One Way Everyone found out
People stood up as a sign of respect when they saw Martha walking through the building's corridor. They smiled and greeted their boss' wife. However, she ignored all the welcoming faces and kept her eyes straight, not stopping anywhere before she reached her husband's office. Aaron called her out, feeling confused by her unexpected visit. But he was ignored too. Mr Park was surprised. He left his chair to greet her good afternoon. He went to ask her the reason behind her sudden arrival. Martha's peripheral vision noticed Mr Park. However, she did not pay any mind to him. She didn't have time for whatever he was trying to say. She didn't even stop to look at Aaron, there was no way she would spare even a second for Mr Park. She had a big news in her hands. Something that would turn everything upside down. Receiving the news, she had the most believable reaction that anyone would have hearing such information. Eyes as big as saucer pans and mouth hanging wide open. Though she was left
One Way The talk
The Halls of Andrew mansion seemed unusually quiet to Blair. She was used to the silence since the huge place was occupied by only few people. However, something was off the day. The air seemed too tense. Something was wrong. She could sense it. "I'm sorry." Hearing that from Mr Park had left her in a worried state. He had called her over to the mansion as soon as possible. She clutched the wine bottle safely in her palms. She had bought it for their dinner, but sensing the grave atmosphere, she was convinced that the dark red liquid would not see the night. She saw Mr Park standing outside her uncle's study. His hands were clasped together and head was hanging low. There was some sort of trouble, she could guess from his posture. She tried talking to him, but instead of listening to her, he just pointed his thumb towards the study, motioning her to go inside. She obeyed his wishes by leaving him alone in the long corridor. "You heard what Park said. She knew about this but still ch
One Way The aftermath
"What are you doing up so late?" Raiden asked when he saw Stephanie in the kitchen past midnight. She chuckled nervously when she saw him standing in front of her with no shirt on. She turned her head north to avoid him from seeing her flaming face. He frowned at her gesture. "Are you alright? Your face is-" he tried to lean and touch her forehead but she abruptly pushed him away. He felt her hands touch his best chest as he stumbled backwards. 'Wait, bare chest?' He realised what just happened and stepped away. He began to apologize proposely. He had no intention of appearing in front of her like that. He often wondered shirtless at night in his house and he did not expect to see her there at that time. "I couldn't sleep, so I found something to do." She turned around and attempted to chop some strawberries. One thing that she had noticed about him, was that he loved strawberries. She often saw him snacking on them. She wanted to slice them prettily and present to him. It was just
One Way Trouble
"What are you doing!" Jessica exclaimed in annoyance for the nth time, using her back to push away Aaron as her hands were coated with marination which she had prepared for the chicken. He stumbled backwards due to the force. He put both of his hands up in a defensive position. "I am just trying to help you." He fortified himself. She narrowed her eyes at him and pointed at the pan that was clutched in his hand. "Did I say I wanted that?" She raised a brow in questioning manner. He shook his head and put the pan on the counter. "I just thought you might need it, so I prepared myself." He replied with an innocent smile and blinked his lashes. She heaved a deep sigh at his response. She could not even be angry at him because he was just so adorable. He walked closer to her and held her shoulders with head hanging low. "I just don't feel good that you are doing all the hard work and I am of no help." He admitted. She placed her palms on either side of his face and pressed soft peck on
One Way The mysterious man
When Stephanie ran away from her hoise, she didn't have anywhere to go. At that vulnerable moment, an unexpected person appeared as a silver lining to her dark cloud. The man whom she had approached as a Predator, wanting to use him in her game of lies and revenge. However fate had different plans. Raiden Kingston, in her eyes was a bad guy, a villain, her enemy. After all her father would not be in prison if he had not backed up Blair in the case. Since the beginning, it was his fault. He should not have allowed Blair to the open a dead case. He had done the work of adding fuel to the fire. It was astounding, even to Stephanie herself, how Raiden went from being the devil of her story to being her saviour in hard times. She didn't realise when her gratitude towards him turned into admiration and then, to much more. Her initial impression of him had completely disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by the feeling of something that the world referred to as love. She did not even know t
One Way Stephanie!?
"Wan? Wan!" He snapped out of his dreamland after Blair's multiple attemps of trying to catch his attention. "You said you have some information." She urged him to speak further by tapping the back of his hand. He used his tongue to wet his suddenly dry lips. He took a huge gulp, trying to maintain a casual demeanor.When Wan called up Blair to tell her he had a lead, he never intended to reveal everything to her. Not until he had concrete evidence. Though he was hiding it for now, he had to warn her of the possible threat. That's why he had asked her to meet up."The thing is that," he swallowed down the thickness forming inside his throat. "Doing some more searching, I think, your aunt is not the perpetrator. Or atleast, not the only one." He informed.Blair shifted in her position. Without reacting much she just waited for him to speak further. She had an idea of where that conversation was going, but she could not reach any conclusions. Specially, when she was secretly hoping for

Lazing around, watching Spider-Man and striving on junk food.That day, they did the same. Watched Avengers, ordered a huge pizza with loads of cheese and snacked on the tons of sweets that Jessica had given him. It was such an unhealthy day, but every moment was worth it. It was like going back in time and living their childhood once again.Time flied like wind, and in bat of an eye, it was already near midnight. Since it was late, he insisted her to stay for the night. She went to her room to change. While working in the long corridor, her eyes fell on the door at the end of the lane. It was Stephanie's room. Though Jessica was okay with Raiden housing her, it did not mean that she trusted her. It was too early to let their guard down.'Let's have a talk with her.'
