101 Believe In The Impossible.

Olivia spent two hours watching and learning from Loreley. To reduce the swelling they grabbed some steaks from the freezer and placed them over her face, every 15 minutes they would switch out the meat. After 45 minutes they stopped applying the frozen steak and went to Laila's room. Loreley had her lay down on the bed then applied peeled cucumber skins to her face.

Loreley then took Olivia to the bathroom and filled up the tub with warm water. Then she added some lavender oil, coconut oil, frankincense oil and tea tree oil to the bath water. Olivia noted that the bath smelled heavenly "How did you find out this would help." she asked Loreley as she took another breathe in.

"Lots of research and trials." she answered absent mindedly as she finished stirring the oils into the bath water with her hand. She then gabbed a small bowl and scooped up some of the bath water and set it aside.

Loreley then started to leave the room and Olivia quickly followed her towards Laila. Loreley removed the peels from her face and had her sit up. She quickly brushed her hair into a ponytail and helped her undress. All three girls walked into the bathroom and Olivia watched Loreley take a small towel over to the bowl.

She dipped the towel into the bowl and started to gently clean Laila face. All the blood from Laila and the meat was washed off and the small bowl was now filled with a murky, pale red colour. Loreley then helped Laila into the bath and had her rest her head on the edge of the tub. She then placed new cucumber peels on her face "Now we wait." Loreley said as she turned to face Olivia.

"How long?" she asked Loreley as she moved out of her way. "20 minutes... but we are not done. That should help for now but we need to do another facial with the some oils and asses the damage. Since her skin was torn this time we will have to apply some patches to cover it up and give you a crash course on makeup." she said unenthusiastically.

As Loreley was setting everything up in Laila's bedroom, Olivia went and helped wash Laila's hair first and then out of the bath. She carefully dressed her in her bathrobe and helped her into the room as Laila kept her head tilted back, keeping the cucumber peels in place.

Olivia then helped her sit in a chair in front of her vanity and Loreley quickly moved to remove the peels from her face. Olivia gasped, she didn't think that it would have worked so well. Laila's face was back to normal size, there were no bruises and the scratches that extended from one side of her face to the other were now just fine lines.

"The cucumber peels work wonders for acne too!" Laila exclaimed happily. "Stop talking I need to work." Loreley said as she rolled her eyes. She grabbed another small towel that was soaking in bowl of warm water and twisted it until most of the moisture was out. She had Laila tilt her head back, then wrapped the towel around Laila's nose and rest over her face.

While Laila's pores were opening Loreley moved Laila's hair to the side and grabbed the hair blow dryer and a bottle of marula oil. She sprayed her hair before she started to dry it.

10 minutes later Loreley stopped drying Laila's hair. She then removed the towel from her face and passed it to Olivia. "Don't need it anymore." she said bluntly before she grabbed a palm full of coconut oil and she butter. She started working the mixture in her hands until it was semi melted and she added a few drops of lavender and tea tree oil. She then moved her hands to Laila's face. "Watch closely on how I move my fingers over her skin." she instructed Olivia sternly before she started to work.

Olivia moved in closely and watched Loreley's fingers work in the moisturizer. "You want to move the skin in this circular motion to get the blood flowing except for the forehead you move your fingers like this." she unenthusiastically instructed while Olivia only nodded her head keeping her eyes glued to the movement of her fingers.

"Now that we are done we need to do the makeup. Honestly if you can't remember how to do the makeup it's no big deal as long as you get the patch on and foundation we can do the rest." Loreley said nonchalantly as she started to apply the thin patches over Laila's cuts.

Olivia was impressed by Loreley's skills and couldn't believe how flawless Laila's face looked after apply the makeup. "It's like it never happened." she said in awe while Loreley started brushing Laila's hair. "Mmh." she answered while Laila beamed at her sister's reflection with admiration and pride.

"Hey... everything is going to ok right?" Olivia said quietly as she placed a gentle hand on each of the girls' shoulders. Her eyes were pleading for reassurance and Laila quickly placed her own hand on top of Olivia's and gave her a sweet smile. While Loreley moved to remover Olivia's hand off of her and dropped her eyes to the floor. "Laila you better get dressed now, then Olivia can do your hair." Loreley said as she moved towards the door.

"Loreley where are you going?" Laila asked as she got up from the chair. "There's less then an hour left and I need to get ready too. Plus we are probably leaving in 45 minutes so we get there on time." she answered in a rather bored tone. Laila raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms over her chest. "You're hiding something."

Loreley gave them a sad smile and left the room. Leaving Laila dumbstruck and Olivia wondering. She looked at Laila pitifully and Laila just shrugged. "I don't know why she's acting this way" Laila said as she walked to her closet and pulled out a light blue dress. She looked at it longingly and moved her fingers across the fabric. "Do you remember when we all went on a shopping spree with dad?" she whispered.

Olivia felt her tears start to well up in her eyes. "Ya." she whispered back. Laila started to hug the tea dress and silent tears started to spill downwards. "I'm never going to forget him...I don't think I ever can! I don't want that 'thing' to win, so no matter what happens I will always be by your side." she swore under her breath. Olivia hugged her and the dress and they silently cried together after Olivia thanked her from the bottom of her heart.

Soon Laila and Loreley made their way down stairs. Laila looked stunning with her french twist ponytail, the curls from the ponytail elegantly tumbled over her left shoulder and over the shimmering, light blue tea dress. Agni nodded her head in approval as she looked over Laila from head to toe then moved her fox like eyes to Olivia.

"Please mother allow me." Loreley said happily as she bounced over to Olivia. Out of no where Loreley punched Olivia in the face and sent her flying into the stair railing. Olivia tasted metal and was counting herself lucky for catching herself in time and not causing harm to the baby. Laila screamed and rushed to Olivia's aid. "You wench how dare you present yourself before your prestigious master dressed like that!" she bellowed at Olivia with her nose held high in the air.

"Loreley! What do you think you're doing?!" Laila yelled back as she tried to help Olivia to her feet but Olivia just stopped her and slid down to her knees. "It will never happen again! Please forgive me master;" Olivia cried as she brought her hands down to the floor and bowed her head. Loreley stepped on Olivia's head and started to grind her shoe into her.

"B*tch please! You have done more wrongs today then one can count! You deserve a severe punishment so that it will properly educate you!" she said in a deathly tone before she looked at Agni for some guidance. "Well mother what do you think we should do to properly train the little kitty?"

Agni shrugged and started to inspect her nails. "We can rip off her toe nails and feed them to her." she said coolly. Olivia's eyes became wide and she started to shiver. Laila took a step forward and was about to protest but was interrupted by Loreley instead. "What about moving her into a cat house. We can have her live outside when she's bad and bring her back in when she's good." Loreley suggested with a shrug.

Agni brought her index finger to her small red lips and started to tap against them. "I was planning to have a kitty house built outside anyways so when Eli moves in, he won't be tempted to play with the pussy cat and she will still be close enough to serve us." she said teasingly.

When Olivia heard Eli's name she tried to lift herself up but Loreley pushed her face even more against the floor, stopping her from speaking. "Why did you mention Eli?" Laila asked as she clenched her hands into fist. Agni tilted her head and gave her soft smile "My goodness Laila did you not realize you are doing a marriage interview with Eli today! This is priceless! Avery seemed to have changed his will rather recently and left certain things that should be mine in someone else's hands.... well I want them back." she said in a bored tone and moved to play with a strand of loose hair.

Laila opened her mouth to protest but Loreley lifted her foot off of Olivia's head and stomped it against her head with full strength. Olivia let out a pained cry and Laila pursed her lips. Stopping whatever speech she had line up. "Well it's time to go meet Eli, then talk to some builders to start construction right away. Olivia darling I expect you in uniform and have dinner for us when we get back. I'm not sure when we will be back but I want my dinner hot the moment I walk through that door." she said with a wave and started to walk towards the door.

Laila stared down Loreley and gave Olivia a quick look before she followed her mother. Loreley removed her foot and she grabbed Olivia's hair, lifting her face off the floor. "Too bad this house doesn't have a basement to lock you away in." she said with disdain but her eyes were trying to tell her something else. Olivia narrowed her eyes as she looked at Loreley trying to figure out what she was trying to say but Loreley let go of her hair and quickly stood up.

"I'm done with the trash mother." Loreley announced and walked towards the door. Laila took one more look back at Olivia and her heart broke. She hesitated and then felt Loreley's hand grab hers. They both walked out the door leaving Olivia sitting on the floor.

The moment the door closed. Olivia tried to get up quickly and started to run towards her room behind the kitchen. She started searching for the phone under the dresser. She felt relief after she found it and was thankful that Agni didn't sneak away and search the room. She opened up Eli's email icon and quickly started to type.

She waited one minute, 3 minutes, 10 minutes but there was no reply. Olivia reminded herself to give Eli time and to believe in him. She tossed the phone on to the bed and started to change. After she was done braiding her hair she heard the phone 'ping'. She lunged for the phone and opened up the notification.

Her heart dropped to the pit of her stomach when she read the 5 words on the screen. 'We are no longer engaged.'
