Chapter 106

“Sissy!” Carmen yelled out and ran into my arms. “Wait, why did you bring a suitcase?” She pointed at Vernon, who shrugged his shoulders.

“Siena and I are staying here for a while. Please don’t ask.” I replied as I pushed the suitcase in her hand and made my way over to grab Siena’s car seat. “Is she sleeping?” Carmen pouted.

“Wake her up.” She smiled and clasped her hands together. It was amazing to me how people always volunteered to wake up a screaming baby. “Maybe later, she just fell asleep.”

I followed Lita to the living room and looked at my little brother, Luke-who stared at me with frowned eyebrows. “Did you dump Christian?” He boldly asked while my mom and Carmen gave him a look. “I’m sorry.” He apologized and held his hands in the air.
