201 Werner- 2

Since the wedding, Simon hadn't shown up at her doorstep to help tend to her garden, and Andrew had been conspicuously absent after their meeting.

 Eva couldn't help but feel a sense of unease settle within her. 

Everything had changed in the blink of an eye, and it was not what she had expected, especially after Andrew had shared his memories and secrets about himself and Simon, shedding light on the dark truth of what Charles had done to maintain the balance of the 500 people in Waraka.

Eva felt a growing sense of isolation and uncertainty. The absence of her friends and the sudden shift in their behavior left her with more questions than answers. 

What could have caused this sudden change? Did they abandon her? Were they coerced or threatened into silence?

 The weight of suspicion hung heavy in the air as she grappled with the possibility that Charles might have manipulated them, just as he had manipulated so many others.
