In Love Again 62: AN ACHILLES HEEL 1
Simon sat opposite Josh and stares at him with an expressionless face as Josh calmly picked up his cup of tea and drank it, acting as if he had no idea why Simon was there. Simon felt Josh was too calm and unconcerned for someone who had invited him to come to a place as far away as this, but he didn’t say anything. He was willing to see what this cousin of his was up to. Simon, even though he was seating alone with Josh, didn’t actually come to the restaurant alone. He came with Asher and they had arrived at the designated venue, three minutes ago, before they walked into the massaging parlor called sky run palace.On their way there, Simon fairly understood Asher's worries, the massaging parlor was inconveniently located on the far outskirt of town, on a hill amid the forestry by the roadside, and from the look of it, he had every reason to believe a lot of shady business occur there. The palace was officially a massaging parlor but also had a restaurant and a few rooms for travel
In Love Again 63: AN ACHILLES HEEL 2
Alvira woke up rather enthusiastic about the day. She had spoken to Simon just a few hours before she went to bed the previous day and he had promised to pick her up after her classes in the evening. The mere thought of them going on a date again made her blush. But from the moment she got to the mansion, she knew something was wrong, the other maids who would usually welcome her with a cheerful, ‘good morning Alvria’ practically avoided her like a plague. It first happened in the dressing room. The place was as bubbly and as busy as usual, people were taking their baths and changing into their uniforms while others were rushing out to carry out their duties but the moment Alvira walked in, the whole place went silent as everyone turned and stared at her, one could almost hear a pin drop from the silence. Alvira was a little embarrassed at the silence and the way they looked at her with disdain, she couldn't help but wonder if they didn't hear that she poured the tea away because i
In Love Again 64: A SHOCKING NEWS 1
In a private ward at St. Joseph, a hospital miles away from town, the pulse monitor beeped continuously reading the rate of the heart in the process, Simon lay on the bed still unconscious, a neck brace around his neck and a drip attached to his hand. Asher sat in a chair beside him, a worried look on his face and a bandage wrapped around his head, he had woken up about an hour ago and was a little surprised but relieved to see that he and Simon had been transported to a hospital. The doctors had shown up and informed him that they had been in an accident and that had jump-started his hazy memory. He immediately got to work upgrading himself and Simon’s ward to a private one then having a thorough checkup done on both of them, especially after he heard that there was nothing wrong with Simon, as well as himself. Now he sat by Simon’s side waiting for him to wake up as well as for the results of the test they had carried out.Even though Simon was taking longer to wake up, he knew
In Love Again 65: A SHOCKING NEWS 2
The door swung open with a bang, and Simon turned around to see Alvira rush in with a face washed white with fear and sweat "Alvira?" He called with surprise. "God! Simon! You scared me!" Alvira shouted and busted into tears as she ran to him and fell into his arms hugging him. Simon didn’t have time to overcome his surprise when he felt her run into him.“You are not allowed to scare me like that again!” She shouted at him again and he smiled, his eyes softening in the process.He didn't seem to understand why she was there instead of his grandmother, or did they come together? He had believed his grandparents would be the first people to walk through that door now that he was at the hospital, but he was surprised to see that it was her, and it made him happy. All his life, no woman had ever been that worried about him, or being there for him in moments like this other than his grandmother and the thought that she was not just there but was worried about him made his heart feel wa
In Love Again 66: CRISIS
Simon slowly opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling for a while before turning his head calmly to Asher who happened to walk into the room at that exact minute, the bandage on Asher’s head was now gone and replaced with a small plaster, as was the neck brace on Simon’s neck. "How was it?" He asked and Asher beamed. "It was successful." He replied and Simon sighed heavily, swallowed, and returned his gaze to the spot on the white ceiling that his eyes seemed glued to. While it was good news that the spinal surgery had been carried out successfully, it still seemed too good to be true to him. The first thing he had done three days ago, was to convince Alvira that he needed to be discharged the day after as he claimed he had to make a trip to a meeting the day after and also that he would be gone for a while. Even though she had complained that he needed to rest more at this hospital, she still had no choice but to agree to let him get discharged from the hospital. He had gone home
In Love Again 67: EXPOSED
Sarah sat on her bed going through a few family photographs, a faint smile tugging her lips, in fact, she had been a little bored these days. She had been rather excited when she heard of the supposed relationship between Alvira and Simon and had been even more excited when she knew Simon was really interested in Alvira, she had hoped after that dinner, she would hear more good news, especially from Alvira's mother who she had made it a habit to call frequently and gossip with. But she had heard nothing, in fact, it seemed as if nothing was going on, and their relationship was almost nonexistent. She thought and sighs, just then her phone rang and she picked it up. "Hello?" "What?" She frowned and stood up slowly. "How is that possible?" She asked, her frown deepening. She shook her head as she listened to the words of the other person, "I really don’t know what are you talking about, but you know what? I would find out what is going on and call you back." She informed the per
In Love Again 68: GETTING HELP
Alvira wiped the sweat from off her brows and sighed as she looked around the room she had just finished cleaning, her workload had increased greatly over the past few days and even though she knew it was purposely done by Lara to torture her she turned a blind eye to it, the best she could do was to adjust her shifts to before and after classes.Today in particular, she had changed her shift from morning to evening as she had been busy with her exams off late, what made things a little convenient was the fact that Simon was not in the mansion, thus the cleaning of the room was not as urgent as it usually was. She sighed as she pushed the cleaning cart towards the storage room downstairs, she stopped there, returned the cleaning equipment to their usual places, and headed for the changing room. As she did, her phone rang and she pulled it out of the pocket of her apron, looked at it and her eyes widened when she saw more than five missed calls, and they were all from Emily. Why didn’
In Love Again 69 CRISIS 2
Simon sighs and looks out the window. It was night already, and it was frustrating to sit there unable to do anything and just wait for others to do it for him. At least he had made a move first and informed his lawyer of the threat before the whole thing blew up, if not, it would have been really frustrating. He looked around the private room and found Asher wasn't anywhere in the room, he didn’t bother looking for him either, he knew he was working hard to keep things in check at the company, he pulled out his phone and saw the missed calls from Alvira, at the sight of it, he sighed again, she must be really worried about him, he had to call her and let her know he was fine. As he was about to do just that, he stumbled on the video sent to him by an anonymous number. He opened it first hoping to watch it before calling Alvira. He frowned when he saw Lana, Clarisse, and Alvira seated at a table in a cafe."I wanted to give you this.” Clarisse pulled an envelope out of her bag and p
