When we arrived at my house I asked Xavier if he can leave me alone for a while. I just need space with all this drama.

I quickly walk to my room without saying a word to the boys downstairs. Julio tried to talk to me but I didn't ignore him. I know he knows the truth so as the four guys but they didn't say a word about my real parents. I'm not angry at them nor mad. I'm just so disappointed in them because I trust them so much that it feels like they betrayed me.

I wrapped my hand in the doorknob of my room, I stopped and decided to stay in my parent's room.

I open the door and saw their picture on the desk beside the bed. Dad, mom, and their real daughter. They thought it was me and it didn't look like me when I'm a baby. I have a baby photo and I ask them one time that why I don't look like the baby in the picture they just said it's part of the process of growing up.

I locked the door of my parent's room and pick up the photo, sitting at the corner of the bed. They are happy with their real daughter.

I stood up and saw the picture of them when they were married on the wall, they are looking at each other smiling. I felt tears running down my cheeks, I wipe them with my fingers and I smiled.

"Mom, dad did you missed me? Because I missed you. I don't know if you already found out that I'm not your real daughter and your real daughter is with you now. I hope you're not angry at me---" I sobbed every word that came out of my mouth "I'm sorry about what happened to her, I, I didn't know" I said placing my head to the wall and closed my eyes. Taking a deep breath. "Thank you for letting me and Tony out before the car falls off the cliff--" I sobbed again and sat on the ground. "Without you, I'm probably dead and I will never meet my real family. I know deep down you knew that I'm not your real daughter but you still loved me like one. I promise you that I will do everything I can to make sure Tony won't die that's the only thing I can pay you for everything you have done for me. I'm, I'm sorry for causing your deaths. I am the one to blame" I covered my face with my palm and I cried louder. I heard a knock and Xavier's voice calling my name.

"Kennedy? Are you okay?" I ignored him. He keeps calling my name until I heard the door creak open he immediately sat down beside me.

"Are you hurt?" He asks and I nodded. "Where?" I didn't answer him I just grab his wrist and placed his palm to my heart.

"Here" I sob "I'm hurt here, it's crushing me inside. I, I, I don't know who I am anymore. I don't know if I still deserved to live here after everything I have done to them" I cried louder, I let go of his hand and covered my face again. He hugged me, rubbing his big hand at my back.

"Shhh, Kennedy, it's okay not to be okay. Just it let out" He whispered to my ears. "Everything is going to be okay. If not now then maybe tomorrow" He tried to comfort me, I know he doesn't know how to comfort someone but he was right.

Before I knew the darkness summoned me once again.
