Harrison, New York
I opened the front door and stepped outside with my bags hanging
on me like Christmas decorations. “Not a word,” I said to the two boys
leaning against the black car, already packed in and ready to go. Connor
snapped his mouth shut, and from the corner of my eye, I saw Thomas turn
his gaze toward the sky before he walked up to me and grabbed the bag off
my shoulder and the suitcase out of my hand and put them into the trunk.
“Thanks,” I said, without expecting an answer.
The older Rhodes brother almost never talked to me since our parents
announced that they were moving in together. I turned to Connor, and he
opened the back door so I could push the rest of my bags into the seat. “And
thanks to you too,” I said, shaking my arms, trying to get the blood flow
back into them.
“You could have told me that you needed help.” Connor elbowed me as
we leaned against the car. I looked up at him and watched the sunlight play
within his blond curls. “I could have sent Thomas in to help you.” He
grinned.
“Funny.” I made a face.
The front door of the house opened and Helena Green, my mother,
walked out, followed by Joshua Rhodes. Her latest boyfriend, and the first
she had moved in with since my dad. I had a feeling the nice house Josh
lived in played into her decision just a little bit, because they barely saw
each other whether they lived under the same roof or not. The price of
success, it seemed. My mother was an attorney, working nonstop, day and
night if that’s what the case required, and Joshua Rhodes, Thomas and
Connor’s dad, had a successful architecture firm in New York, which, as an
open secret, he intended to leave to his oldest son.
My mother was already in her work clothes, a black blazer with
matching pants and one of her fancy briefcases in her hand. As always, she
put her brown hair—so similar to mine—into a tight bun. Her high heels
knocked harshly against the sidewalk as she approached me, and pulled me
into a quick hug, awkwardly patting my back.
She always hugged me when
I was going away. Not other times, though. She usually didn’t have time for
these kinds of things. She let go of me just as suddenly as she hugged me
and tugged a loose hair behind my ear.
“Kinsley.” Her tone was flat. Seemed like the pretending hadn’t reach
her voice just yet.
