C109 She Will Get To The Bottom Of This

Samantha remained standing where she was. She watched him carefully. His reaction had answered nothing. Yet somehow it felt like he had confirmed everything.

Still, she had no proof. Without proof, there was nothing she could do. She changed into her night clothes and lay down on the opposite side of the bed.

Neither of them spoke another word. The room became silent. But unlike Ben, Samantha couldn’t sleep.

As she stared at the darkness above her, countless thoughts ran through her mind. If Ben truly was behind the rumors… Then what else had he done? And how many of Mike’s misfortunes had never been accidents at all?

Samantha felt that she was standing at the edge of a truth she had been unable to see. And once she found that truth… She wasn’t sure what would happen next.

The next morning was bright and sunny, perfect weather for flying kites.

I woke up early, washed up, and stood in front of my wardrobe wondering what to wear. In the end, I chose a simple T-shirt and shorts before heading to the dining room for breakfast.

The moment my parents saw me dressed so casually, they looked surprised. “Son, where are you going looking this good?” my mother asked.

I laughed and reminded them, “Today is Kite Flying Day.” They looked at each other before suddenly remembering. “Oh yes!” my father said. “Enjoy yourself, son.”
