Gabriel freezes, rooted where he’s standing. His hand tightens, holding mine in an almost painful grip. I look up at him only to find his eyes wide, shock; coloring his features.

11look over his shoulders to find a red- headed woman, looking at him with + unshed tears in her eyes. She seems emotional. I don’t understand her behavior or that of Gabriel's.

Slowly, Gabriel unfreezes and turns, his movements a bit stiff. He seems almost like a robot.

“Ashley?” This time, I'm the one that stands frozen on my spot. My heart races as her name hits my ears and registers in my brain. | take a step back and try to pull my hand

from Gabriel's, but he doesn’t let go.

Instead, it tightens.

Her hair falls down her back in shinny ringlets that remind me of the setting sun. Her green eyes were wide and expressive, framed by long lashes that | were a shade darker than her hair. Her high, well-defined cheek bones stand out, and her full lips finish off her striking features. She was taller than I was, probably standing at five foot eight . or nine. She has a slender figure with a small waist.

I stare at the beauty in front of me, my eyes drinking her in. No wonder Gabriel went for her. The woman was gorgeous, her natural beauty shinning even with little makeup on her face.

“At first I didn’t know if it was you,” she says, her voice soft. “You are rarely seen in such a public place.” Just then, a hot dog cart passes near us. | push down the urge to throw up. Its

greasy smell turning my stomach. I have been feeling this way for the past one and a half weeks. 4 I have my suspicions, but I haven’t taken the test yet. I know the symptoms, and I am a hundred percent sure of what is | ailing me. Despite this, I haven't told Gabriel. I haven’t told him that I suspect that I am already pregnant.

I can’t explain it. It’s the same case with moving to the new house. I have been waiting for something. I just don’t know what, but I know that when I find it, T will know.

“What are you doing here? Are you following us?” Gabriel asks, in a hoarse voice.

The need to run away hits me hard. I don’t want to be here. I don’t want to be standing here where Gabriel is face-to face with his first love. A girl that caused him the heartbreak that turned him into a cold man.

She raises her hand up, shaking them.

“No. I swear it’s just a coincidence. I decided to use this park as a shortcut on 4 my way to work.” I shift from foot to foot, feeling uncomfortable. I wish Gabriel would let | go of my hand, but I know it’s impossible with how tight he’s holding it. : There is an uncomfortable, awkward silence as they stare at each other. None of them uttering a single word.

I can’t help but wonder what’s going on inside his mind. Is he remembering their shared memories? The good times? The love he once had for her? I am facing his back now, so I can’t really read his facial expression.

Oh, my goodness, what if the love he had for her is resurfacing now that he is seeing her again after years? He never told me what happened after he caught her with someone else, and I never asked.

I thought that once he’s ready to tell me

the rest of their story, he will. Maybe I should have pushed to know more. My heart can’t bear it if I find out that | underneath the hurt and heartache, he is still in love with her.

| Her eyes momentarily shift to me before they go back to Gabriel. “Can we talk? I recently came back, and I was hoping we could talk.” “I am sure anything you have to say you _ cansayitin front of my wife, Ashley.

There are no secrets between us,” Gabriel says, his voice calm and assured.

Again, she looks at me before pulling her eyes away. Before she did, though, I saw regret in them.

“I never got to apologize to you for what I did,” she begins, while fiddling with her hands nervously. “It didn’t take long for me to realize that I was wrong, but by then you had taken your revenge, and | had to flee abroad.”

Gabriel doesn’t say anything, so she continues.

“Paul put me up to it. We were dating, ) . and when he realized that you and your brother were attending the same school, he wanted me to get close to you when he couldn’t. His plan was to be your friend and take advantage of it. He couldn’t get close to either of you, so he talked me into it. I am an orphan, and I was drowning in debts, so I agreed. We first learned all we could about you, what you like, what kind of girls you prefer, and your favorite places. After months of studying you, we set up the stage where we first met.”
