Chamberlain was one of Isabella"s audiences. It was nice seeing his sister post pictures and videos online. Scrolling through her page, he saw her selfies, he saved all of them. Then her solo videos, a huge grin appeared on his face as he watched her videos. He sent the link to his mother because he knew she also wanted to know what Isabella was up to.The next video playing was different, it was Sean and Kim with the caption, "just become a couple already." Chamberlain found it hilarious. A mischievous glint flashed through his eyes as he sent the link with a caption to Carl.
…
At home, Carl felt like a married woman waiting for her husband to return home. He missed her dearly and he was also restless.
He had nothing to do and no one to hang out with. Before now, he didn"t feel the need to socialize, however, he was regretting it. May be he should go back to work.
His phone chimed, he checked, it was a message from Allan. It contained information on houses he selected. It was up to Carl to pick whichever he wanted and purchase will be made.
He wished she was here so he could ask for her opinion, but she wasn"t, besides she didn"t want to move just yet.
Not wanting to make the final choice, he texted Allan, [Surprise me.]
As he got up, preparing to leave the house, he received another message, this time from an unknown number, opening it, it was a link with the caption, "Isn"t this your lady?" Out of curiosity he clicked it.
His eyes narrowed as he watched the video. May be he didn"t believe his eyes so he watched the video again. This time around, he didn"t just narrow his eyes, there was a burning feeling in his chest and his face reddened.
Thinking if he watched the video one more time he would not be able to control his emotions, he deleted the link, turned off his phone and stormed off.
…
Back at the color run, the trio had made it to the finish line after much delay on their part.
They were greeted with a festival. There were lots of people b.u.mping or dancing to the music. Kim was too tired to even talk, she found her self a spot under a tree to rest.
There was a couple making out not too far from her. Her ears immediately reddened as she heard the sound of their sloppy kiss and pleasure. Her mind wandered to Carl, as her cheeks heated. "What is he doing now?" She pondered as she took out her phone to call him but it was switched off.
Sighing, she put the phone back in her bag before getting up, she was just too embarra.s.sed to sit by the couple. She spotted a few food vendors and dragged both Isabella and Sean to the stand. Unknown to her the video Isabella had taken and the fact that Carl had seen it. Though it was not Isabella"s intention, the damage had been done and Kim would only make it worse.
After eating all she found interesting, Kim could not take it anymore and decided to go home. After turning down Sean"s insistence to send her home, she called for a taxi to pick her up, she felt she was going to throw up at any moment.
She wanted to be home early. Carl was alone at home besides he also told her to return before five. She felt he was naggy when he told her but she still decided to turn in early because he was only worried about her.

So without cleaning up the color at the designated station, she got into the taxi and headed home.
…
"You went out?" Kim raised her brow as she saw Carl walking out of the elevator.
His eyes were a bit red, other than that, he looked fine. "Why are your eyes red, did something happen to you?" Inquired Kim, stretching her hands to caress his cheeks. Her hands merely grazed him before he retreated.
"I"m fine." He said in a low husky voice. He did not know how to bring up the video because they had no relationship whatsoever, she could do as she pleased.
"But you"re burning up.. are you sick?" She frowned while reaching out to touch his forehead. He shuddered at her touch, then he retreated once more.
"I"m not." He spoke up trying to convince her, but his voice was worse than he expected. He had been screaming his lungs out to relieve the anger he felt so of course it was bad, she just didn"t know that.
"Are you avoiding me?" She gasped. Her eyes widening at the realization.
"No, we should go in first." Carl said, turning the handle before going inside. She followed in, before asking, "Then why?"
"I want to ask you a question, I hope you"ll be sincere." Changing the topic, he sat down.
"Ok…" she stared at him quizzically.
"What are…" we?" He wanted to ask, but he knew the answer to that already. "How about we.. date?" He asked, looking into her eyes. Kim stood blankly by the door unsure of what to say.
