2021-03-30 17:02:25"And you just don't stand there like a dumb doll, go study" Mrs Parker told her younger daughter walking out of the room.
Too many who viewed the scene might feel like Mrs Parker was not a huge fan of Her younger daughter but that was not the case.
Mrs Parker loved all her children dearly. Isabella was 20 years old and in third year of Graduation. She was both loved by her mother and father for she had always been an easy child. She was never demanding or cause any trouble to her parents in her teenage years.
Her brother Lucas though was Sante's twin had taken up more on to Isabella.
Both Lucas and Sante were 17 year old and were unidentical twins. They had both taken on their appearances from their mother, Which meant that they were both blessed with beautiful red hair which complimented their pale complexion and hazel eyes.
Isabella on the other hand had taken up her appearance on her father which meant she had sun kissed brown hair with her light brown eyes that complimented her pale wheatish complexion.
Whenever the three of them went out together she hardly looked like Lucas and Sante's sibling.
Lucas and Sante were somewhat similar in the looks but they behavioural patterns were completely different.
Lucas was more like Isabella if not even better than her. He was a quiet kid who barely talked to anyone unless and until talked to. He always maintained perfect grades but that didn't necessarily make him a nerd. He was beautiful and athletic, Irrespective of being extremely smart in his academics he was also the captain of the school soccer team, Girls swooned over his feet but unlike the football Captain cliche he Wasn't a playboy.
He had a bad break up three years ago And that was the reason he was not ready to date yet.
Sante on the other hand was completely opposite, she was the rebellious hard to maintain sort of kid. That was what made Mrs Parker specially hard on her although Mr Parker always managed to convince Mrs Parker against grounding her or taking away her phone which meant that she must have done something really terrible this time.
"Hey! Izz" Lucas smiled.
"Hey Lucy! How are you?" Isabella laughed.
"I am great! how is university treating you?" he asked shaking his head at her nickname for him.
"It's just kicking my ass" Isabella groaned.
"Language" Sante Mimicked in Mrs Parker's voice which made both Lucas and Isabella laugh out loud.
"What did she do this time?" Isabella asked.
"You wouldn't believe izz! I swear I know that she's my twin but the shit she does always shocks me, like every time I think that she cannot do something more mischievous than this and every time she shocks me" Lucas shook his head.
"Now even I am curious! what is it?" Isabella laughed.
"She got inside the school ducts and threw a can of black paint on the principles head" Lucas exclaimed.
"She didn't do it did she?" Isabella gasped.
"She did!" Lucas groaned.
"I wonder if she has any intelligence left inside that Skull of hers" Lucas complained.
"It's not my fault that you are a nerdy pussy" Sante stuck out her middle finger at him.
"Sante Parker! Now you're grounded for another week!" Mrs Parker growled.
"But izz just said ass and you didn't say a thing" Sante groaned.
"Well she didn't Gave her principal a bath with a black paint, Now get back to your room" Mrs Parker groaned.
"Whatever! Bye izz!" Santa left towards her room rolling her eyes.
"Lucas you too hurry up to your school" Mrs Parker said taking the phone away from him.
"Bye izz! Love ya" Lucas exclaimed And planted a goodbye kiss on his mother's cheek and left.
"Love ya too Lucy!" Isabella laughed.
"Oh God I'm exhausted Bella! I just don't get why she can't be like Lucas or you. You were such an easy kid, It just seems like she doesn't want to listen and I don't know what she will end up doing with her life if she continues to behave this way and your father, Even he doesn't say a thing to her, Always telling me to let her mistakes go" Mrs parker complained.
"It's okay mom! I know she does a hell out of reckless things but she will get better. Once she grows up and realises that life is not all about fun and jokes. she will learn to behave more responsibly"
"I don't think so Bella! I am afraid that she will end up doing something that will ruin her life forever"
"Don't say something like that mom, it's all going to be fine" Isabella consoled.
"I wish she was like you or Lucas" Mrs Parker exclaimed.
"WELL I AM NOT! That is why you hate and despise me" Sante exclaimed in the background as she ran upstairs to her room with a water bottle in her hand.
"Shouldn't have said that in front of her" Isabella remarked.
"I didn't knew she was here" Mrs Parker replied in protest.
"Talk to her mom! Try to understand her. I don't say that her actions are justified but maybe what your anger couldn't change your love will!" Isabella exclaimed and her mother became quiet for a moment.
Another alarm blared indicating that it was 8:30 and she would be super late if she didn't leave right now.
"Mom I Gotta leave, talk to you later! I love you" she exclaimed.
"Love you baby"

Mrs Parker knocked at the door asking Isabella to accompany her downstairs."I am coming in a moment, mom" she replied.With the havoc of dexter disappearing after the conversation, Isabella couldn't think of anything else, not even to the point where she would have bought any single normal present for Sante. She just had one present and two siblings waiting downstairs.Just like she had predicted some Snoopy neighbour had gotten hold of her and dexter having a conversation and reported it to her mother and father.Her father had always been pretty uninterested in her business which meant he neither

"Ofcourse" Isabella replied squeezing her palm in assurance."The food is here" Lauren's joyful voice broke the conversation between the two.After handing over burger, fries and a Coke to Isabella and a grilled sandwich to Marissa. Lauren had gotten herself a pizza.Once they started munching on the respective food It was Lauren who broke the silence."So what are you all doing for winter vacations?"They had a revision test scheduled on Monday and the winter vacations were starting from Tuesday.Although Lauren had asked the question to everyone, it was pretty clear that she and Marissa were going to do the same thing so the question was basically directed towards Isabella."Oh me!

And Isabella herself loved the idea of having the two of them as a roommate but Mrs Parker was not very happy to comply.Mrs Parker was not very happy about whom Isabella was going to live with and she didn't want their company to affect her academics and therefore denied the whole idea.It wasn't Marissa that Mrs Parker had a problem from but Lauren.

TAKEN Epilogue
I watched as the stars twinkled on the bright night. Alone standing there made me realise how much significant change had been there in my life in last two years. Life never got easy did it? Two years ago I was telling Dexter that we will get through everything and anything After almost believing that he was dead. And as I stood here all alone looking at the stars from this cliff and the water beneath this height I couldn't help but wonder about him. Everything was hopeless when we found each other there was no clue how we were going to get through it. Marco hadn't woken up in three years and there was no guarantee that he ever will And yet we were still clinging to the full little hope that someday he might and then the two of us could I have forever for ourselves. For ever was the most forbidden concept for humans. Humans at the end of the day as we are, are mortal and perishable. It took me back to memory of a seminar that I attended once, there we talked about humans mortality

" you already know about Marco and Maria and how the two of them were having a child. maria wanted Marco to leave the mafia but that wasn't really possible so instead he took her on a vacation to enjoy the news but something went horribly wrong and the wrong people got the clue that the two of them were spending their time on the island. so he was attacked, the attackers killed Maria and almost killed Marco until he went to coma. and that was the day before Thanksgiving, it was my father calling me ...commanding me to come back because the mafia was my responsibility now. obviously I did not want to go back but that does not change a thing because I was abducted back into the world but then they didn't want the news to go round that Marco was in coma, so I was made to look like Marco since we were pretty much identical and I was to manage mafia instead of him until he wakes up which he did not from last three years." He explained."But you are in power now right? so if you wa

"You are right I have a lot of explaining to do but let's start with introducing you to my brother that is my older step- brother Marco McCoy"Isabella settled patiently at the couch ready for him to explain his story although she would have found it much better if Dexter just sat beside her but maybe he was not just ready to face her yet so he sat on the barstools just beside his brother's bed, looking at him with care and love as he started explaining the story. The only think Isabella couldn't understand was how could Dexter look at him the way he did when Marco and his mother had been nothing but brutal to him."Jacob McCoy! the asshole and unfortunately my father Had tricked Marcos mother into marrying him for a peace treaty that could gain him the power but you already know of that story by Robert.And if you were standing long enough outside that hospital door you would know that my supposed mother is drug addict, which meant that she was ready to s

"Isabella" he said in a shocked voice."You have a lot of explaining to do" she exclaimed folding her hand in a protective manner around her torso. It was maybe that action that made his eyes zero on her now injured and bandaged arm and in a second the worry was shining in his eyes."What happened to your hand?" He asked concerned."I'll be the one asking questions now" She growled before walking inside and dragging him outside the hospital with his hand in hers."Where are we going?" he asked once they were outside."I don't know" she said as she turned to look at him.It was like she was finally looking at him all over again. That face was the guy she had loved immensely, The only difference was his electric blue eyes and the beard covering his face.She tried to utter something, anything. She wanted to shout at him demanding answers about why he lied about his own death and claimed to have killed himself and yet the shock of everyt

Another month had passed and Isabella was better at keeping up with the classes right now because her parents were forced into the college one month ago when she did not go to talk to the professor herself. To say Her mother was disappointed would be an understatement, she was madly furious and threw all sorts of colourful words Isabella's way before her father had to drag her mother away but he did not leave before giving Isabella a disappointed look.Luckily Sante and Lucas did not know anything about this whole crisis but they did call her up later. Lucas was just worried about her health but Sante looked like she could almost relate to what ever Isabella was going through and told her older sister to be the big Great sister she always has been and not to think a lot about mom, dad or anyone or being a disappointment because right now the only priority was her mental health and not anything that made her feel like a failure.Isabella felt much better after talking w

"Kill them all" Marco commanded in the cold voice before taking the lift up to his penthouse.He could still feel faint smell of her lingering into the penthouse although it sounded insane since it had been three months since she left. But maybe Marco was actually going insane after losing her.Marco knew that he could have just told her the truth, removed the blue contacts and everything would be as clear as crystal And yet only he knew that he could not. There was a reason why he was Marco now and that was deadly enough not to just overthrow him and his entire non-existent family but all the mafia syndicates in the world.The only way to keep everything under control was him being Marco. He couldn't even explain it in words the feeling he feels it is hard when she confessed that she had indeed loved him all those years and that she still did, But he also knew that she loved Dexter and he was no longer Dexter, he was Marco and there was no getting away from it.

Isabella sat quietly in the classroom looking outside the window."Miss Parker" A loud and stern voice made her stop her gazing towards the trees."Yes sir?" She answered mechanically."You may leave the class since you are so much more interested into what's going on outside." He answered annoyed.Isabella quietly picked up her bag and started walking out of the class unconcerned."I would like to have a talk with you after the class Miss Parker" The professor murmured before she left.It had been three months since she was kidnapped. Isabella found herself walking towards her dorm room unwilling to have any communication with the professor.In truth she was unwilling to have any communication with anyone except for two people. Unfortunately one of them was dead and another one had killed the first one.Just like Isabella had wanted Marco did not try to communicate with her even once after she left. On days Isabella found hers

But there was only one thing Isabella could think of Dexter was dead and Marco was his bitter murderer stepbrother."Tell me he's lying! Tell me you didn't kill Maria. Tell me you didn't kill Dexter and you calling me a sweetheart was just a coincidence and not you keeping an eye on him and knowing it full well that that's what he called me" Isabella growled pulling Marco by his collar Begging him to say that all this that she had been told was a lie but he kept quite.Isabella couldn't help as the sobs wracked her body and she collapsed on the floor crying her heart out."You did it didn't you? You killed dexter, You killed my first love." She accused and something shifted in his eyes.She forcefully picked herself up from the ground as she caught his collar again shaking him furiously."You knew me all along. you knew all of this. you had been keeping an eye on Dexter and that is how... you knew me. that is how you knew everything.

"My my! a girl in Marco McCoy's bed. That's a sight I never thought I would see" he smirked looking at Isabella and she suddenly felt exposed as she pulled the blanket to her chest."Get out Robert before I pull your gut out!" Marco snarled. Isabella look at him concerned he was overpowered the man in front of him was pointing freaking gun at him and he still has the courage to throw a threat on his face."You have no manners whatsoever how to talk in front of such a beautiful lady do you?" He asked creepily and Isabella wished she could sank into the bed."Stop looking at her or I'll gorge your eyes out and feed them to My Sharks" Marco threatened."You sure possessive of this little one here, though I must say she is not half as beautiful as your last one. You remember her don't You Marco? Her belly swelled with your child such a happy day it was, until you broke into a fit of rage, What do you think is going to happen to this one here?" Robert asked.
