Chapter 107: An Unexpected Text.
Kyle was shocked by the gesture Calista had shown him because he never expected her to reciprocate his energy but this confirmed that this was becoming a serious thing.
However, his earlier conversation with her regarding Jane and Ella told him that she was one to accept him having multiple women as long as he didn't neglect her.
Or he would have gotten a more violent reaction from her when he told her he did leave with some women.
Calista's main concern was to maintain her spot in his life even if he did have other women.
She knew how these things worked so it wouldn't surprise her nonetheless.
She left Kyle alone soon after and allowed him to have the day to himself just like he planned to.
He hopped on his gaming console and played some games, most notably God of War: Ragnarok.
This was one of his favourite games because it symbolized Kratos' journey from a brute to a gentle god.
The character development was up there and this was one of those games that could be classified as the greatest of all time.
Kyle spent at least an hour or so playing but then his phone got an unexpected message from an unknown number.
He tried to figure out who he was but he came up blank, Kyle wanted to respond but he was in no hurry.
If someone was texting with an unknown number, it was common courtesy to introduce themselves. But this wasn't the first time that an unknown number had tried to contact him in the past couple of days.
Kyle wasn't the one going to drag this out as he had nothing to lose or gain by ignoring them because it was none of his business in the end. However, his phone soon buzzed again– a minute later.
Kyle looked at it again but this time, it was more than a simple greeting and he instantly recognized this person.
"Cassandra?" Kyle muttered to himself, dropping his controller because he thought she was done with him.
All while he was watching her do it and that was when he decided to come out.
Cassandra immediately caught him and waved him down, Kyle was surprised that she wanted to see him in public.
He expected her to want to sneak him in so there would be no evidence of his being here but this gave him a sense of security as there was no way that he wouldn't be seen by at least one person.
If anything should happen to him, there would be traces of him here.
Kyle approached her and he could tell that there was something different about her.
She looked... happy and Kyle looked over his shoulder to see that a few people were watching them.
"Hey, you..." Kyle began the conversation but Cassandra gave him a full-teeth smile.
"Hi! Want to come in, stranger?" Cassandra requested, Kyle felt like he was talking to a different person.
"Does she have a split personality?" Kyle thought to himself, he dared not verbalize his thoughts.
"Sure thing Cassey," Kyle responded and they both entered the house.
"I must say, I'm surprised you reached out to me after that incident," Kyle brought it up right away but this was in part to see her reaction.
"I was overwhelmed, I didn't know what to do at that moment," Cassandra confessed.
"So it had nothing to do with the fact that you're married?" Kyle questioned, he noticed the portraits on the wall didn't have any male figures.
It was only pictures of her and her child, there was no way she would be married and not have a picture of her husband on there.
"About that..." Cassandra said, smiling awkwardly.
"We're in the middle of a divorce," Cassandra finally revealed the nature of her relationship with the man.
