"Nothing in the world could bring us down. Now we're so high among the stars without a worry and neither one, one of us wants to say we're sorry. I'd rather be anywhere, anywhere but here," Good Years, Zayn

Ever since Nishan got that phone call, he had been acting so different.

He said that everything was funny, but it was pretty obvious that things weren't fine, with the way that he was snapping at everyone around him, including me. He just started acting more aggressive and angrier, not wanting to spend time with me or Noelani. I was a little hurt, I admit, but even if this was his way of lashing out because he couldn't control his emotions, he shouldn't take it out on this little baby.

Especially when he was the one who said that he wanted to create this family.

"It appears Master Nishan has got himself into a funk," Michael slunk in from the hallway as I was cleaning up one of the sitting rooms. "Locking himself away in that estate of his." He sighed and I shook my head, trying to wrap my head around what had happened. "I know he had said that he was relieved of his job because of the evidence they have against him, but it doesn't make any sense."

I wanted to ask Nishan more about the case, but he wouldn't even give me the time of day. Talk about mood swings. "Hey Michael, would you know anything about that case that Nishan was on five years ago?" It was worth a shot because as much as a dick he was acting, I wanted to try to help him. "Yes," Michael nodded as he leaned against the counter, recalling the past. "Nishan was a rookie along with his partner, Diego Tatum, and they were put on this case to try to figure out who was killing all of these business moguls in San Antonio. I mean, there were at least 15 well-known people dead," I nodded, recalling Alonzo Hasashi, who was on his way to becoming a Fortune 500 CEO.

"It turned out that these moguls were involved in shady business behind the scenes. They were often embezzling money for the mafia for even higher profit, scamming money from customers' bank accounts and using them for other resources that weren't stated in the contract, things like that," Michael explained. "Well, once word got out that they were involved in these things, they were slowly becoming bankrupt, unable to pay back their debt to the mafia, they were eliminated. All Nishan did was catch those four leaders of the mafia," Michael summarized as specific as he could.

"One night, he thought that he had a lead on the 5th leader, but it turned out that it was only con information and he was stabbed in the stomach by someone, he doesn't know who. He had to go off of the case for a few months to heal and the assailant was never found. He realized that his partner never came to visit him and when he came back from healing to a higher position, he was told that his partner left the state for good," That seemed a little suspect to me. "Then how come he wasn't suspected?"

Michael shrugged. 

"No one knows," I nodded, knowing that I was going to try to dig into this a little further. My nosy ass couldn't help it. "Do you mind seeing if you could get the footage from the camera at the gate from the day that package was delivered?" I inquired sweetly and Michael nodded, raising a brow. "I can do so," He said as Eve Lawrence in all her glory sauntered into the room. "Hello my loves," She seemed pretty perky today and I was kind of glad to see that attitude on her, compared to a certain brooding man 400 feet away.

"Hey Ezra," Eve spoke to get my attention and I turned to her, dusting my hands off on my apron. "I know that you graduate at the end of the semester, so I wanted to offer you a part-time job working in Nishan's estate," She winked, giving some whole new meaning to what she just said. "I mean, you can always come and visit us. I'll always make time for my son-in-law," I blinked stupidly, registering what the fuck she just said to me.
