CHAPTER FIFTY-ONE

I stirred awake when I felt a hand on my cheek.I groggily opened my eyes. "How are you feeling?" I swatted Kol's hands away from my face."I need sleep." "It's 12pm." My eyes snapped fully awake. "I slept the whole night and half the day? And you let me!"He pulled back, unsure of exactly how I was feeling. "Was I supposed to wake you? You seemed so peaceful and I didn't want to disturb that."I paused. I hadn't slept that well in a while and honestly, it was because of him. I fell back on the bed and looked at the ceiling and then at him, with a smile on my face.His eyebrows rose in confusion, probably wondering how I had managed to go through many emotions in the space of seconds. "What?""Thank you." His eyes twinkled with mirth."Why?""Because..." There was no exact reason I could pinpoint. I just knew I wanted to thank him.When he realised I wasn't going to say anything else than stare at him, he stood up from his crouched position beside me."Well... I have something t

CHAPTER FIFTY-TWO

“Hello”“Is this Vicky?” My eyes snapped to the phone Kol had collected.‘Vicky?’ My brows rose at the nickname and the feminine voice.I collected the phone from Kol.“Hi… Yeah. It is. Who’s this?”The lady on the other end cleared her throat.“It’s Charlie. Your sister.” My heart rose in my throat.“My sister?” I swallowed hard as I looked at Kol. The phone was on speaker and he had heard everything I had.“Yeah. I uh… I got your contact… actually, can we meet and talk?” I looked at Kol who nodded at me.“Uhm… Yeah. I would love that.”“Great. I’ll text you the time and location. It’s so lovely to hear your voice.” I could hear the smile in her voice. My eyes watered as I thought about the fact that I had a sister. I wasn’t sure if she was older or younger. Just that I had one and wouldn’t mind either.“Okay.” I whispered, finding it hard to speak at a higher decibel. The call ended and I saved her contact immediately.“Charlie…” The name fell from my lips as I tried to picture a f

CHAPTER FIFTY-THREE

CHAPTER FIFTY-THREEMy fork hovered mid-air as I narrowed my eyes at the figure before me.‘What on earth was he doing here?’ I thought to myself.No one replied him but we had the same thoughts going through our heads.What did he want now?Josh’s teeth gritted against one another as his stare hardened. I looked to the side and was shocked to see a smirk on his face. It was the first time I’d seen an actual emotion displayed on his face whenever Jason was around.One could tell it caught Jason off guard. Jason’s eyes squinted they continued their stare off. When Kol didn’t back down, his ticked off eyes wandered to us, trying to see if he could figure what Kol was thinking. We were just as perplexed.“Let’s go.” Kol wiped his mouth and stood up, leaving Jason at the table. My mouth dropped open as I looked at Kol, then at Josh who had his brows raised and then back at Jason who was about to pop some veins.“What was that?” I said as I followed after Kol.“What she said.” Josh was just

CHAPTER FIFTY-FOUR

Kol hadn't said a word since the incident in the morning. It was barely even an incident. Kol was just being… well, Kol.I’d gotten compliments at work too so, Kol’s behaviour in the morning skipped my mind. I looked up the amusement part Charlie had wanted us to meet in. It was quite crowded on weekends. I would’ve loved a much more secluded place like a restaurant or something but she had initiated the contact and reached out to me. The least I could do was be there.“What are you looking at?” I looked up at Dara who had appeared beside me with my knowing.“Oh, nothing. Just looking through some places.”“Have you done what I asked?” I changed the topic quickly to avoid further questioning. Although, of late, Dara had gotten more out-spoken and it was good. She smiled more and talked more.“Yeah but the cyber team won’t release the file we are to work on. Something along the lines of ‘Geneva is not done yet and the boss hasn’t approved it.’” My face formed a scowl at the mention of

CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVE

“Put me down.”“No.”“I said put me down.”“Fine.”Kol placed me gently on his bed and walked backwards, putting enough space between us. I could finally breath clean air again and not his drowning scent.I wanted to fold my arms against my chest in petulance but I remembered what had happened earlier and bristled on the inside. Kol rolled his eyes at me and took off his jacket angrily. His jaw worked with tension and I was appalled at the fact that he seemed pissed. He was pissed.“How on earth are you mad at me? I’m the one in pain here.”“How? You’ve been giving me an attitude all day. You wouldn’t look at me, not at work, not at the hospital and not right now.”“I am looking at you.” He bent down and grabbed my jaw. Subconsciously, my face turned away from him.“See what I’m talking about?” He released his hold and stood, taking off the rest of his clothes. I looked away to avoid seeing things that would disorient my mind. I knew I was acting childish when I lay down on the bed an

CHAPTER FIFTY-SIX

The blaring of an alarm woke me up. I opened my eyes, disoriented. Kol was up and out of bed in a flash. What on earth was going on? I rubbed my eyes to rid it of the gunk in them. I stood up as gently as I could and followed after Kol who was running down the stairs. By the time I got to him, I was out of breath and he was perched on his chair behind his array of screens.“Kol, what is going on?” I looked at the time on his screen. It was past 2am.“Someone tried to force their way in.” My face leached its colour.“What?” Kol looked intently at the screen as he tried to figure out who the intruder was. I didn’t think he had security in place for his home. I mean, it made sense but I thought that was left for his other workspace.“After the flower incident, I upped security around the house but to think someone had the guts to actually come into my home…” Kol fingers continued to work at a furious pace until a face popped up. No, not a face. A body, clad from head to toe. They definit

CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVEN

I slammed the door of the car as I settled into the passenger seat. Kol looked at me apprehensively as he waited for me to speak.“I’m a twin.” Kol’s eyes grew wide as saucers.“Charlie is your twin sister?” I nodded at him.It was too much information to process at once. After the shell-shocking news, we couldn’t really get past it and we’d decided it was more than enough information for now. We had hugged and said goodbye.I knew nothing about her and about myself but it felt like I still knew too much. I’d been waiting to find out the gender of my sibling. I did. Then, I wondered if I was younger or older. It turned out we were the same age. Just minutes apart. I’d had the wrong birthday all this while.We were July born and my original name was Charlotte Rivers.“Wow.” I sunk into my seat trying to process a different life as Charlotte Rivers. I couldn’t. It seemed like a world far away. Too far away yet so close.“Let’s just go.”***“Did you say Rivers?” Kol spun around to look

CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHT

“Yeah, it has worsened lately. I think it’s my fault though. I’ve been avoiding my glasses a lot and it makes me strain my eyes.” I rubbed my itchy eyes once more but I stopped when the doctor sent me a look that would have had a child crying.“Do things get blurry at all?”“Yeah. I can’t see too far of a few feet in front of me.”The doctor gave me a new prescription. At this point, I could be considered blind because the lenses were so thick they could pass for flat mugs.I put on the glasses and I felt a little better. The swelling of my hand had gone down and I was back to work.I’d taken enough sick leaves to last me a year and I was tired of Kol treating me like I was made of glass. Charlie and I had also spoken over the phone in the last couple of days and it turned out, she was a doctor. Could she be any more perfect? She’d finished school early and with awards to her name. It was quite easy to find a placement in one of the top hospitals in the country.To be fair, she didn’t

CHAPTER FIFTY-NINE

I now had two men shadowing me everywhere I went. Everyone was a suspect, regardless of who it could possibly be connected to.Kol hadn’t had many partners and one was already dead. I highly doubted that high school crushes could some how spawn delusion psychopaths who thought it was perfectly okay to watch people in their houses and how on earth had they even avoided the cameras? All three of us, Kol, Josh and I had stayed up all night ransacking video footages of the company, the streets near and Kol’s house and found nothing. It was like this person was a ghost. A skilled ghost.I didn’t tell Thea or Charlie. They had too much to deal with. I couldn’t offload all that on them, plus, it was my problem. I’d deal with it.I’d temporarily moved in with Kol and we now went to work and back home together, fueling the rumours at work for anyone who noticed. Kol’s place was safer than mine in terms of security and definitely much cozier. Our fights had increased daily and we were both stre

CHAPTER SIXTY

“Where should we meet up?”“How about you come over and I make dinner? I happen to be an excellent cook.” We hadn’t been to each other’s spaces before and Charlie thought we would feel cozier if we met up at her place, which I realised wasn’t too far from Kol’s. A win-win situation.“Aren’t you very busy though?” Her being a doctor surely messed with her schedule. I’d seen videos of how over worked some of these medical staffers were, especially the nurses. How wrong I was.“Nope. I only work on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. Since I’m a plastic surgeon, my workdays are quite flexible.”“Oh.. okay.”“Does 6pm sound good to you?”“Sure.” All my exhaustion from the days work suddenly disappeared. I walked up to Kol’s office and knocked. There was no answer. I decided to open the door and wait for him.I walked to his floor-to-ceiling glass window and peered outside. I had never done that and even though I’d been in his office countless times, and there was an actual window, I felt like
