She wanted a divorce so badly but he pleaded with her and sincerely regret ever cheating on her.
Considering she had two kids for him, and with so much pleading from them, she decided to stay. At first when Bella came to stay with Reid in his mansion, with her two kids (Anna and keturah) the house became a living hell.
The step siblings love each other so much but their moms were never at peace. They quarrel and nag all the time.
But two years back, they settle their differences and the house became a home. Bella and kara became the the best wife and mother Mr Reid once wished for.
Keturah and Anna are Bryan and Daisy step siblings. Anna is as old as Bryan, they are the eldest among the four. Though Anna and Bryan argue of being the oldest.
Keturah and daisy were just like twins, their bond was stronger, they sleep on the same bed and do lot of stuffs together... Keturah was indeed Daisy best friend; apart from playing the role of being her sister.
Daisy was the shy type and never fit into a crowd, apart from her parent and siblings; she does not feel too comfortable outside.
~DAISY~
"Can you be a little snappy please! Bryan yelled from outside as he stood near his yellow spot car. Anna and Kelly were all dressed up for school already; i was the only one left behind.I woke up late and don't know why Kelly refused to wake me up on time.
I rushed out of the sitting room after taking an apple from the fridge."I hate it when i have to wait for you for hours" Bryan complained when i moved closer to him. "Get in" he spoke with a growl and moved himself into the driver's seat.
Anna sat at the front seat while Kelly sat with me at the back seat as usual.
"Why didn't you wake me up?" I asked Kelly"Am so sorry Daisy... I woke up late too and it didn't occur to me to tap you. Are you mad at me?? She asked innocently
" No! No... I can't be mad at you" I said with a smile and she smiled back.
Am glad you are not mad at me. She said and held my hand as Bryan continue to drive us to school.I turned and stared at anna, she has not said a single word since she woke up. I wonder what's wrong with her.
Or did she wake up from the wrong side of the bed?? I thought."Hey big head" Are you okay?? You don't look good. Bryan asked anna as if he was reading my mind.
"Yeah! Am fine" she replied in a cracked voice."You don't seem fine to me". Kelly said to anna, but anna didn't spare her a stare or to even reply her with a single word.
We all kept quiet as the uncomfortable silence stepped in. On a normal day, the drive to school use to be so much fun; why is today different huh?
"Kelly! Anna called almost in a whisper. " yes!" Kelly replied as we all focus our attention on them. Anna sighed... "Austin broke up with me last night" she said like she was about to cry.
What?? Austin!
Why? Kelly asked as she could not hide her curiosity.I was so shock too, same as Bryan.Anna and Austin were known as the adorable couples in school... I don't know why Austin decided to breakup with her especially in their senior year.
Like is not fair! They have been together for two good years.What happened?? Bryan asked with concern.
"He choose a bitch over me, i can't believe he choose another girl over me. I swear i will make sure i deal with him in my own ways" she said in rage."Calm down okay. You don't have to work yourself up all because of a guy that does not deserve you anna." Kelly stated.
I just listened... and didn't say a word. So this is how love can be, love can turn to hate; while hate can turn to love too.I used to admire Anna and Austin love life, they were so perfect like nothing would ever seperate them. What happened??
What went wrong? I was deep in thought not until i noticed our car driving into the school compound."So he choose another girl over you? that guy is a scumbag! Bryan said in gritted teeth. Am definitely going to deal with him myself." He added.
Tho Bryan and Anna has always been the cat and rat, but i was so happy seeing the way Bryan cares for her, and loves her just as he loves me.
He is so protective of us and i love him for that. Though it get out of hand at times, when he trys to play the daddy role on me.We all stepped down and just then we sighted Austin stepping out of his car. He was wearing a black shirt and a blue jean. He looks happy like nothing happened.
I saw the way Bryan was giving jim a dead glare and i know things won't end well."Go in! He said to us with a straight face, i need to teach this fool a lesson he will never forget." And he left us standing right there while he began to walk towards Austin.
"Oh no! This is not good...things won't end well. What if he gets a detention or get suspended for attacking Austin first. Besides there are lot of eyewitnesses around.
" Bryan wait! I called out to him but it was too late.
Oh my! How can we stop him now?~DAISY~Oh my God! He is really going towards him. Please do something anna. I said in nervousness. I know Bryan so well, he can be stupid and crazy sometimes. And this is definitely one of the moment. "Bryan! Bryan! Anna called his attention and thank heavens he stopped walking.He turned around and faced us." What? " he yelled in a cold tone. Geez! Why is he looking so angry?The three of us rushed to him, just let him be Bryan... I could have been more careful not to date a jerk like him. Anna stated. " I can't let him go without a punch! Why the hell did he hurt you huh? Didn't you see the way he was smiling? Bryan asked in annoyance. "Being mad right now will not change the fact that we broke up already okay? Please let's just go." Anna stated in a calm voice. Bryan kept quiet for some seconds, he was still trying to digest what anna just said. " But I swear, next time he trys something insensible; am going to b
"Daisy! really? Do you have to think all day before giving me an answer?" She asked while rolling her eyes at me. "Okay, Kelly! I called...I took a quick deep breath. Am not crushing on Dave." I mumbledKelly looked at me with a blank expression. "Then why are there pictures of him in your drawer? How can you explain that? She asked anxiously as she rushed her words. I sighed... This girl is never going to give up huh? Because you saw his pictures in my drawer does not make him my crush." I lied.. He is hot, I admit and a guy who advertise for fashion companies... What do you expect Kelly? Am just a fan keeping his pictures and not for love sake. I added. "So please, no negative thought okay; I placed my two hands together as i stated." whatever, I will definitely know someday; you can hide as long as you want." She said before taking a bite of her sandwich. Oh thank goodness! I felt relieved, am not just ready for any questions and ans
~DAISY~Oh goodness! I turned back slightly if i could sight Kelly. But she was no where in sight. Is she peeing her bladder or what?? At that time, the three " C Boys" were already heading closer towards me.I began to walk slowly, taking one step at a time. My head bowed a little like a child who was just being scold by his mother. We were just an inch apart from each other, when the sweet fragrance hit me again. Geez! This boys smells so nice. And successfully, i passed them. Oh my! That was close.I have never been so close to the C boys. They always walk around the school premises with bodyguards. And don't allow other students near them. Believe when i say "They are full of pride".Though everyone was a rich kid, but they were given much honour in school. I was about to take the final turn, that leads straight to the class without any delay when a voice stopped me." Hey you! Stop there". The voice yelled. Oh G
Dave kept quiet for long and it made me wonder what was going on in that mind of his. "What do you think man?? Sammy asked again.. He was getting impatient.He was a real jerk and can hurt people without a single regret. Just then, Dave raised a finger and it made me more curious on what he mean by that. Wait? He does not talk when someone is around or what? Or has he become deaf and dumb? But i haven't heard a rumor which says " Dave Willston has finally become deaf and dumb". I quickly snapped out of my thought. Am i suppose to be thinking about being deaf and dumb right now? Come on Daisy! I need to get out of this mess before it becomes serious. Oh goodness! This is the time i need Bryan to fucking play his daddy's role.Oh! And damn you Kelly for leaving me all alone. Sammy moved closer to me, so close to my ears; to the extent that i could feel his hot breath on my neck. It made me so uncomfortable."You got lucky girl, he
~DAISY~I felt as if my breath will seize at that moment. I popped my eyes so wide as I aslo awaits Kelly's reply to Bryan. What will she say to him? I could feel my heart racing. Did something happen in school today? What's wrong? Anna asked with so much concern. "Uhm..is just Mr wills, he almost embarrassed me for coming late to his class." Kelly lied, though her facial expression was saying a different thing. She looked so pissed and one could tell Mr wills was not only the cause of her mood."The Mr wills that did not wrong." Oh..don't mind him, he is always like that. " Fat ass" Anna cursed and we both chuckled. Damn! Anna was good at insult, she has a bad mouth I guess.Bryan didn't say a word as he turned around to start the car, I turned slightly and gave Kelly a thank you stare. We drove home in silence, comfortable silence though,everyone was dealing with the mess inside their head.It didn't take long for us to be in f
I itched my nape and stared at Kelly. Her eyes were so fixed on me, like she could not wait to hear what i have to say. "Is nothing serious Kelly". I tried to play smart but she was not buying the whole idea." Are you gonna say something or not?" She asked me with a serious look. I release a breath i was holding, Kelly will never let go, until she make me voice out the truth. "Whatever you are thinking in your head is real, yes! I wrote that and am in love with Dave willston". I spoke and lower my head. I tried not to look at Kelly right in the eye. I felt so shy and nervous. Like what will she think of me huh? Will she see me as all those cheap girls crazy over Dave? I was expecting her to say something after i finished talking but she did not.She kept quiet, which only add to my curiosity. "I always knew you liked Dave, damn you Daisy for lying in the first place". She said She hit me slightly on the shou
I focused on her, as she cat walk towards us with her best friend "Rita" behind her.All our attention were on her. She was wearing a white shirt and a short jean skirt. She applied a lot of makeup on her face, the only good thing was that she was looking good.She moved closer to us, and stood right in front of Bryan. "Hey! She said with a smile that was revealing her teeth. Am throwing a party at my place today. I hope you would come". She said calmly." Rita! She called and stretched forth her hand to her. Rita immediately brought out the invitation card and gave it to her". She was already getting on my nerves. I feel like punching her...i wonder how her best friend tolerate all her nonsense. Besides rita is just like a slave to cindy. She does everything she want. Cindy!...everyone in Lowell high school knows cindy, she always go after the cute boys in the school and like to be noticed.I watched her as she gave the card to Bryan and
~DAISY~"You're staring too much". Kelly whispered in my ear, it was then i lowered my head.I don't know what has come over me. But i need to be careful. I don't want people assuming things." if you keep doing that, everyone will know you like Dave". Kelly muttered in a calm way."I know! Am sorry i act stupid". I replied her. I raised my head and looked at Dave direction one more time.Just then, our gaze met with george. I quickly took my eyes away and adjusted myself on my seat. I was no longer feeling comfortable so i begged Kelly for us to leave the canteen.We stood up and headed for class." why did you make us leave the canteen? break time is no over yet". She stated with a pout."I know, but it will soon be over, since we are done eating; i think is best if we just stay inside the class". I replied.She rolled her eyes.. Whatever Daisy! She finally spoke.Break time was over...most of the student were
~DAISY~I stood near the wardrobe while contemplating on what to wear, my hands on my waist as I bit my bottom lip. “Still thinking, huh?” Kelly voiced out behind me and I flinched.“Oh Christ!” I whispered and placed my hand on my chest. “I have warned you, Kelly. Stop doing that.” I muttered and fake a frown.A smirk displayed on her face as she sat on the bed and stared at me. I pouted and moved closer to her.“Why the sour face? You want to avoid seeing his parents?” Kelly asked me as she scanned my face for an answer.“No that, I really want to meet his parents. It will be an honor, you know, but…”“What is it then, you just said you would like to meet his parents.” Kelly voiced out anxiously and I sighed.“I don't know if they will like me, I have spent hours thinking of what to say and what to wear. Look at me!” I said and point my hand at the towel tied around my chest. “Stop the negativity, girl. Of course, they will like you. Don't you know you're a lot of vibe? You are cal
*DAISY*We stayed outside until the day was just at it dusk, and I knew it was time I head home before my mom ask the police to place my picture and Dave's own all over the net with a caption. 'Kidnapped' my mom was very capable of doing that.“What's your favorite flavor?” Dave asked me as we head back home in his car. He turned and spare me a stare while waiting for my response.“Huh! Do you mean ice cream?” I questioned and he nods his head. “Vanilla,” I replied and licked my bottom lip.“Stop doing that, it makes me want to let go of the steering wheel and lock my lips with yours.” Dave said, and I gasped before releasing a light chuckle. Jeez! My face was already red due to the way I was blushing.I leaned in and peck him on the cheek. “That's cheating Daisy,” he whispered with a pout, and I resist the urge to roll my eyes.“That's enough for you, I want to save the kiss for tomorrow.” I stated and adjusted myself on the seat. He pouted, but I ignored him completely.“I thought y
~DAISY~I felt a different feeling as we intertwined our hands. Is this what people call destiny?He smiled as me as he opened the front door for me to hopped in."Where are we going?" I asked a little excited. "Somewhere far away from this noise." He said. I sat in the front seat and inserted the seatbelt on. He did the same thing before igniting the engine and driving us out of that premises. We drove for almost twenty minute, Dave kept staring at me and I was praying we won't die on the road because he was not concentrating. I lean closer to him and peck him at the side of his lips. "That's not fair!" I want a real kiss " he said like a baby."You're driving Dave..do you want us to run into a tree?" I asked He smiled and then I noticed we were driving into a big compound. Dave horned twice before the gate was opened. It was late but I could see how magnificent the building was. "He drove into the garage and parked his car. I let my mouth drop open when I noticed four other exp
After school we went back home. I have never been this excited to go to a party like today. It was a different feeling unlike the last time. I shook my head as I remembered the last Lowell party. I was naive as fuck! But no one can bullly me now..I know that for sure. "I want to go too!" Mel voiced out behind me as I tried to rummage through my wardrobe for an outfit. "Fine..then hurry up we don't have much time." I replied as my whole concentration was on the gown I held in my hand. It was a plain blue dress with a slit at the front and handless. Perfect! "What do you think?" I asked Mel and winked at her."Is beautiful daisy! Someone is going to fall deeply today." She added in a whisper but I heard her. I chuckled and kept the gown on the bed. I moved into the bathroom for a quick shower.Just then I heard Kelly's voice in the room, she was asking of my whereabout. It surprised me that Kelly was able to walk now, though she leap a little when walking. I was so excited she was
~DAISY~I cleared my throat a little. I was already finding it awkward to ask for Dave's number from Bryan but I had no choice."Well! Do you have Dave's phone number?" I asked without delayHe stared at me then smirked..."I see! Someone is missing Dave " he teased.Oh my God! Do you have the number or not?" I asked him again while rolling my eyes."I do! But what's the price if am to give you his number ?" He questioned"Seriously Bryan! Can't you do a little charity work?" You definitely does not look like an orphan to me." He replied with full sarcasmI groaned and stared at him. "Okay! What do you want? Gosh! I hate it when you have the upper hand." I whispered and he smirked triumphantly."Just then I heard Mel's voice yelling my name. She was looking for me because I left the room without stating where I was going." Am right here!" I replied backI turned and faced Bryan. Just a little favour for Chri
~MELVINA~We stayed all day at the hospital, and I must say Kelly was recovering so fast.Daisy was sleeping on the chair in the room. She looks like a lost baby cat as she crossed her arms.I chuckled at my own thought. Just then, Kelly coughed and I dragged the water on the table close by and gave her to drink some of it. She did and muttered a thank you."Do you want anything?" I asked her with concern and she shook her head.Then I spoke.."am sorry if I made the situation worst between you and Daisy okay? I didn't mean to make you feel alone or left out. " I was still talking when she placed her hand on mine."Hey you did nothing wrong; am glad she got someone like you." She said and released a light smile. I nodded and rubbed the back of her palm.We talked about little things like where I was born, any boyfriend and more. I must admit Kelly is fun to be with and a little naughty.Just then, sleeping
~DAISY~"Can I go in, I want to see my daughter." She stated with a shaking body and tried going towards the door but the nurse standing behind the doctor stopped her."I will suggest you let her rest for now; when she wakes up, I will definitely call your attention. " the nurse stated politely.. Ma'am Bella moved over to the bench as she sat quietly"Doc! I called slowly..you were saying something about Kelly." I reminded him."Oh yeah! You see; he continued and ruffled his hair. Kelly got injured on her legs and am afraid she won't be able to walk for a month." He saidHuh? Is it that badly damaged? " I asked fearfully, now everyone's attention was on the two of us."No..if she stick to the instructions I will be giving to her, she can be able to walk well in the next two weeks." The doc voiced out.Oh my poor baby! Ma'am Bella cried as mom moved over to her on the bench and hugged her. I saw mom whispering w
~DAISY~" hey! hey!" The gateman held my hand firmly and dragged me closer to him. He held my shoulder and made me face him."You want your sister to survive huh? He asked and I nodded with tears.Then we have to rush her to the hospital immediately, now is not the best time to blame anyone." He addedThe unknown man rushed into his car as we followed him behind. The gateman sat in the front seat while I sat with Kelly whose head was on my lap.The more I looked at her; the more angry I get at myself. My heart was shattering.I will never forgive myself if anything happens to her. Tears spilled from my eyes as they drop on her face. I wiped them off and Prayed silently in my heart.Be strong for me please! I know you are a fighter Kelly! I know! I whisperedThe man drove fast and in no time we arrived at the near by hospital."Is an emergency!" I yelled loudly and the nurses rushed to us with
~MELVINA~It was my first time visiting California and the Reid's family are making it a memory for me. They are so nice and kept treating me like an angel.I stood outside wearing a sweater, as I enjoy the evening breeze. I won't lie; I feel so much pity for Kelly, is like am making the situation worst for her. Because ever since I arrived I have been trying to make daisy forgive her but she still acting stubborn. She does not pay a single attention to her.We make mistakes, and I know Kelly knew what she did was wrong already."Hey! Why are you out here alone?" I heard a masculine voice asked as he jolt me out of my thought.I turned around a little and discovered Bryan standing close to me. Is it just me or he has been trying to create conversation ever since I came. "Hey! I replied calmly""Actually I was with Daisy but ma'am Bella called for her." I added and faced a different direction. He sighed."You seems cool
