NovelFinishChapter 339 KESTER.
TEN YEARS AGO.
I never clicked with anyone the way I clicked with my little sister.
Kasmine had this energy that could light up an entire fucking room, and, somehow, every part oftoo. She was laughter. She was warmth. She was this endless spark of joy that refused to burn out, matter what life threw at us.
Since that night four years ago, when I finally caved and let her be my friend, things had shifted for the better. She even madesee how good her mother was, and now, I was also cool with her, and I even called her Mum.

"I got you!" Kasmine's high-pitched giggle filled the room as she delivered another soft jab to my side.
I let out an exaggerated yelp and clutched my ribs like she'd broken something vital. "Ouch! You beast!" She squealed with laughter, bouncing on the bed like she had won an actual wrestling match.
"That's seven wins for me!" she beamed, holding up seven little fingers. One would think she had just conquered the damn world.

"That's right, Mine. You won," I grinned, lunging forward to tickle her.
She shrieked in protest, squirming under my grip and giggling so hard I thought she'd choke on air. "I've told you! That's not how you pronounce the Mine in my name!" "And I've told you before..."

But the idea of her running off to sit with him almost every evening play with him laugh with him... I didn't like that shit one bit. Besides, why was she so happy about a video game? The thought grated on my nerves for no reason.
"No, Kasmine. Stay with me. Don't go," I said quickly, reaching out and gently clasping her wrist. My fingers tightened just a little. "We were just having fun, weren't we? I mean... it's just a video game."
She narrowed her brows, "Not again, Kes. You never letvisit my friends. And now, they@re And now, starting to get closer to each other than they were to me. They think I don't want to be their friend anymore." She said sadly. Her shoulders dropped, and she stared down at the floor like she was ashamed to feel what she did.
