CHAPTER 61: SWEET SUMMER CHILD

Kali lathered herself up, humming as she enjoyed the warm shower. It was Friday. That meant she got to come home and enjoy herself without thinking about work for the next couple of days. But she wasn't in the mood to stay home. She wanted to do something else, something different, something fun.She heard the door to one of the closest shut, and she rushed out of the bathroom, grabbing the bathrobe from the rack and throwing the door open. Samuel was almost out of the room when she caught up to him."Samuel. Stop."He did, turning to find her soaking their tiled floor and clutching the front of the robe with her hand. "You're wet and dripping.""I can tell. I'll mop it up. Are you going out?""Just downstairs. I want to get something out of the car.""Alright." She swiped a wet hair from her face and nervously smiled. "Are you free tonight? Or do you have any plans?""Plans? No. I don't.""Do you want to go out to eat? Somewhere simple and outdoorsy, maybe?"He grinned. "Don't feel li

CHAPTER 62: FACING THE FACTS

"Come on, dad. A short walk around the street will be good for you."Flora pulled off the blanket and helped him up to his feet. He had been spending so much time at home that she wondered about his health. Aside from the drugs, he needed good meals and exercise. He had been neglecting his exercises. Since he was on a break from work, he had little to do in the house but the small chores he could find because she didn't leave much for him to do."You don't have to stay around fussing over me every night. Go out. Enjoy some friendly company.""I will, Dad." She helped him into his jacket and set his sandals down at his feet. "As soon as we get you on a planned schedule.""I'll start taking walks. I'll eat whatever you leave in the fridge for me if it means you'll get back to even a semblance of your past self.""I will. I will."She was putting in the effort. Thankfully, aside from the magazines that posted stories of Samuel's family here and

CHAPTER 63: A LOVE SHE DESIRED

"Hey." Kali smiled as she heard Samuel's greeting. "How's it going?""Same as yesterday. I called to tell you I'd be late again today.""Alright."She heard a door close and the jangling of keys. "Did you get home right now?""Yes. I spent some time with Peter at the mansion. We talked, and time escaped me.""I hope things are fine?""They are good.""Fine. See you later.""Take care."She placed her phone down and collapsed back on her seat. Even with all the work she had to do, her mind travelled back and forth between the present and the past. Samuel didn't say much about their run-in with Flora, and she didn't push him to. With his relationship, she only listened and gave as little of her opinion as possible. No matter how close they were as friends, she believed his decisions regarding the woman he loved were his and his alone.Flora had barely looked at them on the street. She said hello and goodbye, but there was no emotion behind her eyes. She might have reached the indifferenc

CHAPTER 64: SOMETHING IN THE AIR

“Ember would be so disappointed in me. She taught me the steps, and somehow I mess it up after a week of her gone.”Samuel laughed. “I mean, you were juggling a lighter schedule then compared to now. Maybe you should return to the drawing board and see how to manage yourself while employed.”“I will. Thankfully, I was able to get something for tonight. Thanks for going with me.” “It was a pleasure.”He set the bags on the coffee table, and she took out the items they bought. First, from the flower shop, she got some hand-weaved baskets and a bunch of flowers to send to her sister on the anniversary of her parent’s death, which wasn’t too far away. She had also stopped by the mall to pick up

CHAPTER 65: IT BEGINS WITH A WELL PLACED EAR

The water did little to help him, but he still cupped his hand underneath the rushing nuzzle, all the same. He waited for his palms to fill before splashing the water over his face. Kiss Kali had been a bad call. He couldn't make any excuses. The truth was he wanted to kiss her and saw no reason to stop when she kissed him first. Only he would do something as stupid as that when they needed to spend the entire evening together. She would be beside him because Ember wasn’t around to keep her company, and her sister had school. “You already did this. Don’t be a coward, and get out there.”He dried

CHAPTER 66: A DINNER FOR THE AGES

"Good evening, ma'am." The young maid greeted them as she took their jackets. "Are they already at the table?" Samuel asked."Yes. Peter would be down soon. He is the last one.""Thanks, Mindy." The maid scurried away, and Samuel looked at her. "Try and keep your head.""I promise nothing but to keep my sanity."

CHAPTER 67: LIGHTS DOWN LOW

Samuel flicked the lights on as they entered the house. Kali walked behind him, pulling the band off her hair and massaging her scalp with a groan. Dinner had gone swimmingly. Exactly how they expected it to go. What was clear tonight was how enthused his mother was with whatever went on at the table. Throughout the dinner, he saw through her façade of disgruntled matriarch to the woman who relished the tarnishing of Kali’s character. “All that time spent on the road reminding me to be calm tonight, and you end up losing your cool.” Kali grinned as they dragged themselves into the living room.

CHAPTER 68: CUTTING THE HEAD OF THE SNAKE

Samuel left for his lunch break early the next day to meet his mother at home. It didn’t surprise him to receive her call. It had taken three days more than he expected, but it came nonetheless. He had arrived on time at the mansion, noticing that none of the other cars were around. The garage was being cleaned, and he couldn’t see any other cars except his mothers. That meant his father and Giovanna had also stepped out for the day. For the next three weeks, there were no dinners or parties planned except for Kali’s birthday. His mother turned down the invitation, claiming she already made plans for that day months ago, which was alright with him. He told Kali she would do that. And no doubt fine with Kali. For the next three weeks, he had

CHAPTER 69: A KNIGHT IN RUSTED ARMOR

The phone was ringing. Kali moaned, turning away and tucking herself into a more comfortable position in the sheets. She wasn't ready to get out of bed and begin another work day, and from a quick peek at her surroundings, she knew she had more time. It was still dark out, and the weather made it easier to be lulled back into sleep.It took a while for her brain to catch up and realise that the ringing wasn't her alarm. It was someone calling her phone. She sat up, kicking the blanket off and crawling over to snatch her phone from the nightstand. It was Samuel."Hello?""You need to get down here."She dug her knuckles into her eyes and yawned loud and long. "Samuel, it's five thirty. What are you doing out of bed so early?""I heard a noise and came down to check. I need you to come down with the bug spray from the bathroom."She groaned, dragging herself out of bed and walking to the bathroom to get what he asked. "What kind of bug makes e

CHAPTER 70: INVITATION ONLY

After a tedious week, nearly ruined by the appearance of Richard, Kali was finally ready to celebrate her long-awaited birthday party. Samuel was, once again, her sister's go-to guy for planning, so he promptly blindfolded her in the driveway of their house. Her fingers reached up, touching his knuckles when she got to her face, and he responded by gently slapping her hand away."Stand still.""Why am I being blindfolded?" She asked for the sixth time that morning, shuffling from one foot to the other. "It's not a surprise party.""If it were a surprise party, blindfolding you will give it away."She stuck her tongue in her cheek, waiting for him to finish while regretting the choice to wear heels on her dress. Kali had no idea he would blindfold her first when she picked out the golden heels she thought went well with the snugly fit emerald green dress she picked for the party. A pair of white sneakers would have worked just as well since she wouldn't see the ground for a time."There
