Asher

I couldn’t place it, but I could tell there was something bothering Ruby. She seemed a bit different from the person I saw in the morning. There was a glow in her eyes too and, without deceiving myself, I knew I wasn’t the reason behind it.

“Could she have heard my call with Camila?” I thought to myself but quickly shook off the thought. There is no way she did. I intentionally left the room to answer the call so she wouldn’t hear us.

I really don’t understand why Camila had to call too, when I had already explained the situation of things to her. I'd made her promises before leaving, so why try to breach our agreement? I can’t really blame her either, she must be missing me so badly.

But then? Why is Ruby being uptight?

I watched as she hurried into the bathroom and was just going to indulge myself in my thoughts till I find a reasonable explanation. But then, someone rang the door and I went to answer it. It was one of the receptionists, and she had a big smile on her face

  • My heart beats for you    My cold bed…

    AsherI opened the room and was surprised to see it all arranged and cleaned up. I’d really like to know what Linda said to my mom that got her all straightened up. The last time we talked was the night we lost Ruby. She didn’t say a word after she asked me to leave so peace could reign. I could see it in her eyes that she was so disappointed in me, it felt like she disowned me already. I can’t really say but I think that was part of the reason why I found it hard to get myself back together…I got in the bathroom and had a nice long shower. By the time I was downstairs, the table was all set like she said. My dad was back now and seeing me, he didn’t say a word. He just stared at me briefly and continued eating.I took my seat and my mom served me. We all settled in and ate in silence. No one said a word and when my dad was done, he stood up and left, still with no word said to me. It really broke my heart because I never knew he could ever ignore me. We talk a lot and he even com

  • My heart beats for you    You need to keep living…

    AsherEver since the incident, I’ve been miserable. After searching for days, Ruby was declared dead. She had been in the water for too long and there was no way she was still alive. That single report closed her case and that was it, everyone went back to their lives. I didn’t, I couldn’t function anymore and had to rely on work as a distraction. During the day, I bury myself in work and when I get home in the evening, I drink myself to sleep. I leave early in the morning and come back late in the night. Linda has tried everything possible to get me back on track but nothing worked. “I just want her back, Linda. If you get her for me then I will be fine. You don’t understand what I feel. I wish I died honestly, then, I wouldn’t be stuck with this miserable feeling.” I let out in the afternoon when she tried talking to me again.“Maybe I don’t understand what you feel exactly but I know a little about grief. I’ve been there and I know it’s a terrible place to be. You’re hurting, I

  • My heart beats for you    Only strategic moves allowed!

    Ruby It’s been two days since Xavier and I had the conversation about my plans. I’ve been doing a lot of thinking since then and he didn’t try to disturb me. He never asked and just told me to let me know what I decide when I’m ready. Everytime I think about the last one year of my life, I always wished I wasn’t a good girl. It was the good in me that stopped me from going after Xavier. It was the same thing that pushed me to choose Asher over and over even when it was clear it was killing me. Camila was a bad bitch all the way and yeah, she won in the end. All my life I thought if I was good, stayed loyal, loving and caring, then life would automatically be good to me but I’ve realized that’s it’s all a lie. Good things don’t just happen to good people and most times, the bad ones get all the good things in life. They don’t just sit by and wait for things to happen. They get up on their feet and make things happen. That’s what I’m going to do now. I’m not just going to sit by an

  • My heart beats for you    Let me make it up to you…

    RubyDays went by but things remained the same. The hurt didn’t stop, it even got worse and I went to bed every morning feeling so hurt. I woke up in the morning and pain is the first thing I feel.Xavier made sure I got everything I needed, he ensured the nurse comes over everyday to check up on me. If I wasn’t carrying the baby inside me, I would have sworn it was his baby. The way he was always looking out for it was on another level.“I’m sure the nurse thinks you’re my partner.” I said to him after the nurse left.“There’s nkthikg bad if she thinks that, I mean there’s nothing wrong if I’m your partner, right?” He replied with a such smile and I also tried to force out a smile in return. I didn’t answer him and though he noticed my reluctance, he didn’t push further, he just changed the topic and we talked about something else. “I’ll be downstairs, I have some finishing touches to do. Want to come keep my company?” He asked while I shook my head.“Nah, I think I’ll just rest he

  • My heart beats for you    How dare you Asher!

    RubyOnce Xavier mentioned seeing two people who seemed happy to see me get into the accident, I immediately figured it was Camila and the stupid chef. The two were definitely working together, why else would they have all that plan hatched up to get at Asher? And yeah, he deserves it and more. He caused me all deep pain throughout our marriage and still almost caused me my life and that of my baby. Wait, my baby?“My baby? How’s my baby?” I exclaimed while he smokily smiled and that sort of calmed me down.“Ohh the baby is fine. I didn’t even know you were expecting until the doctor mentioned it. And I’m sorry about this but I didn’t ask them to put you first. You were in a very critical state and it was so hard to even get them to accept you. That was why I have the orders to prioritize you. But I’m glad that they were able to save you two.” He explained and I let out a deep sigh. I know he did what he had to do but I don’t think I would have been able to get over it, if they actu

  • My heart beats for you    It’s me, Xavier!

    RubyI opened my eyes and I was still plugged to the machines on the bed. I looked around the room and saw Xavier and a number of the doctors talking. It felt like I was hallucinating because my brain didn’t want to accept that it was really Xavier. I mean, it can’t be him, right? I am definitely dreaming again but why do I keep seeing him in my dreams?My head couldn’t figure out the questuons and I ended up passing out after much thinking. The next time I opened my eyes, I was no more in the hospital. I was now in…Oh my goodness, what’s happening now? We are flying?? I’m in a private jet!My head screamed the answer to me and I confirmed it too. Xavier looked up then and seeing I was awake, smiled. “Ohh you’re awake!” He let out while I struggled to sit up but he quickly stopped me.“Ohh, no please don’t do that yet. Just relax for now.” He said and then hurried to my side with a glass of juice.“Here, have this, it will help you to relax.” He said but I wasn’t thirsty for a dri
