SZNS SERIES 1: Summer by Maria Writes (books for men to read txt) 📗

picture of a young Mary carrying a child who looks like a three-year old toddler. It was a cute kid, and it kinda looked like her. But she cannot remember when the photo was taken since she was still little in the photo.

There was a note attached on the photo, a phone number and an address. She ignored that phone number written and just drove to the address. It was a bit near in her campus. It didn't take her long to find the address. Chloe stopped in front of a small house with a red gate. She hopped off her car and walked toward the house.

She knocked on the door and waited for it to open. it took a couple of seconds before it opened and she was welcomed by a smile plastered on Mary's name, her mother. Her real mother. She just notices know how her mother looks somehow like her. They both had the same hair color, same eyes, and honestly, same everything.

And she just realized now why she's the only one in her family who has red hair. And why she never looked like her parents. It's because she is not really her child.

"Hello, I'm here to talk to you about what you said earlier, mom." she took a step and hugged her mother. It's weird doing this, but she knows her mother needs this. All her life, she'd been in the arms of the woman who she thought gave her life, but that was a lie. Now, it's finally happening.

Mary let go of her and stared at her for a while before dragging her to the house. It's very cozy. She loves the ambiance the house has. This is home, this is where she belongs, where her heart belongs. Chloe roam around the living room and saw a picture frame, it was Mary and she's carrying a kid who she thinks is baby Chloe, and beside them is a man who looked like the same age as Mary in the picture.

He had the same eye color as her, but not the hair. His hair is black. This must be Robbie, her dad. Chloe's biological father. She turns around and saw Mary looking at her. She showed her the frame and walked closer to her.

"Is this my father? My mom, Leona, she said something about a guy named Robbie, is this him?" She smiled at her hoping that she'll say something about her father.

"Yes, this is Robbie, your father. But you will never gonna see him again because he died. Your father died when you were just little, car accident. I love him so much. I love the two of you so much, that is why I lose every bit of sanity I have when he died. I was so wrecked that time that I forgot about you, and I know in myself that if I stayed like that, both of us will not survive. When I heard the Leona lost her child, I thought it'll be a good idea if I give you to them. And it looks like I'm right, I mean look at you now. You look so beautiful, you're smart, you're so happy. And I am very grateful for that."

Mary, no, her mom hugged her tight and she never let her go. Chloe cannot believe that her father is gone. But that will not stop her to make her mother happy, she's the only family she has and nothing can break them apart. Even her foster parents.

She swears to every saints she knows that she will do everything to make her mother happy. And if that means she has to leave everything behind, she will. You need to sacrifice for your family, and this is her doing it.

Chloe is running around her room, choosing the right outfit to wear. A halter top on her closet caught her eyes so that is what she chose and paired it with a pants then she heads downstairs. Everyone is ready to party. All of them went outside the house and ride their respective cars.

They had six cars in total and all of it are tailing one another. They were all hyped up to party that is why when the cars stopped in front of the bar, they all went inside to party.

It's been a long time since they all partied, and the last time they did, tragedy happened. She went to the bar with Jesse and grabbed something to drink. It was so much fun spending time with her friends, but there is something missing. If only Caroline was here maybe it'll be more fun. But she just pushed out a big baby last week so she needs some rest. She was so proud of her friend to go through her pregnancy without everybody at school knowing. She was so good on hiding her bump until she exploded last week.

"Don't drink too much, you're going to clear your room tomorrow." Jesse said as he passed her a glass of mojito. She is going to move out of the boarding house at the end of the week, so Jesse will be helping her pack her stuff. On Saturday, the day after her graduation, they'll be having a road trip from L.A to Miami, were they bought their apartment.

"Okay, just don't give me too much drink." she took a sip of her drink and watch her friends as they enjoy their time together. She's very excited for what's to come for all of them, especially for her. She can't
