The Aftermath

# Kaira's POV The silence stretched between us and then..."She's telling the truth," The other officer stepped forward, blocking our path."It was self-defense. And we were supposed to help, not add to the fire," he added in a calm voice."Out of my way." "Sir,..." "Move!" He retorted, his face was overwhelmed with fury.His glare felt sharp enough to cut through my ribs, but I didn’t care. I shot mine back at him, unable to hold in the anger any longer; it was already brewing across my features."He’s losing blood, sir," the other officer said, glancing at Tony’s bleeding arm.He was ignored, "Sir..." He added, eagerly.I wouldn't call him sir anymore if I were me; he doesn't deserve it.The officer shut his eyes and rubbed at his temple with a slow, weary motion."I will... take the responsibility." He said in a low tone, like someone unsure of his decision.Jason's brows rose in mild amusement."What? Are you..." "I said, I. Would. Take. The. Full. Responsibility!" he snapped,

Tony's Worry

# Kaira's POVWe arrived shortly at the supposed clinic."I thought it was supposed to be a hospital?" Camille said, gesturing toward the name displayed across the entrance."Hmm. It is... a pharmacy." Jason said, nonchalantly.My head tilted upward, "BARI Pharmacy." I read the displayed name.Tony slightly raised his head to also look, his face twisted in discomfort."Let's get inside," I said, and we proceeded to the door.Camille pushed open the heavy door for us to enter."Thank you," Tony said, his voice hoarse.A security man sat on a chair at the doorstep. He stood immediately as he saw us; it was as if he was dozing off while on duty.And started gesturing quickly, "Good day sir/ma. This way, if you are here for a medicine prescription." He pointed toward a room, on the door 'Your trusted pharmacist D' was placed on display.He turned toward us now. "And if you are,..." "Holly... shit." He paused mid-talking, surprised as he saw Tony's cut and the blood dripping to the floor.

A Slip of the Towel

# Kaira's POVSoon, I got home. The sun was already setting as it neared 6 PM. The car ride was smooth, but I couldn’t shake off the thought of Tony... that sudden look on his face, and the fact that he was urging me to leave first. My mind kept wandering into dark, negative thoughts"It’s not related to that gunfire at the market, right?" I whispered, rubbing my temple nervously.Tony had denied it was him back then, but… why couldn’t I believe his words?The doubt still lingered, and I couldn’t shake the feeling that it had something to do with what he saw at the clinic.But what exactly had he seen there that made him so secretive?Soon, I reached the doorstep of my apartment.I closed my eyes tightly, drew in a shaky breath, then let it out in exhaustion before knocking on the door.Silence answered me."Is he sleeping? or…" I mumbled, but a yawn cut me off."I’m so tired," I said after yawning, my face twisting in exhaustion.My eyes started to close on their own, and sleep pulle
