SEDUCING MY SISTER'S FIANCE

PLANNING

Esther's POV

It was a sunny day. My day starts with new thoughts and ends with a bad mood. The people in this house make sure of it.

Richard, Eric, and Elijah went to the office. Sara spent her days in a beauty parlor and shopping.

I was walking through the garden. The plants are all dried. I have a faded memory of this garden. The morning walk made me sweat. I took a shower and came down for something to eat.

There was Lucy sitting on the couch. The witch. 

"How are you, Esther? ", she asked. It was me and her alone."Nothing special, Lucy", I answered, showing no interest in her lovely talk.

" Lucy. You wanted to call me mom", she asked with a laugh. The laughter can break glasses.

"Well, you never liked it", I answered honestly. I never knew what her problem was with me. She didn't like me for a bit.

"So you still remember everything?" She was playing twenty-one questions.

"It's not easy to forget Lucy," I said, looking straight into her eyes.
"I thought you were too young to remember ", she continued. I laughed at her. The wound is still raw.

"Then you tell me why you suddenly came back", she asked. I was confused.

"Why are you giving such an expression? Tell me why you came back." She was commanding me.

"That's because your husband called me ", I answered.

"No, Richard, I will never call you back", she said. She is assuming that I am here for revenge. Wait, mommy, you will know everything soon.
"Okay, then look at this ", I said, showing the email Richard sent. She then looked shocked. Lucy was silent for a few seconds before regaining her composure.

"So you leave after her marriage?" She was making it clear.
"At the next second ", I answered, but there will be no marriage.

"Don't play tricks here ", she warned me. I avoided her look. She smells negative.

"You know how I packed you when you were just eleven ", she said. It was a nightmare. I didn't answer.

"You still remember your life in there," she asked. I am losing my control.
"These tattoos are to hide your scars, right", she said as she touched my back. Then she moved close to me and whispered, "Should I call Zack again? "
There, I lost it. He was it. All this time, I was hiding. My body shivered with his thought.

I moved backward.

"Why are you doing this to me?" His memories are scary. The look on his face still makes me lose sleep.

"Because of you. You are the reason ", she shouted.
"What reason? I always considered you as my mother. I took care of you and obeyed you better than your own daughter ", I said.

She looked down and remembered the past. It was true that many nights I was awake to message her leg; she called me first if she needed anything, and her coffee and food were all to be prepared by me. I did everything considering her as my mother.

"Why do you love my brothers and hate me? ", I asked.
"I don't like anyone other than my daughter ", she said. It was clear that she hated me. But my brothers were fools.

"Never mind. Behave yourself. Don't make me repeat what happened years ago", she said.

The door opened. All the other members came inside. There are many packages in their hands.

"We are holding the party here", Richard said to Lucy. I didn't forget. It was Sara's birthday tomorrow.

"We have no time. All get ready ", Eric happily went to arrange everything.

"I called Aaron. He will be here tomorrow", Sara said happily.
"That's good ", Lucy said. Her eyes have a victory emotion. Yeah, she successfully applied salt to my wound.

"What gift do you want, Sara? ", Elijah asked. Her birthday. It was my birthday last week. No one remembered it. It's okay. I celebrate my birthday on another date. The day I got freedom. 

"Whatever you give is enough for me," she said. Wow, loving sister. They didn't acknowledge my presence. Sometimes I feel they are purposefully avoiding me.I walked into my room. I was going to take a shower. But the witch came there.

"Hi, my young sister ", she waved, and walked inside. I was not in a mood to respond.

"What gift are you going to give me on my birthday? ", she asked me. I will blast your head. How is it?

"Oh, you are poor. You don't have money to buy a gift ", she said. I am not poor. She doesn't know about my details. Then again, I don't want to buy a gift for her.

"It's okay, sis. I am older than you, so I can understand this. I will consider this your gift", she said as she took a chain from my table. It was my mom's. She put it on my neck before she died. Sara took it in her hand.

"No, Sara, put it there", I said.
"No way ", she said and walked downstairs.

"I told you to give it back", I was roaring. They all looked in my direction.
"What happened, Sara? ", like every time they asked her, ignoring me.

"She is yelling at me because I took this chain from her room ", and the water works.
"Why do you have to be so cruel, Esther? She is your sister. It is her birthday tomorrow, "Eric said.
"I don't fucking care. Give it back to me!" I shouted at her.

"This is mom's chain? ", Elijah asked me.
"Yeah", I answered, and I walked to her.
"She is not only your mom. Give it to her if she wants ", Eric said. He held me in his arm while Sara walked to her room.

I felt pity for Eric. He is a puppet in their hands. He then released me. I moved to my room. I need the chain. It is my mom's.I waited for her to go out of the room. But she wore the chain around her neck.It is her birthday tomorrow. She has to remove it from her neck. Then I can take it from her.
