"Darson! Wake up! Come on! Breakfast is ready." Arman was so excited when he ran to the guest room. It's been a long time since they last saw each other, and Arman looked so happy to be with him again.Amara winced when she heard footsteps rushing down the stairs like horses racing. Both of them were panting when they raced each other to the dining table. Seeing them get together so well makes Amara smile involuntarily. They truly looked like father and son."Amara, are you okay?" Darson asked when he noticed Amara staring at them."Huh? Yeah, I'm fine. Let's eat." She responded. Arman noticed that they both look like they were pooping themselves.The awkwardness in the air somehow dissipated when Arman started laughing out of nowhere. Amara's forehead creased, while Darson stared at him like he's from another planet. But, it didn't take long for both of them to laugh as well. The little boy's laughter is so contagious that they can't stop

It was the best dream she ever had. Being wrapped on the arms of the man who loves and respects her, the best feeling. If only it can come true. If only she can let herself be consumed by what she feels about Darson, but she can't."What the—oh, my God!" Amara exclaimed when she felt a masculine arm wrapped around her waist. Last was not a dream. It was all real. From the time that Arman left for school, until he came back, and after they had their dinner. All of it was real.She felt embarrassed, yet her heart is as calm as a lake water. The smell of mint and aftershave mixed perfectly with Darson's natural body scent. It smells like nature, and it soothes her senses.It's still early for her to wake, but she wanted to prepare breakfast for the two of them. Slowly and carefully, she removed his hand on her waist, and put on her robe. For sure, Arman is still asleep as it is still early for his classes. She was thinking of making some fried ric

Because of the arrest of the Higgins family, Amara has been the center of attention one more time. Many reporters wants to get the first one on one interview with her. Each one of them are like vultures circling her. They want to get her reaction, and test what she knows about the Higgins' crime empire.Darson stayed with them after being his parents for a day and a half. He wanted to make sure that someone is with them whenever those reporters horde outside her house. They were like zombies. No matter how hard the sheriff's officers try to push them away, they won't budge."The hell with these people! Why won't they just leave?" Darson exclaimed out of frustration. They've been watching the scene outside since this morning, and nothing changed since then. More than a dozen reporters are outside."Calm down, Dar. That's how reporters work. They need to be the first on every juicy scoop." Amara tapped his shoulder with a smile."Arman is ab

As the days goes by, the media attention on Amara and Arman slowly simmered down. Less and less reporters spend their time in front of their house which allow them to finally have their normal life.

His family now hates the fact that he's connecting himself on the complicated life of Amara. They were not happy when the rumors started that he was a secret partner of Amara who only kept quiet because of the money that they could get from the senator."Do you see how bad that woman is for you? Why can't you just stay away from her?" Emily, one of her older sister said angrily."Why can't you understand that I won't do that? Huh! She didn't anything to you!" He talked back with the same intensity.

Arman's POVI'm just watching them, that's why I know everything. Darson is getting jealous of Specia Agent McKnight. I can see how he looks at him like he wants to kill him already. Sometimes, I can't stop myself so I will laugh as loud as a I can. He looks stupid whenever he looks at him.Special Agent McKnight obviously likes Amara. He can say that he comes here at our house for official visits, but I know that the truth. I can see how he looks at Amara when she's not looking. I am not against anyone she wants, but personally, I like Darson more. He's nice to me, and I know that he loves her. But, Special Agent McKnight looks like a good man too."Arman, you're early. It's Saturday today. You don't have classes today." Amara's already downstairs preparing our breakfast."I know, I'm used to waking up early. Darson hasn't come yet?" I asked back."Not yet. You go ahead and watch the television.""Who do you like mor

But, I'm already deep inside the woods, yet I still can't find him."Oh, no! It's already night. I didn't tell anyone where I was going. Amara's crying now, that's for sure. I'm so stupid!"I don't know if I should go home or continue searching. Kyle and I played inside the woods for many times, but we've never reached this deep. I can hear the river, but I still can't see it. I don't even remember the way back. What am I supposed to do?That's when I hear whimpers nearby, followed by the rustling sound. I looked around, trying to see where it was coming from. Then, I saw this shadow. That's him!"Hey, doggie. It's me, don't be scared okay?"Slowly, I approached him. Here's to hoping that he won't bite me. I guess I'd think about ho
