Next morning, I woke up with paining legs. But ain't so weird considering I got hit by a car. I got up anyways, and followed my morning routine.

I went downstairs to kitchen where everyone was. They went silent the minute I walked in.

Sandi: "Good morning"

You: "Morning mom" I didn't look at her or anyone.

I'm still mad at them for not telling me about MY old life.

Will: "Do you wanna go through some pictures Katie?" He gave me a warm smile.

You: "Umm yeah, sure."

We walked to the living room and sat down on the couches looking through some albums. As I looked through them, I couldn't stop smiling.

Too bad I can't remember any of it though.

Sandi: "Katie, I fixed you a job. On a café not so far for here. (A job? I never worked before. Or maybe I did.) You don't have to take it. But it can give you some extra money"

You: "OK thanks. When do I start?"

Sandi: "Tomorrow at 8a.m." I nodded.

[skipping...]

It's the first day of work today. I tiptoed downstairs careful not to wake anyone up but since it was dark, I bumped into someone. I looked and saw Justin.

You: "Sorry"

I mumbled and walked past him but he grabbed my wrist making me turn around.

Justin: "Are you mad at me?"

You: "Yes and you perfectly know why. And what are you doing here?"

Justin: "What do you mean?"

He crossed his arms and looked deeply in my eyes.

You: "You said you're just a family friend. Not a family member."

Justin: "Don't worry I'll be gone before you get home. You'll get rid of me."

He went upstairs and I went to work.

When I walked inside the café, I was greeted by the workers. They look friendly. Especially the owner, Angie.

Angie: "Here sweetie. Change into these." I did as told.

I walked to a table of 3 guys to take my first order.

Guy 1: "Well look at you!" He whistled at the other 2 look at me.

One of them looked shocked.

Guy 2: "K-Katie?"

This is weird.

You: "Yes but how do you know?"

Guy 2: "It's me! Scott! From Alabama?"

He smiled reveling his white shiny teeth.

You: "I'm sorry I don't know who you are but... do you want something?"

 Guy 3: "Yeah, 3 vanilla ice creams please" I nodded and went to the freezer.

Scott... his name is familiar though. I went to their table and gave them their ice creams.

They paid me and I went to the kitchen.

You: "Here you go Angie" I gave her the money.

Angie: "Cute boys huh?"

You: "They're ok but one of them knew my name. And I never met him."

Angie: "Maybe you did but don't remember?"

You: "Maybe" I looked at Scott.

After work, I was so tired. I went home and to my room falling right asleep.

[Justin's Point of View]

I got a text. It read: "You have to be in Atlanta now. We got work to do"

It was from Scooter. Scooter who? My music manager! I got signed a few months ago by him and Usher! Cool huh? I'm not famous yet though.

I packed my bags and went to have breakfast. After that, I was walking back up but someone bumped into me. Katie.

Katie: "Sorry"

She mumbled and walked pasted me but I grabbed her wrist turning her around.

You: "Are you mad at me?" I know she is.

Katie: "Yes and you perfectly know why. And what are you doing here?"

What is she talking about? Does she not want me here? Probably not.

You: "What do you mean?" I crossed my arms.

Katie: "You said you're just a family friend. Not a family member."

My heart actually sank. I know she's right but still.

You: "Don't worry I'll be gone before you get home. You'll get rid of me."

I went up the stairs and wiped some tears.

Why won't she trust me? She doesn't want to know about her life!

I took a deep breath, got ready and called a cab. I went to the airport and boarded the flight to Atlanta.

I don't know if it's right to just leave Katie but she's safe with the Beadles and that's all that matters.

[Katie's Point of View]

When I woke up I heard a crashing sound from the kitchen. I went there and saw Christian picking up some broken glass pieces from the floor.

You: "Hey brother" He looked up.

Christian: "Hey" He kept picking up the pieces.

Something's wrong with this kid. He's... weird.

I shrugged and went to the living room. I sat down on the couch and kept looking at the pictures I did yesterday. I saw a picture of Christian, Caitlin and I.

Then I realized something: I don't look like any of them. Their noses, lips and eyes... nothing. What? I mean, if I'm their sister and we have the same parents, I should look like them right? But why don't I? I saw a bunch of other pictures and it was only them without me. Christmas, thanksgiving etc and I wasn't on a single picture.

Something's not right.
