Thalia Reign

5:12 am.

TODAYS THE DAY. TODAYS THE DAY. TODAYS THE DAAAAAAAAAAAY.

Just to let you know, I always wake up early when it's my birthday. And thank God todays a Saturday! I dont have to go to school. I'm just going to decorate the house for tonights celebration, today. I know its a bit weird for me to do this especially when its my birthday and I'm the one doing all the decors and stuff. But trust me guys, I've always done this ever since I was 6. I just love birthdays, I find it a blessing and it really should be special.

I got up and went downstairs seeing Kylie, my personal maid, cooking breakfast.

"Gooooood moooorning dearest princess!" she greeted as soon as she saw me walking towards her. "Happy birthday your higness!"

"Kylie, stop treating me like a princess." I giggled whilst I took a seat.

"But my lady, you are a princess. And you will always be." she smiled at me and went back to her cooking.

-6:10 am-

I was at the living room talking to Mr Evans, the head of the most popular hosting company in Washington. I was looking for a host when I saw daddy walking down the hall, hands on his back, coming towards me.

"Good morning to my most beautiful baby." Daddy gave me a hug and I hugged him back.

"Dad, I'm not a baby anymore. Remember? I'm 18." I said '18' slowly so that he would atleast remember that I was having my debut and not my baptism.

Dad chuckled and was still hiding his arms on his back. He must've noticed me staring at it, looking puzzled. "Happy Birthday, Sweetie." He finally brought his arms in front, showing a small beaut box. Its very tiny and the ribbons around it was very well wrapped. It was my first birthday present.

"Aww daddy...." I took the tiny present from his hands and opened it. The material was cold when I held it on my hands. It was a pure gold heart shaped locket.

"Dad.... It's beautiful." I gave him a tight hug and sat down after.

"Go ahead and open it." Dad instructed me. I open it and saw a family picture. I saw dad on it and I also saw two babies and a woman standing.

"Dad?..." I literally dont know who those 2 persons were but I guess that the little brunette baby who was held on dads arm was me and the blonde man was dad. I looked at dad waiting for him to say anything.

"Its an old family picture of the Reign." Dad pointed at the woman who was carrying a baby on the picture. "That's your mom. And that baby on her arms is your twin." He looked down and sadness filled in him.

But what!? My TWIN!? I have a twin!? Why didn't know that, and why did dad only told me this now?

"I have a twin? Dad, why didn't you tell me at the first place?" that made me vedy sad. I'm not angry though, I just cant believe why dad haven't told me this ages ago.

"I'm sorry, Lia. I didnt want you to know. I had alot of bad memories with your mom and I dont want you to know anything about her not unless your already 18. And now you're 18, I think I should tell you everything." I felt terrible. Why was I not told about this. I mean, why now? I stared at dad with a blank expression on my face, waiting for him to say everything. Its about time to know about my mom and my twin, oh god.

"Your mom and I still wasn't married when we had both of you. It happened when we were 19, I was completely drunk at this certain bar. I wanted to forget about how my ex girlfriend dump me back then. Then your mom came to me and she seem to be very concerned for me. She was also a very friendly person. We talked all night flirting; then I suddenly fell in love at her." Dad explained to me but then I cut him off because I was confused about something.

"Dad, you cant just fall in love with someone you just met. Your such a jerk, oh my gosh." I rolled my eyes and I dad laughed at my remark.

"I was drunk." he explained and defended himself. "Your mom and I were making love that night and--"

"Skip please." I demanded. Dad laughed again.

"That's when a few weeks later, we knew that your mom got pregnant. I was horified at first because i'm still 19. I didnt want to be a father yet."

So that's why dad was furious when he knew I slept with Brian at a party. He had some past issues about it after all.

"That's when I planned on getting married to Alice."

"Alice is my mom, dad?" He nodded.

"We were married just before she gave birth to twins. And that's when you and Theodore was born. A month passed by and one night your mom couldn't handle something anymore. She confessed to me that ever since she was 18, she was a prostitute."

Wow. Deep words. That shocked me.

"I broke down and I hit her because of my anger. I swear I didn't really mean to hit her. I was just so angry. I couldn't believe that she lied at me."

Dad clenched his teeth and I could see sorrow, guilt and regret written all over his face. I hugged him and tears started to stream down my face. I never thought mom was a prostitute. And how dad was struggling all these time, making me go away from parties and only making me drink wine durinf occations.

"Your mom was obviously scared of me that she packed up and left me with you since she got Theodore with her." Dad was full of sorrow. Seeing dad being so sad like this made me sad too. And it wasn't fair since its my birthday and birthdays were supposed to be fun.

"Dad, I'm not angry at you for telling me these stuffs just now. Can we just be happy already? I dont want my, I mean, mine and Theodore's birthday to be all frowning faces and tears." I winked at him and gave him a smile.

Daddy stood up and wrapped his arms around me.

"Okay princess, I'll see you at 3pm. Make sure your birthday will be a blast! And you can invite your friends over right now so that you wont be alone with all the preparation and stuff." He said to me.

I raised a brow at him, wondering why he was already so into inviting my friends to come over.

"What made you change your mind dad? You've began to like my friends already?" I smirked at him.

"Maybe not "all"  your friends." Das winked at me twice making a shiver down my spine. That was creepy.

"What do you mean?"

"Try asking superman on what really happened that made me change my mind." He didn't say anything else but that sentence he walked away and left me sitting alone.

"Superman, huh?" I whispered to myself whilst looking back at the cute family picture in my locket.

Mom was a gorgeous individual. She had brunette hair like me. Her skin is so white and she also had curly hair. That explains my wavy hair.

"I wonder who this "superman" dad is talking about." I smiled, closed the locket and went back to business.

Its showtime baby!
