Now everything that she saw like a charm starts to anger her. Cal leaves Lauren for no reason, and this time she’s 23 years old. All he says is that he has to go and doesn’t explain where and why he’s leaving; he tells Lauren not to give up on him.

For two years, no word or news of him and his whereabouts but one day, by chance, Lauren learns where Cal is living and goes to look for him, and it’s at this point that mind-blowing revelations come to light.
