"Inara," Ivory calls her from her office, "Can you come here to check this?"
"What is it that you wanted to check with me?' Inara says coming to Ivory's office and is shoved inside, Abir closing the door behind her.
"You went to Zade's house yesterday? Abir questions her.
"Yes." Inara looks confused, "Why is that the hot topic for today?" she refers to Zade being weird too, asking about why she went to his home.
Honestly, Inara doesn't know why she went. She never really does that but she was feeling extremely thankful towards Zade and it sort of just happened.
"Who else knows?" Ivory interrogates.
"What do you mean? Of course, Zade and his fiancé would know." Inara was irritated because it was just a silly question. "What is up with you guys lately?"
"You have to stop this Inara," Abir warns her.
"Stop what?" Inara looks genuinely confused.
"Stop getting close to Zade. He is already engaged!" Abir yells that was so unlike his usual self. It takes both Inara and Ivory aback. As soon as those words came out of his mouth, he starts regretting them.
"You mean to say that I am stealing him from his fiancé?" Inara asks, sounding really heartbroken.
Lately, she feels like her emotions are all over the place. A tiny thing hurts her and she starts bawling her eyes out. That's why Zade found her in that park, crying. She doesn't know what was happening to her.
"That is not what he meant." Ivory tries to calm her down, "We are just looking out for you."
"How? By making me anti-social? By restricting me from making friends?" Inara sounds angry. Her emotions escalated real quick.
"It's not like what you think." Abir tries to calm her down. "He is just trouble."
"How?" Inara challenges him.
"Inara look." Ivory turns her to her side, "You have to lead a normal life. You have to try to get your memories back."
"And how am I supposed to do that?" Inara pushes her hands away, "By you guys restricting me whenever I talk to a guy? I know you are protecting me but this is just too much."
"Inara..." Ivory calls her but she stops her from talking further.
"No!" she yells, "No one needs my memories back more than me and you guys know it. You want me to lead a normal life but this isn't a normal life! You guys don't let me breathe at all!"
She leaves the office. Abir wants to follow her but Ivory stops him.
"Leave her. She needs some space."
"Do you think we are over-doing it?" Ivory asks Abir, guiltily.
"She will understand that we are doing this to protect her." He turns to Ivory, "We don't know what triggers her memories yet and we have to stop her from regaining them. You know if she gets her memories back, she gets her powers back too."
"Making it easier for Victor." Ivory nods.
"We have to take her hate to protect her. Enough till Kyros wakes up." Abir says and looks at Zade in the office across them, "I have already warned Zade about her. If he doesn't back off, we show him Victor's wrath."
Zade could hear Abir and Inara yelling in the office across him but it suddenly stops when Inara opens his office door, panting hard. She is gasping for air as Zade comes to her rescue.
"Inara! Inara!" he slaps her cheeks gently, "Are you okay?"
"It...it hurts....I....can't breathe....." she gasps for air before fainting in his arms.
"Quick! Someone call the ambulance!" he shouts at the crowd gathered.
