"I'm not going to spare you, I swear, " I yelled to Wyatt while running behind him in our backyard.

"Stop running or you will get hurt, " dad shouted at us.

"Why are you running behind him?" My mother asked.

"Yes, why are you running behind me?" Wyatt asked now taking shelter behind mom.

"This morning he woke me up by throwing a bucket of cold water. Yes a freaking bucket of cold water which resulted in me falling on the ground and running behind him, " I said while having at him. My mom and dad looked at him.

"I was trying to wake her up but when I didn't receive any reply I opened her door..."

"How did you opened my door?" I asked.

"Through a spare key. So where I was, yeah, I went in and tried to wake her up. But she didn't move and I thought she died. So to make sure I was correct I did it, " he said with a shrug.

"Wait she was sleeping on her bed, " mom asked with wide eyes.

"Mom I'll never talk to you, " I said and went to hug my dad. "He's the only one who loves me, " I said.

"He should, after all, he is the one who adopted you, " Wyatt said.

"Dad."

"No Brownie he is jealous because he is the one who is adopted, " dad said.

"Mom, " Wyatt complained.

"Enough, don't you have a college to attend?" Mom asked.

"Shit I'll be late for you Wyatt, " I said and went in.

I went to my room and took out an oversize sweatshirt and leggings from my wardrobe.
"Sorry, no bath now, " I said to my reflection.

"Bye, Dad, bye mom, " I shouted while putting my sneakers on.

"Have one toast, " mom shouted.

"Don't worry I'll have food from the canteen, " I shouted and went out.

After reaching college, I went to the canteen for food. I had a chocolate smoothie and went to my class after drinking it. You won't believe that I had a class with Aakav. The arrogant, rude bastard. And the worst part of the class is I had to sit beside him and we have to sit like that for the rest of the year. Other than that everything was ok.

Now I'm laying on my bed and sleep is the last thing on my mind. So I sneak out of my window and ran towards the wood which is not so far from my house.

I sat near the lake dipping my feet in it. Suddenly I heard some noise behind a tree and then some animal step out of the tree. It was not just any animal it was a wolf. Its eyes were red and saliva was dripping from its tongue. I quickly stood up.

"Good wolf. Don't eat me. I'm not tasty and I'll not be able to satisfy your hunger, " I said while taking some steps backwards. Suddenly the wolf leapt forward and I blocked my face and waited for the impact. But it never happened. I didn't remove my hands from my face fearing that if I do so the wolf would eat me.

"Are you for real? Standing in the middle of a forest at midnight blocking her face?" I heard a familiar voice saying. I removed my hands from my face and saw him standing there trying his best to hide his smile. I looked around for the wolf. But he was not present.

"A wolf was here trying to eat me alive, " I said to him.

"A wolf? Really?" He asked sounding surprised.

"Yes."

"Maybe it ran away seeing you, " Aakav replied.

"Hahaha very funny, " I said and turned around to go home.

"If any wolf comes then show it your face it will go away for sure, " he said and then started to laugh at his silly joke. Without giving any importance to his word I went on my way.

"What does he think of himself? Huh? Show your face and the wolf will run away, " I mimicked him and then heard some noise.

"Oh no not again, " I blocked my face before seeing who was making the noise.

"Wolf go away. You are very good. Go and sleep. Your family is missing you, " I said all this while my hand covered my face. I felt something pulling my shirt. I looked down through the gap of my fingers and jumped away. It was a wolf bit this wolf is not scary. Although it's much larger than the other one. Its fur is grey with white beneath his belly. Its eyes were of orange colour. But still, if a wolf is not scary it doesn't mean it will not eat you. A wolf is a wolf. I took small steps backwards while facing him and like a clumsy girl I am, I tripped over a small stone and fell down.

And seeing it as a chance the wolf came towards me.

Oh God, I'll never get the chance to take revenge from Wyatt for what he did today. Hell, I'll never get the chance to take revenge from him for eating my chocolates, I thought. And then it put his head in the crook of my neck.

Why did he sniff? Oh, of course, trying to smell his dinner before eating, I thought. Then it put its head on my lap. Without thinking I started to stroke his fur and he purring.

"Good wolf, I have to go, " I said and tried to put his head off of my lap. But it didn't budge.

"I promise I'll come tomorrow, " this made him sit up. I stood up. He forwarded his right paw to me. I took it. He lowered his and lead me out of the forest.

I climbed into my room through the window. Then I pulled the blankets in which served as a rope and climbed on my bed. After struggling for five minutes, I threw my pillow on the ground followed by me. I spread my hands and legs in a different direction and fell asleep.
