Anna POV

“Sorry… are you sure?”

The words barely came out.

I heard myself stammer.

Actually stammer.

I had never stammered in my entire existence. Not during arguments, not during presentations, not even when I was caught doing something I had absolutely no business doing.

But now my tongue wouldn’t cooperate.

“G-Greadow Hospital?”

“Yes, ma’am.”

I gripped the phone tighter.

“I’m so sorry, but… are you sure you have the right number?”

The person on the other end paused.

    Anna POV The driver nodded. We pulled away. I leaned back against the seat. And then the thoughts started. What if she was unconscious? What if she had internal bleeding? What if— No. I shook my head. Stop. She was Lydia. She was stubborn. Infuriating. Impossible. The woman could survive anything. She had survived heartbreak. A divorce. Two children. A career. My terrible cooking. She was going to survive this too. She had to. I looked out the window. Traffic crawled. “Please, God.” I wasn’t even sure I’d said it aloud. The driver glanced at me through the mirror. I looked away. My fingers wouldn’t stop moving. I twisted my ring. Untwisted it. Checked my phone. Put it down. Picked it up again. No message. Every minute stretched into something unbearable. I imagined her alone. I imagined her calling for the children. I imagined her opening her eyes and wondering where everyone was. Then my brain supplied worse images, and I squeezed my eyes shut

    Anna POV “Sorry… are you sure?” The words barely came out. I heard myself stammer. Actually stammer. I had never stammered in my entire existence. Not during arguments, not during presentations, not even when I was caught doing something I had absolutely no business doing. But now my tongue wouldn’t cooperate. “G-Greadow Hospital?” “Yes, ma’am.” I gripped the phone tighter. “I’m so sorry, but… are you sure you have the right number?” The person on the other end paused. “The vehicle involved was registered under the plate number GX-1009SH.” Everything inside me went still. That was her car. There was no mistaking it. “Please…” My voice cracked. “Please get here as soon as you can.” The call ended. I stared at the phone. For several seconds, I couldn’t move. Then my body finally caught up with my brain. I jumped off the bed. I was halfway out of my bedroom in my bathrobe before the nanny called again. I answered immediately. “Bring the children to my house.” “Ma

    Anna POVI was having one of those nights where spending money felt less like a financial decision and more like a well-earned reward.My husband had handed me his black card earlier with the kind of confidence that told me he was very pleased with himself.And honestly?After the performance I had given him tonight, I couldn’t blame the man.If you know, you know.I had earned this shopping spree.I was sprawled comfortably across the bed, one leg tucked beneath me, my laptop balanced in front of me as I scrolled through a new designer website I’d discovered earlier that evening.Premium bags.Shoes.Jewelry.The kind of website where you clicked on an item, saw the price, blinked twice, and then reminded yourself that your husband’s black card existed for a reason.“Hmm…”I paused over a pair of heels.Cute.Expensive.Completely unnecessary.Naturally, I added them to my wishlist.I scrolled again.Then I saw the jewelry section.Gold.My eyes narrowed.Lydia’s voice immediately ca

    Lydia POV“Have I made a terrible mistake taking you on as a client?”I frowned.“Excuse me?”“It’s seven in the evening.”“So?”“My work hours have officially ended.”“Dr. Sana—”“Call me tomorrow morning.”“Please.”“No.”“Doctor.”“No.”“Dr. Sana.”“Lydia.”I sighed dramatically.“Please. I’m having an elder-sister moment.”Silence.Then I heard her laugh.“You are shameless.”“I learned from the best.”“You owe me a trip to Barbados after this.”“Fine.”“I’m serious.”“I’ll send you to Barbados.”“With a spa package.”“Yes.”“Five-star hotel.”“Yes.”“Business class.”I rolled my eyes.“You’re becoming expensive.”“You’re the one who called after hours.”“Please analyze me before I change my mind.”She laughed again.“Fine. Read me your answers.”So I did.One by one.She didn’t interrupt much.Every now and then, she’d make a quiet sound of acknowledgment.“Mmm.”“Interesting.”“Go on.”When I finished, there was a long silence.“So?” I asked.“So,” she said slowly, “I think you’

    Lydia POVNot because I didn’t like him.Because admire felt like too big a word.Eventually, I wrote:I don’t think “admire” describes it.Then:I’m happy when I see him doing well. It feels almost like watching an older brother? No. Younger brother. Like seeing someone I care about finally figuring his life out.I frowned.Again with the younger brother thing.“Interesting.”I circled it.Seventh: If romance disappeared tomorrow, would I still want this person in my life?This one was easy.Theo — absolutely.I smiled.I’d still want him around. But honestly, I don’t know if he’d want that.I hesitated.Because that thought actually hurt a little.Then Dave.I almost laughed.Romance disappeared years ago and he’s still in my life. So… obviously.I underlined obviously.Eighth: Am I attracted to him—or attracted to how he makes me feel about myself?I stared at that question.Then dropped the pen onto the mattress.“No.”I picked it back up.“Nope.”I dropped it again.“This is stup

    Lydia POVYou know what?I was changing my mind.I couldn’t allow these two men to keep occupying valuable real estate in my head like they had paid rent.I had work tomorrow. Two children who somehow managed to turn every ordinary day into an Olympic event. A client who was currently giving me enough problems to qualify as a second full-time job. Bills. Emails. Meetings.And somehow, here I was, sitting on my bed at night, conducting an internal election between two grown men.Absolutely ridiculous.I reached for the notebook Dr. Sana had given me.“Fine,” I muttered. “Let’s just get this over with.”I crossed my legs beneath me, opened the notebook, uncapped my pen, and stared at the first question.First: How do I feel before I see him?I tapped my pen against my chin.“With Dave…”I paused.My mouth twisted slightly.“Weird.”I wrote it down.Then I added:With Dave, I feel weird, but in a good way.I stared at the sentence.Okay.That was vague.Very insightful, Lydia.I moved on
