The picture is of Amelia! She’s a brand new character fyi, read to locate out!
Emily’s P.O.V
I looked 1 last time at my home as the vehicle drove away. I wiped the tear from my eye. I wasn’t going to cry more than Tyler or something. I was robust.
Yes, Emily you are powerful. You do not cry. You do not care about something. I believed to myself all through the journey.
“We’ll be here soon, Emily. Trust me, every little thing will probably be alright.” my mom stated, speaking for the very first time within the entire journey.
“Sure it’ll.” I stated sarcastically.
Mom looked at me.
“Emily, I know this really is difficult for you…” she began in her soft voice.
“No, mom! It is not! It is not! It couldn’t be less difficult! It is just that Tyler has been pretending all this time and that now I’m getting sent away against my will to meet some crazy abusive dad who’ll possibly kill me on initial sight!” I suddenly burst out.
My mom looked confused. Not since she did not recognize what I stated. She was confused at my behavior.
“Emily?” she stated seeking in the road.
“Yeah?” I answered not seeking at her.
“Just do not.” she stated.
I knew what she meant. She was telling me to quit fighting against what was happening. She understood what I was going by way of, but she knew I wasn’t acting like me.
“Mom, I’m going to alter and turn out to be some thing various. I’m not going to be the very same vulnerable individual anymore.” I told her fiercely.
She did not say something.
“We’re here. C’mon.” she stated and stopped the vehicle. I looked in the home.
It was huge. It was much more like a mansion.
My mom and me walked to the porch and I hesitated prior to ringing the doorbell. She gave me an encouraging nod. I rang it.
A woman opened the door. She had lengthy wavy red hair and emerald green eyes. She was actually fairly. She smiled at each of us.
“Are you Emily?” she asked me. Hey, she had a actually robust British accent. So my dad married a British woman?
“Yeah.” I stated slowly. She smiled wider. She opened her mouth to say one thing when suddenly I heard a voice.
“Move, move! I wanna see her!” somebody stated and pushed by means of Douglas’s wife.
I saw somewhat boy with lengthy red hair, and dark blue eyes examine me. He suddenly frowned.
“But mommy, she’s so massive, like Josh!” he suddenly whined.
“Of course she is, honey. She’s 15!” she told him laughing.
“But I believed she’ll be as old as me, so I will not be the youngest anymore!”
His mother and my mom laughed.
“I truly have to go now. I just wanted to drop Emily here. Bye Emily!” my mom stated cheerfully, although I knew she was feeling terrible.
“Bye mom.” I stated and gave her a fast hug, after which she left.
“Come inside, Emily!” the woman stated smiling. “My young children are going to be truly excited that you have arrived.”
“Okay..” I stated nervously. For a second, I was scared of going inside. What about Douglas… I stepped in, but I did not see anybody at very first.
“Oh my goodness! I’m so glad that you are fairly!” Somebody yelled. I turned in surprise.
A girl… about my age, looked at me grinning.
“Mom stated that I required to introduce you to my buddies, and I was scared that you will be ugly or perhaps a geek or one thing. But THANK GOODNESS! you are not!” she explained, talking genuinely rapidly.
I smiled slowly. There was some thing actually likable about her. After which I noticed that they had been other children inside the room. There was a girl plus a boy seeking curiously at me. They had been twins, and looked a minimum of 12 or 13.
“I’m Amelia. And that is Claudia and Shaun.” she stated pointing towards the twins. They smiled and also the boy grinned at me.
“Where’s Josh?” Claudia stated. She had a high pitched sweet voice.
“Gone somewhere, as usual.” Amelia stated, rolling her eyes.
“But he’s going to be shocked when he sees you.” she stated and winked.
“Why?” I asked. Why would he be shocked?
“Oh, you will uncover out soon sufficient.” she stated mysteriously.
Amelia’s mom came from somewhere and smiled at all of us.
“Getting to know one another? Wait… where’s Josh?” She asked. Amelia gave her a meaningful appear and she nodded understandingly.
“Well, do not make Emily stand there! Show her her bedroom.” she stated.
Amelia led me upstairs. I looked about. The residence was truly gorgeous.
I shared a room with Amelia. Correct subsequent to it was Josh’s room.
“Actually Josh’s room is significantly larger that mine, so we had planned which you share a room with him, but then right after he told us about his….” she began babbling but then suddenly stopped and blushed. I looked weirdly at her. She bit her lip.
“Well, do you like the room?” she asked me, altering the subject. I decided to let it go, I would locate out the secret about Josh later on.
“Yeah it is truly good.” I stated. The rooms had been painted in pink and purple with two huge closets. There was a large mirror having a counter that had at the least a hundred bottles of make-up.
Even the bed had purple and pink bedsheets. A typical room for a preppy type of girl.
“This is your closet, the bathroom is more than there. Do you would like support unpacking your stuff?” she asked me.
“Not genuinely, I feel I’m alright. But thanks.” I stated.
She smiled at me. “You’ve no concept how glad I’m to have a sister.” she stated and left.
Sister? They actually accepted me as a sister? Woah.. that was a bit an excessive amount of, do not you feel? I believe I’m a lot more comfy without having getting any siblings.
I did not take a lengthy time to unpack all my clothes into the empty closet. As I was unpacking, I noticed one thing in my bag. It was the photograph of my mom and me. I felt my eyes finding somewhat wet as I looked at it.
Wait, a minute, wasn’t I acting like a baby?
I slept off on the bed, hugging the photograph.
*****
I woke up having a commence. Amelia was shaking me gently.
“Tired, huh?” she stated smiling.
“I guess.” I murmured, rubbing my eyes.
“Dad was supposed to come tonight.” she stated. I froze and sat up.
“Douglas?” I asked in a half-scared whisper. She frowned slightly.
“Emily? I believed you’d be excited to meet your dad soon after all these years..” she exclaimed.
I grit my teeth. “I do not know how he treats you, but he was absolutely nothing like a dad to me. He did not even adore me.” I told her, acting like it did not bother me.
“Yeah, appropriate. He does not enjoy you… that is why he traced you and your mom down somehow, and took so significantly trouble to create positive he does not miss out on you growing up?” she stated sarcastically. I glared at her.
“You do not know Douglas like I do.” I murmured.
“Oh, yes, I know him genuinely properly. I’ve lived with him most of my life. But now, he’s changed, he’s not like how he was just before.” she stated.
I was about to open up, and tell her how he employed to abuse me, but I hardened up rather and stuck my lower jaw out.
“Well, I’ll see if he’s changed or not.” I declared. Amelia looked at me strangely.
“Anyways, I stated he was supposed to come, but he cannot make it for tonight.” she told me.
“Tonight?” I asked her confused.
“Yup, it is time for supper. C’mon, I came to call you.” she told me.
“Wow, i did not know i slept so lengthy.” I stated laughing.
“Yup, I guess I’ll need to get utilized to your lazy butt.” she stated smirking at me.
“HEY!” I exclaimed angrily and got up. She laughed and yelled, “Catch me should you can!”
That was it. I began chasing her out of the room and by means of the hallway. It was difficult, specifically given that i really almost dropped a couple of flower vases. She headed for the stairs and i followed in hot pursuit, until i got a brilliant thought. I climbed on the banister and slid down all of the way. I reached ahead of her, but she was coming down at such a speed, that we each collided into one another.
