Caden's PovIt's been 2 days since Asher left. The security team had long been dismantled but Giovanna didn't leave. She stayed just like I knew she would. Grandma had been crying and fawning over me nonstop since I got here and I hate it. I know how emotional she can get and how it can make her fall sick so I try my best to comfort her.She'd make the chefs prepare my favourite dishes and try to paint with me but I couldn't do those things when he was here. It's been 2 days and his scent won't leave the house, won't leave my skin. Exactly 48 hours later, I fell sick. I don't know why but I just did. I couldn't breathe properly and I kept throwing up everything I did. I was burning up every time.I'd get fainting spells now and then and I was tired of it. I just wanted to get better but part of me said it was a stretch that Asher took part of me when he left and now, I can't get it back.I heaved a sigh as I looked the other way. The view of the garden from my bed looks pretty excep

Caden's PovYou know that feeling you get when you try your best to forget something but it keeps coming back? Yeah, that's exactly how I feel and it's frustrating.I thought that if I made an official statement that Asher and I were over, if I pushed myself into work, if I tried to workout more, that I'd be able to forget it. I couldn't and I hated myself for it. I just wished I could move on quickly but he just keeps showing up. When I saw him at the bar, two things were going to happen — either I would run to Asher and kiss him like I've wanted to for days or I would run away and keep avoiding him forever. I could've done things differently but the truth was I didn't want any interaction with him and I hated myself for it.I couldn't bring myself to hate him when I missed him so much but I couldn't be with him either. I was still scared. I still am.It's ironic how smooth the rest of my life was going even after our break-up. Eagle Eye was breaking ground in the tech field all ove

Caden’s PovMy chest tightened with each exhale and I clutched my shirt. I jumped out of the driver's seat and threw the key at Joakim who caught it just in time.“Are you alright, Caden?” He asked me with a look of concern in his voice.“No,” I'm pretty sure I was having a panic attack. “Call the doctor.”He rushed to get the home phone and dialled Dr. Angela.She picked up immediately. “Talk to me.”“Angela,” I slumped to the couch. “It's happening again.”“Was it another nightmare?” She asked curiously.“No…” I reached for the glass of water Joakim had passed to me. “I met him again. I wanted to … fuck… I miss him so much I can't breathe.”“You're going through a withdrawal phase, Caden. It's all natural to feel smothered. Can you count to ten for me?” She said in a professional, soothing voice.“T - ten…” The numbers came out in splutters but Angela didn't leave until I was calm again. Then she prescribed some pills for me and promised to call again. Joakim helped me to my room a

Caden's Pov“Is everything alright, Caden?” Gastby asked the moment we landed.I dragged my eyes from the phone and stared right at her. She watched me like she knew exactly what I was thinking but I didn't let her get too far. I put my phone away and faked a smile. “Not really. My FY page on Instagram is filled with lots of stuff about psychology. It's depressing.”The look on her face diffused to a smile and she gave me a light nudge. “Maybe, it's the universe's way of saying you should venture into it.”“Me, a psychologist?” I scoffed as we walked out of the jet. “If that were the case then I'll be Harley Quinn.”“The only thing left is to find your Joker.” she strolled my box in front of her.“Too bad he doesn't exist.” I said plainly and walked towards the SUV waiting for us.When we arrived at my apartment, I tossed my keys to the coffee table and pulled at my hair.Asher had moved on? But with whom? He left me. Why did he leave me? I took out my phone and pulled the New York

Caden / AsherCaden's Pov It's been two days and there's still no sign of Asher. I pulled my resources into looking for him — even hired a PI, called the Chief superintendent of police to look into him and even stalked his social media like a creep but none of them gave me any positive result. It's like Asher had vanished into thin air. Was he that desperate to get rid of me? I let out a soft groan and dragged my hand through my hair. “Where are you, baby?” My phone rang, distracting me. I reached for it without checking the caller ID and answered. “Hello?” “Hey, Caden.” It was low but it was still hoarse, almost sounding like a desperate plea.“Jeremy?” “Yeah. The one and only.” He gave a soft chuckle and sniffled. “Um… I just… I'm really sorry I didn't reach out so soon. Asher kinda threatened me not to come near you or he'd kill me.”My eyes widened. “Wait, Asher? When was that?” “It was days ago. At that parking lot after you left.” He explained. “Anyways, I heard he's dati
