"It's obvious. Leonica refused to give you answers, didn't she? You wouldn't be here if she had. So, ask away, I'll tell you anything you want to know."

It had been more than two hours since his talk with Angelina had ended and he left Oslo's female prison and might he tells you, all the shit she told him, the shit he had done, did more harm than good.

With a sigh, he brought the cigarette stick to his lips, and took another puff, watching the smoke rise up into the air.

"You know, that's going to kill you." He turned his head at the sound of an unfamiliar voice, raising a brow at the brunette who stood a few feet away from him.

"And you care, why?" He asked, not really in any mood to entertain sympathy from a stranger.

"Oh, I don't." The female shrugged. "But," She pointed towards the scenery of a tulips and daffodils garden. "Those little guys, my little Buys. don't deserve to die due to the bad habits of grown men?" Gabriel frowned, and looked in the direction she was pointing. For a moment, he could only stare, wondering what the hell she was on about "The flowers?" He asked.

"Yes. I own that garden and that death stick of yours is gonna kill it off if you keep smoking so close to my flowers. So, put that shit out or go else where." She said and walked past.

He questioned his previous thought, knowing that even though Christian was against the idea of him smoking, which only happened rarely when he's extremely stressed, the older male never really voiced it out.

Gabriel wasn't sure if his brain was playing tricks on him or if his memory was starting to cback But as much as he didn't want to get his hopes up, the idea of getting his memories back wasn't a bad one With the cigarette successfully put out, Gabriel took one last look in the garden's direction before turning to enter his car, however, just as he pulled on the bandle, a familiar wave of pain washed over his body. This time, it wasn't like the ones he had before, it was a stronger, and much more intense.

It was the worst headache he had ever experienced, and it made his head feel like a hammer was hitting him from the inside out.

"Hey, are you okay?" In a second, the brunette was suddenly beside him. When he failed to answer and continued to groan in pain, she concluded. "I think we need to get you to the hospital." Gabriel didn't respond, but rather, he tried to hold himself together.

She fumbled around his pocket, finding the keys to his car, which she admire hortly after she was seated in the driver's seat and he In the passengers.

"Mr. Bryce," The old doctor greeted, taking his glasses off and tucking them in the breast pocket of his white coat. "What brings you here, is there something wrong?" Gabriel who was seated alone in his office at that time, took the liberty to explain his week to the doctor, so far. By the end of the explanation, Doctor Bailey carried out a few examinations and nodded his head.

"This is good news," He said.

"Alright." Gabriel nodded and stood up.

Doctor Bailey watched as he was about to leave when suddenly asked. "Oh, Have you and Ms. Romero concluded on the conceiving method, yet? Gabriel looked over his shoulder, gaze confused. "The what?" With that question Doctor Bailey's mouth formed an 'o' shape, realizing that Leonica was yet to tell him of this. But the damage was already done and he didn't intend on hiding anything from Gabriel.

With a sigh, Leonica nodded her head even though he couldn't see her. "We're having a movie night. Grace suggested it." She explained.

"That's nice." "Yeah, she's probably regretting it by now, he's too hyper for a five year old." She chuckled, and Owen found himself smiling, because he could just imagine how cute her eyes must look right now, or how beautiful her laugh sounded.

"Ah, well, I wanted to know if-" "Mommy the tent can't be completed without the marshmallows." Ashley announced, appearing by her side with his hands on his Waist Leonica's expression softened. "But we don't have that now, sweetie." But I really want marshmallow." Leonica opened her mouth, about to speak, when Owen Cut her off. "How about I bring the marshmallows over?"

I won't take too long, I promise." "W-wait Owen, you don't have to. I can get the marshmallows from somewhere else." "Nah, don't worry about it. It'll be my honor. And besides, I miss that little one." He said, voice have a more persuasive tone Leomica gave in with a sigh, but before that she realized how quick she was to give into Owen's demands "Min, alright then." She responded, her lips curved up. "You can cover now, I'll send the address." "Lure thing When the call ended, Ashley tugged at her sleeves, forcing her to look down at him.

"Who was that? Owen? Is he coming?" Leonica nodded Ashley's eyes lighted up like a bulb. "Really? He's coming?" "Mm bm "Oh, oh, we gotta make him a pillow, a very fluffy one!" Ashley Saks and rushed off.

As promised, Owen didn't take long and soon enough, the bell rang, and Ashley was rushing towards the door.

He pulled the knob open, revealing Owen who was dressed in a dark blue boodie and black sweatpants, black mask and face cap, and a plastic bag in his hand THE "Owen!" Ashley yelled and flung himself into his arms, almost knocking him down.

Owen hugged him back, laughing. "Hey Ash. It's been a while, hasn't it?" He said and raised the bag Ashley cheered, snatching the marshmallow and running back into the living room, not forgetting to thank him in the process.

Owen laughed, walking inside and closing the door behind him. He took off his mask, pulling his face cap off and running a hand through his hair.

"Yeah? And what are we watching?" Leading him into the backyard, She looked over her shoulder and offered the idol a smile full of mischief. "That's a secret." "A secret, huh?" "Yeah, but I'll give you a clue. It's a movie about clowns and res balloons.

"What type of an adult makes a kid watch a scary movie?" shaking his head, Owen stepped out of the tent, following Leonica as she went to retrieve another bowl of pop com.

"I didn't make him watch it, Ashley picked that by himself." She defended.

"And you agreed." "Why wouldn't I?" Leonica questioned, pressing her lips together and pushing it inwardly, making her look much younger than she was.

Owen chuckled, running a hand through his hair in a bid to push strands away from his face.

"My hair." He gestured towards it. "Will you tie it up?" He repeated. "Please." Leonica swallowed, her throat suddenly dry. She couldn't help the heat that crept up her face.

"A-are you sure?" "Yes." She hesitated for a moment, but the look on his face was so determined, that she couldn't say no.

So, with a sigh, she turned around, walked towards him and reached her hand out "Come, give it," She said.

He handed the scrunchy to her and a few seconds later, she was behind him, her fingers running through his hair.

Leonica found herself swallowing thickly. "Are you sure? Your hair might get messy." "I'm sure." Owen answered determined, keeping his eyes on her.

She swallowed once more, this tbeing conscious of the action before committing it and nodded. "A-alright then." Getting on her tippy toes, she reached behind, hoping that she could pack his hair rather than mess it up.
