Episode # 17

✦✦✦
As Liv and Kai stood in the awkward silence, trying to process everything.
The sound of a door slamming open echoed through the apartment.
Mia stormed into the room, looking frustrated. Behind her, Iris followed, looking just as irritated.
Liv Zara (FL)
Liv Zara (FL)
Mia, what's going on? Who...
Liv started, but her words were cut off when Iris stepped into view.
His eyes immediately locked with Kai's, and his face froze, his mouth slightly agape.
Iris Thompson (ML
Iris Thompson (ML's son)
Dad?
He asked, almost in disbelief.
Kai's gaze snapped to Iris.
Kai Thompson (ML)
Kai Thompson (ML)
Iris?
He blurted out, shocked.
Mia turned to look at Iris, confused as well. Liv stared at Iris, then back at Kai, clearly struggling with the realization that Kai has a son.
All of them stood still, unable to break the silence, each lost in their own whirlwind of quest questions and unspoken truths.

~ONE WEEK LATER~
GREENVILLE ELITE ACADEMY
Mia walked down the hallway, her mind racing. She couldn't stop thinking about how her ex-boyfriend's father, Kai was a boss of her sister.
It felt so awkward, and Mia couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
Mia Zara (FL
Mia Zara (FL's sister)
💭 How did this even happen?
She thought, shaking her head. She caught sight of Iris across the hall and tried to avoid eye contact.
Iris, still reeling from everything that happened, walked up to her, his face serious.
Iris Thompson (ML
Iris Thompson (ML's son)
Mia, do you...do you know why my dad's with you sister?
Mia hesitated, not knowing how to respond.
Mia Zara (FL
Mia Zara (FL's sister)
I...I don't know, Iris. But all I know is that thanks to him my sister didn't lose her baby.
Mia and Iris stood in the hallway still unsure of what to say. Before Iris could say a word, a group of popular girls walked past.
They stopped and looked at Mia, smirking.
Regina
Regina
Hey, Mia.
Regina called out.
Regina
Regina
Hope you haven't forgotten your new friends, here.
JoJo
JoJo
Yeah, we Love you, you know.
JoJo added with a teasing smile.
Anna chimed in.
Anna
Anna
Think about what we said.
Mia knew exactly what they meant. They didn't want her hanging around Iris. Her face fell, and she quickly turned away, walking briskly down the hallway without saying a word.
Iris watched her go, noticing the change in her expression.
Iris Thompson (ML
Iris Thompson (ML's son)
Mia?
He called after her, but she didn't stop. Mia kept walking.

~MEANWHILE~
~THE CROWN HOTEL~
Kai was doing his usual checkup of the employees at the entrance. His eyes scanned the line, and he stopped when he saw Liv.
Liv straightened up, trying to act normal, but there was still tension in the air between them after everything that had happened.
She gave him a small smile, but it quickly faded when Kai's cold voice cut through.
Kai Thompson (ML)
Kai Thompson (ML)
Lisa.
He said to his manager.
Kai Thompson (ML)
Kai Thompson (ML)
Didn't you tell her? Smiling during checkup is prohibited.
Liv got shocked by his change of demeanour towards her, lately for a week.
