ALEXANDERMy steps came to a halt right in front of the car door. I drew in a long breath, letting it fill my lungs before slowly releasing it. That evening felt heavier than usual. Behind me, the company building still stood tall and imposing glass walls reflecting the fading sunlight, traffic flowing endlessly, people moving about as if nothing in the world had changed.But I knew better. Beneath that polished surface… cracks had already begun to form. I slipped into the car without a word. The door shut firmly, sealing me inside a silence that felt almost suffocating, muting the chaos outside.“Straight home, sir?” the driver asked from the front.“Yes. Just take me home. I’ve got a headache.”He nodded, and the car pulled away. I leaned back against the seat, loosening the tension in my neck. My hand rose instinctively, pressing against my temple as I tried to ease the dull throb. The reports from earlier that afternoon echoed relentlessly in my mind. Declining numbers. Delayed pr

EMELYEvening slowly settled in, wrapping the room in a quiet hush. In my hands, my phone screen lit up with a face I had missed more than I could put into words.“Where’s Chloe? Can you show her to me?”“Chloe’s asleep, ma’am,” Amira said softly from the other side of the screen, lowering her voice so she wouldn’t wake her.I managed a small smile, though I couldn’t quite hide the disappointment in my eyes.“That’s too bad…” I murmured. “I really wanted to see her.”Amira nodded gently. Then she shifted the camera, and there she was—A small figure lying peacefully on the bed, the blanket pulled up to her chest, her face calm and untroubled. My chest tightened instantly.“Does she still kick off her blanket?” I asked, trying to sound light.Amira smiled. “She does, ma’am. I’ve already fixed it twice tonight.”A soft laugh slipped from my lips—brief, but enough to warm something inside me.“She’s been like that since she was little…”For a few seconds, I just stared at the screen. At

EMELYThe voice from the recording still echoed in my ears. I didn’t even realize when the tears started falling. All I knew was that my vision had blurred, and the hand holding the phone was trembling uncontrollably.“Emely…?” Lisa’s voice came from beside me, laced with panic. “What is it now?”I couldn’t answer right away. My chest rose and fell unevenly, like I had just lost something incredibly important or maybe… I was in the middle of losing it.“Mom…” My voice broke. “This… this isn’t what we thought it was…”Lisa immediately dropped to her knees beside my wheelchair, both hands gripping mine tightly. “Calm down. Take a breath… slowly. What happened?”I shook my head, tears streaming faster. My fingers tightened around the phone.“I… I just listened to a recording from Steven’s phone,” I stammered. “And… everything is there. Everything is clear.”“A recording?” Lisa repeated softly, her brows knitting together. “What recording, Emely?”I nodded, my lips trembling before I forc

EMELY“Prepare the defibrillator!” one of the doctors ordered.I froze.My hand was still wrapped around Steven’s, as if it were the only thing keeping me from falling apart. But within seconds, a nurse rushed over and gently—yet firmly—pried my fingers away from his.“Ma’am, please step back!” she said quickly.“No… wait—” My voice trembled.But I was already being pulled away. Lisa pushed my wheelchair back, distancing me from the bed. And then everything happened so fast. A doctor climbed onto the side of the bed, placing both hands on Steven’s chest.“Start compressions!”The first push. The second. The third. Steven’s body jolted slightly with each forceful press. I stared, unblinking.“Count!” another nurse shouted.“One, two, three, four—”Their voices overlapped, urgent and sharp. The monitor beside the bed continued its long, terrifying tone.“Charge, 200 joules!”Another nurse prepared the defibrillator, her movements quick and practiced—like this was just another routine.“

EMELY“Steven…” My voice broke as I wrapped my arms around him.Everything I’d been holding back finally collapsed. My tears came all at once—deeper, freer. I clung to him tightly, as if I needed to make sure he was real… that he was truly back, not just some fragile dream that would vanish the moment I woke up.“Oh my God… you’re really awake…” I whispered between sobs. “Thank you… for finally hearing me.”My chest felt unbearably full relief, fear, gratitude all tangled together in ways I couldn’t even begin to explain. I didn’t care who else was in the room. All I cared about was Steven. I held him tighter.“Don’t ever do this again… don’t ever scare me like this again…” My voice trembled. “Do you hear me?”But a few seconds later—Something felt off. Steven’s body tensed slightly. His breathing shifted. And then, faintly, I heard a strained sound.“Uh… i-it hurts…”I froze instantly. My grip loosened on reflex as I pulled back, panic flashing across my face.“Steven?” I called qui
