Step Brother 2: Jealousy (Completed)

Five

2 weeks had passed, Logan came to get Kaida every weekend, she'd stay with him from Friday until Sunday. Thankfully it's the summer holidays, so the move didn't disrupt school.

Logan and I however, never spoke. Well unless you call speaking an odd text about Kaida.

He'd wait outside in the car for her, and stay in the car when dropping her off. So we never really stood face to face. It's hard, so hard because all I want is to jump into his arms, go back home, and be a family, but the fact he's not trying to fix anything, tells me that it's over.

I've been searching for houses close to home, near Logan, so Kaida can stay in her school, and so they can see each other whenever they want.

I found myself a job, where I could earn money that's just mine. It's not an amazing job, but I like it. I'm a makeup artist for inglot. It pays okay. I get more if I get booked for makeup, and in my spare time, I've been doing free-lance.

Things are looking up somewhat.
Kaida is gone with Logan, and I'm on my way to visit my Mom. She's wondered why Kaida hasn't been over, I guess I should explain. I didn't want to do it before, because I wasn't sure if me and Logan, would work things out.

As I park in the driveway, I notice a new BMW. It's not mom's, or Ronaldo's, they must have company.

"Kate! I haven't seen you in weeks. Come on in." Mom says greeting me, looking relieved.

"Sorry mom, there is so much been going on." I sigh.

"Oh, what's going on darling? You look exhausted." Her soft hand strokes my cheek. I giggle, trying to act okay.

"Me and Logan, we're getting a divorce."
I tried my hardest to act okay, but I know my mom always sees right through me.

"Sweetie, I'm so sorry. What happened?"

"I'm not ready to talk about the details. I just came to explain why Kaida, and I haven't visited.

As I stood in the hallway, a tall figure caught my eye.

It was Rome, he stood in the living room, with his back to us.
Mom caught me looking in his direction.

"He brought his wife with him."
She said awkwardly.

"Oh, well.. I should get going. I have some stuff to do."
I don't know why, but I needed to get out of there. It was so awkward, I didn't need to see a happily married couple, while my marriage was ending.

"Kate?"
Rome says turning to face me.

"Oh, hi."
I greeted him, acting surprised.

"Oh, this is Kate?"
A short blonde came out into the hallway, as she smiled.

"Yes, this is my step sister."
Rome said softly.

Ouch, and ewww.
I guess she doesn't know about our past.

"Hi, you must be Rome's wife?"
I asked extending my hand.
