The next day, Amy still felt heavy, but she tried to carry on with her normal routine. She was still confused by what she had seen—the image of her father, a person who had long been absent from their lives, continued to haunt her mind.

As Amy looked out the window of their living room, she sensed something strange. Memories flooded back of the days when all she could think about was the death of her parents. She felt pain again, but alongside it, there was also longing. Amy couldn’t fully comprehend that her father was alive.

Suddenly, her phone rang. She glanced at the screen and saw Zack’s name. She quickly answered the call.

“Amy, I need to talk to you,” Zack’s serious voice came through the line. “Come to the office this afternoon.”

You didn’t show up," Vanessa complained, her voice filled with annoyance. "You really chose that woman over me? Oh my gosh, Zacky!" “Where are you?” Zack asked coldly, cutting off Vanessa’s rant.

When they arrived, he carefully laid her down on the bed. “Z-Zack, why is it so hot?” she mumbled, slipping out of her top, which caught Zack off guard. “Oh, come on, Amy, get dressed,” he said, though his voice was strained. “N-no, Zack, it’s just so hot…” she replied, her gaze meeting his with an intense longing. “Z-Zack… take me,” she whispered, drawing him closer as she pulled him into a kiss, which sent a shiver down her spine. “Are you sure, Amy?” he asked, his voice barely audible.
