Her Father's Friend 79. Playing with Fire
“Okay.” Avra finally manages to switch the stove on. “Um, how long should I boil it?”Cassie smiles at her excitement. “No need to boil it, actually. Just stir it until it thickens.”Avra blinks cluelessly. “And… when does it thicken exactly?”Cassie giggles affectionately this time. “Less than ten minutes.”“You think I’m an idiot, right?” Avra giggles at herself. “Still, I’m playing with fire here.”“Shush!” Cassie playfully slaps her friend’s arm. “Don’t say such things. Start stirring, chop chop!”While Avra is busy with the filling, Cassie starts organizing the mess they’ve made. She gathers the dirty bowls from the counter and begins loading them into the dishwasher. Of course, her intention isn’t to leave a spotless kitchen for Mrs. Raptis.Since Mathias is still there, she turns it into a little show. She bends over more than necessary, arching subtly as she places each dish inside– slowly, very slowly.“Hey, girls.” Mathias calls out behind them.“Yes, dad?” Avra turns to her
Her Father's Friend 78. Heat it First
There is another person in the kitchen with them. “Such a pleasure to have you here, sweetie.”Avra lets out a thin laugh. “I’m always in the kitchen.” She says defensively, still whisking the mixture. “It’s you who isn’t seen here.”An amused exhale. “If you were always here, you might have noticed I make my own coffee every weekend.” The voice sends shivers into Cassie’s body. She presses her hand onto her chest. “Okay, okay.” Avra laughs again. “If you wait for it, you can have Byko Pie near your coffee.”A pause. “Byko?”Cassie rolls her eyes while taking the coconut package out of the fridge. Her friend still pronounces it wrong.“Oh, not Byko.” Avra thinks for a second, then calls out. “Hey, Cass. What was the name again?”Cassie slowly straightens, her heartbeat quickens. Across the kitchen island, their gazes meet.Surprise hits Mathias’s face -raw and unguarded- at the sight of her standing there, in the middle of the day, in his kitchen. It’s obvious he just came back from
Her Father's Friend 77. In My Kitchen
After she comes back home, Cassie lies down on her bed for a while. Then she takes a long shower to cool her nerves. At the end of this turmoil, she decides that it's kind of soothing that Mathias is trapped by that woman. It means he didn't choose Emily of his own free will. It sounds selfish to wish that were true, but for the first time in her life, Cassie doesn't feel inadequate next to Emily Raptis. That woman was a fraud and Mathias was her captive, not a passionate lover. Yes, that must be the truth. After getting out of the bathroom, she texts Avra. They were supposed to meet for a cooking session and this is a great opportunity for Cassie to see Mathias. Me: Hello Av! What's up? Her friend’s response comes immediately. Avra: Trying to survive against my mother's endless advice... How are you? Cassie winces, she knows how it feels to get schooled by Mrs. Raptis. Me: Fine. Remember we had a cooking class? Wanna do it this weekend? 💕 Cassie chews her bottom
Her Father's Friend 76. Can't Change the Past
Hello again, my dear loyal readers!I'm sorry for the long wait - I hope it won't happen again “There, sweetie.” Aunt Gilda enters the room with a pair of blue gel packs. “They’ll soothe your eyes in seconds.”Cassie looks at Gilda’s reflection in the mirror. The woman tells her to close her eyes, and she obeys like a mindless little girl, slowly laying her head back. How could she? How could Emily force her baby on a man who had no idea it even existed. It’s the lowest thing a woman could ever do to a man.Gilda places the cold packs onto her eyelids –a useless attempt. Cassie's eyes don't hurt because of the tonic. Her pain comes from the depths of her aching soul.Cassie is certain that Mathias had no idea about his daughter until Emily informed him. If he’d known, he wouldn’t have left his girlfriend alone wit
Her Father's Friend 75. The Biggest Mistake
When he gets in the parking lot of that restaurant, Mathias sits in his car for a while. He was fine when he left Robinson like a wounded wolf. But now, alone with his thoughts, the old memories haunt him mercilessly. Leaning his head back against the driver’s seat, Mathias closes his eyes and lets them bring him into that day. The day his life was ruined by someone as insidious as evil. He was twenty-one back then, newly graduated college with honors, making his father proud as ever. Mathias had been accepted to three Ivy League schools, and before the semester started, his father sent him to Florida as a reward -along with other gifts. It was Alexander Raptis’s way, he never showed affection directly, only threw expensive things at his son. Mathias wasn’t complaining, though. He used his father’s resources for fun just as much as for career success. Between parties in Vegas and events in LA, from the deserts in Africa to the beaches of the Far East, Mathias had a rough youth
