"Let her go!" I shouted at the man holding Kris, Melanie's crying beside me as she watched Kris trying to let off their grip. I turn my head to look at the man named Anthon-- the boss. "Please!" I said, pleading to him to let my sister go.
He nodded and they let go of Kris, she then ran towards us and hug Melanie, "Come here, Lily," Anthon said, looking at me seriously. I wipe my tears and look at him trying to look brave I sigh and walk close to him he then grabs my hand when I was near him and drags me out of the room leaving my two sisters behind. I can hear their muffled complaints when I walk with this man. I am confused and hesitant by his actions.
We stop by the big window, he was facing outside and I was just beh
It's been days since were staying here at Conard's mansion, In those days I haven't seen him that much because he was always busy with his work or he was out meeting people for God knows what business.I sigh and look at the maids who are now busy preparing for dinner, I then turn my head to watch my two sisters talking at the other part of the sofa giggling about something, I shake my head and sigh-- if sighing was money I'd be probably rich by now.I saw the maid walking towards our direction, looking serious-- their maids here are not that quite friendly or maybe because they are trained to act and do so which is not impossible because of Conards wealth and respectable family they should too act like they are fit for this mansion, to serve."Dinner's ready, Miss," She said when she was near in our direction, standing few steps away from where we are sitting, I slightly nodded my
The day ended with us finishing to pack our things, it's not much because we haven't been able to buy new clothes and other things though Anthon bought us pairs of shirts, jeans, and dresses which some of them were refused because it was too much.I stretched my arms, and shake my fingers a little when I finished packing our things croaking my neck to the side as I walk slowly to our bed. I sat on the bed and took a glance at Melanie and Kris who are now finished packing their bags."Is that all?" I said when I saw they just packed four bags in total two of their bags are pack bags and the other two
"Who are you?" said the boy croaking his neck to the side as he watches the girl sitting on the end of the slide crying, wearing a white dress stained with mud, dirty and disgusting he thought at the back of his mind, making a disgusted expression in his face then his eyes darted on the little girl's hair, she has these black curly ends and her hair are tied with a pink ribbon and pair of white sandals. The girl sob as she raises her head to look up at the boy who was standing in front of her, with tears in her eyes. "Who are you?" The girl asks back as she wipes her tears using her palms, the boy's face distorts with disgust as he stares at the girl who is now wiping her face with her own hands and sniffing like some street children, with a dress in complete mess stained with mud and dirty pair of white sandals. "I asked you first," The boy said, the girl was just there looking at her not saying a wor
"Lily," I heard Anthon called me, I turn my head to face him and saw him standing behind me with a bag in his hand. "Let's go," He said, I nodded my head and turn my attention to my sister Melanie who is now walking her way to the car. "Careful!" I half-shouted at my sister when she nearly tripped. I shake my head when I saw her laugh and raise her hand saying the 'okay' sign. Anthon was now beside me. I glance at him, he was always serious and grumpy. "When we get there we will take about the arrangements," He announced, I only nodded my head when we reach the car, I sat beside Melanie, Kris was in front of us then Anthon sat beside me. I can smell this musky scent of perfume, manly but not irritating to smell-- the type of perfume you want to smell all day long. I cleared my throat and put my hand into Melanie's shoulder hugging her and I close my eyes leaning on the seat's backrest. I sigh and let myself drift to sleep.
Calli, this is the place where I grow up, where it all started. I sigh as I finished arranging our clothes. I thought that maybe if it didn't happen this wouldn't happen and we still have our father on our side and wouldn't stock in this situation. "Are you done?" I asked Kris, she glances at me as she was folding her shirts and nodded her head. "Melanie?" I asked the little one who was now piling her folded shirts, a smile creeps into my lips as I watch her seriously piling the dress and shirts into the right order. "Yup, I'm done," she said popping the 'p'.
Hell no!My eyes widen as I read what's written on the paper, I turned my attention to Anthon who is now clenching his jaw making him more attractive but damn! this is not the right time to think of right now, Lily!I stood up from the chair I was sitting in and grab the pieces of paper, reading them face to face as my eyes scanned the words written on the paper, reading it out loud gasping for air in shock at what was there. Heck! This is not what we talked about!
"So, it's settled then?" Anthon asked, I glance at him and back to my two sisters who are now blinking their eyes staring at me, gaping and shock from what they have learned earlier. "You're getting married?" Kris asked, I slowly nodded my head. A week later I finally decided to talk to them about the situation. Anthon looks at me and then at my sister Kris. I bite my lower lip as I wait for them to say a word as Kris was just looking at Anthon, staring at each other then my sister looked at me furrowing her brow, she then suddenly stood up from her seat and grab my hand leaving the room. "Excuse us," she coldly said as she walks with me behind her, I just followed her saying a word to her. She's like a mother that is ready to scold you when you do something she didn't like. I bite my lower lips as I wait for her to speak when we reached the end of the hallway, quiet part of the mansion.
They said, decisions in life is crucial because it's either you choose what makes you happy or choose what makes others happy and it's important because you might regret it or not, it depends and for me it's none of the two, I choose what I think is the best for all.I got back from reality when I heard a snapping of fingers in front of me, blinking I look at Anthon who is staring at me with his fingers in front of me snapping making me wake up from my thoughts, gasping for air filling my lungs and look at him puzzled.I shrug my shoulders asking him. "What?" as my brows furrowed. He shakes his head and sighs when he realized that I am not listening. "You're not listening and I bet you don't understand what I said earlier," He said seriously, letting off a nervous chuckle I apologize to him and trying to gather focus on things. "I'm sorry, I just suddenly thought of something," half apologetic and guil
