EPISODE 3: THE NEW STUDENT
It's some minutes, almost midnight, and Ava still doesn't want to go home. Dad will soon be back home, and he'll freak out when he checks up on us and we aren't at home. "Ava! Let's go". I pulled my sister by the hand as she was about to publicly make out with some boy who happened not to be her boyfriend. "Ada! Stop". She removes her hand and refrains from walking with her legs. "Please, Ava, we need to go home.". I pleaded with my sister, but she had other plans. By going back to the same boy, I stopped her from kissing. Dad will soon be back, and if he doesn't see any of us home, we'd definitely be in huge trouble. "Ada, we should go.". Susa suggested it to me, and since she was ready to head home, I left Ava at the party and went with her. Nanny still hadn't slept when I came. "Where's Ava?". She questioned her whereabouts and where else she should be aside from the party. "She's still at the party." I replied to her. "At the party? Why didn't you bring her home?". She goes on to yell. "I'm sorry, I tried, but Ava doesn't want to go." I went into the kitchen and returned, holding a plate and a water bottle. I feel a little bit hazy, and it should be from the alcoholic drink Daniel gave to Susa and myself. "Goodnight, nanny, and don't worry about Ava; Dad should take care of this." I kissed her on the cheeks and retired to bed. The following morning, I could hear Ava and my dad screaming at the top of their lungs. If dad's yelling, it should mean he knows what happened last night... "I'm sorry, dad, but you cannot stop me!!". Ava angrily yelled at her dad when he threatened to ground her. . "Really! You are so getting punished, young lady." Dad reinforced by sending in some men, and they grabbed Ava after she successfully made them run awhile before catching her. Ava's taken to the time-out room; she should stay there until dad knows the specific punishment for his eighteen yet rebellious child... I was watching in the corner when my dad came back after locking Ava up and noticed me. "Ada! Did you see all that?". He extended his hand and pulled me in for a tight and fearsome hug. "Daddy, I'm really sorry about Ava; can't you at least forgive her?". I ask him, indirectly seeking forgiveness on my sister's behalf. . "No, Ava needs to be punished. I have been lenient enough with her; she's literally getting out of hand." Dad walks to his chair and requests breakfast. I sat next to him, but my mind was wrapped around how Ava should be feeling now.She should hate her dad so much for locking her up in the bathroom, but he is only doing this for her own good. . "Good morning, Ava.". I smiled and said, "I brought breakfast for you.". I took the tray in and kept it on the table. "Ada, please get out and take this with you." Angry Ava points at the food on the tray and asks me to leave. "I'm sorry, but dad forbade me from leaving until you had something to eat.". I stood my ground and refused to talk, taking a step back to the door. "Really? Fine!". Ava grabs the food along with the tray. I was thinking she had finally gotten over her anger, but she carried the tray and tossed everything, including the delicious cake bread nanny prepared with so much love out the window. "Happy! I'm done eating; now get out!" She threw the tray on the ground and watched me pick it up. . "Fine! Jesus, you're so annoying.". I angrily expressed my discontent with her sassy behavior. . "I'm sorry, what did you say to me?". She grabs my hand and forces me back to my eyes. "What did you say to me?". She asks me again, her hand squeezing my wrist. "What? Didn't you hear me well enough?" I shoved her hand and said, "I called you annoying and am definitely going to add a bitch as well!!" .. Ava raised her hand to hit me when Dad arrived right on the spot and stopped her. "Don't you dare!" He said.. "Dad! She called me a bitch; shouldn't you punish her as well?". Ava shifted the entire blame on me, forgetting that hers is way more abominable. Dad pulled me to stand at his back as he confronted my sister. "I won't punish Ada; do you want to know why?". She looks at me and then again at my sister. "W....why?". Ava shakily asked. "Because she's more mature than you and understands what family is.". Dad paused; he grabbed me by the other hand and pulled me out from hiding at his back. "Ava and Ada," he paused, and then continued afterward: "Tonight, we will set the record straight; who is going to become the chosen one, and anyone who becomes the chosen one, the other has to accept it and support her sister, do you understand?". Dad looks at Ava and says, "Yes, sir.". She teethed.. "Yes, daddy". He turned to me, and I answered. I went away with Dad; he has to take me away because I wouldn't want to be the reason why I get upset once more because of my sister. I love Ava, but sometimes she can be a pain in my behind. I changed for the academy, and since Ava was still serving her punishment, Dad asked me to leave without her. "Whoa! What's happening?". I could barely fit in the hallways because of the crowds of students prancing back and forth. "Good morning,!". Susa helps me find a more quiet and less crowded place, the library. "So, why's everyone busy? Did something happen, or worse, did someone die?" . . I question Susa, giving her two options to choose from. "Nah!" She laughed. "We are getting a new student, and everyone is preparing to welcome him." She makes it a specific gender. "Oh? It's a boy!?". I asked in a high pitch, and Susa nodded back and forth.EPISODE 4: A ROOM FULL OF SUGGESTIONS We are gathered at the assembly hall.Susa and I are snuggled in with ten girls at the front chairs, leading to the door. Mr. Jacob opened the doors, and a handsome male student followed him from behind. "Damn! His hot". The girl sitting next to me compliments the new student, and everyone agrees.I do find the new student attractive, and there may be a little bit of competition between him and David."Good morning, class, and welcome to another beautiful day at the academy.". Mr. Jacob spoke through the microphone. "This is Mr. Elijah Raven Wood, and he is our new student. I believe everyone will welcome him with open arms and show him the ropes.". He continues, and by the ropes, he means, we should give a grand tour to the handsome-handsome-looking students; the entire girls are beginning to droll."Who's going to be!?". An open question to the entire school.And like I had presumed, half of the girls raised their hands, and out of the m
EPISODE 5 : ACCEPTING FATE I came home from the academy, Ava's still grounded, and Nanny complained bitterly of how bitchy my sister had been since she's been locked up in the time-out room."Nanny, Did that go out for his meeting?". I sit across from the kitchen, asking her."Yeah! But he wants you and Ava to get dressed for tonight's ball party.". She flips the other side of the pancake, stopping it from burning. ."Oh! Did he give any other instructions?". I asked her on Ava's behalf."Yea! She has to come for the party, doesn't she?". She left a glass of freshly squeezed juice on the glass table in front of her and left.I had dinner alone because Ava was still locked upstairs. I wanted to bring something for her, but I had to refrain from doing that because of her behavior this morning.Ava's my sister, but sometimes I have evil thoughts I'd like to share with her."Good evening, Dad."I meet dad by the door, welcoming guests."Baby! You're looking beautiful." She wraps his f
The news got Ava so furious, all through the day she didn't talk to anyone nor eat anything. The following day, I tried to appease my sister with her favourite dish, but she looked at it with me and snob me by going to school _ Dad saw everything because he was standing at the corner of her, he watched his daughter furiously leave the mansion and this hasn't been the first time, Ava has left in such a state. "Don't worry, she'll come around" .That was what dad said, but as the day went on Ava kept on being a pain in everyone's behind inculding the teachers at school. Susa also noticed the tremendous change in my sister's behaviour, though, Ava as always been rude and obnoxious , her behaviour has gone from bad to worse."Okay! What is happening to your sister?"..Immediately after our last class for the day, she took me to the training room and asked me..I did not want to say anything to her but I couldn't keep that kind of information to myself, I was compelled to tell her everyt
After Dinner, Dad asked a few questions to Jackson about his relationship with his daughter, though, he didn't quite deny the fact that they had something going on, he didn't say anything meaningful either. And so in other to know more about his son-in-law, he asked Nanny to prepare the visitors bedroom. Ava could not contain the excitement on her face, she even hugged and kissed dad on the cheeks. For me? I had to sit down on watch, indeed there was something strange happening and Ava will never tell me about it. I grabbed the plates to the kitchen. I was busy cleaning up when Ava appeared and then asked me to prepare a cup of tea for Jackson..I knew she was trying to annoy me and if I Keep on indulging her, she'll become so freakishly irritation that we end up having a huge argument and all that because of her supposed boyfriend...In school Ava didn't stop flaunting him, she was so loud that everyone talked about her and Jackson the entire day. Not just that; I also had to a
The next day, there was a parents and teachers meeting going on in school and our Dad had just left to attend it. Before he left, I was asked to take good care of my sister. Why do I always have to be the one left in charge of my sister. Ava's always my responsibility and anytime I fail to look after her, she ends up creating a huge mess like she's about it right about now when I caught her talking on the phone to attend some Party in the night..She doesn't know that I listened to her conversation, I might not have known who had called her, but it was evident and clear that tonight's party's is being hosted by Fabian and his twin brother..They're just like us but stupid and lack style!It was because of the parents and teachers meeting classes were cancelled..Susa visited me a few minutes later and we stayed in my room until it was time to leave , before I followed Ava to her party.Ava didn't know that I had followed her to the party _ she was only stunned by my presence when I ap
It was the morning of dad's meeting, and as promised I went with him. Ava was still asleep and we didn't want to wake her up.They were a lot of people at the meeting and as my dad was engrossed in the adult meeting, I had the time by asking questions _ I wasn't the only child who had come with their parents, a few others came and it was thanks to them I discovered Jackson's family, he once served before..."Hello, can I help you, young lady?"..An old man came outside and met me.He addressed me as young lady, that would mean, he doesn't know who I am. "Good evening sir, I'm Ada and I am here to ask questions about your step son... Jackson". I paused before spilling out the name. He was hospitable enough to welcome me into his house, I looked everywhere and it would seem that he lived alone.."Sit down and tell me everything you want to know?"...He offered me a chair after coming back of the kitchen with a glass of water. He keeps the glass of water on the wooden table and the
An hour later and I received a phonecall from one of Ava's friends, at first when I saw her number flash on the screen of my phone, I thought she had called to annoy me like Ava always does; but it was fact that my sister had become drunk and she was unintentionally causing a drama at the party and they wanted me to come over and bring her back home..Manny was in support when I disclosed everything to her, she also wanted to come but it would've been a complete disaster when we leave the mansion together ."Don't worry, I'll bring Ava home" .I promised and then went to the party..I came and Lola took me to where Ava was being kept, my sister looked so horrible that I didn't quite recognise her.."What happened to her?". I grabbed Lola by the hand and Interrogated her.Since she was the one that called to inform me what was going on, she must've known what happened to my sister."I don't in know, but she's Intoxicated". As Lola replied to my question, she removed my hand.." I kn
We went to school the following day, and Ava could not stop talking about our Dad's relationship with Mrs Mary, our beloved nanny. As for me, I don't have any Issues against them being together but what I didn't understand was why they had to lie? Was it necessary to hide the relationship from us?.."Ada, we should get our nanny kicked out of the house" An evil plan came to Ava's mind, which is no surprise at all. She has always been the masterminder and has never run down from plans.." No, I don't think so". I debunked her question. As much as I don't like the fact that, they lied, I don't see anyone else that had complement with Dad..In school, Susa and I went to the cafeteria.She wanted a quick snack and while we were there, Ava came and she wanted to have a quick conversation with me.." I need you, let's go". She said, helping me to pick up my school bag. ..I couldn't stay with Susa at the cafeteria, I came back with my sister home and of all the things she wanted to do,
Lucas who felt the need to be a hero goes to the scene of the crime, I accompanied him for moral support, I don't buy the idea rhat we should do this all by ourselves , whst is going to the outcome when something happenes?..m at the store, there was no one around and it gave us the privilege to go through everywhere without giving the fear of getting cut. have the permission to be here, yet he seems not to care .That we might gets caught and we have to explain to the police the reason we had to come to the place that was off limits to pedestrians like ourselves..ith me, he still wanted to check around the office,maybe the entire building before agreeing to leave..I didn't find anything aside from the old shopping cart's and some used items that might've been forgotten or Lost by a few customers.."I didn't find anything," I whispered to him, it was loud enough to hear me. Caleb didn't care to answer me and just left, I was him heading to the office at the east wing of the place, t
Caleb and I both went home together after our confrontation, despite my tactics to have him spill the truth, he didn't, he went into the bedroom and slammed the door hard behind.."Sarah! Is everything okay?". Uncle who was just coming out from his bedroom, saw what happened and couldn't help but ask. As much as I would've loved to tell him the truth, I didn't, I made up and excuse and left for my bedroom afterward..The following morning, I was sent to leave for school, I passed by Caleb's bedroom and thought about checking on him, so I approached his door and knocked on it, waiting to hear his response, I didn't hear anything until a maid came by and she informed me that he had left for school quite early in the morning.What an jerk, why didn't he wait for me.I couldn't stay back for breakfast, so I collected a slice of bread and an apple on the table before leaving, uncle was still in his bedroom and he didn't see me leaving. .I was in school and then went to class, Tori was
"What? Are you both drunk?". Caleb approached us at the bar, Tori Swifty tilted her head to me, she smiled as I did too before veering it back to him."We aren't drunk?". She replied to Caleb.Caleb however, didn't want to say anything. He held my hand and pulled me out of there.."Sit down" he said as he pushed me against the couch, he then goes away and brought back a glass of water. ."Drink?". He said and tried to feed me ."No! I don't want it?". I grumbled, struggling to take his hand away , but Caleb was so stubborn he took my hand away and forced me to drink the water, he only let me go after i had emptied the bottle. Thanks to the water, I was able to get myself ."Whoa, what happened!". I scrubbed my head and scattered my hair in the process..m"I don't know but you tell me? , he came toward me like he was about to scream to my face, " why did you drink too much?" He reprimanded, his voice wasn't loud as I had imagined it would be.I tried giving him reasons to my behav
"You selfish bastard!!?". Jake yelled at his brother immediately the mansion was cleared from the party.."Selfish? Don't be funny". Damon said with a nonchalant attitude... Making Jake more madder.."Really? I am funny?". He laughed momentously and turned to Derrick.."Please speak to your brother because he is again acting smart". He went into the kitchen..Derrick tried to speak to Damon about what happened at the party, I was still engrossed in the shock, however I decided to let Damon and his brother's settle their differences.."Bro! You shouldn't have done this"..Derrick said to his brother, Jake came back from the kitchen and he overheard their conversation.."I shouldn't? I am doing this for Sara's safety". Damon arrogantly replied.."Really? Have you gone mad?"..Behind Jake reacted, and walked up to his brother.."You're doing this for Sara's safety?" He laughed mockingly.."Yes! Did you forget what happened?". With a serious face he replied his brother.."I haven't, b
Mom bid me farewell before I left for the mansion, Derrick was the one who had come to pick me up at home.With everything happening today, attending classes will definitely not be in the agenda.."Welcome Sara!"..Jake and Damon both welcomed me together, immediately I came down from the car..Derrick was behind fetching my luggage, he took his time to get my six bags down and drag them inside of the mansion...We both went into a huge room, a few rooms away from them.Derrick goes ahead and keeps my luggage at the corner of the room next to the huge wardrobe.He later asked me to come downstairs whenever I was done settling in.With my bags this much, I don't think I'd be coming downstairs anytime soon...Evening came and I had just finished putting the last cloths inside of the wardrobe, I finally had the chance to come downstairs to meet with Damon and his brother's.."Hello Sara!". Derrick saw me coming toward them and he called, making his brothers head turn back at the same t
Damon was asked to take me home, he Volunteered to take me home, even when Derrick suggested too."Thanks!" I tell him having to smile big at him..."Welcome!" Damon want down and opened the car door for me, I grinned, touching a little of his shoulders and go away.He waited for me to go in before driving off..I met mom at the kitchen."Good evening mom!" I walked inside, I was heading to grab a bottle of water from the refrigerator when I heard her reply."You're late!?" She said authoritatively, frantically hitting the innocent pots on the gas stove.When I turned and looked at her, I noticed the amount of anger on her face, I'm only late, it's not as i came back the following morning."Mom! Do you want to say something to me?". I dropped the bottle of water on the kitchen table and approached her, standing by the hot pot on the gas stove..She rolls her eyes, and she left the kitchen, taking the hot pot on the fir along...Mom didn't want to talk to me.She kept on venting her
"We came so we can tell you the truth?"Damon after letting his brothers converse .I twisted to him, with a dubious glance.."So? What other truth?".. I raised a question."Who Veronica is and why she died?". He answered back virtually immediately his head turned to his brother and they all communicated with their eyes.."Are you sure, we should?"..Derrick came onward, and asked them.."Yeah! Since she has the heart, it's best we keep her up to date for what's about to happen". Jake responded to his brothers inquiry, he tardily veered around to Damon and give him the chance to speak..Derrick brought a chair over for me.."Sit!" He declared and went to the mini fridge, he brought out a bottle of beer, three to be precise, one for him and the additional two for his brothers..."Samantha!?". Damon summoned, he Inhaled coming to terms with his voice "Yes?" I spun over and replied him..He grinned , took out his hand and let out.."Everything happened years ago, I was set to get marr
I had to go into the pool and single handedly bring Ivanna out of the ice cold water.We both went in our drenched clothes into the restroom to change into something comfortable. Jake brought over a some clothes to change into.Ivanna was still a little bit intoxicated, I had to wear her cloths and then send her out to wait for me.I first had to dry my hair with the hand dryer gotten with the change of clothes by Jake..I was occupied getting out of my cloths when the lights to the mansion went off_ we were in total darkeness .My phone was on the bathroom table, I picked it and turned on the flashlight.I wasn't expecting to find anyone in, however the moment my phone flashed around the room, I was terrified out of my sanity, the moment it flashed by the face of a someone who stood at the corner and watched me, with the face coated. I almost let go of my phone, however I got enough courage, and I came back glimpsing once more with my phone flashlight, I didn't seem to find anyone
Samantha pov Have you ever wished upon a star and it came to pass? Amazed right? That was precisely how I felt the period I had come upon a wishing star and I desired to be the most adored girl in school, loved by the three handsome Lakewood brothers. Jake Lakewood, Damon Lakewood, and Derrick Lakewood. They were the boy every girl in school wanted, including myself. you can say, I found it hard to belong to the set of girls the Lakewood brothers who ever consider talking to or going on a date with. That however changed the time I wished on a wishing star and the following week, I had Jake Lakewood, the eldest talking to me.He invited me to sit with him at the table, with his brothers. That day, I became the envy of the entire school, every girl who wandered by and specked me seating at the same table with the Lakewoods, had the same combination of disdain and covetousness on their countenance...The impulsive allure of the Lakewood brothers to me, terrified me so much that I ha
