41. Understanding

GENESISShe intentionally got Elon ready for the day extra early so that she would not have to run into Dante. Even though she had decided that she was going to forget that that kiss ever happened, she still did not know how she was going to face him. And the fact that her she could not actually stop thinking about him was not helping matters at all.She knew that he would easily find her in the backyard or garden, so after she served Elon his breakfast, she went and spent her time in her room. If he happened to knock, she would simply stay silent and pretend like she was not even in there. She seemed to be lucky that day because nobody knocked her door until she had to go and prepare lunch for Elon. At this time of the day, Dante was usually buried in his work so she had nothing to worry about. But first, she went to check on Elon to find out what he wanted for lunch.“Where have you been, Jenny?” Elon looked up from his Rubik's cube immediately she walked in his room.She sighed de

42. Wait

GENESISShe had not seen Dante the whole day. It was already six o'clock in the evening, almost time for dinner, and he still was nowhere to be seen.She left Elon watching cartoons in the living room and went to look for Dante in his home office. This was unusual. Before, she would not have bothered because he used to spend most of his time with the drug lords. Now, he spent most of his time in his home office and with Elon. She knocked on the door of his home office for a while and there was no response, so she turned the doorknob and pushed the door open. And she was surprised to not have seen him in his seat.She walked in, searching the office with her eyes. He was not there. She knocked on the door of the ensuite, and there was still no response. She thought against checking in there because she did not want to have to find him naked. But there was a chance that he had passed out in there for some reason, so she opened the door and checked. He still was not there. This was str

43. Finally

GENESIS The last few days had been pretty hectic, with taking care of Elon and attending to Dante. He was doing better now but he was still slightly sick. He now spent more time with her and Elon, and less time in his office. According to him, facing work too much would have his head aching again.And El, he had been rambling about a lot of stuff since he woke up that morning. And she was there pretending to understand everything he was saying as she massaged his legs.“And my daddy has been looking at you a lot these days.” Elon dropped out of nowhere.She looked up at him fast, a deep frown on her face. “What did you say?”“That my daddy has been looking at you a lot these days.” He shrugged. “Have you not noticed that?”“He has been around us more lately.” She tried to generalize it. “So, of course, he would be looking at us more.”But the kid was not having it. “I know what I'm saying. He looks at you even when he's talking to me. Like yesterday, when I pleading with him for a pe

44. Visit

GENESISAll the way to the hospital, she found it hard to sit still. Every five minutes or so, she would ask Dante if they were close already. And when Dante finally pulled into the parking lot of the hospital, she almost jumped out through the car's window. She had to calm herself down and opened the door before she got out. She walked ahead of Dante and even spoke to the receptionist by herself about who they were here to see. She was aware that Dante must have been confused as hell, but that was something she was going to address later. At the moment, all she wanted was to see her best friend.Immediately she walked through the doors of the ward, she felt a wave of happiness hit her. Her eyes brimmed with tears once her eyes met with Sara's. And she would have dived to hug her friend if that did not mean that she would have to explain to Dante and Scar Face why she was doing that.Even Sara must have understood from her hesitation that she had not yet spilled the truth about her p

45. Suspicion

DANTEHe had been really suspicious of Genesis the last few days. Not for something serious, no. It was about that lady, Sara. The kind of closeness they had after barely meeting each other seemed unnatural. Genesis always talked about Sara a lot now, they had even taken to texting each other.It bugged his mind so much that he thought it wise to discuss it with Luke. “It's a woman thing. They bond over the littlest things.” That was all Luke said.Dante nodded but he still was not convinced. He took his friend's words for it and chose not to think too much of it. That was until he overheard Genesis on the phone speaking with Sara.“Do you remember when that local boy band was trying so desperately to be the it boys on campus?” Genesis had asked.He frowned. If they really had just met, how did they share a memory that went all the way back to college?He chose to remain there and listen more but it was not long after that that Genesis had ended the call, saying that she needed to fo

46. Return

GENESISIt was very obvious that Dante was beginning to suspect her relationship with Sara. The way he looked at her and asked those questions about their days in college proved that. She really wished she did not have to continue lying to him, but she still did not think it was the right time to tell him about her past.Alright, that was just an excuse. It was the perfect time to tell him. But she was scared as to how his reaction to it would be? Would he still see her for who she was or would his perception of her change? She really hoped it would be the former whenever she manages to build up the courage to tell him.“You look like you are about to pass out.” Sara's voice coming from her phone's speaker reminded her that they were on a video call.She sighed and adjusted her pillow. “I'm just thinking of ways to tell him.”“Tell him what?”“Everything!” She exhaled heavily. “I just don't know how to put it out to him.”“Simply meet him in private and spill it.” Sara shrugged like sh

47. Past People

GENESISShe insisted on doing the grocery shopping this week, it was an excuse for her to leave the house, an opportunity to clear her head.The past few days had been hectic for her as she had to put up a bright front before Dante and Elon despite her knowledge of the impending doom that was coming with her brother. She spent most of her time thinking and thinking but she still was not able to come up with any way to come out of the mess that she had found herself in. It looked like her only way out was to tell Dante about everything, but she still could not bring herself to do that yet.She was still lost in thought when her cast bumped into someone else's and she looked up with a start, with wide eyes and gaped lips.“Sorry! I'm so sorry!” She immediately started to apologize. “I'm sorry, I was not paying attention—”“Jenny?”She paused when the person called her by a name only people close to her called her with. And it was then that she started paying attention to how he looked.

48. Meet?

DANTELuke always found it amusing when he talked about his problems and, sometimes, he felt like punching his best friend for that. Now, he was watching Luke struggle to stifle his laughter in the middle of him explaining how his father had just randomly called him.“I really don't see how anything I've said is funny.” Dante voiced out his thoughts. “Not even in the slightest.”“Man, forgive me for what I'm about to say.” Luke started. “But your father is a clown.”Any normal person would have been offended by that statement. But Dante was not, and he did not even find it weird. Instead, all he had to say was, “Do not call him my father.”“Alright.” Luke shrugged. “But the balls he has to call you after all these years, and even claim that it's not because he's going bankrupt? That's a stupid excuse and he knows it.”“Everything he said yesterday got me really upset.” Dante confessed. “Hearing his voice made me want to rip my hair out of my scalp.”“So what did you say to him?”“To n

49. Find Out

GENESISShe arrived at the cafe ten minutes late. It was easy to sight him as he was sitting alone at the bottom left corner of the place, looking out through the floor to ceiling window. She walked briskly to the table and tapped on it twice to get his attention. His mood brightened as soon as he saw her, she knew that because his lips spread into a huge smile.“You're here.”“Yes, yes.” She nodded as she took her seat opposite him. “I'm so sorry I was late. I had to put some things at home in order before I left.”“Oh, no problem.” He shrugged. “I only arrived about five minutes ago.”There was silence between them for a few minutes, until Aaron broke it.“So, tell me about your current life.” He started. “How has life been since you left home?”“I won't lie, it was hard at first.” Genesis sighed. “But things are pretty smooth now. I’m a nurse like I've always wanted, I'm married and I have a stepson.”“Wow.” Aaron looked happy for her. “You really won the lottery in life.”“I real

50. I'll Wait

GENESISDante’s best friend came in quite early that morning. As early as nine o'clock, he was already in their house. She was aware that he occasionally came by to help Dante with some work but never had he come in so early.That was not what even bothered her, it was the way he looked at her that morning that she did not like. They did not speak often; but whenever they crossed paths, he was usually warm and playful with her. Then why was today different? Why did he look at her like he suspected her of something? She felt weird under his scrutiny so she left that space and went to the kitchen. She also had bigger issues to worry about so she did not let it bother her. If he could not speak up about any problem he had with her, he might as well just keep it to himself.Since she was already in the kitchen, she thought it wise to just get on with making lunch and just store them in a pot that would keep the food warm. It took her close to two hours to cook everything she had planned
