Logan was about to ask her something when the roar of a motorcycle echoed from the yard. He jumped up and dashed outside, yelling, “Elysia, you’re finally back. Is my bike okay?”

Elysia took off the helmet and tossed the keys to Logan. “Don’t worry. It’s all good. Thanks.”

Logan chuckled. “It’s nothing, as long as the bike’s fine.

Emma came out too. She smiled warmly at Elysia and said, “You’re back. I was just talking about you with Logan.”

Elysia frowned, “What were you saying about me?“.

“Nothing, just some small talk,” Logan said with a flattering smile

Emma shot a glance at Logan and continued, “Elysia, I’m not trying to lecture you, but this bike is a limited edition. Logan didn’t want to lend it to you, so why did you take it?”

Elysia turned to Logan. “Did I take it?”

Logan grinned. “Of course not! You’re my dear cousin. I willingly lent it to you.”

Emma paused–Logan hadn’t mentioned it this way before.

Elysia turned to Emma. “Did you hear that? Next time, get your facts straight before you talk. I can’t promise how long my good mood will last.”

Elysia was referring to the motorcycle thing, but Emma understood the warning: she was being told not to spread rumors in school.

‘But I was telling truth, though I couldn’t find the evidence. But doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Elysia, just wait. Sooner or later, you’ll pay for everything you’ve done, Emma thought to herself

In the late afternoon at the Rosewood residence’s garden, Logan eaned in with a mischievous grin. “Elysia, you have no idea how Emma spilled all your stories to me. By the way, we definitely have the same temper. Little rascal, you’ve got the same flair I had back in the day.”
