She Has My Face のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

The bike skidded to a halt on the pavement in front of the hollow house. The curtains had been stripped, all the furniture looted and the people that once lived there vanished.   Another bike skidded behind her. Jordan shook herself out of the trance.  She hadn’t intended on turning into the neighborhood. Somehow she was in front of the house that she had once been so comfortable in. Why did it feel like an enemy?   ‘Jordan what are you doing here?!  I thought we were going to the park.’ Ruby said.  Jordan exhaled.  She couldn’t take her eyes off the house.  It was as if Leah was going to burst through the front door with her full cheeks and bright smile.   ‘Jordan, they’re gone. They’re not coming back.’ Ruby’s hand rubbed her friends shoulder. 'I know Ruby.’ Jordan

She Has My Face  Lindsey tucked a loose strand of her hair behind her ear.  She’d decided on a simple bun for her first day of school. Monday had come too soon.  She’d spent Sunday helping her parents unpack, sort,  hang and clean. Clem made friends with some kids in the neighborhood and disappeared.   She groaned when she thought of her insensitive brother.  She hoped he was ready or else she’d leave without him.  Breakfast was on the new table but her tummy was full of nerves.  ‘Dad, can I have the car keys?’ Lindsey said.   Trey stuffed scrambled eggs in his mouth.  ‘In the kitchen. Grab some breakfast first.’  ‘I’m good Dad. Bye.’  ‘Love you.’ Trey called.   Lindsey stopped on the kitc

Set Me ApartLindsey fashioned a black hoodie and sunglasses to school. Maybe she would make it through the day without people gawking at her. ‘You’re making it obvious, Lindsey.’ Jordan leaned against a locker.  Lindsey ripped her glasses off.  ‘Forgive me for trying to keep people from staring at me.’ ‘People always want what they can’t have. If they can’t see you they’ll only follow you until they can.’  Lindsey sighed, she looked ridiculous anyway. She pulled back her hoodie and shoved the glasses in the locker.   ‘I guess you’re right. I should probably dyed my hair blonde and get contact lenses.’ ‘They will have to get used to it.’ Jordan shrugged.  ‘Will you get used to it? She was your best friend.’

Other than Clement,  Jordan was the only other person Lindsey knew. Approaching people when she had someone else’s face was like attempting to climb Mount Everest.  Jordan and Lindsey strolled the halls in comfortable silence until they got to the parking lot. Lindsey knew it was weird for Jordan but she needed her company. Jordan didn’t ask questions anymore or stare at her awkwardly.   Clem was by the car with his usual radical looking crew and his new girlfriend Amber. She’s a red head in serious need of a protein package at a salon.  Serge’s German vehicle was right where she left it.  ‘Hey Jordan, you know that guy—’  Lindsey fumbled with her words.  Jordan raised her brow.  ‘What guy?’  Serge emerged from the school,  Lindsey bobbed her head at him when he stopped to speak to a guy.   Jordan smirked and narrowed her eyes at him. ‘I see you. He’s okay but that one is more up m

Hollow Cove Woods The house had been fully established now Lindsey’s parents were left with the small matter of getting their dream restaurant up and running.  Lindsey and Clem tried to help out when they could, mostly Lindsey since Clem had a new girlfriend and group of friends he had to keep up with.   When Lindsey wasn’t sweeping at the restaurant she was doing homework with Jordan, or critiquing Serge's far from perfect cooking skills. Lindsey still feared what her Father would do when he found out Lindsey was spending long hours with a boy.   School hadn’t gotten less weird, she could have sworn she had three stalkers. If it weren’t for Jordan practically chasing most people away she would have dropped out of school at least until the case was over. Lindsey thought the DNA test would have taken top priority but it had been almost a week and the results still weren’t out.  One day a ‘Remember Leah King' poster had been stuck on
