Our question and answer session ended with an enlightening sentence from him: Doctor Merlin got up from his seat to call Sean back to join us.“Are you guys done?”Sean asked as he sat down next to me again; he took one of my hands and intertwined our fingers. He looked at me and then at Merlin’s doctor for an answer.“Yes, it seems so, I look forward to the next consultation session.” Doctor Merlin smiled.“Okay I’ll come next week.”“Not with you, but with Ariana,” said Doctor Merlin quickly. Sean looked surprised, then he pouted; I smiled happily, and I looked at Sean with my ‘you-calm-all-everything-will-alright’ look, and he looked at me with an understanding look. We left the doctor’s office, Merlin, after shaking hands and saying goodbye to the man.Sean seemed to talk to Sam before they followed me into the car. Sam was seen wearing a handsfree on his ear as we left Merlin’s house and doctor’s office.“What did Doctor Merlin say?”Sean looked curious; I glanced at Sam with a w

While I tried to sleep and not wait for Sean, my mind wouldn’t stop conjuring disturbing thoughts. I glanced at the digital alarm clock on the nightstand; it would soon be midnight, and Sean had no sign of his whereabouts. I got out of bed and left the room; it was dark, and only the light from outside the balcony lit up the living room and living room. I walked in anxiously; then, I heard the sound of liquid pouring into a container from the direction of the bar. When I approached the bar to check if anyone was there, Sean sat at the bar counter with a half bottle of bourbon left and a shot glass filled with the damned drink. I looked at him with guilt; the smell of alcohol wafted from his direction, making me nauseous and a little dizzy. How much did he drink??! Was my fault this serious to make him drink and get drunk?? I twisted my fingers in front of my body, this guilt slowly killing me.“I’m sorry,” I said tremblingly; I didn’t mean to hurt him. Silence stretched between us, to

We were getting ready for Caroline and Andrew’s engagement party by late afternoon. Sean wore a black tuxedo with a cut vest on the inside covering his white linen long-sleeve shirt; his black bow tie completed his look that could bewitch all women worldwide and the other world. In contrast, I wore a long-sleeved black satin dress with cleavage. It’s low V-shaped, and there’s a reasonably long slit at the bottom to reveal thigh to toe when I purposely expose it. I wanted to cover the Hermes belt on my wrist, and this dress did a great job.I gathered my long hair, then piled it neatly behind my head, letting a few strands of my hair cut shorter than others fall down the sides of my face. I wouldn’t say I like to linger in dressing up; after being satisfied with the work on my face, I got up from the dressing table. I looked at Sean, who was standing near the bed. He was putting on his silver cuffs.“Need help, big guy?” I offered, then he turned to look at me, and he just stood there,

I leaned my back on the pillow behind my body. I seemed exhausted, and I needed a sugar intake to get rid of this fatigue. I grabbed my cell phone on the nightstand beside me; there were several notifications from my What's Up application and chats from Caroline, Benjamin, and Ariel(?) I refreshed my memory; I never gave him my contact; I shrugged my shoulders to ward off my unimportant curiosity. I replied to a chat from Caroline, who whined at me to give the gift I had prepared for her immediately. Still, I promised to give it to her on her wedding day, which will be held in two weeks. Then, I chatted with Benjamin; the man asked how I was and wanted to meet me on Wednesday. I had to see my schedule for that day; the chat from Ariel contained the same request as Benjamin's, so I decided not to give him an uncertain answer. I checked my email after sending replies to the three people, and an email from Orchid HSM sent my teaching schedule starting tomorrow at 8 a.m. in vocal class. S

I know he won’t stay still; I’m hoping for a miracle here.“Reunion with my management friends first,” I replied with a wary attitude. I glanced at Sean; he was still focused on his tablet, but I knew his attention was entirely on this topic.“Tomorrow I have to go to Germany for three days, and don’t go anywhere while I’m not here.”Oh no! He will start with his prison warden mode.“I need to go out with my friends.” I started, he can’t be overprotective like this; I could die young later. My senses looked at me with an approving look.“Don’t argue, Ana, you’re not safe after the attack and you want to roam freely, I don’t want anything to happen to you.”Oh my God, I wasn’t even here when it happened; why is he always thinking too far??“There’s Caroline there too.”“Caroline almost fell victim to that attack.”Oh, shit! My freedom is on the brink; I chuckle angrily and fold my arms under my breasts. He’ll be gone for three days, and he won’t know I’m gone; my senses smiled slyly wh
