Aisha didn"t know that she fell asleep. It"s seems like she had a dream that Ethan kissed her lips earlier. well, if this is a dream, she never wanted to wake up. But she woke up and she hates it!Who the h.e.l.l wake her up?! She heard a knock. Once, twice and thrice! She doesn"t want to wake up. She just wants to stay right beside Ethan.
She lazily stood up and head to the door. She slowly opened it.
"Who is it ----"" her eyes grew seeing the person before her. she pursed her lips in anger.
"What do you think are you doing in here?" She is irritated.
"I came to visit a friend." The woman casually answered.
"Then you are at the wrong room." Aisha was about to closed the door but Sherry Gray stopped her. Aisha glared at her.
"Please." Her eyes were fixed to hers. Aisha clenched her teeth. as if she has a choice.
She let her in. Sherry was looking at Ethan as if she is examining him from head to toe. Aisha was looking at her at the corner. What a pretentious woman! she scoffed.
"I"m truly sorry that this had happened." Sherry faced the lady dress in a hospital gown.
"You should!" Sherry was shocked to hear her response.
"Ms. Stacy, I hope you are not viewing me and my husband as the culprit of what happened to you and to your husb---""
"But I am. You did it, right?" Aisha interrupted with sarcasm. Sherry gulped.
"I don"t have any ill-intention towards you or your husband. I hope you will believe that."
"But your husband does." Aisha crossed her arms.
"Do you have any evidence?"
"Sherry Gray, are you blind or what? your husband"s att.i.tude towards us last night, wanting to dethrone and rob my husband in his own company and in front of the crowd--- how do you call that?"
"That"s absurd! He might be harsh sometimes but he is not a murderer!" now sherry was irritated.
"Heh!" Aisha sneered. "Seems like you don"t know your husband very well, Ms. Gray."
"You don"t know what you are saying Ms. Williams! Don"t just accuse us of things that you haven"t proven it yet."
"I saw you and your husband last night, looking at the sniper"s location. too bad I got shot. If not, I should have caught that guy."
Sherry"s eyes grew. Indeed, his husband was acting strange last night that"s why she looks at where he was looking but she didn"t see anyone.
"Shut up! My husband is not a murderer!" she insisted.
"Wish as hard as you can Sherry Gray. Cause if I found out that you and your husband has something to with this, I swear, I will make you pay with your own life!" she threatened.
They were glaring at each other. It was the scenario that Caleb, Lisa and Eli saw when they opened the door.
"You can hide as hard as you can but I"m telling you, I will find the truth. You hurt my family? I"ll take yours!"
"Are you threatening me? Ms. Williams?"
"Is that already a threat to you? Cause I"m telling you, it"s just my advice for you and for your husband." She smirked.
"Unfortunately I am not threatened Miss Williams. I don"t think that my husband has something to do with what happened last night. and I trust him!" she emphasized the word TRUST.
"I hope you"re right. But if I were you, I better do my own research."
Sherry curled her hands into a fist. She"s infuriated.
"And would you mind?" Aisha pointed the door.
Caleb and Lisa were peeking at the door when Aisha pointed to their direction.
"S-sorry to disturb you." Lisa forced a smile.
"Mom? you okay?" Aisha suddenly soften when she heard Eli.
"E-Eli?" Eli run towards her and embraced her knees. She knelt and kiss his head.
*** Sherry was rooted to where she was standing earlier. she was looking at the mother and son tandem. Ah, what a beautiful sight.
"Mom!" Sherry heard a little child running to meet her.
"Mom! Are we going to the park today?" The little child continued.
"Umma! Umma!" She heard another tiny voice approaching them. She can"t see their faces clearly. They were embracing her feet, one for each knees.
"Who is she? Is she grandma?" Eli suddenly asked when he parted from her mom"s embraced. He was looking at Sherry.
Sherry suddenly shuddered. She woke up from her momentarily stance.
"No, she"s not." She stood up as she held Eli"s hands. They walk towards Ethan.
"What"s happening in here?" they heard a familiar cold voice. They all look at the door"s entrance.
"Uncle Rio?" Caleb exclaimed. Rio"s eyes widened when he saw Sherry. What is she doing here? He thought. He also looked at Aisha who"s holding a child. She met his gaze.
"I"ll see myself out." Sherry bid farewell. She pa.s.sed through Rio. Aisha looked away when she saw Rio"s eyes followed Sherry outside the room. she sneered. Rio was able to see her scornful eyes. he lowered his head.
Will he go after Sherry or stay for his daughter- Aisha?
After a minute, the door of the room closed. She scoffed. Rio chose to chase Sherry. She felt a pang of pain in her heart.
"Mommy, will daddy going to be okay?" Eli sadly asked her mother who is now cuddling him.
"Yes sweetheart, daddy will be okay." she gave out a faint smile.
"Aisha, I bought some of your things so you can change you"re clothe." Lisa b.u.t.t in.
"Thank you."
"I also bought some food. Let"s have a lunch together?"
"I think that"s a good idea." She let out a force chuckle. "Thank you for watching Eli."
**She was walking fast. Now she regretted visiting the hospital. She never expected that woman to talk against her and Silver.
Then she remembered the things that she saw earlier. Was that her imagination? Memory or what? she"s not sure. Could it be that a particular memory from her past was triggered when she saw a similar scenario?
Well, maybe.
"Sherry Gray, wait!" she heard a male voice. Was he calling her? she didn"t care. She walked faster.
"Wait!" the man held her arm. She paused then looked behind her. she grasps when she remembered something.
"You!" she held her breath.
