Love never announces it coming; it crawls in like a thief. . .****** Seeing that she looked faint, Officer Bruce moved Suzanne to the hospital’s chair to have a seat. Then he crouched beside her chair.  “And that’s all? Are you saying you expect us to believe this?” He asked her.  “Why not! It’s the truth.” She told him frowningly.  “Well, that’s left for the police to decide. We will need you to come to the station with us for an official pen down and then we would carry out our investigation. Your story is hard to believe, ma'am.” He told her in a soft tone.  “Unfortunately, I believe her. She has no reason to lie. Besides, I’m sure she said the truth and if I had been calm enough, I would have known the answer to my questions.&rdqu

 A dark soul is pollution to his environment. . .*****Pacing to stand by the window, Mike looked out without really seeing the car park.  Suddenly, he dialed a number and made a call. “Hello Mark, this is Mike Stanford. I want you to drop everything you’re doing and work on this for me. I don’t mind the cost, but I need you to find this guy. I don’t have much information on the guy but his name is Tom and he used to date one of my employees, Liza. I will send you a picture once I can get it from her phone, but until then, do your own research and find him for me.”  He told the other person on the phone and after getting an affirmative response, he dropped the call to continue his pace by the window.  If only Liza will just wake and talk to him.  ******Blessed w

Persistence can open doors. . . *****   Walking into the hospital later that evening, Stella wondered if Mike knew what he was doing.    Having called a few days back to give a report on Liza’s health and also instructed Stella to cancel anything that might need his personal attention, he hadn’t made a single call of appearance to the office and neither had he called again.    Just a brief message in the morning telling Stella what and what not to do till he is back at the office.    And now, having noticed Liza’s absence and of course the boss’s absence, there is a rumour brewing and puzzled and confused, Stella has decided, as a friend and not just an employee, to come to the hospital and see for her eyes, exactly what was going on.    And now, here she is, waiting for a nurse to lead her to Liza’s private room. 

Hope should never be lost. . .   *****   Getting news that was different from what he feared, Mike almost fell from the joy of it. He felt like dancing and at the same time, he felt like putting his head on the doctor’s shoulder to weep deeply like he had never done since he was a child.    This of course was more than absurd. He had never been the type to give rein to public emotions and display, so he wondered where that came from.    Raising his shoulder as if that would get rid of the unwelcome emotions, he closed his eyes tightly before opening them to look at the doctor. Smiling, he moved to the doctor to take her hand in appreciation but her next words stopped him in his tracks.    “Unfortunately, I also have some bad news.” Having decided to just say it, the doctor quickly informed him in a rush before he c

Chemistry will always be a strong pull…******Forty five minutes later, Mike walked into the room and found her that way, soundly asleep. He gave a breath of relief as he dropped the tray of food he was holding on the table.Moving to stand beside the bed, he couldn’t help but touch her face with a light finger. Brushing a strand of hair from her face, he bent his head and gave her a very light kiss on the head. And that was when Liza opened her eyes to look directly into his blue eyeballs.Having felt a light feathery touch on her face and forehead, Liza opened her eyes and was not so shocked to see Mike as she looked directly into his sexy eyes. Hmm, what a way to wake from sleep! She thought dreamily.Seeing the dreamy look on her face, Mike almost kissed her full on the lips. But remembering why they were there, Mike abruptly gave a small cough and straightened from the bed.Oh dammit! The dre
