The situation needed to escalate. If Nyla wasn't pushed to her limits, she wouldn't willingly stay by his side.

Melody cried bitterly in the taxi on her way home. She hadn't expected that the first man she ever liked would use her to scheme against Nyla, and worse... Nyla was his sister. When she got home, she cried again.
