T: It's not worth Hardin, I'm used to it.
It's not the first time...

H: WHAT?!

T: Yes, it's not the first time and it's not the last, but now I think I'm going home

H: All right, come on, I'll go with you

T: All right, let's go * we take our stuff
and go to my house. When we get there Hardin stays in the living room watching TV and I  go
take a shower and change *

H: * While Tessa is taking a bath I stay
in the living room watching TV, when I hear the door open and two voices.
When they come in the house and
come to me and I see them, the three
of us have wide eyes. I can't believe they're Tessa's parents! * You ?

Lauren:Hardin?

H: Mrs and Mr. Mendes, are you
Tessa's parents?!

Matthew: Yes, but what are you doing
here, Hardin?

H: * When I'm about to answer Tessa
comes down the stairs and comes to
the living room with us *

T: Oh, hello mom and dad I  thought
you wouldn't be here for a few hours.

L: And we arrived but we decided to
come early to get some rest before you and Emily got home.
And by the way, what are you two doing here?

T: Oh yes, mom and dad this is *My
dad won't let me finish *

M: Hardin, we know Tess

T: Wait how do you know each other?

H: Um, Tessa, can I talk to you in
private? I need to tell you something.

T: Okay, we can go to my room, We
already come down mom and dad.
* I take Hardin's hand and when we're
leaving I see my mom giving Hardin a
sweet smile and he smiles back.
OKAY, WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON
HERE*

H:* Tessa takes me to her room and
sits on the bed and I sit next to her*

T: You know, you don't have to tell me
anything.

H: I know, but I need to tell you, and
you need to know where I know your
parents from, so it's better to tell you
right away.

T: Okay...

H: So four years ago before Anthony
was born I had another sister (sighs)
my twin sister.
She started to feel bad so we went
with her to the doctor and she was
diagnosed with a brain tumor, so we
came to London for treatment, your
parents were her doctors, they did
everything to treat her but a while
later my sister didn't survive, I was
devastated, when we got back to
Portugal l was very disgusted by all the falsehood from the place, people who never speak to us pay our respects and even the ones who spoke bad about us l was so angry I started
hanging out with the wrong people, that they influenced me drinking, smoking skipping classes. Everything...
I became someone else until one day
I realized what I was doing, that my
sister was more important to me and
that she wouldn't want that future for
me and that it wasn't her fault anything that happened.
So I decided to be better for myself, for her and for my whole family, they didn't deserve anything that happened but they were still there for me.
I cut all relationships with bad
influences and apologized to my old
friends for the way I treated them.
From then on, I started working every
chance I could to earn my money, and
I tried to be a good son and brother.

T: Hardin.... Your sister's name was.....

H and T at the same time : Zoe
