Not everything our loved ones tell us is true. Sometimes they have shitty secrets from the past and try by all means to keep that secret but sooner or later it will be exposed.

VERONA'S POV (ELIZABETH'S MOM)
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHBx009FS7
FLASH BACK
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72etrIlu1r
I left Elizabeth eating her breakfast when I arrived at my room. I closed the door behind me.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiqp07UAuf
My phone rang and stared at the caller ID anxiously. I took a deep breath and answered the phone call.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbLpB2ycUv
"I've been trying your number all day" the other person on the other end scolded.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRTepIj85g
And I sighed deeply.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzi0zPAEgBO
" Anyway forget maybe you don't care about Leah."
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6oSIk7trq
I shook my head negatively.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZ84zrDjQn
" I care about my daughter, how is she doing?" I asked curiously.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dPSnmWcvr
"I know it's been years and she belongs to another family. She'll never acknowledge me as her mother. But I want to watch her grow up even if I'm behind the shadows."
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqXO7rBl6I
" She probably hates me" I sobbed miserably.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9y7HjlDMzf
" Look Verona, I can't promise you anything about forming a relationship with her but I'll always let you know how she's doing and invite her to her birthdays."
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQB2sIxpZM1
I nodded quietly.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pgDyvi9cp
" Thank you Jane."
" Sure thing."
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQqKgWBj0z
The call got disconnected and I sobbed miserably.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9gOEbn3cN
Someone had tipped me off that my daughter never died that night, surprisingly a nurse had watched everything happen and after ten years she finally had the courage to reveal that secret.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQfyztZcoA
A rich family had adopted my daughter and they named her Azalea. Unfortunately they lived in Paris so I couldn't meet her physically but Jane always sent me her pictures.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNx692osBRj
After she had learnt how corrupt the hospital was she applied for a job as nanny at the same house.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzZXy85oCM
Jane became Azalea's nanny ever since she told my everything we've been communicating.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOSuXvoih7
My first instincts were to go claim my daughter but I couldn't. I was just a stranger to her and I always felt guilty because I almost killed myself with my alcohol addiction.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7zXVJYOvR
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IinqOaqFM
I missed my daughter.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHf0pyBf8x
Years later Jane stopped working there because Azalea had grown up and she was getting married.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAC6Qv45r1F
Of course I went to the wedding and made up some excuse to Elizabeth. That day I witnessed everything with my own eyes.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1vofzxCZI
I was so happy for her but yet I couldn't express the love I felt towards my daughter.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1KsyQEpxC
I had gotten my chance to hug her and congratulate her. She never recognized me and I couldn't blame her.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmy3ZnFa57B
Later Jane called me with bad news Azalea had died while giving birth and she had left a baby girl behind.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmBvGkpcV0
That night her husband had also gotten involved in a road accident.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1G4jGqmcM5
I was heartbroken and often locked myself in my room. I couldn't let Elizabeth see me.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxwOnfz97C
She had lost her sister.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAMGFDk1Ve
I was left with Elizabeth and I vowed to protect her but the secret I was hiding kept torturing me with so much guilt.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTiZp2tvlI
I was lying to Elizabeth every day of her life. I always died a little when she would often say; mom, I wish I had a sister.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFly1LuFV6f
Guilt.

JADE'S POV (HAYDEN'S MOM)
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6mdbQIdeO
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sA9EFwNSo
Marcus and I exchanged glances as we both stared at Hayden who was very quiet; he was lost in thoughts.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoK4De9vO2D
"Go talk to him dear" Marcus urged and I nodded quietly and sat beside him.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GN8zAHlu1
"Son" I said softly and placed my hand on Hayden's shoulder and he blinked, snapping out of his thoughts.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPuamjfUaW
"Mom , I didn't notice you," he said quietly and I nodded.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CcAmXpJCh
"It's alright what were you thinking about?" I asked curiously and he sighed deeply.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCWcGYhsrb
" You can tell me anything, feel free" I muttered coolly assuring him and he nodded.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGLTv2q184
"I know mom."
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGjUlKhqmd
Silence.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblVzWlx3K3
"I don't know why mom but I haven't seen her full face yet but the girl next door has Azalea's traits. It's driving me insane. They literally have the same gorgeous brown eyes. I know it's been five years now since Azalea left this world I'm failing to connect the dots."
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAHv5L748a
What I feared the most was happening Hayden hadn't moved on yet.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBu9x43NF6H
"Azalea is gone and you should just admit that to yourself. You're only seeing Azalea in the girl next door because you haven't accepted that she's dead. Don't be delusional Hayden you know she's gone for good this time" I said softly Hayden nods quietly.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFfGkGqRvO
"I'll make you a cup of coffee."
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3c8VAx1W4
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeX1QPbExo
Things weren't easy for Hayden especially ever since Azalea left this world.
But he had to be strong for Theodora.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHarWCWBX4m
I only lasted this long in the vampire world because Marcus had turned on me at the last moment he claimed me as his wife. The council couldn't do anything because Marcus was born into a very powerful and influential family.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYJYWnlj47
I was human and Marcus was half human half vampire when we met so both of my kids were special but Hayden was just something else.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeH13Xifm1
But when Hayden also fell in love with a human the council couldn't take it. They banished Hayden.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cfUeedsHp
The painful memory made my body cringe.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoWcYeVv0E
A lot of blood was shed that fateful night but I think we made the right decision in the end because Hayden needed his family more than anything.

63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjSFo98JOn
When mom left I got up and looked outside the window staring at her window.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIQWojwu5a
She wasn't there but I could feel her breathing.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5A1v9Qqlmf
I closed my eyes and focused all my energy on the window.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgPb62QOrO
I could see her on the bed reading a book but her face was unclear. The vision got blurry and I blocked the connection.
"Azalea..."
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIwgozYzvz
My powers were still weak.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojnos3nygS
Someone tapped me on the shoulder when I turned around I frowned when I saw Sage grinning.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbW9znIljg9
My frown deepens.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7FNzWp5pW
"Oh I see my big brother is now stalking the girl next door" she teases.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7y8XmCfJZb
I rolled my eyes at her.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViRSrWvxXn
" Don't overreact Sage. I just enjoy looking at their garden. They have nice flowers," I said quietly and walked past her.

I cocked a brow when Hayden left and looked at the window. I gasped and escaped my lips.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeM9hDqjpNT
"It's just a plain lawn that means Hayden was lying. I knew it. So it means that there's a possibility that he might like the girl next door."

The morning I started college again, maybe it would help me clear my head a bit.I already completed college a long time ago but I just needed something to help me lay low for a while.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vAmx5PK27
I packed the necessary books and stuff and wore a leather jacket and black denim jeans. A few minutes later I got
my motorcycle and drove to the institution.

I can't breathe (Chopsquad), I can't breathe, 999
Waiting for the exhale
I toss my pain with my wishes in a wishing well
I can't breathe, I'm waiting for the exhale
Toss my pain with my wishes in a wishing well
Still no luck, but oh, well
I still try even though I know I'm gon' fail
Stress on my shoulders like a anvil
Perky got me itching like a anthill
Drugs killing me softly, Lauryn Hill
Sometimes I don't know how to feel
Ring-ring, phone call from depression
You used my past and my memories as a weapon
On the other line, I talk to addiction, huh
Speaking of the devil, all the drugs, I miss them
This can't be real, is it fiction?
Something' feels broke, need to fix it
I cry out for help, do they listen?
I'ma be alone until it's finished
This is the part where I tell you I'm fine, but I'm lyin'
I just don't want you to worry
This is the part where I take all my feelings and hide 'em
'Cause I don't want nobody to hurt me
I can't breathe, I'm waiting for the exhale
Toss my pain with my wishes in a wishing well
Still no luck, but oh, well
I still try even though I know I'm gon' fail
It's stress on my shoulders like a anvil
Perky got me itching like a anthill
Drugs killing me softly, Lauryn Hill
Sometimes I don't know how to feel
Sometimes I don't know how to feel
Let's be for real
If it wasn't for the pills, I wouldn't be here
But if I keep taking these pills, I won't be here, yeah
I just told y'all my secret, yeah
It's tearing me to pieces
I really think I need them
I stopped taking the drugs and now the drugs take me
This is the part where I tell you I'm fine, but I'm lyin'
I just don't want you to worry
This is the part where I take all my feelings and hide 'em
'Cause I don't want nobody to hurt me
I can't breathe, I'm waiting for the exhale
Toss my pain with my wishes in a wishing well
Still no luck, but oh, well
I still try even though I know I'm gon' fail
It's stress on my shoulders like a anvil
Perky got me itching like a anthill
Drugs killing me softly, Lauryn Hill
Sometimes I don't know how to feel

Twenty minutes later I arrived and parked my motorcycle. All eyes were on me especially from the girls their boyfriends kept giving me nasty looks.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qf5HaRKye
Besides, I wasn't even interested in their so-called girlfriends.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXN2oJeW8DR
While walking I bumped into someone and hot coffee spilled on his white t-shirt. The girl's books got knocked out of her hands, everything fell and she bent over picking her soaked books and homework.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6f7uAxDu8h
"Are you blind or something?" I demanded. The girl got up and faced me and when I saw her I lost it.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiNg3NPk1E
"You literally bumped into me instead of apologizing you're here yelling at me. You snobbish brats are just arrogant and mannerless just like your parents."
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOw9Cyr4OL
" Thanks to you all my assignments are soaked in fucking coffee!"
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Hykpt9PQe
She snapped her fingers in my face and I blinked.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqaKMytkp0
" Azalea…"
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EOOE6DHjy
The girl frowned.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxt4wcPCGV
"I don't have time to deal with an idiot like you so get lost."
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLzB2KIEAW
She walked past me and I grabbed a smoothie from a random girl and followed her.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUtgiwkHrU
"Hey! The girl whines but I didn't care.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvnOvRsZTW
I poured the smoothie on the girls head and she gasped.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5EpTeKgdn
She turned around and faced.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5khz3ZO8P
"Soaked assignments and smoothie drips suit you and you talk way too much motor mouth" I taunted.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKziYCxZzF
This girl wasn't Azalea in fact she was nothing like her.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mKOmQObKt
Her face turned red and she slapped me across the face hard, everyone gasped in shock.
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYTsSkvODk
Silence.
