Unusual was one way to describe his parents’ relationship. Leila had often wondered aloud what their calm mother had seen in their brash father, but Malik had chosen to see their union as a sign that opposites really did attract.

brash father calm mother wow can this family get anymore relatable

“Why the elastic?” “Ah, so that next time you feel like doing that”—Adetunde nodded at the stinging cuts on Malik’s arms—“you do this instead.” He snapped the elastic against the inside of Malik’s wrist, and Malik flinched at the sudden pain.

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST PARTS OF THE BOOKOKAY AHHHHHHHHHH

“The library! I told you last night, I was going to use today to do some research while you were busy with your Champion duties.”

“Get up.” A girl with bright amber eyes crouched beside Malik, offering him her hand. In this chaotic, blurry world, she was the only thing in perfect focus, and Malik didn’t fight as she pulled him to his feet. Hand in hand, they slipped through the raid and into a darkened doorway several streets from the plaza.

AHHHHHHHHH
