*Suspicious Feelings*
Joseph was busy in his studio, covered in colours and paintings all over; his work cloth was thrown aside on the floor, he was so concentrated on his painting that he did not realize what was transpiring outside his door, he was busy putting finishing touches to the portrait of Adanna which he was secretly drawing, he had specially hidden it since he was sure the girl was not going to keep off his studio.
A sudden thudding on his door made him hurriedly shove the canvas behind the curtain near the door
"Joseph help us, come out" multiple voices shouted outside his door, the banging continued, reluctantly he stood up and went to the door
"What do you want" he asked when he opened the door, he chuckled at the appearance of the three girls, they were so funny looking, Lara's makeup was streaming down her face and badly smeared on her clothes, Clara on the other hand had her gown bunched up in her left hand the other hand she tightened into a fist, Daniella was simply the worse, rice grains were scattered all over her hair and her clothes were stained with the debris
"What in the name of..... Happened to you guys?" He asked looking at them "Were you fighting Adanna again?" he queriedLara eyed him "What do you take us for, It is your brother that did this"
"Jez?" Joseph asked skeptically
"Yes, it was Jezreel who poured this rice on my head" Daniella shouted shaking her head, more rice grains fell to the floor of Joseph's studio
"But Jezreel is not in the house currently, so I don't believe you" Joseph declared going back into his studio
Lara and Clara shared eye contact before making a dash for Joseph, they held his hand not letting him make a move
"What is it again, release me? You girls are molesting me ahhh, Hope you know I can sue you for sexual harassment "he complained struggling to get free but by then the three girls had surrounded him each holding different parts of him
"Please help us, joseph please save us "They chanted not giving him any room to escape
"Ok what should I help you with?"
"Jezreel wants to send us out this night, he said we should pack our bags that he is sending us back home" Lara cried using Joseph's shirt to wipe her makeup smeared face
"You still haven't answer my question, What. Should. I. Help. You. With." Joseph emphasized
" Help us beg him"
"I can't do that"
Clara released her hand on his shirt to look in his face, she had to tiptoe since she wasn't tall enough
"Joseph don't forget am your cousin, You guys can't just throw us out, it is night for goodness sake, what if something happen to us on the way""And there is no one at home and the house is so big, am scared to stay alone in that house" Lara begged getting teary eyed
"I can't help you to beg Joseph, Do you want to know why?"They all nodded their head in affirmation
"Because he won't answer me, But there is only one person that can talk to him for you and that is Adanna, I warned you guys not to disturb that girl but it was like you were all deaf"
"We did not disturb her, she is just so gullible" Lara replied with disgust, putting her hands on her hips
"Are you helping us or not?" Clara asked
"I can't help you, because I warned you not to make that girl work so much, but you did not answer me so now Jezreel is annoyed with you, now you are coming to me, Well I guess I can help drop you at home" Joseph said immediately turning his back to them, he walked towards the door, opening the door, he waved them out
"You can take your leave Madams, I am quite busy" he said empathetically, pronouncing each word syllable by syllable looking at them in the eye
Clara stared madly at Joseph, the lines on her face increased with the intensity in which she stared at him, if only looks could kill, Joseph would have been ten feet's into the ground she hissed walking arrogantly to the door, she was about walking past when she saw the half-finished portrait of Adanna that Joseph had hidden behind the door, with a witchy look she brought it out, holding it out, she turned to face Joseph
"So this is what you and your brother embark on in this house, no wonder he does not like us being here, You guys use her as a sexual experiment right"
"Watch what you say" Joseph warned
"watch what you say" she mimicked shaking her head like a Barbie doll" I am saying the truth and you know it, you boys are sleeping with that girl, if not how come Jezreel is so into her, Mom told me Jezreel doesn't really like girls like that, he does not like girls around him especially and you are also drawing a portrait of her when you keep doing as if you hate her, Explain that uhh, Something is definitely going on between you all, If you send us out this night, I promise you that Dad and Mom will hear this and I can even add a lot of things to the story to make it really juicy so if you know what is good for you, go inside now and tell your brother to let us stay till we wish to go" She declared
The room was silent by the time she was done talking she had been so caught up in making her mind known she hadn't felt the temperature of the room had dropped drastically, she gasped at seeing the other occupants in the room using her hands to cover her mouth
"Good evening Ma" she hurriedly greeted
"You are to spice up the story to make it more juicy what!!!, after all you did to Adanna "Mrs Adams shouted dragging Clara by the arm " I brought you guys here because your Mother begged me to and I expected nothing but good behaviour from you, What a disappointment"
"Ma they are lying to you I did not even touch her" she said trying to defend herself as Mrs Adams dragged her along to the living room, she flopped her down on the floor, leaving her there she made her way to a sofa
"Lying...?" she asked unbelievably "Lara you have so much confidence lying to me, Did you think anyone told me anything, There is CCTV all around this house and they are all connected to the Dashcam of my car, everything you did to Adanna today was recorded, so just go in there pack your bags"
"I don't tolerate it any form of nonsense so pack up and get out end of discussion."
