“Gram,” Raf whispered.
“Sorry, dear! I just wanted to check on your dad,” Agatha apologized.
“No! Everything is okay! It’s just still painful for me to think about it. My dad is fine. All of us are still hurt because the absence of mom, however we try to hold up,” I answered and smiled.
“That’s good!”
“Thank you very much for your cookies and tea, but I have to go!” I went to the doors. “Goodbye! Have a nice day!”
I left their house, walking automatically. In fact, I was afraid that I would cry. I didn’t like others to see me in this state. But Raf ran after me.“Peanut, are you okay?” he asked, as he approached me.
“Yes...” I trailed off. “You know what? Nothing is okay. It hurts every time someone mentions her. It still looks like a nightmare for me. And the thing is I really want to stop this feeling!”

Come on! Don’t cry. We will see each other soon!” I laughed and hugged her. Neither me nor Lincoln went to Ashley to say goodbye. We were fed up with her sticking all those attempts to hurt us out. Even her voice made my blood boil and I didn’t want to see her ever again. I felt like freedom was coming to me. I wasn’t planning on meeting her soon. We sat in the car and I waved to granny and Bella. Then, we left.“Where were you?” Linc asked me and smiled.“Ohh! I had so much fun!” I started.He smiled again.

When teacher turned to the board, continuing explaining, all of the students started laughing loudly. I felt like I was the one, who did that, somehow. “What? Why are you laughing?” Mr. Adams asked, bewildered. Nobody answered and we continued laughing. I couldn’t help, but laugh too. Then, Raf came in and was still laughing. “Oh, Mr. Adams! Someone glued the sign to your back! Poor you! Why are you laughing, guys? Something like that could happen to everyone!” Raf mumbled and laughed. Mr. Adams took the sign and read it. “Raffael King! This is your doing, right?” teacher screamed. “Me?! No chance in hell!” he laughed and tried to keep a straight face. “Detention!” he screamed and Raf sat back near me. “Look!

Are you kidding me!” Linc maintained.I felt Mia’s hand on my shoulder.“Kylie, are you okay?” she asked me.“This has an explanation! I’m sure! He wouldn’t hurt me after our conversation!” I stated.“But it’s true! Kylie, I know that you are probably looking for an excuse. You like him, but I guess, you have to forget about him,” she whispered, but even in this crowd, I heard it very clearly and loudly.“Mia, I have already told you that I don’t like him!

I looked up and saw Raf looking at our hands and then turning his gaze on me. I shook my head, narrowed my eyes and went to my seat. In fact, my seat was next to Raf, but there was Charlotte. I sat far from them with James. “Why did you do it?” I asked James, not taking my gaze from the copybook.“Well, firstly, I couldn’t make you talk to me another way. Secondly, it made him furious!” James whispered.“Are you blind? It didn’t make him furious at all! He doesn’t care! He is dating Charlotte!” I splashed out my anger.“Is it a problem for you?” He smirked.“No!”“Good, because as I said, you are a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma, and I won’t let someone else solve your mystery!” James exclaimed and backed at the spine of the chair, crossing his hands across the chest.The flash creeped across my cheeks and I stopped tal

Now excuse me, I have lessons to attend,” I answered, as I remembered the fight.“Wait! You need to lie a little bit more,” James added.“I don’t care. I am fine,” I answered and wanted to get up, but my ache got worse.“Ouch!” I stated.“See? You need to stay here!” Raf claimed.“What are you doing here?

What are you doing here?” I asked him, heavily breathing.“Grace asked me to give you a lift!”“Oh, well!” “So you stopped hating me, right?” he asked me.“Well, I hate you less now.” I laughed and he giggled.“This is the progress!” he exclaimed. “You understand that I didn’t do anything wrong, right?

The next day started, as usually, from breakfast. This time, I met my dad.“Hey dad!” I exclaimed, as I went downstairs.“Hey, dear!” he answered and approached me to kiss my cheek.“How are you? How did your surgeries go?” I asked, when I sat in the kitchen near him.“Good, but I’m tired. The surgeries went successfully and you can’t imagine how happy I was when I saved one patient from amputating an arm!”“Oh, Jesus! It’s so scary!” I said, and he nodded. “Dad!”He looked at me, waiting for me to continue.“How do you know, what is right when you do something?” I asked.I thought about my experience and knew, that my dad could give me a piece of advice.“Well, it’s just what your intuition whispers to you.
