Claire's POV We stared at each other, eye to eye it was like hypnosis in a whole new form, I lost control over my body. What made matters worse was his smile.It wasn't just charming, it was contagious like a transmittable disease.I wanted to see this whole new world he told me about. Maybe then I'll believe all he's been saying, but where will I begin from?But the real questions include how do I leave the house, I'm grounded, what excuse do I give to my dad? Would he even listen to me?“Are you ok Claire?” David whispered, tapping me on the shoulder.It took me three minutes to reply, I was still hypnotized by him.“I'm fine Dave, what I am thinking about now is what to tell my dad so he would let me leave the house. I have no idea what excuse I would give him.” I whispered.Suddenly, I remembered my father’s advice about meeting with my childhood friend Desmond Baggins. I would lie to my dad that I want to go see him, that M's the only way he'd let me go.Wow, why didn't I think o
Claire's POVWhat exactly does Don Carlos want from me? What's he doing at my house! We had a good time together and he ghosted me, and minutes later I saw him with another lady.What does take me for one of his girlfriends or what am not in for such useless competitions it's either me or no one else.“Big sis! A guy is at the door and he wants to see you!I saw his face from the window. He's so charming! Violette, one of my sisters, screamed.“Go to your room Violette!” I snapped at her. I heard her footsteps as she ran to her room. It gave me migraine headaches.These headaches were as a result of the shock of the accident, and I thought about the cab driver. I hope he survived the accident before. If he should die I wouldn't forgive myself.I still needed answers for everything starting from his disappearance, and what he was doing with that other lady, and what he was doing at the hospital.I had to come to terms with the fact that I loved him, I know myself very well, I can't be j
Claire's PovI lay on the hospital bed there, as my eyes kept closing and opening.I could see my parents, the doctors and nurses all staring at me, their eyes showing fear and desperation.I lost control over my consciousness, all I could think about was the name I just heard.David Don Carlos Was he the one who brought me to the hospital? How did he know about the accident? Was he watching me all this while? I hope the cab driver is ok.These thoughts clouded my mind as I struggled to breathe.I could hear voices echoing around the ward, these voices were very strange because they echoed like microphone speakers.I noticed that my parents and friends were getting restless and uneasy, I could feel it.Their stares bothered me. I tried talking but I couldn't breathe well so it didn't allow me to speak.This whole incident has messed up my life, I blame only one person and that's David.If I wasn't looking at him when I saw him with that other girl on the road this accident wouldn't ha
Claire's PovI walked around the dark room for hours. I shouted for help. My voice echoed around the room if it was obvious that I was all alone.I reluctantly rested on the floor and closed my eyes. Suddenly I saw a bright light. I opened my eyes and saw myself on a hospital bed though I couldn't see clearly.I became confused and yelled.“How did I get here? What am I doing here?” I asked Curiously.“Calm down Claire! You've been in a coma for almost a week now!” a voice yelled.When I heard this I became terrified. I couldn't believe it. How come? So the few hours I spent in that dark room is equivalent to a week in a coma. oh no I whispered to myself.I couldn't make out the person who just told me about being in a coma. So I struggled to open my eyes when I finally opened them. It was the doctor.“What do you mean by that? How is that possible? I just had an accident yesterday? This isn't possible at all!” I yelled continuously drawing the arts of other doctors and nurses.Sudde
Claire's Pov I stood there, still wondering why David Don Carlos ghosted me like that. I could smell something fishy behind this but I still couldn't figure out what it was.I couldn't bear it anymore so I walked up to all my friends and notified them about Dave's sudden disappearance.Their reaction was very strange, I expected them to show surprise but they didn't. Their faces were giving me a different vibe which meant only one thing.So I confronted them with questions.“Ciara! Matilda! Eliana you all don't look surprised why? Is this some sort of set up or something? Please tell me!” I yelled eagerly.“Calm down Claire! Let us explain!” Matilda yelled.“Go on, I'm listening.” I whispered.“Claire, don't mind our reaction! It's just that that guy is fond of that! He ghosts people a lot but we think this was due to an emergency because Eliana here told me that she saw him after the call and he was acting very strange. Isn't that true Eliana?” Matilda yelled.“Yes it's true Claire
Claire's PovThere I sat in anticipation, my thoughts clouded by worries about the sort of games my friends were playing.“You look so beautiful in this blindfold,” a manly voice whispered to me.“Who are you? I asked curiously.But I didn't get any response so I asked again.“Who are you?”“I'm Alias Dave-Don Carlos, son of Marcel Huston Carlos.” He whispered.The names I just heard were so intriguing there was something unique about them that caught me attention.Wow, that's a lot of names!” I yelled.“Yes Dave is a short form for David meaning dearly beloved while Alias means lion. Don means Boss while Carlos means Strong together they mean the sentence “The beloved Lion, and powerful Boss.” Wow, that explains the dominant voice you have.” I whispered.“You can say that again.” he whispered as he gently unbuttons the top of his shirt.Though I was able to recognize only the surname Carlos. Because I heard it from one of my friend's lips during one of our gossip sessions. “Wait, a
