As I lay on the bed and opened my eyes, I stretched out my arms and yawned. I closed my eyes again and moved my hand to the side to see if I could feel Melina, but I couldn't.

Then I slowly opened my eyes wider. Then I saw that she was nowhere to be found. I closed my eyes and let out a breath as I thought about what was going on.

I didn't care, though. Before I let Melina into my head, I knew what I was getting myself into. I moved to the edge of the bed, sat up, and put on my slippers. My eyes were tired and itched. When I looked at the clock next to the bed, I saw that it was 2:46 p. m.

I stood up and said to myself, "Wow, I slept for almost four hours." When I looked in the mirror, I saw that my hair was rough.

I started to make it look fair when my stomach started to grumble and I realized I was hungry. When I left the room, I went to the living room.

There, Ryan was sitting on the couch and staring coldly at the TV.

I said, "Hey," and he turned to look at me while I looked for Melina and Agnes.

I asked, "Where are the women?" and he sighed.

He sipped his drink and said, "I don't know, but they seemed to be in a hurry when they left."

"What? They looked like they were up to no good, and you just let them go?" I asked in shock, and he laughed.

"They're old enough to make their own decisions, Jason. It's about time we stopped babysitting them," he said, and it was crazy.

"Tell me, Ryan. You're not yourself. Your humanity is still off," I said, and he breathed out of his mouth.

"Don't tell me you want to lecture me too," he said, and I sat down next to him.

"No, you're not. You're lonely, and you're afraid of how those feelings will take over you," I told her.

He asked, "Why do you always think that? Agnes said the same thing."

"Because it's true." I said.

"No, it's not. I just don't see why I should feel anymore. My mother died a horrible death, so why should I have to go down that painful path?" he said, and I sighed.

"I felt the same way, Ryan," I said. "But when I thought about Melina and how much she loved and supported me even when I was a d**k, I couldn't think of any other reason to keep living without feelings." He took another sip of his drink. "Ryan," I said, but before I could finish, the door opened, and Melina and Agnes came in.

"Melina!" I yelled quickly as I ran to her and gave her a hug. Don't be so dramatic, I really missed her.

I asked Agnes, "Where did you go?," and she left us alone so we could talk. She visited Ryan.

She told me, "I had to go to the hospital," and my eyes got big.

I asked, "What? Are you okay?" as I looked at her body.

She handed me an envelope that had already been opened and said, "You should see this." I quickly grabbed the paper and started reading out of fear.

When I read the news story again, my eyes got bigger, and when I looked up, Melina was smiling.

I was shocked when I told her, "If I'm not mistaken, you're pregnant." She nodded and smiled widely.

"Oh my God!" I yelled as I swept her off the ground and hugged her. I felt joy that I had never felt before in my whole life.

She laughed and said, "Jason, you're hugging me too tight." I let her go a little.

I yelled and punched the air, "I'm so happy, Melina! I'm going to be a dad!"

She said, "I had a second thought once that you might not be ready to be a father or that you might not even want one." I held her cheeks in my hand.

"No, never. Do you know how happy I am that you are carrying my baby? Our baby? You have made me the happiest man on the planet," I said as I kissed her again. Agnes said, "I'm so happy for you, Jason. You'll be the best father the baby could ever have."

Ryan said, "Well, I don't think that's true. If we have a baby now, when enemies are still everywhere, they will all want the baby." I sighed.

"I swear I'll kill anyone who touches her or my child," I said through clenched teeth.

Agnes whispered, "Ryan, that was too sharp," and he turned around and sipped his drink.

She said, "One more thing, Jason," with a serious face, and I got so nervous and scared at the same time.

"Tell me." I said.

She said with a sad face, "I need to get enough rest because I have high blood pressure and it's not good for the baby." I gave her another hug.

I told her, "You will get all the rest you need to keep our baby alive."

Ryan said, "Not as long as she is still in this house," and Agnes sighed as she looked at him. Ryan tried to be annoying, but everything he said made sense. Melina whispered, "You know Ryan is on the edge. Ignore him," and I shook my head.

"Actually, Gracie, all he's saying is the truth. He doesn't care how it will make us feel if he says it. You're not safe here with our baby," I told her.

She asked, "So, what should I do?" I smiled.

I took her hand and led her to her room, saying, "You should be ready now. That's what you should do. We'll talk about this later." She hadn't slept well since the morning. When I looked at her, I couldn't stop smiling because I knew she was going to have a beautiful baby. She smiled back, but then her smile went away, which made me nervous. "What is it, Melina?" I asked as the boy and I walked into the room and to the bed.

She said, "My name is Ryan Jason," and I carefully put her on her bed and covered her with the duvet.

I sighed and said, "Yeah, I know. He's a d**k."

"Agnes isn't happy, Jason, and Agnes is my only friend. If she's not happy, I'm not happy, no matter what," she said, and I let out a breath.

"Don't worry, Melin, we'll fix him," I told her.

"Jason, it won't be easy because he's stubborn. Agnes has tried everything she can think of, but he's still afraid to flip that switch. He's afraid he'll feel too much, so he decided to keep it the way it is," she said, and I agreed. "I totally get it, Melina. He's not ready, and that's why it's hard. That's why I came back to you. We need to show Ryan why he needs to turn on that humanity of his..."

She cut in, "And Agnes is the only chance," and I shook my head.

"All of us," I said, and she gave me a small smile.

I told Melina, "We need to make Ryan see again why it's important to be vulnerable, just like he did before." Melina's eyes opened a little as if an idea came to her.

She said, "Yes, I get it. You changed the first time because I got shot and because you loved me. Why don't we try the same thing with Ryan?"

"We can't, Melina. When Ryan flipped his switch that time, he had a revenge that killed two couples. The lady was the first person he fell in love with, but it was too bad she didn't love him back.

"She kept telling him lies until he found out for himself that she was having an affair with one of his men. Out of anger and rage, he killed them both, and then his humanity came on by itself." "Now you see that part is a dangerous and risky part. If we want to follow that, Ryan has to kill someone who hurt him," I told her, and she sighed heavily.

"Don't worry, Melina. I'll fix him. You should rest now because I need to talk to Agnes," I said, standing up and kissing her on the forehead.

As I walked out the door, I told her, "I love you."

I said, "I love you the most," and gave her another kiss.

We both went to the kitchen, where I brought down the things I needed to make lunch.

I made sure it was the same recipe as the one his mother made for him and that he said was his favorite.

"I know the recipe." He said and I smiled.

"Yes you do. You thought me right here that you loved it so much when you were a boy.

"I remember," he said with a smile, and I had hope again. If he could smile and not smirk this time, I was getting closer to the human in him.

"All we have to do now is follow the recipe..."

"So you can use money to get me to turn my switch. All right "I smiled at what he said.

"I don't care about your humanity switch, even though it's the strangest thing I've ever heard."

"It's okay to be a coward if you want to. I'm not giving up on you, though. Just like Melina didn't when Jason was acting worse.

"You will learn to love me, even if it takes time. I will win you back," I told Jason as I left the kitchen because I saw him there.

"I heard you, and I have to say, that was very brave of you," he said, and I smiled.

I told him, "I won't let him do this to himself, to us, or to the love we had for each other," and he agreed.

I told Agnes, "We won't let him go. He'd fight until he got him back, and I know how," and she looked very serious.

She said in a whisper, "Tell me."

"I realized that jealousy pushes him over the edge. We need to make him jealous, and you are the only one who can do that."

I told her, "You make these memories, and then we'll think of something that will push him over the edge." She turned to look at him. She said, "I will do anything to get Ryan back."
