- ISOBEL - I swing by a cafe, one of my favourite, with James tagging along by my side. We couldn't beat running into Cain back home but for the first time in my life since I knew Cain, he let me leave home without a possible ulterior motive or an argument. And he's not following me. As shocking as that is to imagine, he's at home while I'm out here. Alone. On my own with no one breathing down my neck. Wow. It's almost surreal. I guess good things do come with having kids. I should ask Nina if her cousin needs a babysitter tomorrow. I could make a few bucks out of this and it will actually benefit me in the long run. I clear my throat and pull the door open. The ring of the bell at the door of the café as we enter pleases my ears as the scent of freshly baked pastry fills my nose. J
