LOGINCHAPTER 7
MIRA The day was cold ,I guess the rain made it happen, normally you wake up to a sunny warm day in crescent Ave,but today it was cold ,I felt it and shivered while standing in front of the balcony.I wondered how it was going to be today in school, awkward maybe . "Mira "I heard dad call out my name pulling me out of my complicated illusion "Hey dad "i replied faking a smile "You ready ? I gotta drop you off at school and then make a next stop at pops to grab something"he said smiling and coming into the car where I was already in. "Gotcha pa " I replied understanding what he meant ,I knew he wanted me to understand he was going to be late if we didn't get moving . He drove off. **** The road was quiet ,me and Pa were the only sound I heard ,then the car stopped . "I think it broke down amor ,lemme check on em" pa said and left the car . Its been minutes and It was getting late "Why don't I walk pa ,besides my school is over there "I said pointing at the direction leading to my school "Are you sure mi vida ?" Pa asked looking worried "Sure pa ,I will be fine "I replied and started walking "Bye Pa "i waved and he waved back at me . Just as I was about leaving a car stopped close to that of my dad's ,a woman stepped out ,she was a skinny hot cake with blonde hair and huge boobs ,she was wearing a red short gown ,a pair of black hills and expensive jewelries,she was so cool and sexy . "Need some help ?"she asked "No I think I got it "mr Dennis replied "Oh am sorry Mr ....?"she said waiting for my dad to reply before she continues "Dennis,mr Dennis"pa replied "Ok Mr dennis I am sorry but this is crescent Ave,we help each other ok? So move aside and let me help you fix that "she smiled and walked to the car front ,after some minutes she was done "Done Mr Dennis,go try it "she said holding both hands on her waist "Oh ok"pa replied I watched him walk into the car and start the engine of the car and I could see him smiling "Wow it worked "he said smiling and looking happy "I knew it would "she replied PA was so happy that he hugged her unexpectedly "Am sorry ..I ...I ..I didn't mean to ..I was just..um" pa was still talking when she Interrupted him "Mr Dennis it's ok ,I was just helping and hugging is normal,dont make it a big deal "she replied and started walking to her car She started her car and drove off. "Damn I didn't even get to know her name "mr Dennis said pulling his hair not noticing his daughter who was standing there smiling at him. "Pa" I said smiling and for no reason I started laughing "Princess,you were suppose to be in school"mr Dennis said trying to be bold "I was until I saw what happened" Mira replied "She was cool miha "mr Dennis said and walked into the car "Hop in miha "mr Dennis added "Ok papi" Mira replied and walked into the car . ***** MIRA The hallway was empty ,I walked straight to my locker and I brought out some book , after locking it I turned only to meet max staring at me ,his hands over my head pressed on my locker. "You scared me "I said "I wasn't expecting you to be scared "max replied and bent towards her He was so close to her ,not too far from her lips ,Mira felt a shiver run down her spine,they both locked eyes ,he was sweating and his buttons were open revealing his bare chest ,the sweat drop made it look so tempting. So tempting that you would want to lick it off his bare chest . I watched him while he spoke ,I couldn't hear a word he uttered ,I was cold and he was hot . He came closer to me ,this time using one hand to rub my chin ,he looked at me with hunger in his eyes as if he wanted to eat me ,I was calm ,I was lost and fuck I felt it, I WAS WET!! I didn't know when I bit my lower lips "You want me ,Mira "max whispered very close to my left ear I felt weird,I wanted him to touch me ,I wanted him more than anything that moment. "Say it Mira "I heard him say in a demanding tone I looked away , feeling ashamed "Get off me max "i pushed him away,I knew I would regret it but fuck I cant let him get to me that easy. "I know you don't mean that "he replied "She said get off her max"I heard a familiar voice I turned and there was Ethan with a folded fist "Or what ?bro what's up with you ?"max replied then bent to forcefully kiss me while staring at his brother I kept pushing and pushing and God I wanted him but I also didn't want to hurt Ethans feelings. I heard a sound ,it was Ethan's first landing on Max face "Fuck bro" "She said get off" Ethan repeated then turned to me "are you ok Mira?" He asked looking at me with worries in his eyes I started crying,I knew I was not crying cause of the situation,I was crying because I knew what was happening I was in love with both of them and I couldn't face it. Max left us. Ethan tried to console me. "Am sorry mira "he said wiping off my tear. Sofia and Rachel rushed to the Scene "We heard some sound and decided to check in and know what happened" Sofia said rushing over to me and hugging me "Bro I hope you didn't hurt my baby "Rachel asked Ethan "No I didn't ,it's complicated "Ethan said then stood up to leave "I should go meet up with Max "he added. I watched Ethan leave then turned to the girls "Am fucked "I said ***** Sofia looked at me , waiting for me to say something,I just sat down facing downwards . "Girl you gotta speak up "Rachel said breaking the silence "Ok I was getting bored anyway "Sofia added looking at me I looked up at them "Ok I know it sounds stupid but firstly I think ....I think I have feelings for Ethan and max at the same time I don't wanna face that shit "I said finally coming out "Damn , hitting on two of em is a badass move bitch "Rachel said lighting a smoke "Common Rachel,she tryna be plain with us ,and you actin' all unserious,you should be more supportive babe"Sofia replied then she grabbed my hands and looked at me "Babe..its normal to hit on two niggas k? But...two brothers with the same face ain't a good thing ,I think you gotta talk about em ,I mean explain how you feel for em both,is there anything different?" Sofia asked looking at me wearing a smile "I mean...I like being around Ethan ,I like his smile ,his personality,his everything and fuck he's caring girl...I feel like he is perfect and gentle you know...but ....max...."I stopped and looked at her ,she was listening attentively "Max feels different,he feels like desire ,I feel hot and....wet when am around him,I love his body ,his voice ,his sweat.."i was still talking when they interrupted me "His sweat!!!!!!" They both said in unison "Yea...I just...I just like the way he is around me "I said looking down and touching my hair in a shy way "Wait...Mira what exactly do you think about when he is around you?" Racheal asked "I donno..I think sex "Mira replied "Definitely lust"Rachel said "I agree with Rachel,I think you love Ethan but still want max to warm your bed "Sofia teased "I guess I do "Mira replied her "Look Mira ,you gotta choose one person ok ,just take your time while doing it baby "Sofia said holding her hands and looking at her face "I will "Mira said smiling back at her "Just make sure you fuck max and then dump him before dating Ethan "Rachel said putting her smoke off and standing up to leave "Rachael" Sofia called her "What!?"she replied "I was stating fact baby"Rachel added "You know what let's go back to class am tired "Mira replied and they walked back . ****** MIRA "Dear diary, I know it's crazy,but I think am crushing on two brothers,crazy right,well Sofia and Rachel made sure I explained it to them and also made me understand that I was gonna have to choose one of em ,I feel peaceful with Ethan but with Max it's different,I hope I make the right choice Bye diary. I dropped my pen and closed my book ,then looked at my window hoping to see Max but I didn't ,I sighed and just as I was about to turn away I saw him staring right back at me was max ,shirtless and dripping like someome who just came out of the water. "Mira"I heard him say.Chapter 74: Ethan coming home didn’t feel real at first.The hospital discharge papers were signed, the doctor had given a long list of instructions, and Mr. Edward had insisted on driving slowly—as if even the road itself needed to be careful with his son.But the moment Ethan stepped into the house, everything shifted.It wasn’t the same as before.It was quieter.Softer.More… careful.Mrs. Edward had already prepared everything.Extra pillows. A comfortable spot on the couch. Medicine neatly arranged. Water within reach.“You’re not going upstairs,” she said firmly.Ethan gave a tired smile. “I figured.”Mr. Edward placed a steady hand on his shoulder. “You focus on healing. Nothing else.”Ethan nodded, though his eyes drifted briefly toward the door.Like he was expecting someone.He didn’t have to wait long.Later that afternoon—A knock.Mrs. Edward opened the door.And there she was.Mira.She stood there, slightly hesitant, her hands clasped together like she wasn’t sure if
Chapter 73: The hospital had a way of stretching time.Minutes didn’t feel like minutes. Hours didn’t feel real. Everything existed in a quiet, suspended space where hope and fear sat side by side, refusing to separate.Mira stood just outside the ward, her fingers curled tightly around the strap of her bag.She hadn’t moved much since they arrived.Even after the doctor had come out to say the surgery was over… that Ethan was stable… that he was alive—Alive.That word should have brought relief.And it did.But not enough.Because stable didn’t mean awake.And alive didn’t mean okay.Her chest still felt tight.Her heart still hadn’t slowed down.She swallowed hard and pushed the door open.The room was quiet.Too quiet.Ethan lay on the bed, still.Machines surrounded him, their soft beeping the only sign that time was still moving forward.For a second, Mira couldn’t take another step.This wasn’t how she had imagined seeing him.Not like this.Not quiet.Not motionless.Her eyes
Chapter 72: The afternoon sun hung low in the sky, casting long shadows across the street as Ethan stepped out of the flower shop.He adjusted his grip on the bouquet, careful not to crush the delicate petals.They were her favorite.He had taken longer than expected choosing them—standing there, going back and forth between colors, asking the florist unnecessary questions, overthinking every little detail.Because it wasn’t just flowers.It was for Mira.And with everything she had been going through lately, he wanted it to be perfect.Ethan smiled to himself as he walked down the pavement.He could already picture her reaction.The way her eyes would soften.The way she’d pretend it wasn’t a big deal, even though it clearly meant something to her.He replayed their texts in his head.“Be careful.”He chuckled lightly under his breath.“I will,” he muttered, almost like he was answering her again.Cars passed by in a steady rhythm. The city felt alive but normal—nothing unusual, not
CHAPTER 71Morning came slowly for Mira.Not in the way mornings usually did—with sunlight stretching lazily across her room or birds chirping like nothing in the world had changed—but in a heavy, quiet way. The kind that pressed against her chest before her eyes even opened.She stared at the ceiling for a long time before moving.Her thoughts were tangled.The words from the night before echoed over and over again.She’s pregnant.Her dad’s voice had been proud. Miss Katie’s smile had been soft, almost nervous… hopeful.And Mira?Mira had smiled too.But it hadn’t reached her eyes.When she finally got out of bed, everything felt slightly off—as if she was walking through a version of her house that didn’t completely belong to her anymore.She pulled on a hoodie, not caring about how she looked, and stepped out of her room.Each step down the stairs felt heavier than the last.And then she saw her.Miss Katie sat on the couch, legs tucked neatly under her, a mug resting in her hands
Chapter 70 — The evening air felt soft as Mira and Lisa walked back home from the beach.Their slippers dragged lightly against the pavement, sand still clinging stubbornly to their ankles. Lisa looked… lighter. Not the forced lightness she used to wear like a mask—but something real this time.“So,” Mira nudged her playfully, “you and Max, huh?”Lisa’s cheeks flushed instantly. “Don’t start.”“I’m not starting anything,” Mira grinned. “I just want details.”Lisa laughed quietly, hugging herself. “He was… different. Not playful. Just real.”Mira nodded. “That’s Max when he actually cares.”Lisa glanced at her. “You think this can work?”“I think,” Mira said thoughtfully, “you just have to not mess it up this time.”Lisa winced slightly. “Fair.”They both laughed.For a moment, everything felt… normal again.The Living RoomAs they stepped into the house, laughter greeted them.Warm. Familiar. Unexpected.Mira paused.Her dad, Dennis, was sitting on the couch beside Katie, both of the
CHAPTER 69The days after the beach felt… different.Not dramatic. Not overwhelming.Just quietly new.Lisa woke up the next morning staring at her ceiling, replaying everything.Max’s voice.His careful words.The way he had paused before reaching for her hand.It hadn’t been rushed. It hadn’t been like before.It was real.And that terrified her just as much as it excited her.Downstairs, the house was already alive with soft morning noise. Plates clinked in the kitchen. Mira’s laughter drifted through the hallway.Lisa hesitated at the top of the stairs.Before, she would’ve run down, loud and carefree, demanding attention.Now… she took a breath and walked slowly.Mira spotted her first.“Well,” she said, grinning, leaning against the counter, “someone looks like they didn’t sleep.”Lisa rolled her eyes, but a smile tugged at her lips. “I slept.”“Barely,” Mira teased.Katie glanced between them knowingly. “Should I ask, or should I pretend I don’t already know?”Lisa groaned. “Pl
CHAPTER 15A scream was heard.As they rushed towards the source of the scream, the sound of their footsteps echoed off the walls. Rachel's eyes followed the cleaner's trembling finger, and her heart sank like a stone. There, floating face-down in the water, was Mira. Her long hair was spread out a
CHAPTER 14Sofia came back with the drinks, her hands carrying two glasses filled with colorful liquid. She handed Mira a glass, her eyes scanning the crowd with a smile. The music was pulsating, and the lights were flashing, creating an electric atmosphere that was impossible to resist. She looked
CHAPTER 13MIRAAs the evening rolled around, Mira found herself rummaging through her closet in search of the perfect dress for the party. She wasn't exactly thrilled about attending, but she didn't want to let Sophia down, so she was determined to make an effort. The closet was a mess, with cloth
CHAPTER 12SOFIASophia stood in the kitchen with her parents, the aroma of freshly cooked breakfast filling the air. Her mom was expertly flipping pancakes, while her dad was setting the table. Sophia smiled as she cracked eggs into the skillet, feeling grateful for these quiet morning moments wit
