? Adrian's POV ?I was running hard in the forest and he was coming right behind me. I was sweating and tired but I have to keep on running or else I will die. I looked back briefly and noticed he was closer and I continued running. I almost ran into a tree but I continued. "Stop running. There's no choice for you", he shouted but I didn't listen.I continued running and I saw Aiden running towards me from the right."Continue running, Adrie. I will distract him."I shook my head. "No. I can't-""Promise me!", He shouted making me flinch."I promise", I said and went back to my running."I love you, Adrie. Just know that", I heard him shout. Just like two seconds later, I heard gunshot and looked back. The scene in front of me shocked me. Frank shot my twin brother."No!", I shouted and wanted to run back but I remembered I promise Aiden to continue running. I stood still not knowing what to do. A part of me wanted to go

? Adrian's POV?️"Good afternoon, Miss Kendall", the lawyer greeted as soon as we got into her office. We replied her greetings and she asked us to sit down which we did. "I'm sorry for any inconveniences but it has to be done. Miss Kendall?""Just call me Adrian.""Okay. Do you know where Karen's mother is cause we need her.""What do we need her for?"She stood up from her sit and started pacing around. "Well, I had this weird feeling in the pit of my stomach that we need to get to her. You said something happened the day Karen died that you don't remember, right?""Yes. I have tried really hard to remember but it's not just coming to me", I replied still confused.She said and waited a minute like she was thinking about something and continued pacing. "Well, I found out that Frank divorced her 2 years after Karen's death and since then, nobody seems to know where she is. Do you know of any other member of their family?"I thought

? Adrian's POV?"Are you sure you want to do this?",  Dad asked again for what felt like the thousandth time. "Dad", I groaned. "I said it's okay", I replied him again like I have been doing since when the lawyer  said she found Karen's mother's location. "I'm just worried about you, that's all.""Don't give yourself unnecessary high blood pressure.""It's my duty to worry about you, princess.""Okay, I get it. Aiden would be there with me so don't think of coming with me."His face fell. I knew he had been thinking of going to Karen's mum's with me but I don't want that.  I was okay with only Aiden going with me. Anthony, Adam and Melissa also insisted but I felt like I'm bothering them with my personal life. I don't want then worrying about me too much when they have their own lives to live. "Okay but Erian and Ruby are going with you too."I groaned.  "Dad, must we go everywhere with bod

? Melissa's POV ?It was very boring here at home. I really miss Adrian and I haven't seen her since she left to look for Karen's mother yesterday. I decided to take a walk around the neighborhood and visit the park down the street. I really miss my parents. We were always going to one place or the other on every Saturday. Mum usually call it family day and I totally agreed with her. We were always together on Saturdays but unfortunately, they died on a Saturday too. I got to the park and sat on a long bench and looked around the park. I saw a little girl with her parents and I felt jealous. Even though my aunt and Uncle are taking good care of me,  it still can't be compared to my parents' care. I noticed tears coming from me eyes and I quickly wiped them off. I closed my eyes for a bit and drifted off to dreamland. ???"Did you enjoy your day?", dad asked on our way home from shopping at the mall. "Yes, dad. It w

? Melissa's POV ?It was Friday and school has already closed. I have an appointment with the doctor and I suddenly remembered I am not going there alone.

And now Mrs Kendall wants to go there with me. I got out of the class after the Bell has been rung and I saw the three girls that once bullied me until the intervention of my sweet best friend. They stood there just looking at me and I smiled. Since the little 'egg show' Adrian performed, they have been really quiet in the school. They stopped bullying everyone. I guess they are scared of Adrian. Just then Adrian and the rest were coming out of the elevator that leads to their classroom. Adrian is really lucky. She gets a private classroom and she is away from all these high school drama. I'm not envious of her but I w

? Adrian's POV ?"Adrian?", I heard a low voice saying but I wasn't in the mood to wake up. The voice spoke up again and I noticed it is not a voice I'm familiar with. I've heard it maybe once or twice but it doesn't sound that familiar. I heard rumbling as the person stood up from the bed and walked."I'm bored and there is no one that's gonna play with me", I heard the voice mumbling. Then I recognized the voice then.Harper.What is she doing here? I opened my eyes and true enough Harper was standing with her back to me and about to open the door. "Harper?", I called her back.She turned and looked at me. It was indeed Harper. She gave me a grin which melted my heart. "Adrian!", She shouted and jumped on my bed. She put her arms around my neck and gave me a bone crushing hug. "You are awake.""Yes, Harp. Why are you here?", I asked because obviously, I was confused."Some bad guys wants to hurt mummy so your Dad

🚩 Melissa's POV 🚩Adrian, her Mum and I got into the house and I saw my aunt and uncle sitting with Mr Kendall, Aiden and a woman I don't recognize in the sitting room. Adrian greeted her dad and Aiden came over to greet me."Hey, beauty", he said grinning. If you need someone that deserves a gold medal in teasing, then Aiden is your guy. I smiled back at him and moved to my Aunt. 'What are you doing here?', I asked her."You'll know soon. Just calm down", she replied.Why do I have a feeling that whatever the situation is, I'm not gonna like it? I nodded and went to Adrian's room with her. On getting to her room, I fell back on the bed and decided to close my eyes for a little bit because I was tired from all the shopping. Mrs Kendall really knows how to wear someone out."Tired?", Adrian asked and I nodded. "Me too. Mum is just too much", she said shaking her head.She fell on the bed next to me and groaned, picking up her phone.

🚩 Adrian's POV 🚩️"Melissa", I called but she didn't look back for a second. I looked at Mum and saw her crying and Dad was petting her. I felt bad for her because I really believe that she looked for the baby. Frank is really a bastard. But how come my whole life is tied with Frank in it?"Mum, is all these true?", Aiden asked standing up."Yes, it is", mum replied."Then why didn't you tell us?""I had to be sure, Aid. I just couldn't tell you like that.""You should have told us you had a child before us, at least", he argued."But, I didn't-", she didn't get a chance to finish her statement because Aiden walked out of the sitting room and she burst into tears."Aiden!", I shouted but I was totally ignored.I looked at Mum again and I had no choice but to move closer and wrap my hands around her."You are not angry?", She asked looking at me with tears in her eyes."Angry? No. Hurt? Yes. But it's not your fault",

🚩 Adrian's POV 🚩I woke up when someone was pulling the covers from my body. I opened my eyes and Karlie Ann was standing with her hands on her hips raising an eyebrow."What?", I asked. 'It is time to get up. Aren't you going to school?'I checked the time. "What? It's still early. This is just 6 o'clock."'Yes. And that makes it the time to wake and dress up for school.'"No! We wake up by 8 in the morning", I argued.'Well, not anymore. Things have changed. Get up', she said and pulled the covers completely from my body. 'As from today, you have to wake up by 6 to get ready for school.'"What?!", I said almost shouting but she didn't say anything and went out the door.I took that as an opportunity and pull the covers back to sleep but she came in again holding a bottle of water.I laughed sheepishly.
