18 Hey Stephen

Alexa was busy organizing her clothes when the door was slammed open.

Her eyes narrowed as she watched her sister strolled towards the bed and tossed her suitcase on the mattress.

"What are you doing in my room?" she asked when Louisa took her creepy toys out of her luggage and lay it on the bed.

"Packing out," Louisa wrote down on her pad.

Alexa let out a bitter chuckle and patted her sister's head repeatedly.

"Nice one Isa, but your sleeping in the other bedroom. This room is Alexandria Su zone. So shoo!" one hand grabbing her suitcase while the other was pushing Louisa's back towards the door.

Louisa hardened her body and stomped her feet. She stopped by the door and let out a deafening shrill.

Alexa's skin shivered by Louisa's scream. She dropped the suitcase and swiftly cover Lousia's mouth.

"Stop screaming Louisa!" she glared at her.

"Do you want this room?" she continued.

The girl nodded while tears ran down from her eyes. And those crystal tears were like knives piercing her heart. Alexa has suddenly felt guilty. She turned her back on Louisa and started packing again.

Seeing the sorrow on her sister's face. She could not help but to give what Louisa wants.

Louisa's innocent face has brightened up, beneath her longs bangs, Alexa could see how much her little sister appreciate it.

As her feet made it ways towards the door, Louisa tiptoed to place a kiss on her cheek.

That simple gesture made her heart to skip a beat. Louisa has never shown her sweet side to anyone except their father and just getting a kiss from her has made her tiredness disappeared.

She patted her head once again and sighed. She was proud of Louisa and will do everything to stop anyone who bullies her but, of course, she and her twin brother were an exemption.

"I know you are tired so I will get Leo and Ethan to pack out your toys," she softly said.

Hearing those words, Louisa's expression became delicate.

She felt Alexa's lips on her forehead. When she had finally left the room Louisa lifted her face and giggled.

(And that's the story of how I got this bedroom) she said in her mind and lay on the bed with her skeleton doll next to her.

Getting her eyes wet was not hard, especially if it's beneficial.

Meanwhile, as Alexa ran downstairs to look after her sibling, she realized that she has been played by her little sister.

Her expression and tears were the same whenever she wanted their mother to buy her new toys.

(Holy mother. I've been played) her feet which were supposed to find her brother have decided to check on the other bedrooms.

Shortly after she finished packing, Selena came.

"Are you fine sharing room with me?" Selena asked.

"Please! If I want to sleep with the dead I'd go to the cemetery,"

"Pfft..." Selena giggled and threw her phone on the lower bunk of the bed.

The room was small. It has a bunk bed, walls painted in white. A small rectangular study table with a lamp on it and a full-body mirror on the wall and two closets were leaning on the wall.

"Where's our bathroom?" Selena asked after taking the toiletries bag she has in her luggage.

"There are three toilets in this house. Mommy has one in their bedroom, one on the ground floor and the other was just next door. We will have to share the toilet with others." Alexa spoke.

Selena gasped in disbelief. She looked outside and found a bathroom which only has a shower.

"There's no tub?" surprise was still in her voice.

Alexa nodded and handed her the towel she got from the cabinet.

"Yes. I was shocked too. Imagine using the toilet Louisa used to wash her skeleton. Ew!" Alexa exaggerated every word she says. Arms wrapped around her body, her minds imagine who creepy it was to shower with a human skeleton.

Selena sat down on the bed and turned to Alexa.

"You will take the upper bed right?"

"Yes. Do I have a choice?" Alexa replied and climbed up to fix her bed.

On the other side, Leo and Ethan were debating who gets to sleep on the upper bed.

They had done unpacking and even helped their sister Louisa to organized her toys.

Their room was painted in white, there was no television and the only furniture inside was the bed, study table, and two closets.

"I am the eldest here Leo. So you have to listen when I say I will get the upper bed."

Leo scoffed by Ethan's words.

"Yeah, 5 minutes older," he sarcastically replied.

"It counts Leo. Even mommy respects Uncle Danny since he's older. So being 5 minutes older than you, I am expecting the same respect," Ethan crossed his arms together as he stood in front of Leo with a proud expression.

Leo blows a sigh and pasted the poster with his favorite model in it on the wall. He has been collecting all the photos and magazine of his favorite model Angie Morel, his Uncle Matthew has always said that he should appreciate the beauty.

Thinking of beauty, Leo decided to send his friend Cassie a message.

'Hey, we just arrived. When do you want to meet up?'

He played with his lips and waited for her response.

When Ethan defeated Leo in their arguments. He proudly climbed up to the bed to settle himself.

When his phone buzzed, his hand lazily took the phone out of his pocket and found that he has a message notification on his Facebook account, it the same girl as before.

'Hi Ethan, I heard you were here. I am planning to meet up Leo. Will you come?'

Ethan shut his eyes and thought it out. He doesn't have a plan to make friends with anyone. All he wanted was to make something his parents will be proud of.

His fingers started typing to reply to her.

'No' it was a short message he wrote with a flat expression.

When Leo's phone suddenly rang, his hand immediately grabbed the phone laying on the bed and excitedly opened the message.

His bright expression has suddenly faded when he read Cassie's response.

Maybe next time. I need to prepare for the school opening.

Sadness crossed over his face. He sighed and replied 'ok'.

He has been crushing her since he was five. He did everything to keep in contact with her secretly and now that he has a chance to get close to her, Leo has decided to do everything to win her.
