"Lay your head here" Haru said helping her get in bed. It's been two days since she's been discharged. Haru's been taking care of her himself. He tend to her every need as if he was her husband.

The amount of blood she lost and the number of months she spent in a coma had severe effects on her. She couldn't do anything on her own without assistance, but as usual he'd say it's alright.

More days went by and it summed up to a month. She was better, health wise. She was used to his mansion, the maids, gardeners and also his security guard. It felt like she was the missing chess piece to his board.

Words couldn't explain how much he felt attached to her right from the elevator incident that brought them together. He didn't need to see her face, he could tell she was a beautiful person.

"Meilin" He called walking towards her and she quickly turned to answer him. "Yes Haru?"

"Isn't it time to go to bed?"

she pouted "But I was really enjoying this soap opera" He lifted her up despite her wishes to seat down and do nothing but watch telenovelas.

"You can watch them tomorrow. Time to rest, it's doctor's orders."

He carried her to her bedroom and softly placed her on the bed before turning to leave.

"Hey Haru..." she whispered

"Huh?" He stopped in his tracks as he looked back at her "Thank you" his face reddened at her words and he gave an awkward remark "uh-huh sure..."

"Ai Jin" The female was walking frantically back and forth. She was worried, she was scared, she didn't want to lose Haru. She didn't want to lose him to someone that didn't matter much.

"Ai Jin" Bao called again. He got off the bed, tied a towel around his body and pulled her into a hug "Calm down okay." He kissed her cheek "For Bao" He cooed as he gently bit her earlobe.

"Bao...This is not the time okay" She tried to push him away but his grip around her was too tight "We just finished having the time of our lives, didn't you like it?"

She sighed "Bao, you're doing everything I'd want Haru to do to me" she took a seat in his l.a.p after he sat on the bed.

"Haru will come to you don't worry."

She got up "I need to go" He nodded in disappointment but he understood that she had a life outside their s.e.x.u.a.l relationship.

"Bye" He waved and she waved back at him before she left.

He laid back on his bed and placed his hands behind his head "Fuxk it!" He cussed for absolutely no reason and he grabbed his cigarette box and lit himself one.

"Meilin..." he puffed smoke as her images flashed in his head. "Why are you coming up in my head now?" He bit his lip in anger.

He sat up and pinched the bridge of his nose. It was too soon to start thinking about her especially when he just got back with Ai Jin.

"I still remember the day we first met Meilin. How eager we were to try new things, things we weren't supposed to do."

The memories played in his mind like it was some kind of tape. The fifteen year old Meilin he met in his neighborhood, precisely on his way back from school.

'*She's beautiful*' he thought as he passed by her. He still turned to look at her one more time but all he got was her back view. At least it was elegant.

He was her senior. She was just a highschool newbie, that was the name he used to tease every junior that he was acquainted with.

Meilin was one of them.

They both spent time together doing and watching naughty things. He didn't know who actually influenced who but he just loved the time and adoration he was gaining from their relationship.

Five years passed and they found themselves under the same roof as an official couple. They loved each other to the moon and far beyond but at some point the space between them was gradually increasing.

They argued, hit each other, yelled and would hurt themselves just to prove who was right and who was wrong.

Bao started gambling, he lost his job, lost his gifted properties and had nothing else to do. He became a nuisance to his wife.

He was quite aware but he didn't care. He went to bars a lot and had fights, made out with different women but kept it a secret.

The emotional pressure and stress led to Meilin's miscarriage. She was wounded deeply by the news but Bao didn't show any care. In fact, his attitude became worse.

As far as she knew, one day... he'd regret everything he's made her pass through all in the name of so called love.

"Divorce" he stressed the word as he lit himself another cigarette "That's what she wants right? I'd never do that. She's mine and only mine. I won't let anyone take her away from me no matter what."

Ai jin stood in front of Meilin tears in her eyes as she parted her lips to talk. They both locked themselves in the boardroom because they thought it would be safe to talk "I called you here to beg. Please leave my Haru Alone. You're married, be satisfied with who you have."
