10. Struggles AZURA. 

He had a family... 

I stared at the marble tiles of the shower walls, letting the water pour down my body. 

Nikki is his woman, and the boy... 

I closed my eyes, resting my forehead against the cool wall. 

He had a son... 

Why didn‘t I know this? Sure, I never cared about the latest news, but it was never something mentioned. Sky or Kat would have mentioned it... But then again, Leo has moved away from his family entirely. Nikki seemed damn nice, and I had gone and slept with her man. 1

But... I made sure I had an alibi... 

Hmm, something wasn‘t right. 

No wait, oh my god, they must have realised I emptied the pot of worms on that dumb boy’s head! But he was calling me names! No, wait... What if they realised I‘m the one who made Jayce and Theo flood the bathrooms? Or wait, what if it– !
