Olivia felt a surge of panic as her phone rang. She hesitated before answering.
ude''s voice came through the line, "Did you get it, Olivia?"
She gazed at the bracelet in silence.
"I was surprised to see you at the church today. Maybe even God knows how much I miss you," ude
continued softly. "I thought of you when I saw the two of you with the amulet, so I got the bracelet from
the priest. I hope it brings you happiness, along with a healthy baby."
Olivia''s heart warmed at his words. Despite knowing his intentions, she sensed his sincerity.
Yet, she replied with a cold tone, "Thank you for the bracelet, ude. But please, stop giving me
things. It''s best if we don''t talk. You''re only causing trouble by doing this."
Her words were firm and unwavering.
She knew she didn''t belong in their world. Maintaining their friendship was unnecessary, as she would
eventually return to where she truly belonged.
ude fell silent for a moment, not angered. Eventually, he said, "I''m sorry for causing you trouble,
Olivia. I don''t know how to be good to you. I''ll be careful."
"You don''t have to do that, ude. Okay, I''m hanging up."
Olivia ended the call abruptly, clutching the bracelet tightly.

loneliness, his gentle eyes dimmed with sadness.

Naomi crouched by his suitcase, gazing at him.
He had just finished a work call, slipping his phone away as she said that. Meeting her eyes, he replied,
"It''s alright. I only need myptop and documents."
She used to pack his bags for him, and that hadn''t changed.
Smiling, she insisted, "No, I''ll pack everything for you. I won''t let anyone else do it."
Tyler didn''t argue with her
persis. He handed his phone to
have
Linda and said, "If you''re bored, your parents keep youpany."
It was a customary gesture, but Naomi was pleased to hear it. "I will. Don''t worry."
As he reached for his coat on the couch, his phone rang again. He froze, and Linda nced at him
immediately.
"It''s Ms. Ana, sir," she informed him.
"End the call," Tyler directed.
Naomi asked, "How''s Olivia, Tyler?"
