"How are you!!! Silly" she smiles and tugged me close, we both partook a smile, before I went on to ask, "what are you doing here? I thought you left the city, years ago with your parents?".
Sophia retained her smile, replying to me, she says and I quote, "yes! I did leave the city because father got a job, but I am here now since I found out that, you're back to the city, I came to see if it was true". (Smile)
The last hours were spent making up for a lost time, Sophia was a childhood friend in elementary school, she would always come home every three weeks for a slumber party at my house, dad and Sara will always keep a close watch on us, decerning how mischievous we were going to be if left alone in the room.
It didn't end there, I brought Sophia home, after being adamant to stay at the hotel for a whole month, and trust me, I wouldn't have let her go anywhere, even if, I had to tie her up and fling her inside my car.
<After a while, I walked into Elena's room and saw her sound asleep, she was so deep, that she didn't even know that someone walked into the room.I verged further and quietly fell my eyes on her, so many thoughts ran through my mind, that I wished my life would be better if only the woman who birthed me wasn't such a demoness, and father, would still be alive and here with me! But the universe knew why such things happen, even the one far from our moral strength.(I walked away from the room)It hasn't been an hour I left the room, methane entered without anyone's knowledge, she strolled over to Elena bed, brought out a syringe from her back pocket, and said in a revolted tone, "I have been praying for God to give me the chance to finally take revenge on you! I swear Elena, each day that passes, feels like torture, working for the same woman who killed my parents, I hate you so much, Elena Kahn and I know that you won't be missed, w
Sara waited for Riya to leave before asking me the pending question, running through her mind, "what's going on?" She asked me, apparently after explaining everything, veers back in a shocked demeanor, Sophia twitched her head, to her, it was either methane was stupid or acting out of sentiment, but I'm not sure, yes! Methane acted foolishly, but something doesn't add up.We all ran out of thoughts, trying to figure something out, thus, everything came to a whole new level, when I hoisted my head up and took notice of Elena ambling out of her room, with her legs and hands functioning."Huh!! What the heck is going on?".Sara and Sophia sewed their eyes and took notice of the same, donning a startled look, Sara almost fell unconscious, we all thought that Elena was handicapped, after being in a shocking accident, this has got to be a sneaky plan of Elena Khan, why would she act such a drama and act as a handicap."Yo
Elena's clenched her hands out of anger, and watched me leave, she airs fist tightly and said, "I'll make sure that the same nanny whom you love and rant about so many, ends up died once again, I am sick and tired of hearing her praises, luckily Sara is here and it will give me the access I need to execute my plan, idiot, I'll teach you not to mess with Elena khan, even though you're my son". (She walks away)I locked the door to my room, changed into my nightwear, and got into the bed, I felt calmness around me, the sounds ceased, until I found myself standing at the middle of a crossroads.I veered back, to the left and right, no one seems to come, I tried to move forward but my feet were frozen solid to the ground, "what the hell?" I struggled to get myself free when a voice lets out to my hearing, "Andre's! Please save me?". Immediately I turned and took notice of Riya bagged down to the floor, I ran a shocked expression and still attempted to b
I felt an unusual peace, seeing them (Sara and Riya) in one piece, the atmosphere seems to change to a point I wouldn't mind staying like this for a little longer.But Riya was so dumbfounded to an extent, pushed me back to my senses, maintaining her exact look at me."Salem!!! Are you okay!" She copies back her same words to me, fiddling to hear my comeback.A weak smile was spotted on my face, hence I veered back to my room, in a headcount of three out of five, Riya chased me and ran into my room.She attempted to leave no stone unturned in finding out the reason for my weird demeanor, I just demonstrated not quite long ago."Tell me what's going on! Or else you will be sorry" Riya threatened to get the truth from me.I finally got over the shock and attained my attention to her, I know how shaken she was seeing me In seeing me in such a manner, but reeling in the truth was no way
Riya walks out and handed me two plane tickets, donning a huge smile on."What's this! And why are you giving me plane tickets, I never told you I would be traveling?". I said but got interrupted by Elena's voice, she says, "oh come on, don't act do stiff and besides Riya is just following my instructions, I believe it's high te we all went for a family vacation!!".I veered and noticed the rather enthusiasm in her demeanor, what's going on in her head? I asked myself."Erm!! Am sorry miss Elena but you guys can go for your family vacation, while I'll stay back with my nanny and Sophia, bye!!".I attained my eyes and walked past without altering a single word, but got withheld when Sara blocked my path."Nanny!! What's going on?" I whispered my words, as they all looked trying to listen.Sara says, "Andres!! I feel it vacation is want we need to f
The plane ducked after a three hours drive, we walked out and got into the car waiting to take us to the hotel, and a few hours later, it stopped at the ranch, dad built for a family vacation, as well strolled in and went straight to our rooms.Mine was in the middle of Riya's and Sophia's rooms, yet again for the second time in a day, is it just I or the universe is trying to tell me something.The same day, Elena we called outside the ranch, I walked out and saw a huge round table positioned in front."What's going on!! I asked uncle Julian, he shoots a curious smile at me, then Elena walks in with Riya behind, holding a jar of flashcards in her hands."Hello my lovely family!!! And welcome too, Khan's family game night, come over and have a seat".Elena seems to be in a happy mood, Sara falls her eyes and assured that everything will be fine because she knew that my mom
This chapter will be read as RiyaRiya POVThe whole day expired with so much love in the air, even Salem had fun also, apparently, it was the first time I have seen him enjoy the company of others, he always been awkward and lost-minded."Miss Riya".I veered and fell my eyes on Salem's friend, what's her name again!! (Ponder in thought), "oh yeah, it's Sophia"."Hello dear!! May I help you please?" I donned an unstable smile and waited for her to speak."I'll like to ask you something! May I?". She retorts back with a question."Sure!!! What's up?" I asked once more.Sophia fills up the remaining distance between us conserving her eyes on me."I want to know something!! What do you know about Salem Baltimore?".Her words make no sense to me, it's either this might be a rhetorical question or is she being serious?
Reading as Andres KhanAndre's Khan POVThe whole room went silent the second Elena blabbed out the truth without thinking, Riya nudged me away and ran out of the house, yet again everyone stared and didn't do anything to prevent her from leaving, so I ran out to meet her."Andre's"Sophia called out to me but I gave daft ears to her, trying to meet up with a wounded Riya, who kept running.(Running continues)We kept running through the streets, I constantly kept calling out to her but she refused to stop, luckily I ran up and held her back from embarking on a marathon race."What the hell is wrong with you?" I said trying to catch my breath, the anger and rage she felt boils up, and with that vented her whole anger and me.Quietly I listened to her speak and physically assault me, I know that doing such will calm her for a
