LOGINLucas’ POVMy heart pounded immediately. How could it not?If I were ever a twin, I’d have easily believed that my twin brother or sister had given birth to a child who looked like us entirely.But I was never a twin. That was a fact I had lived with all my life. Yet, right now, that fact felt unreliable.Because this boy was standing right in this tent, holding a toy car in his hand and playing with it, imagining himself being the driver of it and humming this familiar song to it.The sound hit me before the meaning did. Soft. Carefree. Innocent.And then it sank in.That song.My chest tightened.This was no coincidence. Or, was it?I stepped in with one foot forward slowly. My hands shaky as my heart continued to pound. Each step felt heavier than the last, like I was walking into something that could not be undone.I remembered it. The folklore.Under the moonlight, back then twenty years ago, my father told me a story.He noted that each human was created by science in double pie
Judy’s POV“Ma’am. The headmistress said the school is closed today because of an emergency. I don’t know. Should I bring him to the set?” Thatcher asked me out of the blue, her voice cutting into the calm of my morning.It was a new day, but not a slow one. I was already getting set to go to the location where we were acting out the next scene in the movie today, my schedule tight as always.Jonathan had already been taken to school by the driver and my personal assistant. Everything had gone as planned.Until it didn’t.Barely an hour after they left, Thatcher called me back.“Oh!” I sounded, caught off guard, obviously confused.“What did they say the emergency was about really?” I asked, my brows tightening as unease crept in.“Ma’am. The headmistress confirmed about a fire outbreak in one of the classes. But the fire is already taken out. They just need to ease the panic in the school and make sure everyone’s safety is prioritized. The school can resume next week.”“A fire outbre
Judy’s POVFeeling the force of the pull, I already knew who it was.The grip was firm, urgent, not the kind that came from hesitation. It carried weight. Intent.Who else could it be?John cannot pull me that way. He respected me enough that he bows to me every time. He would never cross that boundary, not even by mistake.Or was it the male lead?No. That thought faded as quickly as it came.He was always shy to look me in the face whenever we were off set. A man like that would not suddenly grow bold enough to grab me like this.That left only one person.“Mr Baker.” I said without looking back at him.“Did you see another leaf on my shoulder?”I kept my tone calm, almost casual, as if nothing about this moment was unusual.He hesitated for a second.That hesitation said everything. He had not expected that response.“Who are you really?” he asked. His voice desperate.There was no control in it anymore. Just urgency. Confusion. Something close to fear.I turned to him. Looked at h
Lucas’ POVI didn’t even know what to believe at this moment. I was already driving at 80km/hr when suddenly I jumped back to life.The hum of the engine filled the silence, steady but distant, like I wasn’t fully there. My hands were on the wheel, my eyes on the road, yet my mind refused to stay in one place.I don’t know but has it ever happened to you before?You’d be driving, but your thoughts are entirely elsewhere. At this moment, I was already asking myself many questions. Questions that refused to stay quiet.Was Claire just blindly jealous that she made me make a fool of myself in the front of Ms Kingpin or was there something that I didn’t know yet about Ms Kingpin.The more I thought about it, the less it felt like something I could ignore. Claire was many things, but she was not careless with accusations. Not like that.My heart was pounding heavily as I turned. I was nearest my street at this moment when the thought hit me again, harder this time.Earlier on, when John we
Lucas’ POV“Sure. Five minutes sir.” John said, bowing to me.I gave a slight nod, my gaze already drifting past him. I knew it. I didn’t need to be told. If not that I was the major investor, John wouldn’t have allowed it. He was strict with access, even to cast members. But because this movie was being produced with majorly my funding, he compromised in some of his standards and allowed me see MS Kingpin.I watched from a distance how he leaned towards her ear and whispered into her. His posture was careful, respectful. Like someone who knew her value on set.She looked at me almost immediately, and she nodded.That simple movement did something I couldn’t explain.I didn’t know why it happened but the way she looked at me, Claire’s words sounded in my ear again. Clear. Persistent. Refusing to be ignored.I also saw it. The eyes. It looked familiar. Too familiar. It looked like the eyes Judy looked at me with the moment she walked in on us seven years ago.My heart pounded immediatel
Judy’s POV(Two hours earlier.)“I’m afraid you cannot come in, sir. The patient rejected you being around her and we are to do everything she wants so that she can get better quickly.”I heard it loud and clear. And I just smirked on the bed where I was.The tone of the nurse was firm enough to convince anyone standing outside that this was serious. That I was fragile. That I needed space.Exactly what I wanted him to believe.Earlier on, I’d planned it successfully.You see, when you know someone like the back of your hand, it is almost like you can predict their next move.Claire was my sister. Every day of my childhood, she made sure to make it uncomfortable for me.From there, I’d already deduced it.She was someone who loved to have her way. If she didn’t have her way, she would do anything to get it. Even if it meant harming herself in the process.And tonight, she proved it again.While I was about to step into the hall, I’d called Thatcher, my personal assistant.I knew Clair
Lucas’ POV“Hurry babe, we’d be late for the party.” I said, my voice filled with concern.I glanced at the time again, my fingers tapping lightly against my thigh. This was not just any party. It was exclusive. Every second counted. I didn’t want to arrive late, not after I had personally invited
Judy’s POV"He was someone I knew a long time ago, Jonathan. But your family is right here."Truth be told, I hated lying to Jonathan. I had never lied to him before. Not once. But this morning felt different. It was important that I did not tell him the truth. Not because of my own indifference to
Judy’s POVJonathan and I stepped into the car that drove us here, to the hospital.The door shut softly behind us, sealing off the weight of everything that had just happened. For a brief moment, I allowed myself to lean back into the seat, exhaling quietly. Seeing Doctor Roseline again had stirre
Judy’s POV“I’m sorry…” she said slowly, her voice careful, searching, trying to remember but failing. I could see it clearly in her eyes, that struggle, that effort that led nowhere. And truly, like I said before, I didn’t blame her at all.Seven years was a long time. Long enough for faces to fad
