Chapter 23

• “I missed you guys so much, but I don’t understand how you guys are alive. I watched you both die in my arms. That was the worst day of my life,” I say still holding tight to my brother's hands.
• “We will explain everything later. But first we eat and entertain the guests that should be here any minute,” papa says.
• As soon as papa finishes speaking, Vanessa comes to announce that the guests are here. The family that walks into the living room just made this whole night a lot more exciting and confusing, when Enzo and his entire family walk in. The surprise on our faces could not be faked—but only between us children—as our parents don’t look fazed by anything that is happening. I am already shocked to see my brother and father, who I thought were dead, alive today. And now I am finding out that my family knows Enzo’s family, but the big question is how? Because even though some of my memory is back, it’s still a little shady. I can’t recall ever meeting Enzo’s family when I was younger. Enzo walks up to my Papa and greets him, before walking up to me with the same confused expression on his face as I have on my face.
