Grayham’s POV

I flipped the open sign for the first time in a week and then watched it with a sigh. I have officially opened the doors to the café since Alex’s passing.

Even though Miles had informed me to start running the place before our trip to New York City, I didn’t open the place until today.

I stood still and kept watching the door. Opening the place meant I was ready to take on without Alex. It also means I had agreed to carry on with his son’s life. Maybe until I find a solution because trust me, my eyes are still out there.

I walked back to the counter and continued mopping the top.

I couldn’t sleep last night. I don’t know whether it was because I watched a boy die but I tossed from the edge of the bed to the other and finally gave up around 4 am.

So I decided to clean the whole place and I think I did a good job because the floors were sparkling, the coffee trays and mugs were well arranged and there was water boiling in the kitchen while the snacks were ready to be ser

  • THE SWITCH: 100 DAYS OF ME AND YOU     ‘FOREVER’

    Mile’s POVThree months later.I clasped my tie and looked at my reflection in the mirror. A bright smile covered my face and I immediately turned to the door.I was ready.Suddenly, the door to my room opened and Glinda snuck her head inside. “It’s time. Everyone is here. Well, except for one person,” she said.I rushed toward the door and opened it wide. “What do you mean by that? He said he’ll be here on time,”Glinda came after me as I was climbing down the staircase. “Well, maybe he’s on his way. I’m sure he’ll be here,”“I need him,” I said, and then stopped when we reached the second floor. “I can’t do this without him,”Glinda placed a hand on my left shoulder. “I know,”Suddenly, Max came rushing toward us. “Hey, everyone is gathered and Grayham’s car just pulled up,”I smiled and started hurrying toward the door.Glinda laughed. “I told you he was going to be here,”“You look good by the way,” Max yelled at my departing figure.“Thanks, buddy,” I yelled back and made my way

    Mile’s POVI opened my eyes and caught the ceiling above. It wasn’t the fancy ceiling or the chandelier hanging in the Wilson mansion. This was the old and brown ceiling I grew up knowing. This is my home.I smiled, sat up, and dropped my legs on the floor then I stretched.When I looked through the window, I realized that the sun was setting. I sighed, got up, and began to get dressed. Immediately after Glinda and I returned from the hospital, she ate and I went upstairs shortly after eating to sleep.I slept for over 8 hours.Looks like I needed the rest because right now, I feel so invigorated. After putting on my clothes, my usual comfy clothes, I traced my way out of the room and started marching toward the café.When I reached the café, it was empty.I heard pots clanging in the kitchen and just when I was about to head in that direction, Glinda emerged with a towel in her wet hands.She smiled and began to dab her hands with the towel. “You’re awake. I’m making dinner. I wanted

  • THE SWITCH: 100 DAYS OF ME AND YOU    NEW LOOK

    Mile’s POVI opened my eyes and caught the white ceiling hanging above. My vision was blurry. I roved my eyes around and slowly, the wares in the room I was confined in began to manifest but before I noticed the drip hooked to my hand, the white sheets of the monitors beeping on the wall, the strong scent of medication had taken charge of my nostrils.I was in a hospital. I sighed.Flashes from last night’s incident fluttered in my mind. I remember going to the oak tree with Grayham and I remember the strange incident that occurred when I tried to leave.The fark clouds, the wind, and the earthquake. I sprang from the bed immediately and turned to the other side of the room. Then my eyes caught Grayham, lying on his back. He was asleep.My jaw almost dropped to the floor when I realized that it was Grayham who was actually lying in that bed. Grayham is in his body.I stared at my hands. Does this mean that I’m back in my body?I felt my face and rushed to the wall. There was a mirror

  • THE SWITCH: 100 DAYS OF ME AND YOU    THE TREEE

    Glinda had her eyes glued to the wall clock and when the hour hand struck 10pm, she turned to Grayham. “It’s time,”He was seated in the café, his gaze fixated on the window. He was already dressed and waiting for 10 p.m. Grayham got up, adjusted his jacket, and breathed a sigh.The café closed about an hour ago.The ritual was slated for an hour before midnight which puts it at 11pm. Since the oak trees were about 40 minutes away from the old street, Glinda suggested they leave by 10 pm so they would arrive on time.Grayham was about to step out of the house when he heard a car revving outside. He had booked a ride for 10pm and it seems the driver had already shown up.His grandfather wanted Sam to come down and pick them up but Grayham didn’t want to raise any questions in Sam’s mind when he eventually picks him up at night and drops him in a strange area so he settled for Uber instead.Together with Glinda, they marched toward the vehicle and settled in the back seat. As the car sw

    Grayham’s POVHis hands travelled inside my shirt and were soon moving across each part of my chest, drawing soft moans from me. I threw my head backward and allowed the sensation to run all over my body while I relished the pleasure.No one has ever touched me this way. Absolutely no one. He coiled both my nipples repeatedly and I wanted to die from pleasure.Miles and I were making out in one of the rooms on the second floor.Now, how did we get here?Miles joined us to serve some drinks at the counter and by the time the customers receded at noon, Max left to grab some stuff at home. Since there was no one in the cafe and Glinda was still having her beauty sleep on the third floor, I suggested that we go check out the guest room on the second floor.I thought that since Kaden home provides shelter, why don’t we make the few rooms on the second floor like some form of hotel? To test this theory, I had one of the rooms repainted, tiled, and furnished. We placed a bed, some furniture

    Grayham’s POV“This way,” I said and led Glinda into the mansion. We arrived at 7 a.m. sharp, just as planned. As we walked toward the dining room, I watched her eyes scan the room with a wave of excitement plastered across her face.This morning, we will be having breakfast with Miles and my grandfather. Now that my grandfather is aware of the switch situation he requested we have breakfast with Glinda and when she learned about it, she couldn’t be more pleased.The butler led us to the dining room and we sat facing Miles and my grandpa. While the servants were fixing our plates and utensils, nobody said a word until they were done and had vanished.My grandfather cleared his throat loudly and then reached for the coffee pot. “Do tell me, Glinda. How does it feel to be in this situation? Unlike me who just figured out, you’ve always known that your nephew was trapped. How does it feel because I barely slept last night,”I sighed, threw my hand on the table, and clasped my grandpa’s h
