Rebirth:Her Pride のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

I was carried away by the thoughts about my childhood days. I checked my time, "Ouch! It's very late. I need to sleep. I have had a long day. I heard a knock on my door. I was very tired to get up from my bed. "Did I lock it?" It has been part of me to always lock my room every night. It all started from my childhood days. "Dad! Why are you dressed in a sporty wear?" Just then, my mom showed up. "Wow! What's happening? You two are going for early morning exercise I guess" "You guessed right" "When did this start?" The two couples looked at themselves and smiled. "Would you like to join us?" Dad asked. "Not at all. I feel so tired" "It's alright, when you feel like taking your breakfast. The food is ready" Mom said. I admired them as they walked down the stairs. My phone rang and I knew who the caller was. "Hello" "Valerie, how was your night?" "Very well Ezra" "When are you returning?" How does he expect me to answer that question? "I just arrived yesterday

I cut in. "But what?" I was beginning to get upset. Why will such information be hidden from me? "We were waiting for the right time to tell you this, because we don't know how you would feel," Mom said. "We wanted you to be strong enough and be sure that you could handle the pain of transforming into a wolf" I became confused. What pain were they talking about? I was deep in thought recalling all that happened in the past, when my phone rang. It was the last person I expected that would call me. "Hello, Chelsea" "Valerie, I have been trying your line for a long time. What happened?" I knew she lied. How can she be calling my number for so long and it was not connecting? When did I travel? "I traveled" "Wow, you traveled and you couldn't tell me" "Why are you acting up as if you cared about my whereabouts? I supposed that you should be happy that I am no longer around" "Valerie, why are you talking like this? You are still my friend" "Really!" She thinks that I

VALERIE'S POV I don't know why everyone wants me back. I just traveled and haven't even enjoyed myself. Some days back,I was almost killed because Ezra was missing. Now I left them, and everyone is acting up as if they cared. That was the second time in my life experiencing a very terrible attack. The environment was not conducive, so I had to leave. The first time I experienced such an attack was when I was much younger. It happened that an Alpha was to be chosen. Many wolves living in our quarters wanted to attain the position. I could remember Dad came home one certain evening, looking so angry. I asked him what the problem was. But I got no response. I thought maybe it was from his workplace, so I let him be. My friend Tracy also complained about her father. She told me that her dad has been moody for days. I equally explained my own side too. She told me that she would find out because her parents never kept anything from her. Tracy was the only child and she knows eve

"Hi, Valerie," She said, smiling. "What are you doing here?" "I came to see you" "You are supposed to be with your parents and not walking about looking for who you will visit" She faced down, I am sure the statement hit her hard. "I am sorry, but I don't want this to affect our friendship. Our parents should sort themselves out" "Really? Well I stand with my parents, so please leave my house" Mom and dad heard me raising my voice. They asked to know who the person was only to come out and see that it was Ralph's daughter. I didn't allow her inside the house, I stood at the door. "Young girl, what brought you here?" My mom asked. "Good day ma, I came to see my friend" "Your friend? Are you not the one that insulted her yesterday when she came to see you?" "I have realized my mistakes and I came to apologize" "Your father came to our house last night and warned me never to step foot in your house, if not my parents will carry my corpse. And my dad promised the s

"Dad, from what I observed, it could be a car that is being controlled with a remote" " I think you are very correct my daughter" " Honey, so you think? what about a ghost?" "Mom, I don't think ghosts exist" "Valerie, you think so?" "Yes mom, thinking of a ghost is all about imagination" " not really my dear, they are real" "Okay! Can you both stop this arguments about a ghost and let us focus on who the controller was according to Valerie," "So what do you think we should do?" Mom asked. " I have a suggestion. From the little knowledge I have, I think we should track the number that called dad. What do you think?" Dad looked at me with so much surprise. "Now you're talking. Who gave you that idea? I think that is the best thing to do" "Mom, hope you're not jealous?" I teased her. "Why should I be jealous?" "Dad, I don't know why I am suspecting Tracy's father?" "Exactly where my mind went to. But we all saw him going to work" "But the car does not look like his
