The silence between us Resentment
Chapter 8: Resentment The moment Leo broke free from Marcus and ran straight into Lyra’s arms, the entire clinic seemed to freeze.Everyone was shocked, heads turned sharply.Some staff members gasped softly. Others stared openly, confusion written on their faces, no one expected it.Bella was the first to step forward.“This is a mistake,” she said sharply, breaking the silence. Her eyes moved from Leo to Lyra with clear irritation. “Sir,” she said, turning to Marcus, “she’s new here and clearly can't handle this case.”Lyra felt her chest tighten.Bella continued, her voice confident. “She doesn’t have the experience to handle a case like this. This child needs someone trained, someone qualified.”All eyes shifted to Marcus.Marcus stood confused.He looked down at Leo clinging to Lyra. Then he looked at Lyra, her unsure eyes, the way she still held the child gently despite the attention.His mouth opened slightly.But no words came out.Before he could respond, footsteps echoed d
The silence between us Reunion
Chapter 7: Reunion It was a calm Monday morning. Lyra woke up before her alarm rang, for a moment she lay still staring into space.Today felt different.She sat up slowly and rubbed her eyes, her body felt heavy and weak.Lyra got off the bed and walked into the bathroom. The cold tiles met her bare feet, sending shivers up her spine. She turned on the shower, allowing the water to fall over her shoulder.As the steam filled the room, her thoughts wandered.Her first week at Serenity health clinic had not been easy . The work itself was what she loved doing, but her colleagues were hostile to her. And Bella, she never for once hid her hatred for her.Lyra sighed and reached for the soap.Just get through today, she told herself.After her shower,she dressed up wearing a black corporate shirt and pants.Lyra moved to the kitchen, she swiftly made coffe and toasted some loaves.As she was eating her phone buzzed.She picked it up, it was the staff group chat. Her eyes carefully read
The silence between us The Weight of Silence
Chapter 6: The Weight of SilenceThe car moved steadily through the quiet night.The city lights glared past the windows. The roads were less crowded now, the noise of the conference long left behind. Inside the car, the silence felt heavy.Marcus sat on the driver's seat.His hands rested firmly on the steering wheel, his posture straight, eyes fixed on the road ahead. He had learned over the years when to speak and when not to. In the back seat, Lucas sat slightly turned to the side.Leo slept beside him.The boy’s head rested on Lucas’s arm. Leo’s body was relaxed, his breathing slow and even. One small hand clutched Lucas’s coat, his fingers curled tightly, as if sleep itself was not enough to make him feel safe.Lucas barely moved.His arm had gone numb, a dull ache spreading slowly, but he ignored it. He wouldn't risk waking Leo. Moments like this were rare .Streetlights passed in a quiet rhythm, their glow sliding across Leo’s face. In sleep, the boy looked peaceful. Nothin
The silence between us LOST IN THE CROWD
Chapter 5: Lost in the CrowdSaturday arrived faster than Lucas wanted.The city woke up bright and loud, dressed in banners and flashing screens. The long awaited TV series launch was finally here, and the venue buzzed with excitement. Cameras were already set, reporters gathered in groups, and fans filled the streets outside the grand hall. Lucas stood in front of the mirror, adjusting the cuff of his dark suit. His face was calm, but inside, his thoughts were restless. Behind him, Leo sat quietly on the bed, his small legs swinging. He wore a neat little outfit chosen carefully by the nanny. His eyes were open, but distant, as if his mind was somewhere far away.Lucas turned and leaned down in front of him."You'll stay close to me daddy today, okay?" he said softly. Leo did not reply. He only nodded once, slowly. The nanny smiled gently. "He's had been calm since today." Lucas stood up and took a deep breath. Calm did not always mean safe. He had learned that the hard way.M
The silence between us WELCOME TO SERENITY
Chapter 4 : Welcome to serenity Lyra woke up to the sound of her alarm. For a few seconds,she lay still, staring at the ceiling.Today was her first day at work. She slowly sat up and swung her legs off the bed. The floor was cold under her feet. She hugged herself for a moment, then stood up. “Be brave,” she whispered. She walked into the bathroom and turned on the light. The mirror showed her tired eyes and pale face. Lyra turned on the shower. Warm water rushed down, filling the small bathroom with steam. She closed her eyes and let the water run over her head. This job is important, she told herself. Don't mess it up. She washed quickly, dried herself, and brushed her hair neatly. She chose simple clothes nothing fancy. Just clean and professional. Before leaving, she took one last look around her apartment then she locked the door and stepped outside. Serenity Healing Clinic looked calm from the outside. The building was tall, with clean glass windows and soft
The silence between us A FRESH START
Chapter 3: A fresh start Lucas did not move at all. He stood in the middle of the grocery aisle like time had stopped just for him. His phone was still in his hand, he was lost in thought .People walked past him, carts rolling, but none of it reached him. All he could feel were his lips warm. His heart was beating fast, harder than it ever did. His breath felt uneven, and that alone shocked him.That never happened. Lucas Thorne was not a man who lost control. He slowly raised his hand and touched his mouth, his fingers brushing lightly as if he needed proof that what just happened was real. His eyes darkened slightly. A woman had kissed him. Lucas turned his head toward the exit. She was gone. No hesitation,No looking back. She disappeared into the crowd as if she had never been there at all. For a moment, something strange tightened in his chest; Confusion and curiosity. Lucas Thorne owned Omnicore Tech group, the top tech company in the city. His days were fille
