Jeremy was found going out of the garage with two bottles of liquor. He kept clinging it together and then pouring away the content.
"Who is that cute guy?" Evie asked referring to Jeremy.
"Who? Jeremy?" Lisa asked.
"Is that his name?"
"Oh, yeah...yeah... that's his name"
"Wow, he is so cute." Evie praised and Lisa scoffed.
"Jeremy is cute and also dangerous."
"Dangerous?"
"Yeah. He has been ranked second most dangerous guy in this community"
"Girl, stop lying to me. He can't be dangerous. He doesn't even look like a dangerous guy. He looks like a gentleman"
" Try him then you will know two heads don't stay in one neck"
"But he is so handsome" Evie shouted and the rests of the girls laughed.
"He is handsome and dangerous"
"So dangerous"
"He also have a sister" the other girl said.
"Gosh, I am not sure they are siblings" Lisa said.
"They should be siblings. They eat together, bath together, and do other kinds of stuffs together."
"And Jeremy is more older than the lacdilack sister"
"Meaning?" Evie asked
"His sister is crazy"
"So crazy. The family are typically tomboys."
"Gosh" Evie mouthed.
Jeremy POV
I went back to the garage and helped papi up. He was drunk and still staggering.
He fell down again and I picked up the empty bottles of liquor and threw them away.
"Hey jemy, stop emptying my bottles"
"Papi, please stop talking" I snapped at him
"Let me drinkkyyybb" he blabbed and I made an heavy sigh.
"Common papi"
I lifted him up and he kept feigning powers and stubbornness
"Papi, you know Ma isn't gonna forgive you"
"Let her go to hell" he cussed and I chuckled softly.
"Bad kid"
"Common papi" I said and dragged him home.
He threw him to the couch and he fell down. Gosh, he loves frustrating people.
Keira came out of the other room and gasped
"What did you do to papi?"
"Nothing. He just got drunk and I dragged him back home"
"Dragged?" She asked and hit my arm
"This is our papi, not a goat" she said and I chuckled.
"Where are you going to, cat eyes"
"To the garage,"
"To do what?"
"I have an unfinished business to handle"
"Business?'
"Yeah."
"Trouble uh?"
"Yeah"
"Ma's gonna kill you. She will grab those eyes of yours"
"That's why you are coming with me"
"Not in the mood" I snapped and she held my hand.
"You are coming with me and that's it and you are putting on the bandana"
"No I won't"
She went into the other room and came out with a red bandana. He tied it around my forehead head and I looked at her unbelievably.
"Common"
She dragged my hands out. I am so not into all this
.
.
"Oh, so you came with your little brother" one of the hoodlums mocked and I just chuckled.
"Big brother, idiot!" Keira said and I just folded my arms and enjoy the show.
"Oh Gosh, I love your tongue, one in a million" he mocked and I clenched my fist.
"What in the world were you looking for in this neighborhood?" I whispered into her ear and she gave me the *I will kill you if you don't do something* look.
I just made an heavy sigh and went forward.
"Oh, big brother weakling is coming out" they teased and i smirked.
"You know, you will wish you never said that" I said and smirked again.
"You over there"I called.
"What?"
"Yes you, come here" I called him again and he scoffed.
He came forward and I went to meet him with my hands in my pockets.
"Lick my sandals" I said silently and they all laughed.
I smacked him down the floor and make him face my sandals horizontally.
"Wow, you are as well as a baby lizard. Guess the name?" I asked and he just slept there with his face looking at my foot
"Lizzy baby. That's what you are supposed to be called"
One of them came out ready to fight and I just smiled.
I stepped on the idiot's head. He shouted and I grabbed his collar from below
"I can see non of your community members have ever heard of the name Jeremy from the other neighborhood"
I said and looked at them. They all moved to aback including the fool that came out to fight me.
I let go of the annoying idiot and came forward, while they kept going backwards.
" Come here" I said silently and they kept going backwards.
"Come forward" I said again with patience and they kept going backwards.
"Guys, come here!!" I roared at them and they quickly came to me out of shock.
I smiled and kissed one of their cheek.
"I know you know what that mean"
Run!!!
They ran away like some animal were chasing them and Keira laughed.
"Geez, that's so funny" she laughed and I frowned at her.
"It isn't funny Keira, you know what Mami will do if she finds out"
"What will she do Hun?"
***********************************
"Keira!!!!" Ma shouted and I chuckled.
"This is what she will do. Shout at us" I said with a smirk and Keira hid behind me.
"Keira, come here!!" She shouted.
"Honey, stop shouting. I am trying to take a nap here" papi said and Ma hit him angrily.
"You are all useless. You are a drunkard and your daughter is a bully to the society"
She hit papi twice.
"I wasn't the bully Ma. Those men stole from me."
"What did they steal from you Hun?"
"20 Dollars" she said and Ma sprang up.
"20 Dollars?!!!! Jeremy, you should have beaten them up Black and blue. Where does those bastards stay!!" Ma shouted and Keira pointed out the window
"They are the Saor grandchildren. The older ones" she said and Ma walked out like she was going to a battle field.
"Ma. It's late already." I shouted at the top of my voice and she ignored me completely.
"Geez, that was close" Keira cooed and I chuckled.
"I am going to sleep. It late already"
"Wait up, I am coming with you" she said holding my hand. Papi fell off the couch and Keira laughed.
**********************************
Keira's POV:
"So.... Jeremy who is the girl?" I asked him while washing my body with the bar of bathing soap.
"No girl yet" he said and I frowned.
"Your lies are horrible. What about Mia"
"I hardly lie, you know and Mia isn't my girlfriend, nor my friend. I don't like her at all"
He said and I scoffed.
"Lies" I muttered under my breath
I sprinkled the water at his face and he sighed.
"You are really annoying"
"Yes I am"I mumbled and he sighed softly.
"I am getting outta here"
"Yeah get out go meet Mia at her father's house" I mocked and he looked at me angrily.
"Mia isn't my girlfriend and I don't like her. Do I need to repeat it?'
"Your lies are horrible jemy. She is a new pretty chick in this village and I am sure you have feelings for her"
He stood up angrily with his naked body dropping wet. He went out of the tub and threw the bar of soap at me.
"Nerd!" I exclaimed and he picked up the towel wrapped it around his waist and went out of the bathroom
"Nerd" i said with an eye roll.
I also picked up the towel and wrapped it around my chest, then out of the bathroom. I saw him wearing his pyjamas.
"Hey nerd"
"Stop calling me that"
I unwrapped the towel off my body and threw it to his face.
"Hey!!" He threw it back at me and I laughed. He is cute when he gets angry
I cleaned my wet body and I signaled him to get me my pyjamas which was on the other side of the bed.
"Go get it yourself"
"What?!! What kind of brother are you? You know I am a good girl and good girls don't get themselves stressed"
He threw the pyjamas and my underwear to me and I was quick to catch it.
..................................................................................
#the_next_day
I yawned out my sleepy self and I felt someone's kick. I then saw myself rolling off the bed.
"Jeremy!!" I called and saw him sleeping like a dog
His legs apart, his arms apart and he was snoring.
I picked up the pillow and hit his stupid face. He sprang up and blinked his eyes twice.
"What's the time now?" He asked and I groaned..
"The time is, I will kill you if you don't get out of bed"
He scoffed and spread his legs apart more than before.
"Jeremy!!!!!"
I hit his d*ck with my right leg and he groaned out of the bed with his hands placed in there. Gosh, I should have break his balls.
Geez, that hurts so badly, she has one type of Kung Fu leg or something.
I went to the living room. It looks like I have a fracture in between my balls. It hurts badly.
I met Ma on the way and she looked at me.
"Jeremy, what's the problem? Why are you walking like that"
"She kicked me right here" I said pointing to it.
"Really? She actually took over your papi. Violence is in both of their bloods"
The pain is excruciating
I heard a silent thud from the sofa and saw papi groaning on the floor.
"Seriously Ma, he slept on the couch all night?"
"Yeah, he snores a lot, you know?"
"What happened?" He asked with his hand on his forehead.
"You fell off the sofa papi"
"But why didn't I sleep in the room,?' he asked standing up slowly.
"Papinaaa, you were drunk" I heard Keira's voice.
"Drunk? Junno, why didn't you take me to the room?"
"You love snoring and your snores sounds like a lion and I need to have peace of mind In this house"
He scratched his head in confusion. I went to him and stood him up completely. Geez. It still hurts in there.
"Hey jemy. Why are you walking like that?" He asked and I looked at Keira. She giggled and I frowned.
"Nothing."
"Lier" he mouthed and I succeeded in taking him to his room.
"Hey, hey, come here. Get me that?" He said pointing to the table.
"Alcohol again?"
"Shut up jemy, just don't tell your mom," he said and I chuckled.
"No I am not bringing it to you. Take it yourself." I said and stormed out of the room.
"Jemy!! Jeremy!!!" He called my name twice and I ignored him. He is so annoying.
*********************************************
I went outside the compound wall with my bag with me. I walked away from the smoking smugglers in a shop beside the compound
There were actually betting on something.
"I need some cash." I mumured and I went to them.
"Sam, your opponent!" I said loudly and Sam threw the dice on the floor. Was he scared or something??
I scoffed and sat down. Everybody cheered and he also scoffed.
"Jeremy, you up against me?" He asked and I smirked.
"Umm...what do you think I am doing here?" I asked and he chuckled.
"What do you want to bet on?"
"That!!" I pointed to the money he was holding.
"Okay, yours?" He said and I dropped the whole money in my bag.
"Let's be fare, friend" I said and he smirked.
He rolled the dice twice and slammed it on the table.
"Yeah, let's be fare." He said and they all cheered.
"We ain't doing the dice, that is the game."
He pointed to the wheel.
The neighborhood calls it the circus wheel.
The game goes like this, there must be someone tied around the wheel. The gamer must pick up a knife and aim it on the wheel. It must'nt touch the person tied on it and the opposer must do the same.
If it is a tie, the dice must be tossed and who ever gets the six, owns the money. And if any opposer hits hits the person tied around the wheel, the other will be owner of the money.
It maybe hard but...
Good news,.I love this game so much.
"So, who do you want?"
"Your sister!!" He said and I looked at him.
Everyone laughed and I clenched my fist.
Wondering why? I don't play games with my sister. I hate it when people also does.
"Give up? I am taking the whole money...."
"Okay!" I heard Keira's voice and saw her coming forward and she fold her arms giving a straight scoff.
"Soo...the bet is on" she said and I widened my eyes.
Is she crazy or something?
"Are you mad?" I whispered to her ear and she smiled.
"I am always mad." She replied and went to Sam
"Let's get the game started."
She went to the wheel and they tied her there. But I can't aim it to my sister. I sighed and Sam looked at me with a smirk.
I also smirked at him and grabbed the pen knife. I can't believe this is happening.
He also picked the pen knife and he was the first to aim
He threw it and it almost hit Keira. I tightened my fist ready to punch him hardly on the face.
He threw another, and it did the same thing.
"Your turn handsome" he said with a chuckle and I picked up the pen knife.
I took the right shoot three times.
"Impressive," he said taking the third...
He threw it and it almost hit her forehead. I wanted to move but she smiled. I stand back and he picked up the dice.
"Let's furrow the sixth, shall we?" He said and I smirked widely.
He tossed the dice and I saw his hands slipping around it. He is cheating.
I snapped his hand and the dice fell on the floor reveling a four.
"Top notch, you are aggressive"
"So are you."
One of the men freed Keira and she came running to us.
"Hey cat eyes" Sam teased and she scoffed.
"Dare to cheat? I am watching"
He tossed it and unfortunately for him, it was four.
"Good" I muttered and he looked at me.
"It's a good thing you loosed. I need that money you know?" I said and he looked at me with sweats on his forehead.
I wiped it off with a rag and then wanted to touch his cheek, that would be for another day.
I rolled the dice on my bare hand an then tossed it and SWIP!!! Six!!
"Thanks a lot Sam." I said and took both mine and his money.
"Bye bye."
I left the shop with Keira.
"That was so good of you Jeremy."
"I am Jeremy the great." I boasted and she chuckled.
"Okay. What is the usage of this much money"
"Ma foodstuffs at the market."
"Oh!"
"I want to surprise her."
"Hey, I was the one tied to the wheel, I should be the one giving it to her."
"You came yourself, I never asked you to participate."
"Buh, I did and helped."
She tried collecting the money from me and I hit the bag on her head.
"Jeremy!!"
"Stop shouting Keira."
"I ain't shouting. I just need some change." She said and I walked away.
"Jeremy?" She called and I ignored her.
.
.
.
We both arrived at Mom's shop and I placed her her hand on my head.
"You are here and why is Keira frowning?"
"Mom, I don't want to talk about it," "talk about what?" Mom asked and I laughed.
Ericka's POV:
I went to her room and saw her trying to stand up from her bed to her wheelchair.
"Whoa whoa whoa, Shirlene, what are you trying to do?"
I faked a concern.
She yanked my hand off her arm and wanted to stand up her feet.
I dragged her hair and made her stumble hard on the bed.
"Why are you so stubborn Shirlene? I told you to sit down and not bother yourself too much. Why are you just so stubborn?"
"Let go of me Ericka,"
"Well, I can't. I am afraid that's impossible to let go of a barren,"
I smiled and she looked at me with her despicable eyes.
I sat beside her and picked up her medications.
"Common, open up."
I tried to feed her the medicines and she just locked her mouth.
"I said open up!!!!"
I opened her mouth and poured the whole content. She was forced to swallow it all.
"Good. Now you can take a rest and go to hell, maybe you can leave my husband and I alone for ourselves"
I shout at her and stormed out.
Emelia POV:
"Enjoy all you want babe, the money is all yours."
The guys took the bag of cash and sprayed it out, while I just sat on the chair enjoying my alcohol.
"Emelia, can I get 18 thousand dollars?"
"Take this" I gave him my purse. "Take the money you want, they are all yours to wallow." I said and he took my purse in amazement.
"Thanks." He said and I drank from the alcohol.
I stood up and went amongst the boys and started dancing. This is life, life of the rich.
*
*
"Ma'am, it's time to leave." My driver said interrupting my fun moments.
"Wait, what do you mean by that?"
"Mr Hendrickson ordered your...."
"Why is father such a party pooper?" I groaned and pick up my purse.
"Guys, I will see you later. I need to go."
"Okay Emelia,"
"And babe.." Danny came towards me. "The same hotel, tomorrow " he asked.
"Okay." I said and he kissed me.
"Bye." I said and went away with the driver.
I hopped into the back seat and I heard the engines igniting.
Then a message popped up on my phone.
*Your credit card had been suspended....*
"Suspended?!!!!!" I shouted and checked again.
"Your credit card had been suspended, you...."
"What the fvck!!!!"
.
.
.
"Dad!!!!" I shouted at the top of my voice.
"Dad!!!"
I shouted again and heard footsteps from the stairs.
"Oh baby, you are back"
"Dad, why did you suspend my credit card?!!"
"Oh, I did it for some purpose."
"What purpose dad? You are destroying my life."
"I ain't destroying your life Emelia, I am fixing it. You have spent more than enough, do you want us to go bankrupt?". "It's high time for you to learn how to take care of your expenses yourself and plan a budget for yourself." He said and I groaned angrily.
"Dad?!!!"
"Wait, your credit card had been suspended?" I heard Mom's voice and I ran to her with tears in my eyes.
"Yes Mom, Dad suspended it."
"Honey"
"I think you are the one destroying the life of your daughter Ericka," he said and walked upstairs angrily.
"Mom?"
"I will talk to him baby, Don't worry."
She went upstairs with Daddy and I shouted angrily. This people are annoying.
......to be continued......
Jeremy's POV:
"Jeremy!!!" I heard a familiar voice. If I could hear the voice clearly..that is...
"Jeremy!!!!"
She (Mia) came to me and I looked away.
"Why are you here?"
"To see you."
"Why?"
"Where is Keira?"
"She is with ma."
"Really? That's great."
"Why?"
"You can now take me around the neighborhood. You know I am new here."
"Why can't you choose another person to take you around the neighborhood?"
"Cause I am sure you are used to this neighborhood, so...I choose you instead and as a friend." She said and I looked at her unbelievably.
"Common."
We both went around the neighborhood together. I was showing her stuffs, seas and different types of amusing places to be.
"I heard you are the most dangerous guy in this neighborhood,"
"Well, that has been the origin for a long time. A lot of people call me dangerous, but when you know me better, I am sweet."
"I can see it already." She said and we both chuckled.
"Jeremy!!!" I heard Keira's voice and turned around only to see her running to me.
"Oh, you are with Mia."
"Yeah I am. I am taking her around the neighborhood."
"Really? Taking her around the neighborhood??" She asked teasing me and I frowned.
"Yes, I am taking her around the neighborhood."
"Oh well. I have been looking for you actually. Ma asked you to deliver this to Silas."
"Are you lying, caus you are so good at that stuff (lying)"
"I am not lying, I am only starting to." She said and chuckled.
"Well, I will be in my way. Enjoy your honeymoon."
She walked away and I made an heavy sigh.
"Wow, you really have a nice sister, who probably acts like a boy " she said trying to filter her words.
"Well, she's my Keira."
"I have to take this to Silas,"
"Okay sure. I will see you later " she said and I nodded in agreement.
"Bye." She walked away and I sighed softly.
Thank goodness she is gone.
"Jeremy one and only girlfriend." I heard Keira teasing from behind.
I turned around to see her dancing. Is she okay??
"Keira, stop that."
"You were with your one and only girlfriend,"
"She isn't my girlfriend."
"yes she is, you just wanna deny it so I wouldn't tease you right??"
"No."
She laughed and I scoffed.
"What is this, I know you are lying, you don't want to give Silas his stuff yourself. And what the heck is this?'
"If you could allow me to answer those silly questions you are asking me." She said with a frown.
"We are going to a party, so dress up for tonight."
"That isn't the question I was asking you."
"We both know how Silas can be. See, I give him those drugs, he won't allow me to go home till tomorrow morning, and I need to go to that party badly,"
"Drugs, party?"
"Yeah. You are the only one that can handle Silas's problem of having people around."
"Okay?"
.
.
.
.
Keira's POV:
I took at my outfit and smirked. This outfit is prefect for tonight.
I took a look at Jeremy's and scoffed. He would suit him, but he should probably lift more heavy weights. Maybe he might grow more muscles, that would make him more cool.
I dropped the outfit and looked at mine again.
"Keira!!" I heard ma's voice and dropped the outfit.
I got out of my the room and met her sitting on the cushion, drinking a glass of water.
"Why are you early today?"
"Jeremy bought me some money, I was proud of him so I decided to quit working for today."
"Is that necessary ma?"
"Yeah, I can't kill myself over some dollars for me to buy new clothes for Christmas." She said and I replied a 'whatever'
"Why aren't you with Jeremy?"
"Jeremy is with his girlfriend." I lied with a chuckle.
"Jeremy Don't have a girlfriend girlie. Just tell me where Jeremy is and stop getting on my COOL nerves which I am trying to keep for a week."
"Okay fine, Jeremy went to deliver some drugs to Silas."
"She should be back come to give me my evening massage."
"Jeremy would be home to dress up and leave for a party."
"A party?"
"Yes ma'am. I heard it's for the whole youth of the neighborhood."
"I am also a youth."
I laugh at her and she frowned
"Ma, what are you 60, with a face of 70." I teased and she stood up to grab a mirror.
"Do I look seventy?"
"Yes ma,"
"I am still a youth."
"Youth my foot, I am going to my room to prepare for the party, I want no disturbance."
"Yeah, it's only a party, not that you are gonna bring some money back home to your mother.,"
"Jeremy can do that stuff (bringing money back he to his mother.)
"Good evening ma." I heard Jeremy's voice and chuckled..
"Speaking of the devil, look who is here. Jeremy David,"
"What?"
"Come here and stop talking."
He kissed ma's back hand and I dragged him to the room.
"Keira, don't kick his balls!!!"
"If he doesn't get into my nerves!!!"
Jeremy's POV:
"Sit here!!!" She ordered
I sat down and she placed some outfits on the table.
"Take off your shirts."
"No I don't wanna "
"I will kick your balls,"
I took of my shirts.
"Take off your pants."
I took it off and she pushed me to the bathroom.
"What are you trying to do?"
"I will be your mother for today."
"Mother?"
She forcefully took off my boxers and pushed me towards the shower.
She picked up the sponges and the bar of soap.
"Hey, hey, woman, what are you trying to do?"
"I am your mother for today."
"Hey..."
JUNNO'S POV:
I heard a sudden knuckle on the door and lift up my head only to see my darn husband coming in with a crate filled up with alcohol.
"Where are you coming from?"
"Skates."
"What's with the alcohol?"
"It's mine."
"Stop ruining my moments with your darn fortune of alcohol,"
"Where is Keira and Jeremy?"
"In their room, preparing for the silly youth party,"
"Well, isn't it high time we get their rooms separated?"
"Why do you say that?"
"Like... Jeremy isn't a kid anymore same as Keira, they are adults now. I think it's time we do separate both of their rooms before they both do something stupid "
"First time you said something reasonable. Jeremy is twenty-five, while Keira is twenty four. They are really adults already "
"Yeah, I can now drink my favourite drink (alcohol)
Jeremy's POV:
"Say ah..."
"Why should I say ah? I am not a girl "
"But your lips are dried up. You need lip gloss.
"I ain't a girl."
I said and she applied it.
"Hey!!" I exclaimed.
She stood me up and turned me around.
"Perfect!"
"This is just a normal daily outfit."
"But the difference is, it is new and more prettier than your other clothes."
"Yeah." I mouthed.
She stood up to go pick up my sandals.
"I ain't a kid. I wear them myself."
"Jeremy!!!" She shouted and I allowed her to wear my footwear for me like she was ma.
"You are now ready to leave. It's 8 pm already and we both know the show is at 7."
"But you are also going right?"
"Yeah I am but I will be a little bit late."
I pouted my lips and she laughed.
"Stop that kid's expression and stand up."
She dragged me out and I groaned.
Emelia's POV:
I shattered the whole stuff on the floor and groaned angrily.
"Emelia!!!!" I heard mom's voice and threw some stuffs at her.
"Emelia!!!" She shouted at me and I threw more stuffs to the floor.
She held my shoulders and I shouted.
"Emelia, that's enough!!"
"But dad is being cruel to me. It's unfair mom, I can't take this anymore,"
"But I am here for you Emelia, i am your mother,"
"I always feel father is always giving his attentions to the witch of a woman Shirlene,"
I said and she smirked.
"What about we teach her a lesson?"
Mom said and I smiled at her brilliant plan.
"That would be better mom, I really want to inflict my anger on that w'tch."
Mom and I walked to her room and saw her trying to take her meal on the table.
I smirked and both walked up to her.
I threw the whole meal on the floor, both the juice.
"Emelia?" She called pathetically and I scoffed.
Mom grabbed her hair and she shouts.
"How are you Shirlene?"
Mom asked holding her hair from behind.
"Ericka, please."
"Oh, does that hurt?" I asked and pushed her to the floor.
I grabbed her head from behind and slammed it to the floor twice making it bleed badly. She started crying. My mother and I laughed and did a hi five.
Mom stepped on the spilled meal and rubbed it on the floor thoroughly.
I am so enjoying this. This is better than 5 min s*x with Samson.
We both walked out leaving her all shattered and miserable as she is.
"Gosh, that felt so good." "Yeah baby." Mom said and we both laughed.
~~~~~~~
My phone rings.
I was quick to pick it up..
"Hello Danny, "
"I am sorry Emilia, I won't be able to make it tomorrow."
"It's okay danny, I also wanted to tell you the same thing, buh I was curious,"
"What about now, you can come over now,"
"Really? I will be there in the next 20 minutes,"
"Okay love,"
"Bye,"
"Bye."
He ended the call and I picked up my bag. I happily went out.
Mr Hendrickson (Kelvin) POV:
I kept the present behind me and tiptoed to Shirlene's room.
I knocked twice and no one answered, then I decided to open the door.
I saw everything spilled on the floor, food, equipments and ..."
"Shirlene!!!!" I shouted and ran to her.
"Shirlene!!!" I called her again and stood her up gently, say her Down on the bed.
She was crying.
"Shirlene?" I called and she hugged me tightly.
"Shirlene,who did this to you?"
"I don't know why they hate me?. it's so painful."
"Who? Ericka and Emelia?"
"I don't like this at all Kelvin." She said with hit tears flowing off her eyes.
I looked around her room and saw it in a mess.
I wanted to stand up and she held me back.
"Please don't go Kelvin. Please!"
"But they both hurt you."
"Kelvin Don't, please don't."
She held me tightly and I kissed her forehead.
