A dark soul is pollution to his environment. . .

Pacing to stand by the window, Mike looked out without really seeing the car park.
Suddenly, he dialed a number and made a call.
“Hello Mark, this is Mike Stanford. I want you to drop everything you’re doing and work on this for me. I don’t mind the cost, but I need you to find this guy. I don’t have much information on the guy but his name is Tom and he used to date one of my employees, Liza. I will send you a picture once I can get it from her phone, but until then, do your own research and find him for me.”
He told the other person on the phone and after getting an affirmative response, he dropped the call to continue his pace by the window.
If only Liza will just wake and talk to him.

It's possible to be alive but deep inside; you know you're dead. . . ****** Dropping the phone back to its cradle at the other end and walking slowly to his parked motorcycle, Tom gave an angry growl of pain. So, Liza has been unconscious for several days now and they are not sure if she will ever come out of it? All thanks to him. Wow! What a way to reward genuine love and affection. He knew he wasn’t fit to date and love anybody, yet he went ahead to accept Liza and her love. And now, see what he did? He’s on the verge of destroying another life, just because he couldn’t get over his hell of a childhood. He’s busy taking out the anger and garbage he felt for his parents over innocent victims. And now, the most decent thing that has ever happened to him is lying in the hospital, comatose.
Persistence can open doors. . . ***** Walking into the hospital later that evening, Stella wondered if Mike knew what he was doing. Having called a few days back to give a report on Liza’s health and also instructed Stella to cancel anything that might need his personal attention, he hadn’t made a single call of appearance to the office and neither had he called again. Just a brief message in the morning telling Stella what and what not to do till he is back at the office. And now, having noticed Liza’s absence and of course the boss’s absence, there is a rumour brewing and puzzled and confused, Stella has decided, as a friend and not just an employee, to come to the hospital and see for her eyes, exactly what was going on. And now, here she is, waiting for a nurse to lead her to Liza’s private room. 
Love is never coldhearted. . .******She did! Liza heard his voice, the sweet soft voice that kept singing and calling to her from the cold place she was sleeping.
Hope should never be lost. . . ***** Getting news that was different from what he feared, Mike almost fell from the joy of it. He felt like dancing and at the same time, he felt like putting his head on the doctor’s shoulder to weep deeply like he had never done since he was a child. This of course was more than absurd. He had never been the type to give rein to public emotions and display, so he wondered where that came from. Raising his shoulder as if that would get rid of the unwelcome emotions, he closed his eyes tightly before opening them to look at the doctor. Smiling, he moved to the doctor to take her hand in appreciation but her next words stopped him in his tracks. “Unfortunately, I also have some bad news.” Having decided to just say it, the doctor quickly informed him in a rush before he c
Love is a strong man's weakness…******“Okay, what do you want to know?” Mike asked with a brave face while shivering deep inside, praying she didn’t ask him anything he wouldn’t be able to answer.“Who am I? And what’s my name?” She asked in an anxious tone.Finding that to be simple to answer, Mike gave a breath of relief. “Well, your name is Liza Stacey and apart from being my assistant secretary and my newly promoted PA, you are also the most important, beautiful soul I have ever met.” He told her simply and truthfully.Wondering and blushing at this description, Liza nevertheless gave a nod of acceptance.“Okay. So how old am I and since when have I been working in your company?” She asked again and Mike smiled.&ldqu
Chemistry will always be a strong pull…******Forty five minutes later, Mike walked into the room and found her that way, soundly asleep. He gave a breath of relief as he dropped the tray of food he was holding on the table.Moving to stand beside the bed, he couldn’t help but touch her face with a light finger. Brushing a strand of hair from her face, he bent his head and gave her a very light kiss on the head. And that was when Liza opened her eyes to look directly into his blue eyeballs.Having felt a light feathery touch on her face and forehead, Liza opened her eyes and was not so shocked to see Mike as she looked directly into his sexy eyes. Hmm, what a way to wake from sleep! She thought dreamily.Seeing the dreamy look on her face, Mike almost kissed her full on the lips. But remembering why they were there, Mike abruptly gave a small cough and straightened from the bed.Oh dammit! The dre
Never be scared of a man who places you above money…******Gazing into his eyes, Liza wondered at this mood of Mike. He is just too passionate about her case and once again, she was forced to wonder.‘What exactly is her relationship to Mike? Is it just boss and employee relationship or it’s more than that?’ She pondered.Seeing Liza’s gaze on him and the pensive expression on her face, Mike wondered if he hadn’t been too obvious in his eagerness to calm Liza. Deciding to brace it out, he gave her a very dazzling smile of distraction and Liza blinked severally like an owl.‘Wow, what a smile!’ Liza thought dazedly while blinking and looking into Mike’s eyes.Seeing that she was already distracted, Mike quickly made a swift but smart move by putting some words on the scrabble. He clapped his hands gleefully and Liza took her eyes away from his face to loo
Always protect what is yours….******From the other side of the room, Mike stood by the window with his gaze beyond the hospital walls. Looking at him, no one would suspect he was aware of every movement of the woman in the room.He knew Liza was nervous and tensed about this visit of Stella. And earlier, when he saw she was potently worried about meeting her, he had decided to cancel the meeting, he did not want Stella or anybody coming around if it’s going to disturb her this much, but stubborn as she was, Liza had become more upset, telling him not to dare call it off else she would never forgive him.Well, here they are, waiting for his secretary who might step in through the door at any moment from now and the more the time of their appointment draws near, the more the woman on the bed grows tense.And the more she felt that way, the angrier Mike feels, blaming himself for having suggested the meeting
