NICHOLAS. Fear. The one feeling that's present in every human. Even in a monster. It was present in my dad shortly before he died, I saw it in mom's eyes when she got admitted into a mental home. It was the same feeling present that now engulfed my little Ms. Sunshine, Madelyn. After today's meeting, I suspected there was something going on with Cara. For once, I read a person wrongly. I initially thought she was backing out, or perhaps she had gotten tired of her father and I, but, it was something else. Turned out Cara wanted revenge on her sister more than I wanted revenge on her family. Her eyes shone with hate when she told me how much she wanted Madelyn dead. Dead? If I had been the same old person who thought taking revenge revolves around killing a person, I'd have gladly indulged her. But no, I want Madelyn Black to pay twice. She can't do that when she's dead. “ What do you want, Xavier? Or should I say, CEO Nicholas Brightman..” Natasha s

JASON Unsettled, I paced around the waiting room just of outside Madelyn's ward. There was this guilt that filled me. Perhaps it was her fear for me at that moment that brought about this. I thought of many ways where I could have been the cause of her misfortune. At the end, none of them seemed logical, but I was still going to take the blame anyway. This happened because of me. “ Calm down, Jason. The doctor will be out in no time and then we can find out what's wrong with her.” Grandma held my hand and drew me in for a hug. I was scared. Terrified. What if something bad happens? I would livd with the guilt of it till the end of the world. “ Grandma, I.. I hurt her. If I had waited till tomorrow before we talked about her meeting with Nicholas, she would still be very much okay...” The doors flew open with a strong gust of air, and our attention went to the male doctor. It was a critical condition, and I had no choice but to let a male examine her. Madelyn was

NATASHA'S MOM “ Have you been to the graveyard to see Caspian?” The family doctor Williams, who hasn't contacted me in a while just called and those were the first words he said. “ No, Doctor Williams. I'm about to, why do you ask?” I wasn't only sinning against Heaven, but against Caspian. I wasn't planning on going tonight, but I just couldn't spit out to a stranger that I wasn't going to be at my husband's grave tonight. “ Surprisingly, Black's body has been found. In place of the shallow unmarked grave they had dug in remembrance of him, stands an actual tombstone with his name and date of death on it. His body was never missing, someone hid it.” The phone dropped from my hand to the floor. I was left speechless. Who would have kept Black's body for this long? “ Mrs. Caspian? Are you there? I'm at the Black's family grave yard, you can come over.” I heard a beep indicating the call has been ended. It was so hard to figure this out. I'd

JASON The shower ran freely and the water coursed down my body. I heard a knock on our door and listened to my wife's footsteps towards the direction of the door. “ He's in the shower, but the moment he's out, he will come see you.” She knocked on the bathroom door and announced, “ Grandma wants you downstairs when you are done, she says it's important.” “ Alright, I'll be out in no time.”Several minutes later and a towel hung around my neck as I tried to dry my wet hair. “ We are not even, Jason.” Oh, we are. We are. “ You are wrong, we are. Don't worry, I will come straight to you after the discussion with Grandma. I wouldn't want my pregnant wife to feel sex starved.” “ Whatever.” Grandma sat behind the TV in the living room, with her hands fidgeting. She held my mobile phone tightly, and I caught the look of fear I hadn't seen in years. The last time I saw her this petrified, was the night Dad died. “ Grandma, you called for me..”But,

NATASHA'S MOM I hurried home after I saw Grandma Lorelei leave. I was heartbroken. It's clear she was the only one that visited yesterday. Why couldn't anyone find a clue, a hint, anything at all? “ Argh!!” I yelled, almost ripping my lungs out as I threw something to the wall. I have been getting more fiery these days and I threw objects more frequently too. If I continue at this rate, I'd have broken almost every object in the house. “ Why have you been so angry the past few days, mom?” My daughter asked from the dinning table. I didn't even notice she was there all throughout. It was just 8am. She was not yet dressed, so I guess she's taking the day off. I had a quick flashback about how last night ended and I felt nothing but guilt for the way I treated her. It was not the best thing to do. I know that too well but I couldn't keep it in no more. She needed to hear a few unkind words, maybe it might help faster. She was too self-centered, and cared abou
