MIA

“Did you have to learn to do everything yourself?” I asked. “After your mom died?”

“Pretty much. My dad wasn’t exactly the nurturing type.” He dried a plate. “Falcon helped though.”

“You’re close with her.”

“She’s the closest I have to family–” He shrugged. “She’s been there for every important moment of my life.”

“That’s nice. Having someone like that.”

He turned to look at me. “You have that now too. With me.”

My breath caught.

He dried his hands and walked over. Pulled out the chair besi

    XAVIERWhen Mia informed me that they had come to her room to threaten her,I stood up immediately and went there. They had the nerve to go to her and tell her all sorts of things. “Did they hurt you?”She remained calm. “Quite the contrary. I gave their clothes some water to calm down. They didn't seem very happy about that and they left here very very angry. I wonder what they'll do next. I wonder if she'll shoot her father next and say I did it. Gosh, they're so stupid.”She still managed to laugh even after everything. It was surprising. I don't remember the last time I laughed willingly. “I'm sorry that I have to put you through all this. You deserve better. By the end of this week, things should be sorted out. I'm really trying my best to see that everything gets done quickly. You shouldn't have been dragged into this at all.” “She’s my roommate. No matter what, I would have gotten the heat. I'm not worried, I'm used to the madness. I just want it to be over. She really want

    MIAThe next day, I felt much more better than the others. My body felt stronger even though I knew that the moment I started to feel good, things would get jinxed. “Can we get pizza? I'm hungry and maybe some ice cream too, banana. Yeah, that would be nice. Something for the heat.”“We both know it's not about the heat, it's about you wanting ice cream. Own it”.I ignored her because I knew she was right but I didn't want to admit it.“There’s a Dominoes beside us. I'll just go there and get it. Don't miss me. Will you be fine alone?”I nodded .“Don’t get caught up with nonsense. I know you're easily distracted.”She flipped me off as she closed the door behind her, leaving me in silence. With nothing else to do, I decided to just lay in bed and enjoy the breeze coming in through the window. That's when I remembered that I had been speaking to Xavier last night and I slept off. I laughed, knowing that he'll bring it up. Esme must have my phone, I have to wait for her to come back

    XAVIERMY calculations were right. Right before dinner,Xerxes and I were back at the house. There was nothing I told them they didn't already know. Madison stalked me and disturbed me for years even though I told her I wasn't interested in her. Never for once did I shower interest in liking her or anything like that, yet she kept going after me. There were a lot of witnesses to it too. Not to count the amount of times Madison attacked Mia about stealing me from her. The questions were nothing serious but they did speak to me about going to court. “Will you still maintain this side when you're in front of a jury? Are you just doing this because she's your girlfriend?” Even if she wasn't, Madison had disturbed me for too long and I was done with it. If it was someone else that was involved with this, I would equally do the same thing. “There they are! I've been waiting all day for you to come home. I have a surprise for you. Do you want to see it?” Kaan was in a happy mood and

    XAVIERHe went silent. “I must warn you not to say anything about my nephew's girl though. He's not like me. He will break your nose. However, we should talk first. We've come to tell you to tell your daughter to drop the claims.” Joshua sighed, interlacing his hands. “And why would I want to do that? The poor girl is pretty shaken up by the whole thing. She got shot by that lu-, by that girl. The only reason she isn't in jail already is because I hear you're helping her with the case and her father is an old partner. Been trying to meet up with him but he's not returning my calls.”“I wonder why.” I murmured. He heard me and then chuckled. “You make me seem like a bad person. You know, I should be mad at you, Xavier. You used my daughter, jilted her when Mia came along and you expected her to go down without a fight? I didn't raise a wimp. She has every right to do what she did.”Since he spoke to me directly, I decided to answer. “You’re right. You didn't raise a wimp. You rai

    XAVIER“She doesn't need a lawyer. She didn't even let me talk. She can handle those people herself. She may not be as helpless as she looked.”I knew Mia wasn't helpless. I just didn't want her to think that she was doing this whole thing alone, that's why I was always involved. When her father called that she had been taken to the station again, my uncle called me to come back home since I was out with Kaan. He asked me not to go to the police station because he didn't want a conflict of interest. I was also a concerned person in the case and me being too involved in Mia's questioning might make Madison look like the victim. “I hear her father is pushing the whole thing, Madison, I mean. He wants Mia in jail. He's pushing hard. Their lawyer is a good friend of mine. He told me the man is paying off some very important people. Apparently, the publicity is doing wonders for him and he's going to try to get the most out of it. If this whole thing goes to court and they get Mia arres

    MIA“What did you go to her house to do?” “To talk to her. I wanted to see if I could call her out on her bullshit and get her to drop the claims once and for all. We both knew she was lying, our friends knew it, Xavier knew it. None of them would believe her. She was jealous and evil, that's what she is. That's why she did it.”They continued. “What happened when you got to her house?”“I knocked on the door. I could hear loud music playing. So I knocked hard. There was no answer. When I tried the door handle, it opened and I let myself in. The house was empty, she wasn't home. That's when I saw the gun in the chair, just laying there.”He wrote something down, covering the notepad with his hands. “Why are your prints on the gun, Mia? They didn't just magically appear there, did they? Why did you touch it?” “I wanted to take it with me. Madison is crazy and I know that she will do anything to make sure she wins this. This whole thing is a fan to her and she's playing you guys re
