Chapter 1

"Akai Ito An invisible thread connects those who are destined to meet... Regardless of time, place or circumstance.... The thread can stretch or tangle, but it will never break." - Ancient Chinese belief. *** Prologue - Sofia Adams As long as I can remember they have always been there. Ethan Hernandez was my neighbor on the left, Nick Williams on the right. We grew up practically together. Each two years apart. Ethan was two when Nick was born and Nick was two when I was born. Which made Ethan and me four years apart. It wasn't much. The three of us became best friends. While Nick always encouraged my craziness Ethan was the voice of reason. We were an even-tempered trio. Inseparable. We were perfect after Anne and Tom joined the group. The years we spent together were definitely the best years of my life. Every day for years on end we would meet in our tree house after school. Ethan taught me to read for endless afternoons, my first kiss was there, and consequently Nick'

Chapter 2

Sofia Adams - February, 2012 I sigh tiredly at the memories and take another sip of the drink in front of me. I try to focus on some point to see if the tears will disperse from my eyes, but I am already getting too dizzy to control my crying. I remember the day Anne moved in and that same day we started to put up our tree house. My dad went crazy with five kids around him. But it was cool. It took two weeks to get it finished and by then we all had a new scar from our construction and our friendship was already cemented in a way that no one could explain. We were what we were. And it was good while it lasted. If I had known how things would be later on I would have enjoyed it more. I rub my arms and hands continually marked by my fingernails and my finger brushes against the scar I had on my fist from trying to hammer a nail into the house without my father seeing. The bartender, George, glares at me trying to ascertain if I was okay. I wasn't. I was as shit as ever. And it was

Chapter 3

Sofia Adams - November, 1997 “Why is this house blue anyway?” asked Anne before she climbed the stairs to our tree house. “I don't know, Ethan picked it out when he was helping Dad paint.” “Ah, I see" Anne said thoughtfully. “What?” I asked. “It's blue because it's his favorite color, everyone knows that, and he always does everything to please you," Anne answered, reaching the top and entering the house. I didn't question, it was true. Ethan was my best friend even at fourteen, he didn't play with Anne and me anymore, we were just little ten year old girls, but I liked that he talked to me about serious things. He was the only one who treated me the same. He knew I was a smart kid and I felt that way around him. He still hung out with Nick and Tom, mostly to play ball or video games, and was getting closer to Nick's older brother Eddie. If I were to admit it, it pissed me off a little too. It was easier when we were all small to like the same things, but now, as they entere

Chapter 4

Sofia Adams - March, 2012 Anne entered my apartment horrified at my condition. I was drunk. Again. Céline Dion was playing the song from Titanic in the background and I had a bottle in my hand and was screaming at the top of my lungs while dancing with my bottle feeling like Rose herself owned the fucking world. “NEAR, FAR, WHEREVER YOU ARE I BELIEVE THAT THE HEART DOES GO ON” “What?” Anne was torn between being scared and confused, and then her eyes fell on my clothes. I was wearing a black dress shirt that was too big to be my own, a samba panty and a suspender. “Are these his?” she asked cautiously, but she knew the answer. They were his. I was packing my bags when I found them buried in a mountain of my clothes. I carefully picked them up in shock flooded by the whirlwind of memories it brought back. I knew I shouldn't smell it. But I did, and then everything became hazy. I just urgently needed to drink or I would go crazy. Which resulted in my current state. Anne looked

Chapter 5

Sofia Adams - March, 2012I used to hate airplanes. I had such a dread that I couldn't fit it in myself.But here I was, crammed into one about to take off towards Las Vegas. Luckily for me it was only a few hours flight.I could handle it, right?I heard the turbines start to gain strength and the plane shudder as it prepared to take off.God in heaven, somebody get me out of here!I took a deep breath and squeezed Anne's hand that was beside me and she smiled at me. Tom was fast asleep next to her and we hadn't even boarded five minutes ago. How could he do it?Anne, practical as always, made sure that we got the middle seats on the plane, so that the three of us could sit together without having to separate. I thanked her internally for this, if I had been alone on a plane I would have freaked out a long time ago and tried to get out, even if only by flushing.I started thinking about our first trip to Vegas in an attempt to distract myself from the growing panic in the pit of my s

Chapter 6

Sofia Adams - March, 2012It was funny how everywhere I went I knew how to find my way around alcohol like no one else. I think my body sniffed the drink, like a super power. I was the Super Drunk.Shit, I think it was already working.I looked to the side and saw a very familiar blonde hair, apparently Anne was sniffing the smell of fun just so she could interrupt. She was Super Righteous.“Kind of early to be drinking, don't you think?” Anne asked, sitting next to me at the bar.“A little early for a lecture, don't you think?” I returned the compliment and then took another sip from my glass. Anne, as well-behaved as ever, ordered an orange juice.“Soso, it's half past eleven in the morning, what are you doing?” she asked.I sighed.“I had a bad dream. This place brings back too many memories," I whispered, rubbing my arms. Saying the words out loud only made it more real.After a minute of silence in which Anne looked intently at the welts on my skin, she spoke up.“I understand,"

Chapter 7

Sofia Adams - March, 2012He was here. I blinked dazedly, taken by shock. It was him right here, in front of me looking at me with mysterious, questioning eyes.Years ago I could tell exactly what he was thinking by the soft curve of his lip or the slight twinkle in his eyes.But not today. He had become a stranger to me.Everything about him was different. I remember he loved to wear plaid flannel shirts, he said it was comfortable, and with his longer hair I used to call him a lumberjack, it suited him.I stared at his formal suit, his short, perfectly cut hair, and his Italian shoes. His posture was tired, as if he carried too much weight every day. His voice was cold, and his eyes... His eyes had no more warmth. So this was what he had become?I couldn't keep looking at him, not after all that had happened.“Did you have something to do with this?” I demanded Anne to avoid him as much as possible. She looked as surprised as I was, but it was Anne, after all.“No, I don't," she ans

Chapter 8

Ethan Hernandez - July, 2003It was Sofia's sixteenth birthday. She looked so beautiful that I could do nothing but stare at her. I had gone away from college this weekend just for her party. Any other girl would be wearing a princess dress to her debutante party.But not mi pequeña. No, not her.Sofia wore a dress that instead of making her look like a princess made her look like a queen. It was flowing and hugged her body that was blooming and showing.Sofia had let her hair grow out since she last cut it at the age of twelve in a weird punk fashion, now it was long and thick and wild. And I couldn't stop thinking about what it would be like to run my fingers through it.Sofia was growing up to be the most beautiful woman I had ever seen.And I wasn't the only one to notice.Lately Nick only knew how to talk about her all the time, I think my best friend and I were in love with the same girl.

Chapter 9

Sofia Adams - March, 2012I was having coffee with Anne and Tom in a coffee shop around the corner from the hotel.Ever since I learned that the devil himself was there, I had avoided being there as much as possible as well.“So, how have you been coping with everything?” Anne asked, as worried as ever.I played dumb.“With everything what? I'm fine, which club are we going to tonight?” I asked, smiling falsely. Anne sighed.“Okay, Anne doesn't want to push you, but I don't care, what the hell was that with Hernandez in the lobby?” Tom asked. “Anne told me that you had some kind of fight years ago and he sort of abandoned us all these years, I would have punched him myself if Anne would have let me, but damn, you looked like you were about to kill the guy”“Lucky for him I didn't” I said quietly just as a car honked nonstop across the street.Tom was still waiting for an answer and this time it was me who sighed.“He wasn't there Tom, he wasn't. We needed him. I needed him. And he was

Chapter 10

Ethan Hernandez - March, 2012I look at the rain from my bedroom window with my thoughts far away. I was thinking about her. It was always her.Every year when I came home I would find a different Sofia. I saw when she was a pest child who was always in trouble and I would take it upon myself to take over her mess. I saw her grow into a rebellious teenager using me as a ladder to escape through her bedroom window.I knew she would run away anyway, I just helped her out so she wouldn't end up twisting a foot trying to get away from her parents to some party. And then I watched her become a woman. And this was the most difficult transformation, because I couldn't be by her side. I had to watch from afar as she walked into adulthood without me.I put my head against the glass and closed my eyes remembering when I saw her again after all these years. If 18 year old Sofia was already tormenting me, this 25 year old Sofia was to finish me off for good. She looked so beautiful that I had no
