He was in his office, sitting calmly on his chair, indulged in a deep thought. 

His eyes were focused on something more particular, a picture stuck between his rough fingers. He was staring at the younger version of the girl, he met just a few hours ago. 

She was still the same, just got more beautiful and skinny after hitting puberty. 

"I'm surprised Christopher, the fate made me meet with your daughter again" he smirked maliciously. 

Flash back

"Sir, her name is Ruby Jane, the daughter of a man named Christopher Adams. He died in a car accident seven years ago. Her mother named Samantha is currently admitted in hospital, almost dying die to a heart disease. Samantha knew about the murderer of her husband who hit and ran that night. And she went to court and filed a case against......" Joseph stopped hastily, not daring to utter the name in front of his boss. In fear he batted his eyes lashes, and waited for him to react. 

"Go on" he commanded, like he already knew very well about it. 

"Mr Wayans, the owner of Wayans enterprises, currently called Dawson enterprises. But she failed and lost the case against the other party. She got into depression and struggled to raise her daughter alone. But currently due to Angina pectoris, her heart has failed and she needs a transplant which her daughter can't afford. So doctors have declared her almost dead" he ended reading the research paper from laptop which he got from his spying agents. 

"Great work" he complimented and started gazing out of the black window and focusing on nothing particular but fumbling with the ongoing thoughts in his busy mind, ignoring the light voice of his assistant saying thankyou in return. 

Flash back ends

He picked up his phone from the table, dialling the number of his personal assistant. 

"Come inside" he cut the call immediately, casually sliding the phone again on glass table.

All night she kept checking every corner of her house to find something useful which she can sell and get money in return. Her mother already used all of her jewelry in paying her school fees.

She tried breaking her piggy money box but no luck to that. She found only few pennies which were barely 100$. 

In frustration she pulled on her hair and closed her eyes tightly, trying to escape the bitter reality from her sight. How she will save her? 

Losing hope she got up, collecting those few dollars in her hand and stuffing them inside her purse. 

Then she went inside the bathroom and took a shower, tired from the sleepless night. She came out after ten minutes and put on her yellow, summer ankle length dress. 

Combing her hair, she tied them into a ponytail, letting the bangs cover her forehead. She looked cute just as her mother always told her. 

With a heavy heart she picked up her purse and wrecked phone. Tying the laces of her worn sneakers she headed out on her way to hospital. 

As she was walking on her way, her wandering eyes discovered a flower shop beside the footpath on which she was walking. 

Without a second thought, she flew inside the shop. She knew how much her mother adored the smell of orchids. 

The female seller handed her the fresh purple orchids, ensemble in a bouquet. 

She took out the dollars from her purse and motioned them towards her, taking the bouquet in return. 

She faked a heavy smile plastered on her face, although her eyes were dark and empty. 

"Do you know what purple orchids symbolize?" The woman asked her rather interestedly. 

"I have no idea" she replied plainly. 

"They mean respect, dignity and admiration. If you wanna give them, then give them to somebody you love but respect more" she replied with shining eyes, happiness visible on her face. 

"Thankyou I'll come again." She replied meekly not able to contain her control anymore at her words. 

She could hear the woman gesturing her goodbye at her back as she rushed out of the shop.

Setting herself free from the act, she let herself breath again in the cold, fresh air of morning. Although nothing could comfort her but it was calming to her nerves. No wonder why people feel relax and healthy after a morning walk. 

She reached the bus stand and waited for the bus. After a while the bus arrived and she got in. 

It took her almost an hour to reach the hospital. She greeted the nurse in her way as she motioned herself to her mother's ward. 

As she entered the glass room, she became the centre of attention of all the doctors as they all averted their heads in her direction, disrupted by the squeaky noise of the closing door. 

"Hi" she greeted them all and lightly bowing her head in respect. 

"We were waiting for you Miss Ruby, that's great you're right on time" Dr Bhumesh Kumar spoke first. 

"I'm here now" she replied lowly. 

"Well thankyou for clearing your pending bills and submitting the amount for transplant. We'll soon arrange a donor and might operate on your mother any day soon. We'll analyze her state first and try to make her medically fit before carrying out the incision" the doctor explained rather gladly about the procedure of her patient. 

But it dropped like a bomb on her and she felt explosions around her, her ears started to bang and she couldn't hear them anymore. 

Who paid it? 

The only question kept tickling her mind like a needle. As far as she knew there were no relatives she met in her entire life. The people from her parents side cut off from her parents since they did love marriage, going against their parents. 

Her mother never mentioned any humble person to her ever who would suddenly appear and pay for her medical fees. 

The question was unanswerable and most unexpected. 

She didn't realized when the doctors excused themselves from her and went out of the room. 

And she stood there frozen. She didn't know whether to be happy about it but the shock was too unbearable. 

She took slow steps towards her mother bed, her face presenting a state of trance. She looked at her mother as reflexively tears started to brim in her eyes. 

Mom please wake up, it's too hard to take now" she whispered as she leaned closer to her. 

She placed the enchanting smelling orchids on table beside her. As she took her mother's cold hand between her warm ones and feeling the sensation of her yet alive body. 

"Open your eyes mom, look at me! I won't be able to live without you, you know it better. I need you" her voice broke as constant lumps form in her throat and she gulped down to overcome her emotional state. 

Samantha, still on oxygen supply couldn't hear or see anything. She was unconscious. But Ruby knew how much her mother loved her and that's why she didn't wanted to lose the only person in her life. 

After crying her heart out beside her mother's bed, she got up, putting herself together again. 

She went straight to the counter for the query.

 A woman was sitting at the window counter, chewing a bubble gum rather poorly. 

"Miss can you please tell me who cleared bills for the patient name 'Samantha' , admitted from a heart disease" she enquired politely. 

"It might take a while" she replied and started working on the computer in front of her. 

Ruby stood there, waiting impatiently for the name reveal. She was not expecting anyone because she didn't knew anybody beside her mother. Growing up inside four walls and interacting with the only person she loved, that was her life. She didn't even made friends at school because she seemed to be a introvert and became more affected after her father's death. Only friend she made, Kate in her high school left for abroad to study in the best college. And that was the end, she never had any friends apart from her. 

So it must be some outsider, who knew her mother already, she thought. 

"It was anonymous, the man didn't told his name but I saw him. He was dressed in a suit like some business tycoon. And when he submitted such a large amount of money which he transferred through his credit card, I was shocked. So he kept relaying in my mind for a while because he was handsome too" she explained to her interestingly, not hesitating to show off that she had a immediate crush on him. 

"Okay" Ruby was confused as hell about this hidden man. 

How come she don't know him and how can he clear her bills and that too anonymously, why is he not revealing himself like he could have come to me if he wanted to help. She thought and portrayed himself as a good man in her mindset that maybe he didn't wanted to reveal his identity and just wanted to help.

    "hello Ruby, I just wanted to see. And Simon was also missing his mother." Amber came in and sat beside her. "Can you give him to me?" She asked Amber as her heart overflowed with emotions of holding her baby. Amber gave Simon into her lap. Simon pulled on her white dress as he cooed. She placed kisses on his cheek and forehead. She spend some time with Simon when a female waiter came inside to inform her that it's the time now, everyone is waiting for bride. The words gave her goosebumps and she was finding energy within herself to get up and go with them. She knew she can't step back now, guests were there, Smith was waiting for her but Simon was sitting in her lap which was halting her steps. But before she could say anything, Amber picked up Simon from her lap. "I think it's the time, let's go! Guests must be waiting.

  • Let me be yours   One cent of advice

    She was accompanied by the girls as she got out of the salon. The driver opened the car door for her and she sat in. It was not same car and it was beautiful decorated with purple tulips too. She admired it for a few seconds and then sat right in. She didn't even look at herself for long in the mirror. She didn't know how she was looking, either a beautiful bride or just an average one. The girls waved her as the driver drove the car out of the place. She knew where they were heading. She was going to marry Smith, it was her wedding day. When that ring on her finger will officially make her his wife. It was painful as if constantly burning in anguish. She wanted to cry so bad, wanted someone to lend her a shoulder but none, there was no one to accompany her of share her pain. She was silent through out the way. It was very long drive until she reached the venue. And sister Amelia recieved her. The mansion which was especially arranged for the guests and bride, Sister Amelia took h

  • Let me be yours   Lonely

    He came back home and on his way to his study, he grabbed a bottle of beer from the kitchen cabinet. Shutting the door with force, he sat down on the floor against it and took out the cork. Pressing it against his mouth, he drank the sour, bitter liquid as if water. Beer was always some energy drink to him. And now that he was down, feeling low, he was sure that it can help him. He tore the shirt apart he was wearing, as the buttons flew away far. The wound was hurting real bad, as he looked at the freshly done bandage. She touched him while wearing that ring! He was so pissed at the moment that he didn't cared about his wound and took off that bandage immediately. Now only the cotton was stick against because of the sticky ointment. He laid down and closed his eyes. He won't let her marry him, he promised himself as he repeated the words against his lips. "I won't let him touch you, you're only mine" he whispered to himself, to the dark, empty room with half closed eyes. Half

  • Let me be yours   Jealousy

    Despite loathing him, he had to send the invitation to Dawson at the very moment. He called Velvet and asked her to send one at his address too. Ruby remained silent through out the way, as the feelings were overwhelming for her and she felt vulnerable. The way he looked her with those sharp eyes made her feel so many things. Fear, love, jealousy, happiness, there was so much in his eyes. The way he looked at her made her feel scared of him. It was in a while that he horrified her. Smith dropped her home and leaned in to place a kiss on her cheek. She barely smiled to him. "Are you feeling unwell?" He asked her, extremely suspicious of her behavior after meeting Dawson. "Yeah fine, just feeling feverish" she replied, rubbing her forehead. "Let's go to hospital then" he suggested, concerned about her. "No I'm fine, I'll take a tablet and it'll be over within a day" she replied and tried to open the car door. He wanted to ask her what was wrong with his rush but didn't stop her w

  • Let me be yours   Invitation

    It was few days after, when he got discharged from the hospital and he was well to go home. Joseph was in office, so Jason accompanied him and took him home. He felt relieved after spending such a long time in hospital. The doctor strictly advised him to get his wounds dressing done daily. He assured him but he knew better that he going to take off the bandages in a few days by himself. He has suffered deeper pain that this bullet wound. He was so eager through out these days that Ruby will once visit him. But when she didn't came, he realized that already knew that he was conscious now, maybe from Joseph and now she'll not face him. He went home and met Simon first. He kissed his son and hugged him lightly. He missed him most of all. Simon seemed to more grown up in the past few weeks. Jason helped him to get into his room as he could walk easily now. He went into his room to change his clothes while Amber was preparing a good lunch for them. Jason adored Simon so much, so he sat

  • Let me be yours   Hug me tighter

    "so she is getting married?" Dawson confirmed in a low voice. "Yeah that's what she told me" Joseph replied. "To Smith? She must be happy then" he said again, a hint of disappointment visible in his voice. "Seems so, yesterday I saw them shopping for their wedding in the mall. She looked happy" he told him, remembering when he went to dinner with a client. "I think you should know that she asked for Simon's custody" Joseph wanted to bring in this matter into his knowledge. "Yeah I heard it too. But that's fine that you denied her. I can't give Simon away to her even if she begs for it. He is my only son and I want to provide him every Luxury. He's my heir" he said proudly, with a straight face. "Sure I guess you've already met Jason then. He arrived the day you got shot" he asked. "Yeah he came before you. He has changed alot. He is insisting on living here now as he's graduated now" he said with a worried face. "Maybe you should let me, you both brother can run the company be
