When Stephanie ran away from her hoise, she didn't have anywhere to go. At that vulnerable moment, an unexpected person appeared as a silver lining to her dark cloud. The man whom she had approached as a Predator, wanting to use him in her game of lies and revenge. However fate had different plans. Raiden Kingston, in her eyes was a bad guy, a villain, her enemy. After all her father would not be in prison if he had not backed up Blair in the case. Since the beginning, it was his fault. He should not have allowed Blair to the open a dead case. He had done the work of adding fuel to the fire. It was astounding, even to Stephanie herself, how Raiden went from being the devil of her story to being her saviour in hard times. She didn't realise when her gratitude towards him turned into admiration and then, to much more. Her initial impression of him had completely disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by the feeling of something that the world referred to as love. She did not even know t

Raiden was happy. After a long time, him and Jessica had spent a whole day together. They reminisced their older days, when they were just carefree kids. Lazing around, watching Spider-Man and striving on junk food.That day, they did the same. Watched Avengers, ordered a huge pizza with loads of cheese and snacked on the tons of sweets that Jessica had given him. It was such an unhealthy day, but every moment was worth it. It was like going back in time and living their childhood once again.Time flied like wind, and in bat of an eye, it was already near midnight. Since it was late, he insisted her to stay for the night. She went to her room to change. While working in the long corridor, her eyes fell on the door at the end of the lane. It was Stephanie's room. Though Jessica was okay with Raiden housing her, it did not mean that she trusted her. It was too early to let their guard down.'Let's have a talk with her.' With this thought, she proceeded towards the younger girl's room. Ex

"Careful!" Raiden exclaimed when he saw Stephanie trying to sit up straight. He rushed to her side and put a couple of pillows behind her back. She laid on the soft pillows and moaned in pain while holding her chest. He instinctively rubbed her back and squeezed her arm to help her cope with the pain."Are you all right? Do you need something?" He asked, still holding her securely. She gulped and looked at him with shy eyes, just to find him staring back at her with eyes full of concern. They stayed in the same position for about 3 seconds before he pulled back and faked a cough. She dropped her eyes back down at her hands."Here, It's time for a medicines." He held out a few pills in his palm and the glass of water in other hand. She mentally gagged at the site of those bitter medicines, but took them anyways. She silently thanked him, avoiding his eyes at all costs. He heaved a deep sigh and sat next to her."Why did you leave? You were aware of what dangers awaited you and yet you

"I really have no idea." Aaron chuckled when Blair gave him a questioning stare. As per Miguel's wish, her and Calvin visited the Andrews mansion. They found Aaron and Mr Park in the living room. However, the older couple was nowhere to be seen. She wondered what could be the reason behind the invitation."They were fighting again. Dad's health is getting worse." Aaron spoke up, out of the blue. Mister Park nodded his head in agreement."Mr Andrews is looking into divorce lawyers." He revealed. "At first I thought it was not that bad because they were attending marriage counseling. But now, things doesn't look that good.""Dad is planning to get a divorce!? Why didn't you tell me?" Aaron exclaimed, feeling disappointed. If he had known everything from the beginning, he could have tried to solve it."I didn't want to hide it from you, but your father asked me not to involve you. I am sorry." The older man apologized.My parents are considering divorce, for fuc- God's sake! How can I not

"Do you really like my brother?" It would be a lie if Stephanie said she did not expect it. Jessica was like that, nosy and straightforward. At least in Stephanie's eyes. She reminisced the conversation she had with Raiden that same morning."Dr Hill can't come today, so we have to go to the hospital." He informed, keeping his eyes downcasted. Things had been awkward between them since the day he indirected rejected her. In all honesty, she missed him. His face, his voice, his smile, his shabby cooking which she always ate without any complains. She would feel so overwhelmed by his efforts that his bland food did not bother her. She was happy, just by looking at him. His mere presence bought her unexplainable joy.However, now things were not the same as before. The person who provided her comfort, was acting like a complete stranger. And it was all her fault. She was convinced that it was a huge mistake on her side to confess his her feelings when she knew she would get rejected. 'Bu
