I woke up with a door slamming hard. I almost jumped out of bed. I checked the time and it was 8:10 am. I slowly turned around and snuggled into my sheets when I heard loud music playing.

I am not a morning person. I hate waking up early especially on weekends. If I can get a change to sleep I will.

I stood up and headed towards the room with the loud music playing in. I knocked loudly on the door. When I was about to pound on the door it swing open.

Masion stood in the doorway. Sweat dripping of his hair. He didn't had a shirt on so my eyes roamed over his nice abbs. His chest heavily falled up and down. I then realized that I hadn't spoken a word but instead checked him out.

"What?!!" He shouted in a harsh tone. I flinched at his tone and took a step back.

"Can you maybe turn your music a little down." I asked in a nervous voice. I looked down didn't want to look him in the eyes.

He didn't say a word and instead slammed the door in my face. Well that was rude I thought.

"Good morning Emily. I didn't knew you are one to woke up so early." Alison said with a basket of dirty clothes.

"I am not." I said before walking back to my room.

"I am going to do the laundry. Is there anything you want me to wash for you?"She asked with a smile.

I gathered my clothes on the floor and went to give it for her. She throw it in the basket with all the other clothes.

" I am going to make some pancakes for breakfast if you want some. "She said with a smile.

I nodded with a smile. She returned the smile and went on her way. I closed my door and noticed that the music is turned down.

I walked to my closet to choose my outfit for the day:A black denim skirt with a white tank top. And then my white sneakers.

I headed to my bathroom and took a shower. Afterwards I got dressed and didn't mind doing make - up. I brushed my teeth and pulled my hair up in a high messy bun.

When I was done I went to get some air. I opened up my wide windows and balcony doors. I stepped out on the balcony and immediately admired the fresh air. I looked over the fresh flowers and clean sunny sky.

"Who are you?" A girl said from beside me. She stood on the other balcony with a cigarette between her fingers. She had blond hair, blue eyes and a slim body.

"Emily and you?" I asked with a small smile.

"Brittany. Why are you here?"She asked with a rudeness behind her tone. Before I could answer her Masion stepped out.

" Are you ready? "He asked not even acknowledge my presence. She nodded her head and throw her cigarette over. Masion walked back in with her following behind while giving me a dirty look.

I just shook my head and headed in. I grabbed my phone from the night stand and headed downstairs.

I heard some chattering from the kitchen. I headed towards it and was met with two more elderly women.

They both looked like in their fortieth. I made my way towards the island and sat down on the chair. They didn't took their eyes of me.

"I am glad you finally come down." Alison said with a smile. She started plating my pancakes. The elderly women was silent. Alison then brought me my plate and some coffee for me.

"Thanks Alison this smells good." I said with a small smile.

"My pleasure. I want you to meet my new friends. They are going to help out at the restaurant. This is Maddie and that's her sister Gabby. They both knew your parents." She said with a smile.

"Hi. It's nice to meet you." I said with a smile. They both looked away with no smiles. I quickly took a sip of my coffee to hide the uncomfortable feeling.

"We knew those Watsons very well." Maddie said while folding her arms. Gabby doing the same. I looked up and couldn't help but see the disgust they had on their faces.

"I think I am going for a walk. Thanks for breakfast."I said while standing up. Alison shoot me a worried look which I just shoved away.

I walked out the front door and walked down the street. My thoughts went in circles. I didn't know why they addressed me so disrespectful. Lots of people knew my mom and dad because of their jobs but I never knew they had enemies.

I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't even know where I am. I looked around and saw a park ahead. I walked towards it while pulling out my phone. I entered my home location and was relieved to see the directions.

I walked towards a swing and sat down while slowly swinging on it. I heard some children laughing and screaming around the playground. I felt all those sadness in my heart again. I wish that I was still a little girl running around with the only feeling in my heart :happiness.

I spent almost the whole day on the swings that I didn't even notice the time. I quickly rushed down the path when a car honked behind me. I didn't recognized it at first but then I saw the BMW on the side walk. I rushed towards it and opened the passenger door.

"I am so sorry. I lost track of-." I immediately froze.

"Just get in." He said already knowing that I am shocked. He wasn't rude or angry.He didn't even looked in my direction. I obeyed and got in. My thoughts was spinning with questions. One of them were about his rudeness.

"How did you know where I was?" I asked. But I instantly regret it when I saw him tightening his hold around the steering wheel.

"You couldn't get to far on feet, so I drove around these areas and saw you walking on the sidewalk." He replied still not looking at me.

I didn't reply and was staring out of the window. He turned on the radio and was silent the rest of the time.

We reached home and I was so happy. I unbuckeled and was about to get out when he grabs a hold of my arm pulling me back a little.

"I am sorry for being a ass."He said while looking me directly in the eyes. I gulped and was nervous." It's alright. "I quickly replied before rushing out and into the house. I could feel his eyes looking into my soul, how he searched my eyes for any clue which I am not so sure of.

When I entered I walked to the kitchen for a glass of water. I entered and the island was stacked with all kinds of food and desserts. There were no sign of Alison or the two old ladies.

I walked up to the fridge and helped myself with some organe juice instead . I gulped it down. When I was about to place my glass in the sink Alison entered. She still had her apron on with baking powder on her arms and face.

"Oh thank god Masion found you." She said before hugging me tightly. "I was worried about you. You didn't say where you were going or anything." She said with a sad tone.

"Sorry I kinda lost track of time and was little bit lost. I promise it won't happen again." I said with a nervous voice.

"It's alright dear. But I need your help. We need to get all of these food in the car. Mike will help and also Masion. I hope you don't mind staying at home alone with Masion because me and Mike need to attend a meeting and afterwards a party?"She said in one breath.

" No not at all. "I said with a small smile." Alright, there are pizza in the freezer which you can heat up and snacks in the dining room. I need to go get ready and help Maddie and Gabby with the dishes. "She said before heading upstairs in a rush.

In a half hour the car was packed with the food and Alison was ready with Mike and also Maddie and Gabby.

Alison told me that they wouldn't be back until midnight so I don't have to stay up. And after our goodbyes they left.
