At 8 pm, I arrived at De paradise . As I got down from the cab ,I took a deep breath seeing people walking in and out of the hall, elegantly. I walked in too with my gift in hand. I most say the party planner did a very good job…every where was beautifully decorated. I smiled when I saw my uncle Anderson. “Nicole”. He called, cheerfully. “Uncle Anderson…happy birthday.” I said while I hugged him. “I'm so glad u made it here”. He said. We disengaged from each other and I handed him his gift. “Oh…. you're so thoughtful my dear.” I smiled and walked over to say Hi to my mother and Uncle Anderson's wife's Betty. Taking notes that my father was yet to arrive.. I felt relieved and took it as acute to leave. Seeing him and his wife would make me angry …it makes me think about the past and I always do my best to avoid them. “Mom,I should get going… I have a lot of things catch up on..” I lot out slowly standing up. “Oh no , Young lady…you barely even touched your food.” Betty said as she pushed me playfully to sit back. “ but…” “C’mon . You literally just got here and we have a very important guest coming over.” “Who's that?” I asked, curiously. “He's the son of your uncle Anderson’s friend. And I heard he's your new boss…. what's that's name again? Oh …Raphael.” “What!?” I let out startling everyday on the table. It's Raphael again! Why is he also everywhere?! Am I the first person to have a one night stand?! Why am I being tortured by us presence?! Ehn.. Ugh! Well, we could say my uncle was well to do but not as rich as the level of Raphael. Ahh … how… how..do they know someone like him and why!? Before I could think of the next thing to do,I saw him entering the hall with my father's family. Oh no.. I should leave…. I really should. I saw a waiter leading them over to where I was sitting. I tensed and whispered to Betty. “This the VIP table.” She reminded. I tried not to show how uneasy I was as they all got seated. i glanced at Clara Mendoza,the woman who ruined my parent's marriage. Next to her was her daughter, Cali Mendoza…. She was like a goddess…everything about her body looked so perfect….but of course,I heard she had done numerous plastic surgeries. So to me, she's so fake. She was on heavy makeup as usual. I wonder if anyone had ever seen what she really looked like. I glanced at Raphael who looked so nonchalant. My father didn't acknowledge my presence either. So i choose to focus on the food in front of me. As I ate,they started talking. “Oh, Cali … this Raphael whites. He's a son to a very close friend of mine. He just became a CEO and I'm sure he'll have lots of business with us in the future. You should get to know him.” My father's voice rung through the air. He runs a small security agency. “Nice to meet you Raphael,my name is Cali mendoza.i hope we get to know more About each other.” Cali Said sweetly. “Likewise”. He said politely. “We don't have to be formal with each other, right?” Cali asked. I rolled my eyes… I could already tell that she was into him. I Glanced up to see Raphael ignoring her and started eating. “Raphael,how about I get your number? you know,we might have some business to go over in the future or want do u think.” she asked seductively. Raphael, already feeling irritated replied “you can contact my secretary if you have anything to discuss with me” he snapped. Despite that,she didn't give up and continued to pester him. It was so so funny to watch. “Nicole,are u going to keep sitting there or are u blind that u want to pretend you didn't see me? You're so rude and disrespectful”Clara said to me. I scoffed. Rude?...and disrespectful? I'm only trying my best to get through this night. Why must she deliberately pick on me ? “So… “So ? Young lady u lack manners.” I sneered.” Look who's talking.” “Michael, Are u going to just sit and watch your daughter talk down on me?!” Now all the guest were looking at our table. “My father instantly looked furious.” “Nicole, apologize to her now!” I snickered. Apologize,my foot!

Someone UpstairsNicole's POVClara's fingers tightened around mine."Don't move."I stared at her.The footsteps came again.Slow.Measured.Someone was walking across the floor above us.My heart slammed against my ribs.Raphael appeared at the bottom of the stairs.His eyes moved from Clara to me.Then toward the ceiling.He didn't ask what happened.He already knew."Stay behind me."I almost laughed."That's getting old."His eyes flicked toward mine."This isn't the time."Another footstep sounded above us.Closer to the staircase.Clara's hand slipped from mine."There's no one supposed to be here."Raphael's expression hardened."Apparently someone didn't get that message."He reached beneath his jacket.The sight of his hand disappearing inside it made my stomach tighten.I followed him up the first step.He turned."Nicole.""I'm coming.""Stay downstairs.""No."His jaw tightened.I stepped around him."You don't get to decide what I see anymore."His eyes held mine for a

The Woman Who Knew Nicole's POV "My mother?" The word barely left my mouth. Raphael didn't answer. He stood across from me, his face unreadable, while Joy stared at the floor as though the answer had been carved into it. I waited. Nothing. My chest tightened. "You said the last person who opened that box disappeared." Raphael's jaw shifted. "Yes." "My mother is alive." "I know." The answer came quietly. Too quietly. I stepped closer. "Then don't say things like that." "I wasn't talking about your mother." I stopped. "Then who?" Raphael looked at Joy. She shook her head. "Not tonight." I laughed once. It came out empty. "Of course." I bent down and picked up the note from the floor. My father's handwriting stared back at me. If Nicole ever finds the key, don't let her open the box alone. I folded the paper. My fingers wouldn't stop shaking. "I want to go home." Raphael's expression hardened. "No." I looked at him. "That wasn't a question." "Someone

The Things He Never Told MeMy ears were still ringing.For a few seconds, I couldn't hear anything except a high-pitched whine that seemed to come from somewhere inside my skull.I pushed myself up on trembling hands.Glass covered the porch.Tiny pieces glittered across the floor in the morning light."Nicole."Raphael's voice sounded distant.I looked up.He was crouched in front of me.His hands were on my shoulders.His eyes moved over my face, searching."Are you hurt?"I opened my mouth.Nothing came out.He touched the side of my head."Nicole.""I'm fine."My voice barely sounded like mine.Raphael's gaze dropped to my hands.There was a thin cut across my palm.Blood had begun to gather along the line.His jaw tightened."You're bleeding."I looked down."I didn't feel it.""That's because you're still in shock."He reached for my hand.I pulled it away.His eyes lifted to mine.For a moment, neither of us spoke.Then I stood.My knees nearly buckled.Raphael caught my elbow

The Photograph in the GardenNicole's POV"What?"Joy didn't answer.Her fingers tightened around my wrist.Not enough to hurt.... but,Enough to stop me from moving.I looked at her face.She wasn't watching Raphael anymore.She was watching the garden.More specifically...The old tree at the far end.My stomach tightened."What is it?"Joy swallowed."I know that tree."I frowned."What?""The tree."Her voice had changed.It wasn't fear anymore.It was recognition.She released my wrist and walked toward the window.I followed.Raphael stood several feet outside, scanning the garden.His right hand remained beneath his jacket.Every movement was controlled.Careful.He looked toward the fence.Then the flowerpot.Then the trees.Nothing.No one.Joy pressed her palm against the glass."I've seen that tree before."I stared at her."Where?"She didn't answer immediately.Her eyes remained fixed on the branches.Then she whispered,"When you were little."Something inside my chest shi

The Things He Never Told MeNicole's POVThe car disappeared around the corner.I kept staring at the empty stretch of road long after the sound of its engine faded.Nobody spoke.The curtain slipped from Joy's fingers.She let it fall.Raphael remained beside the window, his eyes fixed on the place where the car had vanished.His jaw was tight.His shoulders were rigid.He looked like someone waiting for a second attack.I hated that.I hated how easily fear seemed to find everyone except me.Or maybe it found me too.Maybe I'd simply become too used to it."Who was that?"My voice sounded smaller than I wanted.Raphael turned."I don't know."I almost laughed."That's becoming your favorite answer."His expression tightened."Nicole.""No."I stepped away from the window."You don't get to do that.""Do what?""Say my name like it makes everything okay."He went quiet.I looked at Joy."Who are they?"Joy's fingers twisted together."I don't know."I stared at her."You do."She sho
