I stared at my mum weirdly, as she hugged us, even Rush, and started dancing around the room.
"He's coming..He's coming.."
I prevented a laugh as Allison asked, confused."Sorry, Who's coming ?"
"Your dad, of course !"
My smile widened as Allison cheered.
"Dad is coming ? That's awesome !"Then she slowed her excitement as I asked.
"But, What is the occasion ?"
They all stared at mum.
"oh, he probably knew Trump is here, so he might want to talk to him. And ME !"Mum exclaimed, and continued to dance. I swear, if she could, she'd be dancing on the ceiling. (guess where did I get that from.)
But then I started to get confused."How did you know the Trumps are here even if I haven't told you that yet ?"
"oh, Donald called me this morning and asked if he can take you from school because Barron misses you so much."I nodded.
"well, I'll be in my room, working on the script if someone needs me."
They nodded, but mum didn't pay attention, she was smiling like it's Heaven on Earth. *eye roll*An Hour Later :
I was deep in thoughts when I thought I heard my mum's phone ringing.
She appeared to answer because I heard her speaking in fluent Arabic."yeah, of course, dear..I know we had problems in the past, but It's time to be one big supportive happy family..yeah, yeah..of course you can come tomorrow..okay, see you then."
Curiousity got the best of me as I headed out of my room towards the living room.
I heard Allison yell."mum, What's your deal ?! You're bringing them here ? In this Villa ? After all the time we stayed away from them !"
"calm down, sweetie ! It's not the end of the world ! They don't know about how rich and famous we are."Allison yelled again.
"Then why is she calling ?! They can't know about Rajwan ! Or Dad ! Or that Adelle is in love with America's first son ! Or that My famous boyfriend is so much better than their faces !"Just then, I heard Rajwan speaking.
"Allison, calm down."
He, too, came out of his room due to Allison's yelling.I stood in front of my mum in the living room, waiting for an explanation.
"oh, Adelle. Haven't you heard ? Mum is inviting the scorpions !"Let me tell you about those.
The scorpions are my biological dad's sisters, you might ask "they're your aunts, how dare you call them that ?"
But I have a good reason.When you're in a bad situation that your poor dad just died, and your dear uncle wants to take everything your dad and your granddad once owned, and you need someone next to you. Not just as a family, but also to help you get through the case at the court.
I only found my mum's family right next to me, but not my dad's.
My mum continued the court case to make sure our uncle doesn't take everything from us, but they were never there.When your aunt comes after a long-time-no-see, you hear stuff like "I missed you guys a lot." and "I brought you stuff that you will enjoy."
But all I hear is, "Ew, What's up with your hair ? Why don't you straighten it ? It will look so much better."I think I got my point crossed.
