HAZELI pulled the book closer and walked back toward the couch. As I sat down, I glanced at Axel. He was still working, with His head slightly lowered as he read through the documents in front of him, occasionally writing something down. He looked completely absorbed in his work.I opened the book again, and for a while, I was just passing through the pages, one after the other. And I guess, without any intention to, I found myself reading quietly. The words soon started making sense.Why? Because I had always been interested in something about knowing about the human body. Not how it works exactly, more like how to make it better, how to make everything better, take the pain away. That had always interested me. And before I knew it, I was completely absorbed in the pages.I know what you're thinking. Why wouldn't you want to be a doctor? For me, and in my experience, back then when I was young, yes, the doctors were good. You went to see a doctor, you told them and asked about the s

HAZELI looked down at the book again and then back at Axel's face, swallowing, realising something that made me feel powerful all of a sudden."Maybe I can go back," I said.Axel's expression softened."Don't maybe.""I'll try," I said instead "No." He shook his head. "There is no trying. Tell me you're going to do it. Tell me you're going to go after your dreams. Tell me you're finally ready to leave."I swallowed. I don't know why, but all of a sudden, I felt tears coming. I felt emotional and overwhelmed by everything. I swallowed it all down and released a breath.I wanted to believe what he said. "I want that too...... But Harris is probably still out there looking for me." I said. "I don't have the funds to go to school. I don't even know where to start.""Don't worry about Harris," he said. "If you want to, you will. I'll help you."I looked at him. "I don't want to owe you more than I already have," I began.But he stopped me as he finally... finally took his hand from the

HAZEL On my way back from my walk in the garden, I saw a shadow standing by the window, watching. But when I looked closer, the shadow had disappeared.I frowned as I kept on walking, still watching the window "Hazel."A voice called. I turned towards the sound of my name and saw Angela standing several feet in front of me, her hands folded out in front of her as she watched me with a big smile.I was so distracted by the window that I didn't see her moving toward me."Oh, Angela," I said when I recognised her. "Am I late for breakfast?" I asked, smiling back.She shook her head."No, I just came to tell you that breakfast was ready.""Okay....." I replied, watching her watch me. "... but why are you looking at me like that?" I asked."Because I am happy," she began. " I came because I wanted to see you outside. Just wanted to make sure that you actually came outside, and see the look on your face."I laughed softly."I told you I was going for a walk.""Yes, but you have been sayin

HAZELWe walked together inside the house and went straight into the dining room to have breakfast together. We sat down, and of course, Angela served, giving me a look when I tried helping. We started having breakfast. Then Axel walked in.“Good morning,” he said without missing a beat, as if this was a normal morning and he was used to finding us here.He looked good this morning. He was not smiling, not really, but I felt it. He touched my shoulder as he passed, and it sent shocks all over my body. When he sat down, I was already watching him. He watched me too as he sat down, and we smiled at each other.Angela immediately started getting up.“No, it’s okay, Angela. I’ve got it,” he said. “Enjoy your breakfast.”But then, of course, this was Angela.“No, sir. Just let me do my job.”Axel looked at me with a raised eyebrow, and I couldn’t help chuckling. It was something so normal, something you wouldn’t expect from Axel, the Don of the Moretti famiglia.Angela prepared Axel’s bre

HAZELAngela kept scrolling. Then she stopped.“Okay.”“What?” I immediately asked.She looked at me.“This school is still accepting applications.”My mouth fell open.“Seriously? This one?”“Yes.”“When?”She checked the date.“The deadline hasn't passed.”I covered my mouth.“Oh, my God. I can't believe it.”Angela laughed.“Again?”“I can't help it.”She turned the laptop toward me.“There is an application button.”I stared at it..... Apply Now, the words read. Two simple words, but they made my heart pound.“Should I click it?” I asked.Angela looked at me.“Do you want to?”I looked at the screen, then at her.“Yes.”"Then do the honours," she said, pulling back. I went forward and clicked. It was one simple, normal thing, but it symbolised the beginning of everything.The application page opened, and my hands suddenly became cold. There was a box asking for my full name. I didn't make a move for a few seconds.Angela looked at me.“Go ahead.”I nodded as I typed my name, then
