It was pretty quiet in Sean's office once Harvey arrived on the floor from Sean's company. He was familiar with the atmosphere here because he had been in Sean's place for quite a while. Usually this floor is quite crowded with staff talking to talk about their work. But this time it was so quiet and all of the staff's faces were pale. They even just focus on their laptop screen and there is only the sound of their fingers typing on their keyboard. They weren't even aware that Harvey was walking past their cubicle until Bertha greeted him."Hello, Sir Harvey." Secretary Sean greeted Harvey politely."Hello, Bertha. What's with the atmosphere here?” Harvey couldn't hide his curiosity because things were so awkward here.“Oh, were we being too clear?” asked Bertha with a faint smile. She scratched her unhinged hair because she didn't know whether to tell Harvey the truth or not. After all, Harvey is Sean's older brother."What really happe

"WHAT?!"Sean did not expect the answer he heard. Darla is a next door neighbor. Darla is Noah's older sister! How could this be a coincidence?!“Are you really ignorant of that fact? I mean your house and him are next door," Harvey asked in disbelief.“Do you think I would react this way if I knew that fact? I didn't even know at this second!” Sean pulled his hair wildly. One of the reasons he made the affidavit was so that his chances of meeting Darla were slim, but it turns out that Darla lives next door?Harvey took a deep breath, then he thought. “Okay, you can say don't know Darla, but how did you end up having sex with her? How did you two meet?”"I really don't know her." Sean emphasized the sentence in frustration. “And . . . and I already said that I don't remember at all. You know how bad I am when I've been exposed to alcohol."Sean is not completely lying. He didn't remember how he ended up ha

On Monday morning Darla was dressed more neatly than usual. She wore a blazer and black pants. Her hair looks neat because she had time to brush her hair, besides that she also wears light makeup. As a final touch, Darla wore white high heels.It's perfect!"Excuse me," Darla said as she knocked on the door marked the headmaster's room. Since there was no answer, she knocked on the door again. She saw the state of this elementary school which seemed deserted. As far as Darla knows, the students are currently on holiday and next month the new school year will start. So this was the reason Darla was already at an elementary school in one of the central London districts this morning. "Are all the teachers off too?"Her watch shows 9 am while at 11 she has to go to campus because there is class. Right after that a teacher came out from a different room."Hello. Is there anything I can help you with?” asked a female teacher."Hello. I want to regi

Darla returns home after enrolling Noah in school and taking classes at her campus. In her hand was a plastic bag containing two buritos for her and Noah. In addition there is one more plastic containing a book for basic tests for elementary schools. The day after tomorrow, Darla has to take Noah there to be tested. It's not that she doesn't believe in Noah's abilities, but she just wants Noah to not be nervous once the teacher gives her little brother a test."Noah, what are you doing? Come on, get out of your room so we can eat together," Darla said as she put all the plastic on the dining table. She took two plates and he put a burito each on it.Noah's door opened and he walked over to his older sister who was tying her hair and sitting on the dining chair. “I just ate, Darla. I'm still full," Noah replied.Darla glanced at the sink and she found a plate that was still wet. "Did you warm up the food last night?"Noah sat in the chair across from

Harriet was sitting on the bed as soon as Harvey came into the room. Her lips were pouting and her tears now seemed to have dried on her chubby cheeks. Harvey crouched down in front of his niece, then he wiped away the remaining tears.“What is Harriet doing here? Grandma's been waiting outside," said Harvey as he sat down beside Harriet now."I'm pissed at Daddy," said Harriet with a frown on her face."What did Daddy say?" Harvey pretended not to know so much that Harriet could vent her frustration.“Daddy snapped at me and told me not to be friends with Noah anymore. Daddy's changed, Uncle Harvey," she said.Harriet's hands were now in front of her chest and she kept nagging. It made Harvey feel anxious to pinch his niece's chubby cheeks. But Harvey had to endure it because Harriet was still upset. If Harvey did that it was likely that Harriet would be mad at him too."I have no friends and Noah is the only friend I have. And
