CARA
I hand over the drugs to him and a glass of water . He tries to hold the glass cup but his hand is shaking badly . "I'd help you pour some in your mouth , guess who the little baby is now ? " I say as I giggle and draw closer to help him use his drug . "Thank you" he says trying to force a smile . This is the first time in ages I'll see Liam weak and vulnerable. He has always made extra efforts to be take charge of every situation. He takes a sip from the glass and hurriedly throws the drugs down his throat. He struggles to swallow them . " I hope I never fall sick ever again." He mutters in frustration. I put a pillow at his back so he can sit a little upright for this food to digest. "Cara I know I'd be asking for to much but please can you stay at my place till I feel better, let's say five to six days . " I go mute for a moment and i minutes with my eyebrows raised. "That's a lot Liam, 6 days is a really long time ; that's approximately one week. " one a second thought, "I'd d

Words cannot express how grateful I am that Cara has been staying with me these past few days. She treats me like an egg and subtly, it makes me happy. Feels like it’s been ages since someone cared for me this much. It was a huge error on my part to even offer to pay her while she was here. She was offended. I'm glad I closed that chapter quickly and brought up an amusing topic.“What’s making you grin?” She asks “How long have you been standing there? ”“Not quite long. brought your dinner.”“Thank you. You should have called me rather than stress yourself by bringing it up. I can walk, remember?”“I don’t want you stressing.”“I’m not.”“I hope I don’t get addicted to eating your meals. You cook so well.”“You say this every day. Thank you.”“That’s because it’s the truth. The way you keep stuffing me with well-cooked meals morning, afternoon and evening. I hope I can make out of my door without struggling.”“Please, that’s too much exaggeration.” She says giggling.I love that She

CARA
CARA“Somehow I love putting Liam on his toes. You can call me weird, I don’t mind. I understand that he is simply asking for a harmless outing to make up for how he previously treated me, to make things right, and to make the few remaining moments we have together special. I ponder for a few minutes while staring at Liam, "Liam has always been a really sweet soul and the softest person you can meet but acts so tough . I break the silence with a long, stretch, very audible sigh.“Liam you do not have to look gloomy, I’m sorry I reacted the way I did . I over reacted .” I say giving him my puppy-eyed expression while focusing on his eyes. “I just want to make you happy and see you happy for the longest of times” he says looking like a kid his mom took candy from . I I approach him and smile as I hug him. He brightens, and I am relieved. “Is that a yes then?” He asks me with the nicest smile. “It most certainly is,” I reply, extending my hand to shake his and signalling that the bu

“It’s so good to see you Rosa.” I say cheerily as I open my arms to hug her unfortunately she didn’t respond to it. “I’m so annoyed with you.”“What have I done this time?”“You’ve not been answering my calls!”“Because I know how you get when I’m sick. You wouldn’t even let me lift a piece of paper and I know your detection skills never fail you. There’s no way I could have hidden it if I decided to respond to your call.”“I forgive you because I know how I can be but you have to make it up to me.”“Definitely.”“Hope you are feeling a lot better because you look like it.”“I am.”“I dropped by the office and Veronica told me you’ve not been in for a while.”“Yes, I decided to take the week off.”“Liam I know would never take a leave except it has to do with Laura. Must have really been bad.”“Yes it was but the doctor insisted that I needed rest, a lot of it.”“Great. Where’s Laura?”“She’s with my mum. How’s traveling round the continent coming along?”“It’s been wonderful. Guess

CARA
I had no choice but to tell Liam the reason I left and ended things was because my mum was critically ill and needed treatment. I also lied that I had to end things with him because I didn't know how the next days, months or years of my life would look like. Where I would be and so on. I didn't want to complicate things for him hence my reason for ending things with him. Having responded to his long troubled question, I'm assured that such question will not surface anymore. We both cried like babies and bid ourselves goodnight and the rest of the week he spent with his mum. He offered I came along but I rejected. A family dinner or breakfast at the table with his father is the last thing on my to do list. Right now I really don't care about his opinion on where Liam and I stand now. I've suffered too much and if being with Liam makes me happy then I will be with him regardless of what his father has to say. You sound so confident. Knowing you as well as I do, you'll be out of town

LIAM
Now I wonder why Cara felt shy and uncomfortable about expressing how I feel towards her in public . She has always been a big fan of PDA . I normally am the shy and private type so I am not so into publicly showing affection, but I will always do everything in my might to show how much I love Cara and how dedicated I am to making her happy . I walk into my office, pick up my key and head to the elevator that leads to the parking lot . I get to the entrance of the elevator and see Cara and Veronica standing there waiting to get in . “Hey Cee “Cara recognizes my voice and turns back . Veronica looks back in shock as her eyes are wide open. “Ohh Liam, You’re still around , I thought you went home already ?”She says stammering. I can tell that she’s so uncomfortable with my new habit of showing affection towards her at the office . I’m eager for everyone in this building to get the message because Cara is very attractive and that doesn’t go unnoticed by the male workers in thi

“Spilllllllllllllllllllll!”“Girl chill.” I say smiling “The only thing that’s chilling is the bottle of whine we are popping right now.” She says as the waitress strolls towards us with a bottle of wine in a bucket. I blame Liam. Now I can’t but narrate everything that went down. I blush recollecting our date especially the part where all we did was gaze at the stars in silence for God knows how long. “Someone’s blushing. This is not the Cara that strolled in month’s back. This is a whole new one and I like her better. With the way Mr Johnson is going, we just might be hearing wedding bells very soon.”“Slow down Veronica! The walls have ears and he hasn’t even asked me out yet.”“I don’t care. I want the whole of Ireland to hear. Knowing my boss, he likes to cut to the chase. He might just skip that part and ask you to marry him.”“I’m out.” I say dragging my chair out from the table.“If you dare stand up from that seat, I'll chop off your legs and feed them to my bunnies.”“The

CARAI step out in a thin strap dark green silk dress.“I’m not sure I want us to go out for this date anymore.”“Why?”“Because I don’t want anyone looking at you. You look breathe taken. For a moment, I couldn’t breathe after setting my eyes on you. You are an epitome of beauty. You, the dress, the heels. I might just end up one knee’s tonight.”I wouldn’t be surprised if everyone in this estate can hear my heartbeat. The dress is doing exactly what I want it to do. The see-through beaded heels is gorgeous. Liam handed it over to me earlier today with a few other items I’m yet to know the content. He suggested I wear the heels tonight. I like how he mentioned he wasn’t insisting I wear it and that I can always go with any other option. “Are you okay?”“Yes, yes I am.” I say flushed.“Thought I lost you there.”“You look clean as always and very handsome.”He places his hand on his chest feigning shock and then bows in appreciation.“For a complement you get every second, everyday,
