I couldn't believe her. That fucking bitch always ruined everything for me, what else did she want? I just wanted to strangle her right now. My anger towards her was becoming worse every time, and I was starting to think she wasn't my sister anymore.My nose was flaring, and my teeth were baring from the emotion heightening me. It was beyond infuriating, and she was becoming less human at this point. She was the cause of these uncontrollable thuds in my chest and unbearable anger. I didn't know what to do with Lindsey. I didn't even know what was she trying to achieve by this. That fucking snake."Excuse me," I mumbled, turning on my heels and squeezing through the crowd.Bodies after bodies kept on colliding onto me as I continuously pushed them away. Once I reached the two massive doors, I swung them open and fastened my pace down the hall.It felt like my heart was going to fall out of my chest from ang

It was already Wednesday and I was sitting on the chair, surrounded by lockers and girls who wore tight, white tees and black shorts. Bending down, I reached for my foot and tied the lace of my shoes. The sweet scent of cologne filled the girl's locker room, as their enthusiastic giggles and absurd gossiping resounded the vicinity.Sitting upright, my eyes flicked to the side when I noticed someone settled beside me. It was Amanda. Her brown hair was tied to a high-ponytail as it swept to the side when she tilted her head to face me. I raised my brows in confusion, as I examined the people around me."Why are you here?" I asked."I'm joining you," she answered with a shrug."I can tell.""It's my first time training as a cheerleader, by the way.""It's okay. Everyone went to that phase."I stood up, approaching the locker in front of me and grabbed my purs

The day after tomorrow, I was strolling down the hallway with Amanda and Emma on both of my sides. They were babbling about their experiences in Kingsley so far while I kept quiet, planning my next move to get ahead of Lindsey.The atmosphere at our house wasn't really great. I could feel the coldness of Mom and Dad towards me and the way they were giving Lindsey all their attention as if to make me realize what I was missing after disappointing them. I was certain Lindsey fed some lies to them so she would look like this angel when she was worse than Satan himself.I wasn't even sure if I should be staying in a toxic environment at home. It was making me detest my existence. Just by thinking about what was going on with my parents and me right now bothered me.I felt a hand suddenly grabbed my forearm as I drifted from my thoughts. Looking at Emma who was now staring at me, weirded out by my silence, I pulled my hand away

She was the purest kid I had ever encountered, and her little giggles were like a melody in my ears. Children rarely approached me, never had this moment ever struck my mind. And I was caught off guard when she suddenly appeared. It made me feel special. But nevertheless, this was the most adorable thing.When I was about to lift the toddler up, I woman called from behind, shaking me out of my thoughts."Dorris," she called, worry filled her tone.She immediately went beside us, and I flitted my eyes up before I stood. The woman, who I think was the mother, lifted the toddler up and embraced her tight. Her gaze landed to me, plastering a look of appreciation as her eyes glimmered."Your daughter is the most adorable kid I've ever met," I complimented, a huge grin crept across my face."Thank you so much. She's randomly talking to strangers and I'm glad she's not hurt." She rocked the toddl

My mouth went dry, and my heart clenched at the thought of what happened to Liam. Up until now, the capability of my parents continued to make me feel unsettled. They could do anything in just one snap, no hindrance nor hesitation. I expected them to be more reasonable, but with them doing that to the person I loved, I didn't know what I was going to think towards them. They'd stooped so low, why did they have to do that?I plastered a blank expression, a lump formed in my throat, as thoughts swirled in my head I almost felt dizzy."I'm sorry I told you this. I just can't bear hiding such a thing to you," Emma said, looking down at her fidgeting hands."Is Liam still in jail?" I asked, my voice almost cracked from the emotions surging in."Wait, what are you guys talking about?" Amanda interfered as her brows knitted together in confusion."Kourtney's ex." Emma shrugged, her attention was
