Semua Bab Unhealthy Obsession With My Stepbrother : Bab 11 - Bab 20

Jessica's POV. I kicked my foot against the pebble, ruminating on what had just happened between my mother and the man she chose for herself as a husband. One would think that as an adult, people would be susceptible to making the right choices, but at the moment, I didn't think that was what was happening. "Also having trouble sleeping?" A dark voice that belonged to my nemesis whispered behind me. I refused to give him the satisfaction of turning just so that he could look into my eyes and realize that I was having a meltdown on behalf of my mother. I didn't even think that was possible. "Not everyone has a hard time sleeping especially after they've been carrying their ego all day long." I bluffed, trying to hit him with the most sarcastic line I could come up with in the heat of the moment. It was probably pointless but that wouldn't stop me from trying.Something distant crossed in his eyes before flashing to their impassive look. "You have never had a hard time telling me

Jessica's POV My eyes widened like saucers as I tried to figure out what the hell he was talking about because this wasn't anything else different from what I had ever expected from him."You have more than enough reasons to be mad at me but there is only one thing that sticks out like a sore thumb, I am not going to be involved in catching a murderer if this is anyway true." I stood my ground.There were better things I could use my time and energy for which included keeping quiet and watching. "Do you really think that this is going to be very easy to get away from especially if my father finds out that you must have overheard him speaking about something as serious as this behind his back? I know that you already know the answer but you would like to pretend like you don't and it's a very wonderful idea." Nate responded with chilling moves. I was very angry with whatever he was trying to put on me because that was very problematic but I decided to keep looking and pretend like I

Nate. I headed into the room almost immediately with annoyance coating my mind and brains.I was irritated by the way my father was acting like my friend when there was absolutely nothing like that, especially over breakfast. I was one of the people who decided to take laws in my hands and not allow anybody to push me away. I certainly wasn't also going to sit here and watch and hope that somebody would kind of figure things out, because most of the time they never do one they leave you hung and dry.I was of the major opinion that there was never going to be anything different or good coming out from my stay with my father but I might just be as long as anything else so I needed to be very careful. "Nate, you cannot just walk out on me especially when we're having breakfast. It is supposed to be a family dinner where everyone has a wonderful expression and we enjoy ourselves. I would not tolerate any form of disrespect from you." My father thundered from without. If I was going

\Nate. I headed into the locker room to clear my head. I had had enough of my father's stringing along and I intentionally refused to see the grave site even if I truly wanted it to get this done and dusted with. He apparently said that he wanted us to have a form of bonding just for closure but I didn't think that I was in the right mental space to process that without going off on him like a bull. This was just how I felt and I didn't think anything was topping it soon. My eyes were fixated on what I could get out of this and I wouldn't even lie. I didn't want to pretend to have such high morals when I knew what was running through my mind. I was looking for the best way to crush this man and make sure that he never came to light anymore. I was also very content with making sure that he regretted his actions to the last letter and I would have the upper hand while he tried to grasp for straws, and I wasn't even going to pretend about it. "Hey, bud, I hear that you and that

Jessica's POV. "Earth to Jessica!" Fingers snapped in my face jolting me back to the presence as I looked at my friend Hazel, She smiled from ear to ear, "I can already see how this works. You are already building houses in the air, right?" "Too loud," I complained, "Is there anything you want me to do besides you shouting into my ears and making me barf?" I faked irritation. Hazel stared at me as though I had grown seven heads. "I wasn't even expecting less from you. Are you serious right now? What's wrong with you the past few days?" She asked, sitting beside me, taking up my personal space with reckless abandon.I was pretty sure that she wanted to just test me the best way she could just extract information from me but she had failed woefully because I didn't even have anything to say "This is seriously very alarming. I believe that there is something accidentally different about you but you are hiding it away from me and it makes me really want to go all in and discover it."
