Burning Pain

Today has been a long, stressful day for Tasha. She came out of the nurses’ dressing room and stumbled into Jalyn. She looked down in frustration and discharged a deep breath because she loathed seeing her. Jalyn was a bone tied around Tasha's neck, and she always found her way to pick up a fight with Tasha. She fixed her eyes on the ground and walked past Jalyn. Jalyn snickered and pulled her back with her long hair, raising a question. "Where do you think you are going?" Tasha veered around to her, disgruntled. "What have I done today?" Jalyn folded her hand on her chest and let a vicious smile escape her mouth. "You are still asking me what you did?" She clapped her hand and hit Tasha on the chest, challengingly. "You are a husband snatcher!" Tasha withered her face and sighed. She hated all the petty fights Jalyn always engaged her in. "Jalyn, please stop." Jalyn turned her face to the left a little and scoffed. She hit Tasha again, challenging her. "If I don't stop, what w

A man saw Tasha at the roadside and helped her. He drove her to her street entrance, and she got out of the car. "Thank you." She bowed her head in gratitude. She walked slowly until she reached home. She started taking her clothes off from the parlour until she went into the bedroom. She flung the clothes on the bed and went straight into the bathroom. She opened the shower and stood in it for a few minutes. She felt relaxed and her body cooled down a little. The memory of what Talon did visualize in her face and she sighed. She brushed her hands through her hair and relied on her body on the wall. She closed her eyes and opened them. She turned off the tap and went out to the bedroom. She sat down on the bed and picked up her phone. She wanted to dial a number saved with "the best", but she stopped and looked at the screen for seconds. "I shouldn't call him." She pressed the back button. "I hope you are fine, Talon. I am sorry if I have caused you pain." She put her phon

Tasha saw the hospital main entrance gate from afar, and thunder rattled in her heart. She closed her eyes as her heart pounded at its highest rate. The cab arrived at the hospital, and she got down. ‘Calm down, Tasha. It’s fine. You are going inside to meet the same Talon you have always known.’ She placed her hand on her chest and breathed deeply. She closed her eyes, opened it, and walked into the hospital. Immediately she entered the hospital, Talon’s car caught her attention and her heart rambled in another version of fear. "I did nothing wrong. If anyone should panic, it should be him." She walked into the hospital and stumbled onto Jalyn at the entrance. "Good morning." She greeted Jalyn. Jalyn clapped her hands, snickering, "you always avoid me. Why are you talking to me first today?" Tasha didn’t want to argue. She sighed and walked past her, but Jalyn drew her back with her hair. Jalyn scanned her from head to toe, toe to head, and walked round her. She got to her f

"Tasha, pick your call, please, pick it…"Malachi was sitting on the balcony, unrest. He was sweating profusely and his body was shaking. He kept trying Tasha's number, but she didn't pick it, and that made him more worried.He blew air with his mouth, and stood up on his feet to make a move, and as he took a step forward, he raised his head, and he saw her coming from afar.He dropped his phone on the chair and ran downstairs.At the same time Tasha wanted to open the gate, he also opened the gate, and Tasha was a little scared. She moved back a little, placing her hand on her chest in a shocked tone. “Hun?!”He stared at her densely, and she moved closer. She eyed him, but because he said nothing, and was standing at a single spot, she moved closer to him, asking, “what’s wrong with you?”He didn’t answer, and she continued asking, “what’s wrong?”He suddenly blinked his eyes, shook his head, and hugged her tightly in a long seeking manner. “Where have you been?”She raised her eyeb

Tasha had a sleepless night, trying to solve the theory that the anonymous helper created in her head, but she wasn’t able to give herself a satisfying answer. A part of her mind kept telling her it could be Malachi, and a part convinced her it was Talon. But was troubled her head most was the possibility that it could be Doctor Harvey.“If it’s him, where do I know him? Where did he know me?”“Why did he help me? Did someone send him?”She kept asking herself questions that only Doctor Harvey could answer.After he gave her the note, she ran after him, but didn’t catch up with him. She constantly checked him in the office, but he wasn’t around. Even though she suspected he was around, but was merely running away from her.When she was opportune to stumbled onto him in the morning, he used an emergency as an excuse, and used the back exit to ran away, and after waiting for him to come two hours later, she found out he has gone home, and wouldn’t come back till the next day, if possibl
