HOSPITAL***
Paige sits close to Carding caressing his hair. His eyes were firmly closed and the monitor was making a beeping sound with every seconds that passes.
“I hope you wake up soon Carding. I’m sorry this has to happen to you because of me. I don’t care if we’re half siblings, I’m ready to commit an abomination if that’s what is going to take for you to wake up. I don’t care if you become mentally insane, I just want to see your beautiful eyes again. Just wake ok, and I’m going to do what you want. Carding” She called his name, but Carding remained unconscious on the bed and Paige resumes her cry.
“You’re really so cruel, hope you know that. I’m going to make you pay in hundred fonds for making me sad like this. Aren’t you going to wake up, your Paige is sad right now. You’re making your Paige sad, you h@ťě seeing my tear, right?.So please wake up so that I’ll stop crying” Paige said hiccuping as more tears falls down her eyes.
Tessa enters the ward.
“Cassandra” She called and Paige looks at her with tears in her eyes.
“He’s refusing to wake up, What should I do? He doesn’t want to wake up no matter how hard I’ve begged. Is he mad at me for breaking up with him that way? Is that why he doesn’t want to wake up? But I only did because that was the right thing to do. Maybe I shouldn’t have done it” Paige said crying loudly.
Tessa hugs her. “Don’t worry Paige, everything is going to be fixed soon, just be a little patience” Tessa said patting her softly.
And it took some minutes before Paige slowly raised her hands and hugged Tessa back. Tessa smiles and continues patting her.
She looks at Carding and sighs.
“It will be over soon dear, just hold on a little bit” She said kissing her hair.

“Desiree I am….”
“I don’t want to hear your sorry Bryan, is only going to make matters worst. At least now we’re even”.
“What does that mean Desiree?”
“I once called you a freeloader, right? I’ll take what you did to me as a payback for I calling you a freeloader”.
“Desiree it hasn’t gotten to that. I’m sorry, I had no idea you love me. if I did, I won’t have played with your feelings. I’m so sorry Desiree” Bryan apologize.
“Goodnight Bryan” Desiree said and entered her room. Bryan was about knocking on Desiree’s room door, when he got a call from Nadia’s dad.

“She did?” Bryan asked looking surprised.
“Yes she did. She has start acting her age. Can you please talk to her. She has been moody since she arrived at my mansion” Mr. McDonald said.
Bryan sighs dipping his hand in his hair.
“Alright. I’ll talk to her tomorrow”.
“Thanks Bryan. You should also dropped by at the mansion one of these days”.
“I’ll dad. You too, bye.” Bryan said and ended the call. He raised his hand to knock on Desiree’s door, but halted from doing so.
“Maybe I should just leave her alone” Bryan muttered and went for his room.

Desiree came out from the bathroom after having a steamy shower. She sits on the bed, thinking about what Bryan did to her and she won’t deny that she is still feeling so hurt right now.
She was still deep in thought, when her phone chimes. She looks at the message and it was from Clark, both exchanged numbers.
? ARE YOU AT HOME NOW?
“Why is he making it his headache?” Desiree asked herself, but nevertheless, she gaved answered to his question, dropping her phone on the bed and another message came from Clark again.

Desiree furrowed her eyebrows, she hasn’t even reply when another message came from him again.
? IF YOU ARE FREE TOMORROW, THEN LET’S HANGOUT TOGETHER, IS GOING TO BE MY TREAT.
“And who told you I want to go out with you. I won’t” Desiree said and was about typing NO, when another message came from him again.
? I WON’T TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER
“Is he a psychopath, simply because he comforted me earlier, doesn’t mean he should order me around”.
? I AM NOT TRYING TO ORDER YOU AROUND, I JUST WANT TO HELP YOU EASE THE PAIN YOU’RE GOING THROUGH
“Is he a mind reader? How come he keeps replying to everything I have in mind?”.
? BUT IF YOU AREN’T COMFORTABLE WITH ME, YOU CAN REPLY NO.
Desiree takes in her lips before replying to his message.
~I AM IN. She typed clicking send, and patiently waited for his reply.
“Why is he not replying back?” Desiree asked after waiting for minutes for his reply.
? WERE YOU WAITING FOR MY REPLY? I WAS HELPING AUNT TESSA OUT. SEE YOU TOMORROW, DREAM ABOUT ME.
Desiree smiles lightly after reading his message. “Dream about you? You’re really Crazy” She said and falls to the bed and a smile appeared on her face.

NEXT DAY=HOSPITAL***
The door of the ward Carding was in, opened and a man wearing all black, enters the ward, looking at the sleeping Carding. He walks closer to him, caressing his hair softly.
“Long time no see, my son” He said touching his face and Odessa enters the ward, her eyes widened when she sees the man in front of her.
“Morris” She said and Morris looks at her.
“What did heck are you doing here?” She asked.
“Why have you been slighting my calls?” Morris answered her question with a question.
“Come with me” She said and forcefully take him out of the ward, to the back of the hospital.
“What the heck are you doing here Morris!!! Why’re you here!!!” Odessa yells at him.
“I heard Carding is hospitalized, Should I have ignored that, knowing fully well Carding is in critical condition?” Morris said.
“Carding’s health got nothing to do with you Morris”.
“Of course it does, because I’m Carding’s Dad”.
“Vince is his father and not you Morris” Odessa defend.
“Quit with the lies Odessa. Until when will you stop lying to everyone. You were already two weeks pregnant before you slept with Vince. You had Carding in your womb way before you slept with Vince, Which makes me Carding’s real Dad and not Vince!!” Morris shouted at her.
