View More*Ash's POV*“I'm sorry. I had to reach out to Luke,he should have gotten here a while ago”. She said walking towards a sofa.“That's alright. I hope he's good?”. I asked in concern,not like I really cared much.“Yes He is. He'll be with us soon. Something came up that kind of delayed him”. She replied,setting her phone down and facing me. There was a brief pause. The silence was deafening. I knew it was time to be done with the formalities and have a real conversation.“How are you?”.She asked,looking into my eyes. I didn't know much about the nurturing aspect of a mother, but I could see the genuineness in her countenance.“I'm OK. Surviving”. I answered, smiling a bit.“Ash”.She started. “I want to apologize to you for having to grow up without me in your life”.“I turned out fine eventually as you can see”. I replied defensively. I didn't want her to talk to me like she was feeling some sort of pity towards me.“Of course you did but I still have to apologise to you. I'm sure your
*Ash's POV*Ever since I got the information about my mum being alive,I've literally been counting down till the day I finally get to see her. My Dad had eventually reached out to her and planned a day for her to come back to the city with my step brother, Luke. I didn't know how long she was going to be staying but I was just excited about meeting her. I wondered what she would look like now. I was also having thoughts on how it would feel like finally meeting a sibling, and if we were going to have any similarities or would be able to get along with each other.I could barely sleep all through the night. I kept tossing over on my bed and surfing the internet at intervals,pondering on how the day was going to turn out. I was going to be meeting my mum and step brother for the first time and I didn't know how well to prepare myself. For people who I'd never met in my life and who I felt cared less about me,I shouldn't be this bothered but I just could not be at peace__I doubt if they
*sage's POV*I was going to see Richard tomorrow, and I still did not have any tangible information for Him. Ever since I had that conversation with Ash, I started feeling empathy towards him. We started chatting more often compared to the past when we could barely even stand each other’s presence. He had changed a whole lot, and I loved that for Him. My relationship with Cassie was casually hitting rock bottom; our fights and arguments were more frequent, and I no longer cared about trying to make things work between us. I knew we would break up soon, but I didn't know how soon. I had to devise something reasonable to tell Richard and also make sure he didn't find out that I was beginning to talk to Ash often.It was a beautiful Saturday evening; I had just finished having dinner with my family. I sat outside trying to figure out the excuse I would give Richard the next day when I heard my phone ringing. It was Cassie.“Hello?” She greeted from the other end of the line. “Hey, Cassi
*Ash's POV*I wanted to believe what I had just heard,but I was too dumbfounded to even process the information. I was blindsided,my mind was striving to handle the magnitude of what had just been revealed to me. I sat there,staring at my Dad who at this time had moved closer to where I was seated. “Has my whole life been a lie?. What else did he keep from me all these years?”. I thought to myself.“That's a lie. Right?”,I asked in curiosity after a while.“I wish it was”, he replied with a straight face.“What do you mean Dad?. Where is she?. How come she never reached out to know how I've been. Why did you keep it from me for so long?”. I asked rhetorically,pacing frantically around the room. “Son,everything I have done regarding this issue from when it happened till now was for your own good”. He replied, with a note of frustration in his tone.“You can't make that decision for me. What do you even know is best for me? All these years,I've lived without a mother figure in my life
*Ash's POV*I was turning 20 in a few days, and this wasn't what I had planned for my 20th year. I was being suspended from school, having an obsessed ex, being followed around by bodyguards, and not having my privacy outside the house. I sat in my room and thought about how things had changed drastically in a short while and how my life could have been different if certain things hadn't happened to me. Being at home and spending so much time alone had made me realize how lonely and empty I'd felt for an extended period; I was so busy with school and other activities that I didn't even get to notice. The only person that brought me happiness and comfort at the moment was Skylar, and we didn't get to see as we used to; I missed her so much and longed to be with her. These were periods in my life where I began to wish my Mum was still alive or at least I had other siblings rather than being an only child; maybe things might have been quite different. Recently, My Dad tried to be more av
Sage's POVLife has been so chaotic recently. Everything felt forced and overwhelming. I was beginning to realise that my feelings for Cassie were wearing off gradually, and I was quite grateful for that. I'd rather remain single than be with someone like Cassie long-term. Ash was celebrating his birthday today, and for strange reasons, both Ash and Skylar had reached out to me to ask if I would love to attend. I felt it was a plan for them to spite Cassie in a way because I saw no other reason why they would want me around. I knew Cassie was going to be really furious when she found out, but this was an opportunity for me to see him, as it had been difficult for me to get any information about him that I could give to Richard. Since he was suspended from school, I didn't have any alternative way to access him.I reached out to Him online a few times, though, to check up on Him and know how he was faring, and he was quite nice in his response.“Happy Birthday to you, outcast”, I said p
*Skylar’s POV*I couldn't bring myself to break the news to My Parents when I got home. I thought about a number of things I could do to avoid the situation __run away from home for a few days. I had never done that before and I wasn't sure I had the courage to even do it. Pretend to be sick. The truth was still going to come out eventually. Ash Damon had promised to speak to them himself and I couldn't be more grateful. I had planned to tell them over Dinner but all I had to do now was inform them that Ash Damon requested a meeting with them which was easier to do.“Are you alright Sweetheart?”.My Mum asked, staring at me.“Yes Mum. School was quite stressful this week. So many things happened that were quite exhausting. I'm just glad that it's the weekend already, at least I'll get to rest well enough”,I replied.“Welldone Love. You're doing so well and I'm sure all your hardwork will pay off in the nearest future. Just keep at it”,My Dad said, with a warm smile on his face.“Aww, T
*Ash's POV*My Dad had finally hired the Bodyguards that he spoke about and in a way I felt constrained. The particular one that was always available seemed too nosy for my liking and there seemed to be something off about him. He always wanted to know everything going on with me and my Dad and always voiced out his opinion like he was a member of the family.I drove back home thinking about how I would break the news to My Dad. He was just recovering fully and this wasn't the kind of information that should be reaching Him in a time like this. I honestly thought Cassie was over me and really wanted to move forward that's why she came to me. I didn't know the apology she gave was a sort of bait and I foolishly fell for it. I pondered on all the possible punishments that would come from my Dad finding out about this and I panicked a bit.“Good afternoon Dad”,I greeted. He was home when I got back and I thought it was best to tell him as soon as possible.“Hello Son. How was school toda
*Ash's POV*I had just arrived at school and I noticed the stares from other students were a bit unusual today. I initially thought it was because of Ash and what had happened with him lately but the looks didn't seem like pity or care so I was a bit worried. Something else must have most definitely happened.“What's going on?”,I asked nervously. How was he supposed to know? We obviously just arrived at school together and there was no way he would have known.“I have no idea. The looks are scary as hell. I just hope no one has done anything funny. I guess we'll know what's up before the end of today”,he answered and bade me goodbye. I didn't feel good, whatever was the reason for this stares,I knew it was not anything positive and I could feel that strongly in my gut. I didn't even know who to ask because the only person that was closest had no idea of what was going on,I just had to be calm till someone finally let it out. The bell had just rang,signifying lunch break and the end of
