Zach was not going too fast. He was quite good at riding the motorcycle. I did not know when he learned how. Some people seemed to have a lot of skills up their sleeves. Who knew when they mastered them? I could hear the sound of the wind, and it was music to my ears. Eventually, Zach stopped in an empty plot. He got down from the motorcycle and said, “Try it. It’s really easy to ride.” “You’re asking me to ride the motorcycle?” I looked at the big vehicle and felt that I would be able to ride it. “You’re so smart. Riding a motorcycle would be very simple for you. This is the accelerator. You just need to twist it slightly. Don’t you know how to ride an electric bike? It’s the same principle.” “But…” I was still hesitant. “Your birthday’s almost over. You still have 10 minutes left. Don’t you want to try something you’ve never tried before your birthday is over?” Zach successfully convinced me. I had temporarily forgotten that I was pregnant. I braced myself and too

As I fell, I thought that I would be going to hell since I was not a good mother.Then, I blacked out, like I was dead.When I regained consciousness, the back of my head hurt like crazy. I knew that I was still alive because a dead person would not feel pain.However, I could not open my eyes. All I could hear was the noise around me.Sophie’s angry voice was very clear. “Zach! You knew she was pregnant, yet you still let her ride a motorcycle! Are you trying to kill her or the babies?”This was followed by a loud slap; Sophie must have hit him.She had always been hot-headed. Even though she could not beat Zach, she would still swing at him.I wanted to open my eyes, but my eyelids felt glued shut.“Zach, if anything happens to Cassia, I swear I’ll stab you!” Sophie cried out.“Zach!” Mary said angrily. “What’s wrong with you? What the hell were you doing? Cassia’s pregnant! Why did you let her ride a motorcycle? You’re usually careful. What’s gotten into you?”It was noi

“Cassia, you’re awake?”“Hurry up and call the doctor.”“Cassia, does anything hurt?”I heard a lot of voices around me. I knew whom each belonged to, but I could not see their faces.I touched my face and felt around my eyes. There was nothing. The white film was not on my face but on my eyes.I was desperate to remove whatever it was blocking my vision. I tried to pull it away, but that did not work.Right then, someone grabbed my hand. “Cassia, what’s wrong? What are you doing?”It was Mary. Her hand felt warm, but I was freaking out.My voice quivered. “I can’t see.”The room went quiet for a second before I heard my mom’s panicked voice. “Doctor, check on her! My daughter says she can’t see!”“Let me take a look. Everyone, please leave the room.”Everyone left, so it was just me and the doctor.He pulled back my eyelids and gently asked, “Can you see anything?”“Just a white, net-like film.”“Can you see any shadows or shapes?”“No.”“Don’t worry,” the doctor sai

“Cassia.” It sounded like Sophie was crying. “D*mn it. You’ve been through so much.”“Watch your language. It’s not good for the babies,” I said. “Just leave for now.”After Sophie left with my mom, Eloise and the others followed suit.However, one person remained in my room. She sat by my bed and cried softly.I knew that it was Mary. She had to be feeling a mix of emotions.She was heartbroken and angry all at once.I reached out, and she immediately took my hand. “Cassia.”Her voice was filled with sadness.“Mary, it’s just temporary blindness. I’m not going to be blind forever. Besides, the babies seem okay, so it’s fine.”“You’re so strong, my child.” Mary got choked up.Yeah, I had always been strong—sometimes too strong for my own good.What else could I do? Things had happened, and I could not just die.Death was too scary, so every other bad thing did not seem as bad in comparison.Mary did not say much after that. She probably did not know what to say either.Sh

Being blind had its perks. I did not have to see Zach’s expression. I thought that he would just stand by and leave after a while. However, I heard him pull a chair over and sit beside my bed.I became flustered. “You can go. There are nurses and doctors here. The loss of sight won’t kill me.”After he sat down, he became silent like a statue.I should have kept quiet too. Anyone in this situation would be too sad to talk, but I was just rambling on. The talking helped to distract me from my worries. Just because I did not ask him anything did not mean I had not thought about it.What was Zach’s real reason for taking me on that motorcycle ride?Anyway, I was as strong as a madwoman. I would not even shed a single tear for myself.Eventually, I fell asleep. Being blind was so boring that I started counting the holes in the net-like film over my eyes. One, two, three… It was like counting sheep, and soon, I drifted off.While I was half-conscious, I felt someone touching my h

I could not tell if it was his blood or Zach’s.I felt him shaking, and I understood his anger. “Hayden, if fighting is how we solve problems, what kind of world would we have?”“Are you worried that I’ll kill him?”“I’m worried that he’ll kill you.” I held on to Hayden’s hand tightly. “I can’t see you. I don’t know how badly you’re hurt. You need to bandage that wound now.”My voice sounded calm. I felt much more at peace without being able to see.Conversely, Hayden was breathing heavily in front of me. He was usually a gentleman, and I rarely saw him angry.He seemed to only lose control whenever it concerned me. I realized that there were still people in this world who loved me deeply.I gently pushed him. “You need to go. Do you want to bleed out in front of me?”“It’s not serious,” Hayden said through gritted teeth. “Zach’s hurt a lot worse than I am.”“I don’t care about him. I only care about you,” I told him.Maybe my words had an effect because Hayden soon left the

Suddenly, I touched something wet that had not been there before.I felt around and realized that it was Hayden’s eyes.I was touching his tears. He was crying.Was he in that much pain?“Hey, real men don’t cry.”Then, Hayden hugged me tightly, so tightly that I could barely breathe.I could not see how sad he was, though.Sometimes, I thought being blind was good because it made things less awkward.I stretched out my arms, like a goose about to take flight.I could almost hear him sobbing. When I gently patted his back, he tightened his hold on me.“Cassia,” he called my name.I replied, “Yeah?”“Forget about Zach and be with me, okay?”I patted his head, and his hair felt much softer than Oliver’s.I was pregnant with twins, and he had confessed his feelings for me. I did not see why I should hesitate.“Okay. Once I’m out of the hospital and feeling better, we’ll date,” I said.“Really?”“Really. Just remember that I’m blind and pregnant, so don’t regret it.”Ha

“What do I need sympathy for? Can I eat it?”I did not need anyone’s pity. What good would it do me?It was not like I would be blind forever. Even if that was the case, I still had to live.I finished my soup, and Sophie went to wash the dishes. After a while, I heard her whispering with the nurse at the door.I caught Zach’s and Hayden’s names.So, I called her back in. “What’s going on?”“Nothing.”“If you don’t tell me, I’ll make you regret it.”Sophie sighed. “Hayden punched Zach and messed up his eye. His retina got detached, and he needs surgery. Some nosy doctor reported it, and the police just took Hayden in.”I shot up in bed, but Sophie held me down. “Hey, you’re hooked up to the IV. If you move too much, the needle’s going to come out.”“It’s that serious?”“Are you worried about Zach or Hayden?”“Isn’t it obvious? Figure out what’s going on. Hayden just got his job back. He can’t lose it over this.”“I don’t know who’s unluckier—you or Hayden,” Sophie muttered

Sophie knocked on my door the next day around 7 a.m.I only managed to fall asleep at about 2 a.m., so I had a bad headache. I sat on the bed as she ran over excitedly and asked, “Are you busy this morning?” “Go away.” I lay down again. “Come to the city hall with me. I’m getting married!”“Why do you need me there? Am I going to breastfeed you?”“You don’t have milk right now.” I was disgusted by our conversation. Rachel sat up from the bed and asked, “Why are you going to the city hall?”“To get married.”“Shouldn’t you be going to a church for that? There’s supposed to be a priest with a bible that asks if you’re willing to marry this person next to you regardless of… something?”“That’s a religious wedding. Besides, it has to be lawful. What we’re doing today is the legal side of things.” Sophie carried Rachel up from the bed. “Do you want to be a witness to our marriage?” “Yay, sure!” Rachel immediately beamed and agreed. “I want to be the priest who holds the bibl

Cecilia had no shame at all. I would be speechless if this worked on Zach. After a while, she walked out dejectedly with her flowers. It seemed like she did not even manage to enter his office. She stood there in annoyance for a while before she suddenly looked over in my direction. I could see her, but she might not be able to see me. I was on a high floor, and the sun was blinding. Right then, Hailey gave me a call. I knew that she wanted to rant about Cecilia. Sure enough, Hailey started to complain, “Ms. Freeman, Cecilia is really shameless. I’ve never seen such a shameless woman. When Mr. Gordon was cut off from Gordon Corporation, she abandoned him immediately. Now that she knows he’s going to be Gordon Corporation’s acting CEO, she instantly starts visiting him again. I really can’t stand her.” “Hasn’t she always been like this?” I was unfazed. “Fortunately, Mr. Gordon is not willing to see her.” Hailey sounded relieved. “Do you really think he won’t see her fo

I looked at Austin’s pale face, and I was at a loss for words. His argument was reasonable, and I had no way to refute it. I was upset, but I could not cry. I felt a heavy feeling in my chest, and I found it hard to breathe. He looked at me and suddenly smiled. “Look at your face. Have I ever said that I liked Sophie? I don’t like girls like her. I prefer girls like you who are smart, beautiful, and decisive. Why don’t you marry me after you give birth to your babies?”I did not want to joke around with him. It was not funny.After that, Lucy exited the bridal shop and got into the backseat of the car. I stood in front of the bridal shop and watched as his car disappeared into the corner. “Cassia,” Sophie called out to me. I turned around. “What?”“Whose side are you on? I realize you’ve been extra nice to Austin recently. Have you forgotten that he’s a jerk?”“Watch your mouth.”I got into my car unhappily. “I’ll make a move first.”“Aren’t we having dinner together to

I knew that he was looking at the photos of him and Sophie in her wedding gown. Perhaps this would be the only time in his entire life that he could stand next to Sophie while she was dressed in a wedding gown. I felt the waterworks coming. When I tried to look for tissue papers in my bag, Zach called me. He sounded a bit excited. “Cassia, there’s this person overseas who has the same blood type as Austin. He has ALS, which is a fatal motor neuron disease. His family has already signed an organ donation form for him, and his condition recently worsened. He may pass in a month’s time, so I got in contact with them. His family has agreed to donate his heart to Austin.” “Really?” It was good news, and I almost leaped in joy. I glanced at Austin excitedly. He was staring intently at his phone, so he did not notice me. “Does Austin have to leave immediately?”“It’s still early. We can leave when the donor’s condition worsens.” I estimated the time. Zach said that it would ta

Sophie could easily start a fight wherever she went. I immediately went over and saw that Austin’s forehead had turned red. It seemed to be getting swollen. I kicked Sophie in anger. “Is there something wrong with you? What are you doing?” “Why did you kick me? Didn’t you hear what he just said?”Austin bent down and picked up Sophie’s phone for her. “Luckily, your phone screen isn’t cracked. It’s fine if my skull is cracked; it can heal.” Sophie took her phone, and it immediately unlocked due to face ID. Her wallpaper was a photo of Kingston and her. She had just changed the wallpaper yesterday. It used to be a photo of me and her. Austin was the one who had taken that photo. Even though Austin was not directly in the photo, it felt like it was a photo of the three of us. He must have noticed it. He smiled and said, “I’ll make a move. Tell Lucy I’ll be waiting for her in the car.” Austin walked out of the bridal shop, and Sophie looked dispirited. “I was quite happy, bu

“You’re getting married too?”“I’ll be your best man or maid of honor. What? You’re too cheap to pay for the outfits?”“You, my best man?”“Look around you. Are there any single people left?”Sophie rolled her eyes. “Hah, I wasn’t planning on inviting you.”Kingston tried to shake Austin’s hand, but Austin ignored him. Sophie got mad and pulled Kingston away. “Don’t pay attention to him. He thinks he’s too good for anyone. He’s crazy.”“Sophie,” I warned.“What? He’s always acting crazy!” she yelled.I was not sure if Austin really wanted to be Sophie’s best man, or if it was just an excuse to come here.Anyway, Austin went to change too. I could not tell the difference between the best man’s and groom’s outfits. However, the difference between the bridesmaid and bride was clear.While Sophie was posing in front of the mirror in her wedding dress, Austin came out of the fitting room.Austin was very thin, and the suit hung loosely on him, but it still looked good.He had a

Sophie’s wedding preparations were progressing quickly. She limped to work in the mornings and dragged me along in the afternoons to buy wedding stuff.I felt like the wedding was just an excuse for her to go shopping.“This afternoon, Kingston and I are trying on our wedding outfits. You should come too.”“It’s your wedding. Why should I come?”“To help me choose! I look good in everything, so it’s hard to pick.”“If it’s that hard, just buy them all. Aren’t you rich?”“Why are you so grouchy?” She leaned closer and observed me. “Cassia, are your hormones off balance?”“I’m pregnant, so everything’s a mess right now.”After some thought, I called Austin and told him, “Sophie’s trying on wedding dresses this afternoon.”“Okay,” he replied in his usual lifeless tone.“Aren’t you going to say anything to her?”“Don’t eat too much. The wedding dress will be a pain to alter.”I was so angry that I hung up. He was so stubborn. I was sure that he would regret it and cry later.M

Austin was the weakest among us when we were kids. He could not climb trees, run, or do anything physically demanding. Instead, he would play board games and puzzles with us.Sophie always thought that he was smart, and she admired him.I never imagined that someone I grew up with might die so soon.“You should leave,” he said weakly. “She should be done by now.”“Austin.” I wanted to say something more, but he turned his back to me.He did not want to listen, so I had no choice but to leave.As I reached the door, I heard him say, “Actually, this is a good thing.”Was he saying that Sophie marrying Kingston was a good thing?What was good about it?I felt like grabbing Sophie over. I wanted to point at the dying man in bed and say, “This guy loves you more than you know. He helped you test Kingston’s character. He thinks about you all the time. He comes to see you every night using his half-sister as an excuse, but he’s dying. He doesn’t want you to be sad, so he plans to die

“I just went for a checkup.” Austin walked over to me. “Why are you sweating so much?”He took a handkerchief out of his pocket and gave it to me. Honestly, only Austin would still carry a handkerchief in his condition.I wiped my sweat. “I came with Sophie to get her cast off, and I thought I’d stop by to see you.”“Get her cast off? I thought that wasn’t until next month?”“She insisted on getting it off today. The doctor checked, and her bone is healing well, so it’s fine for her to take it off.”“When did she start caring so much about her looks?” Austin walked back to his room, and I followed him.He sat down and seemed a little out of breath. I had already asked the doctor about him. Austin could not engage in any physical activity; he could not even walk fast.I was about to pour him some water, but he waved me off. “Don’t bother. I’m not thirsty. How could I let you take care of me? I might be a patient, but you’re pregnant.”At least, he could still joke. If I were him
