Chapter 387: Story

"Are you going home directly? Can we grab a cup of wine? It has been a while since I've drank with you,' Charles said suddenly as he took a turn towards Grey's house.

Grey reasoned it for a moment. "I'm not really in the mood to go anywhere but we could drink at my house."

Charles brightened. "You could tell me about things I've missed as well because it seems like I've been gone forever."

Grey smiled. 'No problem. I don't know where to start but I will pick up from anywhere. Is that clear?'

Charles made a rumble of laughter. "Alright. Why don't you start by telling me what is going on with you and Aphrodite? It looked like you two had grown together over a few weeks." He observed. Though, he heard some news about them.

Grey huffed. "Aren't we supposed to be?"

Charles smiled softly. "Of course but you should understand what I'm talking about already."

Grey looked at him and feigned a confused look. "I sincerely don't understand."

Charles grunted inwardly. "I'm talking about something more sensitive. Don't tell me that nothing is really happening between you and Aphrodite. Are you still dating Caramel?"

Grey released a frustrated sign. "Can we not talk about it?"

Charles looked at him in the front mirror, hesitated, before he responded. ’ Sure," he accepted. "You are eventually going to have to say everything or I would ask from Aphrodite.

Grey shook his head softly. "Alright, I will do that but not today."

Charles smiled widely.

"So, are you leaving Jacksonville anytime soon?"

Charles shook his head. "I am here to stay and help you in any way that I can.

Grey smiled at this.

Alfred walked inside the room and waited, Caramel walked inside after a while. There were traces of tears on her cheeks.

It was early the next morning and according to Grey, he was supposed to show Caramel to her mom which was what he was currently doing.

She hesitated as she stared at her mother on the bed. "Mom," she whispered and almost choked on the word. Pain rushed into her and the tears rushed out the more, almost blinding her vision.

Alfred regarded her for a moment. "I will see the doctor now," He announced.

Caramel didn't talk but continued to sob.

Alfred saw her silence as a positive indication and walked out of the room.

Caramel regarded Beatrice for a moment, a smile actually exploded on her face. "I thought you were dead," the tears increased. "I thought I was never going to see you again."

She touched Beatrice in places that were visible for her to touch, and her heart ached the more.
