Lies (Shay #3)

What if I’ve lost my sister forever?

Being with Nathan is a whole new experience, and I wanted to keep him all to myself. But Sasha has been there my whole life, and what if Nathan and I don’t make it? What then? Is he worth losing my heart over? Because however much it would break my heart not to be with him, it would kill me to lose my sister.

Doesn’t she deserve to be a part of my happiness, even if her own world is crumbling at the moment?

I’ve lost my mom already; I can’t lose my twin, my other half. Life wouldn’t be worth living without Sasha being my safe harbor.

Sasha left a note. It says she’s leaving me; I don’t know for how long. And it scares the shit out of me. I experience a moment of panic, my breath catching in my chest, and I’m unable to fill my lungs with air.

Why does that hurt so much?
