Zayn’s POV "Why did you follow me?! I thought you and Stacy would be having a bond." I anxiously asked her after she gave me a myocardial infarction that almost caused me to sideswipe one of dad’s valuable images, a medium-sized picture frame of his portrait. I thought I was going to be in a solemn atmosphere with a bit of dad's presence, but Eleanor appears, puzzled. "I ran away from Stacy, mentioning to her that I would be comforting myself first at the nearest comfort room when I saw you suspiciously moving away from the chair you were seated at. I had this feeling that you were strangely going to proceed with a movement that was interesting enough for me to ditch those girls. I seriously felt through my nerves that it is more likely attached to you that you were intentionally planning something inside your mind." Is this the true effect of our boundless love? Being able to feel her own sentiment even if she leaves in plain silence is not just on my part, but also hers. She is

Eleanor’s POV"You know what, for years of being isolated alone away from her and used to being a lonely person, there were various plans and revenge appearing in my mind, until now. I want her to feel the pain that she gave me. The past several new years and Christmas, every birthday that I had was a complete silence." He is full of resentment, I can see it in his eyes."A serious question, do you really want to take revenge or you can’t just let go of the pain?""Who could ever tend to ease the heartless thing she did to our family? Absolutely, that is not me.""But do you still have that kind of love for her, as a mother?" I need to assess his insights to be able to determine how I can respond, without puncturing his point of view."Zayn? You still with me?""I never thought of that. I couldn’t think of the right answer for now." He looked away, functioning not keeping track of my eye contact.*Ring (3x)"Man, where are you?! You and Eleanor both disappeared at the same time. Your m

Eleanor’s POVZayn observed around, trying to catch a glimpse of every person who was watching at the moment. "You are one of mom’s children, aren’t you?" Zayn pulled me back and stopped moving for a while to entertain. "I thought you’d never recognize me. Yes, I am. I am the one next to you, as the eldest child among our brothers and sisters. I’ve been wanting to meet you personally and create a bond together. Mom told me so much about you, which made me more excited to spend time with you." Unlike their mother, I can see genuine, not fake, emotion on his face. Or maybe he acts so well that I cannot even compare him to his own female parent. "Really? Are you sure that we have the same mother? As far as I know, mine does not complement me when it comes to her stories, besides mentioning that my biological father is rich. Anyways, may I know how to uhm-- address you?" "Clyde, I do not mean to offend you, but let me get straight to the point. I have no interest in knowing you or any

Eleanor’s POV"Can you give me a hard slap on the face? I might be dreaming after all that occurred just an hour ago. Maybe there is still a chance to escape this new chapter that has been revealed." The first few sentences that I verbalized as I and Zayn finally reached his home We need to rest a lot. This day has been too much for us and our families. "I would love to do that just to pull out the thorn in your heart right now, but of course you know that I will never physically hurt you, so it is a no for me. This is already the reality, Eleanor. This is an actuality that we need to face." Still, I could not move on from the fact that dad has another family to take care of. It was just immediately placed in front of me that I am not the only responsibility of my father, which is what I have been used to for a long time."We really are dealing with our family problems. I thought I would be the only one watching you at the village, but you also caught a glimpse of mine. I-I don’t kno

Eleanor’s POVBefore stating my verdict to Aunt Grace’s words, I peaked behind us and was still able to see dad’s figure. He did step, following my rushed path. Perhaps he felt guilty. Forgetting that he still had his primeval child What on earth is this kind of affair? I came here to the mall to locate the peace that my mind and soul are coveting, but destiny made its way to let me still subscribe to the inflexible events that my life is racking with pain.Although the other half is not with him, he is meters away from us. We need to get out of here before he comes by and catches up with me. Oh boy, I can describe them as both great walls that would crash me into pieces once they both come near me."This is serious, Eleanor. We should discuss matters for Zayn’s present and future." Aunt Grace looks determined, as if he came across the city just to see me. "H-How did you find me here?" The first ponder that came to mind when I saw Aunt Grace was her being an accomplice with my half
