Alisha pov
I'm as soaked as a wet cat. I'm still standing at the door and planning in my head how to sneak in. If I get caught like this, I don't want to imagine the scolding I will get. Dad and Adrian will be home soon. I need to go to my room asap.
I peered inside and looked around to spot Mom, but I didn't find her. Lucky for me, the road is clear. I have to run straight into my room.
As per the plan, I ran, but just as I was about to climb the stairs, I heard Mom calling me from behind. I stood on the lower stairs and closed my eyes. Damn it, the mission failed.
I opened my eyes and slowly turned around like a child who got caught stealing chocolate. And I got to meet with an angry mom who was throwing glares at me.
"I'm home, Mom," I said, flashing all of my white teeth.
She sighed as if to control her anger and said,
"How many times have I told you not to get wet in the rain?" Countless times.
