Arlo

He now works as a licensed psychiatrist. With him already helping in his little brother\'s study, he decided to enroll him in his school and at the same time, meeting his homeroom teacher.

As he was already in school and had led his little brother to his classroom for him to know his surroundings so he won\'t get lost, people gaped at the handsome man, making Kent comment about his charisma.

Arlo only brushed it off.

With him not dating anyone since the case of Angeal, he decided that he should just focus on his dream and goals—being a successful psychiatrist while taking his education units so he could teach in a university while helping his family thrive with his help now that his stepfather had taken it easy from work.

As they entered the classroom, it turned out that Arlo\'s ex-girlfriend, Jorna Murphy, was his little brother\'s homeroom teacher!

With a familiar smile coming to his face, Jorna glared at him from afar, her hands turning into tight fists as she never expected to see Arlo after how many years since their unexpected breakup!

With Arlo greeting her with a smirk on his face, he greeted her and asked how she was, Jorna being sarcastic with telling him how great he was since he had left her only to find out that the reason why was that he was raising a child from another woman whom he suddenly fell in love with.

As Kent furrowed his brows with the confusion, he said, "what does he mean, brother?" making Jorna suddenly feel embarrassed as she misunderstood the situation—Kent, her student, actually her ex-boyfriend\'s little brother!

Arlo then chuckled and then enjoyed her reaction, telling her that they will further see each other from time to time since he is the school\'s guidance counselor.

Nevin and Dharvey

Dharvey lived in the Kingdom of Gehenna even though she\'s now studying as an artist in a university—dropping from nursing school as she now pursued her dreams.

With Umbra now getting close with her daughter ever since the war ended, he started changing since King Blanc had reigned the kingdom. With his best friend, Shadow, dead, he grew to be attached to his daughter, Dharvey.

From time to time, Dharvey would come to visit his father in the castle since Umbra is now King Blanc\'s right hand. From time to time, he would see Nevin helping his father with the plans, both of them getting close as well ever since she had rescued him from the evil King Zen.

As they decided to have a walk in the garden, both of them were comfortable in each other\'s silence, from time to time talking about anything under the sun.

With them already sitting by the water fountain, Dharvey was doing a quick sketch of the garden before them—thinking of how to show love as it is the theme asked for their art.

With her sighing in frustration, Nevin asked what\'s bothering her, Dharvey saying that love is difficult to visualize since her heartbreak.

With Nevin only joking that they should try kissing, both of them actually did it since they thought that they won\'t feel a thing. However, when their lips met each other\'s, they found their heart racing in their chest, their assumptions wrong as they now thought of each other since that night.

Devin and Angeal

Angeal\'s eyebrow twitched as she heard their children fighting over the final slice of cake. With them raising their voices at each other, Angeal could no longer control them since they Damon and Annalise are aged 8 and 5 respectively, not yet mature for their years.

With her already rubbing her temples as she gave up reprimanding them, Devin took action, already getting a fork and starting taking a piece of the final slice of cake and brought it over to his wife.

As their children exclaimed their complain, both of them silenced when Devin took another forkful of cake and had given his wife a taste of it.

He then calmly reprimanded their children, saying that their mother was tired from writing novels and their shouting doesn\'t help at all.

With the two already quiet, they apologized to their mother, Angeal thanking Devin as they decided that they would eat out for dinner then will buy them each a small cake.

After their dinner and once the children were knocked out, the two had their usual stargazing, both of them enjoying and remembering how it was before wherein they always hoped for a life like this.

With it already happening, they realized that they were so busy about their children\'s future, that they were already in the position that they always wished for years ago.

"Aaaaw… so this is what the author planned for the other couples," Shu Xian commented, already feeling warm in her heart that each of them is getting their happy ending.

"And… what can you say about Arlo\'s?" Zhong Li asked, Shu Xian looking at him with wide open eyes, her voice enthusiastic in her answer.

"At first, I was actually sad that Arlo is not going to end up with Dharvey because I thought that they\'d make amends! Turns out that this ending is also good—meaning that Arlo has gotten over and may have met someone that is for him!"

"True," Zhong Li agreed, crossing his arms in front of his chest. "And besides… I find it unrealistic if after the cheating incident wherein they broke the friendship, Arlo and Dharvey would be together. It\'s as if they have no conscience for their actions at all."

"Well, you\'re right," Shu Xian agreed, remembering what she read a while ago. "Besides… Dharvey and Nevin can make a good match, too! Don\'t you think?"

"Agreed."

And with that, Shu Xian continued to read the very last part of the spoil that the author left, Zhong Li preparing his question as he wanted to initiate the conversation about it.

What could be Shu Xian\'s type of guy… and is it possible that he could ever be the one for her?
