Questions...

January 15th

Oh Diary, I'm so tired...i'm exhausted...i'm beat...

After we entered the house, Lissa slumped on a couch, tired as Tony looked outside the windows, trying to make sure that we weren't being chased after.

"I'm so tired guys..." Lissa slurred after Tony had tried to wake her up. Good thing I had a good nap before the stake out began.

"Tony, I guess you should just let her be....we can continue later on." I said as he muttered a reply and sat beside his sister on the couch.

"Uhm, did you see Dany there? Or was I just hallucinating? " I asked. He looked blank for a while.

"I did, Sandy. You weren't hallucinating. But.." he said as his voice trailed off.

"I have a lot of questions! Why was Dany there? Why were those men standing at the different doors upstairs? Who's 'the master'?" I asked, making an air-quote as I mentioned 'the master'.

"We've got a lot to do, Sandy. I have questions too." He replied.

"Did you hear anything when you stayed near the door?" I asked. He rested both elbows on his knees and placed his head in between his hands.

"T'was a lot, Sandy. A lot." He said and rested his head. Few minutes later, the living room was filled with the sounds of soft snores from Lissa and Tony.

I stayed up for a while and i prayed a little before falling asleep.

"Kids? What's going on here?" Mum asked, chuckling as she entered the living room. I stirred up from sleep and checked my wrist watch.

2:50pm!

I stood up from where I had been sleeping, stretched my arms and looked around the living room.

They didn't even used the sleeping bags they'd brought over. I stifled a laugh when I saw Lissa's leg dangling from the couch, drool across her cheek and her once beautiful straight hair, disheveled. Tony slept in the same position since we last talked.

"Shh" I told my Mum told be quiet as we sneaked into the room.

"Sandy, what are you planning?" She asked, looking at me with an amused expression.

"Just watch." I said, giggling as Mum nodded.

"Don't cause any trouble, Sandy." She warned as I took a bowl of water and tip-toe to the living room where they slept.

Water dripped from my fingers onto Lissa's face and some even entered her mouth. Her eyelashes flickered a little and she cleaned her face, muttering some inaudible words as I struggled to suppress the laughter that was building in me. I then moved over to Tony's side. But before I could drop some water on this face, his eyes flew opened and he stared at me with a smirk on his face as I jumped back a little and some water splashed on his face.

"Hey! What gives? How are you awake now?" I asked as he got up to squeeze his soaked shirt.

"I thought you knew that I am a light sleeper. I was awake for a while but I was just meditating and then I peeked a little when I heard you giggle and I saw what you did to Lissa." He said, looking at me with an amused expression, standing akimbo as I looked away, a little embarrassed that my plan didn't work.

"What do you think you're doing, playing mischief early in the morning?" He asked.

"I don't know, just felt like it." I said, shrugging. He moved closer to me, picked up the bowl behind me as I looked at his greyish-blue eyes. I thought my heart stopped for a minute. Gosh! His eyes are so beautiful upclose.

Then before anything else could happen, I felt water splash on my face.

"What the?!" I screamed as he stuck out a tongue at me. Lissa woke up, rubbing her eyes.

"What's with the noise?" She asked, yawning. But then I wanted to splash water on Tony but he dodged it and it landed on Lissa's face. Some even entered her mouth as she was yawning.

Tony and I burst into laughter Lissa coughed. Mum ran into the living room and when she saw the wet furniture, she screamed.

I didn't wait to hear her angry shouts as Tony and I ran outside, still laughing.

Oh! What a joke!
