I received my music app's annual report again. This time, the keyword was 'Solo.' [This year, your listening time has greatly increased. You no longer need to cater to anyone else's taste. Every song is a song you sing for yourself.] I smiled and shared it on my social media. My best friend liked it instantly.

I brought out my phone to book a ride, but half way through the process, the signal disappeared completely. "Fuck no!" I cursed underneath my breath, trying the same process again, and then it just occurred to me that I could have booked the ride in Rowland's house even before leaving, but my emotions got ahead of me. And now, I had a far walk from his house, going back was another journey I couldn't take. I walked alone, my eyes fixed on my phone as I desperately searched for a signal. The isolation of my surroundings made me feel vulnerable, and a shiver ran down my spine as I hugged myself tighter.

Lindsey said and quickly gulped down all five shots all at once. "Hope there isn't any problem?" Lindsey turned towards the voice and meet a dark muscular man standing in front of her. He had a moustache which Lindsey thought was cute and his perfume was very strong and had a nice fragrance "Why? can't a lady drink anymore?" Lindsey asked staring at him. Williams' lips twitched in a smile as he walked towards the empty seat close to her. He sat down before turning to answer her question "I never said so, just that it's not every day you see a pretty damsel sitting at a bat counter alone and taking five shots of tequila all at once, I almost thought you were in a drinking competition" William

Every day I went a different way to school, the coffee shop where I worked, even home so no one would know my routine. I even signed up to do virtual yoga in the mornings plus on days where I have off from work and school I go out and see what Phoenix has to offer. I have fallen in love with their Arts and Culture especially their culture with their Mexican and Native American influences. And the landscape here is so beautiful with the mountains and deserts it’s so breathtaking. I try to go hiking every weekend of course I have my entourage following close behind for my safety until Noah is caught. But I don’t think I’ll ever be safe knowing that I helped put the Reza sons in federal prison.

He shook his head weakly, snowflakes and blood clinging to him, a complete mess. Just like that, I dragged him into my small apartment. The apartment was small, but it mostly kept the wind and rain out. It’s just that the heating was always pretty weak in winter, and cold drafts snuck in through the window cracks. That whole freezing winter, we clung to each other under a thick blanket, just to keep from freezing to death. And that’s how we fell in love. On the edge of the sprawling city, we became each other’s only warmth.

Barefoot, Anthony wandered the streets, the sharp stones biting into his feet. He thought of the day Jessica fell, the gravel slicing her hand. The pain she must have felt! Then, at a coffee shop on the corner, he saw a silhouette through the window. Wearing a light blue dress that screamed Jessica, Anthony burst into the coffee shop and swept the girl into a desperate embrace. "Jess, you've got to hear me out," he pleaded, his voice shaking. "The whole marriage certificate thing—it's all a big mix-up. You're the one I want as my wife, always have been."

Kimberly smiled as she reminisced, speaking leisurely. "That boy started pursuing me when he was seven. It's been almost 20 years now. When he was around ten, he gave me his family's heirloom, something that's only supposed to go to the family's daughter-in-law. He said he'd only ever love me in this lifetime. "Every time he found out I was dating someone, he'd drink himself into a stupor for days on end. He even developed stomach problems from it. "Oh, and these past few years while I was studying abroad, he flew over every week to bring me my favorite pastries and snacks, keeping me company no matter the cost."

He was very still. She has been trying to get this land for thirty years, Sloane said. She used the cartel when it was convenient. She used Doyle when it was convenient. She used her own son's firm when it was convenient. And the one thing that has stood in the way, every time, for thirty years, has been this club. And your father, Colt said quietly. And my father. She stood up. She walked to the window. The Denver morning was grey and cold and ordinary in the way that mornings were ordinary even when extraordinary things were happening inside them.

Back in my run-down apartment complex, thinking about everything that had happened recently felt almost unreal. I had stayed with the Cooper family for over a month and had grown used to that soft, luxurious bed. Now that I was back here, I could not sleep at all. I tossed and turned deep into the night. Then suddenly, I spotted a shadowy figure sneaking toward me. I shot out of bed and ran for the door, but the moment he noticed, he grabbed me by the collar and slammed me onto the ground. Pain exploded through my body. I could not even get back up.

Adrian Hale laughed, actual laughter, and she'd heard him laugh before but not like that, not in her kitchen with her mother telling stories. She thought: I didn't know this was possible. She thought: I built the wrong thing for five years. At the door, on his way out, he stopped. He turned, the same way he always did with the one more thing, and she stood ready for it. "The book," he said. "One Hundred Years of Solitude, with the coffee ring. I left it in your bag on purpose." She looked at him. "Page 212," he said. "You'll find the margin note."
