“You just don't spring a month-long vacation request on me out of the blue, Ava.” Shawn actually laughed, and there was almost a disbelief in that tone, perhaps near dismissal. He leaned closer towards her and pulled her closer to him by her waist, assuming an expression stern from practicality against indulgence. "You do realize what goes on at the office, if I disappear for a whole month, its going to be utter chaos.”Eva's lips arced into a smile, but it was glass brittle. "You're right, it was silly. I just wasn't thinking." She tried to sound light, but the tension in her chest betrayed her.Shawn paused mid-laugh, his eyes narrowing. "You're not usually like that. What's going on?”“Nothing,” Eva replied too quickly, her hand instinctively brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. “I guess I’ve just been feeling. restless. That’s all.”Shawn’s brow furrowed as he reached across the table, taking her hand gently in his. “Eva, if something’s bothering you, tell me.”The warmth of

"I will not be spoken to like that," Ava finally said, crossing her arms. "I am not the one who married him; she did.""And you're the one who left him at the altar," Richard snapped, whip-like. Eva shuddered as guilt swamped her chest. "Dad, please…"No, Eva," Richard spat, wrenching to give her his furious gaze. "Do not even for one second believe you are in the clear on this. You were lying to Shawn just as much as Ava was, if not more so. The moment you knew your feelings, you should have been honest with him.”"I know," Eva whispered, tears slipping down her face. "I know I should have, but I was scared. Scared of losing him, scared of him hating me. I didn't know what else to do.""You could have opted for honesty," Richard snapped, razor-sharp in his tone. "As it was, you opted to live the lie. And now we have to pay because of it.”Finally, Eleanor spoke, the softness in her voice firm. "We need to figure out a way to move on from this. Blaming each other will not change what

“Doesn't it bother you, Eva?” Ava’s voice cut through the silence of the office as the clock neared the end of the workday. She leaned back in her chair, her tone light but her eyes sharp. “Sitting here, pretending to be something you’re not?”Eva glanced up from her computer, her fingers pausing over the keyboard. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”Ava smiled wryly, playing a pen through her fingers. "Sure, you don't." She drummed the pen on the desk. "By the way, I was thinking about Samantha today. I've not been seeing her around."Eva's face didn't budge, but her hold on the mouse pulled tight. "Samantha?""My best friend, former project manager. You met her here didn't you?" Ava asked nonchalantly, her eyes telling a whole different story altogether.Eva shrugged, forced casual. "Of course, I did. She resigned months ago. Said something about a change."Ava learnt forward, eyes narrowing. "That does not sound like Samantha. She loved it here. Lived practically for it.""Sh

"How is she so shameless?" Ava muttered as she viewed from the second floor window of the company building. Her eyes were fixed in the parking space below, where Eva was standing beside Shawn.He leaned down, pressing a soft kiss against Eva's lips. She laughed, the sound light and warm, and set a hand to his arm as she said something Ava couldn't hear. Shawn laughed at it.Jealousy, like fire, had burned within Ava as her chest felt constricted, her fists clutching into the sill. That was supposed to be her life. She should be experiencing this happiness. If only she hadn't run away on that wedding day, it would be her, he adored now.‘You gave that all up, Ava,’ said the bitter voice within her mind, ‘but that does not mean that you can't take it back.’The thought sat there, all dark and alluring. If they could convince an entire company with their resemblances and they didn't notice the switch of management, why couldn't she do the same thing with Shawn and take what was original

Thin curtain shades allowed morning sun to streak the room in patches of gold. Ava stirred, weighed down by exhaustion, yet her mind was in a marathon leading to the opening of her eyes. And then all the pieces fit together-the way Shawn had touched her, the things he said, the manner in which he had looked at her like she was the only female on this earth.She turned her head slightly, and her gaze fell on Shawn's sleeping form beside her, with his arm possessively flung across her waist. 'It really happened' -the thought slammed her heart against her chest.The phone lying next to the bed slicing through the silence of the room. She carefully reached to get it-not wanting Shawn to wake. The screen blinked through texts and calls-all from Eva and her mom and dad."Ava, call me right this minute!""What the hell are you doing with Shawn?""Do you know what kind of mess you're putting us in?" All from Eva.“Ava please, stop this nonsense and come back home” from her mom. But the latt
