"What if you make one day,only to realize that your happiness was just a dream. The person you left sleeping beside you was no longer there.
~~~~~~
Emma folded her hands on her chest.. waiting for Draken's answer.
"It's not like that, I'd never leave you wife" Draken put up an act, faking a smile...but she could read him like a book.
"Ken... I'm warning you, if you leave me, I'll file for a divorce" she threatened.
"Emma, it's not going to happen, I promise ok" Draken replied..pulling her close to himself.
He was scared, the truth would soon come out, how was she going to take it.
" And you think, if you file for a divorce I'll agree?"
"Ofcourse you won't!" Emma replied...
The two sat down to have their breakfast.
Afterwards, they headed out....Draken took her out to do anything she wanted.
He gave her a chance, she took him out once.....it was his turn too.
The first place he took her was a teddy bear shop...
"What are we doing here?" Emma asked.
"You said, you once had a teddy bear but your stepmom gave it to her daughter, so I'll buy you a new one" Draken replied.
"But where did you get the money, you don't even work?" Emma asked.
"I...I won a lottery, and received some money" he lied.
"Just pick whatever you want"
"Ok,," Emma said before she went to pick out what she liked.
She picked out a brown one, with blue eyes that matched Draken's..
"I like this one...it reminds me of you" she said... happily playing with it.
It will surely help her soon, she'd need it
He paid the cashier and they wrapped it up for her.
The next place he took her too was an aquarium....to see dolphins....her favourite type of water animal.
He watched her play with the dolphins taking pictures of her secretly without her realizing it.
The next place was a theatre....he bought the most expensive VIP tickets just so they could have the room to themselves and watch a movie peacefully.
One by one, he was doing all the things he ever dreamt of doing together with her...
Bicycle riding, horse riding, eating at a fancy restaurant, music show, whatever he found safe and interesting for her.
Emma's phone suddenly rang again, and her boss asked her to drop by for a short while..
"Is it okay if I go?" She asked Draken.
"I'll take you there" he replied.
He knew what it was about...Roxy and her brother, Roby.
"I'll wait for you outside" he said before Emma went in.
"Emma!" Roxy's voice welcomed her at the entrance.
"What do you want from me?" She asked.
"Emma... I'm terribly sorry for what happened yesterday" Roxy even knelt down in front of her, ready to beg for her forgiveness.
"Please forgive Roby and I....please" she pleaded on her knees.
What was happening.
She also remembered the last time, Mrs Walter also came pleading for her forgiveness after she hurt her...was there some sort of secret behind it.
Strange!
"It's okay Roxy,, I've forgiven you" she'd already humiliated herself any way... a rich kid kneeling before her asking for forgiveness....what a joke?
"If you're done...I'll go ahead now,I have somewhere to go,,excuse me" Emma excused herself...saying goodbye to her boss and went out.

At the Dave Mansion, Sam had locked herself in her room, she didn't want to see anyone, even her own mom.
"Sam, come out already, how long do you plan to stay in there" her mother said, while knocking on the door.
"Just go away!" She shouted from inside her room.
"I only want to see Draken,no one else" she added.
"Silly girl, it's pointless to cry over the dead" her mother said.
"He's not dead, he will return"Sam snapped back at her.
"Why don't you just listen to your mother Samantha?"she was getting on her nerves.
"Just ask dad to come back already, I don't want to talk to you" she said angrily.
"Do you think he can face the city after the crisis you have created between the Hunts and our family?" Her mom asked.
" I know dad will find a solution, just call him back" Sam didn't say anything else after that.
Her mother kept knocking on the door, but she didn't open.

Draken ordered Shaun to bring his bike after Emma entered the café.
When she came back, he surprised her yet again.
" And where did you get this bike?" She asked. It looked so expensive.
"Also a lottery gift..." He lied.
"Huh!! You must have flirted with those old women to get so many things from them for free....with that face, you can trick anyone" Emma said...blushing at the last part of her sentence.
She meant he was too goodlooking with a charming face.
" Didn't I trick you too?" He asked leaning in closer to her face.
Obviously yes! She fell for that face as well
"Nonsense, you didn't" she shyly replied.
"We'll see about that" Draken said before he made her put on a helmet.
"Where are we going?" She asked.
"Just hop on and hold tight" he simply replied, getting back to the bike.
Emma did as he said and they drove away. This scene was seen by Roxy who'd just come out of the café although she didn't get to see Draken's face, she saw that it was Emma with some man.
Emma held him tight, she felt like there was no tomorrow, she felt like she was safe. .. she'd completely fallen for this man.
Draken sped through the highways and stopped when they'd reached the place he wanted to take her.
It was his special place, where he could view the sunset and sunrise...the place where he could come and tell his mom all his secrets and worries without a care in the world.
He'd never brought anyone there, but now Emma was a big part of his life and he felt it was the right place to confess his feelings for her.
"This place is beautiful, Ken" she said... feeling the cold breeze hit her face.
Draken took off his jacket and draped it over her shoulders.
"You love watching the sunset, I figured you'd love this place" he said, his voice calm and steady.
"Emma..." He held her hand and she stared up at him.
"The first moment we met was an accident, but when I laid my eyes on you, I knew you were the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. You're kind, sweet and beautiful, you deserve so much better than pain, you deserve to be happy" His words were deep from his heart.
"Emma, I've fallen madly in love with you...and I don't know what I'd do without you by my side" he said tracing her face with his fingers.
Emma smiled, his words were true and honest.
"I can say the same about you, Ken, I've fallen in love with you and want to stay by your side forever" she replied before he pulled her closer and they shared another passionate kiss.
He took her back home....carried her to their room still kissing her and placed her gently on the bed.
"Emma, once we do this, there's no turning back ..are you ready?" He wanted her consent.
"I'm ready...as long as it's you...and only with you, Ken" she replied before he kissed her again...taking off her clothes and they switched off the lights.
They spent the entire night together consummating and sealing their marriage.
They were happy
Emma fell asleep in Draken's arms and get watched her sleep, this would be the last time she'd be in his arms like this.
"I'm so sorry Emma, so sorry...." He apologized, tears rolling from his eyes while he kissed her one last time, placing the teddy bear he'd bought for her in the place he was sleeping, dressed up and left.... without saying a single word.
