Just the screen. Just that number.

No one knew when it could reopen. Benjamin approached, wanting to offer some words of comfort, but nothing came. He, who could speak circles around anyone in business, now stood helpless and mute in front of her. Before he could speak, Nissa lifted her phone. Her eyes were dull, expression gray. On the screen was a single sentence. "Did you do this?" Benjamin froze. She suspected him? He could not believe it. A wave of cold ran through his chest, his heart gripped by grief, anger, and emptiness.

Because silence is never empty. Silence is surrender in disguise. And with the candlelight flickering between us, her pulse thrumming in the stillness, I knew— The game was no longer if she would break. The game was when.

The candlelight flickered and danced, illuminating the walls like a living shadow, as the silence of the night descended upon the room. All of us eyes were now fixated on the soft rectangular velvet card within our hands, which held the secrets of the game.

As they deliberated on strategies and the ongoing collaboration with the Red Moon Pack, a sudden interruption pierced the calm. The shrill ring of Silas's phone echoed in the room, a jarring contrast to the atmosphere of focused contemplation. His hand swiftly reached for the device, its glow casting an eerie illumination on his features. The caller ID revealed Jack's name, a signal that urgent tidings awaited on the other end of the line. Silas's demeanor shifted, the gravity of the situation settling in. With a

"There is one more game and that is 'What is in the bride's cell phone?' In this game, they will just ask me to show anything on my cell phone and I cannot deny it. What?????? They made me sit on the chair and took the USB cord and connected my cell phone with the TV. Now everything could be seen on the screen of TV. For this game as well they had some chits. Oh God!!!

The Konstantino family had owned it for years, though these days they tend to rent it out from time to time. I didn’t want to show it too much, but I was really excited about this trip. A whole weekend. Just the three of us? Yes, please. “Music?” I asked, reaching for the stereo. “Please, yes,” Kyler said from MY space in the front. “Silas has had us in silence for the past fifteen minutes like we’re driving to a funeral.” “Nothing bad with silence.” Silas defended. I scrolled through Sila’s carefully curated playlists and picked one randomly. It was soft instrumental and jazzy.
