His accident. How he wished to be alive in his last few hours of life and how he whispered ‘I love you’ when he was taking his last few breaths.
My heart sank and everything went silent. Tears started consuming my eyes and for a second, I started imagining being with Stefan in this car. He was passing me a bright smile and whispering something inaudible. He was going to leave me soon, forever. The only person who loved me despite of my look was going to leave me.
” Erica? You okay?” Stefan asked me.
I blinked tears away and held his hand. ” No, I am not.”
” What happened?” He whispered, softly.
” I don’t want you to leave me.” I added.
” Huh?” He raised his eyebrows in confusion.
” I don’t want to live without you, Stefan.” And this time, I burst out into tears.
” Oh..” He whispered.
My eyes started getting heavy and next I know was blackness consumed me.

A sharp headache hit me as I woke up. It had taken me few seconds to blink and realize that I was in my room. Relief washed over me but that wasn’t for too long. Suddenly Max’s face appeared and that was enough for me to loose it all again.
” What the fuck are you doing here, in my house?” I screamed.
He said nothing but held a concerned face which soon turned into anger.
” Why aren’t you taking your medications prescribed by Mayra?” He asked.
What’s exactly his problem? Why does he care about me taking medicines or not?
” I asked something, didn’t I?”
I rolled my eyes and decided to keep my mouth shut. I doesn’t owe him anything to answer his every questions.
And about medicines, I forgot to take them regularly.
” Get out of my house, right now.” I added, bluntly.
And how does he knows about my home? God! He’s more creeper than I think. I should do my best to avoid him like a plague.
” Your job or medicines?” He sat on the bed and passed me all my medicines along with a glass full of water.
I hate you, Max Costello. I fucking hate you!
You’re way worse than I’ve ever thought.
I gulped the medicines down my throat and without wasting a single second, I pointed towards the door. “Now get out from here.”
” Do you live here all alone?” He asked with a smile.
Pig.
“Get out, right now before I call the cops.”
He laughed a little. ” Sure, why not but do tell what are you gonna say that a sexy billionaire is in your house forcing you to take your medicines?”
I clicked my tongue in frustration.
” Look my headache is getting worse, so please do me a favour and leave.”
He stared at me for few seconds before deciding to get out of my house.
As he left, I took a deep breath.
