Lake:"Jade, don't worry about that. The nurses will..." "Nonsense, Lake! I can't leave your welfare to the nurses. I have been doing it for two weeks since you couldn't see me. It doesn't matter that I continue now that you can." Jade replied stubbornly, picking the plates from the tray in front of me and setting it on the cabinet. She pulled out a towel from her back pocket and gently wiped my lips with it. She was wrong about one thing though. I had seen her take care of me, time and time again. The only difference between now and then was that I did not have the power or strength to stop her then, but I did now. She was the one who led me to bath, who laundered and pressed my clothes, she supervised my meals and even my glucose injections. She sat by me on late nights and early mornings. When I so much as moved a finger, she would rush to me and call the doctor. When I sneezed, she would rush to me and call the doctor. She had been nothing but extremely nice to me in the past f

Jojo: On the twelfth day of the tenth month ten years ago, my sister was born. On this day ten years ago, I watched Valerie in her baby court. Her eyes were yet to open and she was so small and fragile that I was scared to lay a finger on her. My mother turned over to her with a smile on her face. She looked at me and asked, "she's beautiful, isn't she?" I nodded my head, eager to have her in my arms, so close to my chest. "She is mum." One decade later, my sister was still the best thing that had ever happened to me. She was still my rock, my support, the only one whom I knew I could lean on. She was my everything. We had been through small, big, thick, and thin together. Even on days when I did not deserve to be called her older sister, she loved and cared for me nevertheless. She was a diamond, a rare gem and I was really lucky to have someone like her in my life. So many times, I had sat down to ask myself what life would have been like if Valerie had not been in it. The answ

Lake: A part of my "after discharge" therapy was the regular morning workouts. Yes, this had always been a part of my life. But I was not allowed to lift weights on my shoulders, or do any form of heavy duty workouts, at least not for another three months. After my regular morning workouts, I took it as a point of duty to get myself fresh lemon tea and ginger bread every morning - yes, even though I did not know two shits about cooking - because having the maids do everything for me, especially when I was recovering, made me feel like a sore loser. I was in the kitchen, placing three slices of ginger bread into my ceramic saucer when the kitchen door opened and someone stepped it. I turned my hot tea with my tea spoon and brought it up to my lips, before my eyes wandered to the door, only to see Kenji standing in front of it. He had both a shocked and amused look on his face. Both of his looks caused me to cork my left brow in a silent query. He bursted into a mock round of applaus

Lake: "I know for a fact that I am not the only one seeing this. I do not want to believe that my eyes have developed some form of illness that makes one woman out if three look...pregnant. Or am I the only one who is surprised?" Kenji spoke beside me. And it only made matters worse. I was really hoping the problem was with my eyes, I was really praying that my eyes were deceiving me and I had to visit a doctor to get them checked. "No." It was the only word I managed to mutter. Seeing Jojo standing there, underneath the red evening sun, the breeze blowing past the soft features of her beautiful oval face and causing her to blink rapidly, I knew that I had never been more confused in my life. I could not bring myself to close my mouth which remained ajar in shock, neither could I bring myself to lean back into my seat or to form a proper reason for the sight I was currently looking at. Jojo was pregnant, and it was very visible, almost as though she could give birth at any minute.

"You would..." She leaned out of the door and held her chest tight. Emerald corked her left brow at the young girl, before tearing her eyes away from her and returning her gaze to the pan. "You would never believe who I just saw." The girl took some time off her speech to cough. Emerald sighed and cast her a short glance. "Not if you tell me my dead husband is here to say hello." She held her spatula in her right hand and turned off the fire with the left. "Mrs Smith, believe me. You would never guess what just happened, all the way from freaking Rush pack!" Okay, now she was starting to get scared. She moved closer to Mel, still narrowing her eyes on the younger girl. "Mel, is something wrong? Did something happen? Is Jojo okay? Does she need help? Did something happen to her?" Emerald turn to the clock in the kitchen. It was already almost three pm, the girl was supposed to be back in the restaurant by now. "Jojo is supposed to be back by now. If something has happened to her.
