Chapter 12 Getting to know each other"Your mom is really fun to be with." Asher complimented as they strolled towards the town park."She could be too much sometimes." Mia replied.Asher laughed. “Maybe. Mothers are just that way. So, I heard you make furniture’s. And I must say I have never come across such raw talent.”Her face beamed with pride at the compliment. "Yeah I do. And I draw out designs of them before putting out the practical.""Wow, that’s really nice. I would love to see them sometime.""I would love to show you.""So what got you interested in furniture? They aren't really a ladies thing.""Maybe…but mom always say I got the talent from Dad. He loves wood and could frame them into anything. She said he had singlehandedly built the house I was born into.""I would love to meet him.""He is dead.” She announced.Asher’s smile dropped. “I am so sorry…I didn't know. Your mom didn't mention it to me.""It must have slipped her mind, I guess.""Pardon me please. Here we a

Chapter 14 He is aliveJack stared at his friend who was perspiring really hard. He feared for the nail his friend kept hammering on and it was almost like he meant horror for it. They were at Liam’s workshop. Jack had learned so far that his friend only worked harshly when he has something bothering him."Liam, what's with you this time around?" He asked wearily.Liam didn't respond instead he kept hitting on the plank violently. Jack sighed deeply, moving next to him, he held his hands tightly despite knowing well that he is much stronger than him."Get your hands off me, Jack!" Liam growled."No, I won't. Not until you tell me what's eating you up." He insisted."Let go of me Jack.”"Liam, threaten me as much as you want but I am not letting go this time.""Goddammit Jack! I can't do this anymore." Liam turned away after dropping the hammer."What exactly can't you do anymore?" Jack asked with a confused look on his face."Living a life full of lies.”"How?""I want Barbara out of m

Chapter 16 Cheryl’s storyBarbara stared at him, he seemed extremely uncomfortable cause his hold on the coffee cup was too tight and his gaze was transfixed on the ground. Sometimes she did wish he could love her just as much as she was willing to love him, but she couldn't enforce herself on someone unwilling. She wasn't that desperate. Bracing herself for what he had to say, she cleared her throat."Night would fall soon, Liam, what is it you have to say to me?"Liam raised his head slowly, trying to find the right words to say. "I really didn't mean for it to end this way Barbara. You are an awesome woman and I can't find it in myself to keep deceiving you. As much as you have shown me so much love…I can't reciprocate. I have loved a woman before and I still love her till now and coupled with the fact that she was with my child then. I can't bring myself to move on when I have no idea where my family is. Whether dead or alive, I can only find peace when I find out. Please forgive

Chapter 18 First Timer"I feel so bored, this assignment seem like the hardest thing I have ever come across in my whole life." Asher whined hitting the pen he was using on the floor."Stop complaining Asher and just keep up with the work." Mia rebuked him."How am I supposed to anyway when you distract me." He lowered his voice pulling her legs.“Let me go, Asher!” She kicked his hands. They were sprawled out in the Duckstein’s living room after deciding it was the best space to do the assignment given to them. They had been asked to sketch a resort and with details of how it would be structured. A core course for Asher and a borrowed course for Mia and she had offered to help him out. But instead of working, all Asher did was complain and make Mia do most of the work."You aren't doing anything at all, I have been the one up and about. I won't be doing your assignments or projects for you anymore, Asher. Don't even think about it." She warned him with a stern look on her expression

Chapter 20 Cold handsCatty gulped down the whiskey in anger, she was boiling. What was it that Mia had which she didn't? She couldn't explain why Asher wouldn’t just choose her over Mia! She poured herself two more cups downing them all at once. "Let's go Bryan. Where are my keys?" She asked staring at him.Bryan rolled his eyes. “Where are we going again?”“I can’t let this slide! No one chooses a low life over me! Mia is bitch that needs to be dealt with!” She screamed at him.Bryan raised his hands up in surrender. "Alright. Let me drive Catty, you are drunk.” Even though he knew cajoling her wasn't going to work but he needed to try."I would drive and you would come with me, is that clear!" She barked, her voice sounding unladylike."Ok." He replied meekly.Catherine drove down the road wobbling all the way. Bryan held on to the car handle like his life depended on it. She parked two houses away from the M&A Pastries and Coffee. Bryan wondered what she was doing there, just th
