\u201cGary took me to the hospital today. The doctor said the babies are both fine. It\u2019s just that one of them is developing a little slower because the older twin is absorbing more of the nutrients,\u201d Adriana quietly reported the results of her check\u2013up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOnce they\u2019re born, I\u2019m spanking the older one\u2019s butt to stick up for the younger one,\u201d Curtis said, ruffling her hair with indulgent affection.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana wrapped her arms around him. \u201cGary\u2019s been taking really good care of me lately. Should we invite him over for dinner sometime?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She tested the waters carefully.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana didn\u2019t really know what had happened between Curtis and Gary, but even she could tell the relationship between nephew and uncle was strained and complicated.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Several times, Gary had come to pick her up so they could go out, and Curtis hadn\u2019t even shown his face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At first, Adriana thought Curtis just didn\u2019t trust Gary and refuse to let anyone know he was still alive. But\u00a0<\/p>\n
one time, she\u2019d forgotten her check\u2013up report at the hospital, and Curtis had brought it out to her himself -only to stand there in front of Gary without giving him so much as a glance.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Gary was the same; he didn\u2019t look at Curtis at all. The two of them were more distant than strangers.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The moment Adriana mentioned inviting Gary over, Curtis was so startled that the bread slipped from his hands and thumped onto the cutting board. \u201cHave dinner, my ass! Don\u2019t invite him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana studied him. \u201cHoney \u2026 did something happen between you and Gary?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d Curtis dodged her gaze and immediately turned to bolt.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHey, look who\u2019s here!\u201d At the door, Yolanda came in excitedly with Denton in tow.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton had arrived as well, here to finish his degree.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana tensed up and instinctively looked at Curtis, worried he wouldn\u2019t trust Denton and wouldn\u2019t want him to know he was alive.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But Curtis didn\u2019t deliberately hide. Instead, he smiled at Denton. \u201cHungry? Go wash your hands and cat\u00a0<\/p>\n
with us.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Denton sniffled; it was obvious he was moved to see Curtis, but it was just as obvious he\u2019d already known Curtis was alive. \u201cCurtis\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana shot Curtis a suspicious look. \u201cSo, Denton already knew you were alive?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
So, she was the only one who\u2019d had to guess everything on her own?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI left him a coded message,\u201d Curtis muttered in explanation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He\u2019d left one for Adriana, too\u2013sending Kenneth over with a bouquet of white lilies.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana huffed and decided she didn\u2019t want to talk to him anymore. He always chose secrecy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They\u2019d known each other since they were kids, and Curtis still had no intention of telling her the truth.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When she stomped off to the bedroom, cheeks puffed with anger, Curtis hurried after her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDid Adriana and Curtis fight?\u201d Denton asked blankly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMaybe her emotions are just unstable from the pregnancy,\u201d Yolanda replied, eyes fixed on the bread. She snuck a slice of cranberry bread and tossed one to Denton as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the bedroom.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana sat on the bed while Curtis walked over and crouched down, coaxing her gently. \u201cAre you mad at me? I really wasn\u2019t hiding it from you on purpose.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe obviously met when we were kids.\u201d Adriana looked at him. \u201cWhen I almost lost my sight in that fire, we\u2019d already met, hadn\u2019t we? That dessert\u2013ball vendor in Harborton was your butler back at your old home in Govendale, wasn\u2019t he? And that big golden retriever\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before she left, Adriana had made a point of going back to that snack street in Harborton.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She\u2019d seen the uncle at the little cafe, and she\u2019d seen the big golden retriever and the little one in his shop.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis froze for a second. It was obvious he\u2019d realized Adriana had opened his safe.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAdriana \u2026 I didn\u2019t mean to keep it from you. Back then, I left you and ran off to Moweland, and you suffered so much because of it. I figured you must hate me. I was afraid to tell you,\u201d Curtis said quietly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana lowered her head, her eyes turning bright red.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you never tell me and never ask me, how would you know what I really think?\u201d She muttered under her breath.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I found you again, all you had in your heart and eyes was Matthew,\u201d Curtis said, so jealous his voice practically tasted sour.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana froze for a moment and guiltily kept her mouth shut.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Thinking back to the first time she and Curtis had reunited, it was true\u2013at that point in her life, all she\u2019d seen was Matthew.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When she said nothing, Curtis only grew more jealous.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At this point, the tables had turned. He suddenly stood up and trapped her in his arms. \u201cSo, whose fault was it\u2013yours or mine? Even if I\u2019d told you I was the king of the world back then, you wouldn\u2019t have left\u00a0<\/p>\n
with me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cCome on\u2013how are you planning to make it up to me?\u201d Curtis asked shamelessly, completely seizing the upper hand now.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana glared at him. How could his skin be this thick?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve decided I\u2019m inviting Gary over here for dinner and using that to make it up to you properly,\u201d she said through gritted teeth.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis immediately folded, pulling her into his arms. \u201cFine, fine, I\u2019m wrong, it\u2019s all my fault \u2026 Just don\u2019t put me in the same room with him. We\u2019ll definitely end up fighting.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat exactly happened between you and Gary to make things turn out like this? Is it just because, when you were a kid\u2026\u201d Adriana hesitated. \u201cJust because you were forced to kill your own mother?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
