"Wh... what's going on between me and Miss Mary, boss?" Jonah asked while keeping a clueless face on but King could see everything beyond that face.   "What do you think of me, Jonah? That without you I don't have any connections with the world, huh?" King asked with raised eyebrows, making him nervous.    "No, no, no, King! That's not what I meant!" Jonah instantly tried to explain himself but King cut him off with another laugh. Jonah stopped fumbling with words and looked at him with a frown. "Are you pulling my legs?" He asked which made King laugh more.   "Oh damn! You should have seen your face!" King said and kept laughing.   "Fine, fine! Laugh as much as you want to. I will have my days too and that day I will be laughing till my heart is full and you won't be able to say anything. That day even your bossy attitude won't work because I will only abide by 'Your boss' from then on. Then yo

IN THE NURSERY   "Hey, I didn't know you were going to be here too?" Sarah asked in surprise while walking toward Mary and her husband who were engaged in a light conversation.    "Hey, wifey!" Elijah came forward with a big happy smile which immediately filled her heart and she felt happy within. He opened his arms wide open to scoop her in.   "Hey, husband." She mumbled and immediately reached him to get cocooned in his safe embrace. She inhaled his rich scent and calmed her nerves down. She hugged him warmly when he returned and gave a kiss at the crown of her head.    They seem to be lost in each other and totally forgot about Mary who was standing there awkwardly. Mary seemed to notice that too and cleared her throat loud enough to make them realise her presence. That seemed to work and they both pulled away from each other and looked at her with a smile. They were still side hugging e

"Wh… what do you mean?" Sarah asked in an uneven tone. She was taken aback by the blankness in Elijah's tone. Her innocent questions seemed to trigger something inside him and he let out a frustrated sigh and ran his fingers through his hair.   Sarah suddenly remembered that day's event when they went on the date and he suddenly became somebody else. She got scared somewhat thinking he is going to react the same way today too. She went completely silent and looked down while taking a step away from him.     Elijah noticed all her actions and also read the fear in her eyes and felt more frustrated toward himself. He took some deep breaths to calm himself down but he couldn't but at that moment all he could do was change his expression back to normal. He took a step toward her. Good thing he didn't flinch away from her.    He calmly got a hold of her upper arms and pulled her closer to him. Then he proceeded

A boy around the age of eight was running as fast as his small legs could. He wasn't even looking back and was running with all the dedication and passion in the world while chanting only one thing in his mind.    'I have to survive. I will not let them destroy me. I have to survive to take revenge. I will take revenge for everything that is taken away from me. I will return and take my revenge.'    The more he reminds himself of those words, the faster his legs work in the dark night. He was running through the jungle, cutting himself with the fallen branches here and there but he didn't care. He soon noticed the road and a smile came up on his face. He was now at the other side of the city, far enough from that burning fire. Now he is safe or he thought so.    Soon a blaring sound came from his left and a blinding light came from the car which was approaching him at full speed. And within a few seconds….

"That was so good, Sarah! I can't believe you were keeping this heaven away from me all these days! Now, after having it, I definitely can't guarantee you if it's going to be the last time." Mary said while relishing the memory of the heavenly food in her mind.    "In your dream." Sarah said with a smirk before taking a gulp of water.    "No, seriously. He is such a good cook. Where did he learn to cook like this? Is he a professional cook?" Jonah asked while appreciating the food cooked by Elijah truthfully.    Sarah was confused after hearing his question. How strange! Why did this question never come to her mind? These questions were really basic yet important. She doesn't know how he learnt to cook so deliciously. She doesn't know if he is a professional cook or not but he could definitely be a professional cook!    That's such a great idea. Why didn't it come to her mind befo
