Chapter 3 MAFIA'S HAIR CHAPTER 3

Nirvana's POV: Days turned into weeks, and Nirvana found herself consumed by thoughts of Brandon. The mysterious aura that surrounded him had only deepened their connection. She sat at her desk, staring at a history book that had been untouched for hours. Her mind was elsewhere, lost in a maze of emotions she couldn't decipher.

Brandon's POV: The days blurred together for Brandon. His responsibilities as both a doctor and "Phantom" left him with little time to rest, let alone reflect on his feelings for Nirvana. But every stolen moment with her replayed in his mind like a never-ending loop, a reminder of the light he desperately clung to amid the darkness.Their paths crossed again at the hospital, a place where Brandon's walls were built the highest. As he walked through the bustling corridors, his thoughts were on Nirvana, the girl who had managed to breach his defenses without even trying.

Nirvana's POV: She saw him from a distance, his figure standing out in a sea of white coats. Her heart raced at the sight of him, and a mixture of emotions surged within her. She was torn between the desire to confront him about the secrets he held and the fear of pushing him away.

Brandon's POV: His heart skipped a beat when he saw her, her presence like a balm to his weary soul. He mustered a smile, though he knew it didn't reach his eyes. "Nirvana, fancy seeing you here."

Nirvana's POV: She managed a smile, though it didn't quite reach her lips. "You act like you're surprised. Last I checked, this is where you work."

Brandon's POV: Her words held a playful edge, a reminder of the banter that had become a staple in their interactions. But beneath the surface, he sensed the tension that lingered. "Touché. How's the history world treating you?"

Nirvana's POV: She leaned against a nearby wall, her gaze steady as she studied him. "It's treating me well, but I can't help but feel like there's more to your world than meets the eye."

Brandon's POV: Her directness caught him off guard, his eyes narrowing as he assessed her. "Nirvana, I told you there are things I can't share right now."

Nirvana's POV: She folded her arms, her gaze unyielding. "Brandon, I don't want to keep playing this game. If you care about me, you'll trust me enough to be honest."

Brandon's POV: Her words struck a chord within him, the conflict between his desire to protect her and his longing for transparency warring within him. He sighed, his shoulders sagging slightly. "Nirvana, I care about you more than I've cared about anyone in a long time. But you have to understand-my world is dangerous.

"Nirvana's POV: Her heart ached at the admission in his eyes, the vulnerability he rarely showed. She took a step closer, her voice gentle. "Brandon, I'm not asking you to reveal everything. Just give me something, something to hold onto.

"Brandon's POV: He ran a hand through his hair, a habit that betrayed his unease. He exhaled, his gaze locking onto hers. "Alright, there's more to me than just being a doctor. My nights aren't spent idly. I have responsibilities that go beyond these hospital walls."

Nirvana's POV: She held his gaze, her curiosity piqued. "What kind of responsibilities?"

Brandon's POV: He hesitated, torn between withholding information to protect her and finally letting her in. "Nirvana, I'm part of something bigger-something dangerous. But I promise you, when the time is right, I'll explain everything."

Nirvana's POV: She nodded, her heart swelling with a mixture of relief and anticipation. "That's all I ask, Brandon. Just be honest with me."

Brandon's POV: The weight of his secrets hadn't lifted entirely, but the fact that he had shared even a fraction of the truth with her brought a strange sense of relief. He reached out, his fingers brushing against hers. "Thank you for understanding."As their fingers intertwined, the connection between them felt stronger than ever before. Despite the uncertainty that lay ahead, they both knew that the truths they were unraveling were bringing them closer together.

Nirvana's POV: She squeezed his hand gently, a smile tugging at her lips. "We'll figure this out together, Brandon."

Brandon's POV: His heart warmed at her words, the walls around his heart slowly crumbling. He leaned in, his lips brushing against hers in a tender kiss-a promise that they were in this together.As they pulled away, a moment of quiet understanding passed between them. Their journey was far from over, but they were willing to face whatever challenges lay ahead, hand in hand.Stay tuned for Chapter 4 as the story of "MAFIA HAIR" takes an unexpected.
