Harry had no idea how long he had been asleep, but the first thought that hit his mind when he opened his eyes was his father. He needed to give Lucy a call to find out how his father was doing. He stretched his hands to his bedstand hoping to touch his phone since that was the spot where he usually placed it, but his phone wasn't beside him.

So many thoughts ran through Tom's head as he looked at Candace who was standing in front of him, but the most prominent was that not only was she the mom of his favorite kid at the moment, but she was also Harry's twin sister and Lucy's cousin. Now that he looked at her closely, he could admit that there was a resemblance between them. One he would never have looked at her long enough to take note of until now.

Inside Sonia's apartment, she threw the towel Derek had used into the trashcan in the kitchen and went about cleaning up the place to remove every trace of him before going to take out her phone from the drawer she had kept it. She sighed when she turned on the phone and many texts came up. Some of the texts were from bloggers and journalists who had texted to know if the rumor about her fake engagement with Bryan was true or not, and a couple was from Derek telling her he loved her and begging her to get…

"I thought you left with Harry?" Lucy asked as she turned away from Aaron and Jamal to the door when Tom walked inside the room. "I dropped him off at his apartment. He wants to be alone so I left. How is Aaron doing?" Tom asked as his gaze moved to the bed where Jamal, who was now lying down on the little space beside Aaron, was sleeping. "He has been stable. He was crying in his sleep initially but he is calm now. How is Harry?" Lucy asked as she rose from her seat to meet Tom, and he sighed. "I don't…

Janet and Evelyn sat in the kitchen, drinking tea while Evelyn laughed uncontrollably as Janet told her how she had taken her advice and ruined Rachel's clothes. That was of course after Evelyn had told Janet all about her and Desmond's date the previous day. "I can't believe you really did that," Evelyn said in amusement since she hadn't exactly expected Janet to go along with it. "You have no idea how upset I was until you gave me that suggestion. And even though I realize how petty and childish it…

"Are you okay, dear?" Evelyn asked as she placed a hand on Sonia's arm when she noticed how distracted Sonia was as she sat in the car with them, often sighing and muttering under her breath. "I'm not. I had some kind of stupid misunderstanding with Bryan," Sonia said honestly as she turned in the passenger seat to look at the couple who were seated in the back seat. She was upset about her misunderstanding with Bryan and was even more upset now when she realized halfway after leaving the house that she…

Sonia walked over to the door, "How can you shower without me?" She asked from the doorway, but Bryan ignored her as he continued to lather his body with soap. Seeing that he was bent on ignoring her, Sonia locked the bedroom door and took off her clothes before joining him in the shower. Immediately she approached him, Bryan turned his back to her, "You are going to catch a cold," he told her grudgingly, reminding her that she needed to cover her hair. "So you…

It was more than just all that talk about her aunt randomly showing up. Lucy had acted like she knew more than she was letting on during the conference call, and knowing how tight-lipped Lucy could be especially when it concerned something that she believed wasn't her business to tell, she couldn't put it past her. She also believed that whatever Lucy was hiding was related to Harry. Why else had she rushed to ask Jade not to give up on Harry if she didn't know…
