MY STEP SISTER'S MARRIAGE: I AM HER SUBSTITUTE Chapter 41
Clara’s POVI stood outside Alice’s house, hugging myself tightly, shivering,not because of the cold, but because of everything I was about to do.The evening wind blew against my skin, but it wasn’t as sharp as the look Alice gave me when she opened the door.That look cut straight through me.Like she’d been waiting to see me fall.Like she was already tired of whatever words I had come to say.I didn’t bother to dress up.No makeup. No fancy clothes. No polished lies.Just messy, tired hair that hadn’t seen a brush since yesterday.A worn-out sweater that used to be my comfort.And trembling hands that wouldn’t stay still.I had walked in broken. On purpose.For once, I wanted to be real.A small part of me hoped… maybe she would look past everything.And trust me.She didn’t.She sat across from me in the kitchen. Arms crossed, her back pressed against the wall like she was expecting a punch.Her guard was up.Her eyes cold.I sat down slowly, heart pounding, mouth dry,I said eve

Alice’s POV Some nights feel like they never end just stretch into each other like shadows refusing to pull back. This was one of them. I stood in the hallway long after Ryan left, my back against the closed door, arms crossed tight like I was trying to hold myself together. I could still hear the way his voice cracked. The way he said her name like he didn’t know what it meant anymore. Clara. It used to be simple. She was my sister. Then she became the lie that stood between me and my children. Now? She was something else. Something dangerous and desperate. I walked to the kitchen. The mug of tea I’d made earlier was cold, untouched. I didn’t bother reheating it. I just poured it out and ran the tap until it turned warm again. Safe. That was the word Aaron had used. He’d named a star after it. It wasn’t dramatic. It wasn’t loud but it cracked something open in me. He hadn’t called me Mom yet—not once but he trusted me with the stars and that had to count for something. Th

Alice’s POV The morning was gray and still when I woke up. Not the kind of still that brings peace but the kind that sits in your chest, unmoving. Heavy. I found Aaron curled up in a corner of the couch, the space map Mera made for him folded neatly under his cheek. His hair was tousled, the way Ryan’s used to get when he was nervous or lying. Mera was still asleep upstairs. I could hear the slow thump of her feet turning under the covers, the squeak of her bunny tucked beneath her arm. The house was quiet, but it was the kind of quiet that made me hold my breath. I walked past the couch and into the kitchen, trying not to disturb either of them. The kettle hissed to life, and for a moment, I just stared at the cabinets, unsure of what I was even doing anymore. Aaron was here. That should’ve been everything. And yet, it wasn’t. The reunion was happening in fragments—small looks, half-formed words, hesitant touches that felt like apologies neither of us knew how to give. He was

Clara’s POV I’ve been waking up to silence. No Aaron humming in the next room, no familiar weight of someone moving around the apartment. Just me, and the long, flat quiet that stretched like a wound. I sat up slowly, the blanket slipping off my shoulders. The ache in my spine wasn’t from sleep. It was from the way I’d curled around myself last night, trying to make something out of nothing. Trying to feel less hollow. My hands drifted to my stomach. Still flat, still pretending. No bump, no heartbeat echoing inside me but I held the lie close like it could still save me, if I held it tightly enough, it would become true. Maybe it wasn’t even about Ryan anymore, maybe it never really was. Maybe it was about not being the one left behind, not being the one discarded again. Because that’s what Alice had done. She came back, and the whole world tilted toward her. Aaron, who used to cling to me after every nightmare, now looked at me with doubt behind his lashes. Ryan, who had o

Alice’s POV The first few days felt like walking across a frozen lake, afraid each step would send us crashing through. Aaron still didn’t speak much. He kept to himself, retreating to corners of the apartment like he was afraid of taking up too much space. Mera, on the other hand, floated throug

Aaron’s povSometimes, I pretended my head was a spaceship.When it got too loud with Clara yelling, Victoria’s voice like knives, the rules I couldn’t keep straight I’d close my eyes and imagine I was floating far away. Past the moon, past Mars. Out to where no one could follow me, where it was qu

Alice’s povThere was a quiet kind of terror in hope.Not the fear that came from threats or violence—that kind of fear was obvious, easy to name. But hope? Hope was dangerous, hope was waiting for something good and knowing, deep in your bones, that you might not get it. That they could take it fr
