Episode 31

HAYLE'S POV.My fingers remain curled up into my hair, my lips moving in sync to the slow jazz played through the stereo of the driver, my eyes against the window while a light drizzle of rain fell through the glass.“We are there, mam.” The cab driver called out to my attention, and I nodded with a faint smile before standing to my feet.“Thanks sir.” Before passing a bill to him, I responded.“Keep the change,” I responded to him keenly with my words. Not holding the entire thing back, perhaps if I was a little more nice, something good could probably come my way.I shrugged slowly, dragging my feet towards the entrance. I could see Emily seated comfortably on the chair placed on the porch.“Wow. That's kind of early; what happened? Did anyone get into an accident? She asked about lighting up the end of her cigarette. I rolled my eyes, trying to hold in my pain.“Nope, nothing of that sort; maybe worse, you know what? It doesn't even matter; I'll end up walking away on my own terms.

EPISODE 32

ALEX POV.“Non Lies I promise, but can we set off or perhaps talk in my absence? It's freezing out here, and it wouldn't hurt to stay in a closed space.” I asked slowly, batting my eyelash in her direction, knowing so well that the only thing I wanted was to be in close proximity with her. I wanted her to see me close up while I poured out my heart's content to her. I wanted to hold her palms against my chest while I spoke, just so she could feel my heartbeat and the sincerity in my words.“Closed spaces? Do you have anything to say, or are you simply searching for an excuse telling me all these because if that is what the case may be, then perhaps I'll have to leave now. You do as you deem fit, okay?” She asked, turning towards the door once again."Okay, wait, please!” I called to her, swallowing hard. I wasn't entirely sure what I wanted, and I knew I didn't like the stone-cold gaze passed down to me, but I needed to make do with it until everything was all sorted out.“I like yo

EPISODE 33

ALEX'S POV.“You've been gone for a long time." Her cold voice called out to me as soon as I stepped inside the house. I switched on the light, and a chill ran down my spine while I gulped hard. She was there, seated in the darkness.“flora ?” I called out to her, wanting to be certain it wasn't her ghost or anything lingering around but herself. She had said nothing else to me but smiled brightly, biting against the apple she had, slicing through, a knife packed to the end of each.She tilted her head a bit before standing to her feet and approaching me. I staggered away! Her key is back against the door."Oh, please don't be such a kid now. I was hungry, that's all. I couldn't find you anymore at the party, so I figured you left. You know, to go to something that's better and more important than I was, which brings me down to the question, "Where have you been?” She finally inquired, and I could see the murderous glint in her eyes as she leaned closer to me, her eyes darting from si

EPISODE 34

"No, no,, not again.” Hayle ! uttered beneath her breath on the sudden realization that she forgot the file she had to work on tonight. Anger reeled into her seeing she had asked Vincent, the staff in charge, to watch for her, but both were half-hearted and forgot it. She left it sitting carelessly against the shelf where Stone could get access, just as easily. “Mommy?" he said to his mother while he climbed into the back seat. It was twenty-nine minutes past five, and Hayle knew she had better hurry, and the office would be locked in a matter of mere minutes.“Good evening. How was school today?” Hayle asked, hating on her mistake the most. She planned out the entire thing in her mind before leaving; it was a one-way thing. She decided to pick Andrew up from school sewing; she had a few hours to save for herself. She hoped that they had a little bit of chat before she got submerged in work once again, but she had been wrong. It was always one thing or another.“I'll have to drive

EPISODE 35

HAYLE’s POV.“Goodnight honey.” I greeted him and placed a light peck into his hair. I had been worried all day. After the accident, Dustin explained that all Andrew needed was a few days of rest and that it was already safe to go home; it was a little shock and a few tears that had been stitched up.Although some painkillers were administered to him, that had not changed the little part where I ought to have experienced a little bit of fear and panic as a parent. The only hope I had was that he would bring it all by himself.Although it had done Mr. a major favor by saying that he finally fell asleep without much trouble, hopefully he would not feel any pain till the day breaks, and although it was painful and healing, I just wanted it done as quickly as possible.Herald and all set in place, I stared long and hard at him. He had begun snoring, parting his lips, and ! tumbling gibberish. He looked lovely, like an angel he was, but only half of the time he was meddling in my affairs

EPISODE 36

“He's asleep already.” Hayle explained while she made her way out of the room that I had arranged for Andrew“Common, what's up with the both of you? What's the long face for? Winter-like, friends? And aren't we here to have some fun?'' Emily chirped in before picking up a triangle of pizza and chomping on it like the always bright and energetic lady she was.“She's right, I'm sorry for this tension; I just don't know if moving him around is safe yet; I mean, he needs rest and...”“And what again, Hayle ?" Emily imquited, cutting into her words with such great delight,“I know he needs rest, and you've been coupled up into the room for two whole days, Hayle , you need some. Besides, this isn't loud; it's just us having a little housewarming party for Dustin. We won't be throwing a crawl party, mam, just us three, some food and a movie, that's all. Maybe a couple of drinks, but you deserve it. We talked about this, remember? I see no reason why beating yourself up now would be worth q

EPISODE 37

ALEX POV.My hands tapped against the steering continuously with my mind aloof; my eyes were pinned against the road while I severed between lanes swiftly and fast. I only had one aim in mind, and it was none other than getting what I wanted—getting to hayle .Her funny, innocent smile had made me blush, but then hearing laughter in the background didn't sit well with me.I honked at the cat ahead of me. Cursing beneath my breath, seeing how slow he was, yet it had not seemed to be enough, especially when the push came to shove, it had seemed almost like he had a lot coupled up in his head.But I had far more important things to deal with at the moment, starting off from the point where she had spoken about having no idea where she was.I mean, hayle wasn't the type to go drinking around, and yes, it might probably not hurt having fun every once in a while, but it's the fact that there seemed to be something amiss.She had sent me a text saying it was forwarded to her, but still, eve

Episode 38

“Get away from me, you creep!” Emily screamed as soon as she pushed her eyes open. A sudden heavy migraine attacked her as soon as she had spoken, and just then did she realize how much alcohol she had drank the previous night.Dustin, on the other hand, split his eyes slowly, rubbing slowly on his orbs, trying to recall the compelling situation he found himself in. He recalled drinking a little the previous night, and then the new cycle followed up; they had a few more drinks with Hayle, yet as soon as Hayle made her way out of the house, she realized what a great deal of fun they were having and then drank some more. Then, after three asn, he had not stopped.He won't necessarily be expected in the office. Although he knows things might get awkward between him and Hayle, which is why he lied about having a thing or two to do, I was hoping that eventually, if she came to push, the entire thing would be off their shoulders. He took a quick glance around, his mind laced with a coupl

Episode 39

Hayle.“What do you think?.” I asked and swirled right in front of him, he looked rather exhausted but I wasn't done.“this is the one, it looks perfect I mean, it's the best it brings out your eyes and all.” he complemented with a smile, I turned my gaze from the mirror and glanced at him, slowly I approached him.“My eyes are blue, this dress is green, it does not bring out my eye color Alex , I told you to pay more attention to the color stripes, the design of the folds and curves of the dress.” I complained.A giggle came on from the other end, I glanced up and several workers scurried away in haste as they realized I caught them off guard.“Are we not done yet?.” Alex asked lazily but I rolled my eyes in my head , drew closer to him and snatched off a dress in his grasps.“Oh sorry, what was that again? Last I checked I warned you but you didn't want us taking much luggage along, saying we would buy new ones and you didn't stop to think clearly did you? I know you've got the mon

EPISODE 40

Hayles point of viewI shifted in my seat, my eyes pinned against the file placed in front of me, while I stuck up the ends of the pen into my teeth. I had been pondering the whole day on how to thank Alex; he had been nice enough, and I had sent him off in a rather hasty manner the previous day, which probably registered me as nothing better than a weirdo to the public as a whole, although I knew I needed to make certain amendments.“Hayle?.” a voice called, drawing me out of whatever fancy land I had been drawn into.“Yes, how may I help you, please?. '' he asked with a smile settled on my face as I responded to the young man who stood before me. He worked with Alex, so I knew almost immediately that it was related to him already.“Mr. Alex had asked for you, so I think it's in your best interest that you check with him right now; it seemed urgent.” He added at the end of his words and turned down his feet even before I got a chance to respond.I stood to my feet and grabbed the fol
