"She's a friend of mine, we know each other from high school and I wanted someone close to take care of your mother," Jack said with a smile.
"oh!" she was touched by her stepfather explanation and feel a bit guilty to act recklessly because her stepfather was the only one who had treated her so well and take care of her mother as well while when her real father just left them behind to die.
"I am really sorry to act recklessly," Sera said with a pout.
But Jack and Naira just smiled and let it slide and walked towards the dining room for breakfast. While eating Jake told her "Your room is ready you can just go in and check or place your things there and your brother, he will be back in the night so you will be able to meet him on dinner"
After hearing that she started trembling, she really doesn't want to meet him again. Seeing her not replying Jake asked politely "Everything okay?"
Sera control herself and said with a faint smile "Ya!... "
Jake left for his office work and Sera go to visit her mother again after putting her things.
She got to know the things from Naira that her mother's brain functioning gets stopped and her body turns out to be so weak because of excessive stress and right now she's in kind of coma. She really feels bad seeing her mother like this and went outside to get some air.
She went to the near book store to look around. She was just looking around that her gaze falls on a book that she really wanted to read for a long time. The moment she was going to grab it her hand brushed with someone else, she turned to look whose hand it was she saw a handsome guy standing just next to her he has really deep black eyes and pure white skin, his lips were small pink and he was wearing a baseball jacket with a black T-shirt and black Jean's.
For a moment, they both stared at each other, and finally, the boy spoke up in an icy tone "You can have it."
Sera came back to her senses and replied nervously "Okay"
She really is not used to icy tones and wasn't able to face any man because she feels like they all are like Aaron.
After saying that the boy left without a word and Sera didn't take a second and left the store with that book.
..
The moment she opens the door she saw Aaron and feels a shiver inside her body. Aaron was on the phone so he just ignored her and went into his room.
She really feels relieved seeing him just leave but she questions herself till when she will act weak like this but she can't even do something because she really doesn't want to destroy their happy family in any means. So, she walks straight towards her room.
Her room was just next to Aaron's. So she walks fast but the moment she crosses his room door. Suddenly someone grabs her hand and pulls her inside. She got really confused about what just happened and when she finally realized she felt like someone was kissing on her neck. She tried hard to push him but she just feels weaker, The moment she saw it was Aaron, she feels more disgusting that she wanted to push him away but she can't.
Seeing her giving up Aaron stopped and smirked.
"So now you're enjoying it too, of course, it will be a pleasure for you to have me on your bed"
Hearing this Sera really get red in anger and want to rip off his throat but she just has a soft spot for her family members. So without a word she left and lock herself in her room.
She fell down on the floor and started crying thinking about what just happened to her. She scratches her neck where Aaron kissed her, she really wants to cut out that part away from her body, this was the only family she has. The family she always wished for and she really doesn't want to push everything away because of one wrong step. She knows how much Aaron is mean to her Dad and she doesn't know whose side he will take and what if he leaves her and her mom just like her real father. So she decided to remain silent, Yes SILENT.
...
At 8:00 on the dining table,
Everyone sat down to have their meals except her mother. She really misses her but when she saw Naira sitting on her mother's place her heart clench, she really wants to push her away but then she doesn't want to create a scene.
"So you will attend your college from tomorrow right?" Aaron said smiling politely.
She just says "hmm" without giving any thought and didn't initiate ahead in conversation with Aaron.
She doesn't want to eat more, so she heads up first. She heads towards her bed and laid down, she was so tired that she fell asleep in a second.
But after a while, she felt someone hands around her chest. The moment she was about to scream, Someone covered her mouth and Sera heard a whisper "Don't scream, do you want to wake up everyone?" she recognize that voice.
Aaron smirked and get up from the bed and said softly "Goodnight sister".
Sera didn't even move an inch and start crying when she finally saw him moved out. She was really hurt why all this happening to her? Why can't she just have a simple happy life? Why?
She doesn't want to wake anyone else so she covers her mouth and then tried to scream as loud she could. She really wants to get hold off everyone First her father, Then her friends, and now Aaron .. WHY? Why everyone is doing this to her?
