Genevieve
"Who's downstairs Don?" I asked him, halfly opening the door to his room and watching him get distracted with his phone "Don."

"What's up again?" He said putting up attitudes.

"Someone's downstairs, saying from mom."

"Oh, that's my tailor. I'm getting measured for my clothes for prom."

"Well hurry because he's the only one downstairs." I said before shutting the door and hearing his footsteps right behind me till I turned towards the direction to my room. I waited for hours awaiting mom's arrival from work, I've got to tell her me and Phil reconciliation and everything else on my mind and clearing my doubt on Phil. Okay maybe I was just thinking too much because Phil just can't break our eight years relationship and also kill my best friend, he had no reason to actually, I barely even see them talk only if it involves any of them and when Faith teases me about him, in his presence and I'll pretend to put on a strong face like a nine year old kid trying to keep a straight face after seeing her crush to avoid that inevitable smile that would eventually crawl to my face.

I didn't even know I had spent about thirty minutes pondering on my life before I dozed off and I was woken by my brother.

"Do you wanna go out?" He inquires like he didn't just wake me from my peaceful sleep. I try to sit on my bed, refraining myself from strangling him right here.

"Is that why you woke me?" He sensed the annoyance in my voice while I yawned and rubbed the sleepiness out of my eyes even if I was still sleepy.

"Is mom home?" I asked again.

"Yep, I already asked her on or for your behalf and guess what-"

"I'm not going, I've got something to say to mom." I cut him off finally getting off my bed.

"You could tell her next time." He said.

"Well go out next time but this can't wait." He sends me his infamous pout like he was still a kid.

"I squinted my eyes at him, "mom seized your phone again?"

"Just because I asked you if we could go somewhere doesn't mean she seized my phone." He folded his hand, heading to my door

"Then prove she didn't seize it." I kicked him before he left, banging my door that made an echoing sound. I finally went downstairs to meet my mom who was busy with her legs crossed over the other on the stool with her right hand holding a mug of steaming coffee as she was engrossed in a magazine.

"Hey mom." I called for her attention before sitting next to her.

"You're awake already?" She asks but I didn't know how to answer that

"Uhmmm…" she notices my fidgety fingers interlocking between each other.

"Genevieve, what happened again?" She turns fully to me, her eyes glinting giving off curiosity.

"I just talked about things with Phil
and it seemed… we are better now and he'd convince me it wasn't him and-"

"Do you believe him?"

Yes, I… do?

I heard her sigh.. "well…"

"I believe him." I admitted, "serious. We know this isn't the type of thing he engages in so.."

"Are u right back to your senses now?"

"Mom, it wasn't my fault." I said.

"Fine, I understand but you really should apologize to that young guy, he must have gone thru alot." She said, thinking about his feelings.

"I already have and it seems like we're on good terms now."

"Looks like you're set." Adonis came out of nowhere, putting on a dark blue jeans jacket with a grey shirt underneath with his trousers. And some faca caps.

"I'm not, " I said back, "and I'm going nowhere."

"Pls now.." he says, his face scowling.

"I said-"

"Vi just go, just for this time." I opened my mouth at my mom.

"Mom,-"..

"I can come with you guys if you want."

"Sure mom why not." Adonis interfered and his voice sounded so happy.

"Alright then!"

Phil
The time read 3:30am and I couldn't sleep back so I rose from my bed and walked to the veranda where the stars lit beautifully and admiringly. It drew my eyes, it made me think of my mom and this has to be the first time I was feeling guilty for all of us, my evil twin was right… Maybe it was my fault that we lost her. Or maybe not.. because she was the one that wanted to talk to me that desperate till she lost herself. But either way I still have the same hole in my heart. But what Flynn had done wasn't right, he was thirsty for the revenge that isn't valid… he used Vi to get back at me, how smart he is. But I want the opposite, I want us to be different from the way he thinks.. he was too violent and I want and will make us to be like any normal twin not one who antagonizes the other. And thinking about Faith, I'm sorry for her… I hope she eventually gets more heartbreak than she gave Genevieve. I hope one whom she trusts a lot, loves eventually leaves her without any explanation. She faked her death for whatever reason and I hope I don't get to see her again. All going through my mind is how I'm going to take time to explain all this to Vi.

"What?" She screamed to my face, her face skidding into a scowl at the impact of my revelation..I looked ahead of her, embarrassed to look at her eyes.. because of Flynn. He caused all this.

"You had a twin and you never told me?"

"And he's the one behind all this, I don't even know him and he punished me to this extent. He's going to rot in jail if my parents find out!"

"Vi, calm-"

"Don't even dare to complete -"

"I just told you I was in the dark, I didn't know all of it either." I defended myself.

"And what happened to Faith? Did he really kill her or was he lying?"

"He didn't, she probably has her own motives..."

"That could be a lie! He lied to you and you believed."

I kept quiet, I knew she was going to be in denial about this but what can I say.

"Damn why are you not even speaking! I'm just so confused, and the news is coming that Faith didn't die? She kidnapped them."

"No one of us know more about her, but I believe more news will come…." Flynn has a lot to do now. He got himself into this and even after all he had done to make me miserable, I don't want our next visit to be behind bars.
