I rub my hands against each other to warm my palms.

The air is getting chilly by the day and tonight, on Thanksgiving, the air is uncharacteristically cold.

I'm bad with cold weather and even the warm car does little to stop my body from shivering. Once the cold has sipped into my body, it's always difficult to warm it back up.

"Ethan, turn the heat up, will you." Karl commented and i watched Ethan do as he was told.

The car heat rushed to my face and i can tell it is hot as hell in here. But my hands are still cold.

I glanced over at Karl and then at Ethan. Both if their cheeks look red and i know the heat of the car was too much for them.

"You should turn the heat down, Ethan. It's too hot."

Ethan doesn't even argue with me or wait for Karl to tell him it was okay. He immediately turns the heat off.

I glanced at Karl again and saw that he was glaring at Ethan.

"It's fine. I'm not that cold." I said.

A total lie.

Karl turns his eyes over to me before he looked at my hands that we

    I stand at the corner of the large office, looking around the employees of the Davis Company celebrate Christmas and their last day at work until New years.It still surprises me how the company can give almost all of their employees a week off without losing profits. That's how legit the Davis Company is.Wearing a very thick jacket and blue jeans matched with some chucks I borrowed from April, i kept my distance from everyone and just observed.My boss is dancing with his wife around the heavy decorations of the office while other dance, drink or simply chat with their plus ones or other employees of the company.I sighed as i tried to come up with a reason as to why i came here today when i could have been in my home wrapped with some thick blankets ... Or my husband's arms.Instead, i only remember using this Christmas part as an excuse to not be alone at home on Christmas as Karl's work was pulling him to the company more these days.I will stay for a few more minutes and then I'

    I look down at Abriana's photo on the year book with a little smile and a huge relief.Clicking my pen open, i put a small tick next to her name and moved on. On to the next mend.I flip through the pages. The next few students on the year book were either people i called friends or people i knew but barely talked to. I kept on going until i reached a face i know I've washed with tears.Felisha Andrews.This girl was actually my best friend turned into my worst enemy.I'd known her since middle school and I'd shared some of my problems at home with her but she's "unintentional" shared my secret with some people who'd tried to mess with me.The hate I'd felt for her at such a young age was more than the hate I had for my parents and my family name. So,i made sure the secret i shared with her never left the lips of the people she shared it with, along with making her life miserable.The attack towards her was more personal.It was never to earn attention or get a spot light. It was fr

    I look at the sign of the studio, wondering whether or not i should get out of the car or just tell Ethan to dive away.Ethan sits in the drivers seat and waited for my next instructions without asking me why we've been sitting in the car outside of a small studio when we can be in our warm house sipping hot coco.Tucking my hands into my mittens, i blow out a big breath before opening the back door.Stepping out of the car, i quickly walked up to the door and pushed it open. The tiny bell on top of the door rang when i opened it and I don't wait a second before i rushed in and closed it behind me.I shivered a little before turning my back to the door and looked around the studio.It's empty considering it's Christmas and almost new year. But there is an elderly woman sitting behind a desk right infront of the door.The woman looked up at me and adjusted her glasses while leaning forward to get a better look at me."Hi. Umm.. I'm Lucy Chaw." I said as i walked closer to the woman.

    "lift you arms up." April commanded and waited for me to do as she said so she could take my measurements.She already had all of my measurements but she wanted to film every step of her process so she had to measure me again infront of the camera she'd set up in Zeus's room.Zeus is on the phone talking with Alice, his secret girlfriend, while April and I talked about the dress designs, colors and fabrics for my next hoody dress."Yeah... Okay, Love. I'll see you tomorrow at work. I'm coming in to finish up the preparations for Saturday's launch party so I'll be there the whole day. Maybe... We could have lunch together..."Zeus stopped for a few seconds before he sighed."Okay, Alice. I understand, you know i do. And i respect your decisions. So... I guess I'm just going to have to eat lunch with another woman."I have no idea what Alice said to Zeus after his little comment but he was smirking and smiling like an idiot."Of course. We'll eat like two professionals who happened to b

    The decoration looks amazing. The blue and white lights shining on the walls made the balloons look like their light bulbs.The Thompsons should don't speak expense when they do their jobs.Zeus's eyeshadow palette launch party had just started a few minutes ago and every one was looking around the company's main hall with aww.Me, wearing April's hoody dress- because i just couldn't help myself- looked at every part of the company with amusement.I looked around at the people talking to some of the Thompsons. They all looked like they dressed to impress.At the corner of my eyes, i caught Alice- Zeus's secret girlfriend- stealing a glance at the man of the hour, but she doesn't approach him.When ever s woman would walk up to Zeus and talk to him, Alice would walk a little closer to listen in on their conversation. She'd then look at the woman up and down before staring down at the close she's wearing.Because she's still on duty for the website, she's wearing baggy jeans with an ove

    Monday morning, back to work.Except, I'm at home because my stupid body couldn't make it past new year without getting sick.The night of New year had been perfect. Zeus's party was amazing and now everybody knows that he and Alice had been a thing for a long time. And to Alice's surprise, no one treated her differently because of it.If i was totally honest, i was a bit scared that they might treat her badly like me and a couple of my coworkers did to Princi. But that wasn't the case.Zeus and Alice had made it clear that their relationship has nothing to do with their work as they both complete their roles in the company with out a hitch.People couldn't treat Alice badly even if they wanted to. Her mad genius management of the company's website was proof enough that she knows how to do her job and that she doesn't need a Thompson to get to when she is right now.Aside from the two, Karl and I had a pretty fantastic night as well. Except i woke up the next morning with a high feve

    My heart beats uncontrollably in my chest.All the light mood escapes my body and got replaced my insane fear.How can it be?How can Karl's baby sister be in my year book?She's two year younger than me, it doesn't make any sense.But then... It hits me.I remembered a girl in my year... The youngest of the entire batch.She was smart and a teacher's pet. She had straight A's and was always in the library. Until one day, she caught our attention.Mitchell had been sick with a pregnancy scare and so she'd cut classes and snuck out to go to get herself a pregnancy test.Mitchell was the girls partner in class and because she was missing the lessons and refused to help her with the assignments, the girl had told on her and Mitchell had ended up getting suspended for two weeks.That was what had drawn our attention to the girl. To Kaily Thompson.And after that day, i made sure to turn her into a punching bag, turning the entire batch against her, spread rumors... Just anything i could d

    Karl Thompson...I press my palms together and leaned them against my chin."I swear, i didn't mean for any of this to happen...""Not now, Kaily." I said, cutting my baby sister off.I turned my head to the side and looked at Lucy.Sleeping soundly on the hospital bed, she looks so vulnerable than ever."Why would you do this?" April said accusingly to our youngest sister. "Is this some sort of revenge, or something? Did you have to do it infront of a room full of people and cameras. I bet she didn't even know you were filming her."Kaily doesn't give April an answer. She just sniffled.Today had been a disaster. We'd all went to support Kaily and I've been thinking that it was weird she'd hide such a big event from us. Now i know why she didn't want to tell us about her presentation.I sighed as i remembered the shock i felt when i saw the video. That day when i was called to the company because April and June had fought, Kaily was with Lucy and i was co

    Lucy Chaw... You know how the say the groom shouldn't see the bride in her wedding dress or else bad things will happen on your wedding day? Well I used to think that it was just a silly superstition. It's not. Preparing for the second wedding had taken a bit longer than we thought. It took me a few weeks to make the dress with the help of my two sister-in-laws and the over all preparation had taken a few more weeks which meant that April, June and I had to alter the dress around the waist all over again. But after much time of preparation, we are finally ready to renew our vows. Karl and I never had vows on our wedding because, it was never a marriage of Love. But now, we want to do it the right way, say what we want to say, read our vows to each other in front of our friends and families. Finally, at thirty- six month pregnant, I was finally ready to marry my husband again. But... but... After April helped me in to my dress and we were a few minutes short from walking down th

    Karl Thompson..."I'm almost there. Traffic jam is not a joke today." April's frustrated voice came from the other side of the phone."Alright, take your time and drive safe." I warned before hanging up the phone."Is she here yet?" June asked, catching my attention.I looked at my younger sister sitting front across me in my office and I shook my head."She's stuck in traffic." I commented and watched as June leaned back on her seat with a sigh."I'm kind of nervous." She said after a few seconds of silence.Looking down at the document on top of my desk, I nodded my head.I understood her nerves. April had been wanting to be apart of the Thompsons Fashion since she was a little girl. Her ambition had grown even more when June started working here.I still don't know what my two sisters talked about or when and how they made up but ever since they did made up, the two have been attached to each others hips.Their sisterhood has grown so much that April invites June out for

    Karl pulled me over to the room across from our girls room and opened the door.If breathtaking was the last room, then this one almost caused me to pass out."Happy birthday, wife." Karl whispered in to my ear as he stepped behind me and gently pushed me further into the room.There are shelves filled with large, different colored fabrics, a few mannequins stood here and there, a large pale pink table stood in the center of the room.The walls are graced with beautiful arts and designed wall papers. There are empty picture frames hanging on the walls."There are empty so you can feel them with anything you want." Karl commented from behind me as he let go of my hips and let me wonder further into the room.I stepped closer to the shelves holding the fabrics and I couldn't help but reach out and pinch them between my thumb and forefinger just to see if they were actually here.The fabrics felt expensive in my fingers, so beautiful and elegant.I looked across from the shelve to see a

    I looked around the backyard as our friends and family sang me a happy birthday.The beautiful birthday decoration stood behind me and my birthday cake stood in front.I pressed my palms flat against each other in front of me and listened. My cheeks were already hurting from having to smile too much but I couldn't stop my lips from stretching.I looked at the faces of my friends and families, each of them having a smile in their faces and I couldn't believe the fact that they were all here for me.I leaned closer to the cake once they finished singing me a happy birthday and took a deep breath to blow out the candles. I made sure to close my eyes and make a wish before the last candle was out.I glanced at Karl, who winked at me, quite literally winked at me, forcing heat to burn my cheeks.Soon enough, the cake was cut and pieces were making their ways out to our guests. Karl took my hand and led me to a chair. I let out a groan as soon as I dropped myself in the chair because I did

    I took a deep breath as Zeus finished his final touch and stepped back to take a look at his work."Do I look better?" I asked.Zeus chuckled before he offered me his hand and helped me up. I stepped towards the mirror and looked at my reflection. Zeus gave me a soft smile as he placed his hands on my shoulders."You look beautiful, Lucy." He commented. "I mean... I wan the one who did your make up, so it's only natural that you look your best."I playfully glared at Zeus through the mirror before a smile made its way to my lips."Thank you." I whispered. "You really are a life saver."Zeus nodded his head. He really was a life saver. In the last ten minutes, he was able to remove all the runny and ruined make up off of my face and do a soft natural look, all while trying to calm me down."Don't worry about it. I got you." He patted my shoulder before he started collecting the brushes from the sink."Still. I'm really grateful. And I'm sorry I made a scene out there."Zeus stopped col

    Lucy Chaw...I stared at my reflection with uncertainty. Placing both of my hands on my large baby bump, I looked down at my long, pale pink dress through the full length mirror. Instead of feeling happy and excited, I feel scared.I don't know why but it all felt fake. Like if I close my eyes for too long then it would all disappear and turn in to a far memory I could barely reach.The long dress Karl bought for me is beautiful and looks way too expensive. The pale pink fabric is decorated with small dusted golden glitter form the top to bottom. This morning, after Karl and I had breakfast alone because he said the cousin twins had an "Errand" to run, a group of stylists and make up artists had invaded the house and kept me locked up in our bedroom, pulling at my hair, stabbing at my face...Okay, fine. I may be over reacting.There were actually only three women that came at Karl's request. One woman to style my hair, one woman to deal with my make up and a third wo

    The entire family clapped their hands as soon as the youngest Thompson walked up to the stage and got her medical degree.The loud noice, claps and cheers caught Kaily's attention and she waved over to us with a shy smile in her face.From the moment she walked up on the stage to the moment she walked down, each of us showed our support.Lucy stood beside me, happily clapping her hands for my baby sister. It really surprised me when I saw the two walking into the sitting room together the night of Kaily's surprise party. But what shocked me more was the fact that those two have gotten closer to each other to the point that the two, including April were making plans to have a sleepover at April's old apartment.All of us sat down after Kaily was off the stage and I couldn't help but look around me.Every single Thompson was here including our grandmother Candis. Although, I was a bit surprised when she warmly greeted Lucy when we all met our front before we walked in.Lucy looked just

    Karl Thompson...I looked down at the package Stuart just gave me as I was walking up to the front door of our house.It's addressed to my wife but since Stuart and Ethan were both aware about the stress we're dealing with thanks to Garzei Chaw, they had decided that they didn't want to stress her out. So, they waited for me to come home to give me the package.I walked through the long hall and then up the stairs to make my way to our shared bed room. But before I could reach out room, my eyes traveled over to the rest of the bedrooms and empty rooms on our floor.I glanced at our bed room door before walking past it. I silenced my footsteps and walked over to the next room which was the same room Lucy was staying at when she first came back home. I reached out for the door knob and twisted it open Seeing this room reminded me of that horrible night. Looking side way at the door, it almost made me feel like I need to rip it out. It made me feel like I need to rip out

    Lucy Chaw...I sat at the back of the car with Ethan in the drivers seat.I scrolled through my phone, absently looking at the screen as I kept recalling the session I just had with Dr. Goodman.We didn't talk about anything different from the last session, although I did mention the shock of a life time when Karl and I found out that we were having twins. Dr. Goodman had congratulated me before she started analyzing me again. She had asked me questions I wasn't able to give answers to, like, why I was so freaked out when I realized that the baby was not just a baby but babies.I had tried to sum it up to hormones and move on but the look Dr. Goodman gave me made me really uncomfortable. It was as if she was telling me that most families with backgrounds like Karl and I wouldn't be upset if we have two or three kids come at us at once. So, why had I been so freaken upset.I sighed as I leaned my head back and closed my eyes.I had a pretty fun morning. Spending time w
