Chelsea’s Pov:
I returned home from school and met dad in the sitting room, going throu-gh a magazine.
Hmph
“Good evening, dad” I greeted casually and tried walking away, but he called back my attention.
“How was school today, Chelsea?” He asked, fli-pping throu-gh the pages of the magazine.
“Yeah…it was fine” I rolled my eyes.
“I guess….mum isn’t home, right?”
“No. She’s still at the office”.
“Perfect” I grumbled and tried walking away again.
“Are you angry with id, Chelsea?” He called back my attention again.
What the heck??
“Seriously dad; what do you expect?” I snapped and for the first time since I arrived, he lifted his face from the magazine to look at me.
“You nee-d to un-derstand this – Chelsea. Whatever your mum and I are doing is actually for your benefit…”
“Oh! plea-se…what’s the nee-d of having a wealthy lifestyle when I feel so alone?” I snapped.
“I get it – I live like a princess, I have all I want, but not all I nee-d. I don’t have my parents’ attention!” I said, almost yelling
And he sighed.
“I un-derstand you, Chelsea. But don’t worry, soon enough, we’ll have all the time in the world to ourselves” he said and I scoffed.
“Old story” I rolled my eyed and walked away.
Damn it! I just nee-ded to leave this place.

Delaney’s pov:
I stared keenly at the woman as she smiled mischievously.
“So, this is going to be the plan and plea-se Delaney, don’t fail me okay?” She breathed out and made me seat on a chair beside the mirror; she also sat down.
“Okay ma’am, I’m going to try my best.” I smiled nervously.
“So…” She drew closer to me and whispered some words inside my ear while I nodded my head un-derstandably.
“So, can you do it?” She asked with a sided smile.
“Uh… Yes… Ma’am, I can.” I stuttered and nodded my head positively.
“Alright, just wait a little for some minutes before you’ll carry out the plan.” She smiled.
“Alright ma’am.”

Xavier’s pov:
After I had gotten dressed up in a pair of white trou-sers and white shi-t, I sat on t©p of my be-d.
Rio alre-ady left seconds ago because he had an urgent call and he had to scream my name and tell me he was going.
I took my phone and unlocked it. Immediately, a message popped on my screen from Chelsea.
Urgh! I mentally gro-an ed.
We just saw each other not less than an hour ago and now she alre-ady messaged?
“Hey Xavier.”
I grumbled lightly before typing a quic-k reply.
“Hey Chels.”
“I just wanted to check up on you.”
“Yeah, thanks.” I typed back and dropped my phone.
I suddenly felt tasty and I decided to get water from the kitchen.
I stood up and went towards the door. I opened the door and got out.
I climbe-d down the stairs and I roamed my eyes around the sitting room but it was empty.
There was no sign of Delaney. I don’t even know why exactly why I even care if she’s in the sitting room or what.
Perhaps, it’s because she broke a glas-s cu-p and I wanted to know if she was still there picking the broken bottles.
*
I ignored what ever my subconsciousness was saying and made my way to the kitchen.

Delaney’s pov:
I got to the kitchen and her son; Xavier, wasn’t there.
I waited patiently until I heard footsteps.
I walked to the door and peeped fortunately for me, it was Xavier coming.
I quic-kly took the cu-p I kept and let it fall from my hand.
I bent to pick it and I pricked my tiny f!nger.
And immediately, the door opened and Xavier walked in.
He crea-sed his eyebrows and stared at me like I’m some piece of dirt.
plea-se let this plan work! I prayed fervently in my heart as I stared my alre-ady bleeding f!nger.
“Ouch!” I winced lightly as my blood dropped on the floor.
He looked at me and rolled his eyes.
“Always clumsy.” He muttered and walked past me.
I took a quic-k glance at him and he was drinking water.
Gosh! He looked so cute as he drank elegantly from the cu-p.
When he was done, he li-cked hisl-ips and dropped the cu-p.
I took my gaze back to my bleeding f!nger and thank goodness the pain wasn’t too much.
It was just a slight pain but the blood coming out it’s as if I’ve gotten a big injury.
He grumbled angrily and rolled his eyes annoyingly.
He shook his head pitifully and made for the door.
Oh God let this plan work!
I winced again and tried tou-ching my injured f!nger when I felt a hand gr-ab my wrist.
“You’re so clumsy, aren’t you?” He gro-an ed angrily.
He crouched in front of me and placed my hand on his.
“I don’t know why mom’s still keeping you in this house!” He grumbled rudely.
This guy sure deserve an award for the being rude and arrogant.
He doesn’t even smile.
“Just stand up.” He gro-an ed authoritatively and help me stand up.
“And Delaney or whatever you call yourself, st©p trying to pick broken pieces of anything you break, it’s harmful.
Just call one of the maids and it’d be taken care of.” He snorted.
“I don’t even know which of the planet you fell from that you’re behaving like… Argh! I don’t even know.” He frowned.
“I’m sorry… If I make you feel uncomfortable with my pres£nce in this house.” I muttered lowly. I feel so intimid@t£d and nervous with his looks and harsh words.
“You should be!” He snappy and purposely pressed my f!nger that got injured lightly while I winced loudly.
“I’ll have a maid clean up this mess.
Meanwhile, let’s go to my room so I can treat your f!nger.”
I didn’t say anything but followed him like an obe-dient puppy.
We got to his room and he walked in while I trailed behind him.
He made me seat on the be-d and he brou-ght out a weird box from side of his be-d.
“This is a first aid kit in case you don’t know.” He said and rolled his eyes.
Hmm, what’s a first aid kit?
He opened the kit and brou-ght out some strange objects from it.
He told me their names begrudgingly and it was just few of the object names that as-similated. The other names were too long for me to even pronounce.
He sat beside me on the be-d and put a cotton wool; like what he had called it earlier on a bottle that I didn’t know the name.
Then, he placed it on my f!nger.
I winced as the cold cotton wool t©uçhed my f!nger, it was painful.
After doing other strange things on my f!nger, he brou-ght out what he called a plaster.
He took my hand and after a little hesitation, he started b!owing air on it.
Jeez! It felt so good.
I watched him keenly and admiringly as he continued to b!ow air into it.
Suddenly, it hurt and I found myself screaming.
“Arghh!” I screamed and jumped on him, holding him ti-ght.
“Delaney!” He hushed, but i didn’t let him go as I wra-pped my hand around him.
Well, that was p@rt of the woman’s plan.
And immediately, the door opened, revea-ling Chelsea.
 
 
Episode 22
Chelsea’s pov:
My jaw dropped in shock as I stared at the position in which Xavier and the strange girl were.
Xavier quic-kly pushed her off his b©dy and stood up from the be-d.
I c@m£ all the way from house to see Xavier and let’s enjoy each other’s company and now all I get is this?
It’s so heartbreaking.
“Oh Chels, you are here.” He muttered and scratched the back of his head awkwardly.
I gave the strange girl a death glare and stomped out of the room.
“Chelsea!” I heard Xavier call out to me but I didn’t even st©p walking or even spare him a side glance.

Delaney’s pov:
I sighed and ru-bbe-d my forehead.
Xavier turned and gave me a long and angry stare before finally running after Chelsea.
Oh my! Did I do something wrong?
Why did that lady have to come in at the wrong time, huh?
As I got out of his room and closed the door, the woman suddenly walked up to me with a smile.
She looked around carefully and held me by the wrist.
She dragged me along with her.
We got to her room and we both went inside.
She made me seat on the be-d and we sat facing each other.
“So, how did it go?” She grinned and held my hand.
How about a little prank?
Yeah, that’ll do.
She looked so hopeful and I could tell she really nee-ded a positive reply.
“C’mon Delaney, how was it?” She urged me and stared intently at me.
“Well… Erm ma’am. I’m sorry.
It didn’t work out well.” I said forlornly and bent my head.
“Huh?” She asked and I could s-en-se a hint of disappointment in her voice.
I took my gaze to look at her and her smile had faded. Her face dropped in disappointment.
“It worked!” I suddenly yelled happily. The woman stared at me surprisingly.
“I was just trying to pu-ll your legs. It worked!” I giggled and I was expecting a hvg or something, instead I got a sma-ck on the head.
“Ouch!” I winced though it wasn’t painful.
“Jeez Delaney, you almost gave me an heart attack. I was really sure that it was gonna work out well.” She said and smiled broadly.
She pu-ll-ed my cheeks pla-yfully and hvgged me.
“So, tell me the full details.” She said eagerly.
“Well, I acted according to plan. He was grumpy and all at first but eventually, he helped me.
He took me to his room and brou-ght out what he called a first aid kit and started doing some strange things to my f!nger.
He decided to b!ow air in my f!nger before he’ll finally put what he called a plaster around my f!nger.
And when it hurt a little, I screamed and jumped on him.
And boom! Chelsea opened the door and saw us in that position and she looked clearly pissed.” I explained and breathed out.
“Chelsea?” She asked and I nodded.
“Hm” she mumbled and placed her hand on her chin like she was thinking or something.
“Ma’am….Is there a problem?” I asked and she shook her head.
“Of Course, not. Come on” she replied and stood up with me.
*

Chelsea’s pov:
“Chelsea?” Xavier called calmly and held my arm.
“What!” I snapped at him and yanked his hand away from mine.
“Why are you suddenly pissed Chels? I didn’t do anything wrong, did I?” He scoffed and rolled his eyes.
“Really? You were in close proximity with that strange girl you know nothing about!
You’re alre-ady flir-ty with someone you ba-rely even know?” I huffed and ran my hand throu-gh my hair.
“And the last time I checked, it was none of your business!” He snapped, shocking the hell out of me.
“Xavier?” I called, more like a whisper as I stared at him.
“Look Chels, you’re taking this too far. You shouldn’t be thinking about something irrelevant because of how close you saw us.
I don’t even owe you an explanation.” He said and walked back into the house.
Argh!
That girl!
She’s gonna be a threat to me!
From the very first day I saw her, I never liked her and I knew she’s of no good.
I’m gonna give her a piece of my mind!
She better st©p whatever it us that she’s planning to take Xavier away from me.
He’s mine and mine alone!
If I have to make her leave this house, then I will. As long as she’s far away from Xavier.
*

“Hey you! I want to have a word with you.” I snapped at the girl as she made to go to the kitchen.
She bent her head lowly and walked sluggishly towards me; more like she’s counting her every steps.
She got to where I stood beside the couch and I closed the remaining space in between us.
“What’s your name?” I asked and ran my eyes irritably at her.
Wait! Why didn’t I notice this soon enough?
She’s looking different in a better way.
And I swear, I felt jealous.
She’s so pretty with her long hair.
She’s really a threat to me in winning Xavier but I won’t allow it.
“Delaney.” She smiled sweetly.
“Now Delaney or whatever your name is, listen and listen very good. I don’t know where you c@m£ from and what your plans are all about, but I want to warn you to leave Xavier alone.
Don’t try to even get closer to him.
If I have to make you leave this house, then I will!
My eyes are on you!”

Hera’s Pov:
I felt myself lying on something cold and dirty.
I coughed and opened my eyes and discovered i was on dry land – covered with sand.
Was I there alre-ady? Could this be earth?
I coughed and stood up, then looked around.
I was stark na*ked!
Where were my leaves??
And where exactly was I?
And Delaney….
How do I find her??
It was getting so dark.
I looked around and sp©tted a group of strange people coming towards me.
Huh?
Why’re they looking so different?
I mean….their hair was short, and…they didn’t seem to have bo*bs as well.
They just looked straight and different.
“Woahhh! Who thefu-ck do we have here??” One of them exclaimed and chuckled with the rest.
Maybe I should ask them about Delaney? Could it be possible they’ve seen her?
“Young lady, are you lost or something?” Another asked and I looked around.
“Um…..I’m looking for someone – Delaney. Have you seen her?” I asked and they looked at each other and laughed.
“Who’s Delaney?’ Another asked.
“She….She was my friend. But she stole from us and ran away. So, I’m looking for her” I answered and they stared at me like I was insane or something.
Suddenly, they whispered something amongst themselves and turned back to look at me.
“Well….we know where you can find her. Come with us” one of them said with a smile.
 
 
TBC.
