DOMINIC'S POVI parked at the same spot as yesterday, waiting for Saraya to come outside.She was all I could think about last night. Her face, her energy, the way she ignored me continued to taunt me and I couldn’t shake it off. I woke up early, determined to see her again. Maybe it was a little creepy to follow her like this, but I don't care.I leaned against my car, watching her front door, my heart racing when she suddenly appeared.She looked simple but stunning, wearing a black hoodie and gray joggers, her hair pulled back in a loose ponytail. She didn’t try to stand out, but somehow, she did.I stayed a safe distance behind her as she jogged through the neighborhood. She ran like she was preparing for the Olympics. Her speed was tenacious.Running after her was exhausting as hell as I gave up twenty minutes into the sprint but she went another forty minutes before stopping to catch her breath.When she finally slowed down and stopped by a bench to catch her breath, I knew it w

ISLA'S POV."What do you think you're doing?" I screamed at Saraya.Saraya stared at me and sighed. "Grandma, can you please not do this tonight?" She pleaded. "I'm exhausted as it is.""Then you should gotten your acts together instead of ruining your date your Toby." I snapped."Trust me when I say I did the right thing walking out on him." Saraya replied defiantly. "I'm already mad at myself for tolerating his respect in the first place when I should walked out earlier.""Of course, not only did you walk out of him. You got your friend to threaten him as well." I clapped my hands. "Good job, Saraya."Saraya blinked her eyes severally. "Toby told you my friend threatened him?" She asked in an unbelievable tone."You heard me right.""Toby is lying, Dominic wasn't even with us in the restaurant and even if by some sheer of coincidence he was, he wouldn't have done that." Saraya replied. "So you're saying Toby lied when you actually showed up with some sort of stranger.""That strang

SARAYA'S POV.The loud buzz of my alarm jolted me awake. I fumbled for my phone and hit the stop button, squinting at the screen. Then it hit me—I’d promised to call Mary.I sat up, dialed her number, and waited. It rang twice before someone picked up.“Hello?” Dad’s voice came through.“Dad? Why are you answering Mary’s phone?” I asked, confused.There was a pause. “Saraya… Mary’s father passed away early this morning.”My stomach dropped. “Oh no. What happened?”“He was sick for a while. It happened suddenly,” Dad explained, his voice heavy. “She cried for hours. I just managed to get her to sleep.”I covered my mouth, trying to process the news. “I’m so sorry, Dad. Please tell her I’m thinking of her when she wakes up.”“I will,” he said.“Have they made any arrangements yet?”“Yes,” Dad replied. “The funeral is on Friday.”“Okay,” I said quickly. “I’ll be there Thursday night. Evan’s coming with me.”“That’ll mean a lot to her,” Dad said quietly.“Thanks for letting me know, Dad.”

SARAYA'S POV.I entered the first class cabinet with Evan, when my eyes settled on someone familiar.My heart raced at the thought of boarding the same flight and the same class with him. I was finding it hard to believe my eyes.I wanted to ignore him but I decided against recalling how he had helped me the last time.I turned to Evan, "go have your seat, I want to talk to someone."Evan nodded his head and went to have his seat. I walked towards Dominic and stood few inches away from him. “Is this another coincidence, or you've made up your mind to be following me now?” I asked, raising an eyebrow as he locked eyes with me.Dominic flashed that charming smile of his, eyes twinkling. “Believe it or not, this is exactly why you should start believing in fate,” he said, pointing to a seat right behind me.I took my seat but couldn’t help but laugh softly. "Fate, huh? And what are the chances we keep running into each other like this?""Saraya, chill. We don’t even have each other’s con

MARY'S POV.We've had dinner and was just having random talks in the living room but my mind was far away from the discussion.Alex, Saraya and Evan's giggles and small laugh jolts out of my reverie time to time but I couldn't stop the many thoughts in my head.I saw Evan rubbing his eyes and that was my cue to take him to his room. "Stop rubbing your eyes, it's bad for your sight." I chastised.Alex stood up on his feet. "Go easy on him, you know it's been a long day for him. I think it's time to get some sleep, I'll take him to bed."I interrupted. "No, I'll do it." I insisted. "At least, let me do one thing to keep myself busy. You've been doing all the runnings all day. Take a break."I walked up to Evan and helped him on his feet, while taking him upstairs, I took a glance at the father and daughter who clinked their glasses and continued their discussion amidst giggles. Anger surged through me.I helped Evan to his room and once we were in, I locked the door behind me. I tossed
