“You’re the girl Brandon can’t shut up about. I can see why.” He said looking at me
Their mom looked at him
“Sorry, Im Landon.” He said holding his hand out.
“Sorry about them. You can call me Naomi.” She said with a smile
“This is my husband, Shawn.” She said
“Hi. Your dad’s talked about you a lot.” He said and shook my hand.
Brandon walked down the stairs and looked at me and then continued to walk down the stairs. I blushed slightly.
“Okay Dinner time.” Naomi announced.
“This way.” Brandon said
I followed him.
It was a huge room nicely decorated. Brandon pulled out a chair for me and I sat down.
Naomi served dinner and everyone began eating.
“So, Victoria I heard you’ve been in England.” Shawn said
“Yeah.” I replied
“How was it?” He asked
“I really didn’t get a chance to look around. I was sent to a boarding school and they had very strict rules about sightseeing.” I replied
“Oh, Im sorry. Your dad never mentioned that you were at a boarding school.” He said
“It’s okay.” I said
“If you don’t mind me asking but why are you here. I mean since you haven’t seen your dad or your mom in over three years.” Landon spoke up
Naomi spoke up, “You’ll have to excuse my son, He seems to have forgotten his manners.” She said
“It’s okay. I got home and found a note saying that they were going out and won’t be home until later.” I said
“Oh Im so sorry dear.” Naomi
“Don’t be Im used to it I guess.”
Everyone stared at me.
“So how was your flight?” Shawn asked
“It was quite annoying” I said
They looked at me.
“I had to sit by this annoying boy who wouldn’t quit talking.” I started laughing.
Shawn and Naomi looked at each other
Brandon spoke up, “Remember When I was talking about the girl who I sat beside on the flight?”
“Yeah.” They both said
“That girl was Victoria.” He said
“Ohhh…. But you said how much….”
That was all they got to say.
Brandon got up from the table and walked up to his room.
I started laughing.
“Sorry about that. He said nice things about you through.” She said
“It’s okay really, Stop saying you’re sorry.” I said
“So your mom seems very nice.” She said
“Well, she’s not my real mom. My mom died three years ago. My dad met Lacey after it and I guess they got married last summer.” I said
“You don’t know if they got married?” she asked
“No after my mom died I got very angry and started to rebel I guess. Then when my dad met lacey she wouldn’t tolerate my behavior, so she sent me to boarding school. To become a better person.” I said.
“That’s terrible. Your welcome here whenever.” She said.
“Thanks for that. I just thought when I came back everything would be back to normal.” I said.
I heard someone knocking on the door.
Naomi’s fourth son came in and so did Brandon.
“Sorry about my mom.” He said
I was just about to say don’t be when Naomi came back in, but with Lacey.
“There she is.” Lacey said running over to me. Almost like she cared.
“I made dinner and everything. I’ve been looking for you for the past hour.” She said.
“I saw your note and decided to come over here.” I said
“What note?” She asked.
“The one that said you and Dad wouldn’t be home until after midnight. That there was dinner in the fridge.” I said
“I never put such a note. I’ve been baking all day. I just can’t believe your home.” She said.
Everyone stared at her.
“I guess we will be leaving.” She said grabbing a hold of my jacket. I saw Brandon wasn’t at the table anymore. I guess he thought I was a freak show. “Thanks Naomi for letting her come over here for dinner, but we will be returning home now. There’s no need for her to be over here anymore she has a mom.” She said looking directly at Naomi.
Then she grabbed even harder at my shirt and dragged me out of the house.
“Don’t you ever do that to me again?” She said
“What did I even do?” I asked
“You know the whole let’s go to the neighbors and look pathetic. I don’t want you going over there ever again, unless with me. Go it?” She said
“Why?” I asked
“I don’t want you hanging out with those boys. There trouble. You’ll hang out with my friends children. Got it.” She said
“Eye Eye Captain.” I said
She eyed me and looked as if she was going to hit me.
“Just go up to your room. I’ll deal with you later.” She said
I walked up into my room and began to cry. I cried for at least another four hours until it was 11 at night. That’s when I thought I heard my phone. But it couldn't be who would text me?
Hello
Who is this?
Its me, Brandon.
What did he want?
