Now Beam was sitting in a awkward situation in front of Forth inside the car. Forth didn't say anything to break the silence . He just offered Beam a towel . Beam slowly accepted the towel. Beam bit his lip to control his inner turmoil. He didn't want to break down again in front of Forth just because he ignored Beam from past few months. Beam wanted to be strong at least in front of Forth.

Suddenly Beam realised the change of sceneries outside the car. “where are we going? ” Beam carefully asked. “Home” just a simple answered from the CEO.

Then it hit Beam that they were going to Forth's home. “Ca..can you please drop me here? I..I...want to g..go home. ”Beam bravely tried to request.

Forth just ignored Beam and focused on his tablet.

When they reached their destination Forth's maid show Beam his room and told him to fresh up. When Beam entered the bathroom he felt amaze by the big luxurious bathroom. The maid helped him to use the bathroom taps. Before when they were entering Forth's penthouse, he tried not stare at the luxurious things. Forth just left Beam in the middle of a luxurious room with a maid.

After Beam went out from the bathroom, he was given clean clothes, which for some reason perfectly fit in his frame.

The maid then gave him some light dinner and a glass of milk.

Beam couldn't understand Forth's action anymore . Beam felt tired by Forth's pull and push game. But he didn't dare to voice out his feelings.

‘ A car.... a little boy was running... Screaming ... Suddenly there were blood everywhere... ’ , “ You ...you killed him ... ” ‘then Beam was running without any destination.. Some scary looking men were chasing him.. Cursing him.. This time one man able to caught him... ’Beam was sweating profusely in his sleep and muttering “No... No.. ” unconsciously. Suddenly beam woke up from his nightmare. His throat felt dry. Then he realised that he was still in the Forth's penthouse house. After that Beam didn't sleep at all because he felt that if he closed his eyes then the nightmares would return again.

Next morning Forth just dropped Beam at the company without saying anything. Forth noticed his sleep deprived eyes but didn't comment anything.

In the lunch time Beam was cleaning the company's reception area. When suddenly people started whispering. Beam tried to find the source of people's curiosity , Beam saw a lady in a red dress. Judging from her appearance she must be some high class lady. Beam was yet to see the face of the lady. When finally Beam able to saw the lady's face, Beam felt confuse but when he remembered he felt all the color of his body drained from his body.

Beam instantly tried to hide himself among the crowd. His hands started sweating and a wave of nervousness hit him. He unconsciously started to shivering when the memories of his past started to haunt him which he buried in some corner of his memory.

“Wow! She doesn't look like that old ”, “oh! So she is his mother ”, “She looks like his sister ”,people started to whisper  among them. “who is the other lady? ”, “Maybe she is the girlfriend of the CEO”, then Noah noticed that there was another beautiful lady talking with some higher ups of the company.

“I know her. She is Super model Pring”someone commented. “you mean the rumoured girlfriend of the CEO ? ” one lady from the crowd asked back.

In that time Forth came out of the elevator and hugged his mother tenderly.
After that he also hugged Pring and then held her waist casually while walking towards the elevator with them.

Beam felt somewhere hurt in his heart when he saw Forth's lovely gaze towards Pring . Beam tried to swallow the bitter feeling.

Then suddenly Beam started to connect the dots. When he solved the puzzle in his mind he was beyond horrified.

If the son of that lady  was Forth then the little boy who haunted Beam in his nightmares had to be Forth. But it couldn't be him.. Right? Beam questioned himself. Because that  little boy was blind.
