I pressed my back to the wall as a lady passed, but not before I get a glimpse of her eyes that startled me. I closed my eyes and counted to ten before I opened them, watching a big bulky man pass.     There was no way I was seeing her now in hospital hallways, it just didn’t make any sense to me. making sure that no one else was passing I back into the hallway and enter the office with Dr. Shelby written on top.     He looked surprised to see me, his expression startled but he masked it into one of cool indifference.     “I wasn’t expecting to see you Mr. Don” he said, motioning for me to sit down which I did. I was too exhausted to do otherwise anyway.      I let my eyes wander around the office, the place always neat and arranged. It was easy to see that Dr. Shelby was an organized fellow and that meant

      With all the information that I managed to get out of Frank without seeming suspicious, I dug deeper into my research.     The file I had stolen from Don’s office did half of the job for me. It was evidence that the two families were dealing in arms and drugs. This was enough to put them behind bars and confiscate all their properties but no doubt they could have connections that would bail them out. I needed something stronger.       It was already a few days and Don was yet to return to the office. I would never admit out loud but, it had me worried. When I asked Drew about it again, he asked me not to worry. But I just couldn’t and telling Charles about it was a bad idea.     The door cracked open and I immediately shove the evidence on my lap down. Drew poked out his head before gradually coming out with a stack of files in his hand.

      Don is the enemy. Don is the enemy.     I chanted in my head as conflicted thoughts plagued my head. Spending time with him and Jenny yesterday made me see him in a new light.     And then he had been calling my name over and over again in his sleep. Was he dreaming of me? I shook my head. What was I even thinking, it wasn’t possible.     But then the way he had held my hand and entwined my fingers with his. I remembered the way it made me feel. Loved, safe, and warmth. It awoke something in me that I didn’t even know existed.     My hand flew to my chest, it was really fast. What was this thing that I was beginning to feel for Don? It couldn’t be just worry.     I went over the events of yesterday in my head but most of them didn’t even make sense to me. especially when he had been

     Cassie called the office the next morning asking for me. I was wearing one of the white shirts she had gotten me and a crisp black pant.     Charles had been startled when I got home the previous day sporting new hairstyle and clothes. I would never forget his reaction in a hurry.     He was drinking juice straight from the container and the moment he laid his eyes on me, the contents of his mouth came flying out, luckily it was not in my direction. And then he had screamed my name.     I laughed a little remembering it now. He had given me dinner when I was done telling my story, but he complimented my new look anyway. I left out the part where Cassie had kissed my cheek, I didn’t know what to make out of that yet.     I was currently in the car with Cassie and Daisy. Here is how it happened.     She called Drew a

      I played over the events of yesterday all over in my mind. Charles had not believed everything that I told him, especially Cassie’s advancements but I hadn’t either.     I had stayed up all night playing out different scenarios of what was actually going on between Cassie and Drew. She had mentioned him loving someone else, who could it possibly be?     My head was aching from all the questions that I had, I needed all the answers to them soon enough.     With the help of Charles we had stayed up all night compiling all the information that I’d gotten from the files into proof that the Meyer and Zaverelli family were dealing in illegal drugs and arms. The plan was to upload it during Cassie’s birthday party.     Charles would tip off the police and let them in in disguise. My fingers were crossed that it would
