Enora:

No! No! No!

This... This couldn't be! How!

Blood drained from my face and I felt a chill ripple through me. My fingers, my whole body felt stiff.

My eyes didn't blink, and I could feel it drying up and stinging, but I didn't care.

I wanted to cry so badly but I couldn't. My heart was beating in slow motion and each beat shook me.

"Miss Lopez?"

I didn't know when I sprang back into action and slammed the laptop closed as I heard the door open.

"Miss Lopez, we have more work for..."

I swerved on my chair and was face to face with a stunned Ms. Catherine.

"Hey. I... I'll get the work done."

I reached for the papers in her hands but she didn't give them to me. Her eyes were wide as she searched my face.

"Enora... "

This was the first time she had ever used my first name.

"... Are you sure you're alright? You look quite pale."

The smile I mustered was so fake but it was all I could manage. She saw right through me but I wasn't about to admit that something was wrong.

"I'm fine. Just

    Nathan:I had gone over the case for the umpteenth time with my lawyer. I had remembered everything in the evidence and was prepared for every question. My head was aching terribly, and Frank passed me an aspirin.“You are going to need a lot more than one,” he said. He looked just as tired as I was. He had been doing this for years. He was used to stress like this, yet it didn’t spare him either. With all I had memorized and read, we still didn’t have enough to pin anything on Eliot and his dad. KKC were as slippery as always. I still didn’t even have the time to see Mr. Kane and question him about the dust explosion. After the most recent hit on the warehouse, I knew that he had to have done it. He wanted to cripple me, shake my confidence before the case. I hated that guy with every fibre that was inside of me. I made a mental note to see Kane after the court case. If everything went smoothly, we would have a verdict by the end of the week. I picked up my phone. I didn’t even k

    Enora:Bridget stood up at the sound of a knock at my door. Jasper popped his head in, and as soon as his eyes fell on both of us, I could see that he was instantly speechless.She gave him a small smile, packed up her stuff and stood up to leave. My stomach churned even more, and soon the food that she had given me no longer agreed with me.I saw the way they exchanged glances, and she walked out the door, just as he came inside. He had new files in his hands, and for some reason, he looked paler than usual. I reached for my bottle of water just as he sat down and placed the files on my desk."It seems you were busy," he said flatly, leaning back into his chair, looking at me with many questions in his eyes. I sighed, my mind looking for the right words to say. Bridget wanted to put all of this behind her, but I wasn't even sure if I could forgive her after everything that had happened."We talked," I told him, lowering my head and grabbing the files he had passed to me. "We talke

    Enora:I sat at my desk. My heart was heavy as I typed across my keyboard. I couldn't forget all the stares that I had gotten in the morning. Everyone–especially Emily–looked so disappointed. Could I really blame them? I felt like shit anyway. I shouldn't have made it so hard for Nathan. Even though we had made up, I still couldn't erase the image of his heart breaking right in front of me out of my head. I sighed and picked up my phone. No text or call from him yet either. I opened our message thread and read our previous texts. All the sweet memories made the butterflies flutter in my tummy, the the tough conversations, the ones that came with the hard times felt like they had squashed them. I sighed and began to write. "Hey. I really hope you're day is going good. I know that you're busy. I just want to check on you." Send. My heart skipped a beat when I saw the first and second ticks. I waited for them to change color but minutes went by and there was still nothing. A s

    Enora:The weekend went as quickly as it came. It was simple: helping Nathan with his court case, sex, eating, and repeat. He never brought up the proposal again and I had mixed feelings about it. Maybe it was best that he didn’t talk about it anymore. I needed time to think. I was waiting for him downstairs. I sighed. It wasn’t like we were in a rush though. We still had plenty of time but I had this feeling that he had collapsed from tiredness back on the bed while he was getting dressed. We had a pleasurable night last night but I know he didn’t sleep. I cracked an eye open at night and found him awake and working at my desk. I was soon swept up by the sleep and my eyes closed again.“I’m ready. Sorry I took so long,” he said as he rushed down the stairs, doing up his cufflinks. I smiled. He looked like he had been in a rush. His tie was a little wonky. “I told you that you should let me help you get dressed,” I said, walking up to him and centreing his tie properly. He smile

    Enora:Something in me shatters. His grip on my body, his face buried in my shoulder. I just can’t bring myself to be mad at him. I don’t even think that I had the right to be mad at him. I don’t think any of this is his fault. “Enora, please say something,” he mumbled, but my lips were pursed shut. I wanted to say something but the tears I held back choked me. Seeing him like this, this broken, it was all my fault and I felt terrible for it all. “Enora?”He raised his head and looked at me. His eyes were red and moist. He wanted to cry but he didn’t… or rather, he couldn’t. I, on the other hand, already had a hot stream running down my face. He forced a smile and wiped my cheek with his thumb.“There is nothing that you should apologize for,” I mumbled, trying my best not to burst out in loud wails. “I shouldn’t have…”“No,” he hushed, placing a finger on my lip. “You have every right to reject. I just want to know that you still love me. As long as you aren’t leaving me, I…”“I’m

    Enora:Saturday was the coldest I had ever felt. I didn’t even want to get out of bed. My phone was my companion and I couldn’t help checking it every few minutes. There were no texts or calls from Nathan. I rolled over, away from the sun, my chest tight and my stomach churning. It was time to get up, but I pulled the covers over my head. I didn’t want to. I didn’t have the courage to see Nathan's face, not after last night. That was why I ran away when I heard him getting closer to the door. “I am such a coward,” I mumbled into a pillow, hugging it so tight that I cut off all the circulation in my arms. If I didn’t get my act together soon, I was going to rot in this bed. The letter that Nathan had written to me last night was on the bed side table and I reached for it. I read it over and over again. He wanted to see me. I had no reason to be hiding out in my room. I wanted to see him too, but I had no idea how to even start. How the hell do you start a normal conversation with th
