At every angle of me there were cowering paparazzi dying to get a word out of me. But I had strict orders not to to speak due to a minor incident once upon a time.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpywWAA3CkL
Really though how was I supposed to know that the hot detective staying in one of our guest rooms was top secret.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOK3j36RXp
Long story short we lost 2 (irrelevant) allies because of the slip up.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSTvHpLRhN
We finally made it back to the black Chevrolet and I took of my heels as soon as I got in the back.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoZccey5sr
"Why do I have to where heels all the time , I'm already tall Josephine," I leaned over 1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfa9sXbJbn6
"So secret service can catch you if you try to run off," Grace muttered as she put in smaller earrings .1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDnrsNwvvc
"It's not safe that you think I can't run in heels. I can beat your ass in heels too so next time mine your own business. I was asking Josephine," I remarked.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24RmXgqdFE
"Don't talk to your big sister like that and put your seatbelt on Vivienne ," my father chimed in.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasOHK0k6Of
I wasn't talking to you either , I wanted to say.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXWOQNgP6F
I sat back down and platted Verity's hair through the headrest.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQszvDpbA8
The car was quiet again except for the quit hum of the air conditioner. 1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOf7XaD1Fnz
As soon as we arrived at the the house I went into my room and changed out of the bathroom blazer and midi skirt Grace put me in and tried to take off the silver necklace. But my hair was stuck tangled with it. Untangling it did more damage than good since I had a fist sized knot in my hair.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTWwKdwcrC
I let out a growl of frustration and look in the bathroom for scissors. There was none so I checked in Verity's stationary pouch but with my luck she didn't have any there. Their were scissors in the kitchen but the cook wouldn't let me use them. something or the other about sanitation. I put my pride aside and knocked on Graces door.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIZ5Xk2zcC
" Do you have scissors, there's a necklace stuck in my hair,"1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg62R29iEIT
"Pull it out," She said without even looking my way.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt15GXyIdzJ
"My hair doesn't work like,"1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLD4GfbGfiI
"Then that's your business, leave me alone,"1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxzGpRZpGr
How hard was it to find scissors. Maybe their was a razor or an axe or something in the storeroom. All the way at the back of the house their was the stair way upstairs to the attic. My hair really didn't need anymore damaging and the heavy silver was starting tug on it.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrkm04xTzp
The attic was dark and dusty. If there was any electricity here I couldn't find the light switch so i drew the curtains of the window. I had only been here once when Verity and I were playing hide and seek. She never founded so i doubt even she knew about it. The space was wide and everything was organised up on shelves.Old pots and pans, Wires, empty boxes, forgotten toys and things we didn't need lying around the house. 1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccylxemyEw
A Container labels 'tools' caught my eye so I reached for it. I wasn't used to not being able to reach things so it came as a surprise to me when my hands just grazed the bottom of the box. Taking it as a challenge I hopped up and down like an idiot, trying to get the container. 1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLxJyEDI6d
My feet landed on a loose floorboard and I felt like i had fallen through the whole storey. But I had only slipped on the floorboard and shifted it out of its place.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmRFrOiJrV
"I should really go on that diet," I muttered to my self as I massaged my right foot. I went to put the floorboard back but my eyes caught the flash of something metal under it. I lifted the thin slab all the way and was met with a large collection of papers and notebooks. The flash was from the ferrule of a pencil. But my attention had shifted somewhere else.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7342Q9iz0l
On the label of a black and white composition book, discoloured with age was my birth mothers name printed in cursive handwriting. I opened the book and a loose page fell out. It looked like a story. I noticed it was dated almost a year before my birthday.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkfJ0pcYnV

Phia isn't a stranger to Stevie's outbursts. But this is different. Stevie is sitting on the Wheeping Tree moving her hands animatedly to justify her words. Not that she needs to. Stevie is a talker. Talkers are good at getting things. Even things they don't want. 1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwI7rpPfXw
"Stevie, I don't understand what you're trying to say," Phia finally says. 1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOvXz3pzbe
Her dark hair is dancing behind her and it looks soft. Phia looks soft but she really isn't. Her words are sharp and her gaze is warm. Warm like when you open a hot oven and you forget how to breathe when you're face is too close.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLrhGVxPY1
"Phia, i'm screwed. Phia i'm pregnant," Stevie almost whispers.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJJs7F2kZ2
Stevie who makes the sun shine look faint, has never looked so dim herself. Her red hair gathered in a bun above her head bobs with her as she lets out a defeated sigh.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNCVR9kxM3
"Who?"1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKHbUopx0T
Phia seems to have lost her ability to speak. After all Stevie is the talker.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxs0YZcIZI
"You're making me sound like a slut Phia. You already know it's Jules',"1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaG5WOrhRpv
"But it can't be,”1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jvvlmCamt
Stevie now bothered the fact that phia thought it could be someone else's replies, "Why can't it be?"1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgWxm3v5mY
"Don't get defensive it's just that so is Lyn,"1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvn5tBTT4En
"Jules'?"1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUycaUSWTO
Phia nods.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GaJg9spBi
"What's mine," 1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMuhaTrcRs
Jules has arrived with Reece and where Jules goes, Lyn follows so she isn't far behind them."1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHawdUGz0J
"The award for the biggest sissy in the 20th century. I can't believe you won't do it" Stevie says feigning to be untroubled.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgq2VXahTA
Phia looks between the three and prepares herself for the newest chapter of their friendship. 1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uTnfheoJQ
"Finally decided to stop cursing and act like a lady,huh? Reece chimes in and grazes his hair through his dark hair.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2vnhfdLWa
"Why don't you go suck someone off at-" Stevie started.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimAMWLrCD4
"There's a Lyn here, language" Jules says.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJY5tbAY7vJ
Lyn blushes at the comment and fidgets with her long buttery blonde hair. You wouldn't think they were a couple with how formal they behaved around each other. 1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1r7vSa13XS
Stevie the talker loses her desire to speak and jumps from The Wheeping tree landing between Jules and Lyn. She grabs Reece's arm and pulls him away from the argument he was having with Phia about the difference between communism and socialism.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XQHLoDDHV
"We have school," She announces and leaves without waiting for a reply.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPch9ohEO9U
"What's her problem?" Jules questions.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGG4IurAue
"You fucked up Jules," Phia says finally as she gets up and leaves the two alone1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7gmaK9l2E

I read it 3 times trying to understand. It felt like the words were dancing across the page mocking me. One name was etched in my mind from that excerpt.1116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85JNDFdATL
