Chereads / A GIRL IN THE GARDEN / Chapter 5 - Payback Time

Chapter 5 - Payback Time

Anne's

This is weird!

I am wondering and asking myself at the same time but I couldn't find a single answer, how did it fell off my hair. I really pinned to my hair.

Goshhh.....

''Hey!''

Someone called.

It sounds tiny though it's a voice of a girl.

I turned to find a girl who seems to be more older than me, she is 5 inches taller than I.

She is just like brady height and she is really beautiful, her blue eyes are dazzling amazingly just like that of Lucas, her golden hair glow even though it kinda messy

She is really beautiful and skinny just those Chinese supermodel but she is really dirty like she was just been uprooted out of the earth.

''Hey!''

I said spreading a fake smile.

''You just got here?'' she asked pointing out to our apartment.

"No! 6 years ago!''

I answered, shocking my head but how in the world did she got here or did she cross the brook!

but that is weird

"How did you get here?''

I asked with a confused face, she smiled a little

I swear that smile is really charming....

"What's your name?''

she asked calmly and I could see her smile again.

Is she trying to charm me with her smile under spell!

She just ignored my questions and my questioning face.

''Anne and yours?''

''Angela...''

''Woww!"

''It really suit a beautiful girl like you!'' I commented

''Yeah thanks!'' she said smiling

I moved closer to her

''But why are you like this?'' I questioned again, I don't care if my questions is just too much

''Hmm got sucked in mud..'' she said with a grin.

''And that bow is it for you?'' she asked pointing to the bow in my hand.

''Hmm Nope! I found it in this garden the day we got here so I took it'' I explained plainly.

She nodded before continuing

''You guys have neighbours?''

''Yep! where are yo.....''

''Anneeee!'' I was interrupted

That's the voice of my brother.

''Am coming!! I gotta go now! See you around later!'' I said before running outside the garden but I turned to lock the garden gate.

She stood still, she really look messy and stinking but I couldn't smell it when I was with her but now she is really smelling bad that I had to cover my nose with my palm.

"Do you live around??" I asked curiously.

" Yes! I live here" she answered pointing to Lucas apartment.

"Huh!!" I blinked in bewilderment.

* * *

''Where have you been?'' my two bloody brother asked at the same time.

Pete and Brady.

I shock my head and I sat on the puff in front of them.

''Been to the hood man!'' I answered, acting carefree, I know they are trying to get me to explain what happened in school today.

''Lucas really fuck up big time but am goonna treat his ass soon, just freak it off sis'' Brady said rubbing my hair.

''Am not a kid!'' I yanked and I slapped his hand off my hair.

''I wanna ruin a newly hair wash!'' Brady joked before jumping on the couch

''Ruin your b*tt a**hole!'' I said and rolled my eyes while Pete stand there looking at us.

''Me a**hole?''

''Ask my palm again!'' I said raising my hand and rolling my eyes again

Brady scoffs before laughing

''Anne... promise me now that you aren't gonna do anything with that heck again '' Pete said, finally,

I looked up at him and I smiled

''Funny.... N. A Never Again!'' I said raising a f**k up sign with my middle finger

He smiled and sat beside me.

''Trust you sis! I hate to see you getting hurt, he is just a jerk, am sure you would've cry the hell out?'' he said with a smirk

''Yeah of course!''

I said looking at him emotionally.

''I don't why I love you Pete!'' I joked and he laughed a little before pulling me into a brotherly hug.

''Aww see my cuties!''

I heard my mum voice and I pulled away from Suck-Up hug and I ran to my mum.

''Mum! Welcome home! I missed you..."

Lucas's

.

''Lucas! come and give the Carrs' this cupcake!'' my mum called

I am in my study room I couldn't stop imagining how Pete reacted to me in school.

That was awkward because of the childish prank I played on her.

.

I stood up and walked to the kitchen

''Take cupcake to The Carrs''' My mum ordered and I picked it up

I really miss my sister, she should be the one doing this.

I shrugged and accept my fate.

.

Anne's

''She was really dirty! and stinking! and damned beautiful, her eyes is just like that of Lucas! dazzling amazingly!'' I emphasized on how explained my encounter with Angela to my brothers, it got Brady when i said she was just like his age mate and beautiful as well.

''I know she is gonna be beautiful if her eyes is just like Lucas'' Pete jested

''That's not funny!'' I blurted before eyeing him

.

Lucas's

.

I stand at their front door, looking eagerly at the door like I want to push the door of hell and drop the cupcake and get the gel out of there! I could hear their laughs, they are all having a nice time, I heard one of them mentioned my name, that is Pete, I moved closer to the doorknob to listen to their conversation well but I shock it off

I breathed in and out before knocking the door.

Within a twinkle of eyes, it was opened by Pete, he was surprised when he saw me he turned his head backward.

''Let's see what we have here'' he said nudging his head forward and two other appeared in front me.

One glaring at like a lion which is about to devour it prey!

One staring at me like I fell from the sky!

And one eating the cupcakes in my hand with her eyes!

Anne's look is completely different, it was like nothing happened to her, I felt a guilty and like apologizing to her but I can't do that I have to man up and maintain my pride.

''Cupcakes for ya from my mum'' I said with a smirk on my face

''Hmm cupcakes Anne....!'' Pete said acting as if he did not know me, the three of them shared a confusing glare before facing and Anne started

''Cupcakes they're gonna be delicious and yummy.....'' she said and picked up one out of the five cupcakes, I was really confused because I don't understood what she just stated, she faced me completely and smiled

''When grounded on your face!'' she said before I could guess what's she meant.

She slammed the cake on my face and I could hear her brothers laughing hard and loud

''Payback time!'' Brady said and laughed

''Catch ya!'' Peye added

''Thanks for the cupcakes!'' Anne said and I heard the door slammed against my face.
