Secrets of Us A Forbidden Love Romance (Alina)

Chapter 1

Welcome to Melview High School

"Get the fuck out of the car."

I flinch, swinging my eyes over to her. She inhales, her cigarette between her lips and she raises her eyebrow when I don't move.

My thumb runs over the scar on my wrist.

"Get the fuck out, Alina."

I swallow, grab my bag and get out of the car. I don't say anything, not even a goodbye. The hatred in mother's eyes has gotten worse over the last few months. It tears me apart.

But I don't blame her. It was my fault. I killed them. She has every right to be mad at me. To hate me.

Hell, even I hate myself.

She speeds away, blasting her music as I turn to face my new school. Mother couldn't live in our old house, and I couldn't either. When she announced one random Saturday morning that we would be moving across the country, I didn't object.

It's a fresh start.

No one knows me here, no one knows what I've lost.

I run my thumb over my scar again, and force myself to walk into the front office. The AC blasts into me and I wrap my arms around myself as I approach the desk.

"Hi," I whisper.

The lady behind the desk holds up a finger as she finishes typing something out. "What can I help you with, my dear?"

I look over her shoulder to the motivational posters hung up behind her. They sour my stomach, and I blink away the tears. "I'm a transfer student."

Her face lights up. "Oh. Alina? Alina Hanson?"

I nod.
