Chapter 121: Bored Out of my Skull

VOLUME INTERLUDE: A SECRET MELODY

Melody's POV:

Six years ago...

Maths class. I'm bored out of my skull.

I'm actually pretty good at Math and if I had a different teacher, I'd probably pay more attention, but I bloody hate Mrs Partridge and so my mind always wanders in Math.

It's not intentional.

It doesn't happen in any other lesson except Math. My big brother says it's because I'm not challenged enough.

He thinks I'm a genius. I think he's wrong.

My phone has been confiscated or I'd text my little brother, Ayden. He's barely a year younger than me. We're pretty close. We both go to boarding school but at different ends of the country, a fact I find unbelievably frustrating.

Our big brother, Landon, the serious one, is at University so we don't hear from him too often.

He's a bit of a jerk.
