Bryan clicked his tongue as he recalled Elizabeth’s call from yesterday. She tried to use him just to get close to Paul, and be found her antics laughable. He walked to the corner, pulled out his phone, and blocked her number without a second thought

At 5:00 pm, Silas stretched and prepared to call it a day

Paul approached him with his phone. Can you help me choose? Which one’s better?” 

What’s this?Silas leaned in for a closer look and was surprised. He hadn’t expected Paul to be buying flowers.Is it for Miranda?” 

Who else?” 

Silas rubbed his nose awkwardly. True. I think this one’s good, the purple one. She’ll like it.” 

Paul nodded. Yeah, it’s the same one I picked,he said and pocketed his phone before walking away

Silas blinked in confusion

It was the first day of the holiday. Miranda rarely allowed herself to indulge, but she slept in and didn’t wake up until nearly 10:00 am

After a quick breakfast, she went grocery shopping. The rest of the afternoon was spent revising her thesis

Before she knew it, three hours had passed. She closed her laptop and headed straight for the kitchen to make dinner

At 6:30 pm, Paul came home

Miranda was busy cooking. She heard the door open but couldn’t take her eyes off the pan, so she called out, You’re home?” 

About half a minute later, she heard footsteps approaching the kitchen. Just as she finished plating the food and setting the spatula down, she turned and was ready to leap into Paul’s arms… 

Dad? Mom?” 

Lionel smiled and caught his daughter midpounce. Surprised? Didn’t see that coming, huh?” 

Miranda was speechless

Mindy glanced at the stove and couldn’t hide her surprise. You’re eating all four dishes by yourself?” 

Miranda quickly composed herself. She hugged her father and then flashed a smile at her mother. I have to eat well, even if I’m alone.” 

Be honest with me.Mindy’s expression darkened

Miranda’s heart skipped a beat

Mindy continued, Did you know we were coming

Miranda breathed a sigh of relief. Of course! I’m a genius. I made the food and waited for you guys to show up.”

Alright, enough of that,Mindy said, stopping Lionel from racking his brain. Let’s take these foods to the table It smells so good, I’m starving” 

Lionel immediately rolled up his sleeves and set the table

Five minutes later, the couple sat down and picked up their tell 

Mini, sit down. Why are you standing there?” 

UhI left my phone in the bedroom. I’m just going to grab it.Miranda decided to give Paul a headsup before he arrived so that he would be mentally prepared 

But before she could reach her bedroom, the faint click of the door lock turning caught her attention. In the small, quier apartment, even the faint sound of the lock turning was unusually sharp

Lionel and Mindy exchanged a look 

Is someone unlocking the door?he asked 

Just as the words left his mouth, the door swung open 

Before they saw who it was, a familiar voice rang out. Mimi, I’m home.”
