The sunlight slithered into my eyes warming my face.

My throbbing head decrease. However, the cramps bugged me all night.

Yesterday, the brownies were able to satisfy my chocolate cravings. I thanked Cayden more than once for that.

I don't know about you, but when I drink coffee I mentally and emotionally relax. That's why I had good sleep.

"You up?", Cayden was laying on his belly facing the TV, although he was scrolling through his phone, "How are you feeling?"

"Keep your stinky feet off me!", I shoved him off the bed.

"Ouch?!", I wasn't in the mood.

"Finally it's Saturday! I'll stay in bed all day long!"

"No you're not", he pulled me to sit straight, "It's puppy day, remember?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!", I jumped out of bed regretting it a second after, "Ow! Ow! Ow!", my a lightning of pain struck my injured ankle.

Cayden said between coughs, "Karma...", he referred to me throwing him off the bed.

"Hey!", I rolled my eyes, "Wait, I have to teach Daniel!"

Why do I always forget?!

"Oh, I just remembered. I don't have to be there until three in the afternoon", I stated.

The good thing is that after Amelia found out about my ankle she insisted on me coming after three in the afternoon so I could rest.

"Who's Daniel?", I remember telling Cayden that I teach a kid every Friday and Saturday. He seemed to forget.

"He's -"

Crap! I was going to tell him: he's Ryder's younger brother.

"He's the kid I teach", a pang of guilt consumed my heart.

I mean it's not a complete lie. I didn't lie, right? I just hid the truth.

What am I supposed to say?

Hey, Cayden! Daniel is the boy who I have been giving him private lessons for the past three months, and guess what? He turns out to be Ryder's younger brother meaning I'll be spending two days per week aside from school under a roof the same as Ryder!

Yeah?

NO! OF COURSE, I CAN'T SAY THAT!?

"Oh...", he closed his eyes remembering.
