41: Teary Eyes

[Briggs Mansion]Julie hummed a tune softly as she applied makeup in front of her mirror after her bath.In an hour, she'd be on the drive to the Departmental Store.Sundays are resting days for everyone, but not Julie.Staying in this house can be suffocating everytime, especially with the fact that Harvey choose certain Sundays to stay home.She hates his presence, and she wouldn't risk taking in the rotten air that comes with his words.So, she finished applying her makeup and entered her closet to search for the dress she'd wear today.While digging through the clothes, her phone made a sound, and she quickly went for it on the table.It's Stella calling. She picked up with a cheerful smile."Hey, incoming inlaw!""You still aren't over this stuff, Mrs. Briggs." Stella laughed."Mrs. Briggs?" Julie frowned."Julie, sorry..." Stella said.Julie's features softened immediately, and she held the phone to her ear with her shoulder before picking a blue dress for herself."I called to

"I love you so much it'd be actually unreasonable to let you go like a fool. Believe me, I was caged..." His tears mixed with the snot below his nose.Both entered his mouth as he talked, painting a crazy view that Tiffany couldn't help but be wide-eyed about."Zachary?" She swallowed again, voice trapped between bewilderment and wordless shock.He instantly reached for her hand, taking it and squeezing it in his own.She wasn't even functioning. All of her stolen attention stayed on his pitifully red face which was crawling with tears and helplessness."I never stopped loving you, Fanny." He sniffled. "It's just that, I...."Her senses snapped back at this point. She wriggled her hands away from his grip, taking a step back."Fanny..." He went close."No!" She pointed an arm forward, blocking another move from him. "Don't...don't touch me..."A sharp hiccup left Zach's mouth, and he indeed stayed still, following her command to not close in anymore.Tiffany's hand went down."I....I

Tiffany looked nervous as she walked through the large rows of the departmental store, looking for something nice to wear to the museum date.It's finally Tuesday, and she should have come for this shopping yesterday, but her classes were so full and too long. After they got done, she went home half-dead to crash in her bed.She didn't open her eyes till the dark hours of the night when she ate and wrote her assignments. Of course Prof Larsen had assignments for them.So all her time was occupied till this morning. Her classes won't start till 11AM today, so she came early to the store to pick something, but now she's regretting. Maybe she should have picked a different store.Cos now she's standing in front of a really beautiful short and chic dress she loves, but the price tag on it is making her brain lag.Not like she doesn't have the money, but she has never been one to spend astronomically on dresses.So...it felt weird.She kept staring at it, contemplating on maybe she shoul

Mandy revealed the huge ice cream bowl once she was inside Landon's office with him. Each took their spoons, and they began eating.While Landon sat on the chair, Mandy sat on the desk, taking the gentle scoops with him while still smiling like a sweet-toothed kid."Something cool happened today?" Landon asked eventually."Something cool always happens, but today was exceptional!" She chirped, dropping her spoon in the ice cream.She plopped herself down on his laps suddenly, causing his own spoon to fall from his hand.It literally slipped and hit the floor before he could tighten his grip."Man....""You see..." She interrupted him. "Today, during our sewing class, the lecturer told us to sew a blouse within an hour. I made the prettiest blouse, and the lecturer went....oh, Mandy, you'll be a world best renowned fashionista one day!"As she talked, there's undying light in her eyes that got brighter and brighter at each word.Landon forgot about the fact that she's on his laps and
