Lia sat across from Tyler’s mum, Miss Laura at a small table tucked between two tall bookshelves in the quiet bookstore. The place smelled faintly of old pages and cinnamon tea, and the morning light filtered gently through the front windows. Laura looked healthier than the last time Lia had seen her, almost glowing with regained strength.“Hey, Miss Laura,” Lia greeted softly.“Please, just call me Laura,” she replied with a gentle smile.Lia nodded, returning the smile. “How’s your health? I can see you’re a lot better now.”“Yes, dear. I can’t remember the last time I felt this healthy…” Laura sighed, a weight shifting in her voice. “…and that brings us to why we’re here.”Lia straightened slightly, her stomach tightening. “What do you mean? What deal did Tyler take?” She leaned in without realizing it, completely captured by the seriousness in Laura’s tone.Laura’s eyes drifted to her hands as she folded them together. “While I was in the hospital, the medical bills kept going up,

They sat on the rooftop in silence, the cool breeze brushing against their skin as they gazed down at the school grounds below. The world felt strangely distant from up there, smaller, quieter. Almost like it paused just for them.“I am sorry, that you have to have a father like Adrian,” Lia finally managed to say. Her voice was soft, weighed with sympathy and guilt she knew she didn’t owe but still felt.“There is nothing to be sorry about, it’s not your fault...” Tyler replied, shaking his head as he leaned back against the railing. “Besides, I have already gotten used to it. I shouldn’t expect anything different.” His words held no anger, just resignation, the kind that came from years of disappointment.“Why didn’t you tell me about the deal? You knew I would have understood,” Lia said, turning toward him with hurt lingering in her eyes.“I know, and I am sorry.” Tyler’s voice dropped lower, his expression tightening as if the truth pained him. “I should have told you, but… I gues

By the time Lia got to school, the atmosphere felt different. Whispers followed her through the hallway, eyes lingering a little too long as she passed. Phones were subtly lifted, murmurs spreading like wildfire but Lia kept walking. She refused to let it slow her down. “Hey,” Trudy said, jogging to catch up with her. “Are you okay?” “Yeah,” Lia replied flatly. “Why wouldn’t I be?” She didn’t even break her stride. “Well… everyone thinks you know the reason the wedding was called off,” Trudy said, glancing down at her phone. “And the comments? They’re awful.” “What?” Lia stopped. “Let me see.” “No,” Trudy said quickly, pulling the phone back. “If you haven’t seen it yet, you really shouldn’t.” “Oh yeah?” Lia scoffed, already pulling out her own phone. “You do know I have social media, right?” Trudy cursed under her breath. “Lia, you really shouldn’t...” Too late. Lia scrolled through T*****r, her jaw tightening with every swipe. “Wasn’t Lia adopted? Yeah, she’s definitely inf

Lia made her way to the principal’s office as requested, her mind still crowded with thoughts from the assembly. The hallways buzzed with excitement over the fundraiser announcement, but she could barely focus on any of it. Something about the way Principal Gabriel had singled her out in front of everyone made her uneasy. She reached the office door and knocked once. “Come in,” Principal Gabriel’s voice answered immediately. Lia pushed the door open carefully. “You asked to see me, sir?” Lia said upon entering the room. The moment she stepped inside, her gaze landed on Adrian, who was already seated opposite the principal’s desk. He looked composed as always, dressed sharply, fingers folded calmly in his lap like he belonged there. It was obvious they had already been discussing something before she arrived. Lia instantly stiffened. She didn’t say a word to him. “Yes, please have a seat,” Principal Gabriel offered politely. Lia sat down slowly, though every instinct in her bo

“Well, technically we have seen but we've been talking,” Damien cleared. “Okay...tell me more,” Lia said, even more eager to listen. “So his name is Sebastian...” “Ooh, that’s a really hot name,” Lia wiggled her eyebrows. “...do you have pics?” Lia asked. “Yes, but not a full profile,” Damien said, scrolling through his gallery. He showed Lia a picture of a shirtless guy standing beside a pool. It was a face-off picture, but the guy’s well-built frame was impossible to miss. His biceps were hefty, defined muscles stretching beneath damp skin. Water clung to his torso, highlighting his six-pack abs, while his shorts were soaked enough to reveal the faint outline beneath . “Wow, he’s really hot,” Lia admitted, taking in every detail before finally tearing her eyes away from the photo. “I know,” Damien said with a smug little smirk, clearly pleased with himself. “How did you guys meet?” Lia asked curiously. “He messaged me on I*******m with an anonymous account...” Damien explain
