Semua Bab French Rose: Bab 21 - Bab 30

The ride home was quiet, very quiet. Painfully quiet in fact. Our car got fixed and Lucas drove it while the driver took both my father and I in the other car. I sat next to him in complete silence, no one made any effort to talk and the rain, it stopped too right after I got myself in trouble. Immediately after, not a second before I decided to go in the rain. You see what I mean when I said life was totally against me? He didn't look mad, not a single bit but I didn't trust it. You see, my father wasn't the type to get all mad in public or even show it at all. He would keep it all in till we were alone and then a free lecture about responsibility. Let me tell you, it didn't matter if he he was busy or had any work to do. He would always make time. He was tapping away on his phone and with the way it looked, he was doing something very important. At first, I thought it was work but he looked way too serious. Besides, he did most of that in his office back at home. I was beginning t

Christina KingAnother dose of daily embarrassment but this time, i'm proud to say it wasn't my fault. You might say there's nothing to feel ashamed about since I fell on my butt in front of my dad and a man in oversized clothes and honestly, that's exactly what I thought before I looked up and saw seven other people. Not to mention, three of them were trying to squeeze in their laugh and were failing at it. This is the moment where you do something extremely stupid and act like it never happened. I bounced back on my feet and smiled awkwardly at all seven of them. I don't know why exactly I did that since it just made me feel even worse but I did. I looked back at dad and Mr Susan and they were feet away from me, still chatting. None offered to help me back up or a utter a simple 'sorry'. There you have it guys, gentlemen. "Hi"It was a high pitched voice, like that of a six year old, and it came from behind me. I turned around and saw one of the seven that stared at me and yes,

Christina King. It was past ten and I was back in the comfort of my room. Hours in the house of the Susan's felt like a year. Every single thing in that house was out to get me. The children were pranksters and they were very good at it. If all went the way they planed, I could've had my meal explode in front of me, the chair beneath me break and not just that, I could've also been escorted by Jenifer to her room where the worst would've happened. At the end of the day, I missed every single one of them and that was enough to put a smile on my face. I didn't see Harley after she angrily left the table earlier. I got back downstairs with my face and dress cleaned, met everyone else having ice cream which was weird cause I literally left a few minutes ago but whatever and finally, I didn't get to have my steak or ice cream cause things just happened to go my way. After dinner, we spent just a few minutes before we left and that was about two hours ago. The drive home was fast cause

Christina KingI've never been more embarrassed in my life. I just knew she was up to something, I should've realised it when I saw that smile on her face. Out of all things to do, this just happened to be the one she found would hurt me the most, bringing Leo up to my room when I was barely ready. A big thank you to Hailey for doing this, she just made me realise I should keep my door lock every single minute. Looking at the bright side, I may have my face swollen and discolored but at least I had a dress on."Christina, what happened to you" Leo rushed to where I was, blocking my view of Hailey's smirk. That was the last i saw of her before she left my doorstep. "You're in my way" Leo's tone may have been a little too harsh when he told Lucas to move and it was very obvious Lucas wasn't happy with it, his face showed it and just then, he turned away and left the room. I felt a pinch in my chest seeing him leave with that emotion on his face. I didn't know everything about him but

Christina KingThis is one of the moments in my life where I have to make a decision that changes literally everything. I never texted Alex for a very obvious reason and I only had her number because my mom forced me to. Ever since, I had it saved on my phone and never used it, not even once. She also had mine and never texted me either so I guess it was just something neutral. I never imagined that this day would come, when I would pick up my phone myself and be the first to text. To me, it really didn't matter who did it first. It's not like I hated her or anything, we just never got along well from childhood and I guess the foundation of our friendship was broken even before it started. What I was about to do could mean a lot of things on her side and I was supposed to but I didn't care anymore. I was very sure Alex wouldn't want to bring up any reason to make me feel worse about myself after hearing I knew what happened between she and Lucas. I wasn't bringing it up as a threat
