MY WORST FEARS (Completed)

chapter 42

HELLZEL'S POV

Its passed three days without going back to my house. Since I met with Don last time and threatened to tell Lay the truth, I kinda knocked him down several times before leaving the club.
How dare he threaten me after everything he made her go through? He followed me out and couldn't leave me till he found out where I was staying, saying that he knew Lay was staying in my place. I wondered how he knew. So I just drove to my mum's and asked my hideous cousin, Vicky to make sure she had everything she needed.
Not that I trusted him with her but I had no other option. He told me several times that times that she was asking about me, so I told him to tell her that I was taking care of my mum. She even asked if she could help. Lay. I didn't even know how I feel about her. But one thing i was sure of was I couldn't bring myself to be close enough to her.it'd only cause havoc in my life and I wasn't ready for any of that.
After I threatened Don about going close to Lay, that'd rip his hair one by one, and I meant it, I also made sure that Vicky would made sure she and Don don't meet. The few days I stayed away from her felt empty. Lonely. Sad.
I wanted her close to me. Where I could make fun of her and watch her scowl at me. How she looked with the new outfit.
But I felt it all wrong. I felt like it wasn't okay to have her in my finger tips. To hold her close to my body. To make her mine. Not after what my mum told me. About a scar. About my lost sister having a scar on the forehead. The one she had acquired when she had tried to take the first step of life. I remembered how she uses to smile alot. How she used to crawl on the floor faster to me after school. Only to be taken away from me. The first day my mum took her to the park. To play with some other kids. And from that day, I never got to see her ever again.
And now that I met Lay, that I actually found something real. Something I've been looking for all this time. Having to date Rymana all those years, after I took a first glance of her body I never brought myself to touch her. She swore help me search for my sister while I wasn't allowed to date other chicks. I was only allowed to fool around just as her, but not form a relationship.
She even made me sign a contract that, the day she found, I mean her father, who was the governor, found my sister, then we'd date. But until then we were allowed to see other people.
The day I met Lay, how she responded to me made me know she was unique. Girls threw themselves to me for my looks. I hated how they had to modify their bodies to look good. Even the characters, they only pretended to me some other people, celebrities just so they could find a mate.
But with Lay, she was real. She never feared being who she was no matter how she looked like. Why don't people ever appreciate what they have? Don had it all with her yet he left her for Rymana, all the fake goodies. And then after screwing her, he wanted Lay back? He must be nuts. There was no way I'd allow that to happen.
"Son, you have to come down now for breakfast. You'll be late for school", my mum shouted and I woke up putting on a pair of sweatpants and shirt then headed downstairs. I decided not to run away from her again. I wouldn't want her to be my sister like the way my mum described it, coz I didn't know what I'd do. I never imagined her being my sister and the picture of it, didn't fit in the frame.
" son, haven't the Governor given you any news now? I feel like I'll never see my daughter ever again. It breaks my heart everyday that passes by",she said sadness dripping from her tone. I wish I could do it. I wish I could find my sister and take away my mother's sad face. I hated to see her hurt. I stood from my chair and wrapped my hands around her while rubbing my hand on her back.
"Don't worry mum, I have hope we'll find her", I said fear taking over me. As much as I didn't want to believe Lay had the possibility of being my sister, I still wanted to make my mum happy. There was only one way to find out if she was really my sister. The chain. The chain my mum had given her. The chain she had on her neck the day she got lost. I'd have to ask if she had it.
We took breakfast with my mum then headed back to my room took a shower then said my goodbyes as I was not planning to go back there. I'd have to face Lay, somehow ask her about her life and know if she had the chain. A writhing pain crossed my heart when I thought about it. The governor wasn't doing so much to help either. He was in a perfect position to help but still yet, he didn't do anything. It took him already so many years trying to find my sister which took much time for someone like him, to find her.
I arrived in school pretty much late and o knew the class had already started. I walked through the hallway when my attention was drown by a group of students gathered in front of me, shouting. I walked faster enough to see what was going on. People turned to me when they saw me and stared at me. I wondered what was going on before pushing away some few bodies and guess what I saw...
Lay was sprawled on the ground, Rymana sitting on top of her fisting her. I reached out and threw Rymana to the ground patting her away from Lay and she stood up, locking her teary eyes with me.
Damn it.
