Prologue

    Summer 2019


          Let's begin to say there are no accidents in this world. At least not then and certainly not now. Before Edward James married his first wife and even after he married his second wife. And even when his daughter, Emma James made friends with the new girl Peach Golightly, the rich girl from Santa Rosa.

You know the story of Emma. She had to cope if her divorced parents. And then after, her father married two months to an architect dreamer but a real estate agent, Colleen Greyson, a single mother and widower for five years. And then walked in her son, the dreamer and charmer of the story. The story you heard before. So why explain what happened when you know the story? Of course, because there is more after the story. But there is something they don't know about it that led to the anguish and the consequences that did happen to Emma and Christopher of their parents not accepting the relationship they had. In spite of the passion, happiness, the understanding, the perfect things between them both, Emma was sent away against her will to The Lovely Ladies Institution. And after for nine months, things were crazy while she was locked up. But there is something you probably should know.

Remember the Polaroids? Well there's a lot behind those Polaroids. And somehow it might come to a bit of a shock. A shock for all of us. And however, it's time I certainly need to tell you. And it happened before Emma's seventeenth birthday. It all had started eight days after Christopher's graduation party.

     Peach Golightly had just gone out of the house of her rich over fashioned parents. The rich family of which Peach never wished to be born into. And it's no secret that Peach has always envied Emma. Maybe not the parents part. But the part of Emma being beautiful. And Peach used to hear plenty of the jocks all through high school saying how hot, beautiful or sexy Emma was. They never spoke about Peach like that. And after Logan had rejected Peach she just felt angry and jealous of her.

     Peach was not always pretty to the guys. And Peach just had a crush on Logan out of all the guys that were jocks. But then she met Emma's stepbrother, Christopher. And she knew at that wedding reception that she wanted to have him. But right under Emma's nose she had been gushing over the guy that she was in love with and her stepbrother. Peach took interest in him. And it's the reason why she was so angry and maybe a bit jealous and heartbroken. She felt like she claimed Christopher as hers. And Emma stuck in and took what was supposed to be hers.

      But right on the twenty-fifth of May, Peach left the Golightly mansion and she had decided driving all the way out to San Diego which is something she doesn't normally do. But she knows a lot about Christopher because she read his journal without his consent. While at the house visiting Emma she used to sneak into his room and read his journals from his freshman year of high school all the way to the present. And so Peach knows all about his friends. And more importantly about Liam Falcon. She spent days with him. Just like Peach, Liam wasn't a good friend. He had held onto a lot of grudges. And he kinda acted like the good caring guy.

But he was everything but the opposite. He and Christopher started their friendship off as enemies in sophomore year of high school. And they used to fight like everyday getting suspended. Liam was a bully to Patrick Wyoming, which Christopher would protect his friends no matter and they both would spend hours in detention hating each other. After time and time in detention, they eventually just became friends.

Peach had known about everything in regards to Christopher and Liam's friendship that didn't start off so pretty. But however, Peach needed Liam because she knew a lot about him. Liam was not an artist like Christopher could be. Liam originally was very good with poems. But mostly he was good at taking photos and pictures as in photography. Liam got into a good college taking up photography. And Peach was well aware of this.
