He closed his eyes, savoring the memories of their day together, the shared stories, the hearty laughter, the simple joy of being in each other's company filled him with warmth and happiness.Since her return, his life has been filled with joy and fun. They may not see each other as often as they'd like, but whenever they did, it was as if no time had passed at all.

It was morning and Mello just finished dressing.As Mello descended the stairs, his steps echoed through the quiet house. The morning light filtered in through the windows, matching his mood. He glanced around, expecting to see Deya bustling about the kitchen, but she was nowhere to be found.With a furrowed brow, Mello made his way to the table, where last night's dinner still sat untouched. He sighed, realizing he had forgotten to eat the food before retiring to bed. It was a careless oversight, one that he knew would upset Deya.As he stared at the dishes, guilt gnawed at him. Deya had always been there, faithfully watching him off to work each morning, despite his occasional forgetfulness or thoughtlessness. He knew she took pride in her cooking, and seeing her efforts go unappreciated must have hurt."Morning, Deya?" Mello called out, his voice tinged with concern as he searched the house for any sign of her. But the only response was the soft hum of the refrigerator.As Mello wa

Ana thought for a while, her mind wandering to Mello's maid, Deya.She hastily turned to Mello." Was it Deya, answer me!" She shouted, her pain booming in her voice.Her fists were clenched at her sides as she stared hard at Mello.Mello shook his head slowly, trying to remember.His memories flashing before him like the scattered pieces of a puzzleHe was sure, he never ate her food not more than twice.So she can't be the one.Ana's eyes narrowed, her gaze piercing through Mello's confused face. She could sense his hesitation, his struggle to piece together his thoughts and patiently calmed the anger boiling inside of her.She won't allow whoever did this go unpunished.Mello wondered for a moment.His mind went to Kelan and their eyes met.Most of what he ate, he was the one who got it for him and he clearly recollected Kelan was the one who gave him the coffee he drank last.Kelan, understanding the piercing guilty gaze, instantly went down on his knees."

( Ashley Health Center)Los Angeles branch.Kelan walked back into Mello's ward with a determined stride, his mind already spinning with the piercing eyes that surrounded him. As he approached Mello's bedside, he found Ana seated beside him, her face lined with dried up tears.Taking a seat beside her, Kelan glanced at the monitors, the rhythmic beeping providing a strange sort of comfort in the uncomfortable situation. He reached out and gently placed his hand on Ana's hand and she looked his way." It'll be fine, I promise " he assured her but her blank expression did nothing to assure his doubts and he slowly withdrew his hand.How had it come to this?
