Henry let out a long, tired sigh as he sat alone in his room. The only sound was the slow whir of the ceiling fan above him. His mind wandered back to earlier, how Cassia had ignored him… and then Martinez too. He decided to brush it off, letting his thoughts drift to his time in the States. Everyt
Nora's scream sent Adams and Bridget rushing into her room, alarmed. They exchanged a quick, worried glance as their eyes landed on the broken television. "Are you hurt?" Bridget asked with concern, hurrying toward Nora, who was trembling, tears streaming down her face as if they’d never stop. Ada
Cassia was just finishing her meal when her phone buzzed on the table. An unfamiliar number appeared on the screen. She hesitated, glanced at Liam, who was looking at her, and then, after a brief moment of indecision, she answered the call. "Hello?" Her voice came out hesitant, as though she feared
Cassia couldn’t stop gasping. Her hand was still over her mouth, her heart pounding so hard in her chest that she could hear it in her ears. The sight in front of her was horrifying; blood everywhere, broken glass on the ground, and Stacy lying still behind the cracked windshield. It felt like a ni
The night felt like it was moving in slow motion. Darvan lay on his bed, staring up at the ceiling while the room stayed completely dark. The ticking clock on the wall seemed to sound louder than usual, each second dragging on forever. He felt sleep creeping in, his eyelids getting heavy. But he di
The night felt like it would never end. Cassia sat quietly in the cold hospital corridor, leaning against the wall. Her eyes were tired, but she couldn’t sleep. The only sounds were the quiet footsteps of nurses passing by. Liam sat a few seats away, staring at his phone without really looking, whi
By the time the car stopped in front of Justin's house, the sky was starting to turn from dark to light blue. Everything was quiet, the streets were empty, and the morning air felt a little cold. Frederick opened the car door, letting out a sigh as he stepped out. "Thanks for the ride." he murmured
Mrs. Sinclair froze. Her breath caught in her throat as Darvan’s words echoed in the room. She couldn’t speak. Her hands trembled slightly, but she quickly hid them behind her back. Her eyes locked with his, and for the first time, there was something raw in her expression… something she hadn’t sh
Marc inhaled deeply as he sat beside Stacy’s unconscious body. Machines beeped steadily, reminding him that despite the silence, she was alive. If not because of Fredrick who texted him about the incident, until now, he'd have been clueless. He watched her face, pale and still, her breath barely m
Adams didn’t waste another second. The moment Henry walked out of the store, blood still fresh on his lips and that mocking grin still etched on his face, Adams went after him. He didn’t care about the things he wanted to buy. Didn’t care about the people staring or the mess they left behind. He ne
Cassia blinked, trying to take in what he said. “If your mom really had something to do with this... then maybe Martinez was innocent?” she mumbled, but Darvan caught it. He looked at her. “You think he didn’t do it? Did he say anything?” Cassia sighed and sat down on the couch. “I don’t even know
“So she erased my memory?” Darvan murmured to himself, lowering his gaze, as if the explanation had confirmed something he wasn’t ready to accept. “Why do you ask? Are you considering undergoing the procedure?” the doctor asked, pushing his glasses down the bridge of his nose as he tapped the back
The phone rang once, twice… and just as Cassia was beginning to lose her patience, Martinez picked up. “Cassia?” His voice was low, almost hesitant, as if afraid to say her name. She swallowed. “Good morning.” She greeted him, but he didn’t reply. “Have you thought about it? I—” “How did you
