Doctor Wright handed me a small paper bag filled with pill bottles. Suppressants, he called them. Medications to hold Lily over for at least a week, to give her body a fighting chance while I made a decision.

“This isn't a cure,” he said, leaning against his desk. The office was small, cluttered with medical journals and framed photos of his own children. “It's a bridge. It'll keep her stable, but it won't fix the underlying problem. The trial is still her best option.”

I looked down at the bag

    Mira rolled her eyes and nodded. “I was going to say I left my gas on.”"Could this week get any worse? What if you were inside? What if you were sleeping?""I wasn't." Mira picked up the bowl and stirred. "If they wanted to kill me, I wouldn't be sitting here. The house was just a warning…" She trailed off. “Setting my house was just warning to me, of all the things to set on fire, or vandalize. Which is what baffles me.” She set the bowl down again. “That guy isn't one to go around burning houses to pass a warning.”Chloe narrowed her eyes. "What?""I pissed him off badly. But I don't think he did this."“Are you trying to defend him right now?""No.” She turned to face Chloe. “This guy wants to kill me. But definitely not like this. He's a torture-obsessed freak who enjoys the chase, like a cat and mouse game, if I enjoy a good chase I won't set my victim on fire or their house on fire without letting them know it's me. You know, to instill fear. He wants to catch me and scare me a

    Mira jumped down the slide and walked to where Keisha was thanking the guests and offering to treat them to dinner or mow their lawn."It's not gas, is it?" Keisha whispered, looking around to see if anyone heard her. "I mean, yeah, it's gas. But you didn't leave it on, did you?"Mira shook her head, shrugging. "I'm not sure yet. I've been absentminded lately because of everything with Lily. I might have left it on."She didn't believe that. Keisha probably didn't either. But Mira couldn't drag her into this. Keisha's nosiness was what got her involved in her work life, she was too suspicious and never kept her eyes on her route. If she knew more, she'd be next.Keisha narrowed her eyes, “Yeah…sure, I'm going to take it that you also don't know what happened–”"I'll leave the boxes at your place," She Cut her off. "I'm staying at the hospital with Lily, so I won't be home for a while."Keisha nodded. "Right. How is she doing? What did they say"Mira shrugged. She didn't have the energ

    Mira's ran across the lawn to meet her. She grabbed Keisha by her good arm and pulled her close like she might disappear if she didn't hold on tight."What happened to you?" Her voice came out shrill. She looked at the sling, and at the bandage peeking out from under the sleeve. "Why are you in a sling? Did—" She tried to touch the arm.Keisha winced. "It's just a burn, and the paramedics already patched me up. I'm fine.""Fine? You're in a sling, Keisha. That's not fine. Did you go into the fire?"Keisha shook her head, her curly hair bouncing with the movement. "I ran in to grab the plates I left at your place during movie night. Remember? The blue ones? I wanted to make lunch because I had a guest coming over and those are the only plates that match my—""A guest coming over? You're dating someone new?" Mira blinked, momentarily distracted. "Wait, never mind, not the point. Go on, what happened? Did you see how it started?""Not all guests are dates, Mira." Keisha said it like it w

    THIRD PERSON POVMira sat in the plastic chair beside Lily's hospital bed, one eye on the sleeping girl, the other on an email from her editor demanding to know why she hadn't filed anything in days now. The room was almost quiet except for the soft beeping of the monitors and Lily's shallow breathing. Eva has been gone since morning, off to beg the De Luca Foundation for a miracle, and Mira volunteered to stay behind because someone had to keep watch.The phone buzzed in her hand. She looked down at the unknown number and almost ignored it. Too many of those lately…okay, maybe ever since forever.It could be someone calling to threaten her or it could be someone with a good secret to share, bit she doubted it was the latter, she has more haters than following. Well, that was mainly because she's dug up all the dirty pasts of her celebrities followers and now they're all the enemies.The call end and came back almost immediately again. Mira sighed, taking it."Hello?""Is this Mira K

    Is this funny? Cause this is funny to me."Sit." He gestured vaguely at the chair across from his desk and pulled it another book. I nodded and sat…because my legs were about to give out anyway. The leather was cold against my thighs, I folded my hands in them to stop them from shaking.He didn't say anything else and just began flipping through a file, his grey eyes scanning the pages like I wasn't even in the room.The awkwardness was unbearable.I have no idea what to say or do. Lia already recapped my reason for visiting to him so would it be more awkward if I do it again? I glanced away from the flipping he was flipping to his face. He seemed perfectly comfortable, and not in any way as jumpy as I was.Is he pretending not to know me? He’s probably mad at me for blocking him when he did nothing, if I was him I'd be mad too. While I understand that everyone has a thing or two about their life that goes south once in a while, I'd rather they explain to me than ghost me and bruis

    “What's going on here?”Dante?DANTE?!What the— My head snapped up before I could stop it, and there he was. Standing just inside the doorway, his grey eyes fixed on the woman behind the desk like she was the only person in the room. I slowly rose, moving to the side, partly to confirm if I was seeing things and also my knees were starting to hurt.Did he see me?Or maybe he had and was choosing to ignore me. Either way, he looked different than I remembered.Wait! What was he even doing here?He doesn't look like a single father or married. He wouldn't be that flirty if he was married.The woman sprang up from her chair as if it was on fire, she rounded the desk towards him. "Sir, I wasn't expecting you until this afternoon.""I can see that." He unbuttoned his jacket as he walked to the desk and shrugged it off, draping it over the back of the chair she just vacated. "Of course." The woman smoothed down her skirt, composing herself. "This is Eva Bishop. She arrived a few minutes
