-...I know. Check in at the reception. Tell them I sent you. Have him call me if you may, get the key to my room.
-What? Why am I stealing stuffs from you and making it seems obvious?
-There's an envelope on the bed or inside the wardrobe. Take it and call.

-You think you're making an example here? Holding onto a worthless oath or something?
-...
-All these, these situations, this shredded skin and broken bones. The files in that envelope must be worth it.
-...

-I was supposed to be having a peace of mind here. Trying to forget, to find a way to forgive and..whatever. Let's get inside; we're here.
We took a taxi on the way to my place. My ungrateful little official cousin or that thief wasn't moving much without me. So I took the liberty of helping him out until I put him up with HQ.
-(Phone Rings)
-Yes? What's going on?
-I've got your envelope. But it looks opened though.
-Why weren't you picking up earlier when I called? Numbers of times maybe?
-Maybe being old is taking a toll on both of you and Jerry. You seem to be forgetting that I am not used to just casually sneak in people's places like some skilled burglar.
-Well that's why I have the keys handed over to you, right? Anyway enough of that. Keep the file and get out.
-That's pretty lame way to thank someone, specially when the present is torn up.
-I'll bring some flowers for you alright, now get back to Jerry. Give him a call and don't mention this to him. Got it?
-...
-Layla? Say it.
-Okay...okay. But you're gonna have to promise that I am not being shut off if this, this thing of yours gets serious.
-Yeah we'll see. I'll catch you two later. Don't start doing any stupid stuffs. You've got a kid in there.
-Screw you Sel.
-(Chuckles)Call after you get home.

So with the help of some guys from the hotel I was able to get my guy into my room. Receptionist confirmed Layla had left. I was relieved to know. When everything was clear, I tried my luck again...
-So this is my temporary place where I throw up and feel sick about my miserable life. You may question what I am saying but(sighs) it's what it is.
-...
-I see(big exhale). Come on. Get up...
.
.
.
-(Sighs)I think that's gotta do it. Comfy? You must be hungry, let's see.
-...(Makes an effort to get the water bottle)
-Here!
-(Takes the bottle)
-You know you could ask me. Since I am officially your older cousin or sister, whatever you call it l am here. Grew up looking after kids. Anyway, foods will be here in a few.
-...
-I've asked them to look after you for tonight. Medicine details will be handled by them.
-...
-I won't be back tonight, so feel free to eat, sleep...search through the room. Whatever suits you.
-Do you play Ms. Selina? It would be a pleasure to listen to a beautiful woman.
-(Chuckles)...I don't. No. Anything else?
I ask you to ignore small mistakes made here.
Also releasing chapters on a routine basis timer is not easy for me. So expect delays.
Suggestions are always good. If you have any, share.
