“What are you doing here?” Stella asked him, and Theo smiled at her. “I went to your house, and your father told me that you would be here!” Theo answered, and Stella nodded her head. “You want something from me?” Stella asked him again, and Theo just looked at her.
“Why don’t you go outside and talk privately?” Flora told them and held Stella’s back. “Just stay here-
“Go on!” Flora cut what her brother was saying and pushed Stella towards Theo. “I guess you are right!” Stella answered and looked at Theo. “Let’s go?” Theo asked her, and Stella nodded her head.
They went outside, and Flora just watched them leave. “You shouldn’t let her with him!” Sky told his sister, “Why?” Flora asked him, and Sky just shook his head in disbelief. “Let her be happy!” Flora said and walked back into her room. “She can be happy alone!” Sky answered and went outside.
Sky was outside their house and looked for them, but he couldn’t find them. “Where are they?” Sky asked himself and entered the woods.
“Sky!” Tyros accidentally met Sky inside the woods, “Did you see them?” Sky asked him right away. “Them?” Tyros asked him back, and Sky nodded his head. “Stella is with Theo!” Sky answered, and that’s when Brandon appeared.
“He’s here?” Brandon asked Sky, but Sky didn’t say anything. “I need to find them. I need to go!” Sky told them and walked away.
Stella was walking with Theo inside the woods when they noticed someone was following them. “Can you feel that?” Theo asked her, and she just nodded her head. “I will lure them, and you will keep walking.” Theo told her, and Stella kept on walking.
She reached the middle of the woods and turned around to see if someone was following her. She was scanning the area when Brandon appeared. “Are you enjoying my brother’s company now?” Brandon asked her, but Stella decided not to talk to him.
Stella started walking away, but Brandon grabbed her arm and made her turn around. “Let go of me!” She told him and tried to remove his hand. “Let’s talk!” Brandon told her, and Stella felt dizzy. She fell to the ground, and Brandon carried her into a hidden place.
Stella woke up and felt her head as heavy as hell. “Where am I?” She asked herself and looked around. The place was familiar to her, but she couldn’t think about where exactly she was. “Hello!” She yelled to see if someone was with her.
The door opened, and she was blinded by the light. She closed her eyes but immediately opened them when she smelled a familiar scent. “I’m sorry!” She heard Brandon’s voice near her.
Stella couldn’t stop herself from smirking at him, “Don’t ever say that!” She whispered to him. “Why?” Brandon asked her, but she didn’t have the energy to answer him.
She decided to sleep again to regain her energy. She knew that she was safe because she was with Brandon.
“She fell asleep again!” Brandon told Tyros when he left the room. “What kind of herb was that?” Tyros asked him, and Brandon looked at him. “The salutary gave it to me.” Brandon answered, and Tyros nodded his head.
They were waiting in the living room when the door opened harshly. “Where is she?” Theo asked them and walked inside the house. “How did you find us?” Tyros was startled to see Theo there. “Answer me, kiddo!” Theo told him, which made Tyros look at Brandon.
“Leave now!” Brandon told his older brother, “I need to see her!” Theo said and glared at his younger brother. “I need to talk to her!” Brandon said, and Theo didn’t say anything.
They just looked at each other until Theo nodded his head, “You don’t need to drug here!” Theo told him and walked towards the main door. “I didn’t drug her!” Brandon answered, and Theo smiled at him. “That herb is a drug!” Theo said and opened the main door.
“I will see her tomorrow, Brandon!” Theo added and left the house. There was a moment of silence inside the house, and that’s when Tyros moved. “That was insane!” Tyros said and walked back and forth.
“I know he is planning something!” Brandon said and walked towards the room where Stella was sleeping. He opened the door and saw Stella sitting on the bed. “Are you okay?” He asked her, but Stella remained silent.
They stayed quiet for a while until Stella stood up from the bed and walked towards the door, “Where are you going?” Brandon asked her. “I want to go home!” Stella answered and tried to walk away. Brandon didn’t let her leave and blocked the path, “Come on, Brandon! Don’t be a kid! Let me go home!” Stella told him, but Brandon shook his head.
“We need to talk, Stella!” Brandon told her while blocking the way, “What for? We are done, Brandon!” Stella answered and tried to push him away. “We need to settle a lot of things!” Brandon told her, which made Stella stop. “Why? You already have the freedom you wanted from me. We are done and the accord between us is over.” Stella told him, and Brandon didn’t say anything.
“How did you find out?” Brandon asked her, and Stella smirked at him. “I am not stupid, Brandon!” Stella told him and walked into the living room.
Tyros was startled when Stella came out of the room, “I will go outside!” He said and waved at Brandon.
Brandon held Stella’s arm, which made Stella stop walking. “Let go of me!” Stella told him, but Brandon remained to hold her arm. “You are hurting me!” Stella added, and Brandon shook his head. “Don’t overreact, Stella!” Brandon told her, and Stella tried to calm herself. “Fine! Let’s talk!” She answered and sat on the couch.
Stella looked around and found herself in their old house. Brandon decided to renovate the house and it has two rooms now. “You are going to live here with my sister, right?” Stella asked him while looking around. “Daisha didn’t want to live here!” Brandon answered, and Stella nodded her head. “Yeah! Of course! She deserved to live in a huge mansion.” Stella said sarcastically to him, “She’s not like that-
“I know her more than you do!” Stella cut what Brandon was saying, which made Brandon look at her. “All of my life, I had been comparing myself to my sister! Yeah, she has everything that I don’t have! I am just a simple youngest child of our elders. Nothing is special about me, I’m not good at anything!” Stella started breaking down in front of Brandon.
Brandon was listening to her because he knew that Stella was holding a lot of problems right now. “I will not blame you for falling to Daisha. She’s so pretty and she has everything that every woman wants.” Stella added and smiled at Brandon. “I want to know more about your feelings!” Brandon told her, which made Stella stop talking.
Stella was thinking if Brandon was playing with her feelings, “What’s with you?” She asked him. Brandon sat beside her and tried to reach her hand. “We can talk without holding my hand!” Stella told him, and Brandon nodded his head. “Thank you for letting me live with Daisha! I didn’t give you any confusion, right?” Brandon asked her, and Stella glared at him seriously.
She wanted to hide her feelings for him, so she just nodded her head. “Are we done talking?” She asked him, and Brandon smiled at her. “Thank you, Stella!” Brandon told her, and Stella stood up from the couch. “I will go now!” Stella said and walked into the main door. “Let me accompany you!” Brandon offered her, but Stella shook her head. “I can go home alone!” Stella answered and opened the main door.
Stella walked away and saw Tyros waiting outside the house, “It is not my idea-
“It’s fine!” Stella cut what Tyros was saying, “Are you sure?” Tyros asked her, and she nodded her head. “Can you accompany me?” Stella asked him, and Tyros immediately nodded his head. “Let’s go!” She added, and they started walking away.
Brandon saw that Tyros was walking away with Stella, “She didn’t want my help!” He told himself and nodded his head. He sat on the couch and looked around, “This house is useless now!” He said while looking around.
Stella and Tyros were in the middle of the woods when Flora appeared, “Where have you been?” Flora asked and immediately went to Stella. “You don’t need to worry anymore! I am here now!” Stella answered her, and Flora immediately looked at Tyros. “What did you do to her?” She asked her boyfriend, and Tyros was ready to defend himself when Stella went between them.
“I am fine, Flora!” Stella told her, which made Flora stop attacking Tyros. “Let’s go home!” Flora said and rolled her eyes at Tyros. “I didn’t do anything!” Tyros yelled while watching them walk away.
“Theo was looking for you!” Flora told Stella when they reached Stella’s place. “I will message him later!” Stella answered, and Flora nodded her head. “Thank God, you are okay!” Flora said and tapped Stella’s shoulder. “You should go home now, Flora!” Stella told her, and Flora agreed with her.
“I will walk with her back home!” Tyros appeared, and Stella nodded her head. “Thank you!” Stella told him, and they started walking away. Stella decided to go inside their house when she couldn’t see them anymore. “Theo told me that you are with Brandon!” Remus appeared as soon as Stella entered their house.
“Yeah, we cleared a lot of things!” Stella answered and walked towards her room. “Are you not going to eat your dinner?” Remus asked his daughter, and Stella shook her head. “I’m full!” She answered and opened her room.
She went inside her room and lay on her bed, “Dang! That hurts!” She told herself. She was looking at the ceiling when she felt tears fall from her eyes. “I shouldn’t cry!” She was calming herself, but her eyes were betraying her. She started crying until her tears were gone.
Stella was tired of crying and fell asleep. When she woke up, she felt her eyes were swollen. “Gosh! I’m so ugly!” She told herself while looking in the mirror.
“Where are you going?” Remus asked his firstborn when he saw Daisha walking towards the main door while carrying a lot of bags. “I’m going to live with Brandon!” Daisha answered, and that’s when Stella went out of her room. They looked at each other, and Stella’s gaze went down to Daisha’s bag.
“Have fun!” Stella told her sister and went to the kitchen. She was looking for something to eat when someone held her arms. “Are you making fun of me, huh?” Daisha asked her and held her arm tightly, “Let go of me!” Stella told her and pushed her away.
“Stella!” Remus yelled at his younger daughter when he witnessed how Stella pushed Daisha. “What now?” Stella asked her father and looked at Daisha, “I hope you are happy!” She added and went back to her room. “STELLA!” Remus called his daughter, but it didn’t stop Stella from going to her room.
“You will stay here!” Remus told his firstborn and went to Stella’s room. “No! I will leave now!” Daisha answered her father and went to the main door. Remus didn’t know what he should do first, so he followed Daisha outside their house.
“I will take care of her, Elder Remus!” Brandon told him as soon as they met each other. “Daisha!” Remus called his daughter, but Daisha didn’t answer her father. “Let’s go, Brandon!” Daisha instructed him, and Brandon went inside the car.
Remus shook his head in disbelief while watching Brandon’s car leave. He went back inside their house and walked towards Stella’s room. He knocked on the door but Stella wasn’t answering him.
