When we arrived at my dad’s company, I was so tensed. I was scared of facing Uncle Phillip after all these years, but most of all, I was raged with anger.He was involved in what happened to my family, but yet he lived a comfortable life while I suffered.“Hey, are you okay?” I turned when I heard Eric's voice behind me.“Yeah, I'm good. Are the reporters ready?”“Yes, we just need to wait for Jess to give us an entirely permit."“Okay, I can do this,” I said to myself as I kept taking a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves down.“Hey, relax; you look so tensed.” Eric said, holding my hand in his. I looked up at him and found him staring at me with nothing but concern in his eyes.“I just don't know how to face him. It has already been eleven years, but it still feels like it all happened yesterday.”“I know it's difficult, but I want you to know that I will always be by your side.” He said, pressing a kiss on my cheeks. I smiled at him as I stepped into his arms, lovin' the warmth I

She was wearing my oversized shirt, her hair dripping wet and tangled from the shower. The fabric clung to her curves, accentuating her feminine form. Her eyes sparkled as she gazed up at me, a hint of mischief dancing in their depths.She padded softly across the floor, her feet bare and her movements graceful, as if she were gliding towards me. I couldn't help but be drawn to her, my heart racing with anticipation. I set my laptop and glasses aside, watching her every moment.As she moved closer, I could see the faint outline of her legs beneath the shirt and the way the fabric hugged her hips. Her hair dripped water onto the floor, creating a tiny puddle that reflected the light. She didn't seem to notice, her eyes fixed on mine with a playful intensity.I felt my pulse quicken as she drew nearer, the air between us electric with tension. The shirt was unbuttoned just enough to reveal a hint of her chest, and I found myself wondering what lay beneath. She stopped in front of me as

I woke to find myself in my room. I was confused and a little scared when I remembered what I saw in the bathroom. I panicked as I pushed myself up into a sitting position. My body ached all over.I was surprised to find Jess sleeping beside me. Thank goodness she was okay.“Jess,” I called out, shaking her awake slightly.“Lilly, you’re up,” she said. I could see how worried she was.“What happened?”“I found you and Eric passed out in the bathroom.”“Eric! What about Eric? Is he okay? Was he taken to the hospital?”“Hospital? What do you mean?” Jess asked, confused.“He was massively bleeding when I saw him passed out in the bathroom.”“What? He was bleeding, but his wound was just a cut. It wasn’t that much.” The expression on Jess's face was that of someone curious about something.I was surprised because I knew what I saw. Or was I hallucinating? No, this doesn’t make any sense. I know what I saw.“Lilly, are you sure you’re okay?” Jess asked.“Yeah, I'm fine. What time is it?”“

“Alex, where are you going?” My voice carried a sharp edge as I watched him, fully dressed and ready to leave, leaving me behind without a second thought.“To hook up with some girls,” he replied, a teasing smile tugging at his lips.I marched up to him, planting myself firmly in front of him, our faces mere inches apart. “You wish,” I said coolly, spinning around and heading back to the couch. I picked up my phone, pretending to be engrossed, even as irritation bubbled under my skin.“You don't believe me, do you?” he asked, amusement lacing his tone.“Nope, not one bit.” My gaze didn’t leave my phone.“Do you actually think I can’t get any girl I want straight into bed?” His voice grew more playful, daring me to rise to the bait.“Do you actually think any girl in her right mind would want anything to do with you?” I shot back, smirking as I caught the widening grin on his face.He approached me with deliberate steps, bending over until his hands rested on the couch on either side o

I sat across from Alex as Dr. David and Eric appeared to be in a deep conversation. Alex seemed lost in his own thoughts, his expression heavy with worry and exhaustion. He looked so disheveled, like he was carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. Unable to bear seeing him like that, I instinctively reached out, my fingers brushing through his unruly hair.“We’re going to wait by her bedside until she wakes up,” I said softly, my voice breaking the tense silence. “And if she sees you like this, it might cause her to pass out again.”His questioning eyes locked onto mine, silently asking for clarification. I offered a small, reassuring smile.“Why don’t you go up to the third floor and take a bath? Change out of these clothes. You can borrow some of Eric’s—it’ll help. If Jess wakes up and sees her own blood on you, she might really freak out.” My words were gentle, but I hoped they carried enough conviction to make him act.For a moment, he just stared at me, his face a mask
