“iYou /iinamed /iiher /iiafter /imom?”

I could barely get the question out through my sobs. Sean smiled a wide smile and started to cry, he and my mom were always so close. For the longest time until me, he was her only baby. I hugged my new sister–inw one more time and picked my niece up, spinning her around just like Sean used to do me. I was finally home, my heart felt full. After we all got settled in, I introduced my brother Damon to everyone, Sean and Caroline wee him with open arms, as did little Grace. That night, after we all had dinner together, Damon and I got settled into our rooms, while Pera headed home.

“I’ll ibe /iihere /ito ipick /iiyou /iiup /iabout i12pm /iitomorrow /iifor /iibrunch /iitomorrow/ii! /iiThe /iigirls /ican’t iwait /iito /iisee /iiyou/ii!/ii” /i

After saying goodnight to everyone, I took a nice long bath. As I sat in the tub, I was reying all the events in my life and how everything had unfolded since arrived in Banton five years ago. I would make them all pay for what they did to me and for cursing my parents‘ names. The first thing I would do, is cancel all the connections I had lined up for Thomas.

The next morning, I heard a soft knock on my door. It was Damon, he walked shyly into my room, with a look of happiness on his face. I motion for him to sit with my on my couch

“iHey/ii, /iihow’d /iiyou /iisleep/ii?/ii” /i

“Oh iman/i, ithese /iibeds /iiare amazing/ii! /iiAnd /iithe /iiTechware /iiin /iimy /iiroom/i! iI /iifelt /iilike /iiI /iiwas /iiin /iithe /iifuture/ii! /iiWe /idon’t ieven /iihave /iithis /iitype /iof itechnology /iiin /iiBanton/i, ihell /iiin /iithe /iiwhole /iicontinent/ii!/ii” /i

Part of the reason I wanted Damon toe with me was because I knew he had a love for technology. I knew being in Covington and working with Prd could advance him in ways Banton couldn’t. This was definitely the right call.

“Well, that’s igood /iito /iihear/i. iI’m /iireally /iid /iiyou /iicame /iiwith /ime iDamon/ii./ii” /i

“Ruby, iI /ijust iwanted /iiyou /iito /iiknow /iiI’m /iireally /iihappy /iithat /iiyou /icame home, and I’m sorryi./i” fn2135 For more chapters visit f?ndnovel/fn2135

Damon held his head down almost as if he were ashamed of something.

“Damoni, /iwhat are you iapologizing /iifor/ii?/ii” /i

“For not being able ito /iprotect iyou /ibetteri. /iiFrom /ithem. I’m iyour /iibig /ibrother and I feel like I failed you, but even still, you brought me here iwith /iiyou/ii. /iiI /idon’t deserve this.”

Tears began to fill in my eyes. Had he felt like this the whole time? Damon had no idea how much he had saved me. If it weren’t for him, I don’t know if I would have survived in that house or with those people. I wiped the tears and hugged my brother tight.

i“/iiDamon/i, you’re so dumb. You have no idea how much you have saved me these past five years. I don’t iknow /iwhere I would have been without you, but imy /imoney is on dead.i” /i

Damon wiped his eyes and gave a tight hug. After our talk, I got dressed and headed out with Pera. As we grew close to our destination, I could see ballons, flowers, and a huge banner hanging. As soon as we got out of the car, both Tara and Brea came running over with smiles and tears.

“iOMG/ii!! /iiYou’re /iihere/ii!!! /iLook iat /iyou!”

Brea hugged me tightly with tears flowing from her face. Just then, Tara came over releasing her grip.

i“/iiLet /iher go iBrea/ii! /iiI /iwant a ihug /itooi!/ii” /i

We all shared a loudugh, Brea and Tara were just the same as I remember! This was the best home weing I could have imagined!
