Her Story

Knock

I wake up with Stone arms wrapped around me.

When did he come in here?

He is still asleep.

I always go to sleep before and wake up before.

I nuzzle out of his grip and head to the kitchen.

I see Gloria and basically run toward her.

She doesn't look well.

"Are you okay?" I asked

"Of course dear just that season, you know allergies."

I feel like she is lying.

"Okay." I say smiling.

"Do you have plans today?" She asked

"Is this your way of asking do I want to watch The Originals?" I asked

We get some popcorn and some snack cakes.

Then we head to the couch.

"Before you start it I want to ask you something my dear." Gloria said.

"Tell me about your mom and dad."

"Well me and my dad used to be very close. I mean always laughing. Everything. Me and mom were close but not as close." Then I explained to her about the gang thing.

"Well I would hate to take your mothers place but I would like you to know that you are like the daughter I never had. When I was young and in love I wanted kids but I couldn't have them. Then at age 45 my husband passed from cancer. So I know we haven't known each other for a long time, but you are at least to me, considered my daughter."

She started tearing up.

"And you are like the mom I wish I had. You are my mom at this point Gloria. Thank you for being so nice to me." I say leaning into a hug.

"Now that's enough crying, lets watch this show." She said smiling.

We watched about 8 episodes and it was getting about her bedtime.

So she excused herself and went on to bed.

I hear a knock on the door so I got up and put my snacks down to go see who it was.

I opened the door shocked at what I see.

"Ava?" My brother says

"Jack." 

I'm kind of froze right now. 

"Come in."

"I need you to listen to me Ava." He said in a scared way.

"Okay?"

"Stone isn't good for you. He is the bad guy." He said

What?

"What do you mean?" I asked

"Listen Ava I'm in a gang. A while ago I had the option to die or become a member. I picked member as you can see. As a member I cant get a hold of things. Also people suck at whispering. Stone has murdered families, killed large groups of innocent people Ava. One even says after he tells a girl those three words she's good as dead." He said

No. He is lying Ava.

That is your brother though.
