By the time the nurse came in with my discharge papers, I had already been awake for a long time.

The hospital room was quiet in that strange way only hospitals could be quiet, filled with the faint hum of machines and the distant sound of footsteps in the hallway. My body felt lighter than it had in days. The pain was still there, dull and stubborn, but it no longer pressed down on me like a mountain. I could breathe without wincing. I could sit up without feeling dizzy. Even the air sm

    ๊งโ™กโ€…๐”‰๐”ฏ๐”ž๐”ซ๐”จโ€…โ™ก๊ง‚The chair was uncomfortable. I leaned back anyway, one arm resting loosely against it, my fingers tapping lightly as my gaze drifted across the room without really focusing on anything. The police station smelled like stale air and paperwork, a mix that didnโ€™t change no matter where you went. Officers moved in and out, going about their routine like this was just another day, another problem to deal with before moving on to the next. To them, it probably was. To me, it was just a delay.Across from me, the men from earlier didnโ€™t look as relaxed. Their clothes were still disheveled, their expressions tight, irritation sitting heavy on their faces like they hadnโ€™t expected things to go this way. Bruises were already forming, some darker than others, a few cuts still fresh enough to show exactly how things had gone for them. They kept looking at me, like they were waiting for something, an apology, a reaction, anything at all, but they werenโ€™t getting it.โ€œSo youโ€™re

    ๊งโ™กโ€…๐“ฃ๐“ฒ๐“ถโ™ก๊ง‚โ€œTim!โ€The voice cut through the noise around me, sharp and familiar, and before I could fully process it, someone was already in front of me, closing the distance in seconds as I tried to stand from the floor. Strong arms steadied me before I could lose my balance completely, pulling me upright when the floor felt like it was still spinning under my feet. Frank. I didnโ€™t need to look twice to know it was him. His grip was firm, one hand at my back, the other holding my arm like he was making sure I wouldnโ€™t drop right there, his presence cutting through the chaos around me in a way nothing else could.โ€œAre you okay?โ€ he asked, his voice low but urgent, his eyes scanning my face quickly before settling on the back of my head where the pain was still pulsing.I nodded, even though everything still felt like it was shifting slightly around me. โ€œIโ€™m fine,โ€ I said, my voice not as steady as I wanted it to be. โ€œI just need a second.โ€He didnโ€™t look convinced, but he didnโ€™t

    ๊งโ™กโ€…๐“ฃ๐“ฒ๐“ถโ™ก๊ง‚I had just finished attending to my last patient for the shift when a nurse hurried toward me, her steps quick, her expression tight like something had just gone wrong. โ€œDoctor Tim,โ€ she called, slightly out of breath. โ€œThereโ€™s an emergency case. Construction accident. They just brought him in.โ€ I didnโ€™t ask anything else. I nodded once and moved immediately.Whatever thoughts I had earlier, whatever had been sitting at the back of my mind since the cafรฉ, it all got pushed aside without effort. The emergency ward was already active when I got there, nurses moving quickly, voices overlapping.The patient was on the bed, barely conscious, his breathing uneven, his body covered in dust and blood like he had been pulled straight out of the site without proper cleaning. His clothes were torn in places, his skin bruised, and there was a deep cut along his side that hadnโ€™t stopped bleeding properly. I stepped closer without wasting time, my focus narrowing immediately. โ€œWhat

    ๊งโ™กโ€…๐“ฃ๐“ฒ๐“ถโ™ก๊ง‚I stopped by a cafรฉ near the hospital to get coffee and a few treats for myself and the others before heading in again. It had become something I did without thinking, a routine that made things easier when the day ahead was going to be long and exhausting and besides I never got to drink the coffee that Sheila brought for me. The place wasnโ€™t too crowded, just enough people to keep the line moving slowly, and I stood there waiting for my turn, already knowing what I was going to order.I didnโ€™t expect to see her.โ€œTim?โ€I turned, and there she was.Laura.For a second, I just looked at her, trying to process it properly because the last thing I had heard was that no one knew when she would be back. Eric had said it like it wasnโ€™t something he had control over, like it was uncertain, and yet here she was standing right in front of me like nothing had changed.โ€œLaura,โ€ I said, a little surprised, my brows pulling together slightly. โ€œYouโ€™re back?โ€She smiled, calm and easy

    ๊งโ™กโ€…๐”‰๐”ฏ๐”ž๐”ซ๐”จโ€…โ™ก๊ง‚Peter had sent me the address earlier.Jacquesโ€™ house.It was supposed to be simple. I show up, we talk, he gives me the construction rights, and I finally get to settle things properly in New York without having to keep shifting pieces around like Iโ€™ve been doing for months now. It wasnโ€™t even about ambition at this point, it was about control, about having something stable in a place that clearly didnโ€™t want to give me that easily. Jacques had the kind of influence that made things smoother, quieter, less messy, and once he agreed, everything else would fall into place without much resistance.That was the plan, before everything got ruined.Before Kagemoto Kazama decided to get involved.I exhaled slowly as I drove, my fingers tapping lightly against the steering wheel in a steady rhythm that didnโ€™t match the way my thoughts were moving. It was trying to piece together something that was already obvious but still didnโ€™t sit right.The meeting had failed.Not just

The mail. The way Frank had said it so casually, like it wasnโ€™t something that should have shaken me the way it did. Like it was just a fact, something obvious, something I should have already known.But I didnโ€™t.And that was the problem.I stood in the corner of the staff room, my fingers loosely wrapped around the edge of the table, staring at nothing in particular while my mind ran in circles. I could still hear his voice, the way it had dropped slightly when he said it, the way his expression had changed just enough for me to notice even if he didnโ€™t make a big deal out of it.โ€œYouโ€™re repaying him for saving your life by letting him walk over you and kissing youโ€ฆ yeah right, I saw the mail of the two of you kissing that you sent.โ€I
