Bianca's POV

“Why can't he just leave me alone.” I rhetorically asked myself as soon as Raymond closed the door behind him.

Trying to calm myself down, I took a deep breath and gulped down the remaining drop of water in the cup.

I had to be strong, for my own sake. I couldn't let anyone see me weak, or worse take advantage of my current situation, especially not after what I had just gone through.

I won't!

I smoothed out my hospital gown, trying to compose myself before the guest who the nurse had said was here to see me came in.

“But who could it be?” I asked myself. “I wasn't expecting anyone. Or did my former assistant and friend find out I was here?”

“Well whoever it is. His or her presence was what I actually needed to scare off and drive away Raymond.”

I closed my eyes, steeling myself for whatever was about to happen. And then, I heard the door to my hospital room swing open.

I opened my eyes, and my heart sank. Standing in the doorway, with a smug look on her face, was

  • Bianca's reclaimed heart   035: An old scare.

    The morning sun scotched my face as it ruthlessly found its way into my bedroom. I slowly opened my eyes, groggily taking in the scorching sunlight streaming through the windows bit by bit. My head was pounding, a dull ache that seemed to reverberate through my entire body. I tried to sit up, but a wave of dizziness washed over me, forcing me to lie back down."Good morning, sir," a voice said, breaking through the fog in my mind.I turned my head, squinting at James, who was standing beside my bed, a look of concern etched on his face."Yea… Good morning,” I managed to reply, my voice husk and grumpy. “How long have you been here?” “Few seconds ago,” he replied. “I thought it wise to check up on you since you didn't come down at your usual time in the morning sir.” “Huh…what time is it?" I croaked, my voice still rough from sleep."It's nine, sir," James replied, his voice soft and gentle.I rubbed my temples, trying to massage away the headache. Last night's events came flooding

  • Bianca's reclaimed heart   034: An intruder.

    I yanked open the car door, my grip firm on its handle, and slid into the passenger seat, slamming the door shut behind me. James looked at me in the rearview mirror, his eyes concerned. He knew better than to talk to me when I was in this kind of mood. I paid no attention to his expressions, but I just shook my head, before allowing it to rest on the neck aid attached to the seat.The evening sky seemed to be in the same mood I was in, cloaking itself in a dark navy blue hue. But the stars shining above mocked me, their twinkling lights like a cruel joke. The cool night air slapped me in the face like a wake-up call. But I was already wide awake, my anger and frustration still simmering, like a pot left unattended on the stove.The drive home was a blur. I stared out the window, my mind racing with thoughts of Bianca, of the police, of the anonymous tip that had set this whole nightmare in motion. Who could have done such a thing? And why? The questions swirled in my head like a vor

  • Bianca's reclaimed heart   033: suspect!

    I paced back and forth in the small, drab room, my anger simmering just below the surface like a pot about to boil over. Almost an hour. That's how long I'd been waiting. No one had bothered to come and talk to me, no one had even offered me a glass of water. The fluorescent lights above flickered, casting eerie shadows on the walls."Tsk! What a day," I grumbled, my voice low and menacing. To think that a person like me, with so much respect from the position my family occupied in the city, a pillar of the community, would be treated like some kind of common criminal. Today had really come in all shades of red.As I boiled over with anger, the door creaked open, and I spun around, my eyes blazing with fury. "About time," I snapped, my voice rising like a thunderclap. "I've been kept waiting for almost an hour. What kind of incompetence is this?"The chief investigator, a tall, imposing man with a calm expression, walked into the room. He looked new, I hadn't seen him around before. H

  • Bianca's reclaimed heart   032: the police.

    “Sir, I had to send the driver home. Would drive you instead, sir.” James spoke out after a long silence between us as we headed to the hospital car park. Still wrapped in deep grief and sadness, I nodded in acknowledgement, not letting a word leave my lips. It was past nine when I settled into the back seat of my sleek black Sedan car with tinted windows. I couldn't believe I had spent the whole day at the hospital. “Home, sir?" James asked immediately after bringing the engine back to life as his eyes met mine in the rearview mirror.I nodded. "Yes, home."As James pulled out of the hospital parking lot, I leaned back in my seat and closed my eyes, feeling the soft hum of the engine and the gentle motion of the car. For a moment, I forgot all the past events of the day as the cool night air rushed past my face, carrying the scent of blooming flowers and fresh-cut grass.As we drove, my eyelids began to grow heavy, my body relaxing into the soft slumber of sleep. I try to fight i

  • Bianca's reclaimed heart   031: "come back to me, my love."

    Raymond’s POV After several hours of waiting, and receiving the news my doctor friend gave me about our newborn, the chief surgeon finally came out. “Good evening, Mr Greg.” He greeted, his voice professional but calm as he pulled out the surgical mask he wore over his nose and mouth. “I’m so sorry about the loss of your child… your…” “Please, just tell me, don't patronize me. I can handle it.” I impatiently spoke, taking the doctor's words from his mouth. “Well, Mr Greg. Your wife isn't dead if that's what you mean but, she drifted into a coma after the operation. So now all we can do is wait while we try to provide her reasons for her to fight back and return to us.” I was shocked. Today I have to win the Guinness record for the worst day of my life. “Ca…can I at least see her?” I muttered, my voice dipped in grief. “Can I see my wife please?” “I don't think…” “Please, doctor.” I pleaded, wiping off the tears that slowly streamed down my eyes. “If you insist. But please, t

  • Bianca's reclaimed heart   030: critical condition.

    I couldn't believe the sight before me. One second Bianca was glowing and smiling as she stood beside me, and now she was covered with blood struggling for her own life. “Please stay with me,” I managed to utter, “We are almost there.” I added as I held her hand, trying to get her to stay with me. But her eyes were glazing over, her pupils dilating. I could feel her slipping away from me, and I was powerless to stop it."No, no, no," I whispered, my voice shaking with desperation. "Don't leave me, Bianca. Please don't leave me."The room around us was a blur of chaos and confusion. People were shouting, crying, and screaming. But I was focused solely on Bianca, trying to keep her with me.I felt a hand on my shoulder, and I turned to see one of our friends, a doctor, kneeling beside me. "Raymond, we need to get her to the hospital, now, or else we would lose her." he said, his voice firm and urgent.I nodded, still ho
