Matilda POVI was trying to hold back her tears from falling. I had promised her self not to display any indication of weakness from his words, but it was impossible. They had stuck really deep through her heart, like a sword "I appreciate your worry, Vector ," I responded, her tone remaining strong even though I was in turmoil. "I would like it if you could respect her choice. Leonard and I have come to an understanding, and we will take care of our personal matters."Vector 's expression became more gentle as he grasped the situation, and he hesitantly nodded in agreement. "Okay, Matilda . If that is your wish. Just be aware that Shewill be here for you if you need someone to talk to or if things become overwhelming."I gave him a slight smile to him, appreciative of his backing. "Thanks, Vector . I appreciate our friendship and I have confidence in you."Leonard stayed quiet, his eyes locked on me. I observed a range of feelings dancing in his eyes - ridicule, deli
All the while, Matilda 's father had stayed aside,watching the serious,concise and yet point clear conversation unfolding between the two.When they reach an agreement, Leonard pulls out his Cheque book, writes the angent a cheque of two hundred billion,and describes his bank address which is already on the cheque to him.He further instructs the agent to take the house documents to the bank for safety."I will give the original documents to the bank manager on your behalf". Matilda 's father chips in here,snatching the written cheque from the agents house."Transfer of such huge property cannot be taken with hands of levity, don't be silly "."We must see the documents first and then go together to the bank to complete our transaction."Okay if that's how you prefer it".The agent says shrugging,and picking his phone out of his pocket.He calls the estate office and requests that the sky house's document be delivered to the house location immediately."Okay sir, I'm on it".A deep voiced mak

She walked through the long corridor of the hospital, my steps tired, my shoulders were drooped in exhaustion and my face held worry unconcealed. I hated hospitals but I had to be here, for her sake. She was family. My family and a little girl. She did not deserve to be alone.She had just returned from work and had come down here as soon as She had finished for the day. She opened the door to the room she was put in, She watched her small frame lying on the bed, ridden by tubes and IVs.Oh, Hailey. Tears blurred my vision.She walked quietly and took my using position by her side, holding her still hands. “Hello, Hailey.”The steady beeping of her heart was the only response I got. The evidence that she was still alive. Barely.My eyes trailed the lines of transparent wires infused into her skin, the liquid treatment trickling from the bag that held the drug into her veins. “Please find a way to fight this, Hailey. Please come back to us alive. Come back to me alive.”I paused to com

Feeling excitement, Leonard opened the door to the luxury car showroom with his heart racing. He had always hoped that he would own a brand new luxury of a car and it was a dream come true standing next t the garage and seeing the beauty of the car. While heading towards the sales counter, he noticed a stylish black sports car and saw the salesman glance up from his phone with a smug grin."Hey pal, do you need assistance?" he inquired, his tone exuding doubt.Leonard squared his shoulders, attempting to exude confidence. Yes, I'm looking to purchase a vehicle. "Specifically that one," he remarked, indicating the sports car with a nod.The salesman arched an eyebrow. Is that the one? Are you referring to the X500 limited edition? "That car costs $100,000, buddy."Leonard nodded firmly, his expression showing his strong resolve. "I am aware." I have conducted my investigation. "I am prepared to buy."The salesman made a snorting sound while looking at his coworker, who observed the i
When Leonard answered the phone, his heart raced because he assumed it was simply another standard check-in from the school. However, the severe tone of the principal's voice on the other end chilled him to the bone. "Leonard , you must come to the school right now. Gigi , your son, carried a gun to school." As Leonard stopped on the side of the road and stared at the wet pavement from the rain, his thoughts went blank. It was as if someone had hit him in the stomach. "What? How did this come about?" He stammered, anxiety vibrating in his voice. "We need you to come in and figure this out even though we're not sure yet. The principal stated firmly, "The cops are on their way."As Leonard sped back towards the school on the motorcycle, his mind was racing. Worst-case possibilities raced through his head, and fear weighed heavily in his heart. How could his son, his innocent, loving boy, have done such a thing? He noticed the police cars and ambulances with their lights blazing
He had the impression that he was trapped in a bad dream with no way out. In his living room, he paced back and forth, attempting to make sense of it all. But his confusion increased with further reflection. He heard the door open at that very moment, and his wife Matilda entered with a worried expression on her face. "What's going on, Leonard ? I noticed the police vehicles outside."Leonard 's gaze met hers as he looked for clarification. "Matilda , we need to talk." She set down her suitcase and approached him, concern shining in her eyes. "What is it?" Leonard inhaled deeply as he searched for the appropriate words. "In Gigi 's backpack, the cops discovered a gun. And it's owned by a detective by the name of Danny .""Oh Detective Danny , such a good man." She mentioned with a smile on her face, leaving Leonard in shock."I am talking about a man's gun in our bedroom with his Id card. What are you talking about?" Leonard questioned."Hey listen to me, I don't like it wh
