“Scott! What did you do?”

“What?” He asked. He sounded genuinely confused.

“Why did you do this to me? I wanted to start a life here but no. You want me to stay there so you will keep playing the almighty big brother.” I said not caring that my tone was harsh.

He deserved it after what he put me through.

“I am not coming back. Get that into your thick skull.”

“I genuinely have no idea what you are talking about.” He replied.

“You made my boss fire me from my place of work. Right? You made the landlord kick me out..”

I started to say but he cut me short. “Whoa! Stop right there. What do you mean?”

“So you didn’t do it?” I asked instead of answering his questions.

That bastard Killian. I can’t wait to get my hands on him.

Don’t blame me for thinking it was my brother. He had friends that are well connected. I mean he once wanted to do business with a rich guy before everything fell apart.

“I don’t know what you are talking about. Mom is really worried about you.”

“I…I can’t co..” I

    Killian“Mom, this is Mia.” I said as we pulled away. Mom turned towards Mia, keeping her face straight. Ugh! Not this again. She always does these whenever we bring someone home but then turns sweet in a matter of seconds. It's just a front.“Mia, hello.” She pulled her into a slight hug. She turned towards me. “She is beautiful, dear. Come in.”I placed my hand behind Mia and steered her toward the door. We entered the foyer and went into the living room. Mia looked around like a child brought to a Christmas shop.“The butler will take your bags to your room. Let me go and check on the cook.” Mom said before disappearing into the corner. I looked around the house. It feels good to be home. This place holds a lot of memories—good and bad included. “Erm!” Mia cleared her throat snapping back to earth. “I thought your mom was dead.” Her eyes wide and searching, I wanted to tell her what she wanted to know but.“Stop asking unnecessary questions and better stick to the script,” I sa

    Mia“You keep tending to these roses.” Imelda said, startling me. I turned to see her looking around the rose garden, admiration shining in her eyes. “You work too much. Here.” She said, stretching a glass of cold water towards me. Just what I needed. I took the water from her and gulped it down. “Thank you, Imelda.” I handed the glass back to her.“Killian has not mentioned anything about the garden recently, maybe he has not noticed or he chose to ignore it.” I started, “And I’m tending to it because we will be leaving tomorrow. I don’t know how long we will stay.” We stood in silence for a while. I'm going to miss this. It brings some sort of peace to me. I sighed and turned to Imelda. “I'm heading inside now.” “Okay, let’s go,” she said, grabbing the bucket that contains the tools I used. “I have packed everything Killian listed down. If there is any extra thing you need, let me know.” She said as we headed into the house.“Thank you, Imelda, you didn’t have to do that. I can

    MiaI run my hands across the arrays of cloth that hang in the store. Why did Sandra bring me to this place knowing fully well I can’t afford it? I can’t afford to pay Killian back. “Have you seen anything you like yet?” Sandra said from beside me. “Look what I found.” I turned to look at the dress she was holding up, It was blue and silky. “Sexy right?” She asked, dangling the dress, her eyes lit with excitement.I just shrugged, “It is okay.”“What do you mean it is okay? Have you seen this dress?” She said, her eyes bulging. “Every top celebrity wears this.” “It’s beautiful, gorgeous even but I can’t be getting anything just because I like them. I have to check the tag price.” I puckered my lips at her “and every damn thing in here is expensive.” She looked at me in disbelief, “Mia do you realize that you have with you a black card and you know what that means right?” She raised her eyebrows waiting for me to complete her statement.I rolled my eyes at her, “Ughh!” “It's a lim

    MiaI giggled as I pressed the send button. Killian had Imelda bring my phone to me this morning. “Put me on FaceTime.” the text Sandra sent read.I pressed the call button immediately and she didn't waste time answering.“Hey hey bestie!” she squealed. Always so cheerful. I missed talking to her. “You completely forgot about me.” She whined as she puckered her lips.“My phone was having an issue which is why you couldn’t reach me.” “Fabian had been worried sick.”“I know.” I made puppy eyes at her. I called Fabian immediately I got my hands on my phone. The situation is out of my control so all I have to offer is sorry.“How is your baby coming along?” She asked, smiling cheekily again.“My belly is perturbing. And I feel so fat. My clothes don’t fit anymore. And my skin is always dry.” I could go on to list the things that have been happening to me. I just wish I had someone who would hold my hand and walk me through the journey.“You will get through it, baby. I’m here for you.

    MiaI opened my eyes, squinting as the light hit my eyes. I feel a pounding headache in my head, and it hurts the back of my eyes. I tried to sit up. “Lay down please.” I heard Imelda say, I turned to the side and saw her sitting on the lone chair in my room. She was smiling down at me.My throat feels scratchy and croaky. I need water. I pointed at the glass of water on my nightstand. She rushed and handed it over to me. She helped sit up a bit and I gulped down the water. “Thank you,” I mumbled. My head aches and my cheeks and teeth hurt so bad. “What happened? What time is it?” I didn’t remember getting upstairs. The last memory I had was wanting to go upstairs after the whole drama. “It is already morning dear. How are you feeling?” Imelda replied, her smile still in place. “Like I was hit by a truck. And my teeth hurt.” She didn’t say anything but smiled sadly. “Where is Killian?” “He already left for work. And your brother left this morning too.” She took my hands in her

    KillianScott stared back at me; he didn’t say anything. Mia moved immediately forward. “Killian! Hey!” she said in a surprised tone. What are you doing here?”“This is my house.” I said, still keeping my eyes on the motherfucker. “What is he doing here?”“He just..” Mia began to but the annoying brooding male cut her short.“I came to see my sister. Have a problem with that?” He asked with an annoying smirk.“Okay, we are making something to eat. Do you want some?” Mia chipped in trying to break the building tension. “I will go take a shower. Make sure to clean up this mess.” I couldn’t keep the bite out of my voice. “Don’t talk to my sister like that. She was just being nice.” Scott said as he leapt off the chair and came to stand before me.Mia immediately stepped in between us. “Scott it is o..”He is too stubborn, he wants to prove to me that he can take me down. Only if I allow it. But I am not done poking at him.“I will talk to her anyhow I please, she is my wife.” I retorted
