Thomas ignored the concern Beth showed him because he was boiling with fury. "If only I could swim, I would have gone to the pool to destroy that ugly face of his", He thought. "Can someone please tell me what's going on here?" Beth turned to the people walking behind her dad since he refused to talk to her. They included Jane, Mart, and two men in a cop's outfit. "Quinn's not who he says he is", Jane said apologetically and Quinn instantly knew what she was talking about. Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do to stop anyone from spilling his beans. Present Day - S ean's Apartment "Uncle Sean, a sweet person like you doesn't deserve to be associated with filth", Beth said, giving Quinn the most disgusting look ever. "Quinn seems like a nice guy.

The Unanticipated "Quinn...what are you doing here?" Beth found it hard to believe he was going to attend a lab session with her. She assumed he was only going to drop an item she must have forgotten when they were together until her grey eyes saw him putting on a special lab coat. He even handed her a similar pair . "Yeah, boo", He widened the smile on his lips. "For real?" Beth's eyes remained bewildered. "How the hell did you manage to convince Mrs. Smith...." "Well..you know..the looks and all.." He quickly stole a peck from her. "Are you serious?" Beth faked being angry. "Have I ever been unserious with you?" He replied. "Then I'm going to murder her this instant", Beth said amidst gritted teeth, making the other students chuckle. They had never seen her that way. They were used to her quiet and calm self. "I need you all to focus. This practical requires special attention", M...

  Three Months Earlier All night, Miss Claire couldn't sleep because she was anticipating her son's eighteenth birthday. She could vividly remember the day she brought him into the world seemed like her last day. Her little angel didn't face any complications but she had to deal with a four-degree rectum tear and retained placenta. All the while, the then most loving of all husbands and the father of her child stood by her. She initially got discouraged about being his bride because many around her were victims of swindlers from his birth country yet later chose to stay with him. Unlike the other men she came in contact with before meeting him, he took full responsibility for her daily upkeep yet refused to take a dime from her when little Quinn came and caused a huge change in their monthly budget. "Happy Birthday, pumpkin", Miss Claire finally entered her son's bedroom after taking years to set up everything she needed to wish him her definition of a prop...

The New Man Quinn lived with his birth mother yet felt like the most lonely person ever. However, months ago, she was all he needed to have a great day. The promising young man enjoyed the privilege of being an only child to a single parent. Her eyes, a queer blend of light brown pigmentation, yellowish lipochrome pigment, and a splash of Rayleigh scattering were once enough to make his day smashing. They were inseparable even on days when Rochester was freezing or freaking hot. It was Quinn and his mom against the world until someone stole that privilege ! You might have guessed Miss Claire abandoned her son because she got herself a new husband or kid but that wasn't the case. There was no way she could trade her precious son for anything else. Even though she did get a fiance, she never stopped caring about him. It was Quinn who stopped leaning on her for strength on gloomy days. Still, she was hurt that despite being an award-winning therapist, there was only little she coul...

"Good afternoon, sir", Zach still had the effrontery to greet Dad. "Hey, my boy. How're you?", Dad patted his head, thinking he was one of his siblings' grandchildren he couldn't get familiar with due to his constant travels."Whose child are you?" "Hmm..Dad. He's not part of the family. He's a friend from the other street", I chose not to take advantage of Dad's lack of knowledge on what his relatives look like. "Oh..How're you?" Dad offered him a harmless handshake. He had faith in me, so it didn't look like he was suspicious. "Fine, sir", Zach's once calm voice, became queasy. "Seems like you guys were about to go somewhere when I came in earlier", Dad allowed Zach to assist him in taking his luggage to the living room. "Yeah. Zach's parents invited me to celebrate Christmas with them, so I won't be lonely", I said like it was the best offer anyone's ever of...
