The gust of wind caresses my face as it blows through my hair. I'm sitting comfortably at the poolside in front of Liam's house, staring at the water reflecting the moonlight.
I'm stuck thinking about what I’m going to do with the information I got earlier from Liam. I did not expect I'll be able to gather such information in a single day. Now, I'm not sure if I'm going to tell Noah everything.
Why didn't Liam say anything to Noah when they saw each other at the cafe before my accident if he knew Noah was that boy?
I don’t know… I don’t fully comprehend any of it.
Was Noah already aware of these facts? Maybe he already knows something about this. Because of the popularity of Liam's family, it's impossible for him not to recognize Liam.
I pushed Blade away from me by putting my hands toward his chest. I felt Blade release softly into the kisses as he loosened his hand towards my waist. While his lips were still close to mine, he whispered. “Just stay still.” I could feel his lips moving as they brushed against mine, as well as the warmth of his breaths tickling my face. “Liam is staring right at us.” “What?” I let out a hushed yell and struggled to break free from Blade. To keep me from moving, he kissed me once more. We are not moving, just our lips embracing each other. My entire body was stunned, and I could think of nothing else but to ask for help. I feel like my heart is going to explode with the pressure of its battering. I also knew that with Bl
“Hey!” I turned to see who Noah had called. When I saw Blade it was as if I was drowning in pity. How are they able to hurt someone like him who has done nothing else but be a good person? He lost his family and now lives alone and still serves the family who made his life miserable and took their lives? Why should good people like Blade be the most hurt in this world? And why are dirty and monstrous people like Liam the ones who keep rising? Now tell me that the world is not unfair. Blade's attention flickered back and forth between the two of us as if he was wondering what we were talking about.
[THIRD PERSON - POV] Due to the pressure of the wind on her body induced by Blade riding his motorcycle faster than a bullet, Crystal's eyelids were firmly squeezed. Fearing that she would fall and spew in the strong breeze, she clutched to his waist. When they slowed down, Crystal was quite horrified at the place where they managed to stop because it's just a downright spooky abandoned and obviously scorched house. “Get off,” Blade uttered as he removed his headgear from his head. “H-Huh? Are you sure, Blade?” Crystal swiveled her gaze around the place. She noticed a house in a darkened area. There are traces of burnt around the house, and it appears that it will fall at any minute. The entire place is surrounded by tal
Blade pulled away from Crystal's arms and calmed himself down to speak clearly. He lifted his hand to her face and wiped the tears that flowed down her face. Crystal's brows are slanted up as her eyes sag, showing her empathy for Blade. “You have nothing to feel sorry about,” Blade murmured as he rose from the ground and helped Crystal to stand on her feet. “That's something the Spencers should be saying.” “The bullet from the rifle that's lodged in your head, and the time Noah saw you in the river, back when you were on the verge of dying... Are they also the ones who did that to you?” Crystal asked frantically, she had a strong feeling that what she was thinking was right, but she just couldn't bear to hear it yet. “Yes,” Blade spoke up without hesitation. “It is the same night when they burned down our house while both of my parents were resting in their bedroom. When I regained consciousness, I saw a woman wearing a white broad beach
[Crystal] I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. Blade and I were silent for a long time and just staring at the sea. A lot of things are troubling our minds. Especially this confusing feeling. When I opened my phone to see what was causing it to vibrate, I saw a text message. From: The Man I Married [Where are you?] “From the man I married?” I heard Blade’s chuckle so I did not reply to Liam first and put down my phone. “I didn’t know his name back then. You know I didn’t know him when we got married. He even lied to me about his name, saying it’s ‘Key Zayn’. I really thought that’s his real name.” I just now noticed that I haven’t changed Liam's name in my phonebook since then. Even Noah has still named a mushroom, and I have no intention of removing that nickname. Though ‘Noah’ is what I call him now, he's still the largest mushroom to ever appear in the most u
I felt my hands trembling and I started to become jittery. What will I do? I can’t stop Liam from taking Blade to the hospital because it might put him even more in danger. “Are you feeling okay?” Liam asked me while we were both rushing to his car. I just nodded at him as I pressed my lips. “Are you sure you will still come with us to the hospital? You look exhausted.” “Liam, can you please just take me there!?” I couldn’t help but panic because I am so worried about Blade’s condition right now. We followed the ambulance that was on its way to run Blade to the hospital. What will I do? How can I stave off Liam from finding out about the bullet on Blade’s head? The shivering of my hand and edges still lingered due to the extreme nervousness I am feeling. When I felt my phone vibrate again, I immediately opened it hoping that this is Noah. I answered his call after I turned down the volume a
When they arrived at the hospital, Liam rushed straight to the room where Blade was being confined, while Crystal began seeking for the doctor Noah had mentioned. She searches through a large hospital, struggling to figure out who Doctor Park is. She rambled everywhere and asked almost every nurse to find the doctor. “Where was my guard taken?” Liam hastily inquired of the nurse with whom he had crossed paths. She bent slightly in respect to him. “Mr. Spencer, the patient is currently in the emergency room, receiving first-aid care from Doctor Cole,” she said before proceeding to walk. Liam went straight to the ER and sat at the chair positioned in front of the sliding doors, his hands clasped together as he pressed it lightly on his lips. Somehow, Liam is worried about his chief guard because of the relationship they developed between the two of them. Blade had earned his trust, and he treated him as if he were his brother for a few mon
“Will the operation be safe? How big is his chance to recover?” Crystal asked in a hushed tone and still seemed confused about what will be her decision. “The possibilities of the surgery will hardly be 70-30, I can't say that I guarantee the success of the operation but, it will be better for him to undergo the operation while the bullet is still not sinking deeper into his brain. The damage from the temporary cavity that forms is even worse. There is no room for the brain to move and the shock waves often cause irreversible damage. Neurosurgery must be done immediately before the situation worsens.” Doctor Park said. “B-But… Can we do this without his consent?” The Doctor nodded at him. “Yes, as long as we get his parent's consent that the surgery will be performed. Because it is not just simple surgery, this i
