That night I got ready for the party, then my brother Andy came in.

"Don't you knock?"

"I heard you got invited to Freya's party."

"How'd you know?"

"Freya told me."

Another Deal Breaker: Andy is dating Fraya. I know, you must be thinking, what's the age difference? Even though I'm 17 and Andy is 20, Freya is 18.

"Well, me and Dennis are going."

"Does Mom know?"

I never lied before, so that's why anyone would believe me. You know what they say, there's a first time for everything.

"Yeah, she knows. Well, I gotta get going. See ya."

"Melody?"

"Yeah."

"Just wanted to give you a warning."

"A warning? What kind of warning?"

"Be careful, your past will catch up to you tonight."

I knew what past he was talking about, I only had 1 past. The past that taunted me for 5 years. Only 1 person besides my family knows. I've made it my mission to forget that night, but my family couldn't let me forget that night for 1 second. I couldn't tell anyone, I couldn't tell anyone that I killed my father.
