1 She is dead

Luke POV

Alarm was ringing non stop . The daylight contacted my face feeling of tranquility, a harmony that welcomed itself into the spirit and made itself at home, and my eyes slowly opened as I saw her obscured reflection .

"Kiara" i said and opened my eyes swiftly

Again dream

I was still in love with her. so in love that she was always in my mind and saw her everywhere.

smashing the snooze button as hard as I possibly could and, ventured out from the cover, scrubbed down and dressed myself for work.

The elevator door opened everybody yelling like a gathering was in full sprout, which made me enraged. I made a sound as if to speak, my one look was sufficient to drive my point,In my office the atmosphere of tension had become so severe and pervasive that one could barely see more than a few feet in any direction. they all went to their cubical's . I ventured into my office and my phone picked the exact time to ring.It was James I didn't get a time to talk with my family much aside from Scott.

"Good morning, brother" I sat on my chair.

"Good morning Luke, if you are not busy can we talk, make yourself free,will ya?" He said and that made me inquisitive he sound serious and worried

"Yeah I'm free, what is it??" I said rapidly.

"Mother isn't well and Scott is graduating tomorrow, I need you to be here with us for our mom, she's missing you severely." he said. I remained calm for some time and afterward replied.

"Definitely! Why not, mom and all of you come and visit me here in London,it will make her feel good too with all the new environment and stuff "I said

He sighed.

"Luke,it has been a long time since you left home, wouldn't you have to return to us and start living here again ? I know it is difficult for you however, despite everything and living like a recluse won't help". He said, the sigh that came from me was a sign, not of my determination leaving but of the level my pressure had reached.

"See, I think the time has come, Scott should control over the organization but he is still careless. He needs somebody. Somebody who can prepare him and help him ." there was tiredness in his voice

My secretary accompanied an espresso which I was dependent on and I grinned towards her with a gesture. . "He only listens to you but, I won't force you but please Once, if you don't feel right i'll not force you anymore . OK" he said

"Alright I'll see."I replied

Me and my brother had a Construction business he took care of in America which was our main hub ( center point) and I dealt with it here in London. He is a CEO of the organization and I'm a Co CEO.

I had been pacing back and forth like a caged tiger in my office Don't they know? It's not easy taking a step forward when you don't know where your foot will fall.All the reasons not to do this come flooding in,I feel the soft panic that can grow or fade. It will fade if I back away, but then I have to do this not know then later then why not face it now? What's more, I figure he was right its time for Scott to take over and he is not in James control. That is it. I won't remain there more than seven days yes seven day is enough to guide him otherwise It will be very difficult for me.

I call my secretary to book my trip for Rochester and dropped every one of my gatherings and arrangements for the week .

*******************

In the warm breeze of July, yet I'm shaking. If I'd stayed up all night it would have made no difference to my exhaustion i was waiting for the car at Rochester airport to pick me soon my driver was waving.

The road was a smooth black river, the sort wheels float so effortlessly along. And so as our car made its steady way along, suddenly I jarred out and asked the driver to stop the car as I gazed at the exact spot that took everything from me. heading out of the car and steadily took the steps on the place, a yellow light flash on my face ambulance light i looked down and there was a man holding a body and shouting for help his face has some bruises the women in his arm is not moving. The man was me.

I was holding Kiara's body as she was battling with her final gasp , I saw people assembling around me calling for ambulance. "Kiara ! don't close your eyes. ambulance is here " I was crying and crying unconscious of everything else. I was not in a state to center around myself, I was in so much torment and stressed for Kiara that I didn't understand how much damage my body has taken. I was alive however Kiara was not going to be for long.

"Luke, please forgive me I'm s-sorry don't hate me" ,she said. Her face was full with bruises and her hand was all over " Kiara don't say that. I love you, and don't stress ,you will be fine.". I burst into tears while embracing her " Luke" I glance at her ," I love you", with that she took her final gasp and left me all cold into this world . stretcher was placed in front of her yet she was at that point gone, her body was still in my arms. I didn't understand when everything got foggy and I fell on the ground.

"Sir" someone shook my shoulder i jarred out of my thought then i turned towards the ambulance but there was no ambulance no people not me and not her. it was a memory a painful memory which took me back to horrible time.

I snap out of the bitter memories and head back to the car and to head home.

************

I arrived at my house. the music was so loud that it made my skin tingle and my lungs feel like mush, the party was going on and I vaguely remembered Scott has thrown it, it's unquestionably his graduation party completing his MBA from Harvard is pretty big deal .

I don't know where the gathering was really happening. I saw cars stopped outside and heard music only. I strolled towards the house however a voice halted me. The voice which had been hunting me from numerous years "Excuse me. where is party happening?

I turned but lost all the capacity to talk. Since my body and my cerebrum declined to enroll what my eyes were beholding..I was certainly going insane.Words left me. I stared into those brown eyes and my heart fell silent my mind was blank and my eyes wide as I stared at her in horror. Her eyes desperately searched mine... waiting. I had to say something!

"kiara"
