Once my color returned after taking the medicine, Ethan and Mason quickly removed the offending bowl
For the next few days, they were like ghosts, their rooms dark and silent.
I didn’t care.
I was busy packing my bags.
Once most of my belongings were packed, I really looked around the house, a place once filled with laughter.
I’d bought it, and Ethan and Mason had bought the houses on either side, connecting them to create a large home, so we could live closer together.
Now, only a third of it felt like mine.
Selling would be complicated.
But I was determined to leave the past behind.
Ethan and Mason finally returned, just as a realtor arrived to discuss the sale of the house.
Seving a stranger in their home, Ethan’s face darkened “Who are you? What are you doing here?”
The realtor, visilily intimidated, stammered “Gentlemen, I’m a realtor. The homeowner wants to sell the property.”
Sell the house!
Ethan and Mason exchanged shocked, bewildered glances.
They were about to order the realtor out when I came down the stairs.
“I’m selling the house. I was about to discuss it with you both,” I said calmly.
Echan and Mason’s hearts sank
They asked in unison “Why? Everything’s fine here, isn’t it?”
Mason, remembering the incident with the porridge, fel a sense of foreboding
“Are you
about the porridge? We didn’t mean to forget about your allergy. Do you really have to do this?”
I shook my head, my voice flat. It’s not about the porridge…”
“It’s about you twn.”
I don’t want anything more to do with you.
I didn’t say that, though
“You know I quit my job. I need a fresh start, and this house isn’t convenient anymore. Besides, we’ve lived together for years. constantly together.”
Ethan’s face hardened. “If it’s work, we can drive you. We’ve lived together for years; we’re used to each other. Why separate?”
Yeah, with me and Ethan here, what do you have to worry about? I don’t agree with this,” Mason added.
Their insistence tested my patience.
I laid down my trump card.

At the mention o of Qiana, their eyes lit up, but a flicker of hesitation crossed their faces. Mason, unable to resist, spoke first. “If that’s the case, then… maybe.”
Ethan, however, remained thoughtful, his gaze complex
You’re willing to… to have Qara live with us?”
He sensed something wasn’t right.
I chuckled, a hint of mockery in my voice “Of

I made a decisive decision. Let’s do it. Sell this house and buy a new ope
Ethan and Mason offered no further objections.
