Out of breath and visibly annoyed, Bruce returned to Malikha’s porch. Malikha looked at him awkwardly, lowering her gaze in regret.

"Why were you out with him? You know he's dangerous, right?" Bruce said, raising his voice slightly.

"He didn't do anything, Bruce," Malikha defended Aidan. Bruce grew more agitated, while Malikha stayed tense and defensive.

"Malikha, don't forget he once locked you up in his apartment! He's the reason for your depression. Have you forgotten all that so

    Aidan tried to process what he was hearing. He wanted to pinch himself, but knew he’d look ridiculous. So he just stood there with his mouth open and his eyes wide, blinking repeatedly. He was completely lost for words, standing like an idiot in front of Malikha. Watching him, Malikha grew concerned."Aidan, are you okay?" she asked, a worried look on her face.Aidan, still floating somewhere in outer space, snapped back to reality. "Ah... what?"Malikha’s expression fell. It seemed like he hadn't processed a word she’d said over the last few moments. Pouting slightly, she took a step back. "It's nothing, never mind," she said with a forced smile, turning to head inside.Panic set in, and Aidan immediately caught her arm. "Ah... w-wait... where are you going? B-But you just said... you... we..." he stammered, utterly flustered.Malikha turned back, her innocent gaze making his heart skip a beat.Oh, God, she’s so beautiful... No, Aidan, now is not the time! He screamed in his head. He

    After calling Raphael, Malikha felt even more certain about her decision to become friends with Aidan again. She knew obstacles lay ahead, but she had only one goal: ensuring her baby wouldn't grow up without a father.Having lost both of her parents to death, Malikha didn't want her child to endure the same pain—growing up, navigating adolescence without parents, and surviving all alone. At the same time, she didn't want to force things by tracking Aidan down and demanding he take responsibility. But when he reappeared as a changed man, she didn't push him away.Both Aidan and Malikha were holding back, taking things step by step. Yet, as Aidan’s comforting presence made her feel increasingly at ease, she felt confident enough to start involving him in her pregnancy.Meanwhile, right after hanging up with Malikha, Raphael called Aidan. He wanted to warn and advise his best friend so he wouldn't make the wrong move this time."I know you're trying to get close to Malikha, and this is

    "Was it really that easy for Vanylla to fall in love with you?" Aidan asked sarcastically. Mars scratched the back of his neck with a grin."No, she hated me for years. But she came back to me, so the chances of Malikha coming back to you are even higher!" Mars retorted defensively. Aidan could only sigh and shake his head."It's not that simple, Mars. Malikha went through depression because of me—I have to be careful. Plus, she has Bruce hovering over her like a Doberman!" Aidan grumbled in frustration. Mars chuckled, leaning in closer."What happened?""I ran into him earlier. He told me I shouldn't go near Malikha anymore.""Ah, what a wimp!" Mars cursed reflexively."He threatened me, saying he won't let it slide if I dare approach her again." Mars let out a cynical snort."Oh yeah? What can he actually do?" Aidan shrugged."You're not scared of him, are you?" Mars asked with a raised eyebrow. Aidan frowned."Why would I be scared of him? I'm more scared of you!" Aidan quipped, ga

Bruce grew more agitated, while Malikha stayed tense and defensive."Malikha, don't forget he once locked you up in his apartment! He's the reason for your depression. Have you forgotten all that so easily?" Bruce demanded, barely suppressing his anger. Malikha stayed silent, feeling torn between his warning and her own confusion, and Bruce realised he was scaring her."I'm sorry, sweetheart. I didn't mean to make you anxious or afraid. I'm just so worried about you," Bruce said, stepping closer and reaching for her hand. Malikha didn't pull away, but she didn't say anything either."Malikha... I don't want to see you get hurt again. He hurt you deeply before.""I just want to rest. Beside

    "Why would she even want to see me? Didn't you tell me yourself that I'm her biggest trauma?" Aidan countered.“So you're just giving up that easily? I only said that because I thought you'd fight harder! I never expected you to throw in the towel like this!”"What?" Aidan asked, caught off guard.“Aidan, I know you love Malikha, and I know what you did in the past was awful. But you can change for the better and win her back. Fight for your love the right way, not by running away!” Raphael urged.Aidan fell silent, taking a deep, heavy breath."Look, it’s up to you now. I'm not going to force you to see her if you don't want to.""I want to... I want to so badly. But how could she ever take me back?"“Start by getting close to her. Don't rush into romance. Build a foundation as friends first. If Malikha really loves you, she'll find her way back to you,” Raphael said.Aidan frowned, wondering why two of his closest friends were suddenly giving him the same advice—First Arjoona, and n

    Lucy McClaine took a few days off after Aidan went missing for two days. She was granted leave after her boss unexpectedly made the evening news, caught on camera at the scene of a robbery wearing SWAT gear. Having watched the broadcast, Lucy’s suspicions were confirmed—she had already noticed Aidan and Glenn coming back injured multiple times with no clear explanation.Dressed in casual, comfortable clothes, Lucy spent a dull afternoon aimlessly flipping through TV channels to avoid any news about Aidan or Glenn. Bored, she stood up to tidy her living room, even though it wasn't messy. The doorbell interrupted her plans.Walking over with heavy, reluctant steps, she opened the door and froze. Glenn, who had been staring at the ground, raised his eyes to meet hers."What are you doing here?" Lucy asked, her tone sharp."Don't I always come here when I'm hurt?" Glenn replied, instantly irritating her."Does this look like a hospital to you? I'm not your servant, Glenn Matthews!" Lucy s

    Malikha didn’t sleep that night. After Aidan left, she stared emptily, thinking about his apology—not because of the job offer. Aidan had changed in a click. The way he had looked at her before he left somehow made her blush, and she couldn’t stop. Her conscience told her to leave, but her heart as

    Malikha forced a smile as she walked into her mom’s room, steadying her breath before anyone could notice the tension in her shoulders. The moment her eyes landed on the tall, handsome, mature man standing near the bed, her smile stretched wider.“Good afternoon, Mr. Caesar,” she greeted politely,

    The way he called her made her stomach drop. He left before she could respond. At the same time, Malikha stood frozen in the middle of the bar. Her pulse wouldn’t slow.There was a strange ache in her chest. Why did that man feel like a ghost from a life she tried to forget?Meanwhile, Aidan slamme

    “Please don’t throw me out. I have nowhere else to go, Mr. Bradford.”Malikha heard the tremor in her own voice and despised it. She had spent years learning how to stand straight, even when the world pushed her down. She had learned to smile when customers looked at her as if she were something ch
