For the past three days, I\'ve been thinking about a way to end Lecia\'s \'relationship\'.

All my good ideas had Max dying at the end, which wasn\'t good.....or was it ?

I look at myself in the mirror, I seemed.....too shiny.

Today was my...birthday and Lecia was hosting a party in my name, I had assumed that it was off because of the things that had come into light, but it seems that Lecia still wanted to keep the party going on.

She made Eric bring me the dress, she had picked out for me.

The dress she\'d chosen looked expensive and it was really shiny, tiny red gems had been embedded into the suit and shirt was entirely red. A black tie and pants of the same color.

I look like a clown.

I had worn the suit and was admiring myself in the mirror, the others were probably waiting for me in the backyard, which was the venue that Lecia had chosen for the party.

~~~~

It was probably dark out by now.

I could hear voices coming from our backyard, I took in a deep breath and stepped into the backyard, swinging open the back door.

As soon as I open the back door....\'it\' reached my ears.....that dreadful song,

" HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU.....ADAM, MAY THE GOOD GOOD BLESS YOU---------"

I\'m greeted by all my friends who sang the \'birthday\' song chaotically.....hmmm, I\'ll give them an A for effort though.

Even though their song was subpar, Lecia had really turned the backyard into something beautiful....

Lanterns were hung from trees and plants, they illuminated the night sky.....giving it a comfortable orange hue. Light music could be heard coming from a speaker that was hidden skillfully.

" Happy Birthday...Adam.", Lecia says moving along with the group towards me carrying a very big cake.

Lecia smiled like she did normally....she didn\'t look angry either.

I thought we were fighting...?

" I think you\'re supposed to blow now.", Katherine remarked earning chuckles from Jennifer and Emilia.

" Oh...right.", I say before awkwardly blowing out the candles that were inserted inside the strawberry cake....which looked very appetizing.

~~~~

After blowing out the candles, Lecia cut us all a slice of cake and we ate it while sitting together in a circle.

I don\'t like to admit this....but I\'m enjoying this party more than I thought I would.

" So.....we heard something interesting about you two..", Emilia says displaying a smirk.

She was looking at Lecia....and Max.

I glare at Eric, who averts his gaze nervously.

That little gossip machine told everyone !

Now....it\'s going to be harder to contain it.

" Well...ac-", Lecia begins, but-

" There is nothing to talk about.", I say sounding a little more harsher than I had intended to.

A certain awkwardness pierces through the jolly atmosphere and I suspect that it might be my fault.

" The food\'s getting cold...we should probably start eating now.", Lecia says forcing herself to smile.

~~~~

It was a buffet.

We had to serve ourselves the food, which was also very good.

Eric and I stood in a corner holding our plates, which were filled with food and eat our food. The others had all gathered around Lecia and they were talking about something.

" You know....these baby carrots are pretty good.", Eric says examining the baby carrots on his plate thoroughly.

I remain silent as I wasn\'t in the mood for conversation, but oblivious to this Eric continues on,

" Lecia told me that these were grown in this backyard.", He says waving the carrots around.

.....

" Hey....didn\'t we bury that guy here ?....what was his name again....Joe or something ?"

...

" Since we used him as manure...it\'s like we\'re eating him in a way....huh ?"

I spit out the baby carrot in my mouth and frown hearing Eric.

" What the hell is wrong with you ?", I say putting my plate down and walking away.

I need some fresh air....

I walked to the front porch of the mansion where my car was parked.

Leaning against the car, I gently sit on the floor and close my eyes.

I feel.....complicated.

Uhhh....this is all such a dra-

" Feeling guilty yet ?"

I almost jump up, startled as a familiar voice reached my ears,

" Jennifer...", I say observing the smiling girl before me.

Jennifer\'s crimson hair and green eyes strangely seemed to sparkle in the night....she was beautiful for an extra.

" Why should I feel guilty ?", I ask scoffing.

" Well...let me think....for behaving like an asshole even after she did all of this for you.", Jennifer says sitting down beside me.

I glare at her even though I know she\'s right.

" Well....I won\'t let them be together.", I say shaking my head and strengthening my resolve.

" I don\'t care about any of that. Adam....I just hope that you understand that Lecia\'s the only family you have...and I believe that family is the most important thing in the world....so don\'t throw that away for something as insignificant as this.", Jennifer says getting up.

" I\'ll see you on the other side.", she said before leaving me alone with my thoughts.

Family.....

Am I really in the wrong here ?

I should probably talk to Lecia properly first.

~~~~

Before talking to Lecia, there\'s another teen-tiny thing I have to do.

Confess to Emilia about how I killed her grandparents....I\'m not gonna come off good in this story....but I have to do it.

Returning to the backyard, I search for Emilia but she was nowhere to be found, after asking around, I learn that she had went inside the mansion to get some water.

Bracing myself, I enter the mansion and find Emilia in the kitchen heartily drinking some water. I see a display of very shiny knifes next to her....maybe I should do this some other time....

" Adam !"

But it was too late to back out now as Emilia called out to me,

" Hey...", I say unsure of exactly where to begin.

" I hope you don\'t mind me saying this....but take it easy on Lecia...alright ?"

" Mhmm", I mumble nodding my head.

" I have to tell you something....."

" What is it ?", Emilia asked worried, seeing my grim demeanor.

..............

" Could you pass me some of that water ?"

~~~~

Okay.

So, I failed at telling Emilia anything....I\'ll just tell her some other time.

It\'s just that she looked so happy today.....I don\'t want to ruin that.

I also might have been a little scared.

Instead of heading back to the backyard, I head to my room and fall down on the bed.....dead tired.

A few peaceful minutes pass before-

\'Knock\'

Someone knocks on my door.

" Come in.", I say getting up and sitting on the bed.

" I thought I\'d find you here."

Lecia entered the room, she sits beside me and smiled at me.

We stay silent for some time before she started speaking,

" I\'m sorry fo-"

" No.....I\'m the sorry one.", I say interrupting her.

" I hate the idea of Max and you together.....but it was wrong of me to try to force you to stop having sex with him-"

I hold in the urge to puke, hoping that Lecia feels the same way.

" Sex ?,...we haven\'t quite reached that part yet.", Lecia says looking embarassed.

" Then....what did the two of you exactly do ?"

" Well, we just j-....I don\'t think I\'m comfortable enough to talk this with you."

" Right...."

Another uncomfortable silence descends upon us until Lecia breaks it by saying,

" Adam...since I came here from the orphanage...I\'ve been afraid of something and meeting with Max and talking with him helped me a lot more than you could imagine...he isn\'t that much of bad guy if you really get to know him."

" I refuse to believe that.....but okay."

Lecia sighs and continues on,

"All I\'m saying is that...he\'s helped me get over a lot of things and he\'s an alright guy.....but we\'re not in love or anything like that....it was just some harmless fun....just because we did some \'things\'...it doesn\'t mean that we\'re going to get married now or anything.....so you can stop being so paranoid."

" I see....are the both of you going to start dating or something ?", I ask wanting confirmation of some sort that their relationship was really ending.

" Oh...god no, I\'m not interested in something like that....at least not right now."

" That\'s good then...", I say finally having peace of mind.

\' Purrrrrrr\', the sound of Rhys snoring reached our ears.

" He\'s grown quite big hasn\'t he ?", Lecia says smiling.

" Yeah..."

Rhys had grown up a lot.....he\'s also getting pretty good at speech as well, but Lola\'s always ahead of him at everything....and he still keeps calling me \'mommy\'.

I need to do something about that...

" Why don\'t we head back ?", Lecia asked getting up.

Opening the door and dragging me along with her, she said,

" It\'s time to open the presents."
