“Are you kidding? Hell nah” Logan smiled. Alex turned out to be just as stubborn as he was but that alone wasn’t enough to make him give up, “I’m not about to quit on my best bud. I can’t say he has grown fond of me but I sure have. I kind of learned what made him tick and using …

26. In the Locker Room

Jae worked fast to bring the ball to the enemy’s court but two players blocked his way before he could cross the midline. He tossed the ball overhead. The players’ fingers brushed against the ball but Logan’s hands caught it. Logan spun around and threw the ball towards the basket. It flew all the way to the other side and …

25. The Game

‘Think about it, my butt. If any chance existed for Logan to not be in my life, I’d take it.’ Alex fumed in her room. She sat crossed legged on her bed, thinking of how to get the phone back, to get the whole fiasco over with and to put a seal on it, never opening it again. Alex sighed …

24. Aunt Lilly Knows

Alex stood in front of the sink, wiping the rim of the plate in her hand with a dry towel.It had been 10 minutes since the dinner ended and 5 minutes since Logan left. The house now immersed in silence with only the sound of the water pouring out of the faucet and the clatter of tableware. The dinner actually …

23. Coke and Pepsi

“Absolutely not!” Logan exclaimed, pale-faced and wide-eyed. Alex raised her eyebrows in fake surprise, her corner lip twitching, “You don’t mind?” “I mean, I do. I absolutely DO!” Closing his eyes, Logan pinched the bridge of his nose. Alex snickered at the hint of pink in his ears. All Logan wanted was to meet a nice girl, maybe ask her …

22. Project Planning

“Well, I guess it does. My grandmother was also a twin” Lilly recalled. Unlike her though, her grandmother had an identical twin. She wondered if Ethan would have had a different personality if he was born a girl? What would her life would have been like if she had a sister? “That’s amazing.” Logan gasped. Three generations of twins? Wow, …

The incident would forever leave a mark on both of Logan’s and Alex’ minds.

20. A Thin Seamless Line

Emily could feel Alex’s burning eyes at her but it was alright. It didn’t affect her much. In an innocent tone, she replied, “I didn’t do anything! A friend browsed through my gallery, saw it and showed it to everyone. She spread rumors that I had a boyfriend. I said you were my cousin. Would you believe that these prim …

19. A Natural Ladies’ Man

A stray cat came up to Alex and the ginger furball stroked her legs. She stopped to pet it. It sat still under her touch, “I don’t think there is.” “Are you sure?” Alex knelt to nuzzle the back of its ears and the cat closed its eyes, “… no?” Alex thought about it more. She tried to recall her …

18. Emily Greenwood

“How much is this?” Alex asked the sales lady and the sales lady, who was probably still in college, sighed. “It’s $700” she answered. Alex’s brows scrunched then, read its product description over. The price was higher than her old phone but she can’t say much about the specs. It was pretty vague. She didn’t care much which brands they …
