“True love never gives up or loses faith.”

….

~ Alyssa ~

The hallways were bright, yet lifeless. As would be expected of a hospital. Keren and I followed closely behind Lydia, who wasn’t too fazed by this.

For some reason, I wondered why it was Lydia leading us and not Sharon. After all, Sharon is meant to be the housekeeper and lady in charge, right? But in this case… she was just someone who took care of the house.

We arrived at the nurse’s station and, after being given a pass, we took the elevator to his floor.

Just when we were about to arrive at his room, Lydia stopped, and I almost collided with Keren, who was clinging tightly to my right hand.

“I won’t be going in with you both.”

“Why?” I asked, feeling a sense of dread.

“Because… the Doctor said it’s only two at a time.” Her tone didn’t sound convincing enough, but I nodded. Arguing was pointless at this point.

“Also….”

“Yes?”

“He is still unconscious….”

“Like in a coma?” I said, praying my words aren’t true. But seeing

  • The Billionaire’s Nanny   What have I done?

    “Learning to love yourself isn’t a luxury, but a necessity you need to survive.”….~ Austin ~It felt like I had been walking through a thick, dark forest for years, until I finally came across a clearing that led to the light I had been searching for all along. The same one, I assumed, was lost and never to be found again.My eyes fluttered open, and the white walls were what I first noticed as the feeling of light-headedness overshadowed me. Where am I? I thought, as memories slowly began to spring forth. The florist shop, yes… I remembered getting flowers for Keren after getting her favorite chocolate. I planned to surprise her.Just that it didn’t happen… I shut my eyes, as the reminder of what happened flashed through me. Who would plot my assassination? I wondered, trying to figure out if I had hurt anyone recently. Though it was pointless, since as a lawyer. I hurt people a whole lot. Not like I can control that anyways. It happens, and that’s it. But who? I remained the

  • The Billionaire’s Nanny   I’d like to congratulate you.

    “If you want something, go after it and when you find it. Be careful with it, as you might never get it back if you lose it.”….~ Alyssa ~The atmosphere in the car was dull, yet filled with anticipation as Austin’s driver drove us to the hospital.“Is my Dad really awake?” Keren asked for the umpteenth time, and I almost teared up seeing the excited sparkle in her eyes. “He is,” I replied, though I hadn’t confirmed it yet, but we would. We arrived at the hospital minutes later, and at the reception. One of the nurses spoke up. “We can only allow two people in at the same time,” the young nurse replied. “Doctor’s orders.” I nodded, taking a step back so Lydia could take Keren in. “No, no. You need to do this with her, Alyssa.” Lydia placed a comforting arm on my shoulder. “But–”“No buts, go in with her. Just like you did the first day.” But this is different! I wanted to say, but instead swallowed my words. I’d gain nothing by arguing. “Okay.” As Austin has been moved to another

  • The Billionaire’s Nanny   Mr Hook is awake?!

    “When you wake up, is your morning, and when you head to bed, is your night.”….~ Alyssa ~Hours roll into days, and days into weeks and before I know it. A month has passed since Austin’s accident. A month! Like a full month! By now, everyone else has settled back into routine, and I was craving to find meaning in all of this. This wasn’t part of my plan. I hated feeling so lost and directionless and I sought clarity. But who would I talk to? Exactly who?Usually, when the world feels so heavy, I talk it out with Peter. But now, not only can I not reach out to him. I also have to avoid the cafe, which was my happy place. Gosh, this sucks. During the past month, I’ve gone to the hospital four times, once a week with Keren. Yet, it seemed like there was no improvement. The doctors said he was in a coma and he’ll wake up when he is ready, but when? I’d read a couple of books where the characters fell into a coma. But none of them took so long to come out. It mostly took them a w

  • The Billionaire’s Nanny   You are more important.

    “Detachment takes time. So don’t beat yourself up if it’s taking you longer to let go of things and people that no longer matter.”….~ Alyssa ~I covered the rest of the journey home by foot as Peter’s words played and replayed in my head. We were siblings? But how? He was partly Asian, while I was fully American, right? Or am I not? But then we look so much different from each other, except… wait. His eyes! Our eyes! How could I have missed that? But that wasn’t enough to prove that we were related. Or was it? Gosh! This is super overwhelming!I had just stepped into the house when I came face to face with the ever angry Sharon. “Why are you still here?” She growled, and I wondered if she was maybe a member of the mythological werewolves.“I have not left,” I replied, crossing my arms across my chest. I had no reason to fear her and nor would I. “Why?”“Isn’t it obvious? Mr Hook hasn’t relieved me of my Job yet.”“That’s because he is not around. But he has made arrangements al

  • The Billionaire’s Nanny   Who am I?

    “Growth is messy; not linear, not predictable and definitely not smooth. And that’s where its intricate beauty lies.”….Who am I?~ Alyssa ~“Joseph Mayas?” I repeated her words, unable to believe it.“Yup.” She grinned like a high school student who had just had her first crush. “Where did you guys meet?”“You weren’t listening?” She stared at me, hurt clouding her features. How could I blame her?“I’m sorry, I wasn’t—”“It’s okay. You know Cafe TI AMO is my favorite coffee spot. We met there.”“Oh… he goes there too?”“Yup, once in a while.”“Okay… so are you guys a thing now?”“Not really, we are still getting to know each other.”“Oh…”“He’s so loving, though.”“Really?”“Yup. He also mentioned you…”“Me?” I stared at her in shock. “What did he say?”“That you had contributed to his niece regaining her voice.”“So he told you everything?” I asked, my heart beating wildly in my chest. It wasn’t that I doubted her sincerity. But our friendship was still fresh, and… an image of Cas
