Anne sat on the edge of the small bed in her small room, she felt uneasy, it was like something was wrong but she could not figure it out yet. She had just gotten back from work and she was tired but the way she was feeling, overshadowed the tiredness. She began to bite her nails and tap her feet continuously on the rug in her room, while the fingers on her other hand kept tapping her knee at the same time. This, she always did whenever she was anxious and needed to figure her thoughts out."Why do I feel so uneasy?" She asked herself, as she began to drown herself in different thoughts.Anne Jones; my best friend, we met in college and we were roommates, well, that was before I dropped out of college since my parents could no longer sponsor my education and they ordered me to stop, due to reasons best known to them. They claimed they had no money anymore but I knew that was all a lie, they just had other plans up their sleeves. Anne was not from a wealthy family but they were comfor

Missing? What do you mean she is missing?" Kelvin questioned."Have you gone nuts!? He said, angrily raising his voice, making the few patients that were present look at him in a weird way.He immediately realised and remembered that he was still in the hospital and so he held the phone away from his ear and quickly walked out. He found his way into the garden in the hospital premises but far away from the wards.As soon as he was away from the piercing eyes of the people around him, he continued his conversation on the phone."What nonsense are you saying? Are you saying you can't do a freaking minor job!?" Kelvin furiously asked."I'm sorry, sir. I don't know how it happened." Paul, one of Sorin's many guards, responded to his superior, Kelvin."How can you say you don't know how it happened? Where were you?" Kelvin asked him further."I was in the hospital, sir." Paul responded."So she disappeared or grew wings and flew away." Kelvin asked."You were supposed to keep an eye on her

John Richardson sat on the chair and stared at the large wall clock in his study.The study was a vast, elegant space with high ceilings, big windows, and furniture that was designed specifically for it. It had a large fireplace, beautiful chandeliers, and detailed mouldings. The walls were adorned with priceless artwork, antique maps, and rare books.At one end of the study, there was a well-stocked bar, complete with premium liquors, vintage wines, and rare whiskies, including the red wine belonging to the Zaveris company. Also, there was a humidor stocked with the finest, priciest and rarest cigars.And at the other end of the study, there was a private library, with shelves lined with leather-bound books and first editions.

The elevator was a few floors away from the ground floor when it stopped to pick up some other people and at that moment my heart began to beat faster than normal. I was scared that my cover would be blown and I might be caught by one of Sorin's guards since they always worked undercover and they were always anywhere he was. Since I had seen one of them upstairs, I knew that there would definitely be more of them around the hospital but I was hoping not to run into any one.As the doors opened, I pulled my hood over my head once again, while using my hand to hold it over my face to prevent my face from being seen. A few medical workers walked in and thankfully, they paid me no mind. They immediately continued gisting as soon as they got in and the doors closed. I guess they had been discussing right before they got in and so, decided to continue with their discussion like I was invisible."Jane, have you heard?" One of them, who I found out was Sarah, asked."Heard what?" Jane respon

Few Hours earlier at Daisy House Daisy Cole sat majestically in one of the chairs in her room while scrolling through her phone and snacking on some cookies and some red wine. The red wine was the one belonging to the Zaveris. She was one of the few people who could afford such exotic and expensive wine and it was the best wine, so why not?"Since Sorin is still angry and has refused to pick my calls, I might as well just chill and enjoy myself." She said to herself."I didn't really do anything wrong, did I?" She asked herself."I didn't …Whatever!" She answered herself."I'm sure he'll come around soon and will come back to me. After all, he is all mine." She said to herself once again and chuckled.She was still scrolling through her phone when one of her guards, Sonia, came and stood by her door."May I come in ma'am?" Sonia asked."Yeah." Daisy responded and Sonia smartly walked in."What is it? Is there anything I should know?" Daisy asked her."Yes ma'am." Sonia answered but w

Hearing "I'm sorry" from a doctor has to be anyone's worst nightmare, especially for someone whose loved one is in a critical condition. Most times, it could only mean one thing - "we tried our very best but we lost him or her." So immediately the Doctor said "I'm so sorry", we all had almost the same expressions, our mouths were wide open because we screamed "Nooooooo" in unison but in a turn of events, the doctor realized what was going on and was quick to salvage the situation. "Oh No. I didn't mean they are dead." He began and our eyes lightened up with hope."So, what are you saying, Doc?" Kelvin immediately asked him because Sorin was too shocked to speak."Exactly! Doctor, were you trying to scare us to death?" Daisy rudely said but the Doctor remained calm."Please talk to us Doctor." My mum said.The Doctor sighed before and continued talking."I'm sorry I gave you the wrong impression, I think my choice of words was wrong at the moment but you all didn't wait for me to fini

"Time? Time for what?" I asked the Doctor."It is time for your examination." He responded."Examination? What Examination? Am I writing an examination? Please, I know nothing about Medicine." I said with a confused look on my face.They all looked at each other's faces and giggled."Mrs Zaveri, you're not going to be writing any examinations. What I meant was that, it is now time for your medical examination to be carried out." The Doctor explained."Oh…." I said as I understood what he was saying. "But why? I'm not sick, I'm completely fine." I added."Well, you suffered a memory loss a few days ago and so, we need to check what could have caused it and make sure that you are a hundred percent fine now." The Doctor explained further."I did? I had no idea." I said, with my eyes widened in shock."Am I going to be fine?" I asked, concerned."Of course, you will." The Doctor assured me."Okay." I responded.The first Doctor signalled to the nurses and in no time they tried to help me

The Doctors rushed to the scene immediately they heard Kelvin's loud voice, and they immediately rushed Sorin into one of the VIP wards where he was instantly attended to. In no time, he regained consciousness and was stable but he was still told to remain in bed so as to rest.After he regained consciousness, the Doctors came out to a disturbed Kelvin, who had been pacing the whole time, looking agitated. Immediately Kelvin saw the Doctors walking out, he quickly asked,"Doctor? How is he doing? Is he fine? What went wrong? Was it an accident? Was it an attack?" He kept going on with the questions without giving room for any to be answered."Sir, Calm down. There is no problem at all. Just calm down." The Doctor finally spoke."But is he going to be okay?" He asked further."Oh, yes, he will. In fact, he has regained consciousness and he is sleeping at the moment. All he needs is adequate rest for now." The Doctor replied.Hearing the news, Kelvin's demeanor changed. He was no longer

Sorin swiftly flipped off the blanket that was used to cover his body in a flash and as he was about to stand up, he was pulled back by the drip line that was attached to his hand, which he had forgotten was still there.Before Kelvin could stop him, he yanked it off forcefully without looking back and began to walk hurriedly towards the door. As he held the handle and was about to turn the door knob, Kelvin caught him."Sir, they are fine. They are responding to treatment, they will be awake soon sir.Kelvin had been with Sorin for a very long time, almost all his life, so he immediately knew what Sorin was trying to do and where he was headed. He knew he was in a haste to check on his parents, who were still unconscious. He knew Sorin must have been thinking that something went wrong while he passed out, which was why he quickly stopped him before he left the room."Sir, you need rest as well. They will be fine and they will be awake in no time, very soon. Let's trust the Doctors."
