SCARLETT. Once we were done with breakfast, Finn went to get the car ready while I waited for Tiffany to get our lunch ready. I didn't particularly hate it but I also didn't like that she was packing our lunch like we were kids going to middle school. But trust Tiffany to wave me off each time I tried to tell her that we could get lunch from the deli or a restaurant nearby. "Here's a plate for you and a plate for Finn," She said as she placed the boxes in front of me. I stared down at it and sighed. "Tiffany, you know you don't have to do this, right?" She gave me a look. "But I want to. There's nothing you can do about it, okay?" "I feel like a middle school student, Tiffany." "Nobody gives a damn. You're the CEO of your own company and Finn what's he? Your driver or bodyguard?" I lowered my head, knowing the question she wanted to ask. "He has his own cubicle." She stamped her hand on the table. "I guess we won't be having a problem then." Fin

SCARLETT. Finn was silent for the whole of the drive to the hospital. He was brooding and I noticed his jaw clenched and unclenched over fifty times. His knuckles were white as his fingers wrapped around the steering wheel and when I dared to ask him what was wrong, he told me it was nothing to worry about so I let him be. We finally got to the hospital. He killed the engine and stepped down from the car before coming over to where I stood to pull the door open. "Finn. Is something wrong?" "Nah, nothing is wrong.." He said in the lightest tone ever but I knew he was lying to me. He wasn't telling the truth and it was obvious in the way he spoke. "Stop trying to sound light-hearted. It's obvious that something is wrong. Are you going to tell me what it is or not?" He sighed. "Later? I just want to know how Raya is doing before I say anything." I caught his pinky finger before he could walk away. He stopped and looked back at me. "Promise?" He threw his h

FINN. Raya was getting better and in a few weeks, she was going to be enrolled into the rehabilitation center. She was getting a new leg soon so she was going to learn how to use it. Volkov was going to return next week to get things ready as he was returning to America in no time. It had me confused at first but now that I felt something for Scarlett, I understood that love could make you do anything. It wasn't going to be easy for Volkov because his parents didn't particularly like him dating Raya. But they were grown adults already and could make their own decisions now. In the meantime, I drove Scarlett to work. We tried to act like there wasn't something huge looming on our heads. From her wedding to Kelvin's true identity. "You know, I just want to live in the moment where I have no issues." Scarlett had said to me last night before we went to sleep. "I don't want to think about no fucking wedding or Kelvin's affiliation with a mafia group I have never hear

FINN. "What's that?" I asked as I looked at a hand. A chrome-colored flash drive was in her hand and when she turned it over, it had "For Scarlett." Inscribed on it. She was as confused as I was too, shrugging as she had no idea. "I don't know what it is, Finn. But if it's a drive, then it definitely contains some sort of information in it." I took it from her hand and looked at it under the light. Something told me that this flash contained important information. "Let's go check it out?" I asked as I pushed the car door open. She followed suit and in no time, she was closing the door that led to the garage. That was the end of our car tour. We had more important things to attend to. When we got into the house, she went into her room to bring her laptop and returned to the living room where I was seated. She pulled a seat out, opened her laptop, and turned it on before sticking the drive into a port. She opened the drive. It was named the same thing th

SCARLETT. We remained in my room for a while. I was honestly tired. Tired to the point that I couldn't even say a thing. However, many… so many thoughts were swimming rent-free in my mind.There was Lucas’s death and there was the constant fear that I would end up losing Finn as well. He was entering a danger zone for me but I wasn't able to stop him. Even if I wanted to, I am certain he wouldn't listen to me. Things were spiraling out of control. However, I loved how Finn was able to handle me. He cradled me in his arms, and lay back on the bed rest. "A therapist?" I said after several minutes of silence. He nodded and moved underneath me with ease. These were one of the things that made me feel safe around him. "Yes, a therapist. I don't know how it works but you have a lot of healing to do. I hate that it gets to you so much. Your parents were absent and never knew all of these. A therapist listens to you and procures solutions and that's what we're going to find thi
