Isa's Pov
After Mrs North's demise and Mr North's disappearance, I started living in their house, all by myself. I didn't have anywhere else to go. I miss Nolan. He was the only friend I had. I started school but I didn't make any friends, I was scared they would leave eventually. I've been living with Niall for a few months, Owen joined last month. He can be a handful but he's really nice and attentive. He's really funny too. He reminds me of Nolan. They're so alike. Grandma said Nolan was coming back. She didn't tell us the day he was coming. I sighed as I walked into the lounge. I was about to climb the stairs when I suddenly had the urge to look back. I looked back slowly, and I saw him. The person I always wanted to see and also dreaded seeing. "Nolan" I said as my heart skipped a beat. "Aren't you surprised to see me?" He asked. "It's not like you're a celebrity or that she was awaiting your arrival." Owen said curtly. He took off his hearing aids, placed them in their case and closed his eyes. "I'm gonna go to bed" Isa said as she climbed the stairs. "Nice job" Haru said with a straight face. The next day Nolan's Pov I don't even know what I'm gonna say to her. I laid back on my bed as I remembered the last day we were together. I really miss those days. I don't think she likes me anymore. I was about to leave my room when someone entered. I thought it was Isa but as soon as I inhaled the perfume, I knew that it was Haru. "Not who you were hoping to see?" Haru asked as he looked around. "No kidding " , I replied. "Are you okay?", I know you must feel overwhelmed." Haru voiced his concern. "I'm fine Haru." I replied. "Let's go downstairs." I added. "What if he's there?" Haru asked with a frown on his face. "He?, Owen?" I asked as I was confused. "He's mean", He replied. "No kidding" I added as I pushed him forward and we headed downstairs. "Hey" I said to Isa. "Hi", she replied. "I wanted to ask, who's your friend?" "He's Haruto." Nolan said with a tone of disappointment. "It's a beautiful name." Isa said. "Are we lying now?", Owen asked. "That wasn't a lie." Isa replied. "Sure" Owen said." It's pretty obvious that you were being sarcastic." Niall said. "Nolan, I'm glad you're back." Isa said. "Thanks. "Nolan replied." "I didn't think you would come though." Isa added. "Really?" Owen asked. "What?" Isa said as she was confused. "You on a lying spree?" Owen asked. "I'm not doing this today Owen." Isa said as she left. Probably to her room. "See, he has a problem." Haru said." "No kidding." I replied. "So, how did you guys meet?" Niall asked. "That's the best you could do?" Owen asked. "What was I supposed to ask then?" Niall said. "You could ask why he's wearing that ugly shirt, or why he's being awkward around herr." "Herr?" Niall asked as he confused. "My shirt is ugly?, you think this shirt is ugly." "I wouldn't wear it if it was the last shirt in earth." Owen said. "Is it really that bad", Haru asked embarrassed. "Yeah, it's really flashy." Niall said. "Very flashy." Nolan added. "And ugly." Niall said. "Very ugly." Nolan added. " You gave me this shirt." Haru said angrily. "No wonder it looked familiar. I didn't think you'd ever wear it. Nolan said. "I'm sure you did" Haru said as he rolled his eyes. Niall laughed while Owen tried to hide his. "I'm never taking anything from you ever again." Haru said as he went up the stairs. " By the way, what's up with you and Isa?" Niall asked as Owen rolled his eyes and stood up. "Boring" He said and left. "Don't worry, you'll get used to him." Niall said as he saw the look on Nolan's face. "Sure", Nolan replied. "Don't you guys go to school?" Nolan asked. "Nah, I'm probably gonna die before I'm twenty five. It's kinda pointless." Niall said. " Truth be told, I don't know what to do." Nolan said. "I'm scared, really scared." He added. "I understand." Niall said as he tried to be understanding. "I was always jealous of you, thinking that you had a normal childhood. "I'm sorry you went through all that all by yourself. Niall said. "It must have been worse for you guys, spending your childhood in the hospital isn't exactly a normal way to grow up." Nolan added. "Yeah, life isn't a fairytale." Niall said."Hey, can we talk?" Nolan said to Isa. "Sure" she replied. "I just wanna apologize, I'm really sorry, for everything." Nolan added. "It's fine, you don't have to apologize." Isa said. "I think... Nolan said but was interrupted by Isa. "I said it's fine. You being back here doesn't change anything. I was a fool for thinking that you actually liked me." Isa said. "I know you never liked me. Alphonso told me and it's fine, really." She added. "What do you mean Alphonso told you?, and you believed him?" Nolan asked. "How dare he speak about my feelings?, do you know how much it hurt?, to lie to you. You have no idea how much my heart ached. All this years, I wanted to make everything right." Nolan said as tears ran down his face. "How exactly are you gonna do that?, she doesn't like you anymore?" Owen said. "Hey!" Niall said. "It's true, I think she likes the Japanese guy." Owen added. "Yeah, right. They just met yesterday." Niall said. "Sorry to burst your bubble Owen
"I'm bored." Isa said. "I'm bored too." Niall replied. ,"Well, aren't we all bored", Owen said with a hint of annoyance. "Do you think it's possible that Mr North has other kids?"Isa said. "What do you mean?" Niall asked. "I just think it's possible that's your dad has other kids , you know with another woman. Isa said. "That's disgusting. Why would you even imagine that?" Owen asked. "I don't know", She replied. "I know dad was a beast, but do you think it's possible?" Niall asked. "My God" Owen said angrily. " Can you guys just stop it?" "Wait", Isa said. " Are you uncomfortable.?" She asked. "Very", Owen replied. " Isa ignored him and continued. Haru came in and joined the discussion. "What's shaking guys?" He asked as he sat down beside Niall. "What's shaking?, Are we in the ninetys?" Owen said and scoffed. "If you're curious, Isa said. "Don't", Owen said. "We're thinking of the possibility that Ryan North has other kids aside the North brothers" Isa said. "I think i
FEW DAYS LATER , NOON Isa's Pov I thought Nolan would be bothered by the triplets' arrival but he didn't seem to care. I didn't care either, the more the merrier. I stood up and went to my room. I took out phone and dialed Maeve's number, immediately I heard her voice, I sighed. "So, how did it go with Nolan?" "What do you mean how did it go?, we didn't go anywhere", Isa replied sarcastically. She was wondering why Maeve wanted things to happen between her and Nolan. "That means you're not worried about losing your virginity. You'll eighteen in barely twelve months" "I know that", Isa said and sighed. She always wanted Nolan to be her first and now, he's back. "Are you scared?", Maeve asked and Isa huffed. "You think I'm scared of losing my virginity?, was that meant to be funny?", Isa asked and laughed a little. "Well then , if you're not scared why haven't you guys fucked yet?" "We aren't exactly on talking terms", Isa replied
Isa woke up next to Nolan. Apparently, he had woken up before she did. " Hi", Isa said and Nolan greeted her back. " I'm sorry about yesterday, you probably didn't want to", Isa said as she sat up. She was naked but she didn't care. "You don't have to apologize. It's my job to make your wishes a reality even if we're no longer together." Isa smiled and stood up. "I should probably prepare for school." She said awkwardly as she put on her clothes and left the room. She bumped into Owen on her way to her room. She was nervous. "You finally chose the dick you want." Owen said and walked away. What a weirdo, Isa thought. "Hey", Owen said as he entered Haru's room. Haru sighed when he saw Owen. "Aren't you going to school?", Haru asked and Owen shrugged. " Why are you here again?", Haru asked and Owen sat. "You haven't accepted my apology" Owen said. "If you don't, I'll keep coming. Hurry up, I don't really like going
Owen's eyes widened in shock. Does he want me? me? Owen?. Haru saw the look on his face and sighed. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that... or said that.". He put Owen down and turned away. "I should probably go," Haru said and left. Owen sighed and carried Fluffy in his arms. NEXT DAY Everyone was in the dining room except Haru. "Aren't you gonna eat before you go?" Isa asked, confused. "I'm not hungry," Haru replied. He wanted to go to school immediately. Isa stood up and took her bag. They all stared at her in confusion. "Let's go," Isa said to Haru and they both left. Owen sighed and stared at his plate. He stood up and went upstairs. "Is he okay?" Skylar asked; even though Owen is always mean to her, she couldn't help but worry about him. "To be honest, he's never been okay," Niall responded. I'm sure he'll be fine. "What's going on?", Isa asked. "Don't tell me it's nothing. "It's nothing serious," Har
Owen's Pov I sighed as they left. I can't stop thinking about what Haru said. How can someone like him be interested in me? He's probably trying to get back at me. He even stole my first kiss. Owen shuddered as he touched his lips.He felt a tingling sensation in his ears. I smelled blood. I stared at my reflection in the pool and ... I was right. My ears were bleeding. "Fuck!" I cursed as I cleaned the blood with a towel. I stood up and left the pool. I entered my room and I locked the door. Why are my ears bleeding again? Seriously? I sat at the edge of my bed. Fluffy barked and I carried him. He looked different. I should probably take him to the vet. "Don't worry, boy, I'll take you to the vet tomorrow", I said. "Well, if I don't bleed to death", I added and Fluffy looked at me. "I was just kidding. I'm not going anywhere, I promise." THE NEXT DAY* DINING TABLE Isa was surprised when she saw the triplets in the school un
To everyone out there that were abandoned.Isa's Pov I never thought that I would return to Icarus Falls. I can't believe I once lived here. It brings back so many bad memories. Isa sniffled as she remembers the first day she arrived in Icarus Falls.Flashback Isa fell on her butt as Ryan North, father of the North triplets walked towards her. "Your dad borrowed money from me and since he's dead , I will take you as a compensation. You will live here and work every single day of your life till I get my money's worth." Isa cried as she remembers the day her dad came home beaming with smiles . He had borrowed money from Ryan North for his wife's heart transplant only for her to die three days after the surgery. Out of frustration, Isa's dad took his life.As if being an orphan wasn't bad enough, she had to work for this heartless man and his family to pay back the money her dad borrowed."Understood?" Ryan said, bringing her back to the present. "Yes sir", she replied trying to h
Japan Nolan's Pov It's been four years. Grandma shipped me off to Japan, dad killed mom , I have no idea what became of my brothers. Grandma said she fixed everything, she is the most kind hearted human I know. Her only sin is giving birth to dad. Now, she wants me to return to Icarus Falls. I'm pretty sure she's up to something. She didn't tell me what it is and I didn't ask. The one person I'm scared of seeing is Isa. Even though I miss her so much, she hates me. I don't think she'll want to see me. I broke her heart. I didn't want to, but I had no choice. I had to follow dad's command. I couldn't let anything happen to mom. Sometimes, I wonder how unfortunate she is to have fallen in love with a man like my father. Flashback "Mom!" Nolan called out to his mother as he couldn't see her because the room was pitch black. Ryan had been keeping her in an underground cellar for eight years. No one knew she was there, untill Nolan found her. "My baby", Sere
