Ethan smiled suddenly . Everyone is happy . Even Rio and Cherry was living a satisfying relations.h.i.+p . Seems like everyone was redeeming the time they have lost for their love ones .

For Les, Ethan decided to take him as his new personal driver . But Mr . Tanner continued to be their family driver--- Eli"s personal driver to be exact . And right now, he is flirting with Jane, the lady who helped Aisha escaped from the prison bars during that time . Jane was of great help for Aisha and so Cherry decided to take her in .

Cherry was sure that if Aisha is alive, then she will do the same thing she did . Rio and Cherry decided to adopt the young lad . Uhm, how old was she again, 16 or 17? Not sure too . Jane was a jolly girl and her foster parents are happy to have her .


Ethan was looking at everyone who appears to be contentedly getting together . The yearly commemoration for Aisha now seems to be a reunion for everyone . was he the only one who"s not enjoying the night? he sighed .

But what if Aisha didn"t die that day? what could she be doing? What does their baby look like? How happy could she be with her friends right now? She died not knowing the truth about her true ident.i.ty . It was the worst thing ever for someone to die carrying some lies .

After a few hours, his phone ringed . He glanced at the caller id and saw his grandpa calling him .

"How is the new construction going?" the old man asked .

"It"s doing good . I will be visiting the site tomorrow to check the progress . " He replied .

"Okay, good . you can drop Eli tomorrow in my place if you will be staying there for a few days . "

"I will . " He a.s.sured the old man then hung up . As soon as the call ended, he went to where Cherry and Rio was and bid them goodbye . He needs to prepare for his business trip tomorrow .

Eli bid farewell as well . he is now a grown-up man, 8 years old to be exact and that they are attending a private school with Sahaya and Yohann . Their friends.h.i.+p is kinda amazing and Ethan was thankful that Eli has someone on his side .

It was thirty minutes to be exact before they have reached the house . Eli was sleeping soundly at the backseat so Ethan carried him to his room . as soon as the young man settled on his bed, Ethan went to his room as well .

He was changing clothes when he accidentally glanced at Aisha"s photo, it was their photo together .

Then he picked it up and sat on the edge of the bed . His fingers trace the woman"s face and tears started to gush out from his eyes .

Aisha… he muttered as pain started to saturate his heart was again .

"I"m sorry… I"m truly sorry . please forgive me . " he cried . Unknown to him, a young child was hiding from a corner watching and listening at the man"s agonizing cries . He shed a tear as well . he doesn"t want to his dad crying in despair as he blames himself for the woman"s death .

The young lad run back towards his room and closed the door . He cried silently as he remembers the memories of her mother . But he was crying more because his father was sadder than anyone in the world .

He was embracing his knees as tears flows from his eyes . but after a few minutes, he wiped his tears and uttered a sincere prayer .

"Lord, my dad is miserable because you took my mom away . Please Lord, please, comfort my dad and make him happy . Please don"t make him cry anymore . I feel sad when dad is sad . Please Lord, make my dad happy again . " After his short prayer, he went back to sleep .

Unknown to him, Ethan heard the young lad . He was supposed to go to the kitchen to fetch a drinking water when he heard the young man"s sob, so he opened the door to check on him . surprisingly, he heard Eli"s prayer .

he was in daze while walking towards the kitchen . Does Eli notice him? he felt guilty . As soon as he went back to his room, he stood up near the window and looked at the sky above .

"Looks like Eli was greatly affected on my behavior . I didn"t notice it because I was so consumed with my sorrow . I"m sorry Aisha, you will probably get mad at me once you see how irresponsible I am with him . " then he released a sigh .

"I guess I really have to move on . I don"t mean to forget all about you but I will try to live a fulfilling life . I will try to be happy just like everyone else . I will try, Aisha… I will try . "

It was exactly a two hours" flight .

Ethan has to visit the Estrella City to check on their new building project and will be meeting a few investors during his stay .

The hotel manager had been waiting for Ethan outside the airport and as soon as he spotted him, he opened the car"s door after greeting him . then the hotel manager cued the driver to start the engine .

The hotel manager was following behind Ethan . The employees greeted him but he casually looked at them . he was sure cold and distant just like the rumors says he is . He knew about all those s.h.i.+tty comments but he doesn"t care at all .

He was on the other line when the door to the elevator opened . He casually entered and heedlessly punched the 10th floor .

His eyes widened and his jaw dropped in shocked . It was as if his world was in slow motion while the door to the elevator slowly closed .

His world suddenly stopped spinning around .

That woman! she looks entirely like … . Aisha?!
