“I know as I am fully aware of that.” Sam stated and more than aware of what type of gambling he is playing right now. A risk that took him years to take and now is facing. A gamble that can either make or break everything apart. “Should I cancel all your appointments for today?” As Brian suddenly offers and does not ask. Knowing that after what Lindsey sent him and what he just watched. And even though he didn’t tell anything to him nor show anything, his reaction and tone are enough for him to figure everything out. “A day wouldn’t kill anyone.” He rhetorically added, emphasizing the fact that he had the choice to pursue his perfect plan or let it all be in the hands of destiny. By which is a cliché thing to even think about. “You’re right.” Immediately heading out of his office as Brian noted everything and canceled all his appointments for today. He called Sam’s driver as he is left inside the office to take care of things on his behalf. “Wait.” Suddenly stopping in
ARRIVING at the twin’s academy, the two immediately went out of the car as their driver opens the passenger’s door open. “Here we go.” Cath smiles all wide as she looks at the Academy that is bringing her the sweet memories of her childhood. As nostalgia reminds her of her past, her eyes are caught by the familiar oak tree beside the Academy’s entrance gate. The oldest tree that she remembers made her think of the certain past where she first meets Sam. The bitter-sweet memory that she couldn’t deny is making her smile right now. “There are some things that didn’t change.” She whispers to herself and pertains about the tree. That despite the big change in everything around her after being absent and gone for years. The same old oak tree is still standing tall and proud as she remembers it. “Cath, what are you looking at?” Taking her attention by Monique’s call and question, she is now back into reality after reminiscing for a bit. Smiling at the twins, she crouches down as she
“I hate them, I do not want to see them at all.” Cath yells while stumping her feet with her reddened face, as her anger bursts upon knowing the plan of divorce that her parents are talking about behind her back. “Relax, it’s not the end of the world if your parents' divorce.” As Sam tries to console her while holding her favorite stuffed bunny Mr. Skittles. But with his innocence and Cath’s anger. He instead receives a hard push after taking her stuffed bunny from him as he took it forcedly from her. “You don’t understand anything so you better just shut your mouth!” She almost curses in her anger, while Sam on the ground but first and hard, is keeping his cool. All as he is trying to be the good boy and a friend to his little crybaby Cath. “But screaming and nagging will not help you in any way possible in this situation.” He started, acting like he is a mature one, an adult in the scene that in reality, they are just a pair of young kids who happens to be smart and a fast
LOOKING at the art materials in front of him. Cole doesn’t want to even pick a single crayon to start his art. “Everyone, for today’s art, I want you all to draw what inspires you to wake up every day. Who and what makes you smile and stay positive, understand?” Their teacher explains, all along as he is showing her whole class some examples of simple things that the previous year draws for the same topic that they are discussing today. With depth and color pallet as their main lesson, the children all agrees as they all excitedly took out their art materials and started doing their art. “Cole, don’t you want to draw something?” As Cole’s closest friend Win asks him when he notices him only staring at the blank paper in front of him. But as quiet as the past few weeks, Cole only glanced at his friend, took a deep sigh, and looks back at the white paper and stares at it. Just then. “Found it!” Suddenly approaching and stealing their attention. The spoiled brat and acting lit
MORE than being just surprised. Cath’s heart is now beating crazy. So wild that she almost could breathe from the sudden gesture and save that low and behold, Sam came to her aid. “I warn you, dare to lay even a single finger of her and I’ll make your world a living hell.” Sternly saying the words with his threatening gaze, but at the same time captivating. “Daddy!” Monique cheers with Cole now smiling as they both are surprised for a moment. Where they didn’t expect Sam to come to their school and a first for years and worse since their mother left them. Nonetheless, they are happy now that Sam is here for their aid. “Mr. Lawrence?” Mrs. Brown asks in a disbelief tone as she then looks at Cath who is in a deep state of surprise. Looking at Sam with the eyes that are written with the words she is shaken. With the knocking sense of her reality that Sam still has that deep impression that is reviving the feelings that she thought she already buried and gone from deep inside her
FRANTICALLY rummaging her closet for the perfect clothes to wear. Cath is half-mindedly fighting over herself for doing such things right now. Contradicts her initial plan and in the situation where she is like a teen who will about to go on her first date. “No, no, no.” She protested, walking back and forth as she is contemplating what to wear from the limited clothes that she bought. Where almost of it are all her business attires and not one single clothe is suited for the night. Worse with the fact at hand that she shouldn’t be stressing out about something unnecessary. For she is just going with Sam’s family for a dinner date, minus the date. “It’s just a friendly dinner, that’s all. You do not need to think about it or be anxious like this Catherine.” As she convinces herself, patching the reality and the facts that she should be prioritizing right now. Yet, her mind and a part of it that is stupidly telling her otherwise are turning her sense of reality upside down. “Rem
HIS head is high, yet anyone can tell that he is in his deep thoughts at the moment. That even though he is staring at the lights of the city on the highest floor of his company building. He is taken deep into his thoughts that Brian can tell what. “Ehem!” He made his presence known that for a while now is standing on the side which he didn’t notice coming after knocking at his door three times. “You’re here.” He then casually recognizes his secretary’s presence, as he quickly brought his mind back to reality after drifting quite far away. “Do you have something to say that I should work on immediately?” Knowing him and quite deep, Brian didn’t need any words from him to be able to know what he wanted and was thinking. Something like he is an open book to him, Brian in the meanwhile is his honest friend and companion that he could trust in everything. Even with his current dilemma that falls into the category of the person who got away. “She is doing well and having the
HAVING a lovely evening and so far, the twins are having the best time of their lives while Cath’s attention is on the twins, who are now regarding her as their mother-to-be. Lindsey could help, but tease her brother and somehow try, no, she is making him realize how stupid he is from the past and that he shouldn’t let Cath slip anymore from his hands. “It will be perfect and too good if Cath will be the mother of the twins.” Directly stating her thoughts, where she is not used to beating around the bush. That titled her from the past as the queen to whom no one could ever mess around aside from being the younger sister of the most famous student in the university. “Don’t you agree, Sam?” Speechless for a moment as he then glances back to Cath who is more than willing to feed the twins that those twins are all happy about. Thoughts started to flood his mind, as he knew that his sister is right. If he wanted to change everything and mend the broken relationship from the past, he
