It was Sunday.Yet, Benjamin had to go to work, and Selena used this to talk trash about Benjamin’s job to her daughter.“Even on Sundays, he delivers pizzas to strangers,” Selena snorted. “He can’t even take his wife to a movie or anywhere for that matter. Oh, wait, he can take you along to deliver pizzas, can’t he, Rebecca? Why don’t you ask him to take you along next week?”Rebecca had sat down to watch the news, but her mother was bothering her.“Don’t look at me like that, sweetie,” Selena said without blinking. “You brought that man here without knowing his roots. We have no idea what kind of a person he is. While he may look like a hardworking character in front of us, what is his real character? How does he behave when none of us are watching? Now, what do you call a man who gives thousands of dollars to a woman he has never met before?”“What are you getting at exactly, Mom?” Rebecca hissed. “Stop beating around the bush and get to the point.”“If the man has lots of money, t

Benjamin was making his delivery during the evening on Sunday.His delivery point turned out to be a private masonic lodge. When Benjamin arrived there, he saw the symbols at their entrance and did not wish to enter the building. So, he called the person on his mobile and told them to come out and take the delivery.Moments later, two old men in black suits came out of the lodge. They weren’t his customers, but they saw Benjamin and could not take their eyes off of him.Benjamin did not like their gazes, but he ignored them.Still, they came closer to him with a smile on their faces. “You have the looks needed to become a top movie star. So, why are you delivering the pizzas? Have you ever tried auditioning for films?”“I’m not interested in acting,” Benjamin replied.“Don’t speak such profane things,” one of those two men took out his visiting card. “Take this and give us a call. We’ll introduce you to some important figures in the movie business. I’m sure they’ll give you a chance.”

At around 6:15 in the morning.Rebecca opened her eyes. She quickly looked to her left to see if Benjamin was still there. And he was still sleeping, with his head put on the pillow. But no part of his body crossed the line.Rebecca did not regret allowing him to sleep on the bed because he didn’t cause any trouble. However, as she looked at him sleeping so defenselessly, she found herself staring at his face, which looked very bright as the morning light hit his face.His bright pink lips made her heart beat a little faster. Those were like the lips of a child and were full of life.She kept staring at him, pulling her lower lip into her mouth. (Control yourself, Rebecca. He’s a man. How can I lose my control over him when he didn’t lose his control?) She clenched her fist and then somehow managed to get off the bed.She did not make any sounds as it might wake him up. She quietly opened the door and walked out.She could hear the discussion happening in the hall downstairs.“Just wh

For the next few weeks, Benjamin had tried various methods to get closer to Rebecca. He would tell her how good she looks and how nice she smells, and how beautiful her smile was, but she would act indifferent to his advances. When he tried to hold her hand, she would pull her hand away and spare a cold gaze at him.And at the same time, Selena was always trying to separate them, hoping one of those two would give up on the other before Rebecca got pregnant.Benjamin had to pay his salary and the tip-income to Selena. Though he was a little frustrated about it, he was also glad that Rebecca did not demand him for things like food or clothes.Then again, should he be happy that she wasn’t relying on him for anything?It had been a few months since they got married.There was no kissing.There was no hugging.No touch.No intimacy.When Benjamin got a little excited one evening and hugged Rebecca when she came to pick him up from his job, she got angry and then told him to live in a se

In Shawn’s room.Shawn looking at a nude video of Sofia Bacic. “How is this possible? In the video, she clearly has the vagina, but I surely saw something else when I pulled her pants down. What the hell is going on? Does this mean this video is fake? Is she a he or a she? What is fake? What is real?” He was so confused and also terrified at the same time.Suddenly, the door was knocked.Shawn immediately shut the laptop, and then Selena entered the room. If he was a second late, she would have seen something she would have regretted. “M-Mom, what brought you here so early in the morning?”Elizabeth was still sleeping on the bed.“I need to talk to you about something,” Selena said. “Outside.”“Give me a minute,” he told her.After Selena left, he deleted the browsing history and then went to meet his mother on the rooftop.It’s been so long since both of them were together on the rooftop. Perhaps, the last time was more than twenty years ago.Shawn understood that she wanted to talk
