The wind howled and the cold rain fell heavily, casting a shimmering light across the city. A knock echoed through the air, prompting a woman to emerge from her room clad in her nightwear to answer the door. As she opened it, she was greeted by a familiar figure, and with a weary sigh, she rolled her eyes."What are you doing here? Didn't I make it clear that you shouldn't come back?" she said, just as thunder rumbled in the distance."I’m only here to ask you one question," the familiar voice replied."What is it?""Look into my eyes and tell me you don't love me," the voice implored, causing her to exhale deeply."How many times do I have to say it? I don’t love you!""I don’t believe that. Look me deep in the eyes and tell me you don’t have feelings for me."She sighed and lifted her gaze to meet his. The light sparkled, igniting the depth of their connection. They were drawn to one another, unable to look away, their hearts beating in perfect harmony.★★ Years earlier...In a ci

Years passed, and the bond of friendship flourished with remarkable speed. Mirabel welcomed her third child, a little boy to join her two siblings, and their household brimmed with happiness and affection. Susan, steadfast in her devotion, made it a point to check in on them daily. Meanwhile, she had managed to stabilize her father’s business, successfully handing it over to her brother after their uncle’s passing.Jimmy had matured into a striking young man, his physique muscular and his stature six inches taller. His deep blue eyes sparkled with intelligence, and his curly hair fell softly over his forehead like a playful cap. Handsome yet humble, he commanded the admiration of those around him, drawing friends eager to bask in his presence. Despite the expectations that his good looks would lead him down the path of a notorious Casanova, he remained steadfastly devoted to one woman. After some gentle persuasion from his friends, he found himself in a budding romance with Taylo

Susan arrived to visit Mirabel, and they settled by the pool, engaging in light conversation while sipping their wine."I’ve devised a plan to have a child," Susan announced."What? Are you seeing someone to settle down with?" Mirabel inquired."No, as I’ve told you, I’m done with relationships. What I mean is to get pregnant through surrogacy," Susan replied, her tone revealing her determination, much to Mirabel's astonishment."Surrogacy? Why choose that route?" Mirabel asked."It’s the only way I can have a baby without relying on a man. I have enough money to care for my child; all I need to do is visit the family doctor to obtain a male sperm, and then it’s done," she explained."Susan, this isn’t the life I envision for you. I want you to marry and create a happy family, one that’s better than mine," Mirabel urged."But it hasn’t worked for me. I’ve given my heart too many times, only to see it shattered repeatedly. I don’t believe a happy family is my fate. Look at me, Mira;

The festival continued to flourish, enveloping all in a whirlwind of entertainment. Jimmy and Susan reveled in the joyous atmosphere as they rode horses, swung through the air, and braved the roller coaster together, savoring each fleeting moment. They explored various amusement centers, capturing memories in photographs and competing in games, ultimately emerging victorious. Posing as a couple for some of the contests, their laughter filled the air as they indulged in freshly grilled barbecue, sipping drinks before heading to another game center where the challenge was to pop balloons in exchange for a toy.“Let’s give this a shot,” Jimmy said, purchasing a handful of tiny arrows from a vendor, eager to hit his mark.He launched the first arrow, successfully bursting a balloon. Susan clapped in delight, her cheers urging him on. He threw another, striking another target.“Oh my, you’re quite skilled at this! Let me have a turn,” she exclaimed, taking a few arrows from him. Her first

The atmosphere of the party remained vibrant, the cake sliced and shared among all, the dance floor beckoning. John and Rachel took the lead, twirling to the music as cheers erupted from the crowd. Soon, Mirabel and Greg joined in, followed by Jimmy and the rest of the family, with Susan being pulled into the fray by Jimmy, much to Taylor's chagrin, her fists clenching in silent fury at their apparent closeness.Taylor had observed the shift ever since Susan arrived; Jimmy's attention had drifted away from her, his gaze fixated on Susan. A nagging feeling grew within her, an unsettling sense that something was amiss in their bond. Unable to bear the sight of Jimmy dancing joyfully with Susan any longer, she surged onto the dance floor, shoving Susan aside and catching Jimmy off guard. In a bold move, she grasped his neck and pressed her lips to his.Gasps of surprise filled the air, amusement flickering across faces, including Susan's, who smiled at the unfolding drama.
