Sophia's Pov:
As soon as she left, I started hearing voices outside the room - like she was talking with someone or something.
Shortly, the door opened and her son walked in, looking pretty angry.
What's wrong with her?
Oh! Him.
Him, right?
"Hey, you! Take off my shirt" he said and I arched my brows in surprise.
Oh! The shirt is his, right?
But....does he want me to go naked in front of him?
Immediately, his mum walked in.
"Hey! Donald. Come on, son. What's wrong with you? Let's talk outside" she said calmly and held his hand, but he still looked pretty angry.
Why's he acting this way?
"Of all the clothes in the house, mum, does it have to be my shirt? One of my favorites??" He queried.
"Um...I'm really sorry....son. Don't worry, I'll take off the shirt" I said and started looking for a way to take it off my body.
I didn't even know how
Sophia's Pov;What's he doing here?I stared at him, surprised."You" he muttered and found his way pass the door and I made path for him."Who're you huh? What do you want here?" He asked."I've....I've explained everything to your mum already" I replied."Well, I'm not my mom and need my own explanation"Huh??"I'm sorry, but.... it's a long story and I don't think I can explain it now to you""What?" He scoffed and folded his hands."Anyway, listen to me and listen pretty good. If I get to know you're lying to me and my mum; if I get to know you're actually a spy, trust me, you'd regret it. So, now you still have the chance, I'd suggest you leave. Just leave".I stared at him silently as he spoke with so much anger. Why's he mad at me?There's no way I'm leaving. I mean, I can't. Where would I go, huh?He scoffed again and left.** &nb
Sophia's Pov:The woman came running into the room immediately."Oh my God!!" She exclaimed and placed her hand on her chest.Her eyes were fixed to the strange mirror on the floor which was already broken."What the hell did you do? What happened to the television?" She asked in an alarming tone.Tele what? What did she just call it?"Oh! Sophia...What happened?" She groused.At that moment, the son stepped in and his eyes widened in shock as well."I....I saw people moving in them. It was....it was scary" I stuttered to the woman.Why do I feel like....I did something wrong?"Hold on; she broke the television on purpose?" The son asked and I took my gaze to the floor immediately.Why do they keep calling it television? Or is that what it is over here?Do they call their mirrors televisions?"Seriously mum, Is this the kind of attitude you wanna tolerate here? I'm...."
Sophia's Pov:I tried as much as possible not to make any sound as I laid in the moving house.Oh; the car."So... Your mother's gonna be adopting the strange lady?" I heard his friend ask."Yeah...and that's so yuck? I seriously don't get what's wrong with mum. Did you see that lady? She's an alien, dude. She actually broke the television, claiming she saw people moving in them. What the heck???" The son replied, making his friend laugh.So, they were talking about me?"But seriously, I think she's damn beautiful" his friend said and I felt my cheeks become hot."Who's beautiful? With that long dirty hair of hers? She can't even....""Oh! Cut it out, Donald. She's pretty and you know it. You're just being grumpy"."Yeah...whatever. But you know me, James. I hate it when I'm stuck with a particular lady. I'm a playboy and I hate.....""Yeah...Whatever. Tell that to your mum".
Donald's Pov:I excused myself from the party and reached for my phone so I could call Caroline. I just wanted to be sure she was fine.I walked to a more quiet place before placing the call and after a few beeps, she picked up."Hello?" She called on the phone, like she didn't know i was the one calling or something."Caroline?" I also called."Hey; what's up?""I'm....I'm fine" she replied, sounding a little cold."Um...where are you?" I asked."At home"."Oh! Why didn't you come for Hannah's party?"There was a brief silence."I just....I'm...I'm tired and having a little head ache"."Oh! Is it that serious?""No; no. Not really. I'll be fine, please. Don't worry about it"."Okay then. You know....its so unlike you to miss parties. So,I was just wondering if there was a problem"."No, not at all. I'm fine. Um....don't worry about it. I'll come over in the
Sophia's Pov:I rushed back to the fence I'd jumped out from.Oh! Sophia; I just pray I find it.On the way, I kept looking at the floor, but there was no sign of it until I'd gotten to the fence.I searched and searched around, but still couldn't find it. It wasn't on the floor.Good saviors! Where could it be?Luckily, I found a lady close by. She was just standing and staring at me and I went ahead to meet her."Um....hi. Did you...any chance, see something on the floor?" I asked and she gave me an uncanny stare."Wh....What's that?" She arched her brows and asked and I looked around."Its.....its actually..."Oh! Sophia...I shouldn't be telling anyone about this."It's tied to a rope. Did you see it?" I asked her and she shrugged."I didn't. I'm not a thief" she replied and walked away.Oh! Goodness. What have I done?Maybe it had fallen close to t
Sophia's Pov:I sat on the floor, crying profusely as the James guy left to do what I didn't know.I'd searched and searched for the treasure, but to no avail.And finally, I ended up on the floor, crying my eyes out.How could I be so careless? How could I misplace the treasure?? What do I do now?What if it has fallen into the wrong hands? The most valuable treasure in Marazona. The key to my revenge against the Queen.How could I be so careless, huh?I continued crying on the floor and after a while, he showed up - both of them.I lifted my head to look at them and another fear crowded me.They've seen my face already and known I followed them.What have I done?If I'd known, I'd have stayed back at home. I just wanted to feed my eyes."What're you doing here??" Donald asked with an alarmed look and I sniffed and stood up."I....I..." I paused and sniffed again."
Sophia's Pov:I opened the door and found him in the room, but he shrieked on seeing me."What're you.....??" He flinched and turned around, backing me.I noticed he was losing something from his waist, but he quickly held it back."Hey; what the hell do you think you're doing? What're you doing in my room? And don't you knock??" He snapped as he looked at me.Huh? What is knock?"I'm talking to you,,alien. How dare you just barge into my room like that??" He asked angrily.Okay....I think he's just confusing me the more. Maybe I should just say what I have to say and leave."I...I actually came here to apologize for what happened earlier", I began. It seemed you were really angry with me for making you leave your friends. I...I just wanted to apologize".He stared at me speechlessly for a while and scoffed."Seriously?" He said."Is that the reason you're here?"I no
Sophia Pov:Did she just mention school??I'll be going to school??For real?"What now, mum? What new development is this? What' school are you talking about??" The son asked ridiculously, like he was really angry."I know what I'm doing, Donald. Okay?" The woman rolled her eyes and looked at me."Sophia, where you come from, do you have a school over there where you were taught how to read and write?" She asked."Um....actually, yes. We had a mini school where we're taught the 26 alphabets, how to write on leafs with inks, and how to read as well. I have a wide knowledge" I replied."So..you can read??" The woman asked and I nodded."Okay. Can you....read this out?" She brought out a....what is this?EwwShe placed it in front of me and although, the object looked really strange, I just focused on the letters there."The....Full....meaning....of geography" I read out and
Caroline's pov"Hello." A voice came up from the other side of the phone."Yeah?" I asked with a slight frown on my face even if I know that he wouldn't see me.I don't know the person that's calling because I don't have the number stored in my phone."Caroline, it's me Chris." The voice said and I had to gasped lowly.Oh my!"Oh Chris, pardon my manners. I didn't know you were the one." I smiled and brushed my hair with my fingers."That's not a problem. I didn't expect you to know I'm the calling immediately." He laughed and geez, his voice sounded so cool and sweet."Okay. So, Caroline I know we don't know each other but I was wondering if you'd like to go out with me - like a date where we'd get to know each other better." He said and I could tell he was nervous because of the way he sounded.I pursed my lips and contemplated for a few seconds. I si
Chloe's povI grinned as I arranged Donald's bed. I removed his previous bedsheet even if it wasn't dirty and replaced it with a clean one.I hummed softly to nothing and moved to his shoe rack.I don't know, but I feel so happy today. Or maybe I do know why I'm happy.Maybe it's because James and I have become more closer and Donald isn't rude to me anymore.I Know for the fact that he doesn't like me but I'm glad he doesn't glare at me with a scowl on his face.James has been super nice to me and he's really different from his friend. While Donald is arrogant and rude, James is nice and always wear a sweet smile on his face.Sophia isn't been hard on me like before. And I'm glad.*"So, you wanted to talk to me." Sophia said and arched her brows at me.I cleared my throat repeatedly and stared at her."Yeah. I just wanted to tell you that I already f
Caroline's povI got ready for school the next day and I was so surprised and speechless to see mum setting the dinning table.She had an apron on and it looked like she had been cooking."Hey Caroline, come have breakfast." She beamed and gestured for me to seat. I stared curiously at her as she set the table and uncovered the food and the sweet smell wafted through my nose.Oh my!Did mum make this?"C'mon Caroline, why are you still standing? Hurry up and seat. Have breakfast so you won't be late for school." She smiled and walked closer to me. She tucked in a loose strand of my hair behind my ear and tung on my arm.She brought out a chair and made me seat on it. "I made you hot chocolate tea, just the way you like it." She smiled and placed my cutleries beside my plate of food.I just sat, watching her do everything.What happened? I can't even rem
Caroline's povI waited patiently for mum to come home so we'll both talk about staying in the house.The door opened and mum walked in. I sighed in relief and stood up to meet her."Welcome mum." I smiled and took her bag from her. She just smiled and nodded her head."You've been waiting for me?" She asked as we made our way to the stairs. "Yes mum." I shrugged.We got to her room and entered."So mum, I want to have a discussion with you." I twitched my lips and sat on her bed while she sat on her dressing table, taking off her jeweleries."Okay? You can go on." She nodded her head and turned to glance at me."So mom, about us leaving, are we still gonna leave? You know, dad already told them to leave and they wouldn't stay here with us and they agreed. So, are we still leaving?" I asked and chewed on my bottom lip."You see Carol, I really want us to leav
Caroline's pov"Dad, this is f*cking bullshits! You have a daughter aside me? C'mon dad, if this is a joke then please stop it because I'm not finding this funny." I huffed ridiculously and ruffled my hair.What the f*ck!How can that lowlife Becca be my sister?Something I've never dreamt off.What sort of dream is this?"It's the truth Caroline." Dad said calmly and held my shoulders and stared sadly at me. "I'm a big fool, yes I know. I made a mistake, I know. But please Caroline, don't be mad at me for too long. You can be mad at me but not for too long. Your mom, she's threatened to leave the house with you. Please Caroline, I can't do without the both of you in my life, please don't leave me." Dad said sadly and I could tell he was fighting the urge not to cry.I felt so pity for him and his countenance showed he's been sincere. I know dad and I know he's feeling sad and gui
Caroline's povI got to school the next day and I didn't bother to say hi to Donald, just sat on my seat quietly.Mum had called at my aunt's place telling me that there's an emergency at home and I should come home immediately we close from school.She sounded so worried and it even made me worried. I couldn't even tell why she sounded that way but I know it's really an emergency for her to speak that way.I tried my best not to think much about it and focus in class, hopefully when I get home, I'll get answers.* Sophia's povDonald's mum had been happy and I didn't understand what she meant by love.She promised to answer my question by enlightening me on my feelings. She'd told me that she'll take me out and make me learn more about my feelings.I had agreed and I was happy because finally, I'll get answers and know exactly what I feel
Donald's pov"Sophia!" I screamed and ran to hug her.She didn't hug me back, she just stood and I could tell she was confused or rather my action was unbelievable to her.I released her from the hug and stared at her face, "you made me worry almost to death."She just rolled her eyes and walked away from the door, walking further into the house."Sophia?" I called and held her left arm and made her turn to look at me."I need to sleep, okay? It's late already." She sighed and yanked her hands away from my grip.I watched as she started towards the stairs.My jaw dropped and I felt bad. It was as if my heart was pierced with a knife.I lowered myself on the nearest couch and sighed sadly.After worrying myself almost to death and staying awake waiting for her, this is what I get?* Kenny's p
Becca's pov"You have to leave now Clarissa, you've outstayed your welcome already." Dad grumbled angrily as he matched up to mum and I in the sitting room where we were watching TV.Mum snorted and glared at dad."Really now Jerry? Is this what you're supposed to tell your child and the mother? A child you didn't know about? Is this how you're gonna treat us?" Mum snarled angrily and stood up from the sofa."That's not what I meant Clarissa. My wife and I are gonna have a huge misunderstanding and I don't want her coming back from wherever she went to meeting you here. I'm glad my daughter, Caroline would be spending the night at her aunt's place. What would I have told her? Please Clarissa, you have to leave and I promise, I'll come see you and we'll talk this out." Dad begged, rubbing his palms together."There's nothing to talk about Jerry, for your information, we are staying here a
James' pov"So tell me dude, when did you have a pretty maid as that one?" I asked with a knowing smile.He creased his eyebrows and stared confusingly at me."Who? You know I don't really give a damn about the maids in the house.""The one that had hurriedly left your room in tears." I supplied with a smirk."Oh! Chloe? Mom recently employed her to tend to Sophia and I." He shrugged."Wow! Dude, she's pretty and curvy. I'm sure she's gonna taste good." I made a moan sound while Donald hit me on my arm."Geez James, you don't even know her and you're already thinking of f*cking her?" He asked flatly."Do we have to know someone before we f^ck them? The last time I checked, we f*ck random b*tches." I rolled my eyes and crossed my legs, darting my eyes around his room."Really now?" He grunted and eyed me.I chuckled lightly at his action and raised my hands up in a s
