“Rhoda?” Malcolm mumbled with glassy eyes.
Rhoda lightened her smile, and held his right palm.
He slowly looked down at their holding hands. He wished he could snap his hand off, but he was stuck.
“Can we talk? Lemme buy you coffee” She whispered.
A COFFEE SHOP**
Malcolm finally took down the coffee cup and Rhoda’s smiling face caught his eyes.
“I never thought you would drop the cup. You must be anxious being with me right now” She said.
“…Why…are you here?” He asked, gently, but there was coldness in his voice.
“To see you” She answered.
Malcolm looked at her but quickly threw his eyes away.
“When did you come?” He asked.
“Yesterday. I’ve been trying to reach you but…you ignored me. Why?”
Malcolm sighed deeply.
“Didn’t you ask for it?” He stared at her.
She blinked her eyes down.
“I missed you,,, thats why I came back. I really thought I could do without you in the Mafia’s cartel at Milan,,, but…I couldn’t. I was sick throughout the year of your absence”
“Now, You’ve seen me. Can you leave?” He inquired.
“What?” She whispered, staring into his blazing eyes.
“No,,, I can’t” She maintained, shaking her head.
“Here is not safe for you. You should leave”
“Then, do you think Milan is safer?When I came, Cindy gestured me in. She told me, you wouldn’t wanna see me. But,,, I couldn’t just leave after hearing the story” She uttered.
“Story? What story?” He asked.
Rhoda swallowed hard, and tightened the grip of her fist, which laid on her thighs.
“I heard you were almost ki||ed by an assassin. That girl with amnesia” Rhoda whispered.

“Cindy wanted to end her life,, but I told her not to” She further whispered.
Malcolm raised his brows.
“And why not? She’s useless to me. My intention of keeping her alive is to find who conspired with her to ki|| me”
“Yes,,, I understand. According to Cindy,, this person knows a lot about you. If she knows about you, Then,,, she must know about me too”
Malcolm’s eyes blinked involuntarily. He knew she had a point.
“There might be a hundred peeps behind her, who knows? What if ki||ing her doesn’t change anything?”
“And what are you insinuating?” He asked.
“She has temporary amnesia. In time, She will regain her memories. We’ll make her say the whole truth, find those who conspired against you, alongside with her,,, and then find them…Lastly,,, We’ll ki|| them all”
Malcolm slowly looked down.
“You will ki|| her yourself,,, If that what you want. Right now,,, You…and I,,, we aren’t safe. Who knows who she’s working with. Who knows who’s she’s working for, and who’s working for her”
“But,,, I still want you to leave” Malcolm muttered.
Rhoda’s eyes turned glassy. It roamed around, sadly.
“Why?” She finally relaxed her brown colored eyes on him.
“Do you still h@ťě me for doing what I did?” She asked.
“So much. Please leave. I don’t wanna see you. I’ll take care of things my own way” He said, standing up.
People were now looking at him with happy faces.
Seeing Malcolm Keepers, was a privilege since he was a top celebrity.
They were chatting all about, waving and pointing at him.
“I gotta go” He cooed.
“Wait” She quickly said, on her feet.
He halted his legs, but didn’t turn to her.
“I’m gonna leave…but only on one condition” She said.
He slowly turned to her.
“What’s that?” He asked.
“Let’s the girl’s memories return first, Put an end to her life and her gangs as you wish to,,, and till only then, will I vanish from your sight. It’s a promise” She forced a smile.

“Hey…Sorry” Ariana beckoned to Cindy, who was almost leaving.
Cindy walked to her.
“Its Doctor Cindy. Cindy Keepers”
“Ah,,, Sorry” She whispered and looked down.
“When are my parents coming?” She asked, softly.

“Parents?” Cindy asked.
“Yes…” Ariana slowly looked at her.
“Or,,, don’t they know, I’m here. I’m quite nervous. What if they come, and I don’t recognize them”
Cindy blinked her eyes a hundred times.
“Huh…You see,,, we…I mean,,, I found you half dead on the road side, with your pool of blood-
“Oh gosh!” Ariana exclaimed.
“Yeah,,, so…Huh” Cindy scratched her hair.
“You were alone there. Mehn,,, You’re so lucky I saw you. I pulled my car and quickly hurried you to the hospital. You should be grateful I’m a specialized doctor” Cindy smiled.
Ariana smiled back.
“Thank you so much, doctor”
“You’re welcome”
“I wonder what happened. Did you contact the police?”
“Uh…Soon” Cindy smiled, nervously.
“But how do I reach my parents? Did you probably see my phone around? Or maybe some ID??” She asked.
“None. Sorry”
Ariana sighed and nodded.
Cindy turned to leave, once more.
“Doctor Cindy?” Ariana called.
“Goodness” Cindy muttered under her breath.
“Hmm?” She forced a smile, after facing her.
“What’s…my name?” She asked. at Cindy who only stared at her, confusedly.
