LilyThe party ended at almost one in the morning. We got back home with Wade but he never bothered to speak even a word to me the whole time.I thought he was just maybe tired. However, the need to thank him took over me. Plus, thanking him won’t take much longer and I’m sure I am suppose to do it now.He was halfway reaching his room when I stopped him.“Thank you for what you have done tonight. If it weren’t for you, Iris wouldn’t have stopped at all,” I continuously say.Wade just looked at me with his tired eyes, not saying anything.I pulled Evan and Zoey with me and asked them to as well as thank Wade for bringing them into the party.As soon as they opened up their mouths to thank him, a smile suddenly formed into his stone-like face a while ago.His expression softened and even said good night to them before leaving.And I was left puzzled. So only Evan and Zoey can make him smile? While he will not even bother to say a word to me?I was left definitely confused and even sta

LilyEvan and Zoey were both seated in the back seat while I was in the front passenger seat. I kept looking back at Evan to see how he was doing.His eyes were still heavily shut as he embraced himself with the jacket I let him wear.“What happened to him?” Wade questioned.“I don’t know either,” I began, shrugging. “I left them with Mandy because I needed to work extra hours at the restaurant and when I came back they were already asleep. But before I could sleep with them, I noticed Evan’s whimpering and had a high fever,” I explained, hugging myself as the coldness of my wet clothes began to hit me.I didn’t notice that almost half of my shirt was wet because of the heavy rain outside while my hair was dripping wet causing me to shiver in coldness.Wade tilt his body to grab something on the backseat while keeping his other hand on the steering wheel and his eyes on the road.I didn’t realize what it was until he handed me a black jacket of his.“Thanks,” I timidly replied, before

LilyThe day after Evan was brought from the hospital, they decided to attended school. I was hesitant to let him go as I am afraid that he might not yet be at his best.But he really wanted to go to school, so I’ve got no other option but to just make sure he’s really fine.I planned on staying at the house to do some chores and just in case his teacher calls me for Evan, I will be able to attend as soon as possible. While Wade was out to somewhere I had no idea.As a knock rang behind the door, I went to attend to it. I wasn’t expecting any visitor today, not even Mandy so I was surprised to know someone’s outside.“Lily, can I talk to you for a minute?” the seriousness of Aiden’s voice immediately made me nod, widely opening the door to let him in.There was no hint of joy on his voice including his face as if he’s here for something serious and important.I lead the way to the dining table as he followed.“It’s about your twin sister, Lauren,” he announced, pulling out a chair on

LilyAfter making sure Evan and Zoey entered the room, I thought Wade would as well isolate himself inside his room. But I was completely wrong when he stepped into the dining room and leaned by the wall near the table with his hand slid in his pockets.His eyes were carefully watching me with his squinted eyes as if he was trying to read what was going inside my mind.I was confused by his sudden action and was about to ask him what he was doing when the chair beside me made a creaking sound.Aiden stood up from it with his eyes fixed on Wade intently. Meanwhile, Wade’s eyes, which were on me a while ago, were as well as Aiden’s now.They were looking at each other with tension visible on their eyes. Aiden’s hand was clutched into a tight fist while Wade’s eyebrows were furrowed along with his clenching jaw.I felt like they both just holding themselves back and could burst out any second by now. That’s why I held Aiden’s arm just to get his attention. Within a second, he turned back

IrisI did the things I didn’t imagine I could do just for him. I did everything.Everything just for me to be noticed by him. Just for me to believe that I actually deserve someone like Wade. That I will someday get his attention if I do everything.So being engaged with Wade is something I worked hard for. I don’t know what with Lily that Wade loved her too much and can’t even throw his attention to anyone but her. It appears that she poisoned him like a drug Wade coudln’t get enough of.Back then when we were in college, the first time seeing him I already knew Wade was my dream man. I promised myself I’d end up with him even though I knew he had a girlfriend.I tried to do everything just to get his attention, but I always failed as his eyes were always on Lily. She was nothing but a nerd and such an old-fashioned style woman. She is nothing compared to Wade.That’s why when I found out Lily had gone out of nowhere and left Wade alone. I took that chance with him.He was left wo
