It’s Christmas, but Robron finds himself in a horror movie, typical Emmerdale style that leaves no one in peace.

It seemed the drama would revolve around Seb’s return to the village, as Ross’s reaction to the news was fiery.

Seb’s name alone was enough to bring back memories, enough to make Ross feel like something that was once a part of his life had been stolen.

Ross lunged at Robert, his words sharp as knives.

Aaron stepped in to protect him, and thus the battle lines between Aaron and Ross were clearly drawn.

Everyone thought this was the eye of the storm. But no. The eye of the storm came later, silently but viciously. Aaron returned home to find his car’s windshield smashed. His first reaction was anger, suspicion, and a furious outburst directed at Ross. But then everything went awry when Ross had an alibi. This meant there was someone else lurking in the shadows, and that person’s actions weren’t just “causing trouble,” but “terrorism.”

Before Aaron could recover from the shock, the second blow came: the tree outside his apartment was set on fire. The flames blazed as a warning. Aaron suspected Ross again, only to be met with a warning: Ross was still not the culprit. And that moment was the most terrifying, because when you don’t know who’s targeting you, you start to fear everything. You see any sound as someone coming. You start to doubt the people around you. That’s how psychological terrorism works: it doesn’t need to kill you, it just needs to make you feel unsafe.
