Semua Bab The Songbird : Bab 21 - Bab 30

  “This wasn’t how I wanted to start this out,” Gabe said with a laugh. “However, thank you yet again. I guess that guy really has it bad for you.”“I don’t know why,” Larissa said as she looked at him. She yawned as she spoke.“Long night?” he asked.“Yeah, you could say that,” Larissa said. “Apparently, now that I am an acting teacher, I am going to have my hours cut here as well.”“What?” Gabe asked as he looked at her.“Yeah, my boss basically gave me the next month off with me really only going over paperwork,” Larissa said, and Gabe smiled.“Well, I can’t complain. That means I can have some of your time.” He said as he looked at her. “You have much more to do tonight?”“Only some files.” She said.“I have some dinner in the c

  Larissa didn’t bother to go home to change. She had planned all of this out before she had left the house to go to work the night before. Dragging, she was sitting drinking her fourth cup of coffee in the office, planning out her day. The school was still in an uproar about the accident and the disappearance of not only the two teachers but a few other people that seemed to be missing now. She looked at the other teachers, who all shook their heads at her, but she wasn’t sure what to believe anymore.Gabe walked in and looked at her, and smiled. Though he was hoping to find her alone, he put his stuff down at his desk in the office, and he made his way over to her. “Did you hear?” He asked softly.“Hear what?” She asked as she looked at him. He looked at her and shook his head. He saw the lines under her eyes as they were dark and circle-like. She had not rested like he hoped.&ldqu

     Larissa watched while he worked in the kitchen. She really had zero cooking skills, so it was like learning a new equation for something. He seemed to be having a good time, though, as he worked. Talking about the most inane subjects or starting off stories, this one time. She was just listening. Still a little dazed by her lack of sleep.That was when someone was at her front door. She didn’t get visitors often, so she looked at him confused. She walked to the front of the house, and he turned everything to a low heat and followed her. She opened the door and saw it was her sister-in-law Stacey and her two daughters standing there. They all were upset.  “They found him,” Stacey said.“What?” Larissa asked as she tried to process what her sister-in-law said. “Where is he?”

   The next two days flew by for the two people. Though at school, she cornered Judy in one of the offices and then closed and locked the door behind her. “What the hell is going on?” Larissa asked.“What do you mean?” Judy asked.“They found Drew and Ann with the kids that were missing in some car two states away burned and hardly recognizable, but they got a positive ID on Drew from my father.” Larissa said, “How the hell did that even happen?”“Things happen like they are supposed to.” The older woman said, “I told you that I wouldn’t allow you or him to get involved in this.”“Judy, did you blackmail my father to lie or something?” Larissa asked.“All I have to say is he saw the benefit to having this end quickly. Elle and her parents have also seen the light as well. This will

Inspiration Lewis Capaldi Hold me while you waitChapter 1 Dawn Newberry walked onto the campus of the local college and could feel all the butterflies in her stomach take flight. She knew that she was different from every other person on the entire campus, and though she was special in some ways, different was not good when dealing with other people. She hated the idea that she was there. She was small and knew that she had mapped out the campus and had the map in her mind. She was going to take forever to get to one side and back. Her legs kept moving, though, knowing that she was probably going to be late regardless of whatever she did to try to make it on-time.She had been told from the Dean of the college that all her professors had been told of the slight difference with her. She knew that only meant one thing. She was going to be singled out even more. She would rather explain it he
