One thing is to be released and the other is to be free. Charles Hills has been released from the cell by the man he hurt so badly. But he is not yet free.He still leaves with the torture that comes from within. He was freed from the cell but he is not yet freed.“Why did I do it? I shouldn’t have done it,” he kept pondering when the sun is sinking low.He often talks to himself and is always locked up in a room and has practically refused to come out nor speak to anyone.“Charles come out please, your friends are here,” his father would call him out but he won’t even reply let alone open the door.Mr. Hills was the one that shoulders the pains all by himself. Has Charles forgotten all he went through to get him freed from Quincy’s cell.“Vincent please you need to come over and help me talk to your friend. He is going insane. Locked up in a room and talking to himself,” Mr. Hills spoke to Vincent over the phone. The old man was gradually losing it himself.“Give him time, he get over
Life goes on, business booms like every other days. It was almost like everything has gotten back to normal.Quincy Stone goes to work every day and returns to his lovely beautiful pregnant wife. “The baby will look like you,” he tells her very night, each time he says it, she smiles. It gladdens her heart. She is currently living the dream.A fairly fantasy life has become her reality with her prince charming by her side always to cheer her up. Even the baby in her womb could feel the love that blooms.But just like everyone else, Khloe could not imprison her mind. She kept thinking and getting worked up over her sister Deborah’s situation.“Maybe I should pay her a visit at the hospital, it could help ease off the burden in my heart,” she thought. “That visit should wait till after your pregnancy,” her husband’s voce will ring in her head, as the possible reply she would get from him, if she dares to bring up the topic to him.Sleepless nights still ain’t good for her as well so
The journey back home was nothing close to fun. It seems the power couple are getting it hot, gradually falling apart with constant nagging and yelling at each other.This is not the love Quincy Stone promised his wife. This is not in any way close to the love he wants his Khloe to experience. After his return and recovery from the mysterious sickness that nearly took his life, Quincy Stone vowed not to ever make his woman angry, he vowed to ensure her happiness and protect her from every harm. He should be her shield and armor against the cruel people of this world.But it seems like he is failing or he has already failed. While driving, he gave her a glance and could perceive the pains she goes through by mere looking at her. He pulled over and stopped the car.Typical Khloe would have queried that act but she was mute, uttered no single word.Quincy took her hands, fondling them he said, “I love you.”Those words were the only words that could come out of his mouth at the moment.
“Here to see Deborah Walter,” he told the first nurse he placed is eyes on at the entrance door.“Good afternoon,” she greeted. “But her room is out of bound,” she added.That was expected considering this is a hospital but then I need to see her. “When will visitors be allowed?” he asked.But the nurse had already left, she was on duty. George drove straight to the hospital, he was tempted to stop at the gift shop to get some nice life flowers for Deborah but the fire to see her surpasses the need for a flower. Deborah got her groove back.Knowing she is here and receiving treatment was enough harmony, she was denied treatment by Quincy Stone, George could still remember.He ran into another nurse and got the same reply that her room was out of bound. “Till when please?” he asked and unlike the previous nurse this one was patience enough.“Drop your contact, I will hint you,” she said. Deborah’s doctor didn’t say when she can attend to visitors.Contacts were exchanged and George lef
So excited but at the same time very nervous. His expectations are very high with little faith. Whatever that kept George glued to Debora must be a miracle from heaven.Just like Deborah would always say “George was sent from heaven,” that’s an undeniable truth.The nurse that promised to put a call kept her promise. She called the night before. George had been expecting her call ever since that day, the joy in his heart has no bound the moment he glanced at his phone when it rang, “Oh nurse Evelyn.”And then today, the very day to meet Deborah. George Globe dressed in a very simple jean and a bogus polo. Slide into his sneakers and dropped a cap on his head. “Ready to go,” he said throwing a smile at his other image in the standing mirror.He grabbed the rose flower he bought and dashed to Lucas Hospital.Deborah already gave out orders to the nurses on duty that she does not need visitors. “All of them comes here to make mockery of me,” that’s the rhyme she kept on singing to hersel
“I am very sorry,” Nurse Evelyn apologized to Deborah. She immediately assumed it to be her fault. Deborah made it clear early enough that she didn’t want to visit and now.“Oh Nurse Evelyn knock it off, no need to apologize,” Deborah said. “Come in and please do make yourself comfortable,” she beckoned on George, he was right there admiring Deborah’s beauty.She has changed a lot after her sickness and added so much more skin.“Oh sure,” he replied and pulled a chair and sat down comfortably. He was shy about the roses he brought along, not knowing if he should hand it over to her already or wait till Evelyn leaves but, would she leave any time soon?Evelyn could sense the tense between the two love birds, even though she has no clue.“I will have to leave, she stood up and announced. Evelyn left immediately.The two love birds were speechless for minutes, different thoughts pondering in their heads.“Missed you Deb,” George finally spoke. He had mixed emotions and was confused about
Her stomach grumbled, “I haven’t had food for hours now,” she tossed in the conversation she wished to be discussed. The last incident that paved way for her sickness was brought upon her by Khloe and it was connected to her past life styles, the crimes she committed in the past.And Vincent is back to rekindle the past now that she was almost getting past it. “Nemesis or what,” she said under her breath.“You can bring up the food topic, but that still won’t stop the nemesis about to hit you,” that’s Vincent speaking at a very pitch like he was already in a battle“This is a hospital and there are roles. So bring the voice down or you exit entirely from this room or even from the surface of the earth,” George fired.That was the height of it for him. A stranger coming to bash the woman he cherishes right before him, he just wouldn’t let it pass.George was a very easy going and soft man but generally no man can stand his woman been bashed by a fellow man, except a weakling.“The own
The doctors informed Quincy that Deborah is now fit and ready to be discharged from the hospital. He had wanted to hold her back a little longer but what would be the end benefit? Absolutely nothing.“Let her go,” he told the doctor that put the call through.Khloe is heavily pregnant at this point and he tried so hard to control the effects of the random deaths that occurred in the family, so it doesn’t affect her nor the baby in her womb.‘Baby shower?” he asked his wife Khloe, he was willing and eager to do anything to see the sweet smile on his wife’s face but only time could heal some wounds most especially the wounds of the heart.“Baby shower with no family member,” she snorted.That hit real hard. They currently have no family members from both ends.They embarked on this journey called marriage with lots of extended family members but just in a twinkle of an eye, most of the family members went to the underworld, leaving them as just a nuclear family.“The baby deserves all th
