Your name is Cora. You just moved into town with your half brother, Dante. Your older brother Gene, died. You have always been a momma's girl, and now you live with boys. Though you look nothing alike, your are siblings. You both attend Phoenix Hig...
I rushed to my mother's side. My heart pounding out of my chest. Blood trickled down the side of her head, my eyes surfacing with tears that won't be contained for long "MOM" I found my voice. And a single tear rolled down my cheek. A police officer had to carry me away from the ambulance. I kicked and argued the whole time
Dante took me away from the officer and pinned me to a tree, trying to get me to stop "Cora! Calm down! She's going to the hospital! She's not going to die!" "MOM!" I shout again, wanting her frail arms around me. I sob, looking at my blueberry brother "Dante.. I want my mom.." He holds me close "I know.. " he pats my head "I know..."
Soon, Dante is driving the truck and I'm calling Aaron to tell him that I won't be home for a while. "What happened?" He asked "I-I don't know.." I stuttered with a lump in my throat. He sighs and I can almost see him nod "be careful." "I will." I replied "you stay safe too." But it was too late He hung up. He's been getting into fights recently and I don't know why. I sigh, shaking the idea of my head. I look over at Dante, who is concentrated on the road. The corner of his mouth twitches, a sign he's lost in thought.
What feels like forever, we finally made it to the hospital. My mom: alive. But..
She has no clue who she is and who I am

I don't leave her side, even though she asks who I am. I just reply "a friend" "Aren't you young to be my friend?" I suck in a breath "I don't know.."
Aaron comes by to pick me up, bringing in flowers. Mom smiles and says that I made a good choice for a man. I smile as bright as I can for her. Aaron and I walk hand in hand. My small hand perfectly inside his. I can't help but also smile at the thought of it. He smiles down at me, that charming sideways smirk. I feel my cheeks go red. We walk to his white pick-up truck. When I sit and the truck moves, I stare out the window Who did this to my mom? Why would they do this? Do I know this person? I feel something touch my hand. And it's Aaron "hey.." "Hey.." "So.." He says, trying to make a small conversation "I heard Gene is back in town." I groan "don't remind me." I feel his soft lips upon the tip of my knuckles, making me feel like I'm walking on air.
Gene.. Mom... Dante.. Dad..
Why do I feel like all of these people have a connection? It's just a gut feeling.
And maybe gene had something to do with this
