“Deal maker?” Niko frowned his face as he heard this.Reyna gulped down, her eyes meeting with Alan’s for a split second before darting to Niko.“Is that what she told you about me?” Niko squinted his eyes at her.The doctor entered with some other nurses at this moment, catching everyone off guard as they walked to Alan. Reyna's heart skipped a beat as her eyes met with Alan’s. She put her hand in his, squeezing his palm tight as she smiled at him.“You can make it okay, everything will be fine at the end, you don’t need to worry about anything, the only thing you’re worrying about is how to survive okay?” Reyna said to him as tears started to form in her eyes.“It’ll all be fine. You don’t need to cry okay? Be strong for me, and I’ll be for you also.” Alan said as they started disconnecting the plugs on his body.Niko just looked at the both of them and for some reason, his heart clenched at the chemistry they both shared. Amidst all the chaos, she still liked her brother and stood
“Ahhhhhhh!” Reyna yelled out in happiness.Her face shone of joy and smile, she felt an indescribable kind of joy feeding her heart as the doctor's word continued to ring in her head. Her brother, Alan had survived. Alan, Alan, has become someone that doesn’t need to seat him the hospital bed.“But you can’t see him now, it would be better if you come back tomorrow morning, early, to see him because right now, he’s sleeping.”“Can’t we just have a glimpse of him?” Larissa spoke up.“Excuse me,” Reyna said as she pushed the doctor away lightly.Her eyes softened as she saw her younger brother wheeled out of the theatre room and back to his ward. She felt tears form in her eyes as she moved forward to touch him only to be pulled away by the doctor.“It would be better if you leave now or I call the security in you, your choice to say.““And I'd like to see if you’ll be able to keep your job if the head doctor heard what you did.” Reyna retorted as she stared hard at the doctor.He gulpe
“Where the hell is she?” Niko yelled out for the tenth time.He picked up his phone again, pressing the last number he called as it rang out again, the same robotic reply echoing through the room again.“The person you’re calling is not answering.” The machine said before he angrily hung up the call.This was some minutes to eight pm and she was not at home. His veins popped up on his head as he clenched his jaws tightly. He walked out of his room with his phone in his hands as he heard a little creak of the door.“Fuck! Where the heck is she!” He yelled out the house.His feet moved quickly to the seating room, deciding on seating there and waiting for her till she got back. He hadn't sat for a minute so he stood up back and started pacing back and forth the room. She knew she was supposed to be at home by this time. But she never follows the instructions, she never listens to him.He picked up his phone from where he dropped it when he wanted to sit down as he put another call acros
Throughout the car ride, no word was said to each other. They both stayed on their part, annoyance and anger invading the whole car. Reyna faced the window, staring at it while Niko just drove home as he tried to focus on the road. He kept seeing her smiling face in his head, especially with another guy and it infuriated him the more. Immediately they got home and he parked the car, Reyna did not say anything as she got out of the car and slammed the door, her feet moving towards the entrance.“You were out late. I had no choice than to come and get you. You can’t just be angry at me for that.” Niko said to her immediately they got inside the house.“Is that why you dragged me like that! Is that why you think you can just come and get me without even giving me any chance to talk or do anything to myself!” She yelled out to him.“I didn’t mean it to happen that way. I was just annoyed at the fact that I was worried about you and you were there, seated there, smiling at someone.” He ret
“Ughhh.” Niko groaned out as he tried to reach out his phone whose ringing tone was piercing his ears.He slammed the bedside lamp on the floor, finally jolting him out of his sleep as he sat up to pick the call. His eyes widened as he saw the caller and all the sleep in his eyes was long gone as he finally picked it.“Hello grandfather.” He greeted as he stood up and yawned.“Brat! Did I have to call you twenty times before you pick my call!” His grandfather shouted playfully through the phone.“I wonder which doctor is treating you and has kept on deceiving you that heart attack is real.” Niko joked as he walked to the mirror, checking out his abs and stretching them out.“Are you saying I’ll die early?” His grandfather said again, an evident of mockery laced in his tones.“Did I say that grandfather? All I’m saying is that you should change your doctor because he has been lying to you all along.” A smile tugged the corners of his lips as he said this.His mother’s father was a fath
Reyna has just entered the house when a smell wafted into her nose. She was extremely tired and extremely hungry. Their lecturer had gone hard on all of them and with Dylan incessant questions about who Niko is, she could just proudly say that her day was stressful.She also went to the hospital to check on Alan, who was bountifully smiling and some checkups were being done on him to see if nothing was tampered with while the operation was going on. That was the only thing that made her day of all things she did today.The more she walked into the house, the stronger the smell got. Her brows went up as deep lines edged her forehead. Was he at home already? Or where was the smell coming from. She was almost at the stairs when her eyes caught whiff of the neatly arranged table, different food and even desert laid on it. The first thing she did was check her hand, seeing that it was almost seven o clock.“You like what you see?” A voice sounded from up the stairs.Her eyes darted to hi
“Wakey wakey.” Niko banged reynas door as he hummed in front of it.Reyna yawned out as she shook her head. She has been awake for almost an hour now but refused to stand up. After playing twenty questions and another fun game with Niko last night, they ended up sleeping this morning and now he was here to tell her that they had to go out. They were both going out to a fashion house today, to check styles of what she should wear to his grandfather's place.Maybe that was the main reason she had woken up and could not stand from the bed. A part of her was nervous about it and also a part of her was looking forward to it. His grandfather seemed pretty interesting as she could tell from everything he told her, and she wanted to meet him.“Are you awake, Reyna?” His voice jolted her out of her thoughts.“Yeah! Leave me alone.” She yelled at him before covering her face with the pillow.They had both laughed and forgotten about the kiss, even though some part of her wanted to ask him why
“Holy shit.” She muttered under her breath.“Reyna!!!” The lady yelled out, garnering attention from the people that were around.“Hey..it’s you..“ Reyna awkwardly said as she moved beside Niko who was still trying to put two and two together.He ordered the food before finally going to sit beside the two girls, his eyes glancing between them.“Who is this hot guy here? Won’t you introduce him?” The girl said, chewing her mouth loudly as her eyes feasted on Niko.“I’m her boyfriend.” Niko replied even before Reyna could talk.There was a bit of shock on the girl's face, her mouth stopping for a few seconds as her head slowly turned to Reyna, meeting Reynas eyes that were widened and her lips pressed together.“What! Are you joking?” She scoffed and laughed out at the same time.“What? What do you mean is she joking? I’m her boyfriend, who are you?” Niko retorted, feeling annoyance coursing through his veins.“You can’t possibly be her boyfriend. You’re too cute for her.” She said as s
