"what's ruckus about " Lisa asked in sleepy stance to her second sister who slept beside her. she asked her to know about scream which was coming over downstair. after few minutes, alarm started to buzz. but no response was coming over from her side. Lisa started groping to stop nonstop clanging which was coming over to the alarm and it was laid on the table . Lisa find out she was unable to reach out.
she get up to stop buzzing sound despite not wanting. after stopping the alarm, she lay again on the bed. still cacophony was coming over by downward. she opened her eyes to take a look of herself another side . but her second sister was not there.
"Heloice you are so heartless. this annoying tone was set up for you to study in the morning ,not for me. at least you should have to stop that damn sound after waking up." she grumbled .
Lisa had been grudged against her second sister ,Heloice. coz, this alarm tune was her favourite song. but now she started to get up in early daybreak with this music. this tone annoys her every morning.
she couldn't sleep now so,she decided to take a look why is it still so noisy. Lisa was still in slumber. she walked downstair and asked her mom. "what the heck happened,mom ?"
her mom was about to burst into tear and trying to say " your brother has eloped with someone."
'"what" Lisa uttered in shock. she was no more sleepy right now.
"how can you be so sure? he must be in the bathroom." Lisa said continue.
" no,he was not there. I have already checked all over. look at the threshold. it's locked by outside and his room is empty. what on earth he has gone at this hour". her voice was getting trailed off.
she took a glance at kitchen cabin. where Heloice was engrossed to brew breakfast in calm just like nothing happened. but she says nothing to her. Heloice was a little taller than her. that's why everyone who has seen them at first, they speculated that Lisa is younger than her. Lisa knows her flair is always like this since childhood .she is cold like her name. but it doesn't matter for her mom and dad either. because, she is meek and diligence child for them.
then, she turned towards her father in shock. who had been busy on the call to trace whereabouts of brother but it was all in vain.
Lisa was endeavouring to pacify her. "mom, Oliver is not that kind of kid. before doing something he'd take your permit." but it becomes more worsen then her imagination.
home's ambient poured into her scream.she whinned "then he must have been kidnapped."
"can you stop foreboding..... he had always kept defiant attitude. he didn't listen to anyone." her dad said in grimly to her mom. he was in tense.
Lisa said to her mom " mom, don't be afraid I am going to rummage every corner of house. and send 'Rosy' in the alley to find him. Rosy is the third sister of her and forth number in sibling. she was already sixteen years old. but she looked like more younger than her real age.
" wake up, Rosy. Rosy, wake up."
she clattered the door in hurriedly . then, one round face pops out behind the door. " what's the matter, sis? " she said in slumber voice.
"Oliver is not here. you have to go seek him into the alley. and main gate, it is locked. so, you have to lunged the wall.you have light weight. we can only count on you . I am sure you are the only one who can cross the wall." she reassured her while getting her down the stair.
Rosy denied to go out and said " I haven't brushed yet . give me just five minutes." but when she saw her mom's weeping face . she said " ok ,I am going ."
'as' she lunged the wall . Oliver was stand front of gate and trying to open the gate . he looks at her and said ,"oh no, I am late. what am I supposed to do? dad will definitely gonna kill me." he thought he will be back before mom and dad woke up.
as, Rosy saw him. she shouted "mom brother has come back . "
he said in grumpy. " that's what I can expect you, my stupid little sister. "
her mom and dad comes out from the house impatiently. he opened the gate and perplexed to see mom and dad's face expression. he was in indecisive to make up things. so,he tossed up last excuse.
he stammered. "what happened, mom.....I was just jogging. it was my first day. I left without asking you. "
he added. " but, I had told big sis at last night. if you don't believe me then, asked to 'big sis.' " for him it was more plausible excuse.
her mom and dad, they look at him dubiously.
and Lisa, she was trying to remember when he said to me.
"no, you aren't . i was with her until morning . but, I hadn't seen you to met her." it was 'Heloice' smug voice. who had been come out to the house with a glass of milk.
"oh,I had forgotten." Lisa deemed his gesture. Lisa's gaze narrowed into slit towards Oliver.
."mom let him off. he have to go to school drop Rosy "
her mom started to throw a tantrum on him.
she scolded " look at your sisters, all are deligent and tactful. specially , your big sis, she is more obedient then all of you. but you , you are totally different. you should learn from her."
now,it was his father's turn. but he said nothing only gave a glared at him and turned back. he gets premonition, ' father must have been really very angry.'
his dad is the only one person whose glare is enough for shudder to him. he thought " strange,why father is hush this time." it made him uncomfortable.
" may be today is Lisa's blind date. that's why no one is very concerned about you." that voice was coming over behind his solder. that harsh sound must be heloice. but he didn't say anything. because, he had been feeling guilty.
