This entire week has been hectic, with all the assignments and helping Nina to get over her break up.
The only thing good that came out this entire week was the email of acceptance from Saint Andrews Memorial Hospital to start my residency next week.I'm so happy I'll get to work with prestigious people like Dr. Young and the others. I can't wait to tell Derrick the news.
He is on his way to pick Nina and I up for Clara Greenwoods memorial service. We are both dressed in white top and shorts.
"Did you take your candle?"I ask Nina who busily fixing her makeup
"yes and even her book"she says and I smile.
After a couple of minutes Derrick arrives and we sat inside his car and left for central park.
As we got to the ground we could see people already gathering over there."wow.. this place is packed"says Nina and I nod in agreement.
"well sorry for you guys. I gotta join my parents. See ya"Derrick says with a smirk before we all got down from the car and he left us.
"arrhgh.. I sometimes want to just punch his ugly face"Nina mutters and I laugh
"hurry, let's find a good place to stand"I say and dragged her into the mist of people.
After surfing through the crowd we found a good support and we began chatting among ourselves, occasionally involving others.
"Hey I'm Addy, from Yale university"the girl we just begun chatting with says.
Wow she must really have loved Clara.
"I'm Sienna and she is Nina and we are from NYU" I replied
"oh great then, I just couldn't stay home and watch her memorial, she was a very dear person to me"she says with a sad tone.
"wait, you knew her?" Nina asked
"yes,my sister is the mother of Arson's daughter,Arya Cooper"she says and my jaw drops.
Well we all know Arson's has daughter with his ex girlfriend which Clara decided to adopt since she wasn't strong enough for pregnancy.
We also know about the baby in the lap waiting for a carrier, sadly Clara didn't live long enough to see her second daughter.
As we continue to chat we here the microphone glitch and everyone queit down.
We turn to see Arson on the stage holding baby Arya with Clara's mom and brother along with other close friends and relatives.
"Good evening everyone. thank you all for coming, I appreciate all your efforts to make my wife's memory and birthday a rememberable one. My wife would be so happy wherever she is seeing all of you here making her memories live long. Thank you all for coming once again"Arson's says while wiping his tears.
Clara's mom took over the microphone and read about her daughters life and things she wanted to do that she couldn't do.
After speaking for half an hour she asked us to light our kind and we did.
We raised our yellow balloons which had a picture of her smiling beautifully. I could see Arson sobbing profusely on the stage.
He couldn't handle this, I can't even imagine the pain he is going through right now, watching your other half leave the world.
The tune of her song begun to play as her brother took the microphone to begin the song.
Sunday mornings were your favorite

Most the people were in tears and some of us had tears in our eyes. I spot Derrick taking Arson's off the stage and I immediately pull Nina to their direction.
After some minutes of searching for them,I finally spot them standing beside a black SUV with Arson's sobbing on Derrick's shoulders.
"Hey Dee , what is wrong?"I asked even I knew why.
"he is just going through alot" he replies
We all didn't know what to do but wait for him to calm down.
God above please help him.
Sienna's P.O.VAfter what seems like eternity, Derrick was finally able to calm him down.He wiped away his tears and turn our way and then he notices us. "sorry you guys had to see me this way" he mutters with a small smile,"It is okay, we understand the pain you are going through." I replied sympathetically "Ermm....Arson meet my friends Nina Killian and Sienna Greenwood. Guys meet Arson Cooper " Derrick says and Arson shakes our hand. He hands lingered mine for a while which brought butter flies into my stomach."what did you say your name was again?" he asked still holding my hands and looking at me." Sienna Greenwood " I replied and he looks at me shocked,"Wh....where do you come from?" he asks which made feel awkward because I don't like talking about my past with anyone"I was born in Italy but my origin is English" I answered "Are you by any chance related to Amanda Carlton?" he asks still in his shocked state"Yes that is my mother " I answer, okay this is getting anno
Sienna's P.O.VWe were given a tour around the hospital and when we passed through the sectors, we were shown the wards were they had renovated and changed to Clara Greenwood's ward,and we saw her formal room locked with flowers all over it. After the tour, we were assigned to different patient for the day and to say it was the best was an understatement. My patient Lindsey was cheerful and carefree and she didn't want her illness to bring her down. That is a good spirits.Finally the day has ended and we said our goodbyes to each other before leaving. Well, the boys and I said our goodbyes ,the other girls ,whose name I just learnt were Diana and Iris, didn't even bother to say bye,the just left in their car.I was outside waiting for a taxi when I heard my phone ring, I saw the number and I rolled my eyes.I debated whether to answer or not.I answer in an irritated tone anyway." What do you want mother?" I asked sharply" Good day to you too my daughter"she responded"Cut the cr
Sienna's P.O.V "You are not being serious Dee,you know I can't lie like that much less to your parents. They know me to be your best friend and suddenly I become your girlfriend. What will they think? They'll think I'm some gold digging whore after your money" I whisper yell into the phone, "please Sienna,you are the only one I trust. This is the only thing I'm asking of you. please don't deny me"he pleaded and I let out a sigh. "okay, when is the dinner party again? And what about your brother, wouldn't he get suspicious of us?"I asked "The dinner is tomorrow and don't worry about my brother,leave him to me" he says "Gosh,you owe me big time"I say and he lets out a chuckle "See you tomorrow and wear something pretty" he says before hanging up. Now what am I going to do. I hope this doesn't turn out to be messy. I take the snacks to Nina and we continued our movie night. When I woke up this morning the only thing on my mind was, what am I going to wear for the party. I had to
Sienna' P.O.VI immediately pushed her forward and she climbs the stage for her prize.She immediately signs me to come on the stage and I did.After receiving the prize and many photos of the media we immediately left because we had to prepare for the dinner party. We are now famous,I thought with a smile.Nina had always wanted to be an artist but her parents were against it. They wanted her to do law and but she opted for business rather.She would normally sing to me when I have one my episodes. It is now 5:30 pm and Chelsea is almost done with my hair.She came here right after her shift with all her tools. I can't believe the braids she did in Nina's hair. Her black hair makes it even more awesome. She finally straighten my blonde waves and I couldn't believe it was me I saw in the mirror.she styled it into a high pony tail and curled the tip into piggy tales. "Thank you so much Chelsea ,I love it" I tell her excitedly."Yh Chelsea,you did absolute and wonders with my wild
Sienna's P.O.V "You"we both say together as I gasp for air."wait do you two know each other"Dee asked suspiciously,I started fiddling with my fingers, anytime I do that it shows I'm nervous. The man give me a smirk and turn to face DeeOh no, he is going to tell Dee I fucked him just a few weeks ago and this isn't going to end well. I started panicking, trying to control my breathe"Yes, baby brother,I met her at the mall yesterday"he lies through his teeth. Wait what? Is that best lie he can come with. "Yes the mall, I'm sorry about the little incident"I say. What?I was just making the lie believable."oh you were the girl that sniffed his hair and stole his used napkin"Dee says raising an eyebrow in amusementNow my face looks like a red tomato and Dee burst out laughing along with his brothers.So much for lying."okay, okay, enough of the jokes.Let me introduce you to my brothers Daryl,Drew and Dean Hallson and guys meet my girlfriend Sienna Greenwood "Dee says and I smile pol
Sienna's P.O.VI started to panic hearing Dee calling me,fuck he is going to know.He can't know. If he knows he would stop talking to me, I don't want that. I thought as pace around the room nervously."could you please stop that. it is getting annoying" Dean groans"says you. Dee is really going to get pissed at us. He going think I fucked you his brother"I whisper yell and he raised an eyebrow"Just calm down and stop overthinking. Besides he knows I wouldn't sleep with you,so be chill. if you want I can go and distract him so you could sneak out later" he suggested and I shake my head" no..,I don't want to lie to him more than I already have. I'll go out " I say and straight my dress.I take a deep breath before answering him."I am in here Derrick " I say before approaching the door. As I was about to open to leave,Dee opens it almost knocking me on my butt.He looks at me then at Dean and eyes us suspiciously, I began to feel uncomfortable."What are you doing here babe?"he sa
Sienna's P.O.VToday is a new day a work for my Clinicals, we assigned to our various patients as usual,and we did all our rounds. I had to leave early today because ,I'm starting my therapy,Dean gave me another schedule because it was also his part time work and he had other things to do.Derrick has also being blowing up my phone for since I left the party,I just don't want to answer him ATM.My mom has also being calling me regularly from time to time to check up on me but I don't answer it most of the time.Mind you,all these was like a week ago, I kinda also miss derrick but he hurt me with his words.Nina has also been on her phone alot lately Andi don't want to pry into her personal life.I said my goodbyes to the boys and called for an Uber to pick me up. As I was sitting down,I spot Chelsea also coming towards the entrance of the hospital. Well, I didn't know she works here."Chels"I call before she notices me and come running to my side.We hugged each, like we are some lo
Sienna's P.O.V"So Miss Greenwood,why don't we start by telling me about yourself"he says writing something into the diary."okay...."I say before letting out a sigh"As you know my name is Sienna Greenwood,I'm 21 years of age. I'm in my final year of medical school with the hopes of becoming a neuro surgeon. I was in Italy but moved to America when I was six. I don't know who my dad is but I only know he is from England. That is all"I say looking anywhere but himI suddenly feel uncomfortable,"Sienna,no need to feel uncomfortable, what we talk about here staying here. it is all part of the confidentiality agreement"he says softly. "so whee is your safest place.
