That First Eye Contact

We Can't Be Sisters!!

Sophia's POV

What the hell on earth you're doing here?" Ruby yelled.

"I came here to meet Ella. Where's she? Is she one of your minions?" I panicked.

I don't want any of her minions to be Ella or my step sister.

"I--I am Ella." Ruby said, darting her eyes around.

I laughed. "Stop it! That's a nice joke."

"Oh shut up! I told you I'm Ella." She scowled.

No. This can't be true.
No. No. No.

So does this shit means that Ruby is my step sister?

A lot of emotions were running in my head. I stood there frozen, rooted to my spot.

What am I supposed to do now?

" Wait....are you? No this can't be true." She cringed and walked by my side stomping downstairs.

I followed her. She was standing in the living room.

"Dad! Is she my sister?" She pointed towards me.

"Of course honey. You know her, don't you? And meet Nicole your........mom." He looked down.

"Hello Ella. How are you?" Mom walked towards her but she stepped back.

"Hey stop! Just make this clear in your mind that You and I share no relation. Okay? I hope I made myself clear." Soon her lips turned into a smirk.

For a while there was a pin drop silence.

But, for a while.

"What happened Ella? You always said that you wanted a mom. A sibling. Look now we're a family sweetie." Dad kept his hand on Ruby's shoulder nonchalantly.

But she dodged him away.

"Oh C'mon dad. Seriously ? No chance with this girl.!" She sat on the couch and started texting.

"Yeah.. Like I give a shit." I muttered.

"Ella just go to your room and get ready. Can't you freaking get me? Don't forget you're living on my credit cards." Louis snatched the phone from her hand throwing vexed glares at her.
She audibly gulped and rushed upstairs.

Money can make a bitch obedient.

****

" Did you get me? Behave like a good boy there. "

" Yeaaaaaahhhh" Josh replied in a bored tone.

We were currently standing in front of an exotic restaurant. By 'we' I mean our loving family.

We stepped inside. It was one of the most or the most sophisticated restaurant I had ever seen. I observed the surroundings and saw the round tables on which couples or families were enjoying their meals.

Wosh! Tuxedo make guys a real man.

I could see from the side of my eye, Ruby drolling over the guys. She was passing flirtious smiles to them and looked at them in a seductive manner. She got a lot of attention too because of her mini cleavage showing dress.

I mean seriously who wears these type of dresses on a family dinner?

A waitress came towards us. She looked at Louis and passed a smile completely ignoring Josh, Ruby, mom and me.

She was beautiful though. I recognized her as Rosie.

"Do you want a table sir? She continued to flirt with Louis.

"No. Who needs a table when your restaurant has a beautiful carpet? A carpet for five please." Ruby said sweetly faking a smile.

The waitress looked at Ruby with constantly blinking eyes trying to figure out what she said.

So dumb.

"Please come with me." She guided us to our table.

We sat on the comfortable seats with Ruby on my right and Josh on my left. Mom and Louis, facing us.

We ordered our desired dishes and waited for them to come.

Mom and Louis were chatting. Louis bent a little and whispered something in mom's ear to which she laughed. I looked at Josh but he was too busy in drolling over the dishes of other people with watering mouth.

And then, I looked at her. Ruby.

She was as usual surfing instagram. I immediately looked away.

Not interested.

I kept my hands on my lap and sighed. The best part I forgot my phone at home.

"Don't you think you need to get a manicure?" Ruby cringed and flipped her hair in disgust.

"Don't you think you need to get a life?" I cringed and flipped my hair rolling my eyes.

She glared at me and went back, scrolling her instagram.

The waiter served us our meals. Me and Josh were the first to attack.

In my blood.

When we were done with our food it was the time for dessert. We placed our orders again.

"Ella can you tell me what's the time dear?" Mom said wiping the side of her lips with a napkin.

Ruby pressed the power button of her phone. I saw the picture of a familiar guy in the background wallpaper.

"It's 9:32"

I peeped my eyeballs a little more to see the picture as she tilted her phone to the other side.

My jaw dropped to what I saw. I kept my hands on my mouth in bewilderment. My eyeballs were on the verge of popping out.

I just saw the picture of my ex boyfriend in my step sister's phone.

Ethan. It was the picture of Ethan.

Hello little cupcakes!

What's up with life?

This chapter took a lot of time. First I wrote it and decided to publish it the next day but when the other day I opened wattpad it was vanished.

So I wrote it again.
I wonder what would be life if I did that much struggle in maths.

Whatever. So...keep supporting.
