Chapter: Better meaning to life pt2Despite the rich aroma that had taken over the entire floor no one bought anything, not a single croissant…not a single muffin.People passed by the display, slowed down… looked…And then—“Just coffee, please.”Again.And again.And again.Dave noticed but he stayed quiet, leaning casually against the counter, pretending not to care until someone finally said it out loud.A man in line chuckled, loud enough for others to hear.“If his coffee was that bad…” he shrugged, smirking, “what do you think the baking tastes like?”A few people laughed under their breath.Another added, “Smells can lie, you know.”Dave exhaled slowly through his nose. Dave remained composed but the excitement from earlier dimmed—just a little.The cafeteria doors opened and silence followed. Lisha walked in. Not passing by. Not sending Clara. Not avoiding the crowd like she always did.She walked in and stayed. Heads turned instantly. Forks paused mid-air. Conversations died without warning.“She… she’s eati

Chapter: Better meaning to lifeThe machines arrived before sunrise. Dave was already awake. Not just awake—ready.There was an energy in him that hadn’t been there in a long time. He moved faster, lighter, almost as if something inside him had finally aligned with who he used to be.When he stepped out, Lisha was already there, watching him with quiet amusement.“You’re smiling this early?” she said. “That’s new.”Dave didn’t even try to hide it. “Today’s a big day.”Lisha tilted her head slightly. “You look like a child on his birthday.”Dave laughed softly, shaking his head. “You don’t get it.”“Then explain it to me,” she said.He paused for a moment, then spoke more sincerely.“This… this is the first time in a while I feel like I can actually do something. Not just exist. Not just… survive.” He looked at her. “So yeah—it means a lot.”Something in his tone made her expression soften.“You’re welcome,” she said quietly.Dave nodded, grateful. “Thank you, Lisha. Really.”They left together. And as they walked in

Chapter: New light goes onDave counted the days without meaning to.Each morning felt like a step closer to something he had been craving—not just purpose, but identity. The baking machines. Until then, reality humbled him.His first official day behind the counter was… far from impressive.“I asked for a latte, not a life decision,” one customer muttered after taking a sip.Another simply stared at the cup, then at Dave, and said, “Are you experimenting on us?”Dave forced a smile through it all, nodding politely, apologizing more times than he could count.Behind him, one of the staff whispered, “Too much foam,” while another quietly took over a drink he had just made. But he didn’t quit.By the third day, something shifted.“Less water, more control,” one coworker guided, standing beside him.“Watch the pour,” another added. “Feel it, don’t fight it.”They were patient, surprisingly so. And Dave listened—carefully, humbly, learning with every mistake. Each bad cup became a better one. Each complaint became

Chapter: New lightLisha barely slept that night. Morning couldn’t come fast enough. The idea of finally pulling Dave into her world—not as a guest, but as part of it—brought a quiet excitement she didn’t bother to question.Dave, on the other hand, woke before dawn.He stood in front of the mirror longer than usual, adjusting his suit, smoothing out invisible creases. It felt unfamiliar—too polished, too distant from the man he used to be. When he stepped out, Lisha was already waiting.“Early,” she noted.Dave gave a small smile. “Didn’t want to be late on my first day.”For a brief moment, something like approval passed through her eyes.“Let’s go.”The drive was quiet, but not uncomfortable. There was a strange shift between them—less tension, more… alignment.As they stepped out of the car, Dave glanced down at himself and chuckled lightly.“I feel like a rich man in this suit,” he teased.Lisha smirked faintly. “You look the part.”But the moment they entered everything changed. Heads turned and c

Chapter: A pink heart is goodLisha was not a woman who missed details. She had been watching Dave closely for days. The way he moved through the house without purpose.The long silences.The distant look in his eyes whenever he thought no one was paying attention.One afternoon, she found him seated in the living room, staring blankly at nothing in particular.“Dave,” she called gently.He looked up, slightly startled. “Yeah?”“Come,” she said, gesturing toward the sitting area. “Let’s talk.”There was something different in her tone—less commanding, more… human. Dave hesitated for a moment before joining her.For a while, neither of them spoke. Then Lisha broke the silence.“You’re not settling in,” she said plainly.It wasn’t a question. Dave let out a quiet breath, rubbing his hands together.“I’m trying,” he replied. “It’s just… different.”“Different how?”He paused. And for the first time since moving in, he didn’t filter himself completely.“I miss them,” he admitted quietly.Lisha didn’t interrupt.“Adia…

Chapter: Let me divorce youDays turned into weeks, and yet nothing felt settled.For Gladys and Sarah, confusion slowly hardened into certainty—certainty that there was only one person responsible for the destruction of what once looked like a perfect family.Lisha.Gladys visited Dave more often than usual, sitting across from him in the quiet house that no longer felt like a home.“Talk to me, my son,” she would plead gently. “This is not you. You don’t walk away from love like this.”But Dave had perfected silence. Every answer he gave was short, careful, and empty of truth.“I’m doing what’s best,” he would say.And each time, Gladys would leave more unconvinced than before.Across town, Sarah tried just as hard.Adia sat with Ava in her arms, her face calm but distant, as Sarah spoke with a mixture of frustration and heartbreak.“This is not the girl I raised,” Sarah said one afternoon. “You don’t give up like this. You don’t just let someone take your life away.”Adia forced a faint smile.“It’s already g
