Fun Fact: Haro is someone my friend chose as a character since I told her about this story and needed someone. I honestly don't even know who the heck he is except that he lives in the DFW area and I think it's his last name or middle name that is Haro. I don't freaking know lmao. All I knew is that he'd look like a good person to play Ella's brother. 🤷🏻♀️
Anyways, it's an update of the characters.

DeMar
"You find who done it, Reg?" I ask Reggie as he meets me in the hall. He shakes his head.
"I haven't met up with him. It's been a day, dude. I got you, DeMar, for real. Focus on your game tomorrow."
"How am I supposed to when my sister-"
"Lower you damn voice," his shoulder bumps mine and I stare at him coldly. I knew Reggie was a man of his word but I wasn't patient. I wanted to know who did those horrific things to Aja. She stayed in her room all last night and has only talked to my mother. She did not come to school today either.
"I'm just angry," I admit.
"I know you are, and believe me, I am too. I know exactly how you feel-"
"You don't know how this feels, Reg. That was my little sister, man."
"DeMar, you don't know shit about me. You act like we're two different people, but we really have a lot in common. I watched my own mother get raped and then later killed. I know exactly how it feels. When I say I got you, I got you."
I knew Reggie's mother died, but I didn't know she died so horrifically as he mentioned. He also had to witness it which made me feel worse for yelling at him.
"I'm sorry," I say and he nods and then walks away.

"You're already going back to school tomorrow, you excited?" Reggie laughs.
I shake my head, "I just want to go home and sleep. That bed was uncomfortable."
"Speaking of beds, why was Paul asleep on your bed the other day? You guys close or something?"
Paul and I shared a moment and it was blissful. I don't know how I felt about him, but it was definitely different. However, my emotions and feelings were everywhere at the moment, so I don't know if that feeling was true.
"We kissed earlier," I admit.
"What? So you two..."
I shake my head, "I don't know, Reg. I don't know what we are. Can we change the topic?"
