DIANA
I stared at the blondie standing beside Axel. My heart felt heavy in my chest, and my eyebrows pulled together in confusion.
Something about the way my parents looked at her didn’t sit right with me. They weren’t just shocked, they were speechless. And people hardly got that reaction from my parents.
Both my parents raised their hands at the same time, pointing toward her like they’d just seen a ghost.
Only my mom managed to find her voice.
“She’s… she’s beautiful,” she stammered.
Her eyes stayed on the girl, but her words were slow and unsure.
Then she turned to Kayden, who was standing stiff beside me, and added in a quieter voice, “She would suit you perfectly.”
I turned sharply toward her, stunned.
What was going on?
Why was my mom already pairing this girl with Kayden
