Chapter 61 - Discovery

Aunty sophia please help me with my hair, make it look very stylish, so that charles will be amazed. He's always bragging about his perfect hair. I can't lose to him on such a special occasion.

Sure! Right this way sir! She giggled as she directed to seat before the mirror. She touched his hair and it was a bit damp, so she decided to dry it out first.

While drying his hair, little tim took the opportunity to look at his stylist, she looked gorgeous with her hair in bold braids. He had never seen her with bold braids.

You're pretty aunty sophia! He smiled catching her off guard.

She blushed, thank you.

They giggled as she continued her work. With some minutes gone she was almost done with his hair.

Click: a young man with a white polo shirt, blue jean pants and a sport can opened the door, His usual laid back gelled hair was changed to a messy bang making him look young, cool and stylish.

Jason found the two of them, giggling and discussing. Sophia turned to look at the him making his heart pound. Her eyes, he remembered when he first saw those eyes, he asked kylie about her but she refused to talk. Now there it was again, she looked enchanting.

Coughs! Birthday boy it's time your friends are here. You both look great. well I rarely see you in such casual clothes mr jason you look cool, she winked. Thank you! He smiled.

Little tim jumped down from the chair, he was ready to show off to his friends. They all walked out of the house together.

Timothy my man! Happy birthday! Charles was the first to pounce on him. Argh! I can't breathe charles. Oh sorry he moved back a little. Wow dude you look amazing, how did your hair end up so sleek.

Hmph! I'm glad you noticed, it's aunty Sophia's work. He lifted his chin high with a bit of arrogance.

Charles looked around and spotted sophia he ran up to her and gave her a bear hug. She was completely shocked, when she noticed who almost made her fall she bent down and returned the hug.

Charles it's been a while! How have you been? You look dashing!

As do you milady, he took a bow before her.

Sophia rolled her eyes, such a drama queen she thought! Little tim rushed over immediately, keep your paws off.

Woah calm down bro, I just wanted to say hi to her that's all.

Little tim didn't care as he dragged him off to meet the others.

Sophia looked around and was a bit shocked, all the guests had arrived but the party was a bit strange for her, the kids were so sophisticated, some were sitting, some stood with a class of juice engaging in conversations. Is this really a kids birthday party? She thought.

Based on her experiences it's supposed to be wild with kids running here and there playing and enjoying themselves, instead they were so stiff.

Sigh! She decided to sit for a while since she wasn't familiar with anyone here.

Two girls later walked up to her, it's been a while sophia, you're not looking bad. She looked at them for a while... Oh right! Charles's sisters. How are you guys doing? she smiled! They exchanged some pleasantries before going back to their seat.

Sophia decided to play with her phone before the event would begin. Gasps...... She heard a lot whispers around she quickly lifted her head to see what was happening.

It turned out to be matilda making an entrance. She wore a cute round neck floral lace beaded royal blue short dress with heels, her long hair was parted into curles, she applied a light makeup with red lipstick, making her look like a fairy.

She was extremely pretty, sophia was stunned, wow what a beauty. She walked over to meet jason, he smiled and whispered something to her making her smile shyly. sophia couldn't make out what they were saying. Sigh! What a nice couple.

11:00 the party officially started with Zack as the M.C, he started out by welcoming the guest giving funny punch lines in between. Sophia decided to talk to him after the party to consider changing his career cuz he was really good at hosting.

After the introductions a big screen lit up and a light music started playing, soon cute baby pictures appeared. Aww..... So cute.... Was the only thing that was heard as the photos changed slowly. As Sophia stared at little tim's baby photo she remembered the cartoon 'boss baby' he looked like the real version of those cute babies.

Soon the pics changed to a short clip, da...da...da... He was speaking Gibberish as nanny zo was encouraging him to take his first step. Aww ... They were overfeed with a lot of cuteness. Soon pictures of him and Jason appeared they both wore a tux, they looked dashing making everyone smile. next was his pics in school, awards and presentations, next was him and Charles with a smug look on his face.

The throwback scene finally came to an end.

Then to spice things up; let's have a competition.

Sophia was excited she liked going for kids parties cuz it was fun watching children trying to things for themselves. She thought it would be a race, dress up, dance, playing catch or something but to her surprise it was a show of intelligence. Oh! You've got to be kidding me, she snapped.

She looked around to see if there'll be anyone who'd feel the same way, but they'll seemed to be happy. She signed helplessly and watched the show go on.

Soon it was time to cut the cake and take pictures with the celebrant. The blue cake was brought to the center and little tim stood behind the table, his little hands held the knife.

Say cheese! Swoosh he cut the cake. Yeah! Followed by a round of applause. He went on to greet the guests with Jason and matilda.

Sophia suddenly remembered something, she went into the house and went straight to the kitchen. Ah! Thankfully her favorite snack was still available.

She finished it and then went back to the "party". They were still taking pictures, little tim gessured for her to come over. She went over and stood next to him. She felt his little hands slide into hers, looking into his eyes all she saw was innocence and acceptance. She smiled back lovingly and click.... The shot was taken, capturing a beautiful moment.

The party was slowly coming to an end and what better way to end the party than with presents. A huge chair was brought and little was made to sit on it. He sat there like an emperor waiting for his people to bestow him with gifts.

A lot of people came with different things. From expensive toys to expensive trips in different parts of the world.

Happy birthday Timothy! I wish you happiness, a huge limited edition ranger was placed before him. His chin dropped, uncle jason you bought it for me.

Mm....

You... I thought you weren't listening when I told you about it. Little Tim was shocked that Jason took what he liked seriously.

Well I did Jason smiled..

Thank you uncle jason.

Omg! Is that the limited edition lone ranger, my dad tried to get it but he couldn't, it's incredible. A little boy spoke as he was fascinated by the ranger, it was as huge as them. It could play out any scene from the lone rangers movie. Wow it's amazing Tim, the boys quickly surrounded him.

Some girls gave him chocolates, toy cars, flowers, cards..... He thanked them.

Matilda gave him a card it was an all expense paid trip to horiland! which was a very luxurious and expensive place for children, a lot of kids could only fantasize about going there.

This is indeed awesome thanks aunt matilda. As long as you like it Timothy! She smiled.

Intially Sophia felt it was the thought that mattered but after seeing such incredible and expensive gifts, she gulped hard. I'll just give it to him later. Just as she was trying to sneak out, she felt little hands holding her, she turned and saw little Tim, looking at her with lovely expecting eyes.

As the celebrant of the show all eyes were naturally on him, those eyes were now naturally on Sophia. She shivered a little, she just hated attention being on her.

Well I guess I'll just have to give it to you now, I wanted to wait till your party was over, but it's not bad giving it now. She opened her hand a little silver chip was seen.

Little Tim picked it up with a puzzled look on his face, what's this? He asked. Sophia smiled mysteriously, how about you go check it out!

Okay, little tim quickly ran to the technical room, he came out and stood before the big screen to see what was on the flash.

A soft music began playing, with and animation following. It was a comedy about a little prince that saved a little stylist. It was a story of how they met and became friends, in the end the little prince and the little stylist became friends.

Aww ...... Everyone thought it was cute but how could little Tim not understand, he ran to Sophia and gave her the warmest hug ever. They snuggled together for a while before they separated.

Well.... Some people still felt the gift was still just plain but they kept it to themselves but they couldn't hide the looks on their faces. Little Tim didn't care at all that was the best gift he had gotten. I love it aunty sophia, thank you.

Oh! But thats not the end! What! He was surprised. What's next? He asked.... Immediately he finished speaking another background music began...

Oh My God! Don't tell me! The boys around quickly paid attention..... Is that Megatron 5! The best new game and only a few people in the country had it. How did she get it.

Little Tim turned to look at her with his eyeballs almost popping out. Happy birthday Sir Timothy! She smiled at him. Little Tim jumped up and down with joy, he gave her a little peck on her cheek. You're the best! He quickly ran towards the screen with other children accompanying him. Timothy! Can your pretty sis be ours too? There was excitement everywhere.

Woah! Calm down guys we can't just share our sister with you! Well you have to make proposals and send them to me and I'll consider if you are eligible. Timothy was speechless, when did she become ''our sister''. He rolled his eyes as usual. Charles was way ahead of himself.

Finally the party came to an end, no matter how mature they acted they were still just kids, after playing, dancing and eating a lot of kids got tired some even began to sleep. Parents carried their kids they greeted Jason and began to leave. Little Tim stood by the door with Jason to see them off, he yawned and rubbed his eyes.

Go in Tim! It's obvious that you're sleepy! Jason warned. Mm... He walked towards sophia, who picked him up, immediately he head rested on her shoulders he fell asleep. She took him upstairs and laid him down, covering him properly before going out.

Zack was still talking with some guests, jason and matilda with nanny zo and others were cleaning she walked over to help them. It's okay Sophia you've done enough, just sit and rest I'll drop you off, jason spoke.

Few minutes passed and he was done cleaning. Let's go! Goodbye she waved and joined him in the car. Thanks a lot! Timothy has changed a lot since he met you.

Nah! It's okay, she looked out the window. The car fell silent. They passed by a park which was beautifully lit, with neon lights, she smiled and then began to imagine, then she sneaked a pick at the guy by her side, she had to admit that he was indeed very good looking and she loved pretty faces, too bad ...... She smiled and looked out again. Jason turned to look at her, she was clearly lost in thought which happened quite often, so he didn't bother her.

.......

Few weeks had passed and Sophia was getting ready to go to school, she smiled as she imagined a whole new life waiting for her. She spoke to Kylie recently and they both had high expectations.

Lunch hour she decided to go to the café close to the company. After getting a sweet cappuccino, she decided to take a stroll before heading back, when a black luxurious vehicle with tinted glass blocked her way, in few seconds she was surrounded, wait how did I end up here. The scene looked like an MIA movie she watched, she thought she was dreaming till she heard a cold and hard voice.

Come in! Eh! She felt like she didn't understand English anymore.

I said come in! She stood spaced out that she didn't even realize when she was pushed in.

Inside the vehicle was quite dark and cold, she sat next to a man giving off cold vibes. She looked at him very closely. Why does this face look at little familiar.

Ah ha! She guessed it!

It didn't take you long to realize, he chuckled, his voice was a bit hoarse was very stern.

Anyway I don't have all the time in the world so I'll go straight to the point. Stay away from Timothy! He threw some photos to her. It was his birthday party when they took pictures together and so on......

What why? She couldn't understand. But doesn't this seem a bit weird? She asked.

He frowned, what do you mean?

I mean usually it's ladies but some times men. But they usually warn to stay away from their kid when they are in a relationship and offer them something but this is just weird.

You're barely even human why should I bother with all that. Anyway I gotten what I want if not you won't even be able to get close to him. I hope I've made myself clear, you won't like to find out what would happen if you go against me.

It's not like I'm holding you son or something I didn't do anything wrong so.....

Get out! He interrupted her.

.......

Where's Sophia? Matilda asked

she stepped out to get coffee, joy replied. Okay tell her to come to Jason's office immediately.

Okay ma!

She smiled and went back to Jason's office, but didn't go in immediately, after a while she quickly drooped something between the doors and walked in.

Sophia walked back to the office in a daze. What a mean guy! I'm barely even human! How could he say such a thing? Even if we are not of the same social status, that doesn't mean he could say such things. Sigh! Little Tim! What should I do?

Sophia....Sophia..... Joy called but she didn't respond, she walked to her and poked her a little. Sophia what's always on your mind, it's like you're always in a another world.... Anyway! Miss matilda said you should go the bosses office.

Oh! Okay

.....

You know initially I was bit upset! About how you let sophia with zero qualification and experience work here. But now I understand why! But why didn't you tell me Jason?

Jason whose head was buried in loads of documents, looked up! What do you mean?

I know that Sophia is the child that was used for that experiment. And I know that everyone have been looking for her and you found her first. Even her meeting Timothy was also a plan to get her on your side right.

Bang! Sophia's phone fell.
