Chapter 40

I was kind of ashamed to go back to my parents, I could very much have gone to a hotel or something but I didn't, I needed them. I rang the doorbell and my mom opened it.

"Shayan, Evie." She exclaimed surprised to see us.

"Sheila who's at the door?" My dad asked

"Dad," I said hugging him. We did a family hug and I smiled. I missed my family.

"You came on your own, what about Kelvin?" Dad asked noticing his absence.

Throughout the ride here I had thought of what to say if they asked. I wanted to tell them the complete truth but I still felt obliged to keep the contract a secret.

"He's at work or home," I answered.

"You didn't come with any luggage, are you going back soon?" Mom asked.

"No. I'd be staying here for a while," I answered ashamed

"What did he do? Don't tell me he sent you out" dad angrily said.

"No, no, no. He didn't." I tried clarifying.

"You left him?" Mom shouted.
