They rushed home as soon as Aisha received the news about Sherry. Good thing Ethan was with her to drive her home since she was restless since earlier.

They went inside and found Rio anxiously pacing back and forth.

"Dad!" she went to greet him.

"Aisha."

"Dad, what happened? How did you know about her?"

"An old friend told me that they saw Silver rushed Sherry in the hospital and she's in a critical situation."

"But what exactly happened?"

"That I do not know. I'm still waiting for his complete report."

"Then we need to save her!" she exclaimed.

"I wish it's as simple as that. but we need to think about it thoroughly since she is being guarded."

"Did Silver possibly do that to her?" Ethan suddenly asked.

"That we do not know." Rio answered then he looked at Aisha who is seemingly in profound thought.

"What are you thinking Aisha?" Rio suddenly asked. Ethan also stared at her.

Aisha heard her father but she herself doesn't know what to do. all she wanted to do is save the woman.

"We have to save her dad." She lightly uttered. "But then, how?"

"Knowing Silver, he will definitely guard her day and night." Rio voiced.

"We have an option." Rio and Aisha suddenly gaze at Ethan's direction.

"What do you mean?" Aisha wanted to know his thoughts.

"We can't possibly snatch her inside the hospital because it will cause an uproar. But we might be able to shake Silver using the golden egg." Ethan explained. "Though it's a risk. Anyway, it's your call."

"But if we use the golden egg to stir him up, our original plan will be compromised." Aisha answered.

"Yes, definitely. But it's your choice whether you want to save your mom and compromise the original plan." Said Ethan.

Aisha fell into silence. The golden egg is their major weapon against Silver. But if they use it to save Sherry then all their efforts will be in vain. No, they have to think of another way. There should be some other ways to save Sherry and push through with their plans against Silver.

"It's your call, Aisha." Rio supported Ethan.

"No, we can't let our efforts go to waste. we have to push through with the original plan. We can't compromise it. no, not now. as to saving Sherry, we might be able to find another way to do that." she straightened up.

"Do you have anything in mind?" Ethan asked.

"None yet. But we still have time to figure out some plans." She replied.

Ethan and Rio seems to be in deep thought as well as Aisha. we'll, they definitely need to think for other ways for now. Aisha is right, they can't compromise the original plan for now.

After a few more rounds of discussion, Ethan bade farewell from the two. Aisha then went to her room and tried to sleep her strained mind. However, to her disappointment, she can't sleep. Finally, she stood up and walk towards her closet and pulled a small box deeply hidden among her stuffs. She opened the box and brought out a butterfly bracelet.


Yes, it was the bracelet that her mom gave her when she was five.

"Protect what's important to you." her mom's memories echoed in her head.

"Protect what's important to me?" she mumbles. "Aisha, what are the things that are important to you right now? what's more important to you?" she was talking to herself.

Meanwhile, Demetrius went back to his room after Aisha went to her own room. he was contemplating about the options that Ethan had suggested. Indeed, they are sailing in between two rivers right now. one decision could either save or ruin someone so they need to choose wisely. Now, their greatest enemy is time and they need to act fast before it's too late.

"Cherry-Ann…" Rio whispered while looking at the vast sky. It's as if he can see the person whom he was talking to.

"Did you really regain your memory? do you remember your daughters? How about me, do you still remember me?" Rio has a lot of questions in his mind. But wait, why is he asking a lot of things? Is he still expecting the woman to return to him after all these years? Ah! He shook off his thoughts.

He should forget about his personal issues and just focus on helping Aisha deal with her problems. They need sherry to extend Stacy's life. yes, he needs to think about the true cause. He just wants to help his beloved daughter on her problems. That's it, nothing more, nothing less.

Whatever they had with Sherry before doesn't matter now. she chose her best friend Cole over him so he should have accepted that fact now.

After a few more hours of contemplating, his phone suddenly rang. He looked at the caller i.d. finally!

"What did you find out?" he immediately asked his man.

"Sir, the woman is still unconscious but the doctor said that she's out of danger now." the man reported.

"Do you know why they rushed her in the hospital?" he probed.

"According to my source, the woman slashed her wrist. The reason is still unknown."

Rio was stunned. She cut her own self? But why would she do that? as far as he knew, she will never dare to take her own life!

"Okay. thanks for letting me know. continue watching over her then." Rio voiced before he totally hung up.

"Sherry, why would you even do that?" he whispered.

***

She slowly opened her eyes when she sensed that the room was already empty. Then she looked around to inspect the surrounding. Ah, the place is unfamiliar to her. then that only means that she's out of Silver's house. As soon as she got a hold of the I.V drip, she instantly knew that she is in the hospital.

She smirked. But then she felt a stirring pain on her left wrist. She raised her hand to see it. ah yeah, her wrist. How could she forget about her stupid plan? However, it may be the only way for Silver to send her to the hospital. any other kind of sickness or plain injury will definitely be treated inside the house. So she doesn't have a choice but to risk cutting her wrist. Dang! that hurts.

She needs to scape by hook or by crook. Silver's selfishness is rising and she worries about her twin daughters. Also, the past days, she's being eaten by her wild imaginations. She wanted to know what happened to Stacy. She's worried since Stacy was a sickly child when she was still young. she easily gets sick and she has the frailest body among the twins.

Then she remembered Aisha. Ah, her brave, courageous and stubborn Erika. She will definitely do anything just to save her sister, that's for sure. And when she recalled that Aisha stole the golden egg from Ethan, she nearly panicked. Seems like fate isn't done messing with their fate yet.

"Please don't repeat the same mistake we did before, Erika…" Sherry shed a tear. "Please, don't."
