It was seven in the morning, it was good no one came to wake me up, at least the timing of waking up was not bad compared to the other mornings, thanks to this royalty hard rock they call bed.
I got out of bed and stretched my arms and limbs, I looked through the mirror opposite me I looked like I got run over by a bus, my hair was messy and my nighty top had rolled up.
I got into the bathroom took my shower and did what was needed, I came out of the bathroom with a towel draped around me and another one in my hands drying my wet hair, I went to the closet to pick out what to wear. I brought out a big oversized shirt that reached below my thigh and a pair of black mini shorts.
I took a glance at myself in the mirror one would think I wasn't wearing anything under the cause of how big the shirt looked on me, but well the mansion is too big before anyone can spot me, not that I care anyway.
I applied a lip ban on my lip then packed my hair into a rough bund. My thoughts drifted to my dreams yesterday, it was a dream but still, it felt so real, it had been five years now, but I still miss my mom dearly, having dreams of us was not common it just happened sometimes, maybe it was because I was coming to the mansion, I assumed.
I hear a knock on my door, bringing me out of my thoughts. " yes, come in" I said to whoever it was at the door.
A girl came in, she looked my age or even younger with her face facing downwards and her thick brown hair that was properly packed, she was also new since I didn't know her neither did I see her when I came. "Good morning Miss Smith, um..... You will have to come downstairs for breakfast". She said smiling
"Sure I will come down right away" I was really hungry and I could hear my tummy grumbling. "And one more thing please don't call me Miss I prefer Kelly," I said hoping she wouldn't call me Miss, "I'm not used to it and it kind of makes me feel uneasy," I added.
"I'm sorry if it makes you feel uneasy but I can't do what you ask of me". she said feeling guilty.
"OK fine, how about you call me by my name when we are alone, at least you could do that". I said waiting for her reply.
"Uhm ok then I will call you by your name only when we are alone," she said after thinking about it for a while.
"OK then, so what's your name?"
" It's Suzanne" she said feeling a bit comfortable.
"uhm I have to go now," she said then turned to leave.
"nice to meet you Suzanne" I said and she turned around to face me and nodded with a smile on her face.
I got out of my room for breakfast and on getting close to the dining room I could hear Debbie's voice, as soon as she saw me the room suddenly fell silent, and her facial expression changed like she had seen her worst night mear, I could feel her throwing daggers at me, she was carefully watching my every step like a predator about to ambush his prey as I walked passed her.
I pulled my chair and adjusted it sitting opposite her, there were other two people in the dining room a guy and a girl who I am guessing were Debbie's friends. the room was still silent making it even more awkward until the maids came and started serving our breakfast, I thanked those who attended to me, and when they were done only the sound of plate and spoon clicking together was heard, and the atmosphere was tense.
"so the Princess finally decided to come out of her tower" Debbie finally spoke in an annoying tone as she stabbed her stack before she chewed it.
I ignored her and kept eating not really in the mode to talk.
" Seems someone has also gone deaf being locked up" she exclaims like she was shocked. "Debbie!!" the girls close to her called her out for her behaviour towards me. "what!!". Debbie replied rolling her eyes. I sign in annoyance knowing is the old topical Debbie who will always taunt me at any given cost.
" Hi, I'm Sarah," the girl said waving her hands.
"Kelly". I waved quickly not giving any room for further conversation, while the other guy just kept quiet and kept on eating.
" There is no point introducing yourself, she's a freak" Debbie lashed out angrily looking at Serah.
"There is a thing called table manners Debbie but since you so much want to hear me talk there you go you won, happy?". I finally spoke and gave up on my not to give in.
she clenched her fist in frustration and left the dining angrily as the male guy followed her to calm her down. I chuckled and shook my head at her reaction "Never gets old" I said in my thoughts.
Serah just kept on smiling at me nervously.
I finished eating a while ago, and I was now in my room, I called Nana early letting her know I was fine we chatted for a while before I ended the call, and as always she told me to stay out of trouble as usual. staring at my room ceiling my phone beeped, I got up to see who sent me a message.
Daddy
"Hi Kell, I know I didn't show up as promised, but expect me soon. Love you".
I signed in defeat, not like I was expecting him to show up any time soon.
My mind drifted to what happened during breakfast, I don't know why Debbie saw the pleasure of harassing me, it has always been l like that between us I can't think of anything I did wrong to her in the past, I don't like hurting her but she pushes me too much living me with no choice. I kept on thinking about other things not knowing what to do in a big mansion like this.
