I sigh deeply while letting my body fall back onto my bed.
I have to calm down and rest my brain. I've been nonstop thinking since yesterday. There is too much happening, and I have so many questions and the urge to immediately solve everything.
One of those things was actually already solved without me having to lift a finger or give anyone a check. The costs for the mess I caused at the bar were apparently already paid by someone. They wouldn't tell me who it was, so I didn't even bother to find out.
Now I'm left with the other two major problems.
I'm being accused of stealing millions worth of shiny and pretty stones when I had no clue that they were even stolen. I don't even know where they were being kept.
Now, the second problem is the worst. My aunt has been kidnapped by the man that I most despise and hate with every part of my being. Considering what he did to me I'm afraid of what he is capable of doing to her. I have a horrible feeling about this.
I have no contact with him because the messages I received were from a burner. I don't know where to look for him either. I have pretty good idea of what he will want in return for her freedom. I don't even want to think about it because if I do, I'm sure I'll throw up.
My phone on one of my nightstands begins to ring. I pick myself up from the bed and reach over to grab it. I furrow my eyebrows and immediately answer when seeing that it is Anton and Ilya's school that is calling.
"Good morning, may I speak with Ms. Katya Markova?" A woman politely requests.
"Good morning, yes, this is her."
"Ms. Markova, I am calling to inform you that Ilya and Anton Markov were involved in a physical altercation with two other classmates."
Her words make me close my eyes for a moment. I really didn't need this to happen today.
We're now back to having three problems.
"The principal has requested your presence at this moment if it's possible."
"Yeah, I'll be there in a few minutes. Thank you for informing me." I respond and with that I hang up to go see what these two idiots got themselves into now.

I enter the principal's office to see my brothers sitting on one side of the room and a woman and who I am assuming are her two kids on the other side.
The look on her face immediately tells me she is bitchy. It's just something about her where you can very easily tell, and I am already irritated by her.
"Hello." I softly say when entering to get everyone's attention.
When my brother's look at me, they seem to relax. It's like they really need me here to protect them from whatever. I go to stand beside them as the principal welcomes me in.
