Nina's POV

“I’ve been searching for another pair of eyes,” Elijah said, his voice low, almost hopeful. “The doctor said… as soon as we get a donor, the surgery will commence.” “We’re almost there,” he added, gently. “Soon we’ll have it, and everything will be back as it was.” Back as it was? A hollow silence bloomed inside me, it was cold and wide. But before I could make sense of that last part, his phone rang, slicing through the moment. “Yes,” he answered, his tone sharp now. “Alright, hold on.” Then to her, he added, “I’ll be with you shortly.”

I heard the rustle of his footsteps fading, he was stepping away to take the call. Without thinking, I turned and walked briskly toward my room, my fingers trembling against the doorknob. The click of his study door closing behind him echoed like the slam of a verdict. I stood still in the center of my room, breath shallow.

    ‎‎Nina’s POV‎‎The car slowed up to a stop in front of Elijah’s penthouse. I stepped out, standing under the clear roof entrance shed, with that night breeze brushing my skin. Elijah was waiting near the door, smiling like nothing in this world was anyway broken. I walked toward him slowly. "I'm glad you came," he said. "Yeah… me too," I answered, "So… come on in," he said, giving a small nod. "Sure."‎‎The glass doors slid open with a quiet sound. We both stepped inside together. Nothing had really changed much as I looked around. The same expensive smell, the same cold beauty of a place built for a man with everything. It all felt like walking back into an old life, well, as for me I wasn’t that girl anymore.‎‎"Nothing much has changed since you left," Elijah said, his eyes following me while I looked around. "I can see that," I replied, calm. He turned to me, with his hands in his pockets. His eyes searched my face like he wanted to find the woman who once loved him. "How hav

    ‎ ‎Elijah’s POV ‎ ‎I thought I would never see her again… my lovely Nina. I thought she was gone forever. Watching her stand there alive still feels unreal. But she hates me, every part of her totally hates me. And I can’t blame her. Yet deep inside me, something keeps pulling at my chest. That boy… Something in me whispers over and over that He might be my son. I keep replaying it in my head. The doctor’s question. Nina’s reaction. The blood-transfer issue. None of it sits right with me at all. I can’t shake the thought. If the paternity result says he’s mine…Then I already lost years I can never get back. But I won’t lose him again. I won’t lose both of them again. I pulled my phone from my jacket pocket, checking for messages from the hospital... again this time. But there was nothing. ‎ ‎I sighed and dropped the phone on the side stool beside me. But why were they taking so long? Dr. Mayes promised the result wouldn’t delay, and now it’s already noon. I left the hospital earl

Then the door pushed open. A nurse stepped inside. “Dr. William,” she said quickly, “Dr. Mayes wants to see you in the diagnostic lab right away.” Nina looked at me, confused. Is everything okay, she said looking at me. “Alright,” I said softly. “I’ll be there.”The nurse nodded and left. ‎I looked back at Nina. Her eyes were searching my face, trying to understand what was going on. “I’ll be right back,” I told her. ‎“Dr. William,” Dr. Mayes called the moment I opened the door to the diagnostic lab. His face looked a bit serious and inquisitive. “Yes?” I responded, stepping inside. He held up a tiny plastic bag right inside it was a small piece of hair. “Do you know anything about this?” Dr. Mayes asked. “This is a sample someone brought in earlier today… for a paternity test.” A paternity test? Hair? Of

    ‎ ‎William’s POV ‎ ‎A rush of thoughts slammed into me all at once. Memories… very very old ones, from when we were little. When we would play together at the park Her laugh and her scream when she'll get hurt. How? How is she here… living as Vanessa? But, Why that name? Why not the name she was born with… the name I grew up calling her? ‎ ‎Sitting outside the hospital I couldn't help myself but feel my throat tightening until I could barely breathe, whenever her thoughts comes up. So she has been this woman…? This trouble…? This chaos…? It wasn’t just some stranger. It was my long-lost sister.

Inside it was her phone. ‎ ‎Then I took it out slowly,If Vanessa had kidnapped the boy from the school, then she must have talked to someone… someone may have helped her. ‎ ‎I unlocked the phone and started going through it, hoping to find anything, either a message, a call, someone's name, something that would just explain how she picked the boy up from school so easily. I needed that proof that's why I had to hurriedly leave Nina and Elijah to come find one to raise an investigation. And I had to find one before anything worse would happened. ‎ ‎On checking the phone, I stumbled on a video. The video was dated five years ago.
