CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED ONE
~KAHLAN AND THE CASTLES~
The flight wasn't long. My plan was to stay at my father’s home. After all I was still the owner and the house was still on the market. I carried one bag with me, but it could wait to be dropped off. I wasn’t sure of Emett’s condition, and I wanted to be there as soon as possible. I took the first cab I saw after exiting the airport. Before I knew it, I was at the hospital, staring into a window at a sleeping Emett, with tubes and wires hooked up all around him. My first reaction was to run in, demand answers to my questions, to fuss, yell… but seeing him like that, I just wanted to break down and cry. He was the last link to my old self. He was my first real friend, my first kiss, and my first dance how could I let him go? I dropped my black bag to the side of me, bringing my hands up to my face. A silent sob escaped as tears came flooding out.

When I opened the door to my old home, I expected to have flashes like before, to remember all the things that were bad. But this time, it was different. I saw all the good. I remember Christmas with my mom and dad when they bought me an easy bake oven so I could cook like my mom. And I remembered Angela helping make cupcakes in the kitchen to support Emett in his hopes of becoming a Junior Prom King. And dad used to read me books so I could fall asleep up in my bedroom. Wow, all the good memories.The furniture was gone. I had planned to spend the night, and be out by dark, but did I really want to lie on the floor and smell the hint of bleach and new carpet. There was a knock at the door. I scrunched my face together. I was sure that the kids from before had left. I made my way to the door, and it flashed before me. The night that Ryan came to my door and murdered my family. That night the door was

~BROOKE AND SANDINO~ "I’m back," Doctor Laura Cliff said as she walked into Brooke's room. She lay on a bed set in the center of the room. The brightness of outside shined in. Brooke was thankful that the windows were tinted and kept anyone from staring into the room. She felt ashamed of her body lately. She understood that she was carrying a child, but everything about her seemed to blow up. Sometimes, she could swear that she didn’t look like herself. The doctor would come in and look between her legs, making sure everything looked okay. It was a bit humiliating. She made sure that Sandino stayed above her head. She didn’t want him to think she growing ugly. Hell, if she felt like it and thought it, it was likely that he was doing the same thing. The only thing that she looked forward to when coming to the appointments wa

~THE LOVETT’S~Leslie sat at the dining room table, hands overlapping each other as she stared out the window. She hadn’t heard form her son all night, and she was starting to become worried. She understood that they weren’t on the best of terms, but he could at least call and check in. She shook her head. Sandino was a man now. A man expecting a child, yet here she was, worrying about him as if he couldn’t take of himself. He had gone out and gotten a job. That was a stepping-stone in growing up. But there was still so much more. If only he could see. If only she could make him see. She felt worthless. How did her son’s life turn out like this? She found herself shuffling down the hall, her body and eyes tired. She tucked herself into bed, thinking that maybe Sandino got caught up with friends. She couldn’t afford to sit awake all night. She had work tomorrow as well, and each day, each hour

~SANDINO AND BROOKE~ “So what did Kahlan want to talk to you about today?” Sandino asked Brooke shrugged.“Nothing really,” she answered. “I think it was her way of indirectly checking up on me.” Sandino smiled. He was still so surprised that Brooke and Kahlan were playing nice. At this point, it seemed to be less of an act, but the real thing. They were acquaintances on their way to becoming friends. Sandino wouldn’t believe it if he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes.“I told you she was really sweet.” Brooke smiled. When she saw Kahlan, she didn’t see anything sweet. Kahlan acted as if she were above everyone. Things should be all about her. How was it that Brooke was the one with the secret, yet Kahlan cried about how h

~THE HANCOCKS~“Amy! Mya!” Paul screamed from the bottom of the stairs, his eyes staring at the top, waiting to see the girls faces appear. They both stared at him. Mya face showed her annoyance while Amy looked curious. “Can you two come downstairs for a moment.” They came down slowly. Mya was in front, being the leader while Amy followed by her sisters example. Paul made the mistake of having Kate over, which told that Paul knew everything that had taken place with Olivia. He had trouble sitting them down, and telling the truth, so in his eyes Kate was help that he needed. She had explained things better than he did, but it revealed that he had lied to his children multiple times. Everything was out in the open. Now, he just wanted to be forgiven. His eyes went to his wife, being sure that Julia would not leave his side. She gave him a forced smile of encouragement. He felt bad that Julia

~DAMON AND JUSTIN~ Damon knew he was going out on a limb showing up at Kahlan’s place, but he just wanted to check on her, see if she was doing okay. He was walking up to the house, just as Justin was leaving the front porch. The men stopped and looked at each other. They hated each other because they loved Kahlan. Damon knew it was only a matter of time before Justin would step up and try to play the role of boyfriend. He was snake. Justin knew that Damon was going to continue to pursue Kahlan, trying to win her back. He didn’t seem like the type to sit around and lose so easily. He hated the power that Damon had over Kahlan, and he didn’t understand it. He just hoped that Kahlan was smarter than that, that she could see through him, and realize she didn’t need Damon Meir.“Is she in there?&rd

~SANDINO AND BROOKE~ Sandino had to admit. It bothered him that Kahlan seemed to want Justin. He wondered if she had ever thought of him in the way she was thinking about Justin. He shook his head. He couldn’t think that way. He had Brooke, who was rushing over to him. He shook his head again, ready to fake a smile.“Please understand, I don’t want you to hate me,” Brooke rambled. He scrunched his brows together, squinting down at her, in confusion. She held on to his arm tightly, and the look of fear and worry was on her face. “I don’t mean to make excuses, but I had no choice. I was in a very complicated position.”“Complicated position?” Sandino started. Wait, was going on? What was she talking about?
SECRETS CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED NINE
~KAHLAN AND JUSTIN~ I stood at my locker, putting away my books when Justin walked up to me. I could feel his presence before I saw her. He stood behind me."Hey," he said. I turned around to look at him. We hadn't talked since what happened in my pool, and since I blurted all my thoughts and feelings at the lunch table. It seemed that our time had now come. I was ready to talk to him and it seemed that he was ready to talk to me."Hi," I said quietly."How are you?" he asked."I'm good," I answered, "You?""Not so much," He responded, putting his hands into his pockets. I looked at him. He did look a mess, as if he were losing sleep
