"Yes Rita, I already had something to eat and I'm full." Belle told her and watched as she smiled a lovely smile through the video call. She smiled back at her and continued her office tale. "That's all that happened and it's all pretty weird and cliché especially the date part." She ended with a chuckle.
"And you feel this is the part where you and your boss start to get to know each other before you hit it off, right?" Rita laughed making Skylar laugh and appear behind Belle
"That's the same thing I said, Rita." She piped in. Belle groaned pushing her off as she was putting her entire body weight on her.

40Belle thought of possible reasons why she behaved the way she did. He's her lecturer and they can't do that. She took off my shoes immediately and headed straight to her room. She took off her clothes and underwear and ducked straight into bed, falling asleep immediately.She groaned as the alarm blared for the fourth time today. She turned to hit snooze again but when she saw the time, she paled. 9:24. She was supposed to be at work before 8am.She quickly got up, brushed her teeth, took a quick shower and wore a rose gold off-the-shoulder dress that stopped just above the knee. The top part was fitted while from the waist down was flay. She paired it up with a pair of black sandals because honestly, she wasn't in the mood for heels.She heard barking, followed by little excited whimpers and it either meant Baby was up to something mischievous or he was eating. She chuckled and fixed her hair b

41Wait, I remembered something. It wasn't much but it was still something. I remembered carrying a baby, that was it. I tried so hard to at least remember something else but nothing was forthcoming, absolutely nothing.However, the pain had significantly reduced and now it was just mild, more bearable than before. I still had random aches from unidentifiable parts of my body though. Very weird.The one thing that made me comfortable with being in my abyss was the peace that it came with. It was awfully peaceful in a weird sick way. I actually enjoyed it, even though I hadn't seen the dark lord or beelzebub yet; hell is lame.Or maybe he'll isn't a place with fire, demons and whatnots. Maybe hell is sort of like a timeout or something in a black unending hole, an abyss where you find yourself after death. Maybe the abyss is for you to remember yourself and reflect upon your past mistakes.Then

42Belle could manage to wait for five minutes to see the doctor, it's not like she had a choice anyways. It's either this or wait three days, she couldn't afford to wait three days."What do you think their emergency is?" Belle projected towards Rita who had already zoned out a long time ago. Belle rolled her eyes and pinched her cousin."What the hell?!" Rita exclaimed as she zoned back in."I said what do you think their emergency is?" She repeated."Who?""The couple that bumped into us.""I don't know, maybe a dying grandma?""I don't think so.""Why are you so interested anyways?""I don't know, I guess their hurry just piqued my interest.""None of their problems matter to us, we just have to get you back to normal so you can eat well at least.""Right."

Chapter 43It was just two days into the medication and Belle was already feeling good, great even. She successfully got a one week leave from her job because of her illness; well, they didn’t know if it was contagious so they had to give her the leave so as not to infect anyone else.Meanwhile, her assistant, Tiana worked her job in the meantime. Belle was the new chief editor and there was no way she would let Tiana remain in the same old position as before. The girl works really hard and she’d been in that position way before Belle started working with the institution so it felt right to give her the promotion. She could pick anyone to become her assistant chief editor; perks of being the chief editor and she picked Tiana. She promoted the zealous girl from being the assistant to

6"I can't believe that witch, it's like she hates me because she has a problem with everything I do and say. All my opinions are pointless and everything I do is dumb, can you imagine?", the voice resonated through the regulated speakers."Some mothers- in-law are just like that. Most of them don't honestly like their daughters in law while most of them are just trying to look out for their sons, y'know", Rita replied into the mic."I guess! Her elder son just divorced his evil wife so maybe that's why she feels I'm the same, thank you for listening, Rita, you're an amazing person, God bless you", the caller ends."Thank you, Mia, God bless you too, now let's take our next caller, Matt", a beep sounds. "Hello Matt""Hey Rita, actually I'm calling from London. I need your opinion on something actually""Go ahead, I'm your girl

44Finally, after much anticipation, the day finally came and Belle was feeling elated and healthier than ever; she was very happy to be opportuned to save Roman's granddaughter.She was unable to save her sister and parents because it was beyond her power but she could save this girl and she would. She was doing this for two reasons; to wipe the sadness of Roman's face and to clear her conscience. It was a little bit selfish but she was only human. If she managed to save this girl, at least she would be less sad and self-reproached about not being able to save her family.Belle got up as early as 6am and the transfusion was slated for 3pm but she didn't mind, she was ready to wait it out. She'd never donated blood before because she'd never even thought about it until she heard about the girl's condition.She enthusiastically whiled away time by watching TV. The last time she remembered being this enthusiasti
