Chapter 18 - Paranoia

Regina was walking back and forth consecutive times already. The maids are worried that Regina would hurt them at any moment now so they hurried to get away.

Eula is the only one who is nice to the workers at the mansion; she even remembers their Birthdays, asks how they are doing, how their family is at home when they are gone working, ,and even asks them to get check ups at the hospital she owns.

Most of the maids stay since the salary is high but the stress and physical abuse they're receiving is intolerable.

Those who can't take anymore abuse resigned and signed a non-disclosure agreement. So they cannot reveal anything that happens inside the Mansion before they receive their last salary.

Eula also apologizes to them, she didn't know about the non-disclosure agreement, she already talked about it to his father but he declined to remove it.

Rose can't help but to look at her twin, she is also bored that they cannot even go outside the mansion.

SOFIA! Your Crazy and Abnormal! screamed by Regina. She always called her older sister Sofia.

She really loved to annoy me! again and again!

I hate her!

I hate her!

Rose was startled and even dropped the wine glass and stained the creamed color carpet turned into the dark hue of purple.

Where is she now Rose? Rose doesn't know where the hell Sofia goes so she really can't answer her.

Where is Mom? What is she doing?

The only thing Rose can say is,

I don't know and look straight into Regina's eyes

You're really Useless! Regina said while holding a vase and throwing it on the wall.

Everyone is Useless! She keeps on getting anything that could be smashed and throws it one by one the crashing sound makes the maids scared because at any time they might be the one Regina would use her force to.

Regina starts to also grab the paintings on the wall that Jenny buys without thinking. Everyone knows that only Eula can stop her even their mother Jenny can't stop Regina from her outbursts like this.

Stop it Regina you need to relax, You're pregnant right now so you should be careful with that Regina started to regain her composure.

Rose knows that her twin has anger issues. She's really like their mother Jenny. She also acts like this whenever she gets mad at anything. She won't stop until she cannot vent out her madness.

If I knew that it would be like this I would just go out of the house and go to Twilight's, I might enjoy this day partying with my friends. Rose just murmured a bit.

And Lloyd came down the stairs without a care in the world, he heard the sounds but he knows it the usual outburst hearing that it's from Regina he just didn't care anymore.

His older sister's exception to Eula are really not normal beings it their parents fault, since they were born they were unfortunate to have parents like Jenny and Judas.

He was not addicted to drugs before he just found escape to his family when he's using drugs. His sister Eula has always been the one who tried to help him, she even went to Recreational Activity Session with him she often would cancel important business matters to be with him.

Eula was always present in his life since he can remember, he just can't take his family entirely. Lloyd was the only male in the siblings; the expectations drowned him and pulled him to the abyss to the point that he doesn't know how to return.

He was always disappointed in his father and mother, the one who stood by him and tried to save him was Eula. 

He often cried to Eula when he was a child for almost everything Eula taught him to have patience, to be humble and others.

Lloyd remembers a time where he was bullied at school since he was a little bit chubbier than his siblings, his own older sister didn't help him Eula which his half sister protected him.

Stop calling Lloyd "A Pig" Eula was flushed red due to anger.

I already called the principal. Let's wait for your parents Eula added.

Eula always sees Lloyd on the ground. His clothes were in total ruin and it was dirty, whenever those kids bully him.

He remembers how Eula hugged him at that time. Wipe your eyes and nose Eula gives Lloyd her Hanky.

Do you want to learn how to protect yourself, little brother? Eula asked him.

He answered Yes , big sister!

Eula personally enrolled Lloyd to a martial arts school and even went to exercise with him if she was not busy with school work and how to manage the company.

Lloyd bonded more with Eula than his other siblings, Eula even taught him how to play musical instruments. His other sister had a tutor for that but for him he was never given that opportunity. Since his parents focused more on things that made them happy and forget that he existed he rebelled but Eula was still looking forward for Lloyd to change. He was the only one who Eula believed since his brother just needed understanding not an additional pressure.

Eula let him do whatever he wanted as long as he could handle the consequences of his actions.Eula knows that Lloyd is just enjoying being carefree.

But Eula became disappointed when she found out that Lloyd's took illegal drugs she even confronted him and asked him to stop using drugs instead of listening to her sister Lloyd was dragged by peer pressure and his problems at home.

Eula even goes far by bringing her sibling to the rehab center, not just Lloyd but everyone of their siblings, Jenny stops Eula and says she should not care about what they do. She also asked Eula to stop meddling with their own family affairs which hurt Eula the most.

Jenny didn't think twice and slapped Eula in front of the mansion workers, she is the Madam of the house not Eula.

Lloyd stops Jenny from hurting Eula, he knows that Jenny loves to release her anger by hurting someone or breaking a lot of things at home.

Jenny started venting her anger to the maids and even Lloyd who's trying to stop her, She left a huge scratch on Lloyd's face then she stop for a couple of minutes and continue to hurt the maids.

For Jenny they will just be replaced anyway that's why she is free to do whatever she wants inside the mansion since she was the madam of the house.

You're pathetic and crazy, Mother said Lloyd was losing his patience already.

Lloyd thinks that Paranoia is really in their blood when he sees how all of her parents and sister act.

Only Eula is normal and she is a person that he should be copying or looking up to but he doesn't know how to change.

Can he change?

Can he be given another chance?

Would he choose to unlearn his bad habits?

Will he be able to make Eula proud of him again?

Lloyd doesn't know where his sister is; he just prays that she is safe and coping well.

He stills knows how to pray and call on to God, Eula is the one who instills that he must never forget to believe in God's presence.

Eula always says to him if do not believe in people anymore, my Little brother believes in God's Salvation and Love for you.

His sister always asked him to go to church with her, he goes to church every saturday or sunday and whenever he wanted to release his hardship he asked God to pull him out in his current situation.

He prayed for his sister Eula's well being and prayed that she still continue to not give up on their family despite what they all did to her, he knows he didn't deserve to have her in his life but he is thankful for Eula's presence and warmth.

The Three sisters of his was already a mental institution patients plus including their parents the can all be admitted to mental hospital as well.

For Lloyd his father is not a great example at all.

He knows that in his sister's heart he will always be her only younger brother.
