YIREN (PART-2)
Our chit-chat continues. Of course, leave three women alone, they can gossip nonstop. But somehow the topic keeps coming back to me and Jun and my tongue is starting to curse me for the number of lies coming out of my mouth.
My eyes drift toward the kids playing in the gym, climbing the structures I designed specifically for them.
"I'm glad they like it," I said, desperate to steer the conversation away from my so-called zipper incident. "The gym, I mean."
Suyin's eyes widened in surprise. "Wait, you designed this?"
I nodded, feeling a wave of relief that the topic had shifted. "Yeah, the whole condo, actually. I thought the kids needed a space where they could burn off some energy safely."
Honey, who was invisible all this time poked his head down from the first floor of the bed as if he found something of interest.
