“I don’t know. It just turns up in my pidgeon hole. It’s this glossy thing and the cover story is always Spring Well Graduate Now King of Everything Ever.” Another soft laugh. “In which case, I shall strongly resist being put on the mailing list.” “Oh her God,” Cole wailed. “I’m epically bad at this. I’ve stirred you from apathy to active antipathy. Do you not like Spring Well?” “I haven’t thought about it since I left.” “You don’t have any good memories?” “It’s not that. It’s simply that I prefer to focus my energy on the present.” “And you never look back?” she tried again. “Never miss anybody or feel thankful?”

I smiled secretly and stood beside one of my co-employees. I felt so shy as Zeb stared at me before he said a word. "Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Tonight would be our second to last night together. In two days, we will get back to work and reality. I hope this vacation gave you relaxation and enjoyment. Let's continue doing our job the best that we can; who knows, maybe this vacation will be the company's legacy and it will happen yearly or even twice a year. So tonight we will enjoy everything that has been specially served for us. Eat all you can, drink all you can. Tomorrow is another day and probably our last day of stay. Congratulations, and thank you to each of you! Cheer!!!"

Her bloodshot eyes were filled with hatred as she cursed me. “You killed my son, Vanessa! You’re going to Hell!” I replied evenly, “It wasn’t me.” Somehow, my words pacified her. Her shouting quieted. I turned back to Jared. “See you in court tomorrow.” The distant look in my eyes seemed to pull at his heart. After a moment, he nodded. “Alright.” We flew back to River City overnight to finalize our divorce. As I stared at the certificate, I felt my shoulders relax for the first time in years.

Shawn rolled his eyes and hung up immediately. Jenna laughed. “Scammers nowadays don’t even bother with a good story. Who doesn’t know that Samantha is too sickly to conceive?” Shawn fell silent. He clearly agreed with her without saying a word. I could not help but smile bitterly. He did not know that in order to conceive, I had spent the last two years swallowing a lot of bitter pills for treatment. And it was all gone. Just as he was about to toss his phone aside, another call came in.

Yazmine's fist flew directly to his chest. "Urgh, what was that for?" he asked. "You should be nice to her, she just resumed," Yazmine said, then returned her gaze to Candy. "We have a lot to cover, Candy. We'll be traveling soon. Also, I bet you're preparing for tomorrow." "Tomorrow? What's tomorrow?" Candy asked with a frown. "Wait, Candy? You really have no idea what tomorrow is?" Yazmine inquired. Candy gulped nervously, realizing she had completely lost track of the days – she couldn't even recall today's date. Maybe because of the crazy things happening around her.

Ashley said, “They want us to watch them perform, before giving us a few pointers. And tomorrow we go shopping!” “It’s a good thing tomorrow is Saturday, I am beat!” I said, sounding like I felt -- tired. “Thank you, Estie for doing this,” Ashley said and I waved her off. “We need something fun for a change anyway,” Ameera said. “Are you saying our lives are boring, Doctor Ameera?” I said in theatrical shock. She giggled and rolled her eyes. “Our lives are a boring routine, Doctor Roberts, we are in dire need of an adventure,” she said with a sigh.

Maybe it wasn't a new journey but indeed the redeemable start of their old story. _____________________________________ Next will be updated on Friday. Keep on liking and commenting. Till the next adios

For a fleeting moment, I let myself believe I’m free. But the world has sharp ways of reminding me that freedom never comes without a price. The muted glow of a small television in the corner flickers on, its blue light catching my attention. I didn’t touch it. It must’ve come back on after the power dipped, the way old electronics sometimes do. The sound is low, but the words reach me, slicing through the fragile calm. “…breaking developments from the Wolfe estate. The joint statement between the Wolfe and Lancaster families has confirmed that Yesteday’s highly anticipated union has been postponed due to unforeseen health concerns of the bride, Miss Ivy Lancaster…”

"You're crying over a cat now? Are you really throwing a tantrum over this, saying you wanna go home? Don't forget that you ran away with me. The Xenos family disowned you a long time ago." I looked at the ground and smiled bitterly. I thought to myself, 'So, this is what it's like when someone stops loving you. They even forget everything in the past.' Still, I patiently explained, "I'm severely allergic to cat fur…" Ian frowned but still said coldly, "Sienna Xenos, Mimi is only staying here for a few days. It's only for a short while." He tried to persuade me with a long-winded explanation, but the playful ringtone of his phone cut him off. It was his custom ringtone for Eva.
