How could he do this to me? How could he lied and be with Nina?What the fuck is going on?But it seems he is not with her but following her into the store.That's a different story, yet it still pisses me off that he lied to me with a text.My whole brain is going berserk that it's giving me a migraine. A ticking bomb ready to explode. "Effie, you okay?"My brain malfunctioned while my eyes were red as I crushed my soft drink till it exploded in my hand, creating a bursting waterworks."Damn, Effie!" Lily exclaimed. I finally blinked and saw that she and Clark were sprinkled with Coke. "What's going on with you? One minute you were fine, then the next-""Lily, I'm so sorry," I grabbed some paper towels and helped wipe Lily and Clark off from becoming sticky. My eyes were adrift to where Logan and Nina went inside the store. I should have paid more attention, and it caused more recklessness. "Sorry guys, I'll be right back.""Wait, Effie!"I ignored the calling of Lily and paced my f

One Saturday morning, I couldn't believe what I was hearing or the fact our house smelled like Wonderland.It's the same song she repeatedly hums, which started irritating Ares and me.The death song.Shake it off by Taylor Swift.She would sing that song whenever she was super happy because of its hype beat, but the lyrics are about shaking off romance. I don't know why she would be satisfied with a song like that, but the way she sang seems funny yet horrifying.I could hear her singing from the kitchen as I opened my door and the smell of freshly baked goods coming from the direction of a siren screeching. Athena didn't inherit our dad's harmonic vocals, and she didn't mind. I heard a creaking sound coming from Ares' door, and when I spotted him peaking, he looked mortified."Hey," his voice hoarse and scared. "She's back.""I know.""Do you know why?" Ares knows why he didn't want the answer because he believes it's all a dream."I think it has to do with her telling Rex about the

I want to open my mouth and ask if Ares will be okay with the whole change, but seeing the image of my brother whining about living up in the attic with rats and roaches would stain him. Being a buff-ass dude, Ares is still a wimp regarding small critters. It's going to be a fight he can not win.I'm starting to feel bad for him."Not going to ask," I tapped my finger on the island table. "So, your okay will all this life-changing experience? You soon-be-mom and living with your baby daddy. Besides you popping a human out of you, did he pop the question?""Rex and I decided to wait for that. Although, I want to spend my life with him. Weddings are too much of a hassle, and I ain't that type to turn into a Bridezilla." She ices the rest of the cupcakes."You're worse than a Bridezilla, your Godzilla himself," I snort, making Athena laugh."Yeah, it's true.""Life-changing experience," I took another cookie from the tray. "It's scary.""Effie, don't make it sound like a bad thing." When

"Hey, Liam," I said as I walked up behind him. He sat outside the cafe with his laptop. Once I sat, I felt googling eyes from some of the females sitting around us, trying to make eye contact with him, but no luck. "There are lots of girls at Starbucks today." "Yeah, it's annoying," he grumbled. I frowned, knowing he didn't want full attention from so many girls in one place. I thought he would be the kind of guy like Seth, who loves attention but wasn't in the mood. I picked a place to discuss matters after I called him yesterday, where it's far from his family's shop and my house. I didn't want Logan to know what we were up to. "Sorry," I said. He just brushed his hair back and smiled, accepting my apology. "So, What did you tell your brothers?" "I told them that I'm meeting a girl," he had his drink of Carmel Frappuccino, grande size taking a sip. "I had to beg Rex to give me a day off." "I'm sorry." "Hey, don't be," he set his drink down. "You ask me a favor, plus your my br

Liam had me walk to the beach.The beach!It took us about an hour to get there, and my feet were killing me.I complained about the way, and Liam suggested it's good exercise for my cow thighs. He laughed, and in return, I pinched his ear, which he cried like a baby, and apologized. I told him not to call me fat. Not to name any girl fat."Since I was a kid, my parents would take my brothers and me here to enjoy the water. If you saw our beaches, you will love Hawaii."I wiggle my toes in the sand. "Logan sometimes talks about home and wishes he would return, but being there reminds him of his past.""Yeah," he agreed. "Us brothers all want to avoid our past from the home we loved and left behind.""So, what's your story?" I pulled my knee up to my chin as I lay my head, observing him with open ears."My story," he let out a cackle, his eyes solemnly focused on the beach. "Effie, I did something. Something bad." He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and let it out slowly. It was sh

Damn geezer.At his age, he can still make jokes.I smack my lips as I inhale air to cool my tongue. "Um...Odin, about Terry.""You've finally taken an interest?" He says as another joke makes me scowl at him. Odin smiled. "Just joking. I can see in your eyes are full of Logan."He got me there.Not in my eyes, but mind, body, and soul are all I could think about him."Anyways, about Terry," I began. "There is something about him I can't quite figure out.""Oh," Odin took another sip of his tea. "What made you think that? I've known Terry since he was a child. His father used to work for me until Terry took his place.""I don't know," staring at my cup of tea, steam swirling above it, indicating it was still hot. "Can I be honest with you?""Sure.""When I was little, after my parents passed away, the social service separated my siblings and me to different homes. I didn't know why they didn't put us together, but when I was living in a foster home with The Brayden family. The kids th

Today is Halloween. Can you believe it?!I can't.I'm wailing in excitement inside.This morning I had myself ready to wear my Moana costume. Last night I had Lily's dad lend me his curling iron for today. I woke up at five to bathe, dry, and curl my hair. I never did anything to my hair, only tie it up in a bun, in a long braid or let it lose. Curling my hair was new to me. Luckily, Nicky taught me to be cautious about ironing my hair. I've been burned twice curling my hair, and I had to wrap Mickey Mouse bandages around my thumb and index finger, and boy, that shit hurts.Once I finished my breakfast, I said goodbye to my sister, who was getting emotional about the costume choice because of the pregnancy. I let her cry over it until I left the house. I pulled on my earphone, placing them in my ear as I started to wear my jacket when I heard a calling chant coming from my rightI flash a blush and look over at the Wolfe brother's house to find Seth and Don outside, chilling on the

"Effie, I'm very disappointed," Thea had her hands on her hips, upset. Worst - She's pissed. Once, she received a phone call from Principle Brown telling her everything. She brought me home after detention into my room and gave me a lecture - three hours, to be precise- until my ears bled. I sat on my bed in my room, and in the middle of it, I could hear the music and enjoyment outside the thick walls of my room as it made me pout and groan that I should be out there having fun but instead getting a seriousness of adult here from my sister. "You hit another student?" It wasn't a question but more of emphasizing what I did. Her hands crossed over her chest as she bore her silver eyes, now dark grey, angry. "Babe, you need to relax," Luckily, Rex was there to pull an invisible leash before my sister could lash at me. "No, Rex. Butt out," She snarled lowly at him. Her baby daddy just let it go and sighed, not wanting to argue with a woman who was pregnant with his child. Thea wore

SIXTY NINE

I woke to a cold it pierced my skin like needles. Slowly and reluctantly, I uncover my face. I blink, close my eyes, and blink again. Everything is blurry and cold.The cold licked my whole body, crept under my costume, and spread across my skin like the lacy tide on a cold winter beach. The coldness hit my nerves until I lost it as I was chattering my teeth hard. I realized I was inside a large container around me with all-white decorations of ice. Hanging on the wall were frozen meat, hooked, and a couple of shelves containing other meat products. That is when I figure I'm in a large freezer.A painful poke of pang hit my head when I remembered something struck me. I tried to massage my head, only to be chained up.I tend to move, but my hands are shackled with chains against the wall. With a bit of my strength to fight the cold and freezing limbs, I tried to pull the chains with no success. My whole body is like frozen yogurt. I'm able to move but stuck in one spot.I wasn't sure

This bitch.Is she trying to kill me?In this scenario, she is.But I don't believe it's my fault that Logan doesn't return her feelings."After that mental breakdown, I dropped out of school, I went on an extreme diet, and when that didn't work, I asked a family doctor to suck all my fat out, and while that, ask him to change my appearances on my face to keep me from looking like a bulldog." She put the gun aside and pulled out a compact mirror, looking at herself through it. She prepped herself. "Since I moved back to Long Beach, transfer to where I attended high school for all to admire me, boys and girls. I've become popular within a day. I was enjoying my great new life. Then when Logan and his brother transferred to our school, I was thrilled, more thrilled. I exploded with happiness. At first, he didn't know who I was, but that didn't matter as long I grasped this chance for him to be mine and only mine."Heather glanced away from her small mirror, gleaming with a sinister look
