Chapter 13
Peyton lies on the hospital bed,lifeless and weak. I haven't been able to think properly ever since the moment I saw her on the floor with blood oozing out from her head. I thought I almost lost her, negative thoughts are sucking the soul out of me. My body hurts from my own emotions weighing me down.
I thought that I always had a semblance of control. But I wasn't prepared for this.
My dad had encouraged me to stay strong and had given me many hugs but how was I supposed to stay okay when my friend tried to kill herself?
Was she going through something I don't know?
Everything hurts….

It was not a secret that Adah Fox was the most dramatic woman in the whole Jefferson town.There are some moments which I’d wished to rewind and start all over again partly because I was too embarrassed or my mom had embarrassed me.

Everything was not right, it started this morning When my dad refused to talk with me and ignored my questions even after I yelled at him. Sometimes, he's just plain rude and stubborn. No doubt in mind, he was mad at me for everything.Albeit, his ignorance made me want to do something rebellious and I found myself wishing Peyton would soon wake up so that We can finally move away from this shitty small town where I couldn't enjoy my life to the fullest.The sun has dipped at the horizon, the skies are painted with pink and white clouds from the sunset. I was on my way back to my house aft

Chapter 16The cabinet is open and closed downstairs, the sound of someone frantically preparing breakfast. My brows furrowed, Joy and Saddie would never voluntarily prepare breakfast unless I paid for them and neither did my dad. So, that means it was my MOM!I tugged Ethan by his hand and dashed down the stairs towards the kitchen and Holy Moly. My mother stood in the kitchen and stirred something in the pot. I refused to look at the thing.My dad is across the two vacant seats which I assumed is for Ethan and myself. He was dressed in a white Adidas shirt and khakis, his happy mood attire. I grinned mentally.“Hey Honey,” He smiled, lips thinned and gestured for us to sit.

I've asked those questions when I went to sleep or either when I couldn't concentrate on my economics classes, it wasn't a random question and there was no hell in need to think of those things but I had never stopped thinking even in my mind. Yeah, I know I am that talkative(mentally)Till ten minutes ago, I didn't have any clue but now, I did. It was my father's death glare at Ethan and myself.

Chapter 18I pulled the sheets over my head trying to block out the voices and unwanted feelings especially for the billionaires that live down the street. It has been four freaking days since the night he asked me to marry him, the Memories were still fresh as new. I thought that marriage wasn't supposed to make me happy, No. The thought of getting married scares me a lot, but Ethan proved me wrong, yet, again. How am I supposed to feel good when all I wanted was to jump and shout YES?I did the only rational thing that was appropriate for such situations, I fled and haven't stepped out of the world ever since. Of course, I was exaggerating a bit,I do visit peyton daily and went to work by avoiding the street where he lives.Safe to say, I took the abandoned road.

Who would have thought that I, Winter Fox would wake up with a man on his bed. Apparently, I, the same Winter Fox did that this morning. But did I regret it? No.I still need to figure out why Ethan out of all people wanted me to marry him but his proposal was far too good to turn down.Besides, he wanted to help with Peyton's treatment if I were to marry him. Fifty thousand dollars for the treatment was a huge sum of money and dancing or striping amongst the crowd of drunken town people can't earn that much money so I did the only rational t
