A minute of silence

“I’m sorry, I want to make up for everything I have put him through but I keep messing things up.” Gary sobbed. His sincerity was apparent but Alex was his friend, he knew him too well.He was almost incapable of change, being impulsive was Gary’s only way of dealing with things, he always acted before thinking. “Having you around has only ever jeopardized his life. One wrong act, one wrong sentence and the world he’s built for himself comes crumbling down.”Gary’s eyes widened in shock, “Is that what you really think of me?”“You leave me with no chance of a better judgement.” Alex retorted.“I have no other choice but to send you away, a second time…”“Do you only ever think of Fredrick? What about me Alex? I am your friend too.”“When you came back to me, I readily took you in. I was happy to have you back, I gave up my relationship so that Fredrick could forgive you. I did that because you are my friend. And now I’m doing this because Fredrick is my friend.”“Leave before he wa

You’re not listening!

The hours of the day seamlessly faded to sunset, Gary had just opened up to someone for the first time in his life. Adrian’s advise was to talk to his friends, but Gary knew he wouldn’t be able to. He found himself in constant struggles of whether or not to accept that he shouldn’t have fallen in love with Claire, but love is what it is, you can’t control it.Or maybe that was what he taught himself to believe. As he waited for Adrian to close the cafe for the day, Gary spotted a car driving into the parking lot of the cafe.“Ughhh!” He groaned.“Adrian, you have a customer!” “Send him in” Adrian replied excitedly.Gary reluctantly trudged towards the woman that had stepped out of the car. She looked about his age, yet Gary found it hard to hold her gaze. Something about her was intimidating him and he didn’t know what.“I would like to see the manager…” The lady said, smiling at him.“I am the manager” Gary replied.“Oh, great!” She exclaimed.“Can I see you for a minute?” She s

The girl on the ground

“How old are you?” “eighteen…” she replied. Her voice was feeble and weak, just like her body. The other girls pushed her down and sat on her stomach, punching into her chest and face.“P…please..stop!” “Stop!” Yvette jolted awake from her recurring dream, straight into the bathroom in the small bedroom used as Mr Sinh’s cafe.She buried her face on the cistern and retched, vomiting violently. Yvette had developed a sudden and unsettling sickness ever since she started having the dreams again.The room spun as she gasped for breath between heaves.She couldn’t tell if she was vomiting as a result of stress or the dream.“What are you doing?” Came a voice from behind her, startling violently.She pivoted gently to the direction of the voice and was surprised to see Gary staring back at her, he clearly didn’t want her at the cafe and it was apparent.“I have a morning sickness…” Yvette replied.“Are you pregnant?” “If you’re pregnant, even the more reason you should leave…”“I’m no

Halloumi Pasta

Fredrick pulled his front door open, expecting to see Gary with his usual mischievous grin, and as expected, Gary stepped into the house with a big grin and a stem of camellia.“Camellia for the pregnant lady…” he replied to Fredrick’s corked eyebrow.“Gary, I know you cut this from my garden outside. I planted them myself.” Fredrick riposted, chuckling in disbelief.“Alex!” Fredrick called,“Gary is so cheap.”“He cut my flowers from my garden for my wife…”“I can’t believe you, Gary!”“Awwwn! I think that is sweet” Avery swooned, blushing slightly.Gary handed the stick of fully bloomed pink camellias to her with a bow,“Thank you, Gary” Avery smiled.Fredrick was somewhat surprised and perplexed,“Are you really pleased that he brought you flowers?!” He said, sitting next to his wife.“Why not? The last time I got flowers was from Nei-Nei… “God bless her gentle soul” she and Gary chorused.“She gave me a bouquet of white roses on our first meeting and I was blown away…”Margaret t

The next morning, you better wait..

The morning cold of the setting winter sieved into the light night gown Avery had on.Unconsciously, instinctively. She curled into Fredrick’s arms looking for warmth.In response, Fredrick threw his body over her fragile figure, cuddling her sweetly and rubbing against her petite body.Avery’s blonde hair looked exceptionally soft as she rested on his arms, he leaned in closer to her and planted his lips on her forehead.She wriggled groggily, slightly snoring as she slept on.Fredrick smiled softly, the scent of her hair sieved into his nose, it was a mix of citrus and soft flowery scent that made an idea pop into his mind- flowers!He made a mental note to pick up a bouquet of red roses for his wife, he felt uneasy and jealous that Gary’s garden flower pleased her.Gently, he planted another kiss on her forehead, then her cheek and finally her lips.Avery writhed and blinked her eyes open, excited to see Fredrick all over her.“You’re awake already..?” She said groggily, rubbing he

Yes or Yes

“A delivery for Mrs Hughson!” Joe announced.Margaret hopped out of the sofa where they were seated enjoying a glass of hot chocolate and watching a good show. Avery had learnt to watch reality shows through Margaret and she found it quite intriguing. She didn’t avert her eyes from the show, she had to recount the scenes to Margaret.“There’s a delivery for Mrs Hughson…” Joe repeated.“I’ll bring it to her, is that okay?” Margaret replied.“Sure, this way”Joe led her to the waiting delivery man waiting outside the gate with a huge bouquet of red roses.“My goodness!” Margaret exclaimed, completely swept away by the sight of the flowers.“Are you Mrs Avery Hughson?” The delivery man asked.“I am Margaret, her sister. Can I sign in her place?”Avery looked around the house, Margaret had gone for too long, she was beginning to miss her TV partner. Slowly, she carried herself from the sofa and headed to the patio.“Avery!” Margaret exclaimed loudly. Avery pivoted to the direction of th

Meeting 43: there’s been a murder

“I guess we’ll find out when you speak with him, answer the phone already!” Margaret squealed. It was clear to her that Fredrick loved Avery more than she knew, Margaret couldn’t understand why she was too cautious with him. One thing she knew- Fredrick would love anything she did, despite whatever.Garnering some confidence from Margaret, she clicked the answer button and pressed the phone to her ear.Fredrick waited for ever waiting for his wife to pick up the phone, he had been smiling ever since she sent him those pictures. Somehow, he felt more endeared to her, more intimate- like real couples.Finally, Avery answered. Fredrick could see her reddened cheeks in his mind’s eye.“Are you blushing?” He asked, his voice soft and affectionate.“No…” Avery lied, but Fredrick could see through her.“Uh… I’m s…”“Don’t! I’ll kill you!” Margaret threatened, cutting her apologetic words short. Her voice was in a low whisper, yet it was stern and clear. “You’re sorry?” Fredrick repeated, h

Burning Bridges

“Alex, There’s been a murder!” Gary exclaimed. The panic in his voice made Alex’s heart sink.“Noah, represent me. I trust you.” Alex said, turning away from him immediately. At that point, Gary was more important to him than the Brothers’ ring.Noah widened his eyes in disbelief,“How?!” He exclaimed, trudging into the clandestine hall.In no time, Alex had hurried to the parking lot, his heart was pounding as fast as he walked. He was trembling out of fear that Gary might have killed someone. How could he defend him? “Oh my god!” Alex gasped, he buried his hand in his pocket rummaging it for his car key.“Gary, what do you mean?”“Did you kill someone? My god! Gary, how could you let this happen?!” Alex rambled breathlessly, cautiously speaking into his phone as if the privacy of his own car wasn’t enough.“Alex, I might not be the best person on earth but I’d never hurt a soul.” Gary cried, his voice was quivering from apparent sadness.“Hard to believe since you’ve hurt Fredrick

Urgent: let’s gather!

“What is wrong with you, Gary? Do you want to go to jail, Gary?” Alex exclaimed.“Can’t I trust you to take care of yourself? How could you make such serious decisions by yourself?”“I ran over here because I was worried about your countenance over the phone, who is this? Who are you?” Alex scolded, turning towards Yvette.Yvette was clearly trembling, afraid and confused.Gary felt his heart wrenching at Alex’s mean words. Or maybe he was blinded by his pity for Yvette that he felt Alex was being mean.He jolted from his seat and grabbed Alex by the hand.“Come with me!” He growled.He pushed the door open and they were outside in a second,“Send her out, I don’t want to have to do it myself. Send her away.” Alex maintained.“I won’t do that, I won’t send her out or away.” Gary argued. “Do I have to call the owners of the cafe?” Alex raged.“What right do you have to do this?” “Can you stop just for a moment and listen to me?!” Gary yelled. His heart was brewing with a whirlwind o

De ja vu: A whole drag

“Oooh! new face, who are you?” Margaret asked in her usual bubbly manner.“Yvette” Fredrick replied, quite sarcastically. Gary hung his head, unable to hold their gazes. He felt ambushed and helpless, he didn’t even have the courage to glance at Yvette.“Nice name, are you from the Coast?” Margaret asked.“The coast…?” Alex repeated. “Yes, Yvette is a popular name for twins born in the coast. Yvette and Yvonne.”“I had a childhood friend from the Coast and her name was Yvette.”“Well, did your childhood friend kill anyone and run to Greenville by any chance?” Alex asked, his tone was full of sarcasm.Fredrick was barely paying any attention to them, he was busy rubbing his wife’s baby bump.Unexpectedly, he raised his gaze to Alex as his words had just registered in his mind.“Can you stop saying dark things? Aiden is listening!”Margaret and Avery erupted in a soft cooing laughter.“The baby’s ears have barely been formed, stop being dramatic.” Margaret scoffed, rolling her eyebrow
