HOURS LATER!
Hailey let out a soft groan, feeling nothing but pain all over her body.
“Babe!!” Hailey heard the familiar worried voice say beside her.
It took a while for her vision to get stable and when it eventually did, She came face to face with her best friend who had a worried and relieved look all over her face. Debbie was seated on the bed beside her.
“Are you okay? Do you want me to call the Doctor?” She was almost standing on her feet to do that when Hailey. managed to speak.
“W….water.” Her voice came out as a whisper.
Debbie dashed to a nearby table and poured some water into a cup.
She helped Hailey to sit up and then fed her some, of which Hailes only took a few sips, and then Debbie placed the cup on the nightstand and went back to sit beside her.
“Are you sure you are okay, babe? I can call the Doctor if you want me to.”
“Yeah yeah, I’m fine. My head feels very heavy and I feel pains all over my body.”
“Yeah, there’s a bandage around your head, to stop the bleeding. And a small one on your arm.
Hailey took a glance at her right arm which had two plaster bandages and then she brought her left hand to the forehead and sighed.
“How’s my face?” She asked her best friend.
“You look really sick and there’s a scratch on your lip.”
“I almost lost it when I got a call that you were at the hospital. I knew you were going on a date and then the next thing I know is a call from the emergency center?!”
“It’s complicated.”

“You need not explain anything. Tyler is outside. He told me how he fucked up.” Debbie said and then it hit
Hailey.
“Cole? How is he?” The worry was evident in her voice and all over her face.
“The doctor said they were about to conduct surgery on him to take out the bullet.”
“Is he going to be okay?”
“I’m sure he will be.”
Hailey sighed, slamming her back against the bed rest.
“I wasn’t feeling good about the date. I should have turned Tyler down. If I did, then all of these wouldn’t be happening.”
“You actually did nothing wrong, babe. You’ve got every right to enjoy yourself and your life. It is so unfortunate that this had to happen.”
“Why would anyone want me dead?”
Debbie sighed and reached for Hailey’s hand, gently giving it a light squeeze. “Please don’t cry”
“I really don’t want to. But my whole life sucks.”
Debbie shook her head. “Please don’t, you need all your strength to quicken your healing process. Crying would
only make things worse.”
“I know. I just don’t get why anyone would want me dead. I mean, I never wish anyone evil.”
“We are not going to pretend as though we don’t know who the enemies are. This is one of the reasons why I was skeptical about you taking over your Grandfather’s company.”
“It wasn’t an accident. The person behind the truck is nowhere to be found. And the person who shot. We don’t know if it is the same person or two different people.”
“But the police have started carrying out investigations to trace where the truck came from and also check the Street cameras. We are gonna find the culprit and I swear if your bitchy step sister has a hand in this, then lam going kill her with my bare hands.”

“I thought I was going to die. I saw him pull the trigger and suddenly, I was on the floor.”
“Cole took the bullet for you.”
“I don’t like that.”

“Me neither but I am grateful he saved you.”
”
“Yeah, now it is going to seem like I owe him my whole life. Especially after I have made it clear that I want nothing to do with him.”
“You are right. He did the bravest thing anyone in love could have done. He did it in an instant.”
“Perfect! Just the perfect scenario for someone I want to get rid of.”
“I am struggling so badly, trying to get rid of anything I feel for him that this had to happen.”
“Would you have preferred if it was Tyler that saved you?”
“I don’t wish for anyone to get shot but yeah, maybe!”

with him.”
Would have reasons not to think too much and maybe finally agree to marry him and form a family
“You can’t force love. You know that right?”
Hailey said nothing.
“I am so mad at Tyler. That is why he is outside.” Debbie confessed.
“You need not be mad at him. Cole was way out of line. I would have probably done the same if I were in his
shoes.”
“I guess he brought us to the hospital?”
Debbie nodded.
“He said he could see you driving behind him but suddenly he didn’t see you anymore. He got uncomfortable thoughts and then decided to make a u–turn. He saw you and Cole bleeding, then brought you guys here.”

Hailey sighed not knowing what to say.
“I hope Cole makes it through. If not, I am going to die of guilt.”
“What kind of guilt?”

“All kinds. That he saved me, he did thinking he was alone whereas he has two sons somewhere that he has.
never met.”
“So you are having a change of mind?”
“I don’t know but everything is not going as I planned in my head.”
“I was eventually going to tell the twins about their Dad but that would be when they are grown and can decide for themselves if they want him in their lives or not.”
“I thought there was a time when I had control of my life but right now I don’t know what is going on.”
“Try to stay calm and focus on getting better. Cole will be fine. He is a strong man so he will be good. Thankfully the bullet was just by his arm and not his head or heart.”
Hailes nodded, still not feeling at ease.
“Did you know Tyler was going to propose to me ?” Hailey asked her best friend.
“I had no idea. I just knew it was going to happen soon since you both have been together for a while. I mean, it is what is expected of any long relationship.”
“He said he has had the ring with him for seven months.”
“I think I can believe that. Even anyone blind would know that Tyler is insanely in love with you. It sucks you don’t feel the same way about him.”
“I care about him.”
“But it’s not enough.”
“Is it crazy that I feel guilty about it?”

“It’s normal. He is definitely pained by now but the best thing you can do for him is to not marry him if you can’t reciprocate the same love he gives you,”
“I hate that I am in this triangle.”
“I honestly didn’t see the proposal coming. At least not tonight. I had no idea what to say. People saw us and recorded. I really hope we aren’t viral on social media yet.”
“Cole pulled me out of the restaurant and announced to everyone that I was his wife. He did that so confidently. I can’t blame Tyler for storming out and leaving me behind. I am also glad he wasn’t the one who got shot.”
“Why? Because your baby Daddy got more muscular?”
“I don’t wish evil on Cole but he sort of deserves it for all the pain he put me through.”
“I’ve never seen anyone as jealous as Cole,” Debbie mumbled.
“You can say that again.”
Debbie was almost saying something when the door to Hailey’s ward flung open and an angry–looking Vanessa stormed in approaching Hailey’s bedside.
“You bitch! What did you do to my husband?”
