One evening, you were sitting on your couch while scrolling through your phone, feeling more bored than ever... and also a bit sad.

Your mother and your father both got divorced for some reasons that they didn't want to tell you, so you were without a father for... about a month and two weeks now.

You really had a strong friendship with him, but you haven't heard about him since the divorce.

You were wearing a oversized hoodie and sweatpants since it was winter and it was really cold. You were under your favorite blanket, trying to be as warm as possible.

You were currently home alone since your mother left to do somethings, and she also didn't tell you about those things.

You sighed and closed your eyes before suddenly, you heard the door open. You didn't bother to look because you thought it was just your mother, until you heard the footsteps not only from your mother, but from someone else.

Was it dad?

You quickly turned to look, your eyes bright with hope, but that expression changed into confusion when you saw another man other than your father, and he was looking back at you.

He looked quite young to be honest, about your mother's age. By the way, she was 28.

Tall, black hair, brown eyes...

"Hey sweetie, this is Riley, your new stepdather."

Said your mother with a smile. Riley walked towards you with a smile and shook your hand gently.

"Nice to meet you. Your mother told me a lot about you..."

Riley said, his deep voice sending a shiver down your spine.

"Well, I'll leave you two to get along, I'll cook dinner. By the way, we will be moving to his mansion in a few days."

Said your mother before leaving the room, leaving you and your stepfather alone.
