Crazy Week

   Staring at Ava was what I could do right now. I meant it when I told her that I don't have strength. I owe nobody an explanation but myself. I had two options, push her out of the room or ignore her, I took the latter.

  I walked back to the bathroom nonchalantly, ignoring her totally.

  "You are weird, have you thought what the world would say if they get to know that two days your wife passed out, you brought in your mistress"

I sighed. She said this before and she is repeating herself. What is she planning to achieve with it?

 "And who cares about what the world says. Does it look like I care,Ava? Has it ever occurred to you that you are insensitive and selfish." I said coolly. I needed not to raise my voice for her to understand that she is bugging me. I don't appreciate it when you bring irrelevant things to me when I have so much going on.

   "You should care because mom and I would not stop until every living soul on earth hears what you have done"

My ears pricked at her irritating voice.

  "And what is that I have done?"

She chuckled at my question,

"Sometimes I wonder if you are smart at all. You know what you have done and you still what to know by asking foolishly"

She said rudely, glaring at me.

   "This week is kind of crazy. It has been rude people visiting me and insulting me in my own house"

I muttered, laughing at her with my eyes. I know what she was trying to do, she wants to get me annoyed which is not going to work for her today.

  "My dear cousin sister, the almighty Ava who doesn't mind that I can teach her manners for insulting me in my house,I salute you. How does it feel to be ignored? Taking your frustrations out to people is the best way for you to feel good. I don't blame you for your choice of words and manner, you are probably trying to tell yourself it's okay."

I paused to keep the pillows together and arranged myself on the bed. 

   "But I tell you what, it's not your fault mama was too busy for you and if you can get rid of this bad behavior of yours, I will be the best big brother ever. You do know I love you and that's why I am tolerating you right now so if you don't mind, leave my room. I need to be left alone" I said while putting the pillow back on the top, I heard a deep sigh and footsteps leaving the room. I didn't even bother checking if she closed the door as I knew she did. The moment I heard the steps getting further away, I put my head back on the pillow and tried to relax. But somehow something just wasn't sitting well with me.

   It had never occurred to me that one day Ava would hate me so much. I mean she always used to give me a hard time but since I have moved to the Reben Castle, she has turned into a total bitch. She hates everything related to me and I have no one to blame but her mother. Her mother is the reason she is turning out to be this bitchy. 

   I know my words were hurtful but she wasn't left out too. she was mean and I could not help but to remind her that she lacked the most important thing in life which is her mother's love. It was unfair for me to do so but anyone in my shoes would have done worse. I mean, look at it, I have Jenny's issues to sort and having her insult me in my house was way out of line.

 I sighed for the tenth time in a while and closed my eyes to rest, the alcohol was beginning to affect my system.

Writer's point of view…

     Mrs Elina Thompson stirred and opened her eyes. She got up from her couch and stared around in shock. She was back in her house, right in her living room and she is finding it hard to believe.

  "Was that a nightmare or what?"

She asked confused, then stared at herself. 

  She can't really remember much as headache begins to set in. She slowly sat back on the couch and stared at the wall clock. It was a minute before 10 in the morning and it looked strange to her. "I can't be sleeping late into the morning"

  She wondered looking around to see if there is something that could give her a clue why her morning is starting with confusion.

   "What's the essence of my kidnap?"

She voiced out loud, "and why would I be brought home?"

  A beep from her phone made her snap towards her left. The phone was lying carelessly on the center table. She gingerly picked it up and the Message was Jenny.

   "Morning to you mom, sorry I had not been able to reach out to you. My phone has been faulty. By the end of the day, I will call you. Love you"

   Mrs Elina stared at the phone for a few seconds before she decided to drop it and closed her eyes back. 

   After like five minutes, she stood up and headed inside her room murmuring coherent words.
