Chapter twenty-one: "Deal With The Devil"

Cloud drove me home so I can properly tell everyone I am now living with Cloud, Dad was devastated and Mom was sullen that they weren't even planning on hiding it
"Man up you two, you guys knew this would happen" Aunt Laborè told them, she was in the kitchen in her comfortable clothes

My sisters were nowhere to be seen but suddenly I heard all of them come out one by one holding a weapon each

Adeline was holding her signature favorite bat, Wendy was holding a kitchen knife the protective cover still on, Brie was holding a frying pan, Caramia was not holding back because she brought an axe

Ella and Natalie brought the thickest book they could find and were gripping it tightly with a threatening look, they all sat around us and was giving Cloud a menacing glare

Caramia was more threatening because the axe was more scarier, she slammed her hand on the coffee table
"If I ever see you hurt and beat my sister do you know where your head will hang? Right on top of the fireplace", she pointed the axe to the fireplace in the living room
Forget overprotective big brothers be more afraid of overprotective big sisters

All the adults in the room were ignoring the scary tension that was forming that Aunt Laborè say out loud
"do you guys want to have tea? I think I have some here?"

Mom and Dad agreed and they all went outside with the tea set, Cloud was doomed but he wasn't threatened at all
He must have faced a more scary situation than this

But when my sisters get angry you will get an angry mob of killers, the last time that Wendy was bullied we all beat, more specifically, Caramia was the one who beat the shit out of them

Cloud instead chuckle lowly
"How about we talk it out with a promise?"

When Cloud makes a deal or promise he makes sure he benefitted from it very well
I try giving my sisters my no-look but they decided to accept it, they pushed me out and I am now hanging out with my parents and Aunt for tea

The tea was good and there were little to no noise outside today but I was still not relaxed at the thought of Cloud making a deal with my sisters
Is this what it feels like to deal with the devil?

I just hope it's not another ridiculous promise or deal
"The tea tastes good" I said as I eyed my cup that is now empty

Mom was about to pour me another cup when suddenly I hear loud commotions coming from the inside
"I'm praying that they won't break anything inside" Dad said out loud and all of us agreed with a nod all at the same time

But alas his prayers weren't answered cause the next thing we see after we opened the door after our afternoon tea is the vase being broken and several couch pillows were on the floor, it was not that catastrophic but a vase broke, Mom didn't lash out but what she did, however, was emitting a deadly aura that was more deadlier than Caramia and Dad combined

Cloud was more afraid of my Mom than Caramia almost swinging an axe at him that was mere inches close to his neck, she hid the axe behind her and gave us a sheepish grin and Dad raised a brow at her
"Caramia college first before murder you know that" he crossed his arms
Dad, I'm more concerned that you have to let your daughter kill a person than finish college

I rubbed both of my temples
This house was chaotic enough with my sisters but since Cloud came along it was more chaotic than ever

I pulled Cloud out of the house and sat him down at the front porch stairs
"Have you lost your mind? Did the brain inside you just go poof?!"
