Tricked Part 1

       Esme packed the things that she shopped and put them neatly in the luggage bag. She had Christmas gifts for everyone and just before Christmas, they are going to leave. So, the rest of the days, she's going to advance reading. She topped the quizzes and other exams and her performance are also outstanding. She's doing it for the family that takes care of her and mostly for Laurence. She promised him. Soon, he'll marry her. And although she's married to him, he'll let her do things that she wanted to do. She will always stick to that promise.

"Oh, wow. You have a lot of things there." She stopped and looked up at Percy.

"Dad!" She ran to him and hugged him. Percy kissed her temple.

"Your mom is here too."

"Why did you call?" She asked. Damn, if Laurence is still in her room they would've got caught.

"It is no longer a surprise if we tell you," Ashaya said and she hugged her.
