Liam Garcia’s flight landed at New York international airport. He had flown down here in a hurry to meet Arthur. He got off the plane as soon the plane touched the tarmac. He did not have much time and he had to meet Arthur immediately. Now, thinking about Arthur, Liam pulled out his phone and dialed Arthur’s number for the nth time. But that guy was busy vacationing with his wife and daughter and his lover Ethan. What a combination!! He thought.
“Damn it!!” Liam disconnected the phone call when the call went to voicemail. Arthur has not received a single phone call from him since yesterday evening and that had scared the shit out of Liam.
Arthur’s eyes grew wider and his heart began beating faster with passing second. He simply could not digest the information that Liam just gave away.“Wait a second. How do you know Ethan?” Arthur asked with doubt. He did not want to consider that his friend tailed him and could not rule out the possibility too. Since he knew Liam too well.“How else?

And the tight slap sound that resounded from her husband’s study room gave more reason for her to get nervous.She unlocked the door and entered the study room without knocking. There stood her son with a bright red mark on his cheek and her husband who was fuming with anger.

You don’t love me-“He cut her words short, “I love you Emily. Just not the way you want me to,” he moved forward and got on his kn
EpilogueArthur opened his eyes and smiled brightly while looking at the mesmerizing decorations and arrangements in front of him. The flower arrangements at the gazebo stood out the most. And the most authentic and the wow factor was the sign at the entrance of the venue. Mr & Mr.Arthur chuckled reading the words on the tag Duke was wearing. “Dad+Dad are getting married”.
