Chapter 12

After eating,Liam went to the bedroom but when he opened the door it didn't,it was locked. He knocked but nobody replied,he did again but still no response.

"Racheal, open the door"he said still knocking.

"Racheal"he said again. This was really getting on his nerves,she locked the door,said his cooking was bad, only God knows what she'll do next. The commotion that he was creating made the six maids he had look up to watch.

"Racheal open the door"he said said not shouting,he didn't want to get angry because of something like this. Tired of knocking he went to his study room to get a spare key. He tried unlocking the door but it didn't open,the key she used was still intact,how would he open the door.

"Racheal open the door".He decided to call a door installer to remove the door but his phone was no where to be found,that was when he remembered that his phone was inside.

"Damnit,this girl is stressing me, didn't know she was this stubborn".

"Racheal open the door "he shouted hitting the door hard,he was already angry.

"Daddy, mummy, let's play hide and seek "an eight years old girl said pestering her parents who were busy with their laptop.

She had waist length,silky and shiny dark auburn hair. She wasn't really tall but an height suitable for her age. She had big brown eyes that looked so cute and her white milky skin was so beautiful, looking at her and her mom,one would know where she got the eyes and skin from. Her white set of teeth made her cute smile looked more attractive. She was so beautiful,with those straight pointed nose and thin lips.

"Alright sweetheart"her dad said closing the laptop and her mom did too.

"So sweetheart who's hiding"her mom asked cupping her cheeks.

"Meeee"she said raising her hands happily with a big teddy in one.

"Okay,go and hide now, we'll look for you" she ran happily away to the wardrobe in her parents bedroom, closing it carefully she hid there holding her teddy.

"Where did my little princess go to now",she could hear her dad voice from a distance and it made her giggle silently.

"I don't know, let's check our bedroom"her mom said aloud making her know they knew where she was. They tiptoed into there bedroom,

"looks like something is in the wardrobe, let's check"her dad said walking towards the wardrobe with his wife behind when he heard a gunshot. He quickly turned around and saw his wife lying lifeless on the floor with her blood all around her. He was about to touch the lifeless body when he also got shot. The little girl in tears watched from the hole she left in the wardrobe how her parents were murdered in front of her.

"Racheal wake up"Liam said tapping her because she was crying and sweating while sleeping. She open her big eyes all of a sudden and it was horrifying like horror movies and it frightened him little. With common sense Liam knew she just had a nightmare so he didn't ask her why she locked the door. He just pulled her for a hug on the bed when she sat upright.

"It's okay,it was just a nightmare"he said trying to calm her.

"Then why do I have it all the time",she was already crying, wetting his shirt.

"I don't know,but everything will be fine".They hugged for hours, sorry minutes but it felt like eternity.

Racheal finally cooled down and they finally separated from the hug.Liam scent was intoxicating,and his hug was heavenly.That was when Liam looked at her seriously,he was done putting that pity face.

"What,why are you looking at me like that".

"Why did you lock the door and used headphones to sleep". Busted,Liam could kill her with that death glare.

"I didn't lock the door and the way I sleep doesn't concern you".

"It concerns me because you've made me remove the door".he said Indifferently. That was when she noticed that the door was not there again.
