Kathleen and Nicole sat down in the park. There were children playing in front of them, but Nicole sat with her mother, holding her ice cream. They both had ice cream in their hands. "Nicole, baby." She cooed quietly while looking at her worriedly. The girl smiled as she looked back at her mother. Her smile faded once she saw her mother's eyes. She knew the lady had something to tell her, and it wouldn't be good news. She paused licking her ice cream and gave a nod. "Tell me. You have something to tell me."How can her child be this wise? She could tell something was awry with just a glance. "I'm so sorry." She kept mute. "I will not be gone for a long time."Instead, the girl grinned and said, "I felt something was wrong. When I saw you and Uncle Lucas in the morning, I knew my delight would be cut short. Happiness never lasts, Mom. I was not born to be happy."Kathleen cried, "That is so deep, Nicole. You have the right to be happy.""You are my happiness, Mom. But when you

Clara didn't blink nor stir. She was...quiet.She raised her brows, "What are you talking about?."You know what I'm talking about. We almost made a mistake, we should avoid repeating that in the future." His voice was cold. There weren't emotions in his eyes as he spoke."But we almost did it. Those

Walking into the Coffee shop with Kat, Damon led her to a corner and went to order coffee. Kat looked through the window, watching cars parked at the lot. The city where she grew up looked the same. It hasn't changed a bit."I'm happy you're back. Are you back for good?." Damon asked, sitting across her as he handed her the coffee cup. Kat smiled and collected the coffee. She sipped a little and dropped it on the table."No. Just here for a temporal business." She told him. Damon smiled back, nodding."We missed you. Since you left, it seemed like everything I knew left too. Well, Noelle and Helena left. Then you left too.

"What is it that you plan for her?."Clara asked, pouring wine into the glass on the table. She turns around and walked up to him, Aiden looked at her as she handed him the glass with a smile. He took it and turned to the window."I do not think of anything at the moment." He answered her briefly and took a sip. His other hand was in his left pocket."What were you thinking, inviting her over to dinner. I knew you just have something in mind." Clara persisted.He scoffed, "I'm going to make life unbearable for her until she decides to leave Seattle." Clara smiled at his plans but then she didn't trust this man.She pressed further and went to sit on the bed, her eyes resting at the masculine back of Aiden who was facing her.

Kat's mouth hung, amusement filled her eyes, she never expected him to say this."A daughter- in law?." She finally asked the old man.Maxwell laughed, then sipped from the mug again. "I've always wished to be an in-law to your grandpa. If you don't mind,"There was silence.Kat kept shaking her head and when she looked up at the old man, Maxwell understood she didn't know what to say. He had heard the news of her, attending dates, and declining suitors, but he didn't want his to be the same case of the others she had met.Kat breathed out and replied to him, "I'll think about it, sir." Maxwell sighed inwardly, at least she gave him that respect."You can come to my estate and see me. We'll talk about it."Kat stood up and bowed slightly, her head lowering a bit, plump lips pouting, if only she has the chance to.As she walked out of his office, the young lady bowed to her and walked in.

"And you?. What do you think you're doing back here?"Fiona asked Clara after the call. Clara laughed briefly, "I sorted things with Aiden already. I've asked for forgiveness, and we are now best friends." Fiona scoffed and mumbled to herself, "Best friends my foot." Then she looked at her, "I hope you're not here to steal from my sons again."Clara frowned, how dare she say such a thing to her face?.<Shameless woman>She cussed Fiona inwardly."I told you, we're best friends already. I'm sorry for causing so much trouble. I promise not to do that again."Fiona rolled her eyes at her and slumped down on the sofa. Her eyes were looking around the sitting room and she mumbled, "This place hasn't changed a bit at all."Clara came closer and sat down too."Do you know Mrs. Smith? that Kathleen is back in Seattle." She asked, tactically. Quickly Fiona looked at her, "Kathleen?." She asked, wide-eyed.Clara shook her head. Fiona blinked her eyes like some teenage girl, "Oh my god!. I hope

He took out his hand and said, "If you don't mind," Kat felt nervous, the man was pretty, she noticed. She slowly took his soft hand and he led her to the empty seat beside the left hand of Mr. Maxwell.

She felt like she got goosebumps all over her body.'I never expected to meet him here.' Kat told herself and then Aiden's eyes met hers. She looked away immediately."I wouldn't skip a day with you, Dimitri." They laughed, Aiden went to sit beside the other lady, opposite Kathleen, and when
