Against All Odds

Chapter 11

Amara P.O.V.

I stepped out of the guest room, shutting the door behind me. I walked down the hallway to the bathroom and tried to push open the door, but it was locked.

I immediately rolled my eyes and sighed, knowing Miranda's so called daughter had to be in here. I looked down at my watch and sighed, knowing that Alicia would be here any minute to pick me up, and I had to get out before anyone could see me leaving with her.

I took a deep breath and held up my hand to knock on the door, but it swung open. "Oh, my ba- oh my god, hey!" My whole face fell into a frown once I seen Olivia standing in the bathroom doorway.

"Oh my god, your dad is MGK??" I nodded. "...And your mom is Miranda?" She smiled, nodding her head.

"This is so cool, it's a really small world." I put a small smile on my face, not in the mood for all this damn niceness early in the morning.

"...Did you need to use the bathroom? Im done in here." I shook my head, holding up my hand. "No, I was just leaving." I turned around before she could say another word to me.

I darted down the stairs and out the front door, just in time for Alicia to be turning on our street. I took a deep breath and got into the car with her, before she could even pull up to the house.

Aliyah P.O.V.

"Breakfast is ready baby." I sat up in bed, pulling my messy hair up in a bun. I slid out of bed, as my mom leaned up agaisnt my doorframe. "Did you have a good night last night?" I nodded my head, as I slipped on a pair of tube socks.

"Im sure you did, since you rolled up in here past midnight." I softly sighed as I turned around to face her. "You heard me?" She shook her head. "No, I seen you, on the security tapes this morning." I sighed again.

"Did you tell daddy?" She shook her head no. "No, but I still need to know why you broke curfew last night, that's unlike you." I sat down on the edge of my bed and looked up at her.

"...I woud have been on time...it's just that the traffic was really bad, so I was late." She nodded slowly. "The traffic was bad? Is that why that boy was late dropping you home??"

I immediately froze. "And why was he dropping you home in the first place?? Didn't you drive yourself??" I nodded. "I did, but....it's a long story mom, we had to rush out the party, and he took me home, to make sure I was safe."

A small smile formed on her lips. "Right...who's the boy?" She lifted a brow, waiting for me to answer. "Marcus, the boy im tutoring, remember?" She nodded. "Oh right, Marcus." She said.

"Well I got another question for you." I was silent. "If he dropped you home last night, how the hell is your car sitting out there in the driveway??" Both of my brows shot up. "It is???" She nodded her head yes.

"When I woke up this morning it was sitting in the driveway, where you usually park at." I smiled a little to myself. "Did you sneak out and have somebody help you get it??" I shook my head no.

"No...Marcus did it." She lifted a brow. "Did he?" I nodded my head yes. "Yeah, he told me he would get it for me by the morning....but I didn't think he could really do it." I said. mumbiling the last part.

She folded her arms across her chest, staring at me. "And how did he get it for you??" I paused for a second. "....I gave him my car keys.." "You gave him the keys to your brand new Benz?? What if he would have stole it??" I shook my head. "He wouldn't have done that."

She lifted a brow. "Oh really? Your car is sitting there, but where are your keys?? Did he give those back to you??" "Shit.." I mumbled.

She shook her head as she pulled out something from her back pocket. "He left these with one of the men that works the gate." She tossed my keys and sighed.
