Emily's POV:When morning came, the boys and I got ready to head over to my house. I was really scared. I knew the others would be upset by my decision to just leave without telling anyone, but I don't really care. It's not my fault they lied to me."Alright, baby girl, it's time to head home," Issac said softly then laughed at my face."I still want to get to know you guys. Please, can you talk to Xender so I could stay here for another night?" I asked him softly.But all he did was shake his head before grabbing my arms in his."We are always here, love, just a call away, and we all go to the same school, well, except me. I finished school a long time ago."I looked at him before sighing."Alright, if you say so." With a smile from him, we both walked outside the room.The other boys were all waiting for us in the car. They all gave me smiles while I returned smiles of mine. With that, we all drove out of their apartment.When we finally arrived at my home, I could see my brothers s
Emily's POV:The past few days have been fun; my brothers and I are getting along really well, well, except for Kelsey, but the others are all good.The best part is that Xender and Chris are finally allowing me to go to school. It wasn't easy because we had to cry and beg both of them to accept. We even made a cake for them."So, we got everything set for school tomorrow. How are you feeling about this?" Eren asked when he noticed my silence."I don't know, to be honest. I mean, yeah, but also scared about it. What will people think of me?" I said softly before looking around the room."You don't need to worry about that, sissy. Your twin is going to be with you, also the boys, so you won't be lonely, okay?" Austin said with a pat on my head.I giggled softly before looking at Kelsey, who was staring at his phone. I want my brother back. Each time the others and I are playing together, I notice that lonely feeling around him, but he still chooses to ignore me."Kelsey, what do you th
Emily's POV:It was now break time, and I was so happy. I mean, yeah, I'm hungry as hell, but also the looks I was getting were making me so uncomfortable, and I needed to be out of the class to get fresh air.My eyes closed on their own when I felt the nice cold air around me. I know my brother and his friends are looking for me, but I needed a break from them too."Did you think this would be a good hiding spot?" I heard a deep voice ask, making me raise my head.My eyes connected to Angelo's brown eyes. He looked at me with a raised brow before coming to sit next to me."I wasn't hiding from anyone, just need some rest," I whispered, then looked away from his eyes.There was something about him. I don't know what, but I didn't like that feeling one bit. I'm only 13, and I don't need to be liking anyone at the moment."Did you hear me, Emily?" I heard him ask softly, making me smile."Yeah, let's just go; the others might be looking for us," I said, then stood up, finding all means
Emily POV:When I got home, I immediately called my brothers and started yelling like something happened."Tf happened to you, and why are you yelling?" Kelsey asked while glaring at me, making me quiet down.I looked at my fingers before mumbling an apology then looked around for the others."Where are the others?" I asked softly looking around the living room.He scolded me before mumbling something like "around the back."With that, I rushed away from him before giggling like a small child.I saw two of my brothers from far, they were all talking to each other before looking at me when they heard my footsteps."Wassup little one, how was school today?" Chris asked softly when he saw my smile."Good good, I made a friend today," I said happily while jumping around.The others smiled at me then Tony hugged me before saying. "Do you want ice cream, sissy?"Making me jump before running towards the kitchen.The others laughed before following me closely."Where is Xender?" I asked as I
Emily's POV:The next day, I woke up super early to avoid my brothers; I didn't want any of them to see me like this.I looked like someone heading into depression with dark circles under my eyes from lack of sleep and too many tears.I grabbed Tony's purple hoodie and my black pants, then put them on.I made sure to open the door slowly, so as not to attract anyone's attention.It was currently 6 am, and everyone usually wakes up by 7 or 7:30 am.When I noticed the coast was clear, I quickly rushed towards the door, then opened it slowly.Biting my lips, I prayed in my head that our house camera didn't catch me before running out of my house.I looked at the house one more time before letting out a sigh; with that, I walked away before pulling out my phone.I texted Emma, asking if I could come over to hers. I was really happy when she said it was okay, and she was coming to pick me up with her brother.I sat down on the chair next to the main road, looking around with my hands in my
Austin's POV:When morning finally came, I went over to my baby sister's room to annoy her, as I always do. My breath stopped when I didn't see her there, and to make matters worse, she had packed a bag—some of her clothes were missing from her closet.Without thinking, I rushed downstairs, yelling and crying that Emily was gone. The others came out, Chris and Xender holding guns in their hands, looking around as if we were under attack. They stopped me from running, attempting to calm me down, but all I could do was cry.It was Kelsey's fault; now it's happening again. If only he could be a good brother like the rest of us, my baby sister wouldn't have left.When I explained to the others what happened yesterday, Xender was pissed and even beat Kelsey up until he ran out of the house, but he never came back after that. It's like he just ran away from us because he knew he hurt Emily again."What do you mean she's gone? Calm down, boy; you're a grown-ass man," Xender said, but I said
Emily's POV: Emma and I sat in her living room, enjoying some chocolates, when I felt my phone ring for the 11th time in my pocket. Rolling my eyes, I left it there. I knew the boys were all up by now, and they probably wanted to ask where I was, but I needed space from all of them. Emma glanced at me before grabbing her phone and pointing at mine. "You know you can't stay away from them forever, though." "Yeah, I know, but girl, it's hard. I'm tired of fighting with Kelsey, and I'm tired of crying." Emma knew the details of the relationship between me and my brothers. I had shared everything that happened last night, and it felt nice opening up to someone. She hugged me and patted my head, giving me that older sister vibe, even though she couldn't speak. Her actions showed that she cared. "Alright, later let's get home, okay? You and Kelsey need to talk things out. You guys are family, and family always sticks together, so stop fighting like children and work things out." S
Emily's POV:When we got home, I was surprised to see everyone sitting in the living room, looking dead. Emma even giggled at their state, making them look our way.They all stared at us for what felt like hours, and no one said anything until Austin let out a scream and ran toward me, crying. The others followed, and the funny part was they were crying, actual tears rolling down their eyes.After explaining where I had been for the past hours, Xender and Chris thanked Emma and her brother for keeping me safe. With that, everyone started going to their homes, leaving me and my crazy brothers alone.When Emma was leaving, she gave me this look like, "Don't mess this up," before waving to the others. When the door closed shut, my brothers turned towards me slowly. No one said a word until Chris opened up.''I think Kelsey should move out for a while; maybe he needs some time to get used to Emily being around now.'' He said softly while the others nodded in agreement with his decision.I
Amy sat in the mental hospital's common room, her gaze drifting aimlessly over the dull, beige walls. The atmosphere was stifling, filled with the low murmur of other patients and the occasional clink of medical equipment. The room had become her world, a place where time seemed to drag on endlessly, filled with monotonous routines and half-hearted conversations. The weight of her past actions hung heavily on her shoulders, a constant reminder of the chaos she had caused.The door to the room creaked open, and Inishola stepped in, his presence a rare interruption to her daily routine. His expression was a blend of seriousness and sympathy, reflecting the delicate balance he tried to maintain while dealing with Amy. He took a seat across from her, his eyes searching her face for any sign of recognition or emotion."Hello, Amy," he said softly, his voice carrying a note of genuine concern.Amy barely looked up, her eyes remaining fixed on a spot on the floor. "Hello," she replied, her v
: A New Chapter in the Family LegacyThree years had passed since the joyful proposal and subsequent wedding of Emily and Kamsy. The past few years have been a whirlwind of change and growth for the family. Each member had embraced their path, and today’s family gathering was a celebration of those journeys.The large mansion, now filled with the warmth of family and love, was abuzz with activity. The grand living room had been transformed into a vibrant space, decorated with cheerful colors and balloons, a testament to the importance of the occasion. A long table was set with an array of delicious dishes, and the air was filled with the sounds of laughter and conversation.Emily and Kamsy were the proud parents of a beautiful three-year-old girl named Ruby. With her sparkling eyes and infectious laughter, Ruby had quickly become the center of the family’s universe. Today’s gathering was to celebrate the milestones of each family member and to strengthen the bonds that held them toget
Two months had passed since the emotional visit to Austin’s grave. Life had slowly begun to regain its rhythm, and amidst the lingering sorrow, new moments of joy and hope were emerging. The family had found solace in their togetherness, and Emily and Kamsy’s relationship had blossomed further.The evening sun cast a warm, golden hue over the mansion, and the garden had been transformed into a picturesque setting for a special occasion. Fairy lights twinkled in the trees, and tables were adorned with delicate flowers and candles. The atmosphere was filled with a sense of excitement and anticipation, as everyone knew that today was a day to celebrate love and new beginnings.Kamsy had been meticulously planning this day for weeks. He wanted everything to be perfect, not just for himself and Emily, but for their families and friends who had supported them through their trials. With Emily’s favorite songs playing softly in the background and the gentle hum of conversations, Kamsy was rea
The sky was overcast, casting a muted gray light over the graveyard as the brothers made their way through the rows of headstones. It had been a few months since they had buried Austin, and while time had softened the raw edges of their grief, the pain of his loss was still a heavy presence in their lives. Today, they had come to visit his grave not just to remember him, but to honor a promise they had made to him.Inishola, Kamsy, Xender, Tony, and Angelo walked slowly, each step echoing the weight of their sorrow. They approached the familiar headstone, its simple elegance a testament to Austin's life—a life that had been cut too short but had left an indelible mark on those who knew him.Xender was the first to reach the grave. He knelt beside it, his expression a mixture of determination and sadness. "Hey, Austin," he began, his voice cracking slightly. "We’re here. We promised we’d come."Tony, his face lined with fatigue and anguish, stood beside Xender, placing a hand on his sh
Emily and Kamsy had been looking forward to this vacation for what seemed like forever. After everything that had happened—the accidents, the threats, the loss of Austin, and the constant tension hanging over their heads—they needed this time away. A chance to just be together, to reconnect, and to remember what it felt like to breathe without the weight of the world on their shoulders.They had chosen a secluded beachside villa, far from the mansion and all the chaos that came with it. The villa was perched on the edge of a cliff, offering breathtaking views of the ocean. The endless stretch of white sand, the turquoise waters, and the gentle sound of waves crashing against the shore provided the perfect backdrop for their much-needed escape.As they arrived at the villa, the sun was beginning to set, painting the sky in shades of orange, pink, and purple. Emily stepped out onto the terrace, her breath catching as she took in the beauty of the scene before her. "Kamsy, it’s perfect,"
Kamsy had been awake for a few days, but today was special—it was the day he would finally return home. As he walked through the hospital corridor, his steps were slow but determined. The brothers were by his side, and there was a quiet anticipation among them. They were all relieved and happy to have him back.When they arrived at the car, Kamsy took a deep breath, feeling the warmth of the late afternoon sun on his skin. "Feels good to be out," he remarked, glancing at Xender, who gave him a supportive nod."It’s good to have you back, bro," Xender replied, clapping him gently on the shoulder.The drive back to the mansion was filled with light conversation, mostly the brothers updating Kamsy on what had been happening. Kamsy listened, feeling a mix of emotions—grateful to be alive, but also a bit apprehensive. He wondered what it would be like to finally be back in the mansion after everything that had happened.As they pulled into the driveway, Kamsy noticed that the mansion seeme
Angelo drove down the quiet road, the soft hum of the engine the only sound in the car. It was a peaceful evening, the kind where the worries of the world seemed to melt away, if only for a while. He needed this drive, a break from the tension that had been suffocating the family ever since Emily's kidnapping and Amy's betrayal.As he turned a corner, he noticed a little girl standing by the side of the road, her small frame barely visible in the twilight. She looked lost, her eyes wide with fear. Angelo slowed down and pulled over, his protective instincts kicking in."Hey there," he said gently, stepping out of the car. "Are you okay?"The girl looked up at him, her eyes welling with tears. "I... I can't find my mom," she whispered, her voice trembling.Angelo crouched down to her level, offering a reassuring smile. "It's okay, we’ll find her. Do you know where you last saw her?"The girl nodded, sniffling. "At the park... but I don’t know how to get back."Angelo’s heart ached for
Here’s the chapter you requested, focusing on Inishola visiting Amy at the mental hospital.---**Chapter: Inishola’s Visit**Inishola’s heart felt heavy as he walked through the stark white hallways of the mental hospital. The scent of antiseptic lingered in the air, and the sterile environment was a sharp contrast to the chaotic thoughts swirling in his mind. He had been here before, many years ago, when Amy was first admitted. But now, as he approached her room, everything felt different. The past few weeks had unraveled so many truths that he was still struggling to comprehend it all.He stopped at the door marked with Amy's name. The sound of a faint murmur could be heard from within, and he braced himself before gently pushing the door open. Amy sat on the bed, her back facing the door. Her usually vibrant red hair was now a tangled mess, and her posture was slumped. She was staring at the wall, mumbling to herself, lost in whatever world her mind had taken her to. The sight of
It had been a week since Emily’s harrowing experience in the hospital and Kamsy’s slow but steady recovery. Now, she found herself back home, surrounded by the familiar faces of her brothers. They had all gathered in the large sitting room, the tension in the air finally beginning to ease after weeks of turmoil.Emily sat on the couch, her legs tucked under her as she looked around at her brothers. Xender was lounging in an armchair, his typical easygoing smile plastered across his face. Tony was pacing near the window, his hands stuffed in his pockets, his mind racing with thoughts. Chris and Kelsey were seated on either side of her, offering silent support."So, Emily," Xender began, breaking the silence that had settled over them. "What should we do now? We’ve dealt with the threats, we’ve taken care of the loose ends… What’s next?" His tone was light, teasing, but there was an undercurrent of genuine curiosity and concern.Emily looked up at her eldest brother, her eyes reflectin
