FOR AS LONG as alaska remembered, she'd been going to the fisher's summer house. her, her twin sister sydney, her brother roman and their mother would always drive up two days after school ended. all of the delgado's looked forward to seeing the familiar faces and smelling the smell of sand and salt water every year, nothing could change that.
that was until when alaska and sydney were 14 and roman was 16, their mom was murdered. there was a shooting while the two of them were on a walk and unfortunately, a bullet made its way to their mom. it shocked the small town in new jersey they grew up in and made an impact on everyone else around them. you could ask anyone about their experience with charlotte delgado and there would be nothing but nice things to say.
roman, sydney and alaska's dad left them when they were little. their parents got a divorce and he found a new family. at first, he would visit them every weekend. then, it would lessen each time. every weekend, then every other weekend, then every month, then every 3 months, then it turned to christmas and easter, then it became getting a card for birthdays and holidays. now? they haven't heard from him since their mom's funeral. he had checked up on them a few times after that, but only because people made him.
the delgado children missed the summer after their mom died due to her passing early may. the last time any of the conklins or fisher's saw any of the delgado's was at charlotte's funeral. all three of them had been living with their aunt, charlotte's sister, in a small town in maryland.
now, it was finally time to go back to cousin's beach. alaska was dreading it and wanted to avoid having to encounter the family friends. all the beach house did was bring back happy memories she had with her mother. and nothing would be the same.
except for the feelings she had for a certain fisher boy..
