“Concern for your friend? Is that all?” Lilly cocked an eyebrow, “How do you even know about Alex’s identity?” Carla faced the lawyer once more. Her ponytail swayed from the sudden movement. Not averting her gaze, she replied, “If I really wanted Alex exposed, wouldn’t I have done more than what I did? Like remake the folder and find a …

Carla tapped her pen on her notebook. A yawn escaped from her peach lips. Her aegean eyes threatened to close. Her deep brown hair pulled into a ponytail, she rested her jaw in one hand. Math in the morning had become the bane of her existence. Not only did she find it difficult but the class happened when she would …

Emily sat in Lilly’s office. Her aunt’s desk stood on one side while a small sitting area stood at the opposite end. Unable to disturb Lilly, Emily chose the sitting area. She hunched over the coffee table, arms folded over it. She sighed. Her fingers picked up a metal ball and pulled it. Taking a deep breath, she released it. …

“I still don’t know which play to use,” Alex stated. She stared at her laptop screen. Feet on the chair across from her, she hunched over the table. She had taken her notebook and Logan’s. Then, she created a word file and typed out their ideas written on them. She separated the sheet into 2 columns. One filled with hers …

“Hey, hey, hey, look who is here! Mr. Not-Single-Anymore!” Logan halted his steps. Colin also stopped beside him. The second floor of the Parker Mansion had several rooms. In order for him to reach his room, he needed to pass several others. One of them included his twin’s room. Jae’s bedroom door stood ajar. The people inside easily spotted Logan …

Colin reached for her hand instinctively. With the sudden burst of people, it would be easy to lose each other. “This is such a big place. What else is here?” Lauren …

“The Stitz Inn?” Lauren raised an eyebrow. They headed back to the center of the park for some lunch. Out of ideas on what to eat, she let Colin pick out the place. He didn’t take long to decide. His feet immediately took them to the largest food place. It occupied the longest stall with chairs and tables in front …

“Wow, what a rush!” Lauren gushed. She stepped aside, nearly bumping into someone. Eyes on the sky, she stretched her arms and arched her back. The exhilaration from the ride woke up any sleeping senses she had. She felt more awake now than earlier. She couldn’t wait for what the day had in store. Lauren turned around, “Hey, Colin—” The …

Lauren’s foot stepped on the floorboard. Her torso twisted slowly, her ankles rotated in synchronization. Basking the view from the middle of the amusement park, her eyes didn’t know which to look at first. Their blue hue had become vibrant from the sun’s rays. Her mouth slightly parted from her quiet gasp. Rides of all heights and shapes loomed against …

“Aaahhh, kabedon!” Emily squealed, her breathing stuck on exhale. The cards crinkled under her grip. Her nerves brimmed with uncontrollable emotion. Her heart felt like it would leap out of her chest. Her feet shuffled on the chair several times. Alex’s head snapped up. She frowned, “Kabedon?” “Yeah, it’s where a person has someone up against a wall. Usually, the …
