Karl Thompson...I didn't want to leave my wife home alone in the state that she is. But, work once again pulled me away.My PA had called to tell me that the board was in chaos because of Garzei Chaw.Apparently the man really wanted to sue us for defamation, which was absolutely ridiculous.He'd demanded the video of Lucy confessing to my sister be taken off the enternet as if we were the one's who posted it in the first place.My PA had tried to talk some sense into the man, telling him that it was out of our hands for the time being and that it would take time to get the video off the net.My father in-law wasn't having any of it and now, he's in my damn company, causing a scene and refusing to leave unless he speaks to me.The nerve on the man after he best my wife black and blue Her small figure i saw in the hospital bed kept flashing in my head. Her bruised face and broken wrist... My God, how i wanted to commit murder right there and then.I was in the

Lucy Chaw...I bounced my leg up and down, worried about what the doctor might say.This is the first time I've stepped out of the house since about six weeks ago. About a week later after i got discharged from the hospital after my father had attacked me, i did try to leave the house to get some fresh air and convince Karl that i would be more than fine to go to work to help out a bit.But as soon as I'd walked out of the house, a sea of reporters had crashed into me, shoving their mic's in my face and asking me a series of question. Mostly about the bruises on my face, around my neck and tye cast on my wrist.I'd immediately panicked and tried to run back into the house only to trip and land on my bad arm, explains why i needed another week in my cast.I was luck that Karl hadn't trust me to go out alone and he'd demanded that Ethan and Stuart come with me every step i take. They were able to stop the reporters and get me back in to the house.Karl, who was

I stared at the phone as it continued to ring for several times and yet, i couldn't being myself to picking it up.I want to, i really do. But some part of me is telling me not to slide the green button, not to answer the phone because nothing good would ever come from it. Especially after she'd called me to tell me to leave her alone a few weeks ago. I just can't do it.The ringing stopped and the caller id once again went straight to my call log.Seven missed calls.I was tempted to shut my phone again and ignore the rest of the world."You okay?"Karl's voice snapped me out of my daze and i gasped before looking over to him. His concern was clear as day, an expression he has been wearing very often these days."Yeah. I'm okay."Karl sighed before walking over to me. He sat next to me and reached for my left hand."How did things go with Stuart?" I asked, to which Karl nodded his head."He'll be fine. He's just a little freaked out about what happened a couple of weeks ago.""Is he

"Are you nervous?" Karl asked after he took a sip of his black coffee.I sighed before leaning back on my seat and pouted a bit."Just a little." I answered.Picking up my fork, i stabbed a large egg and stuffed it in my mouth. To be completely honest, I'm really nervous. Today is the first day I'm getting back to work after two month. January and February went by in a blink of an eyes and all i managed to do was hide at home and rest in the loving arms of my husband. But that ends today.The first of March is the day i go back to the Davis Company and I'm excited but also a lot nervous. I have a lot to catch up on and the last thing i want to do is mess up on my first day back.My boss didn't have a assistant before me so he would do fine without me so my spot as his assistant can be revoked at anytime.Princi had called me yesterday and asked if the rumors of my return were true. I haven't seen her since i got out of the hospital the day of Kaily's presentation even though she had

I looked down at Karl's sleeping face and hesitated.Should i wake him up and do it?I hugged the year book closer to my chest as i contemplated on my decision.Today, I'd spent the entire evening with my year book.As soon as i got off work at Lunch, i called Ethan and came home right away. After i had coffee ... Chocolate milkshake with Felisha, I'd been wanting to get back to my year book and keep on making mends. So, that's what i did.I came home, had Lunch with Ethan and a very moody Stuart - because he's quiting smoking - and i went upstairs to get some privacy with my year book.I'd called about a dozen of people, some were tougher than others but by the end of each call, I'd checked a little right mark on the side of their names.I'd stopped for a few minutes when Karl got home. He didn't want dinner and because he was exhausted, he immediately went to sleep.I, on the other hand, went back to making my calls.And now, with one last name to check off the year book, i have th
