All Chapters of The Stranger In My House: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

I sigh as I ring it for the third time. This time, I hear the door lock click.It then opens, but who I see is almost enough to make me faint.What the hell is Jason doing here?!.........“Hey.” He says.He smiles in a flirtatious way.Oh goodness, somebody help me.“Hey.” Sterling says.“If you don’t mind, we need to get in the apartment.” He continues. His voice holds authority.“Oh. Yeah, sure man.” Jason says as he opens the door wider.I want to disappear!Sterling gestures me to step in and I do so. He

My memory of her is returning in bits and pieces, but I’m grateful. Everything is turning normal again and I pray it stays that way........“Hey, girl!” Lizzie hits me. She sounds excited and bored at the same time. I didn’t even think that was possible.I hug her and she half hugs me back.She enters the house holding a box. I wonder what’s in it.“What’s with the box?” I ask as I close the door.She walks right past me and enters in the living room. She flops on the couch and puts the box on the coffee table.The box is light brown and not too large. It also doesn’t lo

“No, Rose. It’s not just that. It’s so much bigger than that.” I hear Sterling say and then the call ends abruptly.Sheesh..............What does he mean?I sit on the couch next to Wesley. He’s watching a show on the TV. It’s one of his favorites, it’s called “The Flash”.He has been obsessed with it from the  very moment it was released. At a point, he even thought he could develop superpowers. I laughed way too hard at him then.But now, I’m not so sure. If ghosts can exist, why not super-humans?“Wesley.” I nudge him to get his attention.

“Sure, thanks for staying anyway. And thanks for not letting my rude boyfriend die from a broken wrist.” I say and everyone laughs.I’m not sure Sterling would have though, if he heard what I just said............Today is a new day. To be specific, the day of one of my midterms. I’m not nervous, it’s Liberal Arts. I always do well in it.I’m at school and the funny thing is that Sterling has this particular class too, along with Wesley.Wesley and Lizzie went home last night and left me with my mother and Sterling. It was a quiet morning. A very quiet one.Mom was occupied with work and Sterling pretended that I was invisible.Wh

I turn around and I smile brightly.“How did sitting on the throne make you feel?” I say. I’m referring to him being supervisor today.He smiles softly.“Do not talk to me, Rosie.” His voice is calm and collected.What?.................“What do you mean ‘Do not talk to me’?” I ask him.He can’t be serious.“Exactly what those words mean, Rosie.” He says while maintaining his smile. He looked adorable at first but now he looks like a serial killer.I sigh loudly.
