Chapter 2 His Adopted Sister

"What?" Leela exclaimed shocked. "He is coming back that soon?"

She wondered what he will think of her when she saw her, what will be his impression?

"Don't you know? I guess you and Mrs Richmond aren't really close" Stella mocked.

"That is ok, Miss Stella. You should continue your work" Mrs Sonia ordered.

Stella bowed and left them.

"Mrs Sonia, what should I do? Do you think he will like me? Shouldn't I get him a present?" Leela asked in fear.

"Calm down, Miss Leela. I'm sure he will like you, you are his sister after all" Mrs Sonia replied

"Adopted sister." Leela corrected her nervously.

"Just calm down, be yourself. You can buy him anything, am sure he will love it" Mrs Sonia assured with a smile.

"Are you sure?" Leela asked and she nod.

"Ok, a book with do it then" She smiled, settled down for breakfast.

Mrs Sonia twitched her lips, she was glad she is able to calm Leela down.

She actually pity her, because she knows a war is about to start.

The moment, Master Bruce comes. She pity the poor innocent girl, will she be able to stay or will she leave? She could feel the storm.

•AT THE AIRPORT•

Bruce smirked relief, happy that he has finally landed. His heart pumping in excitement, and anxiety.

It been many years since he has been here, that he stopped keeping count. What enlightened him more is that he get to see her.

The mother who abandon him, but not once has he abandon her. He loves her more or less.

He looked around, eyeing for anyone with his name in his/her hand but he found none. He chuckled "She is probably not expecting him to come back right?"

"He is so handsome" He could hear some girls saying. Is he a celebrity?" Another asked making him smile.

"Master Bruce" he heard behind him and he turned back.

"Who are you?" Bruce asked irritatedly.

"Your mother sent me to pick you up" The Man said and bowed.

He felt bad of thinking she send someone to pick him up instead of her, but he shoved the thought away.

"Where is the car?" He asked.

"Come with me" The Man collected his luggage from him, and lead him to the car.

He put his luggage in the boot, while Bruce entered the passenger seat.

The man also entered, and he start the car to the Richmond's house.

~LEELA~

Everyone has been on their toes, since they heard of the arrival of Bruce Richmond. Including Mrs Richmond, it was like they literally abandoned Leela since they heard of his arrival.

That makes Leela a bit sad, but she couldn't blame them. She was adopted after all, while he is the real thing.

She knows the feeling she is having right now, its called jealousy and it is a sin but she can't help it.

She just came back from school, and that is all she could think of.

"Dear lord, forgive me for I have sinned" She said with her hand intertwined together.

A knock came on her door, disrupting her moment with the lord.

The maid Stella entered without her permission.

"He is here, he is finally here" She announced while the nervousness in Leela increased.

He is here, her so called brother is here. She wondered if he will really accept her as his sister.

"What are you waiting for?" Stella asked when she saw no reaction from Leela.

Leela stood up, picked the present she got for him and went downstairs with Stella.

They got outside and saw all the workers with Mrs Richmond waiting for him, it was like a entrance for the president or so.

"Leela" Mrs Richmond called, Leela went to her and her adopted mom held her hand. Leela could tell she was scared, but she wondered why? Is she not happy to see her son? Just as the thought fade away, a car drove in.

The car parked in front of them, the driver came out and went to opened the car door for him. As soon as he step down of the car, Leela could sense the aura coming from him.

It was strong, void and ungodly, he was in a black jacket with a black tan top, and a leather pant. There were both chains and rings on both his neck and hand, and a ear ring in his ear.

The total act of ungodly, according to Leela. But she has learn from the orphanage house not to judge people based on their appearance, she just couldn't help it.

She couldn't blame him, if he isn't a believer. Mrs Richmond also isn't the believer type, she is kind but doesn't believe in God or religion.

Bruce felt his heart racing, seeing his mother. How bad he has missed her? He want to run into her arm but he is aware they aren't close enough to do that. His eyes widened seeing the girl with his mom, what really caught his attention was that they were both holding hands.

That angers him, he is the jealous type. Whatever he believes it is his, he doesn't like sharing it.

His eyes fell on the girl, she looks beautiful even in her baggy long gown.

He walked up to the them.

"Welcome back bruc...."

"Who is she?" Bruce cut his mom shut before she could finish her statement.

"Who is she?" He asked again, his eyes not leaving Leela's.

"Oh, meet Leela. Your sister" His mom answered, even she was scared as she said these words.

"My sister?" Bruce asked, this time he faced his mom.

"I don't remember you being pregnant before dad died, don't tell me you remarried? Even if you remarried, there is no way you'll give birth to someone this old. She seems like she is my age-mate" Bruce bombard his mother with questions.

"No, Bruce. She is your adopted sister" Mrs Richmond answered.

"Adopted?" Bruce chuckled, turn around then looked at Leela with a angry deadly look. Leela could feel her legs shaking, she has never seen anyone this angry.

"Adopted sister? You adopted a child when you couldn't take care of yours?" Bruce yelled.

His face looking scary.

"Bruce, try to listen to me. A situation....." Mrs Richmond tried saying but he cut her short again.

"A situation, don't give me that shit. You never called me for the past ten years I have been there, but here you are catering for another person's child." Bruce uttered and his mom couldn't say anything.

She knew she's done him wrong, but she has her reason.

"Look here, dirt" Bruce said to Leela who gulped down.

"I will give you a choice, leave now while am being nice or you stay and regret staying" He move closer to her and whispered into her ears.

"I will make life hell for you, you will regret ever meeting my mom. You can mark on my words" Bruce said and pushed her away then walked pass her.

"Leela, are you ok?"Mrs Richmond said worried.

Seeing this makes Bruce more angry.

But his anger subside, seeing how the poor girl was shaking in fears.

"Bitch, this is just the beginning" Bruce smirked.
