Nothing But Lies
I was eighteen when I got together with Sam Bennett. We were in love for two yearsβat least, that was what I thoughtβuntil I found out I was nothing more than a stand-in for someone else. After a huge fight, we broke up.
Not long after, Paxton Gibson, the warm and caring senior who had always looked out for me, began pursuing me passionately. He was persistent, unwavering, and so sincere that I finally let down my guard and accepted him.
Just when I thought I had finally found true happiness, I overheard a phone call between Paxton and Sam.
βDonβt worry, Leah trusts me completely. Take good care of Georgina. The surgery will happen soon.β
In the end, when I really did disappear, they changed their minds.
βLeah, come home with me, please?β
I smiled, at peace with myself. βBut I havenβt had a home for a long time.β
