Chapter 18- Accident

Voices. All she heard was different voices, they were a lot of people holding her body. Then it stopped, all the aching finally stopped. Her eyes opened just to be faced with a lot of light, "Holy crap Mariyah I was worried." Devonte said as he stood up from a seat beside the hospital bed. "I- what happened." she asked as she tried to stand and then Devin walked in "Thank goodness you're alive." he said happily, this was someone she just fought with and now he was smiling at her . "Rest Mariyah, I'll get the doctor now." and with that Devonte left the room leaving her and Devin alone. "To be honest with you, I was extremely worried when I heard the news.I rushed here as quick as a could but Devonte was already here, holding your hands and for once in a life time he looked sad." he said . "Why are you telling me this??" she asked. "I can see how much he cares for you and I'm jealous cus I also find you attractive." he smirked. Mariyah jumped back on her bed. " I'm taken you pervert!" she screamed at him .

The door opened and Devonte walked in, anger on his face. The doctor went to Mariyah and started examining her when she looked up she sad that Devin and Devonte were gone. 'What the heck!' she thought inwardly. In a few days, Mariyah got released from the hospital she stayed at home because Devont insisted that she shouldn't work and she honestly thought life was extreme boring during that period until she was finally allowed to come back to work.

She walked to the office like a child and smiled once she saw Devonte's face, he was on a phone call when she entered so she just sat down and stared at the computer, she was waiting for the long call to end but it didn't it went on for like 30 more minutes before it ended. Devonte looked stressed as he put down his phone. "Are you okay?" she asked, she was worried at the way his face looked. "Mariyah I'm sorry for putting you into trouble. I caused that accident. " he said while looking at her with an unfathomable expression. What did he mean? "No you didn't, it just happened and luckily I survived." she smiled at him but he looked dead serious, he wasn't joking. "Mariyah, if we are going to continue this relationship you have to come to my house for your safety." he as be started to type on the computer. "Fine , I'll do it. I'll go there tomorrow." she said determined to make their relationship work. " You really want to be in a relationship with me huh?" he smirked at her. Mariyah kept quiet, he was doing it again!

"Just come today after work." he said and wit that the day ended being quite boring and Devonte was acting weird throughout the day.

After work she called Yuri and Max, she told them she would start living with her boyfriend . Yuri was happy but Max was sad, really really sad. She ignored him, packed her stuff and made her way to the mansion.
