"Flora ? " He called and she nodded her head positively , tears were still gushing out of her eyes.
"Brother Hardin me and Grandpa were worried about you , you ran away without saying anything , how could you do that to us ? "

He slept on the streets till one day he stumbled upon Flora and her nice grandpa who let Hardin began to stay with them.

Hardin could feel his Devil side slowly crawling out of him due to how angry he was at the moment , he was angry that the old man who died was the old man who took care of him if possible he would wake Stephen up and give him a more painful death.
Flora sniffed then broke the hug.
"Brother Hardin grandpa was found dead on the beach I have no body now , I am all alone " Flora was crying as she spoke.
"You still have me go and rest I will go and get the doctors , you injured yourself when you Forceful pulled out the drip " Hardin said then walked out of the ward.
Flora looked at her bleeding hand before looking at Sofina , who was standing on the same spot she was since she and Hardin stepped in.
"Who are you ? " Flora asked and folded her hands under her b**bs.
"My name is So...."
"I wasn't asking about your name , I was asking you , who you are to Hardin ? What is your relationship with him ? " Flora rudely cut Sofina off.
Sofina found it extremely rude but she still manage to put a pretty smile on her face.
"Mm my relationship with him is complicated " Sofina answered and Flora scoffed.
"Complicated ? I can see , you like brother Hardin but he doesn't like you , am I right ? " Flora asked with a mockery smirk on her face.
"What?! No th....."
"Save your explanation for yourself just get one thing into your skull brother Hardin is mine , I love him and I know he loves me too so don't you dare try to seduce him you flat ass b**ch " Flora said and rolled her eyes.
Sofina opened her mouth , planing to talk back but the door opened and Hardin walked in with two Male doctors beside him.
"I thought I asked you to lay down ? " Hardin said and Flora placed her right hand on her forehead.
"I don't feel too good brother Hardin , I don't even think I can walk properly "
Flora who's voice was clear and harsh at Sofina some minutes ago suddenly turned to a weak tiny voice even sofina was amazed by her acting skills.
Hardin carried her in a bridal style and she Wrapped her hand around his neck , gave Sofina a middle finger , she even mouthed "f**k you " To her.
Sofina just watched her with widen eyes , she didn't even know what to say , she was totally speechless.
