Sofia looks at Arian, his face seems deep in thought. “What are you thinking about?â€
“I want to give Noah a gift.†He said, looking at her.
“You’re always giving him something, is he bullying you?†she said, annoyed.
“No, I like giving Noah things. He is my friend.â€
“You have other friends, you don’t give them things. Tsk, it’s expected after all.â€
“They aren’t my friends, Noah is my only friend,†Noah said he doesn’t consider his mother’s friends’ kids his friends.
“Ariannae stop it, you don’t try to get along with others,†she said, sighing…
“Because I don’t like it.â€
She feels tired, she doesn’t know at this point. “You’re brother, his award ceremony is coming up.â€
Arian smiles, “of course, what will you get him?†he asks.
She thinks then grits her teeth, “I don’t know, a novel.â€
“He doesn’t like novels, he wants a car, but he’d like to do driving lessons… from you.â€
She thinks, “Isn’t he too young he is like 14… I won’t raise a delinquent.â€
“He is 16, and he just wants a date with you and Josh… only.â€
She opens the door, “That’s selfish, I’ll buy him a new laptop and gaming console.â€
“He doesn’t play games.â€
“Ariannae you talk too much,â€
Arian sighed, looking at his mom, her eyes were on her phone soon she grits her teeth squeezing her phone. Arian shakes his head, he sees the pictures on the phone sighing wondering when they will divorce.
Noah is packing his bag, he is thinking deeply he really doesn’t want to go on this trip but ultimately he has to go to keep the peace. It Seems no matter how cold he is that Scum gong Just won’t leave!
Sihan smiles looking at his son, “Your birthday is coming up, what would you like?†Sihan asks with a smile.
“hm, I’d like a new pair of kickers, the old ones are worn out.†He admits.
“Your dad already has two prepared, something else in mind.†He said, “There must be something you want?â€
Noah sighs, he doesn’t know, he already gets everything, even things he doesn’t want. From his dad, the Scum gong even his mother not to mention Naenae there is nothing he can think about.
“making the Scum gong leave forever?â€
“Noah, Mr. Laurier isn’t all that bad… he cares for you.â€
“but I don’t care for him!â€
Sihan sighs, “How I wish I could grant your wish, but life is too complicated for that.â€
Noah says nothing, he looks at His wristwatch, Arian didn’t call him tonight. “Never mind then!†He said.
Sihan smiles, “It’s late, you have a trip early tomorrow, no late night whispering with Ari.â€
“Tell that to him not me,â€
“That’s an order,†Sihan chuckles.
Noah smiles, he is happy that his dad is happy life Is a little relaxing now.

Noah looks at him, “Isn’t This a father-children trip?â€
“Doesn’t matter, you’re our family too.†He smiles.
Noah bit his lips like such innocent kids, such A son of a bitch father, Nathaniel smiles happily It’s just his kids and them.
After a long drive, they finally reached a large hotel where they collected The luggage and delivered it to their rooms.
“Noah, don’t wander off if You’re feeling curious okay? I need to know where you are at all times.†He smiles gently.
Noah sighs looking away, “I know,â€
Nathaniel ruffles his hair, Noah has never shown him a bit of warmth but that’s Okay. He is still only A child and his child at that.
Noah looked around, it was luxurious and spacious, nothing like what he had seen before, it’s also quiet… very quiet.
“Let’s go! I’ll show you around.â€
Before Noelle Could grab him and run off Nathaniel held his shoulder. “Noelle, rules.â€
“Um right! Come with us, papa!â€

Amani Takes the knife from him cutting a slice for himself, “What’s on your mind?â€
“Well, hmm, What’s for Noah’s upcoming birthday?â€
Amani sighs, “Honestly, I wasn’t planning on giving a gift. I’d just happily celebrate his birthday at this point until he sounds interested in something.†Amani said.
“That’s unlike you,†Sihan said.
Amani smiles, “I know but think it’s okay this once. I want to sincerely give a gift but nothing befits at the moment so all left is the celebration of his birth.â€
Sihan understands, though it’s not Every year he needs to get a gift. But Sihan will give him anyway.

“You did it again!â€
“Why did you come!â€
“I knew it you weren’t on no business you were with one of your hoes!â€
“I was working and so what if I sneak a little time for pleasure!†Josh yells back.
“You didn’t sneak time to spend with your children!†She yells.
“I sneak plenty of time to spend with them!†He yells.
“You won’t stop, you never stop!†She yells falling to the sofa. “Am I not good enough? You are so unfaithful!â€
Josh is silent, he looks at her sad. “I can’t help it… it’s just in my Nature… you knew that when you married me.â€
“But you could at Least Try to resist… you just keep hurting me… hurting us! Don’t you think of our children!â€
“I–†Josh stops closing his mouth…
He could only look at her as she cried, “I’m sorry.â€
But she knew he was only saying it now, he was only sorry now cause as soon as he walked out that door he would do it again and she’ll always forgive him… because she loves him.
