1 1. New Life

"Why do I have to do this I don't want to have a new family mom can't I just stay with Auntie Catrina." I said with boredom and dissatisfaction of having to live with a new life that I never asked for. "No you can't sapphire we finally have a new fresh beginning just because you don't want to live with your soon to be father and stepbrother doesn't mean you can go live with your auntie." just hearing the thought of having a new life with my supposed to be "father and stepbrother" makes me sick to my stomach. "Now come on we have to go now so we can meet them." as we got a cab to meet them I was thinking of dad before he left us how everything was okay and how me, mom, and dad would be happy forever I guess life didn't want that for me. The whole ride was silent until we arrived at a very beautiful and luxurious house at first I couldn't believe that this was my new home that I thought we took the wrong turn. I mean come on if you were me you wouldn't believe it either but as soon as the door opened all I saw was my mom kissing my soon to be future dad. "Excuse me if y'all want to be all lovey dovey go somewhere else private." I said in annoyance while I entered the luxurious house. "I'm sorry you must be sapphire your mom has told me a lot about you it's so nice to see you my name is Richard." the man said while having his hand out for me to shake it and instead of that I just simply asked "So I here I have a stepbrother I don't see him anywhere or is he doing something better than being here because if he is I would do the same thing." I said sarcastically but then what I got in return was "Actually he is with his friends he will come back tomorrow or later at night but would you like to see your room sapphire." Richard said as if what I said about not wanting to be here was nothing but a joke. "Yeah sure I'm tired anyway so I would love to see my room." I said with a smile as soon as he told me the direction of my room I immediately went to unpacking my things. After I was done I was reading a book until I checked the time and it was 11:35pm it didn't bother me I was used to sleeping late. I was starting to get hungry so I opened my door from my room and went downstairs to the kitchen but what I saw next made me want to puke. I was about to speak until a pair of hands covered my mouth and whispered to me to be quiet "Shush you don't want them thinking you were watching them come with me." I obediently listened to him and by my surprise I was back in my room with the boy that helped me not get in trouble. "Who are you?" I asked as if nothing happened downstairs. "My name is Alex and you must be my new stepsister I have to admit if you weren't my stepsister I would date you but unfortunately I can't what a bummer." he said as if it was casual to say it but I can't deny what he said if he wasn't my stepbrother I would totally date him but unfortunately he is my stepbrother. He asked me a question that got me out of my thoughts "What were you doing down there?" I answered his question and said "I was getting hungry so I went downstairs to get a late night snack but I didn't expect to see my mom getting f*cked up by my step dad." "Oh well me neither but it's getting late you should go to sleep goodnight baby sister." he said with a wink all I could do was be in shock of what he said and with that I went to sleep but it was hard because of what happened today and the noise from downstairs." What sapphire didn't know was that her life was about to get changed in a way that she would never imagined.
