The days slipped by quietly, but for James, each one felt like an eternity. Amanda had not answered a single message. Not a single call.

His mornings began with hopeful attempts to reach her and ended with him sitting outside her apartment, just to feel close to her, just to imagine that she might open the door. But she never did.

Her silence was heavier than any anger she could have thrown at him. It was final and left no room for hope.

Every note he slipped under her door carried a different version of the same thing. Explanations, regrets and a plea, but nothing changed.

James would lean against the door sometimes, speaking softly, knowing she was in there, telling her he was sorry, that he never wanted any of this and still loved her.

He would sit on the steps afterward, staring at her doormat, listening for any sign of movement.

The rustle of feet, a light switch—Anything. But all he heard was the quietness of the apartment.

Amanda, on the other side, sat curled up on the co

    Amanda sat alone on the edge of her bed, her back hunched, and her hands resting in her lap. The curtains were drawn, and the faint hum of traffic outside was the only sound in the room. She had not opened a single message from James in days, and the stack of notes he had left at her door remained untouched on her kitchen counter. Each one felt like a wound she couldn’t bring herself to reopen. The betrayal still sat heavy on her chest, a dull ache that didn’t go away even when she closed her eyes and tried to sleep.She could not understand how someone who had held her in his arms just days before, who had looked into her eyes with such tenderness, could so easily give himself to someone else. Whatever explanation he had, whatever excuses he wanted to give, she didn’t want to hear them anymore. She didn’t want to be swayed by his voice or his presence.But there was Kendall. The only thread left connecting her to James. The only reason she couldn’t completely cut him off from her

    James stood in the parking lot, one hand gripping his phone tightly, his thumb hovering over Amanda’s name. He had rehearsed everything he wanted to say, played it over in his mind until the words became a kind of prayer. He hadn’t slept. The guilt had sat heavy on his chest all night. All he wanted was to look her in the eye and tell her himself. He couldn’t allow her to find out through a screen or from someone else. She deserved more than that.He pressed the call button. It rang once, then went to voicemail. He tried again. Still nothing. A strange weight pressed against his chest, and he tried to ignore it. He told himself she might be asleep, or maybe her phone was off, or on silent. But when the third call was also rejected, he felt something cold and final, creeping up his spine. He texted her.“Amanda, please pick up. I need to talk to you. I’m coming to you.”He didn't wait for a reply. He started the car and drove like the road itself might disappear beneath him.*Aman

    Amanda sat on the couch, a half-empty mug of tea resting on the table beside her. The room was quiet except for the distant noise of traffic outside. She had not gone out much in the past few days. Her energy had been divided between searching for leads on Kendall and trying to gather pieces of her parents’ death that still didn’t make sense. There had been a time she could focus on one thing at a time. Now everything felt connected. Her heart was tired, but a small part of her still clung to hope.James hadn’t called, not in two days. Still, she hadn’t lost faith in him. She believed something was keeping him away. Something serious. He had always been the one to fight for her, to hold her hand even when everything around them was falling apart. Maybe he needed space to fix whatever was keeping him silent. Maybe he was protecting her from something.She pulled her phone closer, the screen lighting up with updates and messages she hadn’t yet opened. A part of her hesitated. She wa

    James sat with his back straight, fingers curled tightly around the edge of the armrest. The air in the room was thick with silence, yet his heart pounded with the weight of everything he was about to say. After agreeing to finally marry Betty, he decided to meet with both Agnes and Betty to make a request.Agnes sat across from him, her posture composed, and hands resting calmly in her lap. Betty, beside her, looked unbothered, flipping through her phone screen as if the world outside had no hold over what was happening within these walls.“Since I’m going to do what’s been asked of me by marrying Betty. I want to ask for a favour,” James began, his voice low but steady. He looked between the two women, then settled his eyes on Betty.Betty looked up slowly, lifting an eyebrow. Her lips curved ever so slightly, but she said nothing yet.James turned to Agnes. “But before anything concerning the marriage becomes public, I want the chance to speak to Amand, myself. I won’t appreciate

    James stood in the middle of the living room, his phone still in his hand, though the call had ended minutes ago. His fingers curled tightly around the device. His mind was running in circles, bouncing from Amanda’s smile to the threats Betty’s family had laid on the table. He hadn’t even sat down before Agnes walked into the room, her heels clicking softly against the floor.“You’ve heard about their marriage proposal, haven’t you?” she asked, her voice calm. She didn’t wait for his answer. “Betty’s family means business, you can’t say no when you know what they’re capable of.”He looked at her, searching for something in her face. He didn’t know what he was hoping to find. A sliver of understanding or hint of compassion—Anything.“So that’s it?” His voice came out quiet, but laced with disbelief. “You’ve already decided I should marry her.”“I didn’t decide it, James,” Agnes said, sitting down carefully. “The situation is deciding for us.”“You’re siding with them,” he said. “With
