‘Finally! A start to something new. It has been three long years, and it’s about time to let everything go and have a fresh start.’ This was the very first thought that came into Cameron’s mind as he entered his new apartment, which was on the ninth floor of the building. The last three years have been tough for him. Divorce from his wife, the true colors of his ex-girlfriend, his parents’ disapproval of his behaviour, his efforts to mend his relationship with his sisters, everything has taken a toll on him. For the past three years, he has lived a life of guilt and has always felt responsible for his actions. However, when he looked at his apartment, he could not help but display a happy smile on his face. He might not be happy with where his life was right now, but it was a start. His new home wasn’t anything exclusive but a comfortable condo for him, just as he liked it. Unlike his former home, it didn't smell like costly photographs and wasn't crammed with overpriced exhibit it

“Marissa,” Cameron whispered in shock. He was unable to believe his eyes. He had lost almost all hopes of ever meeting her again, let alone discovering her as one of his neighbours. They both were standing in shock, trying to decipher the meaning of their sudden encounter, when Steve, her neighbour abruptly came out of nowhere. “Is everything alright here?” “I... um...” Marissa was having difficulty forming words. She was still trying to digest that Cameron Bernard was standing before her equally shocked by her presence. Steve, however, oblivious to the entire situation and their history asked Cameron, “Are you new here? I have not seen you before.” “Yes. I have just shifted here.” Cameron told him after composing himself. “And let me guess, the sudden and loud music from this apartment brought you here?” Steve asks him with amusement. “You could say that.” He replied with an uneasy smile. “Well, let’s say our little Marissa is illiterate when it comes to electronics or any ot

“I cannot believe you, Jennifer.” Cameron glared at his younger sister. “It’s not a big deal.” His sister rolled her eyes. “It’s not a big deal! Are you crazy? Imagine my surprise when I found out from Brook that you were getting married. I didn’t even know you were dating someone, let alone getting married. And the worst part is, I found this from my niece instead of my very own sister.” He exclaimed. “Well, what did you expect me to say when you called me the first time after so many years? Hey brother, you know I have a boyfriend. You don’t know that guy because when I met him, you were busy screwing your good-for-nothing girlfriend, especially when you finally came to your senses and tried to mend our relationship. I was hesitant to tell you because I was just waiting for the moment for you to disappear again. But fortuDevonly, you proved us all wrong.” Jennifer crossed her arms and grunted loudly. “That would have been better than nothing.” Both of them were shooting daggers a

Cameron was standing outside Marissa’s door, trying to build the courage to ring the doorbell. After a deep breath, when he was about to touch the bell, someone called from behind, causing him to have a mini heart attack. “Cameron,” “Fuck! Marissa, you scared the shit out of me.” He exclaimed loudly, one hand on his heart and breathing deeply. “I am sorry, but why are you standing outside my door?” She asked him curiously. Today, Marissa was late coming home as she had to run to the grocery store, so it was unusual for her to see her student uncle standing in front of her doorstep in all his glory. To move on with her life, she refuse to associate him as her past. It was their history. She do not know about him but she do not want any negativity in her life and it would be better for everyone if she pretends to omit that part of her life forever. Cameron would now only be her best friend’s brother and brother-in-law and Uncle of one of her student. “Well, you see, I kind of got

Caleb, Olivia, Ronny, Jennifer, Cameron, and Marissa were having dinner at an Italian restaurant. Things were going pretty smoothly, and unlike before or any other time, the atmosphere was not tense between Cameron and Marissa. True to their words, everything was actually fine between them. They might not be the best of friends, but on their own terms, they understood each other and knew where they stood with each other. “I love this place and its food,” Jenny said, with a dreamy look in her eyes. “Who doesn’t? On top of that, it’s an Italian restaurant which serves the best Italian food.” Olivia agreed with Jenny. “Can you both stop gushing about the food so that we can actually eat something?” Cameron rolled his eyes. His sisters do behave like kids. “Who is stopping you then?” Jenny narrowed her eyes at her brother. “Guys, cut it out. Don’t start fighting here.” Ronny intervened. “Marissa, how was your date last night?” Jenny asked teasingly, which caused her to choke and Cam
