Sisters Time!

I was sitting beside Rachael driving off to god knows where. That's not really a problem but the way she's been speeding on the road, recklessly breaking all the road rules like she's going to get us killed made so much uneasy.

"Fuck you bastard. Shove the fucking law into your Goddamn ass" that should be the sixth driver Rachael is yelling and cursing at, even after scratching his car.

"Rachael please Slow down a bit" I cautioned Rachael for the untempt time.

"And What's the fun in that?" Rachael snaps at me then scoffed.

"THIS IS MY BROTHERS CAR. I DRIVES ANYHOW I WANT" she screamed out through the window.

She shuffled music on the Media player and settled for some particular trap song. She increased the song to the highest volume, singing along with the lyrics, more like screaming. Tripling the speed of the car, she was now flying on the road. She seemed to be enjoying herself while me I was crushing with nervousness thinking she'll either get us killed or get us in trouble.

Not wanting to ruin the moment for her, I tried adapting to the 'fun' as she qualified. I let myself relax. Even though I didn't know some of the songs, I nods my head to it. Feed my eyes with view of the road that was rushing by us. I soon began seeing the fun in it as she upgraded to a zigzag driving. I've never drives with anyone before except mom taking to me to school. this sure was fun. I found myself cheering for Rachael and we were getting along pretty well.

After spending eternity on the road, Rachael finally pulled over at some building.

Honestly I was marveled at her driving skills, despite being all reckless she didn't get us killed though we nearly into trouble with road traffic officers which she cursed at.

"Wow you are such a skillful driver Rachael" I complimented, amazed.

"It's okay. I've been driving since 13 so..." she chuckled and shrug.

When we got out of the car, i realized she'd brought us to the mall.

"Rachael why would we come here. We already shopped more than enough wears with our brothers before"I said to her.

"Yeah as you said. With our brothers not us alone. Beside Antonio gave us enough money to buy whatever we want right?" She said with a shrug and held my wrist. "Now Sisters time!! Are you ready?" She cheered and I replied with a soft chuckle before proceeding into the mall.

Inside the mall was spacious and screamed expensive. As I anf rachel were moving about, we got funny stares from almost everyone. Probably amused with our striking resemblance. I didn't focus on that anyways. Rachael kept getting different bags, clothes and shoes.

I intends to shop a little even though I don't need cause I didn't want to squander my brothers money but Rachael I shouldn't ruin the fun and for once behaved like a teenager. I freely joined her to purchase different stuffs as much as we can. We had shopped three big bag each at the end.

The cash Antonio gave us wasn't enough so Rachael made use of the ATM to complete the balance.

I had so much fun with Rachael at the mall. After changing to different outfits we bought, we settled on a carton color pinafore with black sweat shirts inside. Same out fit.

Now Rachael told me we were going another place. I happily obliged.

Few minutes of reckless drive along the road, we pulled over before a cracked up building.

Looking closer at the building, it looked so familiar and... it gave me an eerie feeling. Still trying to remember how I'd been in this place, we both walked out the car.

Inside me I was burning with dread and nervousness but I tried to be brave for Rachael. I don't want to be a joy killer as she qualified.

As if noticing my Change of mood, racheal asked if I was alright. I nodded my head. She then told me we were at a PlayStation. Her favourite PlayStation.

I gulped and walked with her into the place. From the moment we walked in, everything came back. I remembered vividly, this was the same place my brothers use to bring me to meet men. All the computer stationed at different places, men scattered all over the places, vividly played in my head. Every faces here dwindled in the face of Greg.

The man who my brothers always takes me to.

Air left me again, all my organs went all hold.

I couldn't breath anymore and I suddenly couldn't stand anymore.

Racheal was telling me we should go in, her voice transferring from softeness to nervous and then rage when she starts asking me what happened? I couldn't talk. I couldn't breath. Neither can I walk.

I was pulled back to reality when I saw two people, my worst nightmare. Dennis and Samson they were at some distance walking towards my direction. My heart jumped when their eyes met mine and gaining back a little strength, I turned back and ran outside.

I heard racheal calling my name to stop but I didn't.

With my heart beating, I was running as if I was going to get killed.

I ran for like enternity and finally stopped at some area to catch my breath. God! The thought that my ex-brothers are here made my heart drummed faster than normal.

Or wait... what if Racheal had brought me here to my ex-brothers? Of course it could be possible. I mean I'd been suspicious of her new behavior and right now everything is just comfirmed. She couldn't suddenly be so nice to me all of a sudden. Who the hell does that? Little wonder she was so bent on going out alone with me. This was all her plan!

Tears filled my eyes. I was panting fervently to calm my nerves. I look around and luckily my brothers weren't in sight. Neither do racheal. I the relax I was at some playground.

My system went rigid when my eyes caught sight of the pool. The kids playing inside the pool all vanished in my vision and my father was lying lifeless on the pool. His skin sored from head to toe. I was panting heavily as I watch some heifty men lifts into the pool bringing my father out. Just then my brothers and mother arrived at the scene. Mother screamed at the sight of her husband while my brothers were all just stunned.

Flashback

"Will you wipe those crocodile tears off your face?" I was shocked as Dennis yelled at me for the first time.

We were all together in the ward where dad's lifeless body was covered in white. I had been crying while was petting me in her arm.

"You caused this. If you didn't insist on going to the beach and attempting to swim when you know you can't swim, dad wouldn't have died." Dennis yelled.

"Dennis!" Mum tried to caution but Samson interrupted her.

"Yes Mum... she killed dad. Clarrissa you killed father. This was all your fault. Why did you let him dive in to rescue you when you know he have critical Aquagenic urticaria" Samson yelled at me making more tears flow down my eyes.

"But I didn't..." I was yelling when Dennis slapped me across the face.

I gasped and his fiery eyes got me scared.

"Dennis what the hell have come over you?" Mum yelled.

"Don't tell me you are siding clarrisa on this mom. No matter what? She killed father." Jake added.

I felt a soft pat on my shoulder which brought me out of my flashback.

I flinched and my heart leapt as I thought my brothers were here but then I realized it was just some random guy.

He looks like he was in his early twenties but his Disposal got me scared. He had piercings and tattoos his hair was messy.

He asked me why I was carrying and wanted to touch me but I flinched away.

I asked him who he was, he just smiled and told me not to be scared of him.

But I was scared, really scared. In my heart I was praying he wouldn't be like racheal boss and try to molest me because for sure, no one is going to come for me.

Getting me more scared, he started asking me to be friends with him and when I don't him I didn't want to, he started imposing it on me. Insisting that I be his girlfriend.

"Stay away from me!!!" I screamed fearly in tears while taking retreating footsteps back.

"Can't do that babe. It's either I'm having you peacefully or I'm forcing it. Either way, you are gonna be mine." He smiled creepily, lusting over my body.

I was feeling really itching and disgusted. I tried to run away but he caught me by my waste tugging me to himself. I felt so weak, scared and hopeless but putting my tiny stretch into use, I was struggling with him and shouting for help. No one seem to be coming until I heard.

"What the fuck are you doing with my sister?" The guy break loose from me as we turned to meet racheal's angry gaze.

"Wow... twins?" The guy exclaimed in amusement after exchanging look between me and Racheal. Racheal clenched her jaw and did something I didn't expect.

She threw a pouch at the guy's face. While the guy winced and held his busted lips, Racheal moved forward to ask if I was okay but then the guy angrily dragged Racheal back by her hair and flung her to the ground.

"How dare you bitch!!" I gasped as the guy lifted his foot to match racheal down but to my surprise, Racheal held his foot and swerved.

The guy fell down but manage to stand up immediately, I was already panicking and the guy attacked racheal in a new vigor.

I was flabbergasted as Racheal broke all odds when she attacked the guy back in equal energy. An epic fight ensued between them, all I could do was watch like panicking for Rachel's sake that the boy will harm her. But Racheal kept betraying my hutch as she kept catching the guy's blows and skillfully punching the guy everywhere.

The guy manages to leave few cuts on Racheal's face but he was bleeding from his nose and mouth cause of the way racheal had dealt with him like a professional fighter. What shocked me most was when the boy brought out a small knife, I screamed when he threatened the knife to racheal's face but she blew the knife off. Kicked the boy down at his testicles. As the knife was now in her hands, the guy immediately sprung up from the ground and scurried away.

"Wow that was..." I muttered to myself, Madly impressed with my sister's fighting skill and boldness.

"Now what the hell was the meaning of what you did?" Racheal turned to me yelling angrily. I stayed quiet for a while, processing what she mean and i realized she was talking about me running away earlier.

"Shouldn't I be asking you that?" I croaked and her face turned into a deep scowl. "I've been suspected you ever since your sudden sweetness towards me but you just finally proved. Really did you have to go that far just because you hate me? I can take everything but bringing me to brothers? For what?" I cried out angrily.

Even I was surprise that I was yelling at racheal but I just couldn't hold in my anguish. My ex-brothers are the most sensitive thing for me and I'll do all it take to rid off my life forever.

"What the actual fuck? Brothers?" Racheal asked feigning ignorance. "What brothers? Do you have brothers before?"

"Like you don't know?" I spat sarcastically.

"My Goodness how will I know? What have come over you clarrisa? Do you have brothers before? Did you see them? Was that why you ran away?" She kept rambling on but I wasn't buying that.

"Don't expect me to believe that you don't know I had brothers. Maybe you didn't know before but for the few times I've known you, you are smart. You can easily do whatever you want." I said and Racheal stared at me for a very long time without saying a word. Her eyes were becoming gloomy and I suddenly began to regret my actions.

But before I could open my mouth to apologize, she spoke "really? Is that what you think about me? Fine!" She spat angrily and turned back to leave.

"No... I am sorry racheal. I didn't mean to spite you up."

I pleaded softly but she started walking away angrily. She ignored my begging for her to come back and was storming off in a fast pace making it difficult for me to meet up with her. I hadn't walk for long before some muscular tall guys with so many tattoos came to obstruct my way. They were about five.

"Who are you people" I asked fearfully backing away from them.

"Calm down dear. I'm jace. And we all work for the De' Costas. I'm here to take you home." One of them said with very sweet voice but not believing him one bit, I kept stepping back. Asking them to stay away from me. I was scared, so scared beyond words.

Jace POV

Me and the rest of the boys had been diligently trailing our bosses' sisters as ordered by Sir Antonio.

While Jericho did the driving, I kept sending sir Antonio updates about his sisters. Right from how she'd drove recklessly on the road. I couldn't stop her cause boss didn't want them to know he sent some people to stalk them.

They went to some mall and we followed them when they went to some play station.

I saw everything that happened. How one of the twins as ran off to some play ground. Her encounter with some guy which I thought they were talking fine until he starts tugging the little girl's arm. After telling Antonio about it, I and the boys wanted to go give the fucker the beating of his life but to my surprise the other twin came.

We all stayed back to watch as she bashed the boy like she was a man. I was impressed. Really impressed. She must be a trained fighter.

However we had to go meet the other twin when the female tigress start leaving her behind.

"Okay let me put sir  Antonio on the line. Talk to him and confirm for yourself." I told the girl who was so scared of us. I put a call to Antonio and placed it on loud speaker.

"Capo your sister is refusing to come with us." I told him.

"What? Give the phone to her" I extended the phone towards her.

"Tesoro ? Please come home with the boys. They work for me okay? Don't be scared" thankfully she recognizes Antonio's voice.

"Okay." She muffled.

She was about going off with us when her twin sister suddenly stormed into view.

She instantly lashed at us as she did the other fucker before but I calmed her down saying we are Antonio's men and we are here to take her twin back home since she left her behind.

A glitch of anger crossed her face as she seethed, "well I'm back now and I can drive my sister home." She glared at us and taking her sister's wrist, she Bounced off.

I grunted. Funny girl.

Clarrisa's P.O.V,

"Racheal I'm really really sorry. I didn't mean everything I said to you." I apologized to racheal, bitting my lower lips and picking on my nails while we're both in the car.

Racheal puffed out air of exasperation and turned to face me.

"It's okay." Her voice was pacific but her fave was stone code.

I just thanked her with a smile anyways.

"Now let's about what happened?" She began after a brief moment of silence while focusing on the road. "Now that I know you had brothers. What happened between you and them? Why did you seem like you were so... so scared of them? What did they do to you?"

I swallowed a lump at that question. I stayed quiet for a long while because I didn't know whether to tell her the truth or not. I mean she've already seen it all... keeping things away from her will make me feel so bad but at same time, I don't want to talk about it.

"Or wait... Could your brothers have mhurt you before? Are they the reason you are being the way you are now? You know it's okay if you don't want to..."

"Yes..." I whispered out. "I had And they hurt me. They did so many bad things to me. Th...Things that I really don't want to talk about. At not now..." My voice sounded so husky like I was going to cry.

But I forced myself to hold it and to my surprise, Racheal squeezed my hands softly. Telling me it's okay. She didn't push further with more questions.

After about an hour drive, we were home. We walked into Mattoe and liam who were arguing about something but our presence interrupted them.

They were so belated to have us back. They filled our ears with how our day had went and they helped us parked our stuffs to our room. Liam didn't relent to point out the gloomy look on my face of which I had to fake on a blissful face as I don't want to talk about ex brothers.

Mattoe pointed out the small cuts on racheal's face which she told them she got from a small fight and I backed it up. Our brothers weren't entirely please with her engaging in a fight but was relieved that didn't get deeper cuts.

Liam helped clean the cuts with first aid kit against racheal's will.

Liam told us he prepared pancake for us which we all ate together in our room. It was really yummy.

Matoe and Liam later left giving us space to arrange our outfits and taste them on.

We were now parking up when Antonio walked into the room.

"Hi Antonio..." racheal bubbled lively but I was shocked when Antonio lashed out instead.

"Why do you have to part ways with your sister Racheal?" Antonio growled wearing on that stern look of his.

Racheal frowned at him for a while before speaking.

"Wow you sent some fuckers to spy on us. Like seriously!"

"Stop trying to avoid the question. Besides if I didn't send my men to keep an eye on you, I wouldn't have known you'll leave your sister only for some fucker to come try to hurt her." Antonio said angrily.

"Umm...it's not racheal's fault. I...I was the one who left and beside my sister saved me from that guy." I said quietly avoiding Antonio's gaze.

"I know but what if it was something beyond Rechel. Do you know panicked I was when I heard the information?" Antonio seethes exchanging looks between me and Racheal.

"Well I can always protect myself and..."

"You are not going out alone ever again. If ever you going out you must go with one of your brothers and that's finale." Antonio declared cutting Racheal off.

"Whatever" Racheal rolled her eyes.

"now aside from that tell me how did your day went. And did that bastard hurt any of you?" He started checking me out and sighed when he saw no cuts. He as well did same with Racheal but found out Liam had taken care of her.

He was amazed when he saw all the stuffs we bought. He didn't complain when he found out we spent all the cash. He just took back hi ATM and asked us if we got all the things we wanted.

He stayed with us and helped us arranged our stuffs into the wardrobe.

Him and Racheal bickered over random topics of which o wasn't really listening to cause my mind was so occupied with the thought of seeing my brothers again.

I don't know, I just have this bad feeling that they'll cole for me now that they've seen me.

Lord please I don't want to go back to them.

"What's it racheal?" A voice startled me as we were all having a family dinner. I almost fell down my plate of food. "You've been picking on your food. Why aren't you eating?" Jayden asked after giving me a long stare and now everyone was staring at me.

"I..."

"And done think I haven't noticed your gloomy disposal clarrisa. Rechel did something happen to her during your outting?" Jayden asked Racheal and my heart skipped three beats.

"Don't be hilarious jayden  hasn't she been always looking dull." Racheal in her usual saucy manner.

"But..."

"nothing happened." Racheal cut Liam up. "Infact we both had fun. Right Clarrissa?" Racheal gave me a smile and I  nodded a smile. Faking on a smile as much as I can.

Racheal doesn't know this but I'm really grateful for the way she'd covered up for me.

After dinner was over without my brothers taking constant glances at me but never bothering to speak to me, everyone went to their respective rooms.

I made sure to thank Racheal for covering me up back there at the dining.

"Well you said you didn't want to talk about it and I'm not a gossip" was what she said as she was primping up in a night garment.

"thank you so much." I thanked her again quietly.

***

"No...No please don't give me away to them."I cried as I was tugging Antonio's Arms.

Jake, Dennis and Samson were walking slowly towards me, they had this creepy anf evil smiles on their faces.

The more they came closer, the more I gripped tightly to Antonio's arms but Antonio wasn't saying anything, neither do the rest of my brothers who were standing beside Antonio.

Finally my heart leapt when Dennis dugged his fingers around my arm and pulled me away from Antonio.

I gasped and begged Antonio not to let them take me.

"I'm sorry sweetheart but you'll have to go with them. They are your brothers." Antonio said in his usual stern tone of voice. His face so cold and blank.

"Do you hear that? Now come with us." Jake yelled while Dennis was pulling me to himself.

I looked at Liam  with a tearing eyes, silently begging him not to let my ex-brothers take me but he just gave me cold stare. Same stare I got from mattoe.

"Fucking go with them Clarrisa and stop this dramas!!" Jayden yelled but I didn't flinch. The pain, hurt panic and sadness I was feeling was already enough.

I kept crying,   Screaming and begging as Dennis was dragging me along with them. 

"Please do something. Stop them don't let them take me away. They are bad. They are bad poeple. They'll hurt me." I was rambling in tears but my all four brothers didn't do a thing. They were all staring at me.

Suddenly, my eyes flickered open, I instantly sprang to seat up and I didn't only realize that I was in bed, I realized I just had a dreame. A bad dream, the most terrible dream I've ever had. I was panting, more like gasping for air. Sweat was all over my body. Trepidation was ripping me apart. I was trembling, terribly trembling. 

The door burst open and my all four  burst including Racheal.

"Thank Goddness. She finally woke up." Racheal said immediately she got in.

My heart leapt and started beating as something dawned on me... are they here to come take me to my brothers?

Was my dream about to manifest so soon?

God! Please No.

"Clarrisa are you alright?"

"please don't give me away" I whispered still panting heavily.

They were saying something but I didn't bother to hear it, I kept  begging them not to give me away, increasing my voice the more they gets closer and shifting on my butts. Jayden was yelling something but I don't care.

The only thing I know right now is that I don't want to go back to my ex-brothers. My worst nightmares.

Everything suddenly went rigid when I felt someone's Hand on my shoulders, it was Antonio. I couldn't shift back anymore because he was pinning me with his strong hands. I look through Antonio's shoulder In curiousity and thankfully I was only met with the sad and worried faces of Mattoe, and Liam. Jayden and Racheal had mixtures of rage on their faces.

"Clarrisa Please calm down and talk to me... talk us. Why would you think we'll give you away? Give you away for what? To whom?" Antonio asked with a very mild voice.

"M...My...brothers are here to get me. I saw them in house I saw them..." I stuttered out, hyperventilating. Still very much panting.

"Which brothers?" They all chorused and I was brought back to my senses as the expressions on their faces turns into that of shock.

Oh no...no... why did I let my fear get the best of me?

"Huh..." I tried to act ignorance battling with my lashes.

"Who are your brothers clarrisa and what the fuck did they do to you?" Jayden yelled.

"Clarrisa," I gulped turning to Racheal who'd called my name. "you can't keep this anyone just spill the beans already"

"Clarriss what did your brothers do to you?" Antonio asked with a sweet tone but his face was cold.

I swallowed multiple lumps. I don't  want to do this. I don't want to remember my past with those monsters. I don't anymore trouble but there's this gut feeling insist that's time. Time to let the cat out.

Besides my mother   once said sometimes events that'll happen in real life, are revealed through dreams hence my  brothers indeed needs to know what they did. maybe they'll consider that and  not give me away to them when the time comes. Which ever one, I'd  made up my  mind.

"Thanks" I  to Liam as he gave me a glass of water. Right now we are all settled on my bed. Yeah my whole family was sitting on same bed with me and somehow I was so grateful. I was so scared and them being close by really helps a lot.

After gulping down the water I gave it back to Liam.

"Are you good now?" Matoe who was cuddling my left side asked and I nodded.

Everyone was now settled giving me their full Attention.

I'm about to tell my brothers the story of my life.
