GABRIEL
I took some minutes after my video call with King. His reaction was not unexpected to the kids but was frustrating for sure. I had never seen King act as he had begun about one and a half years ago.
I tried to find out the reason, but none occurred to me. King was a man of his word, and he would die just to keep it.
And these were the promises he made to Bria, the only woman who had ever gone so close to him that we all believed that he almost loved her though he never said it out loud.
And as far as I knew, Bria never mentioned him confessing his feelings to her. The night before she had to leave, they spent together in King's room.
Nobody knows what conversation happened between them that night except the two of them, but the next day, she left without meeting him or even asking about him. Though she was sad to leave us, she was not broken, that was what I knew back then.
