They arrived at a house some time later. Just like before, Rose motioned for the men to carry Diane into the house and Michael walked behind them. He is surprised Diane hasn't shown any sign of waking up despite how much she was being moved around. Well, he does not know what was fed to her so he was left with no choice but to follow closely behind them. He is so confused by everything that was happening. The discussion and planning he had with Rose was a lot different than this. Everything has changed and he was also waiting for a surprise every now and then. "Leave us alone" Rose sent the men away after they lay Diane down on the bed. And they close the door gently behind them. "Strip her off her outer garments" Rose said to Micheal, who in return stared at her like she was crazy. "Why are you giving me that look, I believe that is not new to you. Do as I tell you we don't have much time. She will be waking up soon." Rose gave little thought to the stunned look he was gi

Diane decided to retire to bed early even though she was not sleepy. She was very worried, she had last seen Jeremy since morning and he hasn't been picking her calls since noon. She was informed by the secretary that he left with Gregg in early afternoon but did not return to the office and she had kept waiting for him. Where are you Jeremy?. The ringing of her phone startled her from her daze. Picking up the call. "Hello" she said in a dejected manner. "Heyyyy, Diane dear. I have missed you so so much, you are the worst friend ever. You haven't checked on me all these while" Rhea's loud voice penetrated the phone. Diane flinched from how loud she was talking and how noisy the background noise was. Where the hell is she?. "I'm sorry I have been caught up in work" Diane apologized sincerely, because she has also been feeling unhappy that she hasn't checked on her but Rhea was far from being offended as she yelled into the phone. "Where are you now? Home?". Diane reduces

Rhea opens her eyes frowning at the brightness of the room. Who turned on the lights?. She doesn't sleep with the lights on. "Are you awake? Or do you still want to sleep some more?. I can assure you it's noon already by the way". Benjamin's presence in the room confuses Rhea. " What are you doing in my room?" She asked, ignoring the headache that's about to split her head in half. Benjamin threw her a glare at the question. "I will have some clothes prepared for you, take your bath and join me for breakfast". The words that rolled off his tongue sound strange to her. Why was he talking to her that way?. Why does he sound angry?. And this is not her room!. Looking down at her clothes, her eyes widened as she realized she was still in the clothes she wore out yesterday. She hadn't changed them before going to bed. How had she gotten here?. Rhea feels her body come alive after the hot shower. She smiles at her reflection from the mirror. She was glad she had successful

Rose's brow furrow when she heard the door bell rang through the quiet house. She had been preparing a meal and wasn't expecting anyone by this time of the day. Opening the door she got the biggest shock of the day. She mask her surprise by smiling at him. "Jeremy I wasn't expecting you-. "Can I come in?" He cut her off annoyed by the pleasantries. "Of course" Rose moved out of the way for him. Her palm grows sweaty as she became nervous. The last time she had set her eyes on him was when she was in Diane's room and she had been so angry that day but now he was in her house to see her!. Rose remain composed as she follow him to the living area, he remain standing even after she offered him a seat and she frown at him in confusion. "What are you up to Rose?". Hearing him say her name made her feel giddy inside. They haven't had real conversations before, it is either him calling to inform her about one or two things about Lawrence but here he was now. " Nothing serious ac

Diane's POVI find it hard to tear my eyes off the diamond ring that now occupies my finger, it still feels surreal and I really need a wake up call and I know exactly where I can get it.I pick up my phone and dial Rhea's number immediately even though it is just a few minutes past eight AM and she is probably still in bed or already at work."Hey what's up babe" she picked the call faster than I expected and she sounded to be in a good mood which is surprising because I was expecting her to nag at me for calling this early like she normally does."I'm alright, what about you?" I linger as I grow nervous, I just need someone to wake me up from my dream but I am afraid the reality will be harsher than I can bear."Well… I'm good. So spill it"Why have you called?" She seemed to have sensed my nervousness over the line."I just ….missed you and I thought maybe you can come over to my place after work so that we can hang out" "I have a surprise for you by the way." I replied happil
