I can hear My heart pounding in my chest, ready to leave its cavity, The worst part about it?

Its not because the car I'm driving is speeding and skidding down the corners of each roads with no care about my safety. It's because of Ziana's words that stick to my brain like a bad virus.

How she didn't want me to leave, how her eyes almost teared up at the thought of me being hurt, how worry filled her face at the thought of me being injured.

She cares for you, someone cares for you for more than just the money.. for you.

My stomach did another one of its horrible turns making me groan. This is the exact reason why i never wanted to be married. Why i never wanted feelings involved.

Because i was so worried about her catching feelings for me that i never thought about the possibility of it happening the other way around.

Her face.. her dark eyes that were yet full of light. Her full lips, brown and plump poking out asking to be enticed. Her shape was calling m-

I am snapped back to my reality by the screech of the wheels on the road and a few cars beeping their horns at me.

Damn Ziana, what are you doing to me?

"Can you read me, Chief Miller?" I hold my speaker button down and a beep follows it,

"I read you, Whats the status of the investigation so far?" I ask while getting a hold onto the wheel again, making sure i dont crash the car before i get to the place at all.

"Will you be safe?! What if something happens to you?Will you come back? Are you going to leave me here? Zianas voice plays in my head as a whisper.. i shake my head to try and focus on the radio..

"Officer Smith and Officer Harvey are now at the hospital with both victims consulting with the female as she seems to be in more stable condition than the male."

"Do we have any information about these people who are they? Where are they from? Do they have any connections to white? How did the argument arise? We need some more information." I cut the call on the button,

"Copy that Chief. I will send the information to the officers at the hospital and inform them to press the victim about this." She ends the line as i turn on my siren and watch as the cars part the middle of the road like the red sea and I'm Moses.

I speed through the middle of the cars ignoring the fact that my heart has now dropped from its cavity to my stomach and has probably dropped to my seat. I look either way of me trying to find where the location is.

I take a sharp turn to the left beeping my horn aggressively at a car that refuses to move out of the way, i swerve at the side of it feeling the back wheel skid on the path. I can hear the other police car speed to the house on the other side of the road,

5 quick minutes of me playing the fast and furious on the road i make it to the house. I jump out the car securing my gun in my pocket tightly, The car slams behind me as i lock it down before striding up to officer Kai who is standing with his hands in his pockets.
