DIANA

It was the dead of the night and I could not go to sleep. Everything felt too unreal and yet it was not a dream. It was really happening.

I was in my childhood bedroom, although the decorations remained the same, most of the furniture had been upgraded to fit my size.

The bed was bigger, so was the dresser and the bedside table and the wardrobe.

That was how things were throughout the house, the furniture had been replaced and neatly preserved. There was no speck of dust on any surface, it didn't look like this house had been sitting alone for years.

I was surprised and shocked when Jaylen drove us here. I could not believe that the house was still standing.

The last time I was here, my mom had sold it off to pay for her medications and treatment. We had to move out and find a small apartment while the new family moved in.

I remember catching my mom crying many times, the house had been built by her father and gifted to her. She wanted to preserve his memory but she could

    CAMILLE The doctor standing in front of me had kind eyes. He had treated me for my sprained ankle the last time I was here. He had also sewn the stitches. That was some weeks ago, the same day Neah died. A feeling, similar to guilt, tightened my chest but I shoved it away. Not now, not ever. “You were a bit concussed.” the man said as he approached my bed. “How do you feel now?” I felt lightheaded, all that tossing my head around and crying had cost me something at least. The doctors said that I wasn't pregnant and I had to pretend that I thought I was. And then I had to shed another set of tears trying to convince them that I thought I missed my period. It worked because they started comforting me and then they sent me to the VIP ward. “I would be better if someone called my boyfriend. Where is Nathan?”The man winced. “We've tried calling him but there's been no response. Have you tried calling him?” he shot the question right back at me and I had to pretend that it didn't st

    NATHAN The door was hard and thick, probably bullet proof and yet it didn't look like it. It looked like any ordinary door but Nathan couldn't get inside. Such an old house, he had underestimated the stregtnh of the house. Maybe it was built to look old so that no one would notice it, maybe it was a hideout or maybe it had been reinforced and remodelled but the owner didn't want to change the original design. Why would this house matter to Jaylen at all? Why would he bother to bring Diana here? There was a lot of frustration gathering deep within Nathan's chest and no matter how hard he knocked, no one was answering. But he knew someone was in because the lights were on. He was getting mad by the second. He slammed the door with his shoulder, hot white pain exploded through his entire body and he almost fell to his knees. I sucked air through gritted teeth and he waited for the pain to pass. It took a very long time before he was even able to breathe properly, let alone move his

    It was silent and still in the room. The air was not just heated but it was also charged.“Diana, you will let me help you.” It wasn't a request, it was like an order. “I understand that you want to be independent, but give me the chance to help you now, until you get back on your feet. I want to take care of you.”I did not need to fight this, or fight him. I knew that I didn't. I can trust him. I nod my head.“Okay. Until I get back on my feet.” “I was worried about you, and you wouldn't pick up your phone.” His eyes were soft and needing. He reached out and with his thumb, he made soothing motions on my bottom lip. I froze, because it was just like our shared moment in the kitchen before Ark interrupted. Thankfully. We would have made a mistake, if it led to a bed, we would regret it… Wouldn't we? I wouldn't. The realization hit me and my pupils dilated in shame, I was angry because Ark interrupted but if there was no one to bear witness to it, I wouldn't be ashamed. It wo

    Camille did not know her next move, she had no plan. She was acting purely under instincts and for some reason, it was working. The look on Diana's face was laughable, she felt like taking a picture so she could glance at it anytime she was sad. Such a naive bitch.Camille grabbed her belly and rolled. “The ambulance is coming.” someone said“What about the cops?” a waitress asked, keeping an eye on Diana. “They're on their way.” Camille paused mentally, tears rolled down her eyes and her act was very believable but what would happen when they took her to the hospital and said that there was nothing wrong with her? What would happen when the ambulance came and saw no signs of injury. Her heart jumped madly in her chest but she would not back out now. She had to fall through with her plan. “Look, she's getting away!” someone yelled and Camille looked in time to see Diana running. She was fast. The security men tried to catch her, they went from different angles but for a reason,

    JAYLEN The word angry felt too thin to compare the giant amount of emotions beating around my chest and flowing through my veins. “You better have cancer.” I said as I entered the office. If Ark heard what I said, he made no show of it. He casually walked over to the swivel chair and sank into it. He turned his attention not to me, but to the window and he gazed out of it for a few seconds before turning to me. “I didn't really mean to interrupt you.” He said. A lie. “I don't believe you.”“I checked the entire house and there were no signs of you. You left the house unguarded.” he stared at me with a look that resembled disgust. “Imagine I was someone else. Imagine it was–” “No one is after my life, Ark. There is no danger.” a lie that I'd been trying to convince myself of. As long as I'm Jaylen, there might always be danger. And I was trying to change that, for Diana. “Do you sincerely see a future with her?” Ark asked but I had no inclination to answer him. He saw throug

    I went to my bedroom feeling distraught and ashamed. I shouldn't have done that. He did not want me like that, he was just lying. I could still taste him on my lips, I could still feel the burning trail his fingers left on my skin. There were too many things running through my head. I opened my laptop and I saw that it had several notifications. I tapped on the email icon and I saw two new emails from Nathan and one from Camille. My finger hovered over the touch pad, why would Camille ever send me an email?? I tapped on the message and my eyes scanned through it. It was a very short message and it said only one thing. Meet me at Yara, it's a five star restaurant . I have a reservation there. Also, I have an important message for you. You might want to hear it. ***Diana sat opposite the blue eyed woman who was her ex husband's mistress. The atmosphere in the room was charged and the tension between them could be felt from afar. Diana could see that one side of Camille's face wa
