CHAPTER 16 PetrichorPetrichor- the scent of rain on dry earthOrigin: Greek16After visiting their mother's tomb, it was almost twelve noon when we left there and I'm terribly starving right now. The car paved way to the gravel road and I saw us arriving on the pathway of this old looking house. Tracy seemed so excited to be here but Nick was just quiet after we left the cemetery."Starving Savannah?" Tracy gazed at me over the rear view mirror."A little." I answered."Don't worry. Nick is here. He knows how to cook." She says before unbuckling her seat belt.When they stepped out of the car, I did too. I pulled my blouse down to cover my showing skin above my garter and then finally stared at the white colored house. Vines were creeping on the corners of the house and I see a patio swing right on the porch. I walked behind them as we march our way near the house."Who owns this house?" I asked."We do. It's where we used to live before we headed college." Tracy answered.Nick ins

I prop up my leg leaning it on the toilet bowl just below his crotch and placed his hand on my leg.I.Put.His.Hand.On.My.Leg.Holy hell.His arm draping across my leg and I wish my hands would calm down and not shake while I clean his wound. As I start putting alcohol over the cut with the cotton ball clipped with the tweezers, I push all of my hair to one side so it won't intervene while I'm cleaning his wound. I was amazed that he doesn't flinch at all from the stinging pain. He just sat there and doesn't make a sound. I was even silently wincing for him but he just watches me work quietly. We didn't talk as always.I don't know if he was looking at his hand or thinking if I was doing it right even though I know what I'm doing, or he was looking at my face. I don't know because I'm too nervous to look a

CHAPTER 18 SerendipitySerendipity- finding something good without looking for it18"I'm very attracted to you Savannah." He repeats.My heart leaps."But I just don't want those extra other stuff between us." He added while holding the back of his neck.My eyebrows furrowing."Other stuff?" My voice shying away."Those boyfriend and girlfriend thing. I don't want that." He said firm.Holy hell.I just do not know what to say to him or even how to react to that thing he just confessed to me. I wait for a little more to rethink again and then think a lot more. He just admitted to me that he just wants to have sex with me. He doesn't want those sweet little things done in a relationship. He doesn't want it to lead into something. He wants sec from me. Nothing but sex.I should be punching him or hitting him with my fists and I should be mad at him because that's what he's only after me but the fact that he chose to kiss me after those straight eight years, makes me flatter. I find it

I asked.Catherine looks over at me while I was chopping the spices she needs for the spicy spaghetti she's teaching me. She laughs and stands behind my back as she pressed her front on me."Love, that's too small..." she giggles."Is it?" I pulled my head up to her."But don't worry. It'll work out just fine later I guess." She leans over and kissed my cheeks while her blond hair falls to my left shoulder.I smile at her.She keeps kissing my cheek while her arms were holding around my chest. Her breasts pressed against my back. Catherine was teaching me how to cook and even though I hate cooking, she forced me to and since I love her so much, I allowed myself to learn.

Well, you didn't respond to my first letter so basically I'm the one doing the talking.I smile.How's Melissa? Have you received her first month present? I'm proud of those since I was the one who picked most of it. All of it, actually. I hope everything will fit her. To be honest I really had a hard time picking those since I don't know what's her size. I chose the cutest outfits I saw and I've googled some baby clothes for girls so I had a few ideas. I'm sorry for acting like a father to her, I just felt comfortable when I held her on my arms that day.I stared at the baby clothes that he sent me and m

CHAPTER 89 LieLie- statements which are untrue; to make an untrue statement with intent to deceive; to create a false or misleading impression; to bring about by telling liesOrigin: Middle English89There was a huge gift on Damon's hand and I was surprised with it. He bought a gift to Melissa but never dared to give it? Why? This means a lot to me because out of all Melissa's birthdays he never, not even once, gave her a gift. Every family occasion or special holidays like Christmases, he never gave her anything. Never.Even though I hate Damon so much because of all the cruel things he has done to me, this tiny thing he did for Melissa is huge, considering Melissa doesn't even bring his last name. It means he does love my daughter. He's at least beginning to love her. I know Damon is still a nice guy despite what he has become now, and he has his days all the time but right now I am really moved.He looks at me. "What are you doing here?""Is that a gift?" I asked. "For Melissa?"
