CHAPTER 91: SETTING THINGS STRAIGHT

"June and Giovanna are hanging out again?""Yes. Giovanna was interested in the college, and now they are best buddies." Samuel pursed his lips, and she chuckled. "I am joking about the best buddies part. They are only together today because June is at the house. She called to tell me she'd drop by.""I am glad all the same. She is trying to change her attitude and be more accepting of you and your family.""No. No. She made it clear that with June, she was genuinely interested in learning more about her life at the university. June has nothing to do with the pact she made with Steven.""Oh, come on. Do you think Giovanna would have sat down long enough to learn about that without that condition?""You are r

CHAPTER 92: A SEMBLANCE OF TRANQUILLITY

"Hey, man?" Samuel lifted his head from the table, looking at Holland, who stood by the door. "I am done for the day. Want me to wait for you?""No, thanks. Go ahead.""Are you sure you're okay? You've been like this ever since we came back from lunch. Did you fight with Kali?""No. I am just tired.""You're sure.""Yeah. I'll be out of here soon. I have a few files to look over and sort through.""Okay. I'll see you.""Good night."Holland left, and Samuel looked around his office. It was getting late, and he promised Kali he'd be home early. He looked at his wedding ring, twisting it around his finger thoughtfully.Today, it seemed he got through to Flora better than he did the first time they spoke. He had been hard, but only to finally get through to her that things weren't the same. He didn't want her holding on to hope and realise later that there was nothing to salvage. She would only be miserable like that.

CHAPTER 93: BEACHES AND SUNSET

The beginning of the end was a phrase Kali rarely thought of but one she had read many times in books or heard in movies. Kali never really knew how to apply the phrase, and unfortunately, she had no idea that the happiness she felt staring at the reserved room was exactly that, the beginning of the end. "This is beautiful." She dug her elbow into Samuel's rib, winking at him. "It is."

CHAPTER 94: TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING

On the last night, after a long day of celebrating Peter's birthday, everyone gathered around the large pit fire to have some drinks. Their parents went to bed early. They played a round of games, then moved to relieve the week before falling into conversations about their plans for the coming week. When they ran out of drinks, Samuel and Ember went to the nearest bar to pick up another round. As he waited, he watched everyone on the beach, especially his older brother. "Have you spoken to him?"

CHAPTER 95: NOTHING STINGS LIKE THE TRUTH

Something was wrong.Samuel sensed it the moment he entered the room. She had been sitting on the bed with her purse on her lap, staring into nothing. When he asked what was wrong, Kali said nothing. She told him she only wanted to go home. So they got in the car and headed home. Throughout the trip, she had been quiet. She only spoke when he spoke to her. Otherwise, she remained silent, looking out the window. Each time he asked what was wrong, he got the same answer. He reasoned that she was waiting to get home before she told him what was wrong.

CHAPTER 96: A MOTHER LIKE NO OTHER

Samuel found his mother at home. She had been working in the garden when he called. She stayed there to keep their conversation away from the rest of the family. Samuel didn't have an issue with it. "Good afternoon, mom." "Good afternoon. You found me. What can I do for you?" "Why did you say those things to her?" He got straight to the point. "It's not my fault you were keeping your secrets. You two looked so close, and yet you weren't." "I don't care that you told her about Richard. Why did you say those things to her?" "You have to be more specific." "You told her I thought she was comparing me with him. Why?" "Isn't it the truth?" "You know that it's not. You said those things to humiliate her further. You wanted to hurt her. Why? Why must you do this anytime I feel a smidgen of happiness? What is it about me that makes you want to hurt me?" "Don't get ahead of yourself. At this point, I am saving yo

CHAPTER 97: HALF A LIFE LIVED

Kali wiped her face hard, using her palm and the back of her hand until every tear was gone. She needed to get her head right if she wanted to be standing at the end of the day. She waited in her car until she got her composure. Kali got down when she felt relatively ready and rang the bell on the gate.“Richard. It’s me.” She spoke into the microphone, keeping herself in view of the cameras.The gate unlocked, and she walked in. She couldn’t bring herself to go in and didn’t answer the phone when Richard called. She remained on the lawn, looking at the mansion and waiting for him to come out. There was nothing that would make her enter that house again. If not for her dignity, then out of courtesy.If she entered his home, her anger would lead her to behave irrationally. There were too many things she could grab and destroy. Out here, all she had was herself.“Kali.” Richard smiled when he came out to meet her. &

CHAPTER 98: THE MAN SHE MADE

Samuel rushed to Ember's apartment after getting her call. He was worried about Kali. Especially since his sister told him she had called her, sounding panicked and distressed. He didn't know how the conversation with Richard went, but he wasn't sure he even wanted to know."Where is she?""Sleeping." Ember let him into the apartment. "I gave her a hot cup of tea and some sleeping pills. She needed the rest.""Thank you.""Come on."She led him to the guest room and opened the door. Samuel went to her. He knelt and touched her head hesitantly. She looked better than when she left the house. There was that, at least."Let her sleep," Ember whispered, holding the door open and signalling him out.They went to the living room, and she left to get him some water. Samuel stretched out on the couch. He threw his arm over his eyes and listened to the noise as Ember moved around."Here. Drink this."He peeked from under his arm

CHAPTER 99: MERELY MAKING PLANS FOR YOUR DOWNFALL

Kali woke up early and slid out of bed while Samuel was still asleep. She walked around the apartment quietly. After the previous day's events, she was exhausted and starving. She wanted to stuff herself with whatever she could find in the kitchen. "Morning."Kali looked over her shoulder, scared. "Oh, Ember. It's you.""Sorry to scare you.""It's alright. I was about to rummage through your kitchen for something to eat. Would you like to join me?""Sure."Kali was nervous. She had forgotten most of her conversation with Samuel because her brain was still asleep. But after seeing Ember, Kali remembered Samuel had told her everything. She hoped Ember wasn't too angry or disappointed in her. She considered her a friend, and it would hurt to lose that."What do you want?""A sandwich is fine.""I am too hungry to show off, so what if I make us a simple sandwich for today?""I'll take it."Kali prepared s

CHAPTER 100: THE WOMAN HE MARRIED

Kali walked into her sister's apartment. She had planned to visit her earlier but kept pushing the date back until she couldn't anymore. June was home, and Kali left work early to catch her sister before it was too late. Samuel had taken the first step with Ember, and it was her turn. If she waited, who's to tell what Ysabel might do? Just as she informed Kali about Richard as a desperate attempt to cause a rift between them, she might say something to June one of these days. "I am glad you came. Sit. Can I get you anything?" June asked.
