Chapter 61

AIDEN“For the weekend…?” I was pretending not to act like I hadn't just received a text from an unknown number that happened to coincide with the news she was just breaking to me. “So soon? I thought you do arts on the weekends…”“Well, I'm just trying to do something else besides the paints and canvases. It could get boring sometimes if I continue the same way over time. I need a break Aiden…” she said with a sigh. “I'll just go somewhere with some friends and try to unwind a bit for the next couple of days, and I'll be back.”For some reason, I wasn't happy about the weekend which would give me time to be alone with Ellie. I found myself wondering if my mother was telling the truth about where she was off. It was all just lining up too perfectly for me to believe immediately.“And I won't be going with my car. But that's not a license for you to use it for whatever you want to use it for.” She said sternly with a straight face. “You're going to stay away from it as much as you can.

Chapter 62

ELLIEI couldn't help but wonder why Aiden was acting all weird this morning. Why had he been so eager to see his mother entering that grey Honda? He had been standing for a couple of moments after she had left. For a couple of moments, he had looked as distraught as someone who had been abandoned by his lover. Good thing I wouldn't be home that Saturday so I wouldn't have to put up with him all day.I said nothing as he turned to return inside the house. He barely had his eyes in my direction, almost as though he was avoiding me completely. A part of me wanted him to look at me, so I could look away, but he didn't even look. He was acting like I was simply one of the furniture at the dining table. He headed right out of the living room, and made his way back to his room, ignoring his breakfast on the table and me as well. I fought the temptation of asking him what was wrong with him all that time I was seated at the table. He still owed me my bottles of vodka, and I hadn't forgott

Chapter 63

AIDENI was in no mood for any of Ellie's antics. It had me feeling low with the way I was showing her subtle signs of jealousy towards her. That way I would be giving her all the power over my emotions.At that point, I wanted to get myself to be at the top of my game and nothing else. I had a pickup game to attend and I hadn't gotten any shots up. It made me feel a bit less confident in myself. Coupled with the fact that Kai would be there, I felt like I was in for a horrible weekend.Besides all of that, I had felt bad for having suspected my mother wrongly for having someone else. I had yet to delete those awkward texts from my phone. I felt bad for having thought that she could go lower than her standards. As I stepped out to make my way to the garage, I looked over at the house of my mother's neighborhood friend whom she had claimed to go on a weekend getaway with. That was added evidence to prove that I had been wrong.Mrs. Kirsten’s home was looking all empty and deserted. Sh

Chapter 64

ELLIEThe ride in Aiden's car was quite an awkward experience. It was quite hard for me to understand why he hadn't refused my request which had sounded more like an order. Aiden pulled over, without saying a single word throughout the ride and was about to end it all without breathing a single syllable to me. There were just too many things going through my mind as I was about to make my way out of the car.I thought about thanking him for the ride, but then, I and my ego turned down the idea without thinking twice about it. At once, I was on my way to Jasmine's front porch where she and the others had been waiting for me.Just to be sure he wasn't staring, I turned to look at Aiden. For some reason, I believed he had taken his eyes off right at that moment when I turned to look at him. He seemed to have his eyes fixed on his phone.“Well… I couldn't care less…” I reminded myself as I was about to meet up with Jasmine and the rest. I felt bad for having kept them waiting for so long

Chapter 65

AIDENIt was hard to get my mind off what had just happened with my mother as it had suddenly changed the flow of my entire day. I tried to tell myself it was all her personal life and I didn't have a right to say anything about it. But then, I was really scared in no small way as I realized just how weird things could get if she happened to have been cheating on Ellie's father with someone else. Worst of all, the marriage wouldn't follow through and I was going to lose contact with Ellie. I feared that more than anything, and it had me deep in my thoughts and trying to catch my breath in the sea of my worries.“Aiden!” I was almost fidgeting when I heard one of my teammates calling out to me. In the heat of my worries, I suddenly froze on the court and was completely motionless from it all. There were just a lot of things going wrong at the moment, as I was watching the opponents scoring us at will. “What the fuck’s going on?” They were livid that I wasn't bringing my A-game to

Chapter 66

ELLIEI didn't get why she had to be making that call there at that moment. It felt like the sound of her voice had suddenly brought a cloud over the beautiful sunny Saturday.“You had the nerve to hang up on your mother the last time I called you…” she sounded deranged as she spoke hurriedly in a hushed tone that made her sound dangerous. “You just have five months and some days and I'll be back for you and your father…”The thoughts of my childhood and those dark times of being stuck all alone with her at home came playing back in my head in full color. She was simply everywhere in my head.“By the way, you have no idea just how much we would have to discuss when I'm finally out of here…” she said. “You just brace yourself for—” Just like I did the last time, I hung up on her without thinking twice about it. I couldn't afford to have a breakdown when everyone was gearing up to have fun. I would be killing the energy of the whole outing and I didn't want to be guilty of that.“You r

Chapter 67

ELLIEMy heart was racing frantically as I was trying to navigate my way through the park. It was a bad time to get lost in Manhattan, and I was soon going through every tree, as I felt naughty for being so careless with my wanderings.I had left my phone back at the tree where our little picnic was happening, and that had me lost all alone on an island. It was hard getting myself to talk to strangers at that point, but then, being in a park so big was about to push me to the limits of my social boundaries.The challenge of who to ask around was the next I had to confront. It was quite hard to find a face that was the most approachable. My heart was racing frightfully with each passing moment, as I felt myself going farther and farther away from them with each passing moment. There was no way I could reach any of them, and that made my predicament all the more hopeless. In those few moments, I saw everyone having the time of their lives as they were all enjoying the beauty of the par

Chapter 68

ELLIE“What the fuck…?” I was living the trailer of a horror movie at that point as I was trying to get myself not to panic in front of him. They had left without me and that had me a bit annoyed, if not betrayed.“Ellie?” Dylan called out to me like he had known me for years. His voice was the last thing I needed to hear at that point, as his smooth tenor did nothing but distract me with sensual thoughts of what his voice sounded like in bed. “You alright?”I was quiet for the next couple of moments as I was trying not to give him the satisfaction of getting a response from me. At the same time, I didn't want him to know that I was stuck in this strange place with no idea of how to get home from there. “Ellie…?” He called out to me again and I was hitting him with a mean gaze which shows that I just wasn't interested in an unprofitable conversation. But he seemed not to care as he went on with his question. “Could you at least tell me what's going on? You don't look so good…”“Just

Chapter 69

ELLIE“I fucking knew it…” Dylan said as he saw the rain had begun, and it poured heavily like it had been held back for quite a while. “Well if I had been your friend, and I knew this rain was coming, I would have left you without a second thought.”The smile on his face disappeared as he saw the annoyed look on my face, which made it clear that I was in no mood for any of such jokes.“Okay, my bad…” he said, as he took up his hands in subtle surrender. Then he started the car and was ready to move Good thing we were in the car already. I had never been glad about making any decision like I was glad that I had decided to get in Dylan's car. I would have been struggling to find some sort of shelter in the park while getting even more lost in the process. He looked pretty nice and acted pretty nice, even though I couldn't help but suspect that his niceness had been for a reason. It seemed like he had some ulterior motive for it. I still couldn't get my mind off what Jasmine and th

Chapter 70

AIDEN“Who are you?” For the next couple of moments, I didn't look at Ellie. All my attention and hate had been directed towards the dude who had been standing there with her under the same umbrella. I just couldn't keep my jealousy from exploding at that point. It was hard to put up an act of coolness while seeing her standing so close to him. Being drenched in the rain, her clothes clung to her, and that made them a bit more revealing. That went a long way in inciting more jealousy in my heart than I could take. “Aiden, calm down…” Ellie let out, making me sound like I was some sort of mad dog who had willed himself away from its chains by mistake. “Hello…” Dylan was smooth and cool while Aiden was being as annoying as ever. “Nice to meet you, Aiden. That's quite a way to thank someone who gave your girl a ride home in this pouring rain. You are welcome and I appreciate it.”“He's my stepbrother…” she was quick to correct the impression I had created, even though she looked like
