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.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvSUfIzJhl
Really though how was I supposed to know that the hot detective staying in one of our guest rooms was top secret.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYTtIzQmIk
Long story short we lost 2 (irrelevant) allies because of the slip up.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5Z2o08buk
We finally made it back to the black Chevrolet and I took of my heels as soon as I got in the back.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOh4Zh2E0q
"Why do I have to where heels all the time , I'm already tall Josephine," I leaned over 835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vJylWPcvt
"So secret service can catch you if you try to run off," Grace muttered as she put in smaller earrings .835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOG7L3jnDTS
"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.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNWVx0zKwK
"Don't talk to your big sister like that and put your seatbelt on Vivienne ," my father chimed in.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtk3CLnvL9g
I wasn't talking to you either , I wanted to say.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIK7WyxOY6f
I sat back down and platted Verity's hair through the headrest.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOVp6JJm5w
The car was quiet again except for the quit hum of the air conditioner. 835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPe9sUvIP6n
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.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jAtrijAJp
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.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHS0jMlr0m
" Do you have scissors, there's a necklace stuck in my hair,"835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeNG8hRNAV
"Pull it out," She said without even looking my way.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojC69NA6IB
"My hair doesn't work like,"835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuJ53uh1Kf
"Then that's your business, leave me alone,"835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgobNogweng
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.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTRl4287xM
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. 835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mPptN6VyN
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. 835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxeH0x2sow
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.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBN06wJZMC
"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.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpRNdt4YmX
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.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbNVDtl8wn

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. 835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1Hmr0Cc8q
"Stevie, I don't understand what you're trying to say," Phia finally says. 835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZkOyt93Lw
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.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1rLLX2TP6
"Phia, i'm screwed. Phia i'm pregnant," Stevie almost whispers.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEdGUCOOb8
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.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmIsiUhJop
"Who?"835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAo8Bc60uy
Phia seems to have lost her ability to speak. After all Stevie is the talker.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5AkTTjeyI
"You're making me sound like a slut Phia. You already know it's Jules',"835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRalqMQBo9
"But it can't be,”835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡen68RI15EX
Stevie now bothered the fact that phia thought it could be someone else's replies, "Why can't it be?"835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntNCJsHzrs
"Don't get defensive it's just that so is Lyn,"835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9laEWGiZqs
"Jules'?"835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiNOiu3Jc5
Phia nods.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLRtifRKMY
"What's mine," 835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHx407BIa6
Jules has arrived with Reece and where Jules goes, Lyn follows so she isn't far behind them."835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEISNAp61J
"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.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5d377l0e3
Phia looks between the three and prepares herself for the newest chapter of their friendship. 835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTNhwgmee5
"Finally decided to stop cursing and act like a lady,huh? Reece chimes in and grazes his hair through his dark hair.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhw0h5flJW
"Why don't you go suck someone off at-" Stevie started.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC3qlW3Bnc
"There's a Lyn here, language" Jules says.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ818Wb8rOnX
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. 835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkghVnSHxCp
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.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpifTz8vRY
"We have school," She announces and leaves without waiting for a reply.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCygvqsUW9s
"What's her problem?" Jules questions.835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwh0SOXzIf
"You fucked up Jules," Phia says finally as she gets up and leaves the two alone835Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wBspKES9Q
