Am now standing infront of a large mirror,staring at my reflection. Clad in a blood red figure hugging dress with a backless back. It was a dress that made me feel so good though i will never in my wildest dream dare walk in it. I could buy it to decorate my wardrobe.
Knock,knock the impatient Emma
"We don't have the whole day." She shouted.
"Am coming." I shouted back. Getting out of the fitting room waiting to see their reaction.
"Oh holy fudge." Whispered Emma and Lorenzo. Their reaction made me blush. Emma's jaw was dropping while Lorenzo looked at me as if i was his now hot ex-girlfriend.
"Hello there,are you two done
gawking at me?" I question them.Leaving their world of wonder Emma spoke.
"Wow, i never knew your are that hot.""Come on Emma,your told don't judge the book by it's cover." I tried joking with her. She just smiled and started crying. Oh no, typical Emma. She cried whenever she is that happy and this was the moment.
"Emma,don't be that happy. I can't wear this dress."
Wiping her tears she spoke.
"Says who? Lorenzo we are taking the dress."
"Sure pretty, Sandra pack the dress." Lorenzo instructed his secretary. Changing back to my clothes i handed back the dress.
"Will i be going barefooted?" I asked Emma.
"Don't worry sweetheart, its sorted." Lorenzo answered me. Sorted, how? It seemed this party was the perfect excuse Emma had found to doll me up. She had been the only person who was there for me after Lena decided to betray me. Though that was a past event, it was a fresh wound to my broken heart.We bid Lorenzo and Sandra goodbye and we left for home. This time Emma driving had becoming increasingly slow,since she had no rush. The party will happen tomorrow and i had more time to prepare. I remembered something.
"Emma," i called her.
"Mmh?"
"What's a fetch?" I curiously asked.
"A fetch? I don't know?" She answered.
"You don't know,but Lorenzo asked you if i was a fetch but you said i wasn't." I was confused. She answered as if she knew what a fetch was."Seriously, you don't know what a fetch is?" She shouted back. Seriously,just now she said she doesn't know what a fetch is.
"Are you suffering from amnesia?" Concerned washed over me. Was she sick?
"Ooh sorry, i was thinking about something else." She softly said."So,what's a fetch?" I asked her again.
"Do you have your phone?" What again i groaned inwardly, can't she answer me in simple term if it's something complicated.
"Yes."
"Then google." She answered while busting into fits of laughter. Does she think everything is a joke. She was starting to annoy me.
She suddenly stopped the car. I almost hit my head on the dashboard thank to the seatbelt a remembered to fasten.
"Did you see that bitch?" She asked,anger seeping from her blue eyes.
"Who? I didn't...." I wasn't even done talking to her,she alighted the car following that unfortunate soul.
I decided to see the bitch she saw. Standing at a distance was my sister and the person i vowed i will never set my eyes on her.
"Mum." Pauline Matthew, no wait, she is now Pauline Samuel. She is our birth mother. She left us with dad after his business went bankrupt.She left without a backward glance.Two years after she left, she got married to a billionare whose last son was the same age as my mum.I stood there too shocked to move. Emma spoke to her for a few second. She came back fumming.
"What did you tell her?" I asked Emma as she sat on the drivers seat."Nothing much, i told her she thought leaving us was a punishment but i was glad she left us."
"Emma!" I was so shocked she told mum that. She was crazy.She's our mum.
"You should have shown some respect." I was even more puzzled by her. She just rolled her eyes as she drove in total silence.Dad was playing some playstation with Edward. He was our oldest brother. He now runs dad company. Dad struggled to keep the company a float even though most share holder's left. He managed to keep until Edward graduated from business school.
"Welcome back." Dad shouted. He was busy trying his best to beat Edward but it was a futile cause.
"Dad, i think we shall order in." I told him.
"Why?" Dad asked us since he knew if we ordered in, we saw something depressing on our way home. By the looks we had, he thought it was the best idea to not inquire.
"Ok." Picking the house phone, i ordered pizza.I took a quick shower and changed into my pj before going down to have some dinner. Everyone was seated while chewing their pizza. I picked a plate and stuffed it with five pieces and a soda, when i felt a presence behind me.
"You can't eat all that." Emma cried.
"But am hungry." I cried back. Dad and Edward just stared at us and continued devouring their food.
"You need to supress your hunger." She calmly said to me.
"You want me to die with hunger?" I exclaimed.
"You won't die with hunger." She said as she took the plate of pizza and soda i was holding.
"You see that plate over there?" She asked as she pointed towards a plate of green vegetables.
"Salad!" Ooh no, i never knew she took this party thing too far.
"Yes,i don't want you to gain weight. You need to fit in that dress to crush your haters." She answered.
"No, i won't go to that party and i don't need to crush any haters." I said with finality.
"Party?" Dad and Edward asked in a chorus.
"Yes, she is going to this party she is like the guest of honor and Edward you will drop her." She said in one one breathe.
"Dad, i wasn't invited. She is making it up and i have made up my mind. Edward, please say no." I was at a brink of bursting as a pleaded with Edward.
"Look at your phone." Emma said as she prompted me with her head. Picking up my phone, i had a notification. True to her words, i had been invited."But..i.." i tried to find words to defend myself but i found none. I sadly went to pick the cold plate of salad staring at me. She was really cruel. I picked on the salad as i tried to chew the disgusting raw vegetables. She had turned me into a rabbit. The pizza looked delicious making my stomach grumble. After that long and tiring dinner, i went to bed, my stomach was still complaining since eating salad felt like going to bed on an empty stomach.
Wait, i had to find who was the host and what is a fetch before i slept. Taking my phone, i google the meaning of fetch.
"A doppelganger, it was just simple." I found myself laughing at my own silliness. It was that easy.I checked the last thing before sleeping.
"Who is the host?" I said loudly as i went through the notification.
"Holy ghost fire! Lena Johns!" I was in great shock. I will kill someone today."Emmmaaa!" I shrieked.
