"So this is why you walked away from me huh?" Xander spoke out of nowhere."Jesus…" Rachel felt so drained already just hearing his voice. She has dealt with more than enough of Xander for a day, she actually felt more weighed down merely by his presence and voice, she needed him to just stay away from her once and for all."What..""Can't talk??""Cat got your tongue?"God, he must have been waiting so long to use this line on me."Common speak up Araceli," Xander's voice grew louder, he knew he was just being silly and petty but he couldn't help it, he needed something against her too."Xander, shut the fuck up for heaven and earth sake!" Rachel screamed, sure that she also caught the attention of passersby for the second time today."How petty, arrogant and stupid can you be!""You literally cheated on me and I have it on video," Rachel lost control."You probably having something with my supposed to be best friend,""Just go home, okay? You fucked up and you lost, let it be," Rach
"I can't stand your attention seeking ass Emily,""Neither can I Ethan, but I still put up with your ass," Emily screamed back."Guys!" Yandel yelled."Oh my God, Ethan get your ass here, Araceli is here!""You're kidding right?" Ethan screamed from what seemed like the back of the house."Come see for yourself," Emily said smiling, walking towards Rachel. She was wearing some crop hoodie even though it was sunny outside with bum shorts and some white crocs.Nathan ran from the back and appeared through the semi halo of garden flowers, he still had brown shorts on, only this time he was shirtless with his hair sticking to his forehead. He caught up to his sister who was walking slowly towards Rachel like a predator eyeing her meal.Now she understood why Yandel asked her if she was ready, she already felt a little threatened by their curious looks and observant stares. She looked at Yandel but he just chuckled and raised his hands up like he had no hands in it, he was literally offeri
"So, you plan to wine me and dine on me?" Rachel said looking innocent."For fuck sake…""What" Rachel said laughing, grabbing the wine glasses that he was giving her, but she was distracted by the veins popping on his hands, it turned her own. She could imagine him grabbing her and caging her on the wall while rubbing all over her, through her dazed thought someone waved and snapped their fingers in front of her breaking her away from the trance."Did you necessarily have to do that," Rachel said, faking annoyance."So I was supposed to leave you here thinking about what exactly," Yandel said, folding his arms."None of your business," Rachel replied walking out of the kitchen holding the glasses."Does it involve my sexy ass?" Yandel asked, popping up beside her."Yes it does," Rachel spoke blandly."Really?!" Yandel exclaimed, shocked."No!""Of the billion things I could be thinking of on the whole planet, what on earth made you think you were part of it?" Rachel asked."You're st
"I guess we both have to drink up," Rachel said.As if that wasn't awkward enough, the background song started playing I love you by billie eilish, her cheeks reddened at how cliche the timing was, she avoided looking at Yandel who just sat beside on the couch staring straight ahead."You.""I," they both said at the same time as their faces went from worry to a wide smile."I guess this is where we blame the wine and the song for the moment," Yandel said, licking his lip chuckling, he rose his head to finally stare her in her beautiful brown eyes that until recently started holding alot of fire in them, he felt like a moth in its youth strongly attracted the the ever burning flame that only seemed to blaze more."Wow…" Rachel said, it was definitely one of those cliche moments, she could feel her heart starting a gentle race as the cause of the race was sipping in her soul and he kept staring at her giving her the most floaty feeling she has ever felt in her life."Keep an open mind,
"Mom, Dad, I think Xander has been cheating on me and I have the video to prove it," Rachel deadpanned, staring both of them in the eye.She couldn't even understand or interpret their emotion, her Dad looked confused while Mom looked paused, slowly and steadily she saw rage well up in her father while her mom was still paused, opening her mouth and closing back, it seemed she was having a harder time processing the whole information, what she didn't expect was to see coming was the devastating rage Mr. Garcia was going to display."Who the fuck those the Bastardo think he is!" Mr. Garcia stood up in full rage."Il mio amore, calmati," Mrs. Garcia stood up to put a hand on his chest."No!""I must call the Millers now, this is an insult not just to my daughter, but a full insult to me and you Amore," Mr. Garcia raged."Can you just calm down, we haven't even seen the video yet," Mrs. Garcia said taking Rachel aback, she Mrs Garcia like Xander but she didn't know, it was to the extent
"Are you seriously taking his side right now?""I mean tell me, Is the dick that good?" Rachel deadpanned as anger and hate started to creep over her entire being like tendrils from a pumpkin fruit, she could get that Alice was heartless and an excuse for humanity but right now, she couldn't deal anymore, she had reached the peak for her tolerance to bull crap for a day."What the hell Araceli!" Alice yelled over the phone, while inside her heart was going out of it's regular beat, she definitely was sure now if she wasn't sure before that Araceli was unto both of them, I mean anyone who has much gut to spew such acclaims has definitely taken their time to dig up dirty on her."You know what, I can't talk to you when you are like this," Alice said."When I'm like what?""Saying the truth?" Rachel replied."Goodnight Araceli," Alice said, ending the call. She definitely needed a new plan, something that would eliminate Araceli quickly, before all of this blew up in her face."Yeah, I—"
"Hey," A familiar feminine light voice called upon her, something about the airy texture and the melody in which she spoke, brought her chills, the good kind of chills.Her surroundings were a combination of everything and nothing, she couldn't make out anything except the lamp post and side street chair she was sitting on."Who's out there?" Rachel called out into the nothingness around her, her voice bounced back to her like she was in a room of infinite possibilities."Rachel," The angelic voice called out to her only this time she appeared, that's when it all clicked, the airy voice, the melody, the breathiness of the voice, it was Araceli."Fuck!" Rachel cried out in awe but still remained where she was no matter how hard she tried to stand up."For some fucked up reason I can't stand up to hug you," Rachel whined as tears streamed down her face, she wiped them away quickly, still looking at Araceli like she was a burning bush and she was not worthy of her presence."It's oka
"To the surprise of Xander's life, he wasn't the female figure by the door of their mansion. She had beautiful brown hair and looked strikingly familiar, yet cheek."Mom.." Xander said in surprise. She was supposed to be at a book club meeting at the Daisy women club. Technically a snobbish club for millionaire wives."Araceli?!""In the flesh," Rachel replied, smiling at him mischievously."You won't believe it Christopher, I was just coming from my book club when I saw her ringing the bell," Mrs. Miller said excitedly."I'm so excited to be here Ma'am, It's been months but it feels like ages," Rachel squealed giving her a tight hug, she also dampened her accent a little southern to match his mother's, just so she could win her heart all over, just like Araceli did before her."Well?" Mrs. Miller hinted to him pointing at Araceli in the least subtle way possible but Rachel planned up playing dumb, winning Mrs Miller's heart and torturing Xander."What mom?!" Xander cried, exasperated
"Araceli..""Yandel…Cole…""Sorry for being late your honor.." Araceli said with a confident smirk. All three of them walked in and it felt good, everyone had their jaws hanging down and eyes bulging out. Mrs Garcia was already on her feet about to run to hug her daughter while Amy stood there in tears. Ricky, Ben and Mariah were all on the same row, jaws hanging down in surprise. Emily and Nathan were totally unmoved instead, smiling proudly at their brother in a well tailored suit with Araceli by his side and Cole in jeans and black T like he always wore."And sorry for not being late as you guys thought I was.." Yandel said smiling at the crowd but especially at the man who was in a gray tailored suit and his hair was drawn back and held together by gel sitting beside Alice and Xander. The whole Miller family had a missed reaction but one of them in particular had his eye out of his socket more than the rest."Order court!! I will not condone such an insolent act in my court!!" He
Rachel"The Millers!!!" I yelled but paused again."Wait, they actually aren't the only ones you know…they are actually more of them, the Preston's, even the Azariah and I know all of the Xander's investments and none if it has nothing to do with the news outlets. I have gone through his papers before, his original documents that he had locked in a safe, that's how I knew he wasn't that smart to pull off all that happened," I told him my face dropping. What could Mister Douglas Miller, Alexander's father possibly want from us, that he would need me dead. Whoever this person was, has a good reason to kill me or want me dead but he also didn't make any sense.As for my father, not even I knew of the several women he has gone around with that my mother was very much aware of, but no one knew exactly why he did it. Sleeping with a married man's wife. So Mr Miller could have his reason for doing it, each of the Miller were suspects now and even Alice."Look, go freshen up okay, clean yours
Rachel"Hmm, you seem to like this place a lot huh.. Maybe you could join me, we would make a fun pair…" A familiar voice joked beside me. The familiarity of the voice was enough to spread chills all over my body, at the same time, soothe the burning feeling at the back of my head. It felt like my eyes were open yet closed, I could see her but I couldn't see anything else, just her."Araceli…" I called her name lightly before I felt my chest burn."Am I dead this time, did i make it this time around??" I asked her, looking at her smile so pretty at me, it was almost like staring at my reflection but the prototype. Even by mere looking at her I could see how much different she looked from me, she looked sharper while I was much more blunt on the edges "Isn't that a little narcissistic?? Staring and admiring me when I'm you.." She teased as I rolled my eyes in reflex."There's no way I'm you. I asked before who I was here and you never gave me an answer but now I see the answer clear a
"This is taking too long, we need to check up on him. I mean how long is it gonna take for the police and back up to get here?? Acting like we have the who goddamn day doing nothing but sitting down looking pretty and empty as hell," She looked at her mom hoping her whinig was going to get to her she was going to try and tell her to go in there and ask what's going on."You need to take a chill pill okay, for all we know, he got bigger fish to fry and you going there will just be getting in his way and taking up all his planned tattics and throwing them away. So no, Araceli, you are going to seat your impatient self down and wait till he is back," She continued typing and face timing on Ace's laptop since it was the only laptop available. For the past thirty minutes, she had been trying her best to just sit calm and enjoy the silence and sound of keyboard clicking but it was getting suffocating.It was already passed twenty five minutes and he wasn't back yet and he was yet to contact
Xander"Watch where you are going bro!! F!ck" My shirt had a little of starbuck strawberry shit on me and I knew with in seconds, I was going to start feeling so sticker and uncomfortable.I spilled several curses as I walked from my private gym to Where I was suppose to meet Alice. I don't know why of all places she couldn't just choose some where we could both be comfortable with a little less human interact."Hey, hey...Mr Miller right?" The man who ran into me came back and I held myself from groaning out loud. What the fuck does he want for fuck sake. I'm just trying to get to my meet up hoping I get lucky with her today because she has been acting extra weird ever since Saturday evening we had a fall out. She barely replied my text and after I sent a whole bunch of texts, she sends a cool or fine. It became increasingly over bearing so I decided to come to the gym and put some of my frustration into lifting some irons and honestly, it actually does work.Out of like ten, I was
They were only half way through watching lilo and stitch which Ben has probably watched for the twentieth time in the past four months. He still had the fire to watch it again, which was honestly amazing. Lilo and Stitch was a classic but Ricky was already tired of seeing it and was beginning to get really pissed off at Stitch's voice. It sounded like a really REALLY bad recording from the past, even though it was used as an alien voice, it was still really annoying to listen to.He decided to adjust his position in Ben's warm arms but found out that he had already slept off, and he was the one who changed the channel. Ricky tried to stand up to put the TV off and drink some water but he coiled his arms around him tighter and turned over so they weren't facing the light of the TV. Ricky stretched for the remote and turned off the TV so that they could sleep well.Just a few minutes after he made this life changing important decision as he himself was feeling really exhausted from the
"It's why I'm out here. I came to take him back then I realized that he didn't know me and you guys were not in the hanger so I headed back to the Car to see if anyone approached it. Don't worry about my wound, the cook there helped me clean up my wounds and stopped the blood loss and took out the mic they pull under my skin," He explained further as he stretched his arm. He looked behind me and Mrs Garcia and saw Ace holding a taser in his direction."F*ck...the whole family is actually like this.." He shook his head then decided to crank his neck making a cracking sound into the night."Do you even know how to use a taser?" He asked Ace, who looked at him cockingly."I have watched enough videos and I think lama is still passed out back at home, i hope they find a way to wake her up," He said proudly and I smiled till may brain processed the information that he just spewed and I realized that this boy electrocuted the cat in our household, which made sense why I didn't see the cling
I pressed the gun in his direction and he screamed...literally. I looked at him as his face turned to the palest form od white after pulling such a stunt on him. A click sound echoed in the night night showing that the shell was empty making him breath heavily."That's for keeping us twenty two minutes late," I smirked at him before walking past him making sure my elbow brushed his and walked up to the car signaling one of the guards to help take our luggages from the big SUV that was meant for the guards to drive. She wanted a more elaborate way of moving our things but I managed to convince her that we needed to move secretively without being noticed."That gave me a f*cking scare. What the hell was that about anyways, between you and your mom??" He picked a brown channel travel bag that was one of the monthly calendar gifts to our family."I don't know, years of vex, the fact that she ruined me of all the friends i made here in months, made them hate me and after that, she had the
Rachel"Do you have your bags and passports??" Mrs Garcia asked, holding my hands as we sat at the back seat of her favorite vintage 1965 which she only used for special occasions like when she was invited to Washington to make a speech in a forum that had some of the world's most b important people."Mum...the vintage," I stared at the Mustang and she smiled proudly at it."If not That I would be tagged as a loco puta. I would have named her my third child, she's so beautiful, isn't she??" She said with a dreamy look in her eyes as she looked at the car shining in its glory from the light Cole's private hanger had. The place was empty and we had guards to extra survey the area before we alighted.The place was huge as hell, the tarmacs to the runway lighting, it looked like a full mini airport and it was beautiful and there also happened to be a private restaurant just behind the huge garage that housed the plane. The name was something I didn't bother to read as the food called my
