"You know, I'm starting to believe there's a nurse here you're having a kinky relationship with." Her heels were tapping at my feet. I raised my head and looked into Haliya's scowling face.

She tilted her head to the side, popped her gum and waited. "Well?" She gestured impatiently. "What do you have to say for yourself?"

"She's going to live, Liya. The doctors say she's going to live."

She wasn't impressed. "In the meantime, where will you live?"

I deflated.

Our house, the one my grandfather had given us had recently been seized. I literally had no place to go.

"I... I'll figure something out." I looked at the phone in my hand, fumbled with it. My hands wouldn't stop shaking and my lungs were inflated balloons. "I called my dad. I couldn't get to him. Left a message instead."

Her eyes bulged. "What?!"

"He's a busy man."

"His wife is dying!"

"Ex-wife."

"His son is homeless!"

"He'll get back to me."

"Are you fucking listening to yourself."

I fell apart. "I can't-" swallowed back a cry. "I can't think about that, now. I'm out of options. I'm barely hanging on. I just... I can't think of anything that's wrong right now. Something is finally going right and I don't want to poison that. Please, understand me, Haliya."

She looked at me, folded her hands and made an angry noise at the back of her throat. "You know you have to come live with us now, right?"

I avoided her gaze, embarrassment, burning my cheeks and the tips of my ears. "I don't want to bother you guys anymore. You've already done enough. "

Initially, her parents, who had a huge influence in the media had tried to stop the news from spreading. The news got out in the end, but at least, they had tried their best. I didn't even want to think about her mum that was organizing detectives to carry out investigations on the damaged buildings and find out the cause.

"It's our choice to make," She said, finally.

"I can't stay with you guys."

She laughed dryly. "Don't be cute, DeAngeles. It's very nauseating to me." Turned on her heels and started walking away briskly. "If you don't catch up in the next five seconds, I'm hauling your stupid ass into my car."

"Amir's very worried about you, Kam." She threw the statement into the air and waited for me to take the bait as she navigated her way into the Sanusi mansion driveway.
