Is this destiny?

Sarah was thinking who could match that description... There is a lot of male students at the University, but only one stands out with his skills.

'Any person with above average skills can find a lot about me just by looking at some articles online and student information, but there is no way for him to find out that I'm looking into Philip and Mimi... unless...' Sarah looked at the bangle on her left wrist and started rotating it... she traced with her index finger each symbol: 'Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon... Rho, Sigma, Tau... Chi, Phi, Omega' Sarah noticed that Omega is larger than other symbols. 'How come I didn't notice this earlier?' She went back from the beginning comparing symbols and observed that Sigma is also larger... 'So out of all the symbols, only Sigma and Omega are larger? ... How come I didn't notice this earlier?!!'

Sarah was scolding herself for being blind. For ignoring the obvious.

Sarah started laughing at herself, 'And people tell me that I'm a prodigy? ... How can I be this blind... it's not only that Aiden is Omega, but he also knows that I am Sigma...' Sarah felt mix of emotions. Her pride was hurt, she always found herself at the top and now she realized that someone was better than her. Well, at least in this case.

'How did he find out about me? When did he find out about me?' She was certain that she always covered all her tracks, so how did he find out? At the same time, she was happy, if there is anyone whose intelligence she admires, that is Aiden. Him being Omega is so obvious that Sarah was mad at herself for not realizing it earlier. Even the bangle he gave her is like a blaring signpost which she didn't notice until now.

Sarah was wondering why he went through all the trouble of sending her files as Omega... Why he didn't share them without using Omega identity? Why he doesn't want to talk about Philip and Mimi with her when it's obvious how much more he knows. 'I'm sure he has his reasons... he didn't hide information from me because he did share it... Now what should I do? Should I confront him about this, or trust that his reasons carry weight and just play along?' As soon as word 'trust' showed up in her mind, she already had her answer. If there is anything that separates Aiden from anyone else in Sarah's eyes, it is that she trusts him. 'I can wait until he is ready to tell me himself'.

Realization that Aiden is Omega and that he knows that she operates under moniker Sigma, made her trust him more. He knows that she is Sigma, yet he didn't expose her. If that does not label him as someone who deserves her trust, then nothing else does.

She thought about Aiden and her, and idea that two of them are destined resurfaced in her mind. They are so much alike, that they even have Greek symbols as monikers. 'If that is not a crazy coincidence, then it can only be destiny.' But Sarah does not believe in coincidences. That is why her conclusion is that it can only be destiny.

Sarah spent some time thinking what to do about all the information that she has about Philip and Mimi. Going to police will obviously not work, but she is not a person who will give up easily. Then she got the idea: media. If she compiles all the data so that it's easy to understand what happened and whose fault it is, and shares that to newspapers and on social media, news will blow up to such a proportion that it can't be covered up anymore. Sarah was very happy with this plan. She gave herself a task that whenever she finds time, she goes through these files and compiles an easy to follow document, one for each person involved. And those documents will bring an end to these vile people.

Sarah was content with her output for the night: discovering that Aiden and Omega are the same person and coming up with a plan how to handle Philip and Mimi. She decided to call it a night and go to bed.

Sarah slowly opened bedroom door, and found Aiden awake, working on a laptop in the bed. He looked up at her, closed his laptop and kept it on a side table. "Done?"

"Yes." She confirmed and got into the bed.

Aiden observed "You look happy."

"Yes. Very productive." She snuggled next to him.

"Mmm", he acknowledged.

She looked up at him, "You will not ask what I'm working on?"

"No. You will tell me, when you are ready."

"Mmm", Sarah confirmed. She likes that they don't need to talk a lot in order to understand each other. Sarah is confident that Aiden trusts her in the same way she trusts him.

Lying in the bed next to him, she started thinking about their upcoming trip, and then her mind went toward the fact that she started taking contraceptive pills... and she started imagining how it will feel without the condom... Sarah was getting aroused just by thinking about it, and she started fidgeting.

"Is something wrong?" Aiden noticed that she is restless.

She responded by shaking her head vigorously.

"You seem to have trouble getting comfortable..." Aiden thought that she is feeling discomfort due to her period. She did say that it's causing her pain. "How about I massage your back. That might help."

"No, no, no... that would only make it worse." Sarah responded with panic in her voice.

"I read that massages help with discomfort." Aiden did his research and wants to help her if possible.

"Not with this one." Sarah's lips twitched.

"Which one?" Now he was confused.

"Can you stop talking about it?" Sarah sighed. "I'm just excited about our trip to LA. That's it. Now sleep.." She can appreciate his good intentions, but she can't accept it. 'If you start massaging my back it will only get me excited more, OK?'
