My name is Kiara Landon, and I am sixteen; I'm also the prettiest girl you'd ever meet. Why? I guess it's because I'm mixed. Mum is Indian, while Dad is Russian. It's funny how two entirely different countries got entangled, right?
Well, back to myself, I've got this lush, very long, black curly hair which I got from Mom, and my lashes are long as well. I got my white milkshake flawless skin from Mom as well, dimples from Dad, olive green eyeballs from Dad, and the last thing I'm still wondering where I got from anyone is my height.
My Mom, Dad and my brother Kenzie are tall and I get to bring short. That's unfair. Anyway, Kenzie is my big brother who's eighteen and is going to college soon. Did I tell you I'm in eleventh grade?
"Kia," A voice said from my door and without looking I knew it was my brother.
"It's Kiara!" I found myself yelling back at him even though I knew he would never take the correction.
"Get your lazy ass downstairs; it's morning devotion time," Kenzie ordered, and I groaned. My parents were devout Christians and they were so keen on having a devotion as a family each morning.
Our devotion was easy because we would sing a hymn, pray and then disperse, not without Mom giving me Kenzie verses of the bible to study. I never studied mine, and I was sure Kenzie didn't, too.
With a sigh, I put on my flip-flops and made my way downstairs to meet Kenzie seated on my favourite armchair while Mom was nowhere to be found.
"Where's Mom," I asked; Kenzie ignored me, probably because he had his eyes fixed on his phone.
"Kenzie..." I called again, this time tugging at his sleeves. He looked up at me, frowning.
"Don't give me that look. I left my bed to come downstairs and meet you. Where's Mom?" I folded my arms.
"Mum and Dad left earlier. Emergency at the hospital. But Mom ordered to do the devotion."
I almost forgot to say my parents are doctors and they own a hospital. Right now, I'm happy. With Mom and Dad gone, no devotion today.
"Get off my seat," I said remembering Kenzie and his schemes. He smiled and got off without a word. That's so unlike him.
"Where are you going?" I followed him,
"Going to get ready to hang out with my friends. You've got anything planned out today?"
"Not really, but I could have a sleepover in Dani's house. Kristine is coming so you don't have to worry about me." I smiled; Kenzie rolled his eyes, making me giggle.
"So what do you say? About the sleepover?" I said, blinking cutely.
"Eww, no!" Kenzie said making a sour face at me.
"What? Mum said I could go for a sleepover whenever I wanted as long as Kristine is going with me."
"And Mom isn't here, I am. And with that motherfucker there, you aren't allowed to go."
"His name is Angelo!!!" I glared at Kenzie.
"You think I don't know?" Kenzie asked, and I was fuming right now. But I had to act smartly, things weren't going the way I had planned.
"Kenzie, please... I'm not going there because of him. I just want to have fun with Dani." I pouted a little my eyes were starting to get teary.
And that was indeed my brother's weakness. He hated seeing tears on my face. He ruffled his hair looking defeated.
"Fine, you'll go, but promise me if that man whore tries anything funny with you, you'll tell me,"
I nodded immediately. "I promise," I said.
"Good. He wouldn't wanna mess with my sister or else, I'll cut off his balls. Fuck! I'm late,"
Kenzie left me to get ready. After showering and getting dressed, I hurriedly packed a few clothes and essentials into a duffel bag, and I trudged outside to meet Kenzie, attending to his car.
"You ready?" He asked.
"Yeah, I'm so excited. This weekend is gonna be lit," I smiled dreamily getting in the same car as Kenzie.
So I haven't said why Kenzie and Angelo don't get along. Have I ever told you guys who Angelo is? Well here are the details.
Dani is my best friend while Kristine is my cousin. Dani is Russian, the same age as me but a bit taller, while Kristine is also Russian; she's Kenzie's age, and she's taller than both me and Dani.
Although Kristine is older, I love the fact that she enjoys hanging out with us. She's our plug for advice on boys, sex, drugs and relationships.
Kristine currently has two boyfriends and according to her, she's not a virgin anymore. It's because of Kristine that I noticed Angelo.
Angelo is Dani's older brother and he's hot and handsome in a way that would leave you gawking. He has this blonde curly hair that looks like he has just rolled out of bed.
His eyes are cute, and his lips are so pinkish; I know everything about Angelo, thanks to Dani. It's not as if I ask her, but whenever she unknowingly says a thing her brother likes or dislikes, I never forget to write it down in my diary.
The sudden tap on my shoulder jolts me out of my reverie. "Get down," Kenzie said. I nodded taking off my seat belt and grabbing my duffel bag.
"Take care of yourself; I love you," Kenzie muttered as soon as I got down.
"I love you too," I blew him a kiss. He smiled before driving away and I was left alone, in front of Dani's gate.
"Bestie!" Dani yelled as soon as she sighted me from the stairs. We hugged, not wanting to let go. "I was so scared, thought you wouldn't be coming over. Where's K?" Dani asked, she had taken my bag from my hands.
"I think she'll come later. So... tell me. Are you alone at home?" I asked stylishly, wanting to know if Angelo was around.
"Nope. My brother is in his room... sleeping." Dani replied, she set my bag in her room and pulled me into her closet to have a change of clothes.
Dani made me wear a sky-blue knitted dress, which left my whole back and waistline bare and stopped at my mid-thighs. She then braided my hair, so my bare back would be visible.
"I just want you to be comfortable," She whispered into my ears. "We are making breakfast together," she said as we walked to the kitchen.
"Babes!!!" A dramatic Kristine entered.
"K!" Dani smiled. They hugged, and Kristine hugged me as well.
"You look... spicy," Kristine smiled, and I stared down at my dress.
"Uh... It was Dani's idea." I said, a blush on my cheek.
"Way to go, Dani." They high-fived each other.
"What are we making?" I asked absentmindedly.
"Well... Angelo didn't have anything to eat for dinner last night so I figured out we make him breakfast." Dani replied she went ahead to grab a tin of milk, eggs, flour and a tin of sardines from the refrigerator.
"That's nice. But why did he not eat last night?" Kristine asked.
"He arrived late from practice since he was tired..."
"He must have been so tired..." I said, Kristine smirked at my words.
"He was... so why don't we finish this up quickly so Kiara can serve him his meal."
"Me?" I looked up from the carrots I was dicing.
"You think I don't know you have a crush on my brother?" Dani smiled. Heat crept up to my cheeks, but I kept my composure by feigning ignorance.
"I do not have a crush on your brother," I managed to say, my eyes glued to the carrots.
"Oh yeah! And as a good friend, Dani is gonna set you up with her brother. Right, Dani?" Kristine turned to give Dani a look.
"Right," Dani nodded.
"Girls I..."
"No! This is for your good. Many girls will die to spend time with Angelo. But he's yours, so here's a cup of coffee,"
"What do I do with it?" I asked,
"Dummy! Give it to him," Kristine said, nudging me.
"But Angelo doesn't take coffee," The words were out of my mouth before I realized. Kristine and Dani exchanged glances.
"How do you know my brother doesn't take coffee?"
"Uh... You once said so," My voice was inaudible now as I clutched to the handle of the mug of coffee.
"That was since sixth grade Kiara. You've had a thing for Angelo since then?" Kristine's eyes were wide as saucers but she laughed.
"Well, serve him tea then."
My legs were wobbly as I placed a knock on Angelo's door. No answer! I knocked again and when it seemed no one would answer, I pushed the door open.
On a bed was my Angelo, thrusting his full length into a girl's hole as his hands pressed her mounds. They were having sex! And I was watching real-life porn.
The teacup fell from my hands, crashing to the floor and starting the two busy people.
"What the fuck are you doing here?" Angelo yelled the moment he saw me standing at the door. My eyes teared up immediately as I tried to find the right words to explain myself.
"Get out, Samira," He said; the girl he was screwing a while ago nodded, and she began getting dressed. That's when I noticed the girl was in a maid's uniform.
My eyes met with Angelo's, and I went on my knees, gathering the broken pieces of the cup into my hands. "Leave!" I heard him say but I pretended not to hear.
"You don't have to... You'll hurt yourself," he said louder this time.
"Why do you care?" I said under my breath.
"Kiara!"
Gosh! I had to look up at him, I never knew he knew my name. Angelo put on his briefs, and then he walked to me.
"Do you want to get hurt?" He asked,
"It's not as if you care, stay away from me." I blurted out, tears slipping out of my eyes. I hadn't meant to get emotional but I couldn't get the scene from earlier away.
Angelo, the same guy I had a crush on, sleeping with a maid? It sounded so disgusting and I was deeply hurt. I hurriedly gathered the fragments of the tea cup and I ran out of his room.
Angelo's POV
Last night, I arrived late from hanging out with my friends, and I refused to have dinner, not because I was tired like I had told a worried Dani, but because I had lots of plans to make.
In a game of truth or dare, Jace, had dared me to make the most innocent and naive girl in school fall for me and cruelly break her heart.
We all knew who the award for being naive would go to. Kiara Landon! The chick is pretty as hell but she's never had a boyfriend. Alright, that doesn't make her naive but she's still so small and innocent and... foolish?
I had known her since she was six. She and Dani have been friends since they were kids. I never refused a dare, not when the guys were there.
And I wanted to piss Kenzie off also, so I agreed to do so. My first plan was to organize a party and bribe Dani to invite her knowing that if I did invite her myself, her brother would never let her come.
Now tell me what she's doing in my room. She saw me fucking Samira... The cook's daughter, alright! And I didn't mean to, but I yelled at her, which I guess brought tears to her eyes.
I chuckled. Just yelling at her made her cry... I wonder how she would cry when I was done with my dare. I walked to my wardrobe, pulled out an armless sweater, and threw it on my body, ready to begin my mission when I heard giggles, from downstairs.
My curtains were slightly open so I looked to see who it was. Dani, Kristine and Kiara were at the pool. Dani and Kristine were in their bikini, and they were inside the pool while Kiara was in a baggy T-shirt that barely covered anything.
She had a drink in her hand as she watched her friends with a bored look. Jace's dare was the only thing I could think of and I inhaled before closing my curtain and leaving my room.
"Kiara... Come on," Dani screamed at Kiara, motioning for her to come join me in the pool.
"Nah, I'm good," Kiara muttered. She smiled and looked up, but her smile died immediately. She saw me standing beside the chair she sat on.
"Hey Angelo, how you doing?" Kristine asked.
"I'm good. Uh... Girls, can I borrow your friend for a while?" I asked, my eyes fixed on Kiara's surprised face.
"No, no, no, no," She shook her head vigorously.
"Kiara..."
"Yeah Angelo, You can. She's all yours." Kristine got out of the pool. It took me all my composure not to gawk at Kristine's body in her bikini as she pulled Kiara up.
"It's your chance, baby cuz. Don't ruin it," I heard her whisper to Kiara. Kiara shot her a glare but she looked up at me, no smile, no frown... Nothing.
