Chapter 20

• Shakeera's POV
• The pain, the pain I felt, too much pain to see my sister like that. I do not want to lie to her but it is necessary. I need to, I need to be strong in front of her. In her eyes. She was a smart kid. I knew hse didn't believe what I said, but she had to believe it.
• I went home first to get her things. And my things to use too. Still, my tears flowed while I was inside the taxi. I really can't stop them from falling. The driver also glanced at me. Because of my sobbing accent.
