CH.14:Just you wait

It was already,6:30 am.And I had woken up a bit early,because the fact that I am not in my own house anymore was a bit uncomfortable.Without realizing I was wide awake even before the sun rose,but my lazy ass chose to stay in bed until I decided to finally get up,change into my gym clothes and do some yoga for 15 minutes in my unnecessarily wide,big and long 'balcony'.

I have places to go,things to do,so I finally went to shower and get ready.It was 7 by the time I was done.

I am feeling quite good,after yesterday's drinks and a good sleep,therefore I would love to start my day with some good breakfast,so I just chose to wear my pajama shorts and crop hoodie.

I went downstairs and saw someone who can easily spoil my 'good' morning,but I tried not to let it get to me.I see Kyle sitting on the sofas near the kitchen.I took a deep breath and made my way as fast my feet could take me undetected,but to my dismay I was unfortunate.And devil seemed to have sensed my presence a mile away.

He slowly stood up from the sofa,and took few but small steps,when he was close and standing right in front of me I felt very small,even when I have a good height I was so short in front of him.His eyes looked at me as if looking at their prey.He took a step forward and I took a step back,a step forward a step back until I felt something hard and cold against my back.I had officially hit a dead end,when two strong arms on the either side of my head trapped me and face not and too close for my liking.I felt his warm breath on my face,deep but slow as if restraining himself from punching me any moment.

"....You,how dare-"I cut him off before he starts ramping like a crazy giant.

"If you are going to ask about why I left you...that is because you slept like a log,even when I shook you like a maniac you still didn't budge from your position.Given your bulky body,how was I suppose to pick you up in a princess style and take you back at the apartment?"I reasoned with him and mock him at the same time.

He took a deep breath and stared into my grey eyes with his deep blue ones...and I swear I held my breath for a second and before I got too lost in them,so I ducked under his arm.All my head was telling me was to 'retreat' and picked my pace towards the kitchen my mind kept on.'It's better to stay away from this guy'I thought,not that I am going to be seduced that easily by blue eye,deep seductive voice,sharp jawline,and his collar bone which I could see from his v-line body-fit shirt he wore.I mentally knocked my own head and reminded myself that I have to stay away from him.

I rummaged through the cupboards and put my earphones and play 'Senorita' by Shawn Mendes,it would be nice to have a light music in morning and who wouldn't love to listen to the beautiful duet.I glanced at the time on my phone which said 7:08 am,shoot I need to hurry up because of the long day I am going to have today(I guess).I have got all my ingredients,and my pan and stuff;no I was ready to make some chocolate pancakes,so I got right on it.Doing every step very smoothly and efficiently only making portion for one person,because he didn't tell me or comment about the pasta I made last time,so none for him also because of his idiocy.I paused to change my song and decided to put 'DNA' by BTS,as I was glad that I knew Korean and could sing along and dancing a bit.Oblivious to the cold stare on my back.I got my batter ready and turn on the stove,put the pan on with minimum heat,and waited a while for it to warm so I scrolled down my song list and found 'Beautiful' by Bazzi. Now that my batter was ready and the pan was warmed up already so I poured my batter in not so perfect circle but it wasn't that bad.

After like 20 minutes I had finally finished,I normally make four to five for myself but I think I had made some extra.And pondering on the idea if I should give some to him. I went out to the dining room and saw someone's eyes on 'my' food,following it all the way to my seat in front of him,where I pretended not to notice him and eat my 'lovely' chocolate pancake.And I was totally enjoying it,both:teasing him and eat leisurely.

While I was eating I got more text from my 'dear' sister,ah no step-sister.I think she has finally got to know.

I had been hatching this idea from a quite a while.

When I was back in London after my mum's death and Seirra decided to come to same school as me ,alot stared to happen I wasn't naive,I was just weak at the time,really weak.Mum's passing was a big and hard blow to me.I wasn't able to cope with the mix emotions I had been getting that time.I had to go see doctors about this,I didn't cry,I wasn't able to cry when we were cremating her...I was lost all of a sudden,I was looking at my dad with dead gaze that time,who was on his knees crying and I wasn't. I stood there motionless...saying goodbye to her was painful but I had been feeling numb because of it.

After so many consulting with the doctors,I was still the same.After few months I got to know that my dad and Sonia were getting married,even though it wasn't public I got to know from our butler at home,who told me how Sonia kept on going there to 'comfort' my dad.Slowly the things which belonged to my mum were being taken by Sonia without my dad's knowledge.I was finally woke a bit up.While in school I was so lost that I hadn't been paying attention to anyone,teachers understood that so did some of my close friends there,but whoever had come up to me to give me their well-wishes,I had been ignoring them unconsciously.Because I was like a walking zombie,my health detorriated at that time.

When I realized where I was or what was going,I saw Sonia also being there,acting all that loving and caring 'cousin' she was to me.That had made people around me start to like her,I was also starting to see through her now.When I had been ignoring the world,she had been very active starting with:hooking up with my boyfriend,few rumours about how I had cheated on him,which was a white lie,she my 'friends' with her.But what she didn't know was that I didn't care or pay any attention to anyone of them,she tried but she couldn't get my 'best friends' with her,she didn't knew that they were all like a family to me.They had been very patient to wait with and for me while I was tormenting myself,they waited and I eventually got to them.They supported me,helped me allot.Especially dealing with Seirra,low-key making her life miserable from my side,when I told them what this mother-daughter are trying to do or were doing.I was very angry,and all this was giving me hints on that this has to be linked with mum's so-called accident.I didn't think any of this was a coincident:dad and Sonia getting married,Serria being here which felt that she is keeping her eye on me,uncle working at the company 'shouldering' my dad's burden,and what not...

Mark was also my high school mate,so I had asked his help with the investigation because when my brother tried he reached a dead end.And so did we but not entirely,uncle,Sonia and Seirra were all at my house at the time of the accident which is a coincidence or what,I found it suspicous,and I was right.Mark and I had found some leads on how Sonia and Uncle had been in contact with some gang .Which was enough to verify my doubts.But there wasn't enough evidence to it.

I thought to let it be for the moment and live a low-key life in front of Seirra,doing my modelling,buying a car,an apartment of my own,and secretly investing in some good companies.Seirra had got to know about me being a model,for me it was like a part-time job,but when I saw her height of jealously I was ecstastic,because she always wanted to be one.So I took more jobs and that was when I had met a certain person.

He had been an amazing friend,we became close and he was also the one getting me more and big offers...he had also known about the family drama I was having.So we made a plan...and today was the day we put work to it.

And oh dear sister I will make you and your mother regret even being born and of course not forgetting my uncle.I gave out a evil laugh,low but enough for the man in front me to hear.I didn't notice him or the six pancake I ate alone even when I was about to share.Oh well never mind.I was smiling to myself but the guy in front of me was giving a weird look.Like 'have you finally gone mad?' while furrowing his eyebrows.And I just shook my head helplessly.

It's going to be interesting,just you wait....
