Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

A gentle breeze blew. The birds chirped and twittered, trying to break the silence of the cemetery, creating a sad chorus.

The birds sang for a long time. Perhaps they felt they could not break the hush and thus decided to stop. The surroundings fell quiet instantly, as though time had frozen.

Trevon was wearing sunglasses and a black sweater suit, standing in front of a tombstone in silence. His sharp facial features were filled with coldness. Even with sunglasses on, one could feel the icy aura around him.

Jim stood behind, not even daring to breathe loudly. Jim didn’t know why Mr. Wilson came to the cemetery so early in the morning. Mr. Wilson didn’t even buy flowers or anything else. Did Mr. Wilson really come to pay respects to the dead?

After standing for about half an hour, Jim’s imagination had gone wild.

Trevon’s eyes were menacing. Trevon looked at the tombstone of Barron through the lens of his sunglasses as if he could stare through it. Then, Trevon looked at Jenny’s tombstone beside Barron’s, and Trevon’s eyes. softened.

After standing for a few more minutes, Trevon turned around and spoke to Barron with a cold expression, “Retribution should be coming soon.”

After a moment of silence, Trevon turned around and left without hesitation.

Looking at his boss’s strange actions, Jim was very confused. Although Jim was puzzled, his feet still followed his boss closely.

At the foot of the mountain, Jim unlocked the car. Trevon slid into the backseat. Jim opened the door of the driver’s seat and went in. Through the rearview mirror, Jim asked his boss, “Mr. Wilson, are we heading back to the company?”

Trevon did not answer the question. Instead, Trevon instructed Jim, “Don’t tell her we came to the cemetery.”

Trevon was referring naturally to Natalie. Jim nodded. “Okay. Are you heading to the company?”

“Yeah.”

Things usually come in waves, bringing both joy and sorrow.

When it was almost time to get off work, the door of Natalie’s consultation room was open and Emily crashed in. Yes, Emily did not push the door open. Emily had slammed it open.

There was another patient in the consultation room. The patient was shocked by the sudden sound and turned to look at the person at the door.

Natalie glared at Emily at the door and spoke first. “If you’ve come for a doctor’s consultation, take a number.”
