Chapter 49
After talking about Abu, and finishing their dinner, Blake arranged the table and washed the dishes when suddenly a mug slipped on the basin which was filled with water and it splashed on his face.
Blake was taken aback the moment the cold water touched his face.
"Oh, my bad!" he whispered and Evangeline began to laugh at him when she saw his reaction and how damp his face was.
Blake stared at her and his heart skipped a bit to see Evangeline's happiness. He grinned and suddenly filled the mug with water and splashed it to her.
Surprised, Evangeline stood up and glanced at him, who was taking revenge and laughing at her.
"Oh, that's what you want hah!" she said and got back to him. He also splashed some water with him and they began playing with the water.
"Hey, stop it!" Evangeline screamed as Blake kept on splashing water at her.

Chapter 50Pocco was waiting for Abu in the hospital. The day after their accident, he felt glad that he could discharge him earlier than expected."Hey," he waved at Abu when he was done changing his clothes, wearing the clothes he bought for him.Abu smiled and walked towards him."Hey, thank you for paying the bills for me," he said."It's alright, anyway are you ready to head to Blake's house?" he asked.Abu suddenly went confused, the name was not familiar, but he thought maybe it was one of Pocco's family in his house."Yes, thank you again for giving me a place to stay for a while," he was grateful as they were walking in the hospital's hallway."Oh, I forgot to mention, Evangeline's boyfriend decided to let you leave near their house, they had a guest house in the back of the main house. You will love there, I
Chapter 51It was afternoon when Pocco left and Blake took the opportunity to talk with Abu."Hi," Blake said to Abu who was standing outside their garden, thinking deeply, while Evangeline was in the guest room, fixing a room for Abu.Abu immediately turned to face him, "Blake," he softly responded and Blake smiled at him."I just want to check on you. I didn't know how to start, but I felt guilty knowing you are being punished because of me. You're not supposed to be here, but it's nice to meet a grim reaper. Now I felt like I'm not the only one unusual creatures living here on Earth," he smiled.Abu was stunned by his statement, he didn't expect him to say those nor to know that he knew about him."How did you know?" he asked, still surprised as he stared at Blake."Evangeline told me," he honestly answered. Abu now realized how closed
Chapter 52"Abu... Abu..." a soft whisper from Evangeline woke up Abu. Opening his eyes slowly, he saw Evangeline's eyes, staring and smiling at him. He felt a butterfly in his stomach, realizing how wonderful his morning started. He cleared his throat by the thought of being delighted to see her first thing in the morning."Evangeline?" he whispered and sat on the bed."Did I disturb your sleep?" she asked.He shook his head and said, "No, not actually," he smiled.*You actually lightened my day!* those thoughts were begging to come out of his mouth but he made sure no such nonsense would leak on his mouth."Alright, I'm glad I didn't. I don't really want to wake you but I want us to eat together," she said.He smiled as he got up on the bed, "How do you fix this?" he asked.Evangeline smiled as she picked up the bla
Chapter 53It's been a week since Abu came, it was his third day at the museum. Blake assigned him to be one of the watchers, he was in a room filled with screens watching all the CCTV records, making sure nothing was inconvenient around and inside the museum.Abu didn't have a hard time especially since he was only there, seating all day, roaming around sometimes and he was also happily talking with other guards going in and out of the room."You're leaving this town? And you will be gone for 3 days?" Evangeline said while seating next to him, and they were also with the three, Sheira, who was still irritated to be around Pocco, and Abu who was quietly listening there, and Pocco; who was ignoring Sheira, still upset to her and he never talked to her since they got back to work.All of them were surprised at what Blake announced to them while they were having lunch outside, in one of the cafeterias n
Chapter Fifty Four"Aww, I'm going to miss you," Evangeline said as she was trying to help Blake to fix his pieces of stuff that he needed at work before he left."I'm gonna miss you too, my love," he smiled. "But don't worry, I'll be there just a few days," he added and she nodded her head."Well, yeah, I guess that can't be helped. You also have to focus on your work. Besides, Abu is here with me," she smiled."Yes, and you know what, I like him," he said."Really?""Yes, I really feel comfortable with him.""That's good to know, I'm happy that you like him.""Oh, I forgot, Since, Abu didn't know to drive a car, I asked Pocco to come to pick you both every morning and same with dropping you home while I'm away, would that be alright?""Yes, that's fine. As long that it's okay to him," she said."Of cou
Chapter 55 Evangeline and Sheira were with a group of people who were from another country and came to visit the museum. Sheira was competing with her in elucidating the history of everything that was in the museum on the guest out of anger after knowing her relationship with Blake. Evangeline felt the intense atmosphere between them as they kept leading the way the guest. Sheira seemed like she didn't want to drop off her pride and kept speaking out loud as if she was getting all the attention of the tourists. Pocco immediately put his gazes at them the moment he hears Sheira's voice. He was observing some antique making sure no one has been touched or moved when she noticed that Sheira was talking out loud that only her voice could be heard in the whole building. He watched in wonder, trying to reckon what was going on with her. "Why does she have to be so loud? Is she going ins
Chapter 56Pocco drove them home after their work and Evangeline was eager to comfort him but she was thinking about what Abu said. Bringing out Sheira might not be a good time."Do you want to stay for a while? Let's have some coffee before you go," she offered and Pocco who was seating on the driver's seat glanced at her."Maybe some other time," he responded and Evangeline just smiled as she said goodbye to him.Heading inside the house, Abu glanced at her, "Is Sheira always like that? I never thought she was about to hit you, is she hurting you before?"Evangeline smiled and sat on the couch and Abu followed after her."No, it's the first time she treated me that way. She is mean, but I never thought that she could be like that, you know, what you saw," she sighed."I'm just thankful I went on time, or else she lay a han
Chapter 57Evangeline instantly opened his eyes the moment she felt something or someone next to her, sleeping beside her in the middle of the night. Blake was supposed to come 2 days more so she got panicked and suddenly stood up and wanted to scream but it seemed like her voice was stuck on her throat."Where are you going, my love?" a voice asked and she recognized his voice. She suddenly switched on the light and Blake covered his eyes with his hands."Oh, that's so bright," he whispered in a sleepy voice as he gradually opened his eyes to glance at Evangeline."You make me nervous, you're not supposed to be here, did something happen at your work?" she asked and slowly went near him and sat on the edge of the floor, facing him.Blake stared at her, "Well, yes, but while sleeping, I dreamt of you, I was in a dark room and you were there, wearing a glamorous w
