Almost at the same day Roland's sister and Archer's aunt Olivia and her husband Emilio had a daughter named Naomi and after few hours Archer's sister Karissa gave birth to little boy named Arron.
Kasanovas were already a big family. Archer was happy for his relatives and tried to be happy himself if even it was hard sometimes. His heart yearned for tenderness and love, someone's friendship, he wished to feel what he never felt before. Archer always remembered Asia's words: "Somewhere is a person who will love your soul like I do. Just believe in that, Archer, and miracle will happen."
"And where are you? Why I can't meet you now when I am still young?" - Archer thought playing chess. It was already a late night, the most favorite Archer's time.

Soon Archer noticed his father's ghost floating towards him.
- Dad! What a surprise! - Archer rejoyced hugging his father.
- Hello, my son! It's so good to see you! I missed you...
- Dad! What a surprise! - Archer rejoyced hugging his father.
- Hello, my son! It's so good to see you! I missed you...
Suddenly Archer makes a decision to tell his father a truth. He knows that's only chance to do it as if he'll change his mind this conversation will never happen.
- Dad... - Archer looked at his father. - I have to tell you something.
- What, my son? - Roland looked questioning.
- I changed family rules. My sons will decice which one of them will be next heir... Because... - Archer fell his eyes. - Because I don't want they would feel unhappy like me.
- What do you mean, Archer? What's wrong? - Roland became worried.
- I'm gay, dad... - Archer sighed. - I don't have any feelings for women. When I have to make love with them I always do that because I have to do that as I am heir. In the beginning I thought I'm just not interested in romantic relationship, but when I met a caterer and he complimented me... I realized that I want pull him in my embrace and kiss him like crazy. I felt so embarrassed and surprised at the same time. I didn't dare to tell about it to anyone, only Rosalie knows the truth... So... - he made a short pause. - I won't that my sons would experience the same, because to live hiding your nature is the same like to live in hell, - Archer looked at his father's eyes.
Roland looked at his son long time feeling how anger overhelms him. Archer noticed that his father's body became red like a flame.

- And you're telling me this only now?! - Roland raised his voice.
- Sorry, dad... I couldn't to tell you that earlier...
- I'm your father! I have never had secrets from you and your siblings! - Roland scolded Archer. - You hurt me, Archer!
- Dad... I had to be a heir...
- We could change it! Maybe Robert and Walter would have changed you! But sadly no one invented the drugs for the stupidity and cowardice, so if you decided to play a martyr, continue to pretend it!

Archer gave a deep sigh.
- Dad... Please...
Roland disappeared melting in the wall.
- But I've changed the rules, dad! - Archer exclaimed laughing nervously. - Dad! - he called his father one more time, but anyone didn't answer.
- Dad, it's ridiculous! - Archer shook his head standing alone outside. But he knew that his father was right. He had to tell the truth to his father when he was alive and maybe they really would be able to change the situation. Now it was too late. Archer had what he had and it was only his fault.
