3 Family

A white car arrives in front of a house in Manhattan. A beautiful girl got out of the car and ran towards the garden area of the house with a big smile on her face.

A large table with lots of mouth-watering food was set up in the garden. A beautiful lady in her late 40s was serving tea to her husband.

The girl greeted them happily "Good morning Mom and Dad. What's there for breakfast? I am really hungry."

The lady smiled and replied "How did your gym class go? Atleast wash your hands silly girl and where's your brother?"

"Oh he is just parking the car."

"Here I am Mom." A handsome boy wearing gym clothes came in the garden smiling. He kissed his mom on the cheeks and sat beside her.

"What are you guys doing today?" asked the lady.

"We're going out with big sisi" replied the guy.

The lady frowned. This expression didn't go unnoticed by her husband. He became upset.

Suddenly a cheerful voice came from outside "Chloe, Joey ; where are you my minions?"

"We are here in the garden big sisi" replied Chloe.

Bella came holding a box of sweets. The twins ran towards her and hugged her tight. Their father smiled seeing them like this. But mother was in a bad mood. She gave the box of sweets to the twins and walked towards her father. He hugged her and made her sit beside him. She greeted their mother but she sneered and walked away.

Bella became upset. Her father comforted her.

Bella was the only child of Mr. James Smith. Her mother Mrs. Olivia Smith died when she was just 8. She cut off everyone from her life. She started to skip schools. She became very weak. Her father loved her a lot and it pained him to see her in such a state. He had a hard time bringing his daughter back to a normal lifestyle again. During this time, both of them grew more closer. Bella considered her father as her best friend. Time passed and it was Bella's 10th birthday. His father told her that he is in love with someone and wants to start a new life with her. She was very upset but eventually understood. She was very excited for her father's wedding. She personally selected a wedding dress for her future mom. The lady now Mrs. Vanessa Smith too acted very affectionately towards little Bella in the first year of the marriage. After a year of their marriage, she gave birth to twins Chloe and Joey. Bella was overjoyed at this news. Soon after, her new mother started ignoring her. She showered the twins with lots of love but avoided Bella. She started hating her when she saw how her father adored her and was overprotective of her.

On the other hand, Chloe and Joey love their big sister dearly. They call her 'big sisi' and Bella calls them her minions. The trio share a great bond of love, respect and affection.

His father was earlier stressed for Bella when he noticed his wife's hatred towards her but when he saw the trio's bond he became relieved. Chloe and Joey treated Bella as their second mother. They are now 17y/o but still rely on their big sisi for most of the things.

They were the ones who cried the most on Bella's wedding. They even asked their brother-in-law to take them with their sister.

Their mother was the happiest on her wedding because finally, her wish had come true and Bella was going away from their life.

Suddenly, a phone rang and she was bought out of her thoughts. It was a business call for her father so he excused himself.

She sighed "17 years have passed but her hatred has only grown with time."
