Three years later_______________“Say cheese!” Preston yelled at us, Maddison right beside him with her arms around his torso as she watched us with a smile. I gave the camera the brightest smile I could muster while both of my parents practically screamed, “Cheese!” Preston had a goofy smile on his face as he looked at the result of the picture and I bounded up next to him to take a peek over his shoulder. I was squeezed in between my mom and dad, towering over my mom’s 4’9 figure with my 5 inch heels. My dad was still slightly taller than me even with these heels on. My dad was wearing a navy blue button up and a tie while my mother was in a white long-sleeved dress that ended just above her knees. They both had wide smiles on their faces, looking proud and overjoyed. My graduation gown was draped over my silver knee-length dress. My graduation cap was slightly tilted and I was keeping a hand on it t

Chapter 102

(2 years after graduation) “Babe, are you sure you remembered to pack the sweets?” Adam asked me from the back of the car. He was in the middle of rummaging the car’s trunk, his head peeking out to regard me with a quirked eyebrow. I turned to face Adam, still trying to stuff my things into my handbag. I strolled towards him and gave the bags littering the car’s trunk a quick sweep. I spotted the red shopping bag and opened it to reveal the chocolates and lollipops I packed. “Oh ye, of little faith,” I tutted Adam with a smile playing on my lips. “I never doubted you for a second,” Adam declared jokingly, pulling me towards him by my waist and giving my temple a kiss. I scoffed at his words, but the smile stayed on my lips as I grabbed a couple of the bags to help him. There were at least 6 of them in there and they didn’t look light. Adam was about to argue but I turned to him and

Chapter 103: Bryant's Story

I've often heard people say that your brain records every second of your life from the second that you were born into this world. I believe in that saying.It might be hard to believe but I faintly remember peeking through the gaps on the side of my sister's crib when she was a baby. I must've been 2 or 3 at the time. She was fast asleep, her fists covered in small mittens to keep her tiny hands warm. The cloth moved slightly as she clenched and unclenched her fists in her sleep. When she brought her fist to her mouth, I stopped it from doing so with a finger."No, baby Casey, dirty. You'll get sick." I whispered softly to the sleepy baby.The small fingers inside the mittens moved as if trying to grip onto the finger that was holding her hands away from her mouth.

Chapter 104: Bryant's Story

4 years before TNCF"Bry, have you thought about what you'd like to study in Uni?" Dad asked as he chewed the little bit of food left in his mouth.I shrugged mindlessly without looking at Dad, scooping up another spoonful of food from my plate."I haven't really thought about it but it'll probably be Business Management? You know I'm not very good at anything that has to do with Science or Art," I answered.I noticed the growing frown on Cassandra's face while listening to our conversation.I can almost hear her inner thoughts rant just by observing the shifts in her facial expressions. "Why do they have to have this conversation now? Bryant is still in the 9

Chapter 105: Bryant's Story

3 years before TNCFI dodged as Casey's foot hurled itself towards me, missing me by a bare inch.I crouched and swiped her legs under her, causing her to fall onto her back on the mattress.She rolled backwards to put some space between us and I used that to catch my breath as sweat trickled down my forehead.We eyed each other up before Casey charged once again, aiming for my midriff.I sidestepped her and grabbed her attacking arm, twisting it and holding her in a triangle lock.With her other hand, she quickly tapped my arm three times and I immediately let go of my grip.

Chapter 106: Bryant's Story

3 years before TNCF"Here, I hope everything works out for you, brother. I'll be back in a few days and try to win some more." I handed the envelope full of money to Joe."Thank you, man. Seriously." He took my hand and shook it, pulling me in for a bro hug."Okay, I've got to go. I'll see you soon." I saluted him and waved with a grin before turning around and leaving the Underground Place with Casey in tow."Why did you give the money to him?" Casey asked.I shrugged, "He needed it more.""But look at your beat-up face. The least you could do is take the money to buy some ointment fo

Chapter 107: Bryant's Story

2 years before TNCFI yawned, stretching on top of the stairs before climbing down the staircase to get to the kitchen. However, I stopped short whilst passing the living room on my way to the kitchen when I caught sight of Joe packing his things hurriedly."Hey, are you leaving already?" I asked him."Yeah, I need to go home and catch my dad coming home and stop him from throwing money everywhere again. We can't have a repeat of last night." Joe said in a rush, zipping up his bag and turning to me.His face was still beat up. We were lucky that his head wasn't split open, though he did get a concussion."Is it even okay for you to leave?" I asked him, unconvi

Chapter 108: Bryant's Story

"Hey, are you home?" Dom asked as soon as the line got connected."Yeah, what's up?" I kept the phone pressed against my ear using my shoulder as I continued to type up my assignment into my laptop."Can you step out for a bit? I need to talk to you about something." Dom said."Oh and try to keep it from Casey." He added after a second. I looked at Casey's sleeping form on the bed beside mine."She's fast asleep, don't worry." I answered, looking back at the dimly lit screen before me and finish typing up one last sentence. The light from the screen was the only source of light in the dark room since I didn't want to disturb Casey's sleep.I loosened my shoulder and let my phone slip

Chapter 109: Bryant's Story

I parked the bike in a hurry and didn't even bother taking off my helmet. I jumped off my bike, immediately bolting up the doorsteps and tried to open the front door. My hand went limp and I exhaled in relief when the door didn't budge open.It's still locked.No one broke in.Casey's safe.My legs suddenly felt like jelly and I lowered myself to a crouch in front of the door before my legs could give out on me.I lowered my head, tucking it between my arms while both of my hands holding the back of my neck.The police are no help.The loan sharks know where we are.

Chapter 110: Bryant's Story

"Maddy...""Why are you doing this?" Maddy asked before I could say anything else.I bit my tongue, keeping my silence."Why are you doing this?" She repeated when I didn't answer.I've thought about this all night and came up with the conclusion that it's best for Maddy to keep her distance from me. I didn't want to relive the anxiety and terror that I experienced last night when I realized that Casey might not be safe. I didn't want to feel that way again over another person.At this point, the less people I have around me, the better.They probably don't know about Maddy yet and I need to keep it that way.
