All Chapters of Suppressed Memories : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

James There was no denying the attraction between us because the kiss we shared was like something I have never experienced before. My thumb hand lingered on her cheek for far too long before she looked at me and I was lost in her eyes. We were both lost in each other’s gaze. She was indeed beautiful and the silence between us made the pull much stronger because everything else didn’t matter as I drew my lips closer to hers. I kissed her and she was stiff only for a second before she parted her lips and kissed me back. I don’t know how long the kiss lasted but I didn’t want it to end but she eventually pulled back looking at me with her unreadable eyes. Did she regret it? I certainly didn’t? She created space between us as she fell silent cle

James A week has passed. Harper was still mad at me because she met with Nigel at the mall last Saturday. She spent the rest of the week going to college alone. She barely spoke over ten words to me. It was not my intention after she had left with a warning not to meddle, but as I was on my way to my date. I had a call with Nigel and had mentioned her date and the warning. Nigel is like me. Protective. He did the exact thing I would have done on my behalf and I’m grateful, but now we are facing the wrath of a teenager in love. Nancy suggested we have lunch at their place today so we can be more supportive and have time to know Conrad. She also warned that if we became hostile, she would take it upon herself to make things harder for Nigel and me.  "Harper!" I shouted. "Come on, we g

Kioni I felt like a feather as we drove off in silence after we left Nancy and Nigel’s house. I was happy to be around them for once, something very rare for me. I have always tried to avoid even the smallest gatherings my mother had with her friends like the plague but today I had a great time. They didn’t ask any more questions that I could not answer. They were not pushy but understanding and great company that I would do it again soon. In fact, I can’t wait to have lunch or dinner with them again sometime. A new wave of sadness washed over me as my smile faded because I thought of my brother. I would do anything to see him again and I was sure he was watching me from a distance. I could feel it and every time I looked back or stopped to see it was as if he was closer. I began imagining Adam and my biological parents sitting together having a meal. I closed my eyes leaning on the window trying to reign in tears that were threatening to come out. “You okay there babe?” James asked

Kioni I lost something ten years ago. I remember the bracelet. It has to do with why Adam broke in. I was having flashes and they were clear. Adam was on the floor bloody from a gunshot wound. He told me to run but not before he told me the bracelet had our legacy. Something important. He lied to you and you need to run. Trust no one, only Sebastian. Find him, he will explain. They did this to us and the bracelet has the proof you need to fight. It’s up to you to make them pay, sis. I love you Kiki. Adam’s words were loud in my head and clear. They were like a chorus in my head sounding louder and louder.

Kioni I was running out of options and I didn’t know what to do. I was afraid and clueless as to where I should go. I can’t trust anyone anymore and I was beginning to regret telling my foster parents about my memory. It pained me to say foster but the memory of my biological parents being dead hurt more. I couldn’t remember them, but they were dead. They had been dead all along and this explains why no one came for me.  I considered going to the police, but I was scared. I didn’t know what to think anymore. My head was beginning to pound and feel heavy. I was exhausting myself trying to think of a plan. I needed my brother now more than ever. I was back at my apartment busy packing. I had no idea where I was going. I have been tense and on edge. There was a ping on my phone. Jam
