After dinner, which they had in silence and left in silence cos Harmony had refused to talk with anyone.
Kendall knocked on her door but there was no response, then she opened it when she find it unlocked.
She found Harmony curled up on her be-d.
With a worried look she rushed to her side. “Harmony are you okay?”
There she found Harmony shivering un-der the duvet which made her panic.
“What the… Harmony are you okay? ” she shouted.
“Mooomm! ”
**
Few hours, Harmony was slee-ping peacefully in her room after being attended to by a doctor, when Billie and her Mom arrived.
“Is she okay now? ” Billie’s mother asked.
“Yes she’s fine, she just had fever.” harmony’s mom replied.
“Thank God.”
She smiled at Billie. “Hi son, thanks for coming. ”
Billie just smiled in reply, he wouldn’t have been here if her mother hasn’t blackmailed her.
“She’s slee-ping, I would have take you to her room. ” Harmony’s mom explained.
“It’s okay, don’t disturb her just tell her we were here. ” Billie replied politely.
Like he wanted to see her anyway.
“Aww that’s so sweet of you.” she cooed and Billie mother smiled proudly.
Speaking of the devil, Harmony walked down the stairs looking horrible as ever. Hair disheveled, and face stained with mascara, not aware of people’s pres£nce in the living room she walked in to the kitchen and c@m£ back few minutes later with a pot hvgged to her che-st and hand di-pped inside of it as she ate and li-ck her hand.
Her mother face turned red, she couldn’t look at Billie and her mother.
Billie’s mother look disgusted and Billie loud laughter made Harmony aware that she was being watched.
She looked up and she saw three people staring at her. She dropped the pot on the floor and ran until she reached her room, slam the door and ran into the bathroom and slam the door locking it up.
She walked in front of the mirror and screamed again louder this time, that made Kendall to curse her from her room.
She turn on the tap and washed her hand then her face. She had a quic-k shower and change into a new clothes. Still in the bathroom, she contemplate if she should still go downstairs or not.
She doesn’t want to see the j£rk face again so she decided to stay in her room instead.
Opening the bathroom door, she saw someone standing in front of her toy shelf.
“How do you get in?”
“Really? You still pl@ywith toys. ”
“I asked you a question. How did you get inside my room? ” she glare at him.
“Your door was wi-de open. ”
“I remember closing the door when I c@m£ in. ”
“Well maybe a ghost entered your room and forgot to close the door. ”
“Fool, I don’t believe in ghosts. ” Harmony scoffed.
“Duh.. But you still pl@ywith toys and damn your room look like a two year old’s.” Billie shake his head.
“Listen Blake, I don’t want any trouble so get out. ”
“I’m sure you meant Billie right? ”
“Whatever, just…” she st©pped when Billie gr-ab one of her dolls and destroy it.
“You….”she gritted her teeth angrily as she bend down to pick them up.
“The doll looks just like you. ”
“j£rk. “Harmony hit him on the face angrily unknowingly to her, the doll she was holding has entered his eyes.
Billie gr-unt in pain holding the eyes.
**
Few minutes later, they both sat down on the be-d in silence. Billie had a bag of ice pressed against the injured eyes.
“You’re a psycho, you know that right? ” Billie spoke up first.
“So are you.” Harmony replied.
Silence took over again.
“Do you really wanna marry me. “Harmony asked.
“No way! ”
“But mom said you have agreed, that’s why I agreed too. ”
“Mom told me the same thing also. ”
“Why are they forcing us to get married. ”
“Listen, just tell your mom you don’t want to get married to me. Remember I’m a psycho. ”
Harmony smiled. “So you admit you’re a psychopath ”
She grinned and giggled, Billie just stared at her, he thought she looks adorable. Of course Harmony didn’t notice.
Billie couldn’t help but smile also.
“Told ya, you look like your doll. “Billie tea-sed and laughed.
Harmony move to gr-ab the pillow, Billie ran out of the room immediately.
He got downstairs and couldn’t find his mother.
“Your mother left, she said you should stay here cos it’s alre-ady late. It’s almost midnight. ” Harmony’s mother said.
Billie frowned upon hearing that, he hates slee-ping outside his home.
He was about replying when someone gr@bb£d his wrist, he looked at Harmony beside her.
“Let me take you to your room. “Harmony smiled staring at him.
How can someone smile be this beautiful.” he thought lost staring at her again.
