Chapter: Chapter 2- Won't Go Away I manage to make it to one of the upstairs bathroom, just a couple of feet away from my next class. I check to make sure there’s nobody else in the enclosed space before locking the door. I move towards the sink and look into the pristine, reflective glass. I breathe in deeply and exhale. “It’s not working,” I mumble to myself. I begin to pace the tiled floor, biting down on my thumbnail as a nervous habit. Okay, so the presumed father of my new daughter, that I did not give birth to, is attending the same school as I, it should be no big deal. Oh, who am I kidding? It’s a humongous deal. First, he leaves his child in my hands, just giving away the precious little girl that I’ve become way too attached to. And now, to make matters worse, he decides to attend the same school as me. What could he possibly be doing here? I run my hands through my brown wavy hair in frustration. There’s only one advantage I have, the ho

According to the doctor she’s one month shy of a year and is already attempting to walk. She’s been crawling around the huge house eagerly, the house that had to undergo a whole lot of baby proofing.

Chapter: Prologue:Goodbye. One word with different meanings. It could mean ‘see you later,’ ‘see you tomorrow,’ or ‘see you in a while.’ It can also mean goodbye forever. For example, when I left my house today and told the housekeeper goodbye I meant it in as a see you after school. Never did I think I’d end up in the situation in which I am now in. You see, I have dealt a lot with that word, goodbye. Six years ago when I bid my parents adieu on their business trip I was expecting them to come back. I didn’t expect a tall man in uniform to come knocking on the mansion’s door with the unbearable news of my parents’ demise. It was at that time that I secluded myself into a shell of the lively girl I used to be. I mean, I’m still the same person but I don’t let many people in. In school I’m known as Khloe ‘the nerd’ Mason. Who cares, I certainly don’t pay attention to the comments that run the rumor mill at school. People make fun of you for
