At first, I thought that the way my heart raced fast and the way that I found it slightly difficult to breathe whenever he was in sight was merely a coincidence or that I was feeling slightly unwell. However, I soon figured out that it was probably because I had realized the nature of the true feelings that I harbored for him."Excuse me. There's someone here to see you," Jenna said as she waved her hand in front of my face. I almost jumped out of my seat when I realized that she was standing so close to me. Before I realized what I was doing, I had already reached out for my phone and hid it away from her as if I had a secret that I needed to keep to myself."Is something the matter?" Jenna asked with a concerned look on her face."Oh, nothing. Bradon is…coming home for dinner," I mumbled."Did he tell you that? That's great, I'll make sure the chef cooks something special," Jenna said with a pleased smile. The way that she looked at me with that bright smile of hers and that knowing

I couldn't bring myself to respond to her, so Diana took charge in speculating about my feelings. Ironically, I thought that perhaps Diana had put into words my feelings better than I ever could. Seeing that I did not have anything to say in my own defense, Diana's lips curved into a knowing smile before she continued."You're in love with him, Leya. That's why it felt so unbearable for you and that's why you got jealous. I mean, you practically ran out of the room because you couldn't take it anymore," Diana stated her observation confidently. Had I not already realized my feelings towards Bradon at that point, I might have had the urge to say a couple of things in my own defense and say that there was no way I could possibly be in love with him."Is that why you did it? To somehow force me to realize my true feelings?" I asked softly. At that moment, I felt very calm inside, and my head felt surprisingly clear. If I had harbored any hard feelings against my sister, it felt like they

"How is that possible? That's ridiculous," Diana mumbled, looking quite shocked."I know exactly how you feel. I was very stunned and shocked when he first told me as well. Honestly, I didn't believe it at first, but when I thought about it, I realized that he must be telling the truth. Even now, I still find it very hard to believe," I confessed truthfully."If what you're saying is true, then does that mean that the Anthony we met sometime in the past could have been Bradon?" Diana asked, tilting her head slightly to the side as if playing with the idea."Yes, I think that's what happened, although I have no idea when Bradon was actually taking Anthony’s place," I replied with an uneasy feeling inside. I suddenly felt an uncomfortable stirring sensation in the pit of my stomach and realized that I had started feeling extremely anxious. Diana kept on staring at me without saying a word as if she was thinking of something, and that made me feel even more unsettled than before."This i

Thinking about the past and realizing how much had changed between us made me chuckle softly at the thought."What's so funny?" Bradon asked in a low whisper before placing a tender kiss on my cheek."Nothing. I was just thinking a little about the past," I replied before flashing him a smile.Bradon didn't say anything, but there was a slight tension between us. He must have realized that we could no longer avoid the conversation forever. We had spent more than enough time tiptoeing around the subject without approaching it directly."My sister came to visit. She mentioned that she managed to get your permission," I told Bradon the moment we took our seats at the dining table."Really? I guess that's a good thing," Bradon replied passively as he began eating.I ate as well, although food was the last thing on my mind at that moment. While we both ate in silence, I couldn't help but steal glances in Bradon's direction as I wondered what he was thinking. I had expected that he would as

"Why does it matter? That was so long ago," Bradon replied dismissively, as if he didn't want to talk about this topic any longer. Despite what he wanted, I wasn't inclined to let it go, because I could clearly imagine the consequences of his actions. I stared at him intensely while feeling a stinging sensation at the back of my eyes that made me realize that I was on the verge of tears. It was probably because I could relate to his situation, imagining the punishment and the price he had to pay to cover for me. If on that day, the one who had covered for me was truly Anthony, then I was sure he would have gotten off with little to no punishment at all. However, things must have been very different for Bradon."Why did you do something like that? You knew that you would be punished in my place. There was no way they would let you go without any punishment," I said as my voice cracked under the strain of my emotions."I did it so you wouldn't get punished and so that no more conflict
