"What took you so long you wrench!" Father yelled.
'"I'm sorry Father, I forgot something in Sir Ace's house. He just came over to return it to me."'
"I'm sorry Father, I forgot something in Sir Ace's house. He just came over to return it to me." I said turning around and bowing down.
In the corner of the eye I saw Amaranth who just manged to get her breathing steady go pale again.
"Tch! You are going to go on the media and dismiss the news of Jennette being a reckless driver!" Father screamed.
"P-Papa?" Amaranth spoke.
I was in shock Amaranth dared to speak.
But I saw her face was still pale and her breathing was unsteady.
Which means she's forcing herself right now.
Father looked at Amaranth who looked pathetic right now.
The pang of guilt showed on Father's face as he probably started to hallucinate that Amaranth was Mama.
Father stared at Amaranth for awhile before shaking his head as holding his forehead.
"I am going to sleep! No one is to disturb me!" Father said as he stormed upstairs.
"Mara?" I called.
Amaranth slowly turned her head to me, her eyes were all teary and her face was pale on top of that her legs were shaking.
"Come here." I said softly as I kneeled down so that both my knees were on the ground.
Amaranth didn't want another second and darted into my arms.
"M-mara is s-scared!" Amaranth started crying and quite loudly too.
"Shhh. It's ok. Sissy is here." I replied patting her head slowly.
"M-Mara did t-the right t-hing right?" Amaranth asked between hiccups and tears.
"Yes. Mara was so brave." I said.
My own legs couldn't support my strength.
My own eyes and threatening to spill tears.
But it all didn't happen.
I needed to be here for Amaranth.
What kind of sister would I be if I dealt with my own feelings first.
"You know mara. Sissy feels ashamed of herself." I mumbled quietly.
Amaranth looked up at me and tilted her head.
"Sissy couldn't stop Father but Mara literally looked at him and he stopped." I said hoping that me putting myself down will bring out the Amaranth I knew.
"Sissy feels like she failed Mara." I continued.
"Sissy n-never fail Mara! S-Sissy though o-of Mara first when s-she could get out of S-Sissy room! S-Sissy isn't bad! Sissy i-is thoughtful!" Amaranth said cheering up.
"Mara was sooooo brave just now!" I said knowing that it would help Amaranth's mood.
"Mara did it f-for Sissy!" Amaranth said.
'Huh...?' I stopped the smile that was about to appear on my face.
"Mara did it for Sissy?" I asked back.
"Mara thinks that Papa thinks that Mara looks like Mama. So if Mara looks pitiful to Papa, papa will go away!" Amaranth said finally stopping her hiccups.
"Thank you..." I said softly as I tried to stand up with amaranth in my arms.
I was a little bit wobbly but it was fine.
"Athy, Mara you guys ok?" Felix appeared.
"Mara and Sissy are fine! See!" Amaranth put a wide eye to eye smile on.
"Thank goodness! I thought I was going to die from a heart attack!" Felix exaggerated a sigh.
"Uncle Fel die!?" Amaranth said showing fear and shock.
"Wait! No, no! It's just an expression Mara! It means I was scared! That's all!" Felix replied.
"Oh ok!" Amaranth replied.
I slowly walked up the stairs with Felix by my side.
"Sissy..." Amaranth tugged my sleeve as we were at her room door.
"Yes Mara?" I asked.
"Can Mara sleep with sissy?" Amaranth said putting on her puppy eyes.
"Sure!" I said walking away from her door and going to the door furthest to the left which was my room.
My door was made of wood with some carvings and there was a sign bored there written Athy's room written in cursive and white and red roses hanging of vines that were all over the sign.
I sat Amaranth down into my bed.
The moment I sat her down she made herself comfortable and instantly gave into sleep.
I sat down on the bed beside her and moved some of her bangs away from her face.
My room had a queen sized bed in the middle. It was white and all the pillows covers and blankets were white.
Infront of my bed was a huge TV which I don't even use.
On the left of my TV was a door which lead to a small walk-in wardrobe which I hardly use.
Below the TV was a wardrobe that wasn't tall but it had all the clothes I mostly wore.
On the right of my TV was a desk which was in a L shape.
It had books and a computer on top of it.
Beside me bed were night stands.
One side which was the right side had a lamp.
The lamp was decorated with stickers which I put there when Mama was still alive.
The left side had books stacked on top of the nightstand with a small picture frame beside it.
Every single room in this house other then one of the guest rooms was a master bed room.
Which meant there was a toilet directly infront of my door.
My whole room was mainly white.
The only other Shade of colours were from books and my grey flooring.
The walls of my room were also pure pearl white.
Above my bed was a huge window.
It had translucent white curtains on.
It was also had a mini sitting area which is were I sit when I read.
Sometimes Amaranth would be doing puzzles on it while I read books.
Once she was asleep Felix spoke.
Felix was behind me this entire time.
"Athy, I think I need to leave now before Lil' comes at me thinking that I'm having an affair." Felix sighed.
'Well I don't have anything going on tomorrow so...' our shoot for Lovely princess is postponed untill Jennette gets better.
"May I visit you two tomorrow?" I asked hoping I can help Felix and lily.
Last I saw them they were having this crazy in love expression on both their faces.
I wonder what went wrong.
"That would be great! Hopefully Lil' will tell me what i did wrong... I'm dieing to know so I can fix it..." Felix sighed.
"I'm sure you two will get better..." I said trying to encourage Felix who looked lost.
"I hope so.." Felix exited my room.
After a while I heard the front door open and close meaning Felix left.
I sat on my bed and took my phone out of my bag.
'Huh...?' I saw a message from an unknown number.
Unknown number
Hey? Are you sure your ok?
Who are you?
I'm the most handsome dude on earth.
Duh!
Seriously... Who are you?
The person who kindly returned your bag to you.
Oh Lucas!
Why didn't you just say so...
Where's the fun in that?
Seriously...
Anyways! Are you ok?
Yeah. I just fell off the stairs.
Uh-huh... I hope you know I don't believe you at all right now.
So...
How did you get my contact?
From the group chat.
Oh! That makes more sense.
How dense can you be?
If I'm dense what are you?
I'm god compared to go so obviously if your dense I'm still smart.
I gotta sleep now.
Same here.
Bye?
Bye.
I turned off my phone feeling a sense of warmth...
'It's nice to be able to talk to someone...' I thought.
'Get to work Athanasia, we don't want another scolding'
I punched in some numbers on my phone.
'"Hello? This is Athanasia de Alger obelia speaking."'
"Hello? This is Athanasia de Alger obelia speaking." I spoke into the phone as I got off the bed and on my computer.
'"Yes. I would like to have an interview on the news of Jennette being a reckless driver."'
"Yes. I would like to have an interview on the news of Jennette being a reckless driver." I said opening goggle to goggle the news of Jennette.
'"Ah when am I available? Will the day after tomorrow do?"'
"Ah. When am I available? Will the day after tomorrow do?" I asked.
Jennette was going to take awhile to recover from what I saw on the news with photos of her.
'"It will be my pleasure to appear as a special guest!"'
"It will be my pleasure to appear as a special guest!" I replied as I stretched getting ready to pull an all nighter and work on getting all the information I have of Jennette's crash.
'Lets see how I will clean up her mess this time...'
