(Hidden Feelings, Dead, Awake)
Without thinking twice, Alex ran to the burnt building and gasped loudly, and tears formed in his eyes immediately.
With burning eyeballs, he turned around to hit Adams with his fist hand and punch him in the face.
“You know I told you I have bad feeling about this whole plan. See what you caused. Just pray she doesn’t have a scratch on her body — what if she does”
Glory cut him off with her hands in akimbo. It’s not necessary for you to pull some act. We know your type. Very soon you will get your Justice” Glory smiled, signaling the police officer to come in. Alex sighed deeply staring at the half brunt building with regrets as water filled his eyes. Glory ran to the ambulance and shut the door of the van before running to her vehicle and trail the ambulance behind as it drove out of the compound with full speed.
The police officers weren’t stressed as the walked them to the police car.

Glory stood outside the ICU with one hope, one thought.
“God save them, God save Aurora, My brother can’t live without her. Kiara can’t do without her dad, God save my brother” The prayed in her mind as tears filled the corner of her eyes.
“Have you called your parents about what’s going on” Owen asked.
“No, have not, we don’t know Collins present condition, won’t you go home and take a rest because there’s no one that will look over the company in his absence” Glory said.
“Not when have not heard anything about his present condition. What’s taking so long” Owen panicked, leaning on the wall.
“Ma’am, hope Kiara is safe”Richard asked.
“She’s fine, with her nanny” Glory replied with a sad smile. Her smile disappear immediately when the doctor and nurses came out of the ICU.
“How are they?” She shuttered staring at the doctor.
The doctor facial expression wasn’t something she could predict. She almost feel like peeping in her pants.
“They are fine, just a small bruise on the female feet. Not much just minor, actually at her thumb. we just have to wait for them to wake up. Medically they should wake up by 7:00 am in the morning but it might take longer than that depends on their immune system. ” The doctor explained. Glory gasped loudly, touching her chest.

“I will be leaving in the next five minutes” Owen said, waking to the window and took a peep.
“Should I drive you home?” Richard asked.
“No. That’s going to be a disrespect to Mr Walter, you are his personal assistant, you are an employee same goes with me. You can drive Miss Glory home” Owen said, picking up his car key.
“Owen” Glory called.
“Yes” he responded, turning around.
“Do you have Aurora’s personal details, I forgot to get her contact info from Collins” Glory said calmly.
“Yeah, sure. But I don’t have her call contact. I will check it on the Company Staff File” Owen said.
“Do you have it with you at home” Glory asked.
“Yes, I have it. I will send it to you when I see hers. — Not hers though but her family’s contact line” Glory cut him as she further more in details. “I want them to know her whereabout”
“Oh! okay, I understand what you are trying to say, but I think we should wait till morning. You can’t call them in the middle of the night”Owen said with a yawn.
“Oh okay” she said with a nod.
“Watch after her in my absence” Owen whispered in Richards ear.
“I will sir” Richard answered.

Owen was already back at the hospital as early as possible. He collect the necessary files from the doctor and hand it over to Glory who wasn’t ready to leave her brother side.
“He’s going to be fine Glory” Owen assured.
“I’m just worried, he should be awake already” She mumbled not taking off her eyes her unconscious brother.
“I will go and check on Piper in case she’s awake.” Owen suggested and she nodded.
She moved back her gaze back at Collins…
On the other hand Piper was awake already not without having a long and strong headache. She gasped loudly after remembering how the whole building got burnt.
“Collins” She shuttered, looking around the room, trying to get a glimpse of his shadow in case he might be in the same room with her.
“I need to get Collins”she mumbled to herself as she made the attempt of getting down from the bed… A loud thud could be heard vividly and Owen ran inside because he was about to come in but his phone rang out of his pocket, he was about to pick up his phone unfortunately the loud thud from the room made in ran inside.
“Piper” Owen screamed, running to rush her up on her feet.
“Collins” were the only word she kept murmuring.
“He’s fine” Owen replied, sitting her on the bed.
“Can I see him ?” She asked almost close to tears.
“Yes, you can.” he replied with a soft smile.
With a soft groan, she tried to stand up on her feet but fell wobbly back to the bed.
“I will get a wheelchair, do that I can wheel you down to his private ward.” He replied and left shortly.
The door open shortly and Glory stood up on her feet immediately she saw Piper on the wheelchair.
“What happened to your feet?” She asked with concern.
“She’s fine, just need to rest her body that’s why” Owen replied.
