Simona spotted Stephen from a distance. Yet, the moment she saw him, a familiar thought crept back into her mind.

It was an urge that had always pushed her toward Stephen. Yet recently, another voice surfaced in her mind, whispering that she shouldn't trust him. Stephen was a fraud through and through.
