She's Reckless
Ep. 1
Her voice, her scent, and her sweet innocent face, Blaze can remember it all. It's been months but she was still haunting him in his dreams.
He cursed in the air as he rest his back on the swivel chair. His nights became restless because of her. Blaze clenched his jaw, the thought of her is like a poison to his system. He can't work well, is he smitten?
A ring on the telephone disturbed the silence.
Blaze
Hello? Why are you calling me this time?
He can't hide the irritation in his voice. His mom is calling him nonstop since this morning.
Mrs. Chen
Sweetie, please comeback home. Your grandfather miss your presence in this family.
Blaze
The old man wants me back? Is he dead serious?
He laughed sarcastically, he can imagine his mother's face of disapprovance in his behavior from the other line. He heard her sighed.
Mrs. Chen
Sweetie please, your grandpa is getting old. Can you atleast forgive him?
Blaze
His age has nothing to do with this matter. Mum if he wants me, he will call me back personally.
He ended the call with frustrations. It's been a year since his grandfather showed him the door out of their house.
How can he forget the old man's last word to him.
Lily
Sir? Can I disturb you for a minute?
He can hear Lilly's voice on the intercom.
The heavy door opened, Lilly was carrying a file of paperworks but her face tells him that she was here for something else.
Lily
Sir, someone named Suzzana was looking for you. And she seems pretty annoyed.
Blaze let out a sighed before he replied.
Suzanna was standing in front of his desk. He was not surprised that she was angry.
Suzanna
Your people are terrible! They made me wait on the reception because I don't have an appointment to you.
Blaze folded the folder. His cold eyes darted into hers.
Blaze
They're doing their job well.
Suzanna was about to react but a phone call disrupted her.
Blaze pick it up, is it his mother again?
Ep. 2
Blaze put the phone down. He can't believed to what he just heard.
Suzanna asks still half annoyed to the fact that Blaze ignored her awhile ago.
Blaze didn't answer her. Instead he showed her the door out of his office.
Blaze
You can leave for now. I'll call you.
Suzanna felt the sudden change of his aura. Its seem that Blaze suddenly became dull.
Suzanna gave him a peck on his lips. Blaze was caught off guard.
Within 24 hours Blaze reached his destination. After Suzanna left, he drove his car back to the house where he was once belonged.
The Spanish mansion was still the same but he notice the changes in the garden. The garden is no longer vibrant as before. He parked his car outside, he didn't even bother to drive it to the garage.
Mrs. Chen
Blaze you cameback sweetie!
He could see his mother smiling brightly as he approached the main door of the mansion.
Mrs. Chen
I'm glad you made it here son
He can tell that her mother is close to crying and it made him feel guilty. His cold heart seems melting just seeing her like this.
He gave her a long hugged before they entered the living room. He don't know how to compensate to his mother's yearning.
His eyes are fixed to the familiar room.
Mrs. Chen
Why wont you come inside and pay him a visit?
Blaze can see a hint of hesitation in his mother's eyes. She can smile but she can't hide it.
Ep. 3
Blaze clenched his jaw as he saw the sight of him lying on the bed. The place almost look like a private room of a hospital. The apparatus that was connected to his grandfather made him look seriously ill.
Blaze
How long did he fall from this?
He can sense Mrs. Chen's presence beside the door watching him.
Mrs. Chen
Fall from what son?
Blaze
Fall from this deep sleep?
Blaze asked scanning him whole. He look at the ECG machine beside his grandfather's bed.
Mrs. Chen
About a month ago. The doctor said he was on coma. And these machines attached to him was the only thing that was saving him from dying permanently son.
Mrs. Chen
Blaze, you should put your grandfather at peace. Please forgive him before he dies.
His mother's voice cracked, her teary eyes was full of sadness.
Blaze
Are you willing to let him go after I forgive him?
Blaze voice is cold as an ice. The sight of him didn't gave him a squeeze on his stone heart.
Mrs. Chen
Son, are you serious?
She was astound to his words. Mrs. Chen couldn't believed him as she approached his son.
Blaze
Yeah, I'm serious mum. I forgave him.
Mrs. Chen was caught off guard. She didn't know what to say.
Blaze walked towards the door.
He stopped but didn't look back to them.
Blaze
If this is the only way from stopping him from his crappy act. Why not?
Blaze
Now why don't you wake up this old man. I'm sick of your acting. Do you really think that I won't notice?
Blaze
I'm about to give both of you an oscar award here.
Mrs. Chen
Blaze let me explain.
A sense of panicked attacked her system.
Blaze
Explain what mum? Your dirty tricks?
Blaze was mad. But he was containing his anger. The only thing he can't stop is his lips grinning like a devil.
His grandfather wake up from his bed.
Blaze
Yeah? What do you need old man?
His eyes darted onto his grandfather like daggers.
Grandpa
Blaze, hear me please, hear me.
His voice was struggling, struggling from his supressed sadness and guilt.
His mom supported his grandfather's back as he tried to sit. She was really worried.
Grandpa
Please forgive your mother. I'm the one who dragged her into this drama.
Blaze stared at him eyes cold.
Grandpa
I am getting old Blaze.
Grandpa
I don't want to argue with you anymore.
Blaze replied without a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
Grandpa
Blaze.. my grandson..
His voice cracked. Blaze can see that his teary eyes is longing for this moment to come.
Blaze
Just don't bother me. Let's all be civil.
Grandpa
Your brother needs your help.
Grandpa
Our company needs your help.
Blaze
And why would I help you?
Blaze looked at them. His mother who was still in awe and his grandfather who can't believe what he was seeing right now.
Blaze
Don't tell me, you'll say because we are family.
Blaze
You see old man, business is business.
Blaze
I can never give you a favor without a payback.
His grandfather made a sighed.
Grandpa
I will give you what ever you want, Blaze... just help him. Your brother and the rest of our family needs you.
Blaze said and left the room.
As he started his cars engine, his eyes watered.
He punched the steering wheel and drove off his car.
