UNSHED TEARS

Deon continued with the video game for about an hour before he got a call that his patient had arrived and so he had to leave.

Deon stepped out of the office and met Jane who was busy typing.

"Hey Jane" He greeted with his Charming smile.

Hearing that voice Jane raised her head and then saw his face and his ever so charming smile.

She stared at his face without a word as she struggled to bring out words from her mouth. Seeing his face and that smile left her dumbstruck.

"So handsome" she said and then sighed.

"Did you say something?" Deon asked.

"Uh... n... nothing sir" She said with a nervous voice. seeing him stare at her like that a blush crept up her cheeks.

Deon who didn't seem to notice it just smiled and then headed to the elevator.

.....

"Mr Walker, I must say I was shocked when I heard your proposal. I couldn't believe that you of all people would want to but shares from the hospital" Came the voice of Mr Donald.

After the board meeting Skyler had been surrounded with people, mostly the ones who were trying to get close to him for the sake of connection. He had been trying to find a way to escape so that he could find Aliya but the universe had other plans for him today.

"Well It is good to try new things, isn't it Mr Donald?" He asked with a voice that gave no room for a negative answer.

"Y..yes Mr Walker" The man then answered.

And before the man could bring up something else. Skyler interrupted him again.

"Mr Donald, I hope to see you and the rest of the team for dinner soon" Skyler said as he stood up.

"Of course Mr Walker" The man replied with assurance.

"Then I'll be on my leave now" He said with a smile plastered on his face. And then excited the room.

Mr Donald stared at the door in silence and sighed. This man was one of the most feared men in the country. He had made a name for himself, both in the underworld and in his profession.

He is known to be one of the best lawyers of the century. He had never lost a case in all his years of entering the courtroom and the reason was that he would always defend those who are being wronged. He would never accept a case when he already knows that it was fruitless.

And that was why many people were trying to buy this man, being acquainted with him was a honour. And although he was known for his calm aura only a few know what was under that smile.

.....

The sky was changing colours and cars could be seen on the highway. Aliya had just finished typing when she saw that it was already six pm. It was closing time already.

Aliya grabbed her laptop and her bag and then made her way towards her car. When she heard his voice.

"Aren't you joining us for dinner?" Came a voice from behind her.

Hearing his voice Aliya turned and then she saw him. He was still wearing his black suit from this morning but now two buttons had been open showing little of his fine chest.

The wind blew both their hair as they both stared at each other.

"I don't see how that is of your consign Mr Walker" Aliya said.

"If you were paying attention to the board meeting you should know that I am now with the highest shares of this hospital and that makes me your supervisor and as your supervisor I should know why you would not be coming to the dinner party I organised" Skyler retorted with anger this time He had organized the dinner party so he could get close to her and talk to her but now she was not going to attend.

"Well Mr Walker if you must know I already have plans for dinner" Aliya replied and was about to open her car when his hands hit to the sides of the car trapping her in between.

Skyler didn't know what happened but the thought of her having dinner with someone else was something that he couldn't bear. He was so pissed off right now.

"You will not go out with anyone for dinner, do you understand!!?" Skyler yelled through gritted teeth as he tried his best to keep calm.

Aliya felt her eyes starting to sting seeing him like this. She fought back the urge to hold him and instead fueled his anger.

"You may be my supervisor but that doesn't mean that you are allowed to tell me what to do and what not to do" Aliya replied him as she stared at his eyes.

Hearing her reply fueled his anger and he removed his hands and then punched the nearby wall shattering a few blocks and injuring his knuckles that continued to bleed.

"Fuck" He cursed under his breath. He was so angry right now and he couldn't control his emotions anymore.

Aliya just stared at him as she tried to hide the emotions in her eyes and her urges. Seeing him bleeding like that she wanted to attend to his wounds but her stubborn heart refused to fall for his tricks again and instead she said.

"Goodnight Mr Walker" She said as she then opened her car door and drove out of the driveway without looking back.

Skyler just stared at the car as it disappeared into the night. He thought that seeing him bleed would be enough to trigger something in her but there was nothing.

' Are you really gone' He asked himself inside. He had tried everything but she was still adamant on not forgiving him or so he thought.

Tears flooded her eyes as she drove around the highway. but she blinked them away. She didn't want to shed anymore tear because she knew that he was never going to be there to wipe them. And so she blinked her tears away and then headed towards her condo.
