. She was begging me to pick her calls or at least text her back. After I had gone AWOL for a week, she was definitely worried. I was

124. Safe In His Arms

SCARLETT. It had to be a dream. Or maybe I was hearing in another language or something. I moved in my seat to fully face Finn who was staring at me. "Are you serious?" I grabbed the scruff of his shirt. "Are you really sure you know what you're saying?" He turned his phone towards me. I gasped and my hand clamped over my mouth as I stared at a photo of Kelvin stepping out of a building with a few suited men walk-in behind him. "That is Moretti. He's the leader of the Mafia gang." Tears spilled down my cheek and I rested my head on his shoulder as I burst into a fit of sobs. "So that's who he really is? He works under them? Or does he work for them? What exactly does he do? I am going to show this to my parents and to the whole world. I am going to prove my father wrong for once and he's going to see what I have been telling him the whole time!" Finn placed his phone on the glove compartment and grabbed me by the arms. "Not yet, Scarlett." I looked up at

125. Heartbreak hurts worse

FINN. I watched as Scarlett slept in my arms. She had fallen asleep halfway into the movie and now, the movie credits were rolling out. I gently peeled her off my body and placed her on the bed beside me before quietly climbing out of the bed and picking the packets of snacks that littered her bed. After tossing it into the bin, I walked back to her bed, tore out a sticky note laying on her bedside table. After writing on it, I placed it on the table and planted a kiss on her cheek before slipping out of the house. Throughout the drive to the hospital, all I could think of was Kelvin and how to bring him down. I didn't know how I was going to do it. As much as I wanted things to be over real soon, this was just the beginning. I had to do things myself from here and even if I needed Leonardo's help, I had to pay his men because they weren't going to do a thing without getting a reward and I totally understood that. I had sent a text to Leonardo, asking him if it was okay

126. The Black Knight

FINN. It was time for me to leave. Raya was busy with Volkov as she seemed really happy seeing him. I liked that he was around though I am never going to admit it to him. "He makes her happy," My mother said from the door as she watched Volkov. She was reading a letter he had written on her and a visible smoke was on her face. "I'm glad he's here. Scarlett really left an impact," "She did. I have to agree," I said and watched them. I was happy that she was happy. We were going to talk about her amputated leg soon enough. Whenever she was ready though. "Finn," I turned to look at her. "You've not been at work for almost a week. You really need to have some rest so you can resume worn energized," I smiled and pecked her on the cheek. "I am fine, mum. Really." "You've lot a bit of weight," She said as she touched my cheek. Her scrutinizing gaze washed over my body. "You should eat enough, okay?" I laughed. "You know I always eat enough, mum. You don't have t

127. Giving Someone Else

SCARLETT. I woke up to an empty bed and panicked. I guess I was already used to Finn being around me. I missed him. Terribly. The warmth of his body, the way he held me in his arms and never pulled away for once. I placed the side of my cheek on the bed and stared at the television before me. It had been turned into a station that played soft country music. I stayed in that position for a while and just as I stretched my body, I heard the sound of the gates opening and a car driving in. I jumped out of my bed before I even realized what I was doing. I didn't care if I was dressed in nothing but panties and a tiny top that could pass for a bikini bra. I hurried out of my room and ran down the corridor, smiling and hoping to see Finn's tall body climbing out of the car. But it wasn't my car outside. It was another car. A familiar car. One that put dread in my body. My heart sank and I retreated slowly as I watched Kelvin climb out of his car. What was he doing here?

128. Terrible And Traumatic

FINN. It had been a long night. After speaking with the men, Leonardo had told me not to stress myself. The truth was going to be out real soon. I had thought about driving back to the hospital but my guts told me to drive back to Scarlett's place. Raya was fine, at least. Scarlett was asleep when I left and even if she woke up to a note, I still had to see her so we could discuss. I knew she was definitely bothered about what I told her. Now that I thought of it, I shouldn't have told her. I had made that mistake and there was no going back. So I made a U-turn, driving towards her estate. It was a long drive but in no time, I was driving through her gates. I squinted at an unfamiliar car parked in the driveway. Had someone come to visit her? Her parents? I decided to check my phone. If her parents had visited, she would have sent a text. And she did. But it wasn't her parents. Whenever you see this text, Kelvin visits. Don't come in. She sent this

129. A Fragile Egg

SCARLETT. I don't think I have felt safer than I have been when I am in Finn's arms. I slept in his arms for over an hour and when I woke up, he wasn't there. He left a note anyway. He started leaving notes recently and I loved to read them. I usually stash them in a box for memory's sake. I knew he was going to be gone soon and I wasn't sure I could live with that. Maybe I could live with his written notes and his texts and the random unaware photos I had taken of him. It was all going to end soon now. I thought of how he had been making moves in the dark. How he had been doing research for my sake and as insane as it was, I loved it. But it was dangerous. He was literally walking into danger. I didn't want him to do that. I had an inkling of what a mafia group was all about and I'd Kelvin was really involved, things were going to get heated from here. Kelvin had an elevated ego and Finn had deflated it tonight. I was scared for me and more afraid for Finn and his

130. Our Seperate Ways

SCARLETT. The night passed slowly. Much to my disappointment. I didn't eat so much and it didn't matter if Finn made a delicious dinner. I asked him to keep the rest for me so I could have it later. We ended up not watching the movie as planned. Just sat on the couch, staring at the blank screen as we waited for one person to talk. Finn did. "I don't regret beating him up. I would have done worse." I said nothing. He continued. "When I saw the text you sent to me, I had already gotten to the garage and I wondered why he was visiting and how he knew this place. I decided your parents probably told him. I didn't want to wait outside because he was not to be trusted and before a minute elapsed, I realized I was right. I hated that I hadn't arrived sooner and when I saw him on you," he stopped himself and heaved a deep breath. "All I could feel within me was rage. So much rage. I wanted to snap his neck. I didn't even know what I was thinking. All I wanted to do wa
