ADAMSEN
It hurts watching Mahira love someone else. She doesn't say it but deep down she yearns for
him. Well I guess I have to help her realize that. We were on a coffee date which she arranged.
'I'm so happy. Everything is finally going according to plan. Elena is in university, Angelo and
Alexander are happy and Kaashvi is back in Korea. She is getting married in a few months to
Mark.'
'Everyone is happy but are you? Thane really loves you. I agree he hurt you but he's willing to
atone for his mistakes.'
'I didn't expect that from you. Shouldn't you be trying to win me over.'
'You're right, but it's impossible. I've accepted that you could never possibly love me.'
She smiled then looked down to focus on her cup of coffee. We sat in silence as I observed her.
She was simply breathtaking. Her eyes looked like stars when they were under the light of her
son, her skin was flawless and her smile, god her smile melted my heart everytime.
Mahira's phone rang. She set down her cup and took her phone.
'Hello sergeant. To what do I owe your sudden call?'
I couldn't hear what the person on the call was saying.
'What?!!'
Mahi stood up and grabbed the car keys. I followed her to the car and got in the front seat, no
questions asked. She pulled up at the Private St Marie's hospital. She got out of the car and ran
inside, leaving me behind.
Seriously.
Please forgive me for this betrayal Mahi but im doing it for you. It's the only way I can help you
find your happiness, please forgive me. MAHIRA
His condition was terrible. His whole face was bandaged , only his eyes were visible. His leg
was stitched and his upper body was just bandaged.
I guess he wouldn't be able to speak to me. I sat next to him and held his hand. No one at home
knew about Thane's condition. I didn't tell the kids I just left them with Adamsen. If I told them
they would have stressed out.
I visited the hospital daily to see him. I sometimes sleep in the hospital.
Being the only one who knew about his health only I could take care of him. I missed Kaashvi's
wedding and she was mad at me for missing the most important day of her life. Week's turned
to months and months to a year. Angelo and Alexander were angry when I missed their birthday.
Neither of them wanted to speak to me but it's okay I was doing it for Thane. Soon enough he
healed. His face looked better now but he had an ugly scar on his back.
He was discharged from the hospital. He still had to use a wheelchair though. When we got
home Angelo and Alexander finally understood why I missed so many celebrations.
I pushed Thane's wheelchair to the room.
'Now that I'm a cripple, you won't stay with a crippled man or even look at him will you?'
'What are you trying to say?'
'Adamsen is young, handsome, rich and not crippled like me, so you are going to move on with
him.'
I couldn't believe my ear's. What kind of a question was that? Does he think I'll leave him only
because he's crippled? I'll teach him a lesson.
So what if I don't want to be with a crippled person? Does it hurt? Let it hurt cause I don't want
to spend my life with a cripple. Imagine Mahira Riley being seen with a cripple.'
I instantly regretted saying that because I could see the hurt in his eyes.
'I, I didn't mean it, I'm sorry.'
'Don't be sorry, you're right.'
After saying that he went to bed. He struggled to get on the bed but he refused to accept my help. He fell asleep almost immediately. I couldn't resist the urge to kiss him. I kissed him in his sleep until I was satisfied. All mine.
You'll always belong to me Thane, always, till death does us part.
