    Randy took Julian to the pool in the backyard. The moment they got there, he spread his arms wide and said. ''Wooo… it feels so good out here.''Julian could only smile faintly, still wary.''Let’s sit.''

    Julian stood at the window, watching Adrian walk through the garden. His mind was spinning, calculating his plan. He needed to get it in motion, but the thought of getting closer to Adrian made him both furious and nervous. He took a deep breath, trying to steady himself.Suddenly, Adrian’s gaze met his. Their eyes locked, and for a moment, neither moved. Then Adrian gestured for him to join him. Julian’s first instinct was to refuse, but instead, he nodded. Surprise flashed across Adrian’s face, subtle but clear. Julian knew he’d see that expression again and again.He sighed and left his room, stepping quietly into the garden. When he reached Adrian, he simply stood beside him, letting the warm, calm atmosphere wash over him. The air carried the sweet scent of flowers, birds chirped, and butterflies flitted around. The fragrance and serenity calmed him slightly, and his expression softened. A small part of him longed for freedom, to soar away like the birds and butterflies.Without

    Julian angrily grabbed Adrian's shirt, tears streaming down his cheeks, his eyes blazing with rage. "You bastard!" He yelled, his voice filled with pain. "You gave me your word, you said you wouldn't kill her but you did! You brutally murdered her!" He yelled.Adrian's men wanted to retaliate, but Adrian secretly raised his hand a bit, and they stepped back, bowing their heads instead, not wanting to see their boss being humiliated."What do you mean, pup? I have no idea what you're talking about." Adrian said, his voice calm.Julian's grip tightened on his shirt. "Lair." He said through gritted teeth.

You gave me your word, but you went ahead and killed her instead." He roughly pushed Adrian away.Adrian staggered a bit but managed to maintain his balance. A look of confusion flashed in his eyes. "What?" He muttered.Jul

    Julian stood under the tree, waiting. He had managed to sneak into his home unnoticed, gather his hidden savings and a few clothes, and slip out. As he left, he felt a pang of sadness staring at the house one last time. But he didn’t regret it. He only wished his father and sister would finally live an honest life without him.
