When There Is Nothing Left But Love

The giant river flow of time had always been unforgiving with washing people away. Unfortunately, as mere human beings, we couldn’t do anything but watch them leave. Luckily enough, there would always be those people left behind that could huddle together for warmth.

“What are you guys doing here?” I moved aside with a smile, leaving some space on the sofa for Rose to sit down.

She clearly had gotten past all of the Jackson drama and just sat down right next to me. “I heard that you guys came back, and I kept thinking about dropping by, but I was in Europe at the time, so I pushed it all the way to now. You’re not mad, are you?”

“Of course not! I’m glad to see you. Don’t worry about that,” I said breezily. Catching on to what she said earlier, I continued, “Has the Harrisons’ business already broken into Epea?”

“Not yet,” Rose said, a bright red blush suddenly creeping onto her cheeks. She glanced at Nick before saying, “We went for our honeymoon. Nick had been really busy the past year with work, so the moment he got some free time about six months ago, he took me on a global tour.”

Holden smiled meaningfully and interrupted, “Good for you, Mr. Harrison! I told you, men do best when they’re with women. Now you know why we tried so hard, right?”

Rose’s smile stiffened at Holden’s words.

I sighed. Holden was straightforward, but he definitely needed to learn about picking a time and place.
