《Loving Your Imperfections》全部章節：第 11 章 - 第 20 章

MiaNerves in hand, I took a seat next to her and sighed. "Look, Sandra... I know last time I came to your house I... I was rude and," She puts her hand up, closing her eyes, "Stop. Before you start giving me all this pity shit. You're right... You were rude, and you ruined my day. You have no idea," she says as her eyes become watery. "How much I have hated myself all this time. How at many points I have asked myself, maybe I wasn't so innocent, it could be my fault. I get it... You hate me because you lost your mom, and you were so young, you had to grow up without her, but guess what? I was just a teen." she says, making me feel awful."I was on my way to a friend's house that day," she says after pausing for a few moments. "My mom had just gifted me that car. And, I wanted to show it off to my friend. We were going to drive off to celebrate my sixteenth birthday. I was so excited." she says, sniffling, but sounding ecstatic about the memory. I had always wanted my car, and my par

MiaWe made our way to his house first. He needed to leave something behind and wanted to make sure to tell his parents he was not joining them for dinner as well. "Would you like to say hi to my mom? I know she'll be thrilled to see you before we go,” he says, giving me that signature smile as he takes his duffle bag out of the trunk of his car and tosses his helmet over his shoulder. “I supposed to. She's not too busy, is she?” I ask, feeling shy. I don’t know why, but I always feel so shy around his mom. She's got this aura to her... She's the sweetest woman, and very beautiful, but she's not someone to mess with either. I've seen her. I've seen her momma bear side, and it is not pretty. I remember a few times they messed with Nate as we were growing up, and she took action. She is not the kind to take things lightly and never hesitates to advocate for what is right. I love that about her. It's very admirable indeed. “She can never be too busy for you, Mia. You know that. Come o

Mia"So, be real with me here, Bay. What's happening with you and this guy, Liam?" I dared to ask her, making her eyes widen in shock. She has been spending an awful lot of time with him, and I'm happy for her. I really am, but I don't like him. He's a player. I mean, he was making out with this cheerleader chick a few weeks ago in front of Bailey's locker. He dared to parade other girls and make out with them in front of her since I could remember. I am not buying this 'I am suddenly into you’ crap. Something is going on, and I know it. I can feel it. "Nothing is happening. We're just friends. I mean, yeah, he asked me to help him out with a few things regarding school, but that's it." "Bay!" "It's just tutoring, Mia. Nothing else. I'm fine, I promise. You gotta stop babysitting me all the time." she says, making me chuckle. "I am not babysitting you. I'm just worried." "Mia, I know you don't like Liam. I get it. J0rdan said the same thing, and so did most in our group, but I am

MiaI smiled brightly, holding Nate's hand as he led me through the vineyard lanes. I can't remember when was the last time I came here. I used to love coming to their vineyard. There is so much to do. His grandpa has self-picking events that bring in people from all over. Each season, he holds different events, and I look forward to each one of them. From his apple orchards to the pumpkin patches in the fall; the Christmas trees in the winter, and snowman competitions, everything in this vineyard just makes the day worthwhile. God, and don't get me started on the accommodations. The restaurants and hotels they opened here are beautiful. It's been numerous times that they have invited us to stay, and my god! It is memorable. I was even thinking of getting a part-time job at the restaurant here, or maybe in one of the souvenir stores, who knows, but I definitely want to get a part-time here. I could really use the extra cash for college next year.My mouth gawked open as I turn and s

Mia (Two Weeks Later)Nate and I have had a blast hanging out at school and after school. Usually, I wait up for him to get out of football practice, but I don't mind. Bailey waits too because somehow, she and Liam have started talking and hanging out more and more.I don't like the guy by the way, but hey, it's all up to her. I just hope she's careful with him. He's bad news. As for Nate and I, we have dinner tonight with his family to celebrate his mom's new book. We're also celebrating the victory of their game last week for our homecoming game. I am proud to say, Nate made a bunch of touchdowns and he won the game. Nate was captain last year, but this year he was placed as a wide receiver, and my god! The coach was amazed by his performance. Nate is so good, but he was knocked down plenty because they know if given the slightest opening, he will take advantage of it. The team caught on quickly that he was their star and did everything in their power to keep him blocked the who
