She left again. “Do you have a bathroom? I need to wash up,” Sarah asked, jumping to her feet. “If you go out to the front room, you’ll see a hallway near the stairs. It’s your first door on the right,” I answered before Enzo could. She stood and left the room. “I’ll give Ray a call,” Enzo s

“Does this happen often?” I asked her. Tears welled in her eyes. “Only when there’s a lot of stress…” she murmured. “I think Scott’s death triggered it.” “Why does this happen?” Brody asked, furrowing his brows together. “You never tell me what’s really going on with you.” She opened her mou
“Did you hear?” Bri asked, a hint of a smile on her lips. “That my son was kissing your daughter?” I asked, raising my eyebrows as I looked down at a very red-faced Kayla. Bri nodded, and then we both glanced at Asher who was staring at Kayla with a pained expression on his face. Awe, my littl
