It took every last bit of strength for Alicia to reach her car. She sat behind the wheel, her breath uneven, and stared at the paper in her trembling hands.

“Positive,” she whispered. Her voice shook. “But… how is that even possible?”

Her grip on the paper tightened.

“How on earth did this happen? Did Mum and Dad know… before they died?”

Her head fell forward until her forehead rested on the steering wheel. She shut her eyes tight, trying to block out the storm of thoughts. But the voices in her head kept arguing, getting louder and louder until she couldn’t take it anymore.

After a long breath, she started the engine. She didn’t even think about where she was going; her hands simply turned the wheel.

By the time she looked up properly, she was outside Amaya’s café.

Amaya noticed her the moment she stepped in. She looked like she had walked through a storm and left the rain behind her.

Amaya came from behind the counter, wiping her hands on her apron.

“Good morning,” she said, tryin

    “We might as well sit and talk about this.”Lucas dropped into one of the sofas in his room. His shoulders slumped with a tired weight. Ethan followed slowly, his eyes never leaving his brother’s face.“She gave birth to a daughter, Maya.” He paused, rubbing his hands together. “Three years ago, we thought she died. Alicia… we thought she drowned. But somehow, she was saved. She lost her memory, apparently. She only came back to us when she finally remembered. The story is long, Ethan, way too long. We’re finalizing our divorce now. I didn’t want to bring all of this up until my divorce is finalized. Then maybe, you can have your chance to be with your daughter.”Lucas paused for a while and continued. “I have a woman in my life now. Someone I adore and love. Ethan… I prayed for this moment, for you to come back. But you’ll need to be patient.”For a moment, Ethan didn’t say anything. He absorbed what he just heard and finally spoke.“I’m not here to take her away from you,” he said

    “Married… what are you saying?” Alicia forced a little laugh, her hands holding tightly to the glass in front of her. “Did I get married and I am not aware?” She drank the juice quickly, using the taste of the cold drink to cover how nervous she felt. Under the table, her feet tapped nonstop, thankful the table was high enough for Tim not to notice.Tim was watching her. “I thought as much,” he said calmly. “You mentioned something like that when we travelled to New York, though you were tipsy because you slept off almost immediately.”Alicia’s lips stretched into a smile, though her insides churned. She lifted her spoon and pushed some food into her mouth, chewing slowly to buy herself time. Then she set the spoon down, standing up.“Thank you so much, Tim. I’m full,” she said, forcing her voice to be back to normal. “I didn’t know how much I missed your cooking until I tasted it again. I’ll have a shower and sleep, it’s been a stressful day.”Tim nodded.Upstairs, she collapsed onto

    Alicia stood there, her eyes still glued to the man jogging away with his headset on. For a second, she thought she was losing her mind. His face…it was Lucas. But no, this man was slightly different. He was more muscular in a way Lucas had never been.“Are my eyes getting bad?” she whispered to herself. “That is Lucas… but he looks different. Am I drunk? But I didn’t take any alcohol.”She pulled out her phone and dialed Lucas’s number. The line connected quickly.“Hey… I am good,” she said, her eyes still on the path where the man had disappeared. “Quick one, were you walking some minutes ago?” She paused, listening. Lucas’s voice on the other end was calm, almost bored.“Oh, you’re still in your office. No… It’s fine. Sure, I still remember.” She ended the call and let out a long sigh.“This is crazy,” she muttered, shaking her head. “How can two people look almost the same?”She stopped a cab and they went off, still replaying the image of the man in her mind. When the car stopped

    N: B There was a small error in Chapter 69; it should be “Danielle Smith,” not “Alicia Smith”; apologies for the oversight, and I hope my editor accepts the edit.“I love you, Daniella Smith, just say yes already.”Bryan’s voice was low, but his eyes held a softness that made Alicia’s hands tremble.He repeated it, this time slower, his words rolling off his tongue like he had been holding them in for years.“It is complicated,” she said. “Even though I want to jump up at this… but I can’t. Bryan.”For the first time, she admitted it, not just to him, but to herself. She had been fighting, running, pretending she could bury the feelings that crept up every time he looked at her. But here it was, raw and naked in front of him.Her eyes welled up, a small tear sliding down. Quickly, she wiped it off, not wanting him to see her weakness. She stood up fast, brushing off her clothes, trying to look busy. Then, without giving herself more time to think, she grabbed his hand and dragged him.

    “What are you doing here?”Before Zoe could even open her mouth, Diego appeared at the door carrying the grocery bags in his hands. His voice was quick, almost like he had rehearsed it.“She is my friend. Remember, Alicia and I have known each other way back from college. She came to see me.”He didn’t wait for Becky to argue. He brushed past her, dropped the grocery bags in the kitchen, and came back to the sitting room. Becky was still standing, her eyes were glued on Zoe. Zoe sat calmly, she crossed her legs, looking unbothered as if Becky wasn’t even there.“Can I talk to you in private, Becky?” Diego said.Becky’s eyes didn’t leave Zoe, but she nodded. “Sure, let’s go.”They went inside his room. Becky’s eyes scanned the space. The designer sneakers were neatly lined up on the rack, expensive perfumes were arranged on the shelf, and the shine of his wristwatches. She couldn’t resist; she touched one sneaker, then ran her fingers along a perfume bottle, finally shaking her head.“

    “We thought you were…” he finally began.“Dead.” Ethan finished the sentence. “I know. Now, will you let me in with my luggage, or should I stand here like a statue, you fool?”For a moment, Lucas just stared at him. Then, against the heaviness in his chest, a laugh slipped out. That was Ethan, right there, always cracking jokes even when the world felt like it was ending.Lucas stepped aside, and Ethan dragged his luggage in. He walked into the living room, dropped his bag with a loud thud, and slowly turned in a circle, scanning the place with his eyes. His lips curved into a smile.“It feels good to be here again… after what, years?” Ethan asked, running his fingers along the armrest of a chair before sitting down.“Six years,” Lucas said. “Six solid years. Nobody heard from you. How did you even know you’d find me here?”Ethan sat back, folding his hands behind his head, his smile still there. “This is your house, Lucas. I know it’s been a long time, and maybe you moved houses, bu
