A blunt pain spread through the side of my torso.
I practically flew out of the bed and onto the floor on the other side of the room, trying to escape my attacker.
As I crouched down on the opposite side of the room, I looked over the bed and to the door.
My step sister was the only one there.
'That explains it I said to my self as I stood up slowly and rubbed my sore side.
"Emily... Your back from boarding school... Why?"
My step sister smiled an evil smile.
"I was given a few days off because of the big day"
"Big day?" I asked, confused.
"Oh, you hopeless little failure, have you forgotten?" she said, spitting hurtful words at me while asking me that question.
"I... I guess so... Care to share with the rest of the class what this 'Big Day is?"
Emily evil smile turned into a frown.
"You think you being funny?!" she said with a dark and displeased tone.
_______________________
I think it's time to pause and explain my situation.
My name is Adrian Wilbur.
I turn 19 this year.
I'm a newly graduated student, I had majored in Studio Art and History.
I'm an Otaku with many interests including Art, Writing, Cartoons, Anime, Manga, History, Harry Potter, superhero movies and even a little bit of physics.
The she-devil with a bad temper is my step-sister, Emily.
The reason she hates me... Well, that'll most likely always remain a mystery.
Why is she in my room?
Well, it's to wake me up.
But why did she kick me in the side? Well that is because A) she hates my guts and wishes to see me suffer, and B) she is the most ruthless, sociopathic, Crazy Bitch I've ever met.
But she's my Dads' GirlFriends' Daughter, so I have to put up with it, I can't even snitch on her about it, because not only does she hate me, but my entire family hate me as well.
Let's start with why they hate me.
My father hates me because I'm the reason my mother died. She had given birth to me and a few days later, she had died due to a weakened immune system and general weakness caused by giving birth to me.
My Step-Mother hates me because she sees me as a lazy good for nothing arrogant idiot who is taking away the money that could be used on her.
And that's all the family I have. (not counting she-devil)
My father was an only child and his parents and all that are dead as well.
But despite all that I guess I can't hate him, I can hate the other two all I want, just not him.
He gives me a weekly allowance, I buy whatever I want to with it and he doesn't poke into my affairs without any cause to do so. This only happens when my sister frames me for stealing money out of his account.
But that's enough about that, lets get back to the story, shall we.
_______________________
"..." I stood there in silence, not wishing to get the living crap beat out of me.
"That's what I thought!" she said storming out of my room, muttering things under her breather, most likely cursing me.
After a few minutes, I was ready for the day.
I had dressed in nice long black pants, a white dress shirt and a navy blue jacket. I had my wallet, phone and house keys in my pockets. And I was just about to exit my room when my father blocked my way.
He glared at me, inspecting and mentally scrutinising me.
"I guess it will do, I just hoped that you'd have enough sense to dress appropriately for my wedding, apparently I had set the bar much too high for you" he said walking down the hall to check on Emily.
Ignoring my father scathing remarks and hateful attitude, I walked out into the hallway and went towards the kitchen.
Thankfully, it was empty.
I grabbed a pre made sandwich I had made the day before it of the fridge and are it quickly, Hoping to be able to dodge the walking bag of hatred that was Emily before she could walk into the kitchen.
Unfortunately, life was never that kind to me.
As soon as I wet to leave, sue appeared at the hallway entrance to the kitchen.
I frose and begged to the Gods that father would walk in after her.
But he didn't.
It was always when he wasn't around that she decided to strike where it hurts the most.
"So... How does it feel?"
"How does what feel?"
"Oh, you know... That my mother is about to replace your whore of a mother in Dads Heart?"
My fists clenched in anger and my face darkened.
"Oh, was this, is this a fighting spirit, I thought I whipped that out of you long ago"
Instead of trying to rip the bitches heart out, I walked away. Heading towards the sitting room, hoping to calm down before I started crying and feeling like my cheat was about to explode.
Luckily she didn't follow, she must have been hungry, because after I heard the fridge open, I also heard a few clangs of ceramic plates of the counter.
Must have been feasting on the souls of the dead, like the She-Satan she was.
When father came out, probably from the toilet, and saw Emily And me far away from each other, Her with a happy smile and me with a sorrowful and rage-filled frown, he didn't even question it.
He too and lost his spine long ago to the Satan like succubus that was Emily's mother, Karen. And never questioned the looks of sadness and rage on my face whenever he walked into a room where it was just Emily and me previously.
He didn't care enough about me to even bother.
After a long while, we gathered out front of the mansion-sized house and got into the car, where Fathers driver, Hamilton, was ready to take us to the scene where the crime against humanity was to soon take place.
The fancy Vineyard just outside of town.
After a long and uneventful car trip, we were ushered into the vineyard main hall.
Father had given us each a task.
Emily was to check up on Karen and make sure that anything that could go wrong, didn't happen.
I, on the other hand, was told to stay out of the way and not make a fool of my self and ruin his Reputation.
I begrudgingly nodded and went off to find somewhere with reliable internet and search the web.
After a bit of searching, I found an unused area of the Vineyard, mostly likely used for storage. It had pretty good Internet access and the far away location meant hat I could watch videos in peace.
I mostly watched anime and up youtube ranking videos about various animes, I would then go forth and comment on them if I disagreed with their evaluations.
After I got bored of that, I watched the trailer for the new marvel movies coming out this year.
After that, I just searched through Harry Potter fanfictions.
After a few hours of keeping up to date with all the things I liked and of what would most likely be the happiest moments of the day.
Emily and Karen came stroling down the corridor, most likely making there way to one of the changing rooms, maybe something had went wrong with the other one?.
I didn't say anything, but unfortunately they did.
"Adrian, what are you doing Sculking around the place like a disgusting little ferrite?"
"I was trying to stay or of your way, I was hoping not to have to see you again till later, but unfortunately I have the displeasure of having to meet with you" my mouth went off without my consent, spewing out insults at Karen and Emily.
Karen, who had been right up in front of me, looked as calm as ever, by in her eyes, I saw nothing but contempt and disgust for my very existence.
Then with a mighty smack and a heavy stinging sensation, she slapped me in the face.
I said nothing, it wasn't the first time this had happened, and it probably wouldn't be the last today.
With that they both left, saying nothing and not even looking back.
