I quickly silenced the phone and pressed it tightly against my chest. The room was plunged into darkness. For a moment, the only thing I could hear was the pouriding of my heart.

I held my breath, paying attention to Nicholas. He mumbled something, buried his face in my hair, and tightened his grip around my waist. But when I tried to listen more carefully, he stopped talking. The phone buzzed twice. It was a message from Beth.

"Mr. Hawk, I'll schedule an appointment with the therapist after your 4:00 pm, meeting tomorrow. You mentioned that since Mrs. Hawk came back, you wouldn't need this much medication. But it's only been two days, and you've finished the pills I just sent." My mind went blank. How was his medication related to me?

I texted back immediately. "This is Ariana. Ms. Gardner, tell me the truth. Why is Nicholas taking these pills?"

I replayed every detail I knew about Nicholas and his 'autistic tendencies", but there wasn't much. If Claudia hadn't mentioned it in passing, I might never have known.

Nicholas had always seemed so perfect, nothing like someone who was psychologically unwell. Perhaps I had not been paying attention. I just assumed he had recovered.

Looking back, if psychological issues were so easy to cure, they wouldn't be called the most difficult problems to solve.

After waiting for a while, Beth didn't reply. So, I sent another message. "Ms. Gardner, since I already know, there's no point in hiding it. It's better for his health if someone else can help take care of him."
