Brianna's POV

"Where are you going?" Rogue asked with a creased forehead.

I chewed my bottom lip and glanced at the food before answering. "Kate needs me."

He sighed and pulled himself up. "Let me drive for you—"

"It's okay. You haven't eaten."

"So you are. Let's go."

"Rogue, just stay here. You're tired, I know."

He stared at me for a few seconds. I can see annoyance flickering in his eyes. He clenched his jaws as his eyes darkly stared into mine.

"I'm going with you, Brianna."

The door suddenly swung open and it revealed Kate. She entered and froze after she realized I'm not alone.

"Kate!"

She pressed her lips together and walked towards me. I held her arm. "Are you okay?"

She nodded as she looked me in the eyes and whispered… "H-Hugo found my pt."

My eyes widened in shock. "What?"

    Brianna’s POVAfter going to the police station, I went straight to the mall to buy something. I went inside a toy store and chose an average size. I’d like to pick the biggest but Essy might not be able to carry it.“Is it for your daughter, ma’am?”I just smiled at her because I saw a toy car. I grabbed it and checked it. For Brent, I guess?I noticed a toy pick up truck and I smiled unconsciously. I remember the day I saw Rogue riding an old pick up truck. He told me the story about the pickup and now I understand why he treasures that car so much.“I’ll buy these.” I handed the doll and toy car to the saleslady.While I was waiting for her to come back, I checked the other items. I didn’t know I’d enjoy looking at the toys in this store. Never in my life have I imagined this. I didn’t even enjoy my childhood.“Here, ma’am.”I smiled and accepted the paper bags. I handed her my card. “Here.”“Just a moment, ma’am.”I nodded and roamed my eyes again. After getting my card back, I le

I brought my own car so let’s just convoy if you want to go to my condo.”He took a deep breath and nodded. He let go of my face and clenched his jaws as he pushed his hands inside the pocket of his pants. He watched me intently and I just looked at him blankly. I suddenly lost my energy.“Okay,” he whispered huskily. “I’ll just follow your car.”I nodded and started walking away. I felt something suffocating me inside as I walked away from him. I can live without him but I can’t promise I’ll be hap

You want to get even with me so you made me fall for you—”“That’s not true!” He groaned painfully and shook his head. “Babe, I will never do that to you.”“Y-You said you were crippled for almost two years and from what I remembered, I was the one driving when the accident happened. Rogue, I was the reason you suffered. Don’t tell me you’re not mad about what happened.”“Of course, I was,” he said and clenched his jaws.

Diane was inside, looking at her own fingers.“Go home,” I said coldly as I walked towards her and sat beside her. “Essy and Brent are alone in the house.”She lifted her face and looked at me. “Are you gonna kick me out of your house?”I sighed lazily. “What do you think of me, Diane? And you’re already 21 years old. Stop acting like a child.”She pulled herself up and looked at me with tears pooling in the corner of her eyes. “Don’t tell me w
