    Eloise was at a small-rented apartment when she heard a knock on the door. The past weeks had left a particular kind of tiredness that sleep didn't resolve. She went to open the door and was surprised to see Donald standing there.“Brother?” she called in surprise.Since the day she was rescued, he hadn't come to see her. She totally understood that he was busy. Before he could say anything, she stepped forward and hugged him tightly.“I’m so sorry,” she apologized quickly. “I’m sorry for everything. For being careless, for not listening, for getting myself into trouble…”Donald gently patted her back. “It’s okay. You’re safe now. That’s what matters.”He then pulled back slightly. “I didn’t come alone.”She frowned a little. “You didn’t?”He stepped aside, and two men walked forward.Fernando appeared first and she froze for that moment, completely shocked.“Dad?” He looked at her, also emotional. “Eloise…”She walked toward him hugged him too. “Dad, I'm so sorry.” she apologized, a

She had rehearsed the words in her head many times, but now that he was actually in front of her, she suddenly felt nervous.He noticed her strange behavior. “Why do you keep looking at me like that?”She hesitated, then said, “I need to tell you something.”He immediately became serious. “What is it? Is everything okay?”She nodded quickly. Her lips twitched, but the nerves didn’t leave. “Everything is fine. It’s… it’s actually good news. I think.”“You think?”She exhaled, already flustered. “I mean, it is good news. I just don’t know how to say it without sounding…” she bit her lips.“Kara, you’re scaring me a little.” That made her laugh nervously. “Don’t be.”“Too late.”She took a deep breath. Her fing

    Kara went to the agency a few days later. The first thing she noticed was that Elira was not around. She asked one of the models while waiting for Victoria. “Her brother passed away. She’s been away, preparing for his funeral.”She froze.“Her brother… died?” she repeated softly.The woman nodded.She didn’t say anything else, but her mind started racing. She remembered the brother, couldn’t help but wonder if he was somehow connected to Salvatore.She met Victoria who apologized for what happened. She nodded slowly. “It’s okay.”Victoria looked at her carefully. “Although… you look like you’ve added a bit of weight.”She frowned immediately. “That’s not possible. I have been following the diet strictly.”Victoria didn’t argue. “Let’s check.”They both went into the assessment room, and Kara stepped onto the scale. They both looked at the result, and her eyes widened.She had gained four kilograms.“What?” she said in disbelief. “That’s not possible…”Victoria looked at the numbers a

    That night, everyone stayed at the family house. It happened without anyone formally deciding it.Emilia fell asleep on the couch in the sitting room, a blanket pulled over her, her face relaxed in sleep. Edward's mother had covered her without waking her and left the lamp low, and no one suggested moving her.Kara sat in the kitchen for a long time with Edward and his father, talking about smaller things. On the other side of the house, Luci and Ann were sitting together quietly. Luci had been quiet for most of the night.She eventually said, “I keep thinking about what it must be like. To have parents like that." she nodded toward the hallway, "Not to have lost them, I mean. Just to have them. The way they look at Aunt Kara and Aunt Emilia."Ann looked at her.She continued, "I know I had parents. I remember enough to know that they would have loved me.

    “So,” she glanced around, “first big party. Thoughts?” “Too loud. Too crowded. But… interesting.” he replied honestly. “Interesting is polite for chaos.” “Exactly.” Miguel returned then, holding two drinks. He handed one to Luci with a small smile. “You disappeared.” “Five seconds.” Edward’s e
