Covering the bloody scratches on his face, he hurried to ctothe moment he sawat the police office.
“Grace, please hearout! It wasn’t what it looked like!
“We were just playing truth or dare. It was a punishment! Everybody was participating in it. That waitress only
filmed it because she got us wrong.”
Vivian seemed to be apologizing, yet | could tell how contented she was from her eyes.
“I'm sorry, Grace. We grew up together. I'm used to getting along with them like this. Don’t worry about it.
There’s nothing going on between Antoand me.”
Before | could say anything, the waitress staggered out of the police office and spat at Vivian.
“You bitch!”

Antocould tell that something went wrong with me. He thus stood up to settle the situation.
When | pulled open the door on the passenger's side, a kid was sitting in the seat. He made a funny face when
he saw me.
“Wicked woman! You bitch!”
| heard nothing but vicious intention in his childish voice.
“Oh, Chris! How could you say that?”
Vivian turned to Antonio, only to find him silent with hands on his face. She then added, “I don’t know where he
learned that from. Grace, please don’t take it personally.

“It’s just he likes Antonio. He even wanted Antoto be with him last the got a fever.
“I'm sure Antowill beca good father!”
| didn’t break down as she had expected. Instead, | simply nodded and said, “I think you’re right!”
Antonio’s face turned even more deadpan. He thought for a while before he said, “Since then, why don’t you
drive? Chris will join us in the back seats.”
He was trying to irritate me. He wanted to seejealous.
Yet when | saw the three of them standing together, | didn’t feel annoyed at all.

quite proud.
The three of them sat in the back seats with Chris sitting in between. They looked like a family of three.
Antoremained silent all the way, frowning.

To light up the atmosphere, Vivian took the initiative to say, “Grace, | heard from Victor that you tended to get
jealous all the time. Yet the way | see it, you're not what they think you are.”
| simply nodded as | drove, yet somehow Vivian felt encouraged.
“Antois a very decent man. He has been taking care of Chris and me. Chris grew up without a dad. Though he
never mentions it, | know that he always wants a father. I'm
wondering whether Antocan join us in the family park next Sunday if you don’t mind.
“With Chris around, Antoand | won't do anything that crosses the line.” | pulled up the car and turned around
with a smile.
“Sure. You don’t have to ask for my permission. He's an adult. He makes his own decisions.”
“Grace!” Antofrowned even harder. He opened the door for Vivian and Chris. Before he walked the two of
them upstairs, he went back to the car, askingto switch seats with him.
He wantedto see in the front seat, yet | went to the back.
“Why don’t you sit beside me? Are you mad?”

Without Chris and Vivian, the car fell into silence. | found the quietness suffocating.
Finally, Antobroke the silence. “I promise this is the last time. When it’s done, I'll talk to Vivian and Chris.
Grace, please trust me. Please.”
| nodded under his gaze of expectation. He let out a sigh of relief, feeling lucky to get away one more time. Yet
he didn’t know that my heart had already died as my love for him perished.
| couldn’t care less. Next Sunday, | would fly abroad anyway.
Out of guilt, Antotreatedvery well in the coming week. He even took the initiative to makebreakfast.
Yet he was not a good cook. What he cooked was barely edible.
| thanked him and threw away the lunchbox he preparedevery morning after leaving home.
He started to textvery often, tellingwhere, with whom, and what he was doing. That was something he
used to do when we had just been together.

At the very beginning, | never asked him to tellhis whereabouts. He always took the initiative to do that.
Gradually, as | got used to that, he got tired of doing that.
The week passed quickly. Antodressed up Sunday, pretending not willing to go. Yet I could tell from his tie
that he valued the event, too.
That was the first present | bought for him, which cost my salary of six months.
When he received it, he said he would take care of it and he would only wear it on our 50th marriage
anniversary. Yet now, he put it on to hang out with Vivian and her kid.
