#Chapter9

Like father like son

After my dad and uncles came to help me with Emma’s dilemma, things got better between the rest of us. Liam promised not to screw things up, and I promised not to throw him into any more mirrors.

Emma and I continued our daily runs and studied together. Thanks to dad and my uncles, I couldn’t invent needing help with the assignments: way to kill my vibe there, guys.

On the plus side, we became friends. Emma hung out with us from time to time, including me hanging out with her and her roommates. They were a little too enthusiastic about my taste, but they were friends with Emma.

One night I walked her home, and we were talking until I said, /"I want to show you something./"

/"RJ, it’s dark, don’t you think?/" She asked me.

/"Well, we can do this the effortless way or the hard way,/" I said to her.

/"What do you mean the hard way?/" Emma asked me.
