The conference hall was dimly lit, enough to glance at questioning faces of all. He could spot all the mafia leaders, some sitting, some standing and some arguing. Hall was reverberating with one solid word ' Illegitimate child ' He felt the rush of anger boiling in his veins. His jaw was clenched tight as noises were hitting his eardrums. His hands were fisted, " Enough! " he forced it through his clenched teeth which came as a roar. He roared from his head chair. Their faces blanched with fear. Dead silence spread in every corner of the hall.      " You all are misled with half of the information. Or I should say the truth is completely unheard by you all. " Danil said. All heads swirled toward Danil, " I'm that child of my father, you all are talking about. Not Brother. " Danil said.     He stood up angrily from his chair. The chair screeched back violently. His father stopped him. Furiously, He was glaring straight

This morning, she was feeling more energetic and healthy. As usual, she found him on the half side of the bed. She wasn't in the hospital anymore. But it wasn't even looking like her room either. Doctors and nurses were around her all day and night. She was a little feeble but could manage it.      " Good morning, " She smiled.      " Good morning, How are you feeling today? " He asked, with a smile.      " Better, " She smiled. She could sit by herself but he didn't allow her. She wanted to bathe. But she wasn't getting how to say him! Nurses helped her. It was early morning and she couldn't catch the sight of any helper.      " You wanna say something? " He asked. After many days, she was beholding him with his laptop.      " I wanna bathe. " She hesitated.      " Sure, I'll arrange it. " He smiled, giving a quick g

Waking up with the first ray of the sun, she stretched her arms. Her one arm was blocked by something on her side. She turned on her back to peep around. Liam's eyes were closed. He was sleeping calmly. She was watching him after many days sleeping like this, calmly. Indeed after this incident, today he slept peacefully. His frown was ironed. She yawned and covered her mouth with her hand. She straightened up and yawned again. Putting her feet on the dark red carpet, she went out of the room. No one made her wake up the afternoon. Liam let her sleep as much as she wanted to. She was thirsty and her stomach was growling loudly. She went into the kitchen and opened the double door refrigerator. It was fully loaded with her favourite edible stuff. She grabbed some fruits and a water bottle. Closing it behind, she sat on the table. She twisted the lid of the bottle and was going to touch its rim with her lips. She felt bottle grabbing from her hand forcefully, " What are you doing? " He

  She hit her back on the mattress. She wasn't alone in her room. The door wasn't locked or closed properly, because of security reasons. She could see four bodybuilders, kinda guards holding guns and guarding the door. Vanessa was sitting in the chair, moving her eyes around although there were only two of them in the room. There was a security troop, which someone had to cross to reach her. She wasn't feeling sleepy. She was used to sleeping when she felt him around her. She was staring at her cell phone. She was in her old room. She pulled out the drawer of the nightstand and plucked old dairy from it. She had written everything in it which she remembered about her family. She moved her fingers on the written name Caspian Boo, Rick Boo. She remembered she used to say mom to two women in her childhood days but it had been a blur with the time. All she remembered about them through this dairy or her memories. Tears rippled on the brink of her eyes. 

Slowly, she opened her eyes. Her gaze found the laptop close and two arms were around her stomach. Ana and Isha were enclosing her on the mattress, by hugging her they both were sleeping. Someone beat the door of the room.      " Get up, girls! " Mrs Fernandez said out loudly.      It made Ana and Isha stir in their sleep. Ana sat on the bed, cracking her one eye. She picked up the small clock. " It's five o'clock. Why is someone beating the door? " She said with a sleepy voice.      " It's your wedding, isha. " Ana said, rubbing her eyes.      " Oh my God! Where is my dress? Where is my makeup artist? Why am I not finding anything? " Isha's sleep was far gone hearing it.    Immediately Isha paced at the door and opened it. Both big ladies of the house were standing out of the door, resting hands on their hips.
