CHAPTER 14

The second picture was another lady in strawberry blonde hairs, a one-sided dimple smile on her face as she stretched her hand towards the camera as the picture was taken. A feeling of familiarity hit me and I crinkled my eyes in concentration as I tried to remember where I might have met her before. Maybe I once saw her photo in the magazine like Connor's. I glanced at Connor and the small gentle smile on his face was enough to tell me who she was. 'Tory. My girlfriend." I nodded, feeling my heart falling out of place, landing gently gently down like the dried broken leaves in autumn. Broken. Stop exaggerating, Kenzie. 'Oh." I replied. 'We have been together since our college days. My parents think she is not a good fit for me. That was when she came up with this idea." I frowned and ransacked my brain as I tried to comprehend his word. 'She came up with the idea of a fake girlfriend?" I looked at him in complete dismay. 'Yes." He nodded, taking it too normal for my liking.
