Losing someone is painful, the absence of their presence is a glaring fact, and the lost memories, are a reminder of what you used to have. But what if you had another chance to love them?
Akira has made all the wrong choices all her life and when r...
Akira emerged from the room, confident in her step. She strode to the front seat and flopped leisurely, her will to participate clear in her narrowed and angry eyes. Crossing her fabric-laced arms across her chest, her face morphed into a grim stone-cold expression.

The heavily scented perfume wafted through the air, swiftly imbuing itself into the Alion family's lungs. Ethan's eyes bulged out of their sockets. The strong scent of perfume slid down their throats painfully, forcing them out a cough. Amber scrunched up her face, her eyes watering as she struggled to breathe.
She croaked. "What the hell is that thing?! Uh, I can't breathe!"
Alex poked his tongue out, attempting to get the smell out of his system. He held his nose tightly. He said snarkily.
"I believe that thing is your future daughter-in-law."
William's brows furrowed, creating deep lines on his forehead. He spoke angrily "Is this some kind of joke, Edward?!"
Hailey quickly jumped into her husband's defense. "No, we promise this was not meant to disrespect you in any way." She said, turning to scold Akira.
"Akira, what are you doing !? Go back to your room and change that thing right now" Hailey hissed standing up. Amber and William also stood to receive the handkerchiefs from Albert. Alex didn't waste any time and hastily took one from Barreto. He offered one to Ethan, who reluctantly took it. But the strong pungent smell left him with no choice.
Akira smiled in satisfaction. She ignored her mother and slumped lower in her seat, her face defiant and resolute in her decision. Her posture was unbothered, and her feet were plumped up against the table, spilling the tea and spoiling the snacks as her giant monster boots scattered the tea set.
"What if I don't want to? Hailey "Akira" snarled.
Edward and Hailey's faces froze in shock. Hailey felt the heat crawl up her neck. The Aliens Family screwed up their faces. This was not the manner a daughter of a respected family should behave. Brazen and disrespectful!
"Surely you must be joking, right?" Amber's face twisted in disapproval.
"Is this the daughter you expect to enter our family?" William raged at the blatant disrespect for his family. At that moment, Akira let out a loud burp. William stared at Edward while pointing a sharp finger at Akira as if to prove his point.
"That thing is an insult to my family" William gritted out.
"Hey! This thing has a name, Oldie!" Akira snapped back. William's face hardened as he fumed. Edward swiped his face, considering sewing his daughter's mouth. Why couldn't she be born mute? , he thought helplessly.
