In the morning, Anthony arrived at his office and found a white envelope on his desk with his name written on the surface of the envelope. He grabbed the envelope and opened it quickly. Three photos fell on his desk as Anthony poured out the envelope's contents. His blue eyes narrowed as he stared at the images in the photos.

“Dammit. Who did this?”

Those were photos of him and Shanon on the night of the university anniversary party. Lucky for him, because there were no photos showing him kissing Shanon or when they made the whole car shake because of their crazy lovemaking in the car. But the photos were able to give rise to negative speculation because he was clearly with his students and he allowed the students to get into his car. That was something he had never done before.

With anger rising to the top of his head, Anthony called his assistant quickly. He needed to find out who was behind the photos and what his purpose was. He hoped that none o

    The sound of the music was pounding and Sarah's loud screams in the back seat were able to deafen anyone in the car. Shanon looked back and laughed at Sarah and Stevan's ridiculousness. They compete to eat the most nuts and drink the beer the fastest."I'm sure they'll be drunk when they get to the campsite," Jordyn commented while remaining focused on driving.“I think so too. Sarah had downed three bottles of beer. Really crazy.""But I applaud her because she can still sit up straight without the slightest sway."“She's great.”“Wow, I won. You lost, my baby darling. Fifty dollars!” Sarah stretched out her palm right in front of Stevan's face, which was starting to turn red.“Tsk, you cheated. You knew that I wouldn't win against you, but you placed such a high bet.”“Quickly give me fifty dollars.”Stevan pulled fifty dollars out of his wallet and threw the money in Sara

    Anthony pulled the gear lever in P as soon as he arrived at his destination. He could see two SUVs, one sedan and one jeep, parked around the camping site. The tents had been set up, and he could see the smoke from the campfire rising into the air.Anthony rubbed his face roughly as he stared at his reflection in the mirror. He told himself that he did this not because of Shanon, but because he wanted to make sure his students didn't do anything deviant while camping in the forest.Yeah, keep lying to yourself, dude.“Fuck!”Sick of hearing his inner demons mock him, Anthony stepped out of the car and slammed the door hard. The soles of his shoes stepped on the small pebbles on the ground and created sharp crunching sounds. He checked the surrounding tents one by one and found no one. Anthony scoffed at how careless the students were for leaving their belongings unattended in the tent. They did not know the dangers that might arise ar

    “Coffee, sir.”"Thanks."Jordyn took his place next to Anthony and took a sip of his coffee. They have the same object to look at. Shanon. Her condition was better and she was sitting in front of the campfire with Sarah. They laughed and told each other jokes that only they knew. Shanon's palms held a mug. Guess it was hot chocolate. Anthony knew quite a few things about Shanon because of the business marriage. Shanon preferred chocolate to coffee. Shanon kept a stock of bitter chocolate in the refrigerator as a snack when her period came. Shanon liked sweet food, but when it came to chocolate, she preferred, and really liked, bitter chocolate. Apart from that, there were several other things about Shanon that Anthony began to know. He was a good observer. And he would keep it that way.Anthony stared at Shanon in amazement because an hour ago Shanon was still curled up in his arms, scared and cold. And now, she looked like a normal girl who had neve

    “One sandwich and orange juice please.”Shanon smiled at Agnes, the cafeteria cook. She is everyone's favorite and a good mother to all campus residents. Agnes always gave large portions of food to everyone, especially the students who looked thin. Agnes never married and had children. That's why she dedicated her entire life to feeding students like they were her own children.“Hey, Anne. Get Ms. Wilson's order.”“Aye aye madam.”A girl with a ponytail made a salute gesture at Agnes. The girl smiled at Shanon before she went back to work preparing her order.“Hi, sweetie. Nice to see you show up at my counter again. It was a terrible incident.” Agnes leaned her elbows on the counter and gave a sincere sympathetic look.“Yes, I must admit that it was terrible. And I am grateful to be standing here to eat your incredibly delicious food.”Shanon had to get used to the sudden po

    Shanon held Avery's cold palm and smiled gently at her sister. She was happy to be able to visit her sister again in between her busy schedule at college and being Anthony's wife. She still couldn't tell Anthony about Avery. That's why she couldn't go to visit Avery freely. But she always made sure Avery's weekly hospital bills were paid.“Hi, Ave. You look increasingly pale and gaunt. When do you wake up? I really miss you"Shanon imagined that the sound of the cardiograph was Avery's voice. The device was connected directly to ger heart. Shanon's stupid imagination imagined that Avery was talking through tubes connected to her heart.“You know, the man who was supposed to marry you wasn't as bad as I imagined. Yesterday, he took me to dinner at a fancy restaurant to celebrate my success because I got the highest score in his course exam. You know, it means a lot to me. It's been a very long time since we ate an expensive meal in a fancy restaurant.

But when she arrived at his office, Anthony wasn't there. Shanon then went home and hoped to find Anthony alone in his study, but again she failed. Anthony wasn't home. The house was still the same as the last time she left it before going to the hospital to visit Avery.As day turned to night, Shanon became increasingly worried because there was not a single call or incoming message from Anthony. Shanon waited in the living room anxiously. At nine p.m, Anthony had not yet come home. Shanon decided to look for Anthony at several clubs around Boston. He probably decided to go to the club and have fun with the bitches. Or Anthony might take out his anger on booze. She once saw Anthony half drunk in his mini bar.“Where are you, Anthony?” Shanon clutched her cell phone in frustration.Anthon

    Anthony walked straight along the deserted literature department corridor. His steps were so calm and full of confidence. The smell of old books and dust filled his senses as he turned right towards the storage room. He pressed his palm against the rough surface of the door. His eyes moved to the right, feeling the presence of someone around him. At the count of three, Anthony turned quickly and ambushed his stalker before dragging her into a dusty old storage room.“You should take my words more seriously, Jane.”Anthony pressed Jane's back against the wall with his strong arms. Jane winced in pain when she felt Anthony twist her wrist and her chest tightened from the pressure of Anthony's elbow.“Hi, baby. You surprised me.”“No need to pretend in front of me. You were spying on me all this time, huh?”“No. I just happened to see you in my department. I wanted to greet you."“Bullshit. I know

    Anthony removed Shanon's arm from his chest slowly so as not to disturb her sound sleep. He rubbed his face roughly to get rid of the sleep that still hung in his eyes. The clock still showed three o'clock. He got out of bed and put on his pajama pants which Shanon had thrown away a few hours ago and fell under her dressing table.His cell phone was still ringing noisily on the sofa. That was the reason why he decided to get up from Shanon’s warm bed, because he was worried that the sound of his cell phone ringing would disturb Shanon's sleep."What's wrong, Ben?"“Sir, I have bad news.”"What is it?"Anthony was starting to get used to bad news since his parents died. He realized that good and bad things always go hand in hand in the world. He couldn't live with only the good things and leave the bad things behind.“Mr. Jefferson just died.”I told you, he wasn't surprised at all. In fact, Anthony had be

    "Turn right."“No. We still have to walk straight over there.”“But I want to see the baby crib here.”"There is a baby shop that makes the best quality baby cribs there."Shanon folded her arms across her chest. Her eyes narrowed at Anthony.“Well, I keep forgetting the fact that I'm going to marry a man who bathes in a thousand dollar soap. You obviously couldn't possibly buy a baby crib at Ikea.”“Don't be so skeptical about my life, Shanon. I just want the best for my son.”“I know, I know.

    “Deal.”“Nice doing business with you, Mr. Maddock.”Avery held out her hand to shake Tim Maddock's hand. They ended the meeting with satisfied smiles on each of their faces because they managed to reach an agreement on their next project. Tim Maddock then walked away, leaving Avery who still remained in the restaurant to pack up her things.“Avery? What a coincidence, huh?”Avery looked up. She just gathered the documents and put them in the briefcase. Her face lit up when she saw who had just greeted her.“Jordyn. Hey, what are you doing here?”“Umm... Lunch. Actually, it's not really lunch. I only ordered coffee because I was trying to build a good image in front of people I had just met.”“So, do you want to have lunch with me?

She welcomed the day with joy and the promise of a better future. Every morning she woke up and realized the fact that she was Anthony's fiancé. Formally. There was no secret. Everyone knew for sure that she belonged to Anthony, and vice versa. Just imagining it, her life became lighter than before. Negative thoughts disappeared in an instant from her brain."Good morning."“Hi, princess. You look really excited.”Shanon kissed her sister's cheek briefly. Avery had been sitting at the dining table since seven o'clock. She was ready in a formal suit, a black bag sat on the empty chair next to her, and she had a cup of coffee on the table.“I'm always excited.

    I apologize....Shanon turned off her phone before she read the entire message Anthony had just sent her. Just seeing the word at the opening of the message, she could already guess that the message would end badly. Something like, Anthony couldn't be there on her graduation day and couldn't see her throw her cap in the air.“He sucks,” Shanon muttered under her breath.She squeezed her phone before stuffing it into her bag.She and hundreds of students from various departments were gathering in the main hall of the university to celebrate their graduation. Shanon had worn her best dress along with a black robe and academic cap. Avery put on light make-up and put on soft pink lipstick, which made her look even more stunning. Unfortunately, Anthony couldn't come to complete her happiness today. Though she really hoped that Anthony would come to see her go up on stage and make a speech on behalf of the hun

    “Cheers.”“Oh man, is this party necessary?”“Of course it is necessary. Let's have a toast.”Shanon lazily clinked her glass with Sarah's. Hers had apple juice, while Sarah's had beer. Her house was very noisy tonight because Sarah and Jordyn threw a party to celebrate her graduation. Shanon officially completed her master's program and graduated with the best grades. They insisted on celebrating with a party because Shanon deserved the best graduation party. An hour ago, they came to her house with three boxes of pizza, several boxes of Thai food and Chinese food. They also ordered fries and burgers. The living room table had turned into a party table with a variety of food that they couldn't possibly finish that night.“I feel like you guys shouldn't throw me a party.”Shanon looked at Anthony with a frown. Anthony had just arrived after Sarah called him to join them. Anthony didn't need to think t

You're my best friend. I wouldn't have been able to get through all of this without you.”“We love you, Shanon.”Shanonh turned to look at Jordyn. She then snuggled into his warm embrace."Wish me luck."Shanon walked into the hall with extremely impressive calm. The campus council and lecturers had gathered in the hall to test her. They were all there, except Anthony. Shanon was sad because she couldn't see Anthony this morning in the hall. But, an hour ago they had spoken on the phone. Anthony regretted that he couldn't be there for her when the campus council chewed her out. Anthony promised to always support her from afar.“Are you ready, Shanon?”“Yes, Mr. Angelo.”

Those damn campus councils? They won't hear you. They are busy crushing Anthony and Shanon.”“Where are your manners? Call him Professor Bruce.”"Not anymore. He was no longer a professor since the rusty campus board fired him. They stripped Anthony of all his titles. Now, he is just an ordinary guy. Without any title.”"You must be kidding."“Do I look like I'm kidding now?”Jane studied the woman's face closely and she suddenly snapped her fingers.“I know who you are. You're from the economics department. You're one of Anthony's students. I see you always stick with the other woman."
