Timothy’s phone buzzed unexpectedly as he walked out of his apartment. Glancing at the screen, he saw an unknown number displayed. Curious, he answered the call. 

“Hello?” 

“Hey, Timothy. It’s Arial Can you come over to my apartment? There’s something important we need to discuss,” Aria’s voice, usually light and carefree, held a hint of urgency. 

“Sure, I’ll be right there,” Timothy replied, a sense of anticipation settling over him. He couldn’t help but wonder what could be so important that Aria needed to discuss it in person. 

As Timothy walked across the hall to Evie and Aria’s apartment, he found the atmosphere unusual. Aria poked her head out, looked in both directions, and dragged him inside. He first spotted Lucas on the couch, huddled over the coffee table with some papers strewn about. 

The room buzzed with an energy that felt both secretive and purposeful. He looked around, expecting Evie to come walking out, but her presence didn’t seem apparent. 

“Timothy, hey! Thanks for coming.” Lucas greeted him, a forced smile playing on her lips. 

Timothy nodded in acknowledgment, though his eyes were guarded. “Good to see you again.” 

There was no further explanation as Aria guided him over to the couch and all but threw him onto it before taking a seat across from him on the floor. 

Timothy furrowed his brows, sensing an unspoken tension in the air. “What’s going on? Why all the secrecy?” 

Aria exchanged a glance with Lucas before sighing. “Timothy, we need you to be discrete about what you’re about to hear. It’s important.” 

The cryptic nature of their words heightened Timothy’s curiosity. “Okay, I’m all ears. What’s happening?” 

Lucas took a deep breath, choosing his words carefully. “We’ve been planning a trip to the lake, you know, the one we’ve been talking about for a while. But we’ve had to push it back because Evie has been so busy lately.” 

Aria chimed in, her eyes darting between Timothy and Lucas. “So, we thought, why not celebrate Evie’s birthda

while we’re there? It’s a surprise, and we want it to be perfect. But we need your help keeping it under wraps. Can we count on you, Timothy?” 

Timothy’s eyes widened with realization. The puzzle pieces fell into place, and he couldn’t help but smile. “Ah, I see! That’s a brilliant idea. Of course, I’ll help with any arrangements you need.” 

Relief washed over Aria and Lucas’s faces as they exchanged a glance. “Thank you, Timothy! We count on you,” Aria said, her tone softening. 

knew we could 

As Timothy headed back to his car, thoughts of the surprise celebration swirled in his mind. He felt a surge of excitement at the prospect of making Evie’s birthday special. And to think, he had almost spent it watching Stella walk down the aisle. 

He unlocked his car, hearing the familiar click of the locks. As he looked up, however, he spotted someone leaning against it. 

His father, Kamran, stood there, a stern expression etched on his face. 

“Timothy,” Kamran said, his voice low and controlled. “We need to talk.” 

Timothy sighed, the weight of the unspoken tension settling over him. “What’s there to talk about, Dad?” 

Kamran’s gaze bore into Timothy, frustration evident in his eyes. “You haven’t been returning my calls. We can’t keep avoiding this.” 

Timothy shrugged, feigning indifference. “I’ve been busy, Dad. You know how it is.” 

Kamran’s jaw clenched, the lines of worry deepening on his forehead. “This is more than just being busy, Timothy. We used to have a better understanding, a connection. I don’t want to lose that.” 

Timothy leaned against his car, a sense of weariness settling in. “Things change, Dad, and the only reason you’re looking for a “connection‘ with me now is because your prodigal son ran off.” 

Kamran’s frustration flared, and he took a step closer. “Regardless of whatever transpired in the past, I’m your father, Timothy. You can’t shut me out like this.” 

Timothy hesitated, noting how his father had conveniently blocked the driver’s side door. “It’s complicated, Dad. I have my own life now, my own challenges. I can’t always live up to your expectations, so we might as well go our sperate ways and not disappoint eachother any more than we already have.”

Kamran’s expression softened, a mixture of concern and hurt in his eyes. “I just want to be a part of your life. Timothy, I want to understand what’s going on with you.” 

Timothy met his father’s gaze. “Why can’t you just accept that I don’t want that? I don’t want to feel like a 

constant burden.” 

Kamran sighed and pushed himself away from the car. He approached Timothy and clapped a hand on his shoulder. “I don’t want to lose you, Timothy. You’re my son. I’ve already lost a…a wife.” 

Timothy looked away, a sense of guilt gnawing at him. “I need some time, Dad. I can’t promise anything right 

now.” 

Kamran nodded, a sense of resignation in his gaze. “I hear you, but can we at least try to be civil? I’d like that 

Timothy hesitated. “I’ll think about it.” 

Kamran nodded in acknowledgment, accepting Timothy’s terms. “Fair enough. Take the time you need.” 

He moved away, giving Timothy the space to open his car door. Before he could dip inside, however, Kamran spoke up once more. 

“Timothy, there’s something else I wanted to talk to you about.”
