"Call her. Where is she?" Colin asked as they sped towards the airport. "No one picked up the phone," Tyler remarked. "What about Alyssa? She should be there," Colin said. Tyler hesistated and Colin rolled his eyes. He did an emergency brake and both of them jolted from their seats. "Why are you so afraid of calling Alyssa? I know she misses you," Colin said. "How would YOU know? You're not

"Don't worry. Mommy is going to take care of you. We are all going to be happy. Together," Lila talked to herself. She sat up on the rail of her roof access of the condo where she stayed. Colin and Tyler raced up the stairways. Colin even slipped a few times and he had his legs bruised and bleeding. "Are you alright?" Tyler asked. "Forget me. Lila's in trouble," Colin said as he trudged forward.

"I can't do this," she said, crying. "Why not? It's your chance to get what you want!" "NO! It's what YOU want! You want revenge. I want him to love me!" Lila cried. "Wake up lila! You have been cheated, lied and now preganant! We can win this! He is weak. It's time for us to strike!" "It's not the way it should be. I can forgive him. The baby can too!" "Shut up!" megan said, "walls have ears!" "

going to court. That was what was planned. Colin was now going crazy with the house arrest that his father placed him in. After he somehow managed to sneak out in the middle of the night to a bar to have a drink and the media spotted him and called him an irresponsible alocholic who would bring down the family business. "Fuck!" he screamed and tore the newspapers. He was so distraught. Wishing

colin came out of the testing room. tyler asked if everything was alright. "yeah. they just need some time to analyse it," colin replied. "how long?" "about a week. i hope i would wait so long," colin said, tucking his hands into his pockets. he looked around the empty corridors. there were no reporters, no nosey parkers and no lila too. "looking for lila?" tyler asked. colin nodded. "sorry buddy

"the plantiff is requesting a compensation of nearly 5 million dollars if Mr. Colin Tan does not want to wed her. This would include shares in the business and also monetary form," Mr. Yang, the lawyer, said as he flipped through the documents that were layed on the table. colin paced anxiously around the room.

After sending shayna's parents back to the hotel, timothy and shayna slowly walked back home. she tucked her arm around his and cuddled in with him. timothy smiled and nuzzled her. "so do i make a good son-in-law?" timothy asked. shayna tilted her head up to look at timothy. she smiled, "i guess you do. just that you sometimes try too hard." "whatever do you mean?" timothy asked, puzzled. shayna

alyssa ran back to the room, hoping to find tyler. however, as she entered the lift on the right to head down to the room; tyler entered the lift on the left to head down to the lobby. alyssa walked into an empty room. what was left of him was an envelope and a letter...

"timmy, i think you better go see my parents. i'll stay here with lyss for awhile," shayna suggested. timothy nodded and headed up the lift. they needed some time to talk things though. "lyss what happened?" alyssa wiped her tears and then answered, "tyler and i aren't getting married. he's going back today." shayna gasped, "what? what happened?" alyssa leant back against the chair, "colin's here

colin packed his bags and quickly but his mind whirled like crazy. he didn't know what was going on in detail and he couldn't believe things were just going way out of plan. what was lila trying to do? was she really pregnant? what was going to happen if she really had his child and was trying to ruin his family and his company's reputation? colin needed someone to be with him now... he quicky

shayna unlocked the door quietly. she didn't want to wake anyone up before the sun comes up. she tried her best to tip toe up the steps and hide herself in the room. no one would know she had spent a whole night, sleeping with the enemy. just as she was about to reach her room, she noticed someone walk out of his room. he didn't look too happy. shayna knew why. his face had worried and concern

colin sat down and flicked on the television. he was beginning to doubt is shayna was ever going to make it. maybe she was just trying to make him feel good about himself by telling him all those stuff. he looked at all this planning... the flowers, the chocolates... it has all gone to waste. about twenty minutes after the appointed meeting time, colin decided it was time to give up. he didn't

Shayna, Timothy and her parents walked down the streets of london as Timothy showed them the places of interest. Shayna felt happy having her family around her once again but she realised that she had been thinking about colin more. she wondered what he was doing now and she couldn't wait to see him later tonight. he called her just a few hours ago and arranging a special supper at a quiet cafe

"where did you go honey?" Mr. Fong asked as shayna walked back into the hotel room. "oh... i went to get something from my friend. it's for school," shayna lied. her faced was still a little flushed from the little incident back at the poolside. "you looked a little flushed dear..." timothy said as he went over to hold her. "oh... i had a drink or two with her. she was feeling a little down,"

shayna felt her feet backing away. she just stared at him walking towards her and all she could do was to back away. "get away from me," shayna said, she felt her face turn hot. "shay... please..." "colin... I ... I don't wanna see you!" she answered. shayna ran out towards the poolside and colin chased after her. she stopped as she reached the edge of the pool and at that point, she was crying.

"come on..." shayna said, tugging at timothy's hand as she raced through the crowds in the airport. she was so excited and couldn't wait to set her eyes on her parents. "i'm running as fast as i can honey," timothy said, trying to catch up. "what happened to all those hours in the gym?" shayna laughed. "i think i need to go back for more," timothy replied. finally, they arrived at the gate. the

Colin sat down opposite tyler, who was beaming and smiling to himself. Colin frowned. not knowing what his best friend had up his sleeves. "So.... how are you?" tyler said, still beaming, but he's obviously taking Colin for a ride. "Just cut the crap Ty. tell me what you have to tell me. i'm busy you know," Colin retorted. "alright alright. i can see that you know i have good news for you."

Life in London. not exactly what Shayna loved but she was getting used to the fact that she was living with her every caring boyfriend and she was studying a course that she enjoys. She has great friends like Kya and Kelly who always made her laugh and share great times in the university with. However, this week was especially special because her parents would be coming down to London to see her,

"hi colin. it's nice to see you again," one of colin's business associates shook his hand. colin smiled and greeted him back, trying his best to be happy and of course friendly. lila, dressed to kill, held onto his left arm and looked like his dutiful girlfriend. after a while of talking about some business deals that went well this past year, the associate turn to look at lila.

the annual company function. colin always liked attending fucntions, especially those that glorified his name and he would be the VIP there.

the campus was gorgeous. it was very big and none like those back home. everyone was just bustling away, checking for their timetables, buying books, talking to old friends and lecturers. it was a sight to behold for shayna. "this is so cool," shayna said as she looked through her timetable. she hadn't been this excited since she started working as a counsellor. "i'm glad you like the school,"

the next morning, tammy was already wide awake and sitting at the counter with her daily dose of fashion magazines right in front of her. she propped her thin legs onto the seat beside her and lazed there, awaiting breakfast to be served. "my my... tammy leong awake before nine? that's a first," timothy said as he walked into the kitchen. tammy placed her magazine down and stared at her brother.

"that's why i'm in a fix now!" colin said, burying his head into his hands. he felt so humiliated and regretful. never once did he sleep with someone and feel so bad.

Shayna and Tim were in the limo but shayna was feeling uncomfortable. she didn't know what to think of tim's family now. all the rich people she knew, that was invclusive of colin were snobs and selfish people but when she looked at Tim's sincere smile and touch, somehow all that inhibition seem to leave her. meanwhile tim's mother just kept going on and on about how life was like in london when

shayna stared out into the clear skies outside the window. she placed her hand on the screen. it felt cold. she imagined what would happen if she were outside of the aeroplane instead of being inside. timothy was reading newspapers: London Daily, The Sun and even USA Today. Shayan was just bored. she had flipped through the inflight entertainment catalog. Love Actually and Matrix Reloaded were

timothy drove her to the beach. it was the perfect evening to catch the sunset. timothy parked right where the breakwaters were. "want to go up there?" timothy asked shayna, pointing to the breakwater. "not really," shayna spat. "come on. let's go see the sunset!" timothy said, getting out of the driver's seat and opening the door for shayna. "i don't want to go," shayna said. timothy sighed as

colin had just finished up with one of his latest proposal to one of the important businessmen in China, Mr. Yeow. He was the important figure to allow Colin's company to expand into bigger markets like China. Colin looked through his proposal and smiled to himself. though he had a terrible week thinking about Shayna and feeling both upset and angry about it, this proposal was the best thing that

"nothing really," timothy said, avoiding the question. tho he wanted to tell her about his feelings but somehow he could not say it out. "well, whenever you're ready timmy," shayna said, patting him on the thigh., "let's go eat." "you know, you're the only person that i let get away with calling me timmy," timothy said. "i'm that special huh?" shayna said with a smirk. "you wouldn't know how

colin didn't know how to respond. he just stood there stunned for a while. then lila interupted that awkward moment. "sorry but Dr. Chong is ready to see you," she said to Colin. "thanks lila. see you around shayna," colin spat before walking away with colby. shayna watched as they left. colby's longing eyes were upon her but colin kept making him walk away from her. she didn't even have the

colin woke up especially and told himself he needed to get out of the house at least an hour earlier as he used to. he didn't want to increase the chances of him meeting megan in them morning would be less. after a quick shower, he just dragged any shirt and pants out of the cupboard. there wasn't time to pick and choose today. he grabbed his bag and decided breakfast could be taken outside

after work, shayna packed up her bags and was ready to leave. her mother was cooking dinner tonight and she was suppose to wait for her father who was also finishing up his shift. "hurry dad. i'm starving," shayna grumbled as she sat on his table. "i'm trying to. just hang in there," Mr. Fong said, sorting out all the patients files. he then turned to lila who was doing the night shift and said

afternoons were the busiest times at the office for colin. his staff usually are more perked up after they had their fill of food and drinks. that would mean that production rates and more meetings for him. after his own lunch, colin did feel a little better, knowing that his best friend was still going to support him even though he might have his own things to worry about. however, that didn't

colin didn't feel like going for lunch. he was really sick and tired of eating. besides, he had work to do in the office and having time to let his mind rest would mean thinking about megan and shayna again. this time he was in deep shit. megan is going to live less than a mile away from him and shayna was miles and acres away from him. why can't the both of them switch places? that would help.

"i don't want it! it taste yucky! i want to eat pizza and fries!" ryan complained.

"Not going out tonight with Colin?" Mrs. Fong asked. "Please mom. Stop it. You have been teasing me about that since I brought him home," Shayna said, bringing the newspaper down from her face. "You brought him home, girl?" Mr. Fong asked. "Yes papa. Sorry I didn't tell you earlier. I thought mom might have said something about it," Shayna said. "Oh yes she did. She said many things," Mr. Fong

After work, Colin started to pack up to return home and rest. He had not been resting properly and his eye bags were showing. He needs to go home and sleep. Somehow his work has helped him get over the fact that he and Shayna needs space to develop their careers before having anything to do with their relationship. After he has made his father proud in the job, then maybe he would think of

alyssa and tyler at underneath a big tree feasting on the food while colin mixed the cocktail together. shayna was hapily playing soccer with colby. "colby's health has improved so much. i can hardly recognise him from the army days. he used to be so pale and lifeless. now he's just like any young kid, playing and laughing. "yeah i'm glad he's like this now. so happy. i owe it all to shayna who

Shayna was lying on her bed that Sunday morning not knowing what to do. she tossed and turned, smelling her sheets. they still faintly smelt of colin. she thought of the night where they talked, kissed and laughed on this same bed. as she closed her eyes, she can still feel him kissing her. god! she needed to wash these sheets today or she'll continue thinking about him. she immediately picked up

colin sat across shayna at the cafe. he was leaning back against the seat, trying to piece up his proper script to say to shayna. meanwhile shayna just fiddled with her spaghetti, tossed and turned it around. it almost looked like the state of her heart. after a few moments of silence, colin gently touched shayna's hand and stroked it a little. that made the both of them tickled in their hearts.

megan left colin's house the next morning with her bags. she's been crying the whole night, her eyebags said it all. she just pulled her hair back into a loose ponytail and she wore just a tee and jeans. nothing like the megan who was all successful and happy in the past. she looked around colin's apartment for the last time, teary eyed. she could just imagine how colin would tease her in front

colin rang the doorbell. he hoped someone was home and that he would not be just sent back to megan. well, it was his last hope or he would sleep on the streets. "hey! whassup with you? and that bag?" tyler asked. "i left megan. so i needed to get some air," colin said. "well, come in then. this bachelor's pad can hold another bachelor," tyler joked. tyler passed colin a glass of rum and some

at the ice cream parlour, colby was happily gorging down ice cream while shayna and colin snuggled up on a sofa, his arm around her shoulder, sharing a latte together. "my parents want you to come down for a dinner this weekend. i want them to get to know the special girl in my life," colin commented. shayna was shocked. not that meeting his parents again was freaky but the fact that he was still

"i don't want to see the doctor," colby whined. "colby. be good. you know you have to get yourself checked up since you are doing sports in school and doing strenuous activities," colin explained. "but they make me take injections and everything yucky," colby complained. "go for your check up and you can see shayna jie there too. then we can go grab some ice cream after that. what do you think?"

"come, sit down and have breakfast," mrs. fong said, not kowing what else to do when her daughter comes out of the bedroom with a boy. "would you like coffee or tea?" mrs. fong asked as she served colin some sandwiches. "coffee would do fine. thank you," colin said, shayna was just standing happily behind him. "ok. shayna,

colin stood up and headed for the shower. at least shayna had a shower of her own. "you might want to use this," shayna said, throwing him a nice fresh towel. "thanks. anyway i think you should be doing something else than watching me shower from your bed," colin commented as he took of his shirt to reveal toned abs that made shayna melt.

"this is me," shayna said, leaning against her main gate and facing colin. she was giggling like a schoolgirl who was just out on her first date. she never imagine she would behave like this but she was. "very nice. it's the first time i'm officially sending you home," colin said, brushing her hair back and leaning close for another kiss. at the back of shayna's mind, she knew they should stop

Shayna had to transfer a bus when her good friend somehow changed meeting venues at the last minute. They were now meeting at this Italian restaurant at some uptown district. Shayna almost wanted to murder her friend. Why can't they just meet somewhere more convienient than going all the way to some posh restaurant? "What's with the sudden change of venue?" shayna asked as se sat down opposite

colin took a look at his phone and sighed. no response from shayna at all. could she just be avoiding him? a knock on the door. must be megan trying to see if he's been seeing other women again. he didn't want to answer it but a man's voice boomed.

"alright. I'll be outside doing my work. you can just press this button when you wake up and i'll come look for you."

she couldn't help thinking about him. though it's been a few weeks since the sleeping together incident, shayna couldn't help but just feel hair-raising sensations when she thought about that night. for good and for bad. for one thing colin was gentlemanly enough not to rape her in the middle of the night and bad because they were not meant to be together. "he has a girlfriend you silly girl"

shayna felt the warm sun rays hit her face. it was getting very warm... where was she? what's happening? she rubbed her eyes and realised that she was sleeping on a car seat. she squinted, the sun rays were too radiant. Shayna then realised that she was still in the clothes that she wore last night. did she go home? who's car is this? "grrr." a figure turned who the hell is that? shayna looked

shayna's day didn't really turn out good. her hands-on session with the children turned out to be rather nightmarish for her. the children were wonderful to have around but the guidance she was under was a little questionable. Miss Soong was a rather bad instructor. She made shayna do the method she was doing instead of the method that shayna thought was best for the children. in the end, some

"back so early?" Mr. Fong asked as he heard Shayna coming through the door. when she didn't reply, he turned around and saw her eyes swollen with tears and were red. "what happened?" Mr. Fong asked, he went over to her and hugged her tight. "papa..." she cried, gripping him close. she was glad that her father was still around to care for her. after that, Mr. Fong sat Shayna down to talk about

megan walked into the country club and looked around. quiet it seems for a club that just hosted one of the Tan's parties. she went to the reception and asked if Mr. and Mrs. Tan were still around. they left? hmm.

after an hour on the driving range, a dip in the pool and a workout in the gym, shyana and colin were too exhausted to do anything else that had to use excessive muscles. shayna slumped onto a lounge chair by the poolside and tried to catch her breath. everything was just too fast and she was actually having fun! "are you gamed for more activities?" colin asked, after he came out of the shower,

megan walked into the house. it was rather empty. yeah most probably Colin was at the family gathering at his country club. well, at least the fight between them is over. maybe what Zoe said was right. she should be understanding and sweet and make Colin understand and realise what a wonman she was. someone who is not insecure, over senisitve and always giving him the freedom to do what he wants.

"shayna jie!" Colby cried out as he ran through the guests and into the arms of Shayna. "hey Colby. Nice to see you again. How have you been?" Colby replied with a firm nod. It was really nice to see him again, all happy and energetic like what a normal boy would be instead of a sick child. Then two figured walked up towards Shayna. She looked up and there they were... the Tan family. "you

Shayna was just bumming around the hospital. she was doodling on her father's rough notepad. she didn't really feel like walking around to say hi to the children. "shayna, what's wrong with you?" her father asked as he came back from his rounds. "nothing papa. just stoning." "aren't you suppose to get ready for the party. it's already 11." "i know. but i dunno if i really should go... i mean...

megan's been hiding out at her best friend, Zoe's place. megan was still pretty huffed about the whole issue. "megan, are you going to stay here forever?" "not really but colin's gone too far this time! telling me lies... going out with that social worker girl... cheating on ME!" "ha." "did i just hear you snigger?" megan asked, sitting upright on her chair. "yeah. i mean, colin tan, your

shayna dragged her feet into Soup Junction and as usual, rest her arms in the counter where alyssa was trying to stack up the bowls properly. shayna just sighed really loudly, as though she purposely wanted her best friend to ask if something was wrong. "ok just spill" alyssa said without looking away from her bowls. well, not the question and tone that shayna was looking for but it would do just

a saturday morning. colin woke up in his big comfortable waterbed after a major hangover. he had a very bad headache and realised he had slept through the morning and it's nearly eleven. oh man. he missed work! where was megan? didn't she come home yesterday? megan and colin stays together in this super nice condo apartment that colin's father kinda bought for him when he turned 25 two years ago.

"... so i really hope we can work things out... for the sake of colby... and maybe us?" colin said. shayna sighed, she heard enough. sometimes she really did not know what to make out of all this. maybe she made a wrong decision to meet him and talk it out. she looked out of the shop, trying to rest her eyes on something that she had less emotional attachment to. then, she saw... is that who she

"say thank you to Dr. Chong, Colby. He has been taking care of you and made you all better," Mr. Tan said, smiling at Dr. Chong. "thank you Dr. Chong," colby said, looking very disinterested and upset. he kept looking at the robot in his hand and playing with it. "haha. he is such an adorable child. i hope we can get a transplant for him soon and he would be all better. meanwhile i know you are

A week later... and a few days more... "shayna? are you busy?" Mr. Fong asked, knocking on her door. "i'm alright papa. you can come in." she said, as she closed her textbooks. "what's up?" "well, i came to talk to you about... colby and colin." "papa. i don't really wanna talk about it." shayna said, she hugged her pillow and leaned back against her chair. Mr. Fong sighed and sat down directly

later in the evening, colin went out to buy dinner for the three of them while shayna stayed back to wait for colby to wake up from the injection. the doctor said he had another attack and needs a lot of attention. shayna and colin were both worried sick about this boy. even though his hand wasn't doing well, colin insisted that he should stay on and make sure colby was alright. his love for

the phone rang non stop in the morning. shayna was too tired to even pick it up and quickly left it on message mode. "hi. this is shayna here. sorry i can't come to the phone now. please leave a message after the tone... *beep*" "shayna... this is lys here. i was wondering if you are still looking for a job. my manager said there's a vacancy here at Soup Junction and i was wondering it would be

"wow. this is interesting. your dad works as the head nurse." colin commented as they walked towards a small coffee place at the hospital. "yeah it's kinda interesting. everyone in the hospital calls him the gentle giant." "haha. i can see why." "so you're very close to colby huh?" "yeah a little... it's just that my parents had colby when i was in my junior college days. it's weird to suddenly

shayna arrived at the hospital and went towards the children's ward where her father worked as one of the head nurses there. although he was a big and strong man, he has always been a gentle giant. he had a soft heart for children and making sure they were well. everyone in the hospital loved shayna's father because he was one of the rare male nurses that truly cared. even the lady nurses all

argh. what luck. she had to meet such an irritant. shayna walked down the roads of the busy commercial square down to Soup Junction, where her good friend Alyssa was working. at least she had a friend working around here so that she could vent her anger somewhere constructive. "heyo" shayna called as she walked into the cafe. "shayna! what brings you here? i never knew you could get out of bed

both of them stared and marveled at it. well, she wasn't really interested in it. Her eyes diverted towards him most of the time, just his gaze at the object wished that she, instead of that whatever-thing was the object of his attention. She just wanted him to look at her... just to know that she was alive and that she wanted him.... but... "So what do you think of it?" he finally asked her,
