THE UNEXPECTED SIBLING

I just exhausted my brain thinking about a lot of stuff until I fell asleep. But I never thought that I would see my father in my dreams. Although, for some reason, my mouth wouldn't open to say something, the only thing I remembered was when he called me daughter and came to asked for forgiveness for all the sins he had committed against me and my mother.

The only reason I realized I was crying was because he wiped the tears on my face with his hand. But why didn't I become enraged when he smiled at me and addressed me as a daughter? When I felt the warm embrace of a father who had been separated from me for a long time, I felt extreme happiness. I snapped out of my daydream and frowned. I woke up due to the alarm clock on my phone, which I put behind my pillow.

I got pissed off and accidentally dropped my fucking phone on the floor. Then I heard footsteps approaching my room. So, my spirit woke up, and I immediately picked up my cellphone. It's good that it has a case and doesn't have any scratches.

As expected, my mother knocked on the door. That girl really has a sharp ear. I accidentally dropped our plastic glass the other night, but she was already in my room and nagging at me in less than five minutes, which is very typical.

I was too lazy to walk to the door even though it was just a few steps away from my bed, so I responded to her by yelling. I know that she will just ask what was the sound she heard.

"NOTHING! I JUST DROPPED MY CELLPHONE!"

The spirit of sleep escaped my body when she yelled at me. I feel like even our neighbors heard her loud voice.

"IT'S 6:00 A.M.! Aren't you in a hurry? Isn't your office in Makati?"

I looked at my cellphone, and it was true! I opened the door, put my mother aside. I immediately ate my breakfast. I was lucky because we already had marinated chicken for breakfast and had some bread and coffee. While I was eating, she continued yelling at me, and my ears hurt so much.

"See? That's what happened when you were using your cellphone in the middle of the night! FYI, I've been waking you up for a while now, but you're not responding, so I thought you were dead. Be thankful that I am your mother and that I am taking care of you!"

I rushed through my meal so I could get dressed and leave right away. Fortunately, my body is already awake because of my mother's irritating voice. Damn, I dressed in less than 20 minutes! My mother complimented me on my corporate attire, which we bought at a cheap price. I didn't have time to talk to her, so I just kissed her goodbye after she gave me 10 dollars.

I was very well dressed and feeling fresh when I left the house, but as soon as I got on the tricycle, the smoke of different vehicles got into my clothes. Not only that, my clothes crumpled on the tricycle, and when I arrived at the building where I will work, I looked like a jerk in the eyes of different people. The comfort room in this building is actually way better than the dining area of our house. Not to mention that it was also equipped with high technology, as the toilets and sinks flushed without touching them.

After filling out my name in the lobby, I went up to the 20th floor where the office of Asia Brewery and Cocktails, my father's multibillion-dollar company, is located. As expected, there was a nice, hot boy who assisted me. I was shy to ask his name, so I just stole a glance at his small name tag on his chest.

He walked me inside Sir Michael's office, and I gave her an appreciative grin afterwards as a way to say thank you. I didn't hear anything from his lips, but his only response was a smile before he left me in the department of Sir Michael, which is the one who accepted me.

He gently curled his lips into a smile and stood up. "Good morning Stella! It's nice to see you in person again!"  

I was so amazed to hear his manly voice accent again!

"Thank you so much sir! I highly appreciate you accepting me for this job. I promised to do my best!" My English is not as good as his, but I guess he understood what I just said.

Sir Michael fixed his eyes on me and went in front of me. "You should have confidence in yourself. Let me introduce you to the people you will work with!"

We went outside, and in his office, the employees of his department stood up. I feel that I am too important to interrupt them in what they are doing. Sir Michael put his arm around my shoulder and spoke in a loud voice.

"I would like you to welcome the new part of our family, Ms. Stella!"

"Welcome!" said the boy with the name tag Bryant on his uniform. His lips pulled up in a broad smile.

I've got to admit, he is the most handsome employee I've ever seen in this building. His body is fit and has a very deep dimples. I shoved away the negative thoughts in my mind and just focused on what was happening at the moment.

A very hot girl corporate attire walked by the hallway, stealing attention from me. Her hair is in an Shaggy Bob Haircut with Bangs and I can smell her perfume even though she is far away from me.

Almost all the men in our department were thrilled and all the attention of the employees was focused on her. I exhaled an irritated sigh. I am a real woman and I got really jealous when I saw Bryant's eyes sparkled the moment he saw the girl. The woman gazed at our department and smiled. I raised an eyebrow at her, but luckily I was only on the edge of her sight. The moment she left, I blurted out a question to Sir Michael.

"Who is she, Sir Michael?" I asked with a frown.

He gleamingly smiled and responded. "Her name is Hailey. Actually, she is the only daughter of Sir Joseph and heir to this company. So please, once you see her anywhere, try to greet her!"

My hair stood up, and my eyes widened in shock. I had no idea that my father had another daughter who I think is similar to my age. I never saw her in all the articles I read, so my mind was disturbed.
