"So I heard Miles came by your house." Chloe says beside me during lunch the next day.
I turn to her with shock.
"How did you know that?" I ask her.
"Nick told me."
Oh right. They are siblings.
"So did he?" She asks.
I nod. "Yeah."
"Why?"
"He told me he wanted to spend time with me."
"Spend time with you?" She repeats and I nod. "Why would he want to do that?"
"I don't have an idea. And he also called aunt Mary my mom."
"He did what?" She shouts.
"Keep your voice down." I glare at her.
"Sorry. Why would he call her that?"
"I don't know either. I mean maybe he doesn't know my parents are dead. Nick didn't know either before I told him."
"You may be right." She sips her juice. "So what happened after that?"
"Nothing actually. Nick came and they said something about Rick, then Miles had a phone call and left. I haven't seen him since."
"Did you say Rick?" Chloe asks me.
I nod. "Yeah. You know him?"
