Thiago had made the call that day, and Ezra said he was on his way.

Arriving at Thiago house, he walked over to the living room and took his seat.

“Mr. Thiago. It's been a couple of days now and you're not saying anything still. I wonder what that Dustin is saying to you right now.” He said

Thiago joined him and sat down. “Well, you're here now. That has to count for something.” He said to him.

“See this,” Ezra said, then brought out some pills. “Every time I give them to your wife, she's always better, isn't it?” Ezra asked.

“Well you seem to have connections with some really good doctors then, don't you.” Thiago said.

“Too bad that Dustin was not even powerful enough to solve your wife's problem. Or was he successful?” Ezra said.

“Apparently, he wasn't. He only did that day. The next day, my wife was already sick again. Dustin said something every funny however. But I wouldn't like to dwell on that.” Thiago said.

“And what is that?” asked Ezra.

And guess who took it, him!” Tom said.“You're mad friend! How can you say that?!” Dustin exclaimed. “Diamond ring? What the hell?”“Check your secret place. Is it still there?” Tom said to the man.

You have some explaining to do, young man.” He said to Dustin.“Tom, this isn't funny again. What do you mean I stole a diamond ring?

Though slender too, he still looked intimidating.“You know, I've heard so much about men like you before. I just can't believe that I would happen to meet one here in real life.” He said to him.“Men like me?what's that's supposed to mean?” Dustin frowned.From the look of things, Dustin had a conclusion drawn. He would try to stall for as long as he could. Maybe somehow, Thiago would have finally picked up and come around. He would have called if Vincent and Bobby, but he wanted to solve this problem on his own.“Yes. Thieves. Liars. Arrogant fools.” Replied the man.“Let me just tell you this,” Dustin said. “I can save myself here. There are many ways I can do that.

    Dustin had decided that very night to visit Mr. Whales. He needed information on who the so-called A-Club Team were, what it was all about. Maybe that would fetch him some closure.

He couldn't find that Freddy guy anywhere.“Who's asking?” the man by the counter asked. “You know what, never mind. I'll just give him a call now.” He tried calling Mr. Whales but his number wasn't going through.The man gave a snorted laughter. “There's no way you're going to be able to reach him. Boss is busy.

    Dustin tried to calm his wife down. He realized that she had been truly angered by Esther sudden behavior for wanting to create a grand wedding for Tom and not her. It was truly devastating and he couldn't deny that. "Alara?" He called out to her, knocking gently on the door. His voice remained as warm as early spring, as if her heart beat so steadily even though she took a different view from him. She simply said this was her way of doing things. He could see her balk at first, so accustomed he was the to ways of Alara and her fiery temper. He was different, because he absorbed things and then responded more than reacted, dampened situations rather than adding to the flames. And so before he knew it everything was happy again, it was love all around instead of the bickering he was so accustomed to. It was a sense of calm he grew to love.And he would be teaching it to his wife now. "This path of life is challenge enough," he began to say. Dustin remembered a little of what his moth

    Lies

    On this cloudy morning there are growing patches of blue, the sort of hue that is soft and bright at the same time. Though beneath the sheet of cloud is a grey that deepens to steel, the leading edge is a brilliant white, as if it is the pages of a new book ready for any curious eye. So, on this day that could bring rain or sunshine, I'm hoping for both, for the chance of a rainbow and to feel so much more because the day is blessed with clouds.Light grew steadily outside until the curtains glowed just the same as stained glass. Kevin stuck his head behind the fabric to survey what the day might bring. The road was slick with water, though the puddles remained quite still, no hint of rain still falling. Above the clouds were still grey but without the denseness of yesterday, allowing patches of blue to form.In good moods a writer may paint words that are fine wine and soft music; words that contain more healing medicine than all the drugs created by man.

    Paul set out to visit Dustin that day, and as he arrived their doorstep, he decided to make a phone call to his sister so she wouldn't say he came in unaware. The phone rang a few times and she still hadn't picked up. When he learned to soothe his impatient self, the rewards were significant. His focus improved, and his relationships became more mellow, and everything in his day worked that little bit better. It made all the difference. Over time he saw others learning from him, relaxing, and the vibe of his family took a turn for the better. She still wasn't picking up for whatever reasons. Finally at the last ring, she picked up. "Yes, Paul ? What do you want?" Asked her voice in a quite impatient manner, like she had been in a hurry. "Where are you to be hurrying me like that?" He asked, wondering why his sister was using that manner to refer to him. Then it hit him. She didn't really like him as well as her husband, and he certainly couldn't blame them at all.

    Esther was with her other queens, and they had nearly ended their meeting. She listened carefully to Regina's silly talks about how she was powerful and well respected. She purposely pointed fingers at Esther, stating that she had been less important just because she was going through some rough times.

    "Well, we don't have a head queen so technically, I'm speaking on behalf of her." "Well I don't agree. Until we have a head queen, you don't have the right to strip me off my membership." She said, still standing strong on her word. She was terrified on the inside of course! But she would not show her weaknesses. Regina frowned. "Well until then. But for now, being the owner of my house I say this to you. Get out of my house!" She ordered and more laughter grew wild again. Esther couldn't help but feel nothing but shame. But she wouldn't be waking away just like that. She strode over to Regina then stood face to face with her. "You're going to regret this Regina. In fact, all of you will regret this.

    Message

    For the first time in weeks, Mindy made her way over to Dustin again, and she couldn't even explain how exactly she was feeling. For one reason, she was angry. Very frustrated that he was still married to his goddamn wife! She loved him and would always do. And yet, not even for once had he reciprocated her feelings. Heaving in a deep sigh, she advanced forward to make a knock on the door. "Don't worry, Mindy. Breath it in," and with that, she made a knock on the door. It hadn't been a loud bang, rather barely more than a slight knock, but almost immediately, the door had flung wide open. "Oh God, you're back..." He was standing before her, staring like he had been day dreaming, probably wondering what the fuck she had been doing at his footstep. "Oh I thought you were someone else," he said so apologetically. That frustrated her even more. He had probably been excited thinking that she was his dear wife! She had better not show her true emotions to avoid failing on the first day o

    The breakup

    "This relationship, Dustin, should be a relation-ship, or a kinship - something that makes us family. I want it to be something that unites our friends, our relations, and not become as a boat cast adrift away from those we know and love. What is good builds up goodness, heals and includes others. What is good is a benefit to us and our community, to the world. It is how we let this love for one another spill out, make a light for others to share. So, my love, hoist the sail; we're homeward bound.""Wait you just thought of saying something as compelling as this to me because what?" He said to her, half shocked. She only smiled back, her eyes and dimples crinkling as she did. Alara was very beautiful although she never seemed to listen to him whenever he made mention of it to her. "Thank you a lot for the comforting words. I won't forget. You know," but he stopped then grinned as he thought of what to say and he knew already that she might have not been too impressed.

    Her job

    "Sir, I have done as you've asked. What is your plan now?" Mindy asked as she saw Dustin talking to himself. She sat with him. He didn't even do as if someone was there, just minding his own business and calculating now and what he would do to his rival. Sometimes she always wondered what it was that was truly going on in that mind of his, but she knew he was very smart and full of advices and plans. And she was always so glad that she was now on their team.Business had to ask themselves if they were exploiting the population or uplifting them, especially in relation to the young and if not, it failed. For what is psychological maturity other than learning how to make wise choices to protect others? The glorification of greed was as a golden tricycle being pedalled in circles at the end of a cul-de-sac... yet believing itself a fancy car shooting into the far horizon. Greed is always the product of a brain with underdevelopment of its more highly evolved features. But there he was
