The Angel has Horns

Chapter 13. The Games

"What are we doing here again?"

"Oh, come on, Sadie. Just live a little. It's gonna be fun!"

Fun, my ass.

Sadie couldn't help but glare at Sabina who was busy focusing on the shuttlecock waiting to be thrown at them.

Why was she here anyway?

Sadie can remember herself arriving at their mansion to talk to her dad to consult her plan for her hotel. After a good three-day rest to get away from basically anything, she was thinking that it was probably best to convert her attention on her business temporarily rather than sulking on her crappy loveless life. However, when she arrived at their house, it was Sabina who greeted her at the doorstep and then immediately dragged her to her twin's room where she was given sports clothes. The other parts that came after that became hazy for Sadie because the next thing she knew, she was already at a park with Jaden and Daniel greeting them.

"I don't want to play."

"Oh come on, sis. Don't be such a wuss." Sabina smiled sweetly at her. "Come on. Do it for me." She clasped her hands and pouted her lips while looking cute and bubbly at her frowning sister. But Sadie was not deterred.

"Why the fuck did you even made me wear a short?"

"What's wrong with that?"

"Oh, I don't know. My butt is close to seeing the outside world because of this. It's too freaking short!"

Sabina turned to her with a look like Sadie's not getting the memo. "Uhh, that's why they're called shorts. You know? Like they're shorts because their length is short. That's why you can easily differentiate them from jeans."

Sabina even smiled at herself as if she was proud with that knowledge. Because of that, Sadie closed her eyes and did a facepalm.

Fuckin' idiot.

This is the sister she went to Harvard with? The one who was praised for being smart?

Sadie rolled her eyes and just decided to ride along with her sister for a game of badminton, of course with Daniel and Jaden playing too as the other team.

"Ready?" Daniel shouted from the other side of the court.

"Ready, hunny bun!" Sabina waved like a child.

Hunny bun?

Sadie's face contorted in disgust after hearing Sabina's nickname of Daniel.

What is even a hunny bun? A food? A bun wrapped in complete honey? Or an animal dressed in flavoring? Most adults would probably associate hunny bun from a pedo talking to his or her sugar baby. Yuck!

"Sadie!" She heard Sabina screaming.

What?

Just before Sadie could even manage to speak a word, a shuttlecock flew straight unto her head that Sadie can't help but yowl in both shock and pain.

"What the fuck?"

"I thought you both were ready?" Daniel said.

"Then why did you point it straight to where I am?"

"I didn't." He chuckled then pointed at the person beside him. "He did."

Sadie looked at Jaden who was casually posing like a model with his right leg bent forward on his other leg using his racket as a cane.

"They say a good smash is a nice start." He smirked then shrugged. "Shall we proceed? Or maybe little Sadie's got a booboo that we have to postpone?"
