Edward lowered his voice. “No worries. I'll go with you. Your medicine’s still at my place, so we'll need to stop by
there again.”
| blanked out for a moment, only just realizing I'd forgotten my meds.
“Alright, sorry for the hassle,” | said, trying to be polite.
The ride back was quiet, both of us lost in our own thoughts.
When we pulled up to Edward's villa, | couldn't help but notice the two refined, gray-blue buildings joined
together- imposing and elegant.
Edward stepped out of the car and opened the door for me, his voice low. “Why don’t you stay one more night? |

the doctor cby again to check on you.”
| shook my head, feeling like there was a wild animal raging inside its cage. | was scared that once it got loose,
there'd be no holding it back.
While | still had my wits about me, | had to keep my distance.
“No, I'm fine. The medicine will do the trick,” | said, keeping my eyes away from his. His gaze was shadowed,
and honestly, | didn’t want to know what was going on in his head.
“Alright,” Edward said, not pushing it. He went inside, grabbed a bag of medicine, and packed up my clothes in
another bag, putting them both in the car. “I'll have the driver take you. Textwhen you get to your
apartment.”
I nodded and slid back into the car.
| couldn’t care less about the scenery on the way back. All | felt was this emptiness inside, like there was a hole

again.
The next day, right after class, Elaine shota text: “Ms. Murphy, Mr. Holcomb just cover asking for the

As soon as | got to the building, | spotted Yvonne outside a nearby dessert shop. She was wearing an adorable
little dress. and a backpack, crouched down on the sidewalk, giggling as she played with the shop owner's kitten.
“Yvonne...” | called out as | got out of the cab.
“Mommy!” Yvonne squealed, running straight into my arms and huggingtight.
Right then, the door to the dessert shop swung open, and Jared stepped out in casual clothes, looking totally at
ease.
“Mommy, | got two days off from school so Daddy could bringto see you!” Yvonne chirped, clutching my
hand and bouncing with excitement.
| blinked, a little surprised. ‘Wait, so Jared's just here because Yvonne wanted to come?’
Jared's gaze lingered on me. “Why do you look so thin?”
“Daddy, Mommy's always tired from her classes! Why don’t you go study with her instead? Hmph, bad daddy,
from now on you can only be nice to Mommy-no more making her study!” Yvonne crossed her arms and pouted,
scolding Jared like a little grown-up.
Jared didn’t get mad at all. He just crouched down and soothed her, saying, “Alright, | won't make her study
anymore, okay? Don’t be upset, baby.”
“Really? Pinky promise?” Yvonne stuck out her little finger right away.
Jared sighed and hooked his pinky with hers.
Yvonne instantly perked up and jumped for joy. “Mommy, Daddy really promised!”
| watched the two of them, thinking how much more independent Yvonne seemed since the divorce.
“Can we cupstairs and hang out for a bit?” Jared asked.
