Kye gracefully exited the car, greeted by a row of maids and workers standing in front of the vehicle, ready to welcome her.
As she stepped forward, they bowed and then lifted their heads to acknowledge her presence, their surprise evident in their gazes. Her elegant bow and greeting caught them off guard."Good afternoon, everyone," Kye greeted with a touch of elegance, earning puzzled looks from the assembled group. Her demeanor was quite unexpected.A maid stepped forward, offering to take her bag, but Kye politely declined with a warm smile, making her way towards the main building instead.The door stood open, negating the need for a knock or ring. Stepping inside, she was immediately enveloped in the tantalizing aroma of her favorite dish, pumpkin pudding.Rushing to the kitchen, Kye found her mother there, engrossed in chopping vegetables. Sneaking up from behind, she playfully embraced her mother, causing a startled reaction that quickly melted into relief at recognizing Kye's voice."I've missed you, Mom," Kye murmured, planting a soft peck on her mother's cheek, their bond palpable.Amused, her mother retorted, "What brings you here? You've barely arrived back, and yet the kitchen is your first stop?"Breaking the hug, Kye pouted, remarking, "That's not the welcoming I expected. You haven't even asked about my well-being, my flight, concerts, or tour."Apologizing with a smile, her mother inquired, "How are you? How was your flight, the concerts, and the tour?"With an eye roll, Kye teased, "Better, but anyway, it's not my fault. The aroma of your cooking was my official welcome, and it pulled me straight to the kitchen. I couldn't resist."Mrs. Tanner playfully pinched Kye's cheek, who responded with an exaggerated "Ouch!" accompanied by a theatrical wince."You haven't changed a bit, but you're even more beautifuler," Her mother teased her.Chuckling, Kye noted, "Mom, 'beautifuler' isn't a word.""In my personal dictionary, it is," her mother replied with a mischievous nose twitch. “ Something stinks here.”Kye, feigning concentration, sniffed the air. "I'm not catching any particular scent."Closing in, her mother inhaled around Kye. "I found it.""So, what's causing the scent?" Kye inquired, raising an eyebrow."You," her mother playfully accused.Rolling her eyes, Kye sighed, "Couldn't you just say 'go freshen up'? Why the dramatics?" She left the kitchen, chuckling as her mother's voice carried after her."Your scent is pleasant, not bad at all. Guilty conscience?" her mother called after her, earning an amused grin from Kye as she ascended the stairs.~~~~~🌸 Kylie's POV 🌸Descending to indulge in her mother's cooking, I found my room just as I'd left it.In comfortable attire, sporting a baggy shirt and sweatpants, I joined my brother, Ken, and my mother at the dining table.Planting a kiss on his cheek, I settled into my seat, my mouth watering at the sight of the chicken-fried steak and cream gravy before me.Unable to contain my hunger, I cut a bite and savored the flavors. "Mum, this is heavenly," I complimented. I really missed her meals.She blew a kiss, and I playfully pretended to catch it, both of us sharing a moment of affectionate laughter."Kylie," Ken's sweet voice drew my attention.I turned towards him, mouth full of food. "What?""The thing we talked about..." he reminded me, pushing his food aside.Smirking, I replied, "It's in my room."Quickly pecking my cheek, he rushed upstairs with excitement evident in his demeanor.Curious, my mother queried, "So, what's gotten him so thrilled?"I replied nonchalantly, "Something."After cleaning my mouth with a napkin, I exchanged my plate for a serving of pumpkin pudding."Care to share the mystery?" my mother pressed.I shook my head, digging into the pudding and savoring the taste.With an eye roll, she playfully scolded, "You're not making it easy, are you?"I responded with a knowing smile and a mouthful of pudding.Her eyes rolled dramatically. "Where's your husband?" I inquired, scooping another spoonful."He's on a business trip," she answered."Today?""No, he postponed it just because you were coming back.""I didn't mention that. Well, it's a good thing; I can attend school," I grinned.Confused, she questioned, "School? I thought you were homeschooled.""I remember. But it's so dull. No friends, no interaction. Just you and the teacher. Boring," I complained.She defended, "Well, sometimes boring is good.""Mum, don't be like Dad.""Why? Remember the last time you attended school?"I rolled my eyes. "Don't let the past define the future.""Keep reciting motivational quotes. They won't change my mind.""By the way, I've already enrolled myself at your school.""What?!" My mother nearly shouted, her surprise evident."Relax, don't raise your blood pressure."With an eye roll, she huffed, "How did you manage that?""I applied for a scholarship exam, passed, and got admitted to your school on scholarship. I can't exactly turn that down," I explained, feigning a forlorn expression."Well, I'll just decline it and accuse you of cheating.""Mum!" I protested."Don't 'Mum' me. I have to move from that beautiful estate to this one," she teased, feigning annoyance.Since paparazzi had discovered our previous residence during my schooling, Dad sold the house, and we relocated here to escape the constant crowds."Mom, forgive and forget," I pouted. "Plus, I won't be going as myself. I'll be in disguise.""Alright, I'll allow it. But no clown costumes," she warned."Does that mean I can go?"She nodded, and I couldn't contain my excitement, hugging her tightly and smothering her with kisses."I love you, Mom," I said genuinely."Fake love," she teased."No, I really do love you.""And I'm seriously telling you not to dress as a clown."I rolled my eyes, secretly entertaining the idea of going as a clown.Kylie's POV I glanced at the clock on the wall, it was 5: 30 am. I woke up too early even before my alarm goes off. It is not that I'm a morning person. I hate mornings, it's stressful. But I tend to be today because of the excitement I have for going to school. I know there is nothing to be excited for, I heard school is stressful but I want to experience it. It is better than being homeschooled, just wake up, binge watching on Netflix then wait for your teacher to come, teach for a hour or so I guess and eat and go to bed. That's freaking boring. Okay enough of all those details. I'm in a crisis, someone help me, anybody. I sighed in disappointment looking at my wardrobe. It is not that I don't have clothes to put on to school. I have, infact many of them and that is the problem. I never knew having fancy an
Kylie's POV " Kylie, I'm already leaving." I heard mom shout downstairs. " I'm coming." I shouted back as i take my school and check myself in the mirror. I gave myself a thumb up, I don't have a problem with my look and also finding the dress to go with. Thank God the students put on uniform that solved my problem of looking for what to wear. Well I'm putting on a blue long sleeve shirt, the logo of the school was imprinted on it with black knee-length pleated skirt and I put on the school's tie, it was blue striped with black. The uniform looks nice on me. " Kylie if you do not come downstairs now, we will leave you." Mom shouted making me stop checking myself. " Just give me a minute, I will be down." " A minute is too much, I give you just 20 seconds." She shouted with all seriousnes
Kylie's POV " Even with your glasses you can't still see." The voice said, it sounds manly and British. " I'm sorry." I said and went out of the office without looking at him, the only thing I saw was his blue eyes and it was pretty. That is not what I am suppose to be thinking, what I should be thinking is how to find my class. Well I'm having history as my first period. Sometimes I do wonder why we are studying history, it is in the past we should focus on the future. I hate History like damn... It is fucking boring. Let me don't start with all those names and their achievement that has to be in your head, it can be really stressful learning their names then write the exam only to see different things. How can I find the class ? I just wish someone like the way Anna came will just popped out. It look like luck is on my s
Kylie's POV I entered the biology class, the teacher was already teaching, I greeted him with a smile, he smiled back. Thankfully I saw an empty chair at the middle row, the second seat. I sat down there. Someone barged into the class then every body started shouting with excitement. Some girls were trying to gain his attention by raising their skirts up to seduce him or something but he just ignored them. "Girls." I said with a scoff shaking my head. " Mr Sanders, please next time do enter the class as a normal student." The teacher said. He was one of all those boys that Anna was telling me about in the cafeteria. He just ignored the man. " Rude." I muttered under my breath and rolled my eyes then bent down to open my bag and take my books and pen. I raised my head up only to receive deadly glares
Kylie's POV After biology class, I went for English which is the last class for today. The time went by quickly, the bell rang signifying closing hours. Everybody came out of the class including me. I stretched my body feeling stressed. I guess it is time to go home. Gosh I have forgotten I have detention just because of that dude. " Are you going home now ? " Anna asked behind me. Spending time with her has made me mastered her voice. " Not yet. I earned a detention in my biology class." I said with a chuckle. " Being naughty on your first day." She wiggled her eyebrows. " See you tomorrow." She said. I smiled and waved her. " Bye. " She waved back and walked away. I took my phone from my bag and tried calling mom so I can inform her but it was not going through, so I texted her then put in my bag and closed my bag.
Kylie's POV " Why ?! " " Why are you screaming ? It could wake the old man up, let him have some sleep." Ashton said with a smirk. I resisted the urge to roll my eyes then something spark in my head, an idea. I started crying, sat on the floor wailing in sadness. " I know I told you guys not to ditch caused that jerk pissed me off... Sorry Ashton and I don't have the courage to do so. I'm on a scholarship here, I can't afford to lose it so I'm afraid if I ditch I will loose my scholarship, so I'm just being careful." I said as tears flowed from my eyes down to my cheeks. " So why do you want to ditch now ? " Eric asked in concern. Aissh, what am I going to say ? " Because.... because... because." I sttutered in tears. " Calm down and tell us." The black haired guy , Dexton said.
Kylie's POV Beep... Beep... Beep... That was the annoying sound I have been hearing that did not want me to sleep. I groaned and roll on the bed. " Someone should off that annoying thing." I said with a weary tone using my hand to look for the alarm clock on the nightstand beside my bed. Something fell, I was happy I thought it was the alarm clock but not until I heard the beeping sound. Beep... Beep... " Let me use my telekinesis power, off you stupid thing, off. I command you to.... " " I am no more hearing the beeping sound.. I have powers. " I felt something wet touching my face. " Wait is rain falling here ? " It was still dripping on my face, I twitched my nose. " Mum.... Rain is falling or am I outside, no I am in my room." " Seriously rain is...."
