SOUL TANGLE THE GLEE
Ayana counted in shock and confusion. Was she that poor charging that the woman had to overpay?“1200$ for these,” the woman spoke, and Ayana looked at her. “And 800$ as a down payment for the order that I will give you. Our house is a bungalow, and we want it filled with more of these.Ayana felt like screaming her lungs out, thanking the heavens for favoring her that way. “I don’t know what to say, ma'am. Thank you so much for trusting in me. I promise to do a good job for you.” She said.“You don’t need to promise anything. Your good and hardworks is speaking for yourself. So, can I have your card for communication purposes? I might also need to describe what I need next to blend with these. I hope you can work according to my needs. And I am not saying I don’t like what you have made. I could buy them all if I could. Just that…”“It is okay, ma'am! I make whatever you like. I understand what you mean, honestly. As for the card, I can only give you my number for now. But next time,
SOUL TANGLE CRITICISMS
As Grace approached with a disdainful expression, Ayana felt a pang of anger deep within her chest. After months of being away, the hate Grace had for her was palpable. And it was not like Ayana’s own had faded too.Grace's disbelief in Ayana's artistic pursuits had always been a source of tension between them. While Ayana poured her heart and soul into her paintings, Grace often scoffed at her dreams, dismissing them as impractical and unrealistic. She had never understood Ayana's passion for art, viewing it as a mere hobby rather than a legitimate career path.As Grace drew closer, the bitterness in her eyes was palpable, casting a shadow over the joyous atmosphere that had enveloped Ayana and Adam. Ayana braced herself for the inevitable confrontation, knowing that her sister's disapproval would only serve to dampen her spirits.

SOUL TANGLE A NIGHT OF WORRY
That night, Adam and Ayana settled in bed after seeing Lyana go to bed as usual. They were practically living together in Adam’s luxurious home. Her house was still there, and they could sometimes go there together and spend time there. But most of the time, they were at his house. The nights were much sweeter and more tranquil in his house. Since none of them had any complaints, his house had served as a beacon every night. They lay side by side in the dark, waiting for a nap or a spark. But the night seemed to be on the run, and the spark was nowhere near them. Each was lost in the events that had folded into the exhibition, wondering what the morning would bring for them. Did the world already know of Adam’s secret? Was the world already judging him? Judging them? How far had the news gone? Was it something that would rip them apart? “Can’t sleep?” Adam asked, flipping Ayana over to him. He could sense it. She was as troubled as he was. The most mesmerizing thing was that none of
SOUL TANGLE THE NEWS
As Adam and Ayana stirred awake to the soft glow of morning light filtering through the curtains, they were met with an unexpected barrage of notifications on their phones. With a sense of trepidation, they reached for their devices, only to be confronted with the glaring headlines and sensationalized images that flooded their screens.Their hearts sank as they beheld the breaking news: candid photos captured from the night of the exhibit, plastered across every news outlet and social media platform. The images depicted Ayana locked in an intense gaze with her sister, Grace, their expressions fraught with tension and rivalry. Yet, amidst the chaos, there was another set of images that pierced through the noise—snapshots of Adam and Ayana, their bodies entwined in a tender embrace, captured in a moment of unguarded affection.The contrast between the two sets of images was stark, highlighting the complexities of their relationships and the tangled web of emotions that now engulfed them

Yet, as they entered the familiar surroundings, Ayana sensed an undercurrent of hostility brewing beneath the surface. Well, it was something she had gotten used to, so it did not surprise her much. She knew she was so unwelcome, but who said she needed to be? She was there to make a point, and she would do it no matter the reception.Jumping out of the car, she did not have to walk further. She could see the bunch of her oppressors basking in the morning sun as if they had not committed any crimes.

And their expressions changed the moment they saw her face, with Adam hugging her h

She had spent years piecing together the fragments of her past, struggling to unearth the truth buried beneath the lies they had woven so meticulously.But now, as she confronted them with her unwavering defiance, Ayana saw through their facade. Their attempts to shield her from the harsh realities of her history had only fueled her determination to uncover the secrets they sought to hide.With each passing moment, the walls they had built around her past crumbled a little more, revealing the raw truth lurking beneath the surface. Yet, despite their guilt and apprehension, her parents remained resolute in their refusal to surrender to her demands.Ayana squared her shoulders, her resolve unyielding.

SOUL TANGLE ARROGANT STRANGER
As Ayana carefully made her way down the bustling street, a sense of purpose filled her stride. She clutched the bundle of paintings she had poured her heart into, eager to deliver them to Mrs. Jones, a local art enthusiast who had commissioned her work. She was the same client from the exhibit, and true to her words, she had called a few days later and explained what she wanted to Ayana. And that day, even if the steam of what had happened at the exhibit was still on, Ayana had an obligation to fulfill, and that was delivering her masterpieces.Adam would have come with her, but there was a meeting at Lyana’s school, and he had gladly and voluntarily offered to go. However, his agreement with Ayana was that she would patiently wait for him until the meeting was over so that he could drive her to Mr. and Mrs. Jones house. But she was enthusiastic to wait. Every second felt like a failure of her professionalism, until her ass could no longer settle on the couch.She had set off and hai

SOUL TANGLE PERFECTED BY THE IMPERFECTIONS
“Hey! “ Lian spoke with her signature smile, of course. “Why don’t we first stop by calling it a sin? Let us just say that it was casual sex done for the wrong reasons and at the wrong place. But all in all, we were adults, and we both proved a point that day. Of course, it hurts, just a little, because you did not offer exactly what I wanted. But if anything, Adam, I want you to know that I wouldn’t waste a chance with you even now if I had it. I am not ashamed to be on the list of, you know, all of those you have been with.” She then looked at me. “I am sorry to say this too, but at least I got to taste the famous Adam Stone De’Leon!” She smiles, and I think I am beginning to love her smile now. Eyes roll! “You are lucky, Ayana. You both are lucky to have each other. And this is where I wanted to be—to have you look at me the way you are looking at her, with so much love and adoration. Your eyes speak submission every minute they brush her. Even a fool can tell you love her so much.
SOUL TANGLE THE ISSUE OF FORGIVENESS
“What, son?” His father asks.“The merger that you seek with the De’Marios will happen.” Excuse me, what? I snap at him, and I was just to give him a piece of my mind, but a gentle squeaaze of my hand sealed my lips, opting to trust him, hoping that he knows that these bunch of heartless fools do not deserve to benefit even just one bit from me. “But not on the grounds of my marriage to Ayana!”Fantastic! Bingo! God, I so love this man!Eyes flickered on each other for a long moment of screaming silence, until my father had to break the lull. Desperate old man! “What are you talking about, son? You know you are really growing desperate by the day here. And now, we have damages to pay to the Adrianos for what Grace did. Things are weighing down on us, Adam! So, what do you suggest?

SOUL TANGLE THE PEACE MAKER
After a long, unnerving moment, the door opens again and freezes on our spot as our house is swamped with people.Yeah!People!And I am not talking about two or three people here, no! This weird woman is the weirdest of all because, how did she pull all these?And yeah, before I forget, I am not talking about just any other people. Not some ordinary people.

SOUL TANGLE HE AIN'T A RAPIST
“You got my information from my parents? How? When? Why?” I ask.She steadies herself. “It wasn’t intentional. It just so happened that you both were the reason why some dark secret that was kept in the dark for years was leaked out. Our families, the Adrianos, the De’Leons, and the De’Marios had to meet because that was a breach of contract!” She speaks.I get everything about the dark secret and the urgency for the two families to meet, and I can also understand that tabgle. But breach of contract? What was all about that?“Breach…” I throw Adam a glare to ask for clarity, but he seems clueless and lost like I am, so I decide to ease both our curiosities. “Breach of contract? What contract?”“Yes,” she says, throwing Adam a glance, and she speaks, looking at him as if the words were only meant for him. Wasn’t I the one who asked the damn question here? “Our families, the De’Leon’s and the Adriano’s, after settling for compensation and agreeing to bury all that had happened, signed a

She is harmless. Harmless, huh?What is this?Why did she come here?“I know who you are,” I murmur, hoping that we don’t have a problem here, but how stupid of me to think, no, to actually hope for that? Why would he come here if there wasn’t fire in the mountain? “Wha…what are you doing here?” I ask.As Adam composes himself and approaches, his trembling hand clasping my waist reveals the struggle within him. It's not merely a physical tremor, but a manifestation of the turmoil in his soul.

SOUL TANGLE MORNING GUEST
The chirping of the early morning birds calls me out of my peaceful sleep. I peel my eyes, and they almost impair with a striking, sharp pain as they collide with the savage rays of the morning sun. I shut them for a minute, but when I don’t feel those strong arms around me, I peel them open in a flash, turning around. Empty space! That explains why the widow's curtains are open, permeating the savage sunrays. He woke up before me. That has never been him. I always wake up enveloped in his arms every single day of the six months that we have been together. What changed? Is it because of that question from last night? This marriage issue? After he asked me that, and after I failed to come up with a straight answer, I just laid my head on his chest and snuggled into his warm embrace. He understood the memo, which meant I was not ready for that kind of conversation. And he respected it, just like he has always done. He pulled me closer and tighter, and we drifted off to sleep. Did I

SOUL TANGLE A SITUATION TURNS INTO A WEAPON
Ayana's anger flared, fueled by the woman's bitter accusations. "What I meant was," she retorted, her voice trembling with fury, "I did not know that Robert had a wife. And no, I have never entertained this fool ever since he came back from nowhere, and I never will. For me, he is nothing but some fresh vomit that I can never take back, no matter what."Her words cut through the tension like a knife, carrying a raw honesty that left no room for doubt.
