She was not alone

“It was my sister” He replied looking down with embarrassment.

“Laina?” Mark and Oliver asked in unison.

They were beyond taken aback. I mean everyone in the room except for me, obviously. I always had my doubts but I couldn’t just confront her without proof.

“How dare you put the blame on my daughter…!” Aunt Melissa shouted at her own son.

“I am speaking the truth, mom! I saw her locking the door that day. She told me Rose is evil and we should get rid of her!” Theo shouted back.

“I was a child back then. So, I accepted whatever my older and wiser sister told me, but not anymore. This time I decided to use my own judgement when she came back to stay with us, and in this short moment of her stay, I don’t think she did anything to be treated with hate. Instead, it was always us who started it, Rose only fought back as it was her right to do. Why would she tolerate our nonsense. Never once she started the fight” Theo fought for me which shocked me the most even more than his own mother.
