Chapter five

California was a town that never ceased to amaze Jane. One minute it's pouring rain, the next, the sun is threatening to peel your skin off. Today's weather was a combination of both. She honked at the car in front of her. Jane had always hated the way people took the road to be their home. Driving so slow as if they didn't have a where to be. She finally maneuvered the crazy road users and got to the hospital in one piece.

"Hello, I'm looking for a patient that was admitted here in the morning. Her name is Lindsey." Jane said to a sad-eyed woman in her mid thirties. The kind nurse that attended to her in the morning was no where to be found so Jane had to make inquiries to find out where the girl was.

"And how are you related to the girl?" She didn't only look sad. She sounded it too. It made Jane wonder what such a person was doing in the hospital. She is used to nurses being mean and rude but she has never come across a sad one before.

"Just a concerned friend."

    When Jake looked back, Sasha had moved to the counter to place her order. She didn't even say anything about the coffee that he spilt on her. She couldn't believe that she would still be that upset with him, even though what he did was unthinkable. Jake sighed and walked back to meet her."Sasha?" He called her name and watched as she groaned before turning her head to answer him. "What do you want Jake?" She asked."Look I know you are still upset but at least, let me pay for the cloth so that I don't have to add that to the number of reasons for you hating me." "I can take care of the clothe. Trust me, I do not need your help." She said and went back to waiting for her order."Yes, I know that you don't need my help but come on. I want to do this." "It's not the first thing you have wanted to do but you were not able to. So just let it be , Jake. Really, I'm good." It was a fruitless conversation but Jake was adamant. He had already done so many things wrongly with her. He didn'

    "Can I have your card now?" Jake asked when Sasha voice seemed to have failed her. He could notice that she wasn't herself. So many things had changed and some of them were noticeable. Like her pattern of breathing or the dilation of her eyes or the way she staggered when he moved away. All these led him to one conclusion. She was still in love with him. That conclusion made Jake to smile."Why are you smiling?" Sasha wished she could wipe such a smirk away from his face. It was his fault that he still had so an impact on her. And she hated it the most because she knew that he knew about it. What could be worse than that? She had tried so hard to be immune to him but she couldn't. She had tried so hard to not allow anything about him affect her but every night before she slept she found herself going through the Cash page to catch a glimpse of his life. She knew about the kidnapping, knew about the court case. She was even there when he was called out for questioning. She followed hi

    Chris walked into Sasha's office and immediately noticed her sad countenance and he needed no soothsayer to tell him that something was wrong."Sasha, what's the problem?" He asked and took a seat without being asked to. But his urgent need to speak to Sasha was not enough for Sasha to snap out of her thoughts about Jake Swanson. She loved how much he was grown. She loved how much his bodily features improved. She could see him sprouting muscles that were not present the last time they met.And the way he spoke. It felt like honey and milk were sipping out of his mouth. It sounded so good and so perfect, it was hard to believe that he wasn't sent just to torture her."Sasha!" Chris called again and this time, he snapped a finger in front of her face. This jolted Sasha back to reality and she was surprised to see Chris sitting in her office. "Chris, what are you doing here?" She asked surprised."No Sasha, the real question is what in the world were you thinking about? You totally shu

    "Are you even listening to me at all?" Chris asked and Sasha blinked her eye and nodded her head. Words suddenly became too heavy for her to speak and so she shut her mouth and allowed her body language to do the talking. She knew that soon, he would want to hear her voice. She couldn't totally refrain from talking and that was the sad part. "Chris, trust me. I am perfectly okay. Work is just stressing me out and I need to breathe." "Is that all?" He asked, skeptically. "Yes. I am fine," she said but she also knew that Chris didn't believe her. She couldn't blame him though. She didn't believe herself either. She wasn't fine and she doubted if she would be okay anytime soon."Okay. If you insist. Anyways, I wanted to know what you are doing for lunch. I wanted us to go out and get something to eat together." Everyday Chris always took her out for lunch. It was becoming a norm and she grew tired of normality. She wanted something new and exciting. Unfortunately, Chris couldn't give

    "Go on, spill it!" Cassidy said immediately Chris left the room."Spill what?" Sasha pretended like she didn't know what she was talking about and went back to her work."Oh do not even pretend with me. I saw you heave a sigh of relief after Chris walked out of the room. What happened? Did you guys fight?" She asked."No, Cassidy. We didn't fight," Sasha said and silence fell in the room."So what the fuck happened?!" Cassidy asked again when she wasn't saying anything. "Look, nothing happened okay. I just turned down his offer for lunch because I want to have lunch with you instead and that is what is pissing him off." "Well, it's normal for him to pissed off because of this but it's not normal for you to turn down lunch with him. Tell me, what's happening?" She asked. "What makes you think that anything is happening?" "Because even on days when you do not want to, you always enjoy a nice and romantic lunch date with Chris. You have never said no before, so what is going on?" "I

  • Son In-law Revenge   What She Would Do

    "What the actual fuck? He poured coffee on you and he didn't do anything about it?" Cassidy reacted exactly how Sasha had expected her to. "Will you calm down? He didn't pour coffee on me. He spilled coffee on me and after that, he asked to pay for my bills but I rejected the offer." "Why the hell would you reject the offer?" Cassidy asked and Sasha sighed. It was impossible to have a very decent conversation with her when all she wanted to do was judge based on her emotions."If you would allow me to talk maybe you will know what happened." "Okay, fine." She raised her hand in surrender. "Say what you want to say." And she waited for her to talk."Okay. Look, I rejected the offer because I know Jake very well. He wants to use this as an opportunity to come back into my life and I won't let him. I have spent so long missing him and I know that if I allow myself to be back with him, I will never be free from this love." It felt good to finally admit the true feelings to herself that

    Sasha looked confused. She had never thought this day would come when she would have to face the ghost of Jake Swanson again. She had gotten used to the man haunting her in her dreams and she was even close to getting used to seeing his face whenever Chris attempted to make love to her. She was fine with it, she was okay with not having to do too much or fight her demons in reality. But now they were right in her face. She had stood next to him and all she could think about was how beautiful he looked. Time apart from her did not hurt him in anyway. He had even improved more than she had imagined. Not that she wanted him to fail but the change was quite glaring and she never really loved lights blinding her eyes. "Sasha?" She heard a faint voice call out to her but all she cared about was focusing on her thoughts. She didn't want to entertain them but they were always too difficult to avoid. So she just gave in and allowed it define her mood. Thankfully, Cassidy knew her too well and

    "Are you out of your bloodly mind?" Sasha yelled. "You want me to tell Chris what exactly? That the man who has haunted my dreams for years now is finally back and it's not my fault but feelings that I have tried to bury for so long are springing up? You want me to tell Chris that and you think that he won't skin me alive? I am not trying to die before my time, so no, sis. I am not telling Christopher anything!" Sasha said with a tone of finality but Cassidy was never one to back down without a fight. She didn't do it with strangers so doing it with her best friend was something that would never happen. "Are you listening to yourself as well? Do you want to continue lying to him? Do you not know that you are hurting that young man?" "What he doesn't know wouldn't kill him," Sasha said silently and Cassidy shook her head. "You have become exactly what you tried fighting all these months. What you are doing to Chris is exactly what Jake did to you." Sasha slammed her hand on the tab

    Chapter SeventeenTen minutes seemed like more than enough time for Jane to arrive at Laura's house.She lived with her mother. The woman had lost her husband two years back and Laura felt like she didn't need to be alone. So she packed out of her one room apartment and moved back in with her mother."Bye guys." Laura shouted out as she closed the door."Bye aunty Laura." In between bites, Cassidy was still able to respond to the greeting."How are you doing over there baby girl?" Jane asked as she looked at her daughter from the driver's window."I'm doing okay mom. This cake is delicious. It's the best I've ever had.""Well, he did say that you were going to enjoy it. I guess he wasn't lying.""How did you meet him again?"Jane decided that it was best if her daughter didn't know everything that had happened."He came to me. Yeah, he came to apologize and he brought the gift.""Well, he is a very nice man then. I think I like him."You and me both Cass, you and me both.Jane eyes fo

    "Damn it!" Emily cursed under her breath. Every time she was beginning to have a quiet moment with Sebastian, something or someone just always had to ruin it. She could see the spark in his eyes and she knew that he was seeing her in another light. The kind of light that Emily wanted her to see him in. And now her phone just had to go and ring, interrupting the moment she was sharing with him. She removed the phone from her handbag and was more annoyed when she saw the caller ID."Yes?" She was afraid that if she had said more words, the man would have sensed her anger and wanted to find a way to relieve her of it. But Williams didn't need to see her before he could sense the mood that she was in. "Em, are you alright?" He had the same caring tone in his voice which Emily hated. She had never seen Williams as a passionate man. To her he was too bland and empty, nothing drove him to the edge. Nothing made him think outside the box, he was a calculative, arranged and organized man. It

    The bar was filled with people. Andy's has always had a full house mostly because he had good music and his staffs were as kind as the day was bright. Emily could spot some foreigners in the bar. It was a normal thing for them to always occupy all the space there. The town of Los Angeles always had people trooping into it because not only was it a tourist site, but it was also a place where opportunities could come through. Anything was possible or at least that is what they believed. They had one had a cowboy come into town with their hippy-dippy style of dressing. Once he was settled in, he opened a salon and it was his favourite place to go. Soon, he had been transformed into an LA man. It was difficult to transform him but he had the kind of spirit that could adapt to anything at any time.Emily walked towards the counter, but Andy was nowhere in sight. The cute little bartender had always had a thing for Emily but just like Williams, Emily had only considered him good as a friend

    The drive back to her company was awfully quiet. It would have been a great time to have company, like that of Sebastian. Looking at the driver's mirror, she could almost see his perfectly symmetrical face and his tattooed arms. He had a dangerous aura around him, and there was nothing that Emily loved more than danger. Emily shook her head. She shouldn't be noticing anything about him. She shouldn't be even thinking about him. She should focus on how weird and awkward it will be when she meets Williams the next time. Deciding to cross that bridge when she gets to it, Emily swerved into the parking lot. There, she saw Sebastian waiting for it.She could hear her heart racing, she could feel her blood running into her ears. She grabbed on tightly to the steering wheel. Did he have to be so attractive? Did he have to make her want him so badly? Realizing that those weren't the things she should be thinking about, she turned off her engine and focused on getting rid of him.To hell with

    It was becoming clear that all the people Sebastian was getting acquitted with were dangerous men and they all knew Ethan. The man that approached them was covered with tattoos and the more Sebastian observed him, the more he noticed the cliche way the man was dressing. He had on nose rings and an earring on his eyebrows."Hello, Denzel," Ethan said as he stood up."I see we are now mates, if not what would give you the courage to address me by my name?" "I don't believe they are any secrets between us."Denzel's couldn't take his eyes off the little brat that had almost gotten him arrested. He had sworn that the next time he sees him, he would be a dead man. But he had come with Chairman's men and anyone who wanted to live knew not to mess with Chairman. The man could do unimaginable things to his victim but still behave like he was doing nothing. "I don't think we do," Denzel said as he offered a smile his way and ushered them to their seats. "So I'm curious to know, how did a ric

    Sebastian had hoped that he would never get to see the building that threatened to end his life whenever he stepped foot into it. Reluctantly, Ethan and Sebastian moved towards the door and one of the men nugged them along."What? So when you are not chatting like little girls, you guys chose to irritate me by walking like snails?" The man said with anger in his voice. As much as Sebastian wanted to reply to him, he decided to save his strength for when he would need to run away from Maverick and his gang and if he couldn't, he would fight his way out. He didn't mind getting shot, anything was better than working full time for him.They didn't pass through the club as they did before. The entrance was a lot narrower and the presence of two guards gave the clear message of the entrance being off limits to regular party freaks. They walked in the dark for what felt like hours but was only five minutes and Sebastian kept praying that they weren't passing through the human body room. Sud

    Sebastian smiled to himself as he pulled up to the parking lot of the company. He was glad for the conversation he had with Ethan earlier. The man was a pain in the ass most of the time but he did help him get the perspective he needed.Sebastian yelled as Ethan hovered over him so early in the morning. He was used to the man not being the morning type but Ethan was wide awake and staring directly into his eyes. "Man, what the hell?!" Sebastian screamed out as he pushed Ethan away from his body. He reeked of alcohol making Sebastian worry about why he did not just pass out already. That was mostly what he did whenever he came back drunk."Don't you have where to go today?" Ethan was talking about him going out in search of a job but Sebastian knew better. There were no jobs available anywhere. "Won't be going anywhere today," he said as he turned over to his side "there are no jobs in this godforsaken town. So I might as well just save myself from the stress of looking.""So what do

    The weather was pleasant but the same couldn't be said for Emily's appearance. She cursed as she highlighted from her car and almost ran into her father's company building. She waited patiently till she heard the ding of the elevator, rushing in she quickly pressed the button that would open up to her office.Immediately the doors of the elevator opened up, she marched into her office floor completely ignoring the greetings of all the staffs that saw her. She walked briskly towards her secretary's desk and slammed her hand into her table."Good afternoon ma'am." The young lady stuttered as she looked into the gleaming eyes of her boss who was not looking happy."Sandra, what meeting did I have today?" "Ummm. Ma, which one are you referring to?"Could she be serious?"Which one am I talking about? The one I'm just coming back from. Which meeting was that?"Sandra looked down from Emily's face and scrambled the papers on her table looking for her boss itinerary for the day."Umm, that

"Ethan, what am I doing here?", "I told you I didn't want to come out tonight", "who do you know that is broke that goes to a club?", I said disturbed"You worry too much my friend. Tonight is all about enjoying some","Work of art, yeah yeah, I know", I interjected, "let's just go inside already","I added striding past him.He grabbed my arm and whispered, "hey, I got a solution for your money problem as well, you'll see", and then walked excitedly into the club"Ethan, Ethan!
