Pak! Pak! Pak!
Nicolas was pressing the horn continually to clear the long line of cars in front of him. An annoyed expression darkened his handsome face. No matter how much he honked from behind there was no way for him to reach home fast as the line was really long and seemed endless. Sighing he stopped the car engine then looked out the window while running his fingers through his hair.
Exactly on the opposite of the road a bookstall drew his attention. He was staring outside blankly, when his mind was busy replaying all the incidents of the evening. He sensed an odd twinge of disappointment. Somewhere deep inside him, he knew that no matter how much he was going to fight Dad was never going to listen to him. Since his childhood, nobody gave any value to his feelings, his desire, his wishes. His parents always forced him to do what was going to be beneficial for them and fo
“Mom, you are looking so beautiful. I am worried that you will steal the limelight tonight.” “You little punk! Are you jealous of your mom now?” Daisy asked teasingly while combing the raven black hair of Dawn. Dawn was looking like a little male doll in the fancy black tuxedo. He looked more like Nicolas in that formal clothes. “Of course I am. if you steal all the attention then nobody will look at me, “ Little Dawn complained while caressing his mother’s cheeks. But after a tiny pause, he added while pulling Daisy’s cheeks, “So soft. My mommy is the best.” Giggling Daisy patted her son affectionately. Then placing a quick kiss on dawn’s cheek, she stated, “And you are the most handsome boy here. Happy Birthday, my little dawn. Mom loves you the most. Now go and attend to the guests. Granny is waiting for you i
“Who are you?”With a charming smile, Nicolas knelt in front of the little boy and picked him up from the ground. Then place a small kiss on his chubby cheek, Nicolas replied, “I am your mother’s friend. You can just call me Uncle.”“Mother’s friend! My mother never talked about it or I have never seen you in my house. Why should I trust you? Mom said not to talk with strangers. What if you are also an evil stranger who wants to steal me,” the kid immediately complained, pouting his lips. But his eyes were scanning Nicolas’s face, after a little pause, he added with a relaxed expression on his face, “But you don’t look like a kidnapper though.”“Really? So how do I look?” Nicolas asked with his mysterious smile. He just met with the
“At last I found you.”Startled, Daisy looked back and saw Nicolas was staring at her with a devilish smirk on his face. She saw the heart-rending tenderness of his gaze. Daisy immediately tried her wrist to set free from his grip forcefully but his grip was so strong that all her attempts went in vain.“Don’t try. I am not going to leave your hand anymore,” Nicolas murmured in his low and weak tone. There was a maddening hint of arrogance in his tone.“Let my hand go. Why are you awake? You should be sleeping to recover first,” Daisy replied in a shaky tone, inhaling sharply. The sudden touch of Nicolas caught her off-guard, making her shiver in familiar awareness.Pulling her a little closer to his body, Nicolas whispered, stil
(6 years later. In Santa Ana)“Madam, a new patient has arrived from an accident case. He has lost too much blood and is in critical condition. You have to come,” A nurse in white dress entered inside the cabin and stated in an impatient tone. From her tone, it was clear that she was in a hurry.“But my working hours are over already. It is midnight already. Where is Dr Park? Contact him and ask him to come,” the lady doctor replied while packing her bag. That day was quite a long day for her. She had six long surgeries that day and then checked on the other patients. So she was already too drained after so much work.“Hello, Dr Park, there is a new patient. Come as fast as possible. He has already lost too much blood,” the nurse already started calling when the lady doctor came o
Where is Nick?”“Nick is not here. He left the moment he saw the video,” Jason replied, looking at Daisy with startled eyes. Along with Daisy, Helen also entered the room.Grabbing Daisy’s wrist, she stated, “Daisy. I am sure that Nick is working on finding the truth behind it. You just calm down and wait for him.”“I am already calm. Just tell me where is Nick?” Daisy murmured impatiently.Alex replied from behind in his calm tone. “He is on the rooftop. But I will suggest that you shouldn’t meet him.”But even before Alex could finish his sentence Daisy started running in the direction of the rooftop. On the way, she collided with a few students from th
With the loud sound of the alarm on her phone, Daisy woke up from sleep and found herself on the bed of the hotel room. Squinting her eyes several times sleepily, Daisy sat on her bed, rubbing away the sleep from her eyes.“Ugh! My head! What’s wrong with it!” Daisy murmured while holding her head. Her head was feeling extremely heavy at that moment and it was hard for her to open her eyes properly.Checking the room with a glance, Daisy decided to sleep again. There was no sign of Helen in the room. Even her bed was neatly organized so it was clear that she didn't return yet and the clock was showing only 7 am.Daisy laid down again and instantly fell asleep. The heat of her body already reduced at that moment but her cheeks were still red like tomatoes and there was a small red hickey
