    The atmosphere was so thick with tension it felt like a funeral announcement had just been made. Every soul in the room held their breath, eyes darting between Jordan and Vivian as the silence stretched like a rubber band pulled too tight, threatening to snap at any moment.Jordan stood completely still, his jaw clenched, his mind racing. He couldn't tell her where he had been he knew he couldn't. The moment those words left his lips, everything would unravel. And with Vivian, nothing ever unraveled quietly.She was not that kind of woman.Vivian had never been soft. Never been the type to let things slide or look the other way. When it came to the things she wanted, the things she felt belonged to her, she fought with a ferocity that left people breathless and speechless all at once. Jordan had always known this about her. He had simply hoped today would be different.It wasn't."We need an answer, Jordan." Her voice was measured, deliberate, cutting through the silence like a blade.

    The moment Jordan saw her, his heart dropped to his feet.He moved toward her without thinking, legs carrying him before his mind could catch up and when they finally stood face to face, neither of them spoke. Words felt too small, too fragile for everything that had piled up between them. Seconds stretched into something that felt like years, the air between them thick with unspoken things."I'm so sorry, Mary. I "Before the words could fully leave his lips, she reached out and pulled him inside, closing the door behind them with a soft click that somehow felt louder than it should. Then she looked at him, really looked at him and whatever wall she had spent months carefully building crumbled all at once, brick by painful brick.She kissed him.It was quick, desperate, and over before it truly began. She pulled back and moved to the far side of the room, wrapping her arms around herself like she could physically hold her feelings in place. Like if she pressed hard enough, they would

    Mary's POVThe night was a heavy one.I could not sleep. The thought of what had happened at Lucius's school played through my mind on a loop, refusing to give me any peace. I lay there staring at the ceiling, turning it over and over until the darkness outside my window began to soften into grey.It was Sophia. It had to be. She was the only one who knew which school Lucius attended. I remembered that clearly from the hospital incident. I whispered it to myself like a conclusion, like saying it out loud would somehow settle the unrest inside me.It did not.I gave up on sleep and went to check on my baby.Lucius was already awake when I pushed his door open. He saw me come in and did not move. He just sat there on his bed, still and quiet, watching me with eyes that did not quite look like his own. No running toward me. No arms reaching up. No morning hug.That alone told me something was wrong.Lucius always gave me a morning hug.I moved closer slowly, the way you approach somethin

    Sophia's POVThe stick felt heavy in her hand.She stood behind Vivian, still as a shadow, watching, waiting. Every word Vivian had thrown at her the day before was still ringing so loudly in her head that her hand had tightened around the stick on its own. She wanted to strike her. She wanted to hit her so hard that every cruel word would shatter like glass.But then a thought crept in quietly, the way guilt always does.What would happen to me if I hurt her? How would Jordan feel? How would Grandma feel?She exhaled slowly, loosened her grip, and let the stick fall silently to the ground.No. I will not stoop to her level.She moved closer and placed both hands firmly on Vivian's shoulders.Vivian jumped so violently that her phone flew from her hands and hit the ground with a loud crack. She spun around, her chest heaving, her eyes wide with panic until they landed on Sophia's face.The fear did not leave her eyes. It only shifted into something else.But Sophia was no longer focus

    "Where did you see him? What... what made you see him?" she said, her voice laced with fear, as if something terrible had happened.I never wanted to tell her the whole story, but her question pulled it out of me like a thread unraveling a sweater. There was no going back now."Pamela, listen," I said, exhaling slowly as I gathered my thoughts.The look on her face said it all she was furious. I could tell just by the way her expression hardened, the way her jaw tightened and her eyes narrowed into something cold and sharp."I told you not to allow strangers near him! Not only did you disobey me, but you went as far as letting her spend the night with her!""That was the only decision I could make at that moment," I fired back, my voice steady despite the guilt tugging at my chest. "You were not around, Pamela. He could not have spent the whole day alone. Besides, I could not take him with me I did not want anyone disturbing me, and it was an emergency ward. He could have contracted a
