The alarm echoed through the building, red lights flashed along the hallways as people rushed down the stairs.

Yvonne followed Marcus and Adrian through the emergency exit. The cold air outside hit her face the moment they stepped out.

Employees gathered across the street, far from the building, some were breathing heavily, others looked confused and scared.

Everyone kept staring at the white van parked beside the service entrance.

It looked normal, too normal.

Marcus stood near the curb and lo

  • After The Divorce, He Regretted Everything    The Blackout

    The control room went dark. Every screen, every light, every sound, all gone.For a second, no one moved, no one spoke. It felt like the whole world had stopped.Yvonne stood still, her eyes were open, but she could see nothing.The silence was heavy then a low hum faded out, the last sound from the system and then there was nothing just complete darkness.“Adrian?” Marcus’s voice came through the dark.“I’m here,” Adrian replied.“What just happened?” Yvonne asked.Adrian answered slowly.“He shut everything down.”Marcus took a step forward.“Backup power?”Adrian replied,“Trying.”A few seconds passed then dim emergency lights flickered on.Red and soft, just enough to see shapes.The control room looked different now. Strange and unfamiliar like it was no longer theirs.Yvonne looked around, the screens were still black, no data, no system, nothing.Marcus turned to Adrian.“Can we bring it back?”Adrian moved toward a terminal, he pressed a few keys. Nothing.“It’s not respondi

  • After The Divorce, He Regretted Everything    The Spread

    The control room was no longer just tense, it was overwhelmed.The screens were filled with activity, dots kept appearing on the system map. Some were red, some were turning red, some were just starting to form.Yvonne stood at the center of it all, her eyes moved across the screen, trying to keep up but it was too much.“More are coming,” one analyst said.Marcus did not look away from the screen.“How many?”The analyst checked quickly.“Dozens… and increasing.”Adrian leaned forward, his hands were moving fast on the keyboard.“He’s using the network itself,” he said.Yvonne looked at him.“What do you mean?”Adrian pointed at the screen.“The system connects all these places.”Marcus nodded.“That’s the whole point.”Adrian continued.“Yes. But now he is using that connection to spread.”Yvonne felt a cold weight in her chest.“Like a chain reaction.”Adrian nodded.“Exactly.”The map changed again, more points lit up. The spread was faster now.Marcus spoke quickly.“We cannot ha

  • After The Divorce, He Regretted Everything    The Breaking Point

    The control room felt like it was closing in, no one had time to breathe. The screen in front of them told the truth they did not want to accept.Four red dots.Four locations under attack.Yvonne stood frozen for a second, her eyes moved from one red dot to another.Each one meant people, real people.Marcus stepped forward.“Split the teams,” he said. “We handle all of them.”Adrian shook his head.“We don’t have enough time for all at once.”Marcus looked at him.“We don’t have a choice.”The analysts looked at each other, they knew how hard this would be but they also knew they had to try.Adrian turned back to the system.“Assign each point to a team.”The room came alive again, people moved fast, commands were entered, screens changedFour different sections opened, each one focused on a different location.Yvonne stepped closer.“Show me the first one.”Adrian pulled up the details.“A small clinic,” he said.“Limited staff. Limited backup.”Yvonne felt her chest tighten.“What

  • After The Divorce, He Regretted Everything    The Map Turns Red

    The control room did not feel the same anymore, the main system was down.Most of the screens were still dark, only a few backup monitors were on, showing limited data.The air felt heavy, no one spoke for a moment.Yvonne stood in front of the only active screen, her eyes were fixed on the message.“I already have what I need.”Those words stayed in her mind.Marcus walked slowly across the room, his face was serious.“We missed something,” he said.Adrian did not argue, he was already at a terminal, trying to access the backup network.“This is not part of the main system,” he said.Yvonne looked at him.“Then what is it?”Adrian explained as he worked.“A secondary layer. It runs separately.”Marcus frowned.“Why was it not shut down with the rest?”Adrian paused for a second then he answered honestly.“Because it was not connected directly.”Yvonne felt uneasy.“So while we shut everything down…”Marcus finished the thought.“He stayed inside the one thing we didn’t touch.”The tr

  • After The Divorce, He Regretted Everything    The Edge Of Control

    The room was filled with tension, one spoke freely anymore.Only short commands.The progress bar on the screen kept moving.Eighty one percent.Eighty two.Yvonne stood close to the main console, her eyes were fixed on the screen, her hands were clenched tightly.“Stop it,” she said under her breath.Adrian was working fast, his fingers moved on the keyboard without pause.“I’m trying,” he replied.Marcus stood beside him, watching every move.“Block the upload path,” Marcus said.Adrian shook his head.“I already tried. It’s not coming from one path.”Yvonne looked at him.“What do you mean?”Adrian pointed to the system map.“It’s spreading across multiple nodes. He split the upload.”Marcus frowned.“So even if we block one…”Adrian finished.“The others continue.”The progress bar reached eighty five percent.One of the analysts spoke from across the room.“Sir, the system load is increasing.”Marcus turned.“How bad?”The analyst replied quickly.“Very high. The network is strug

  • After The Divorce, He Regretted Everything    The Weight Of The Choice

    The ambulances arrived one after another.Sirens cut through the night, sharp and urgent, lights flashed across the field, painting the tents in red and white. The sound alone told Yvonne this wave was worse than the last.She moved before anyone called her name.“Trauma teams to the front,” she or

    The medical tent was silent except for the steady beep of the monitor.Bright lights shone down on the operating table, reflecting medical metal instruments. The air smelled of disinfectant, outside, guards stood firm, and radios buzzed with low voices.She stood over the patient, hands steady, eye

    Night fell slowly.The hospital room was quiet, outside the window, the rain had stopped. Yvonne sat upright in bed, her back supported by pillows, her injured shoulder carefully secured.Her phone lay on the table beside her.Every second felt heavy.This was worse than the field, worse than chaos
