Author's POV:

On New Year's Eve:

Dream had been hiding Huia in an abandoned little cabin in the woods. She would bring her food and other necessities, while Huia would enjoy listening to the TV the whole day.

At this point, Dream was beginning to think Huia wouldn't be able to help her. That she only tempted her with false promises so that Dream could free her.

Dream had grabbed the fresh food for Huia for New Year's Eve and was on her way back home when she spotted something that made her hit her brakes.

"Is that Maddox?" she frowned, watching Maddox on a bike with some girls. Since both of them were wearing helmets, Dream could only recognize Maddox.

"Who is this girl with him?" She frowned before starting her car and following him at a safe distance. It seemed to her that Maddox was enjoying this girl's company a little too much. Dream's heart was pumping hard in her chest as she kept replaying the voice note she had sent to him, wishing him a happy new year in advance. But he never responded to her, and now she knew why. This new girl was keeping him occupied.

After following them to an abandoned road, Dream had to park her car way before them and get on her feet to get a glimpse of this girl. As she started walking in their direction through the woods, her eyes kept growing in size. Finally, she reached them, but they could not see her. She was hiding in the field, watching the two stare at the fireworks. As the girl turned around, Dream's lips let out a gasp of surprise.

"Beatrice!" Dream clenched her jaw, watching the two soon start kissing and getting intimate. She had to get out of there before she lost herself and made a mistake. After she rolled back into her car, she drove like crazy. Her eyes never stopped shedding tears as she made her way into the woods.

Her heart was completely ripped out of her chest, but there was not much she could do about it. She cleaned up her tears and walked into the cabin to give Huia the food she had brought for her. Huia was sitting comfortably in bed, listening to some TV show. The loud voice was bothering Dream, as she wanted to be alone at the moment.
