Hey, Ian,” Kyle added, never moving his eyes,... Hey, Ian,” Kyle added, never moving his eyes, “you got anything you want to say to
me?”
“Not really
“I'm waiting for an apology
“Can you believe he kicked me in the face, Jodes? For no reason at all
“Who needs an excuse, eh, Jodi?”
It was oddly pleasant, the banter between the brothersJodi's presence kept it light and teasingI would have woken up for thisIf I were her, I would have been smiling
already
“Keep it up, Kyle,” I murmured
I wished I would get to meet her, to see what she was likeI could only picture Sunny's
expressions
What would it
chanel jumbo bag be like for everyone here, meeting Melanie for the first time? Would it seem the
same to them, as if there were no difference? Would they really grasp that I was gone, or would
Melanie simply fill the role I had?
Maybe they would find her entirely differentMaybe they would have to adjust to her all over
againMaybe she would fit in the way I never hadI pictured her, which was picturing me, the
center of a crowd of friendly facesPictured us with Freedom in our arms and all the humans
who had never trusted me smiling with welcome
Why did that bring
white ceramic chanel watch tears to my eyes? Was I really so petty?
No,Mel assured mend they'll miss you–of course they willAll the best people here will feel
your loss
She seemed to finally accept my decision
Not accept,she disagreed just can't see any way to stop youAnd I can feel how close it isIsn't that funny? I'm absolutely terrified
That makes two of us
“Um… why?”
“For trying to kill you,” he said casually“Please tell me you have some kind of recording device available, Doc“This moment should be preservedI never thought I'd live to see the day
that Kyle O'Shea would

“Jodi, baby, don't you want to defend me? Tell Ian I neverhave been wrong beforeIt was nice to know that I'd earned Kyle's acceptance before I leftI hadn't
expected that much
There was no more I could do hereThere was no point in lingeringJodi would either come
back or she would not, but neither outcome would change my path now
So I proceeded to my third and final deed: I lied
I stepped away from the cot, took a deep breath, and stretched my arms
“I'm tired, Ian,” I said
Was it really a lie? It didn't
costume chanel jewelry sound so falseIt had been a long, long day, this, my last dayI'd
been up all night, I realizedI hadn't slept since that last raid; I must have been exhaustedDid you stay up with the Heal–with Mandy all night?”
“Yeah
“Have a nice night, Doc,” Ian said, pulling me toward the exitWe'll be back
in the morning
“Night, Kyle,” I murmured
Doc glowered at me, but Ian's back was to him, and Kyle was staring at JodiI returned Doc's
glare with a steady gaze
Ian walked with me through the black tunnel, saying nothingI was glad he wasn't in the mood
