Chapter 8 On Saturday , Evelyn attended the class reunion .
She wanted to see everyone one last time , to bid a final farewell to her youth .
She hadnt expected Issac to come .
He usually avoided such social gatherings in the past , only she and Sophia could drag him along .
Yet today he not only came but brought Summer .
As drinks flowed and music played , someone suggested party games .
Lets play Spin the Dare ! Whoever it lands on must complete the truth or dare challenge ! Issac stepped out for a work call , and though Evelyn was hesitant , others pulled her into the game .
The first spin landed on her .
The dare : kiss the next person who walks through the door for ten minutes .
Evelyn clutched the paper slip in silence .
Summer smirked .
Oh Evelyn , I know youre too pure for this .
If you cant handle it , just get on your knees and polish my shoes instead .
Thatll count .
Evelyn saw the malice in her smile and tightened her grip on the paper .
What did a kiss matter to someone already dying ? Ill take the dare , she said quietly .
Summers smile deepened , a calculating gleam in her eyes .
In the hallway , Issac finished his call and turned to see a disheveled homeless man approaching excitedly The man was bragging on his phone : Just got paid to kiss some girl at a party.
Easy money ! As he hung up and reached for the door with a leering grin , Issac grabbed his arm .

Issacs face was cold as he stepped through first .
The room fell silent at his entrance .
Summers face drained of color this wasnt the plan ! Evelyn stared at Issac in shock .
Issac acted oblivious .
Why is everyone staring ? Someone hesitantly explained : Evelyn got a dare … to kiss whoever came in next … for ten minutes .
Issac sat down calmly .
Childish .
Yes , yes , lets skip this one ! Summer quickly interjected .
Everyone hurriedly moved on , aware of his engagement .
After the party , Summer confronted the homeless man in private .
Why didnt you come in faster ? Not my fault … that guy deliberately pulled me back .
Almost seemed intentional .
The thought that Issac still protected Evelyn infuriated Summer .
Engaged for two years , yet he never mentioned setting a wedding date .
Seething , she made a phone call after dismissing the man .
The next day , Issacs parents summoned him home .
