Chapter 21

Leah's P.O.V

I was so lost staring at him that I didn't even realize he had finished packing the books.

He paused, staring at me. “Hello?” he said, leaning in slightly.

My breath hitched and I sat on the floor without realizing it. “Hey… hi… what?” I stammered.

“I just asked if you're new here,” he said.

“Y-yes. How did you know?” I asked.

“You're clumsy,” he responded.

I frowned. Why does this sound familiar? “I'm not clumsy,” I said.

He stood up and stretched out his hand to me. “I

I can't follow a stranger to an unknown place, even if it's in school. I've read st

  • Crossing the Line    Chapter 20: The Boy I Bumped Into

    Chapter 20Leah's P.O.VHe had actually left the car without waking me up—and worse, he locked the door. Is this how Mom expects me to come back home alive?Mom had said she spoke with Sky, and he promised to take care of me. I almost didn't even last one day under his care.“You accidentally locked the car?” I asked with a dry laugh. It's funny, and at the same time not funny.Sky's P.O.VI could tell from her laugh that she didn't believe a word I just said. How do I explain to her without sounding stupid?**Flashback**We arrived and parked in the garage. Barry came out first, and went to carry some luggage in the boot.I locked my phone screen and got down too. “Let me carry it,” I said, reaching to take the luggage from him, but he declined. “It's fine. Besides, there's another in the boot,” he said and passed me the key.“Okay,” I said and after taking the bags, locked the boot and the car doors. Leaving the garage, I closed it behind me.After a while of arranging my things, I

  • Crossing the Line    Chapter 19: Locked Inside

    Chapter 19Sky's P.O.VI never expected Leah to be such a crybaby. Was she actually crying because she was leaving for school? How annoying.At first I felt it was because of me, but at a second thought, even if I hadn’t said we should leave today, we would still be leaving tomorrow. I even made it easier for her by leaving today. That way, she can get over it earlier. I'm sure she would've gotten over it by tomorrow.I took out my handkerchief and unwillingly handed it to her. Seeing that she didn't take it after a few seconds, I glanced at her.“Do you want it or not?” I asked.Leah's P.O.VI hesitated. ‘Do I want it?’ I asked myself.I didn't want to take what was his, but I needed it, so I reluctantly took it and wiped my tear-streaked face and runny nose. This is embarrassing. I must look so messy right now.My eyes were puffy and felt heavy from crying, and I decided to close them for a while until…Sky's P.O.V“Fuck!” Barry cursed and took a rough turn, the car jerking sideways

  • Crossing the Line    Chapter 18: Forced Departure

    Chapter 18Sky's P.O.VThroughout breakfast, I noticed that Leah kept sending glares my way. How disrespectful. Did she think she was a little princess who could do whatever and look down on whoever she wants?I decided to wait for her outside her room, because she's willful and I'm not sure if she'd open her door. We have a lot to discuss, and I'll be more than happy to show her where she stands and teach her manners. Leah's P.O.VI turned to go back downstairs before he could see me, but unfortunately, he already saw me. “Where are you running off to?” he said.I quickly turned around and pretended like I wasn't about to run. I decided to take the bull by the horn and face my fears.I walked to him — no, to my room… and unlike my expectation, he didn't step away.“What do you want?” I asked, looking up at him.He flicked my forehead — sharp, unexpected and I gasped in disbelief, covering the spot. “What is wrong with you?!” I exclaimed angrily and raised my hand to hit him back, b

    Chapter 17Yoyo's P.O.VDad informed me that he was getting married soon, and because my soon-to-be little stepsister was celebrating her birthday, Dad said I should give her a gift.I wasn't good at picking gifts, so I let Josh help me pick one because he has a sister in elementary school, so he was better at it. I went to pick it up at his place, so Dad didn't know the gift wasn't handpicked by me.That evening after they registered their marriage, Dad wanted to take her home because it was already late, but I wholeheartedly offered to drive my new mom home.She had been my friend since I was nine, and now that she and Dad were married, I couldn't have been happier to have her as my mother.This was my first time going to her home, so I relied on her instructions for directions. I parked the car by the roadside and walked with her down the street and stopped in front of the door. Since I had to go back home, I didn't follow her inside.“Say hello to my little sister for me,” I said.

    Chapter 16Leah's P.O.VMy pulse thudded in my ears as I climbed the stairs. I neither know how to be a big sister, nor how to put my words. I’m not sure if I was excited or not, but I’m certain it wasn’t a bad feeling. Getting to his room, I knocked, but there was no response. I pressed my ear against the door, and I could hear shooting sounds from a game. I decided to push the door open, but it was locked from inside. “Hey, it’s time for dinner,” I said. The sound paused, and I repeated, “It’s time for dinner.” The next second, the sounds resumed—this time, even louder. The sudden blast of gunfire made my shoulders jerk“That was rude,” I frowned. I went back to the dining room and sat down.“Were you able to talk to him?” Mom asked.Wouldn't saying no mean that I couldn’t sweettalk a child to having dinner? “Yeah, he said he’s not hungry,” I said.Ehiana’s P.O.V.Dave and I hadn’t seen each other in a while. Work had swallowed most of his time, and I knew he was carrying his ow

    Chapter 11 Leah's P.O.V Just as I came out of the restroom, I quickly went to the sink to wash my hands. Beside me was someone fixing her makeup in front of the mirror. “Leah?” she called. I didn't expect that she would want to talk to me. “Joan,” I said flatly, sparing her a quick glance. Joan

    Chapter 12 Leah's P.O.V I stared at Mom, demanding further explanation. I had always wanted a sibling—just not a stepsibling. “Calm down, honey. Technically, he's your soon-to-be step brother,” Mom said, but this explanation made absolutely no sense to me. “Dave and I will be getting married,”
