23 Ch. 23

I did not go to work, instead I stayed home, in my room. The maids are worrying because Auntie told them to let me eat, but I did not want to go out. I just sat down in my bed and scooted near the window, staring outside with my arms tugging around my knees. I wasn't in myself thinking about the incident last night. He defended her. He could just called me to fetch him at the airport. Then tears started to pour one by one. I feel lifeless. I didn't talk to anyone right now. Just staring straight the window. It is my first time feeling like this, unlike the other times when father cheated on mother and to Uncle William's. It's different when it's really you who got cheated on. Well, I think it's not cheating because we're not together so yeah. I heard my phone rang. I picked it up.

Mia OTP: Yn, I'm downstairs. The maids told me you're not answering them. What happened to you? Did something happened to you?

Sophie OTP: I'm fine. I'm not hungry.

I ended the call and put back down my phone. I could remember what happened before. I could see my mother's tears when I saw her crying in the kitchen. She was acting like nothing happened. She was so brave outside, but she's fragile. I kept on crying. I tuck myself in a blanket. 'YOU'RE DISRESPECTFUL!' 'YOU'RE LIKE YOUR MOTHER' 'THIS IS YOUR NEW STEP MOTHER' the voice keeps on saying through my head. "STOP! I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT! NOOOO! I HATE YOU!!!" I shouted and held my head shaking it. I stumbled on the ground causing a loud thud. I hurt my arms and elbows. It hurt a lot. I screamed in pain and still the voice isn't going away. "NO! STOP! STOP!" I shouted while shaking my head. Then the next thing I feel is pain. I trip down and my head hit the edge of the table then black out.

Mia Pov:

I heard screaming from Sophie's room. I ran upstairs and tried to open her room, but failed. It's locked. I heard a loud thud and I began to panic. I called the maids and told them to get the keys. She's still shouting, saying 'stop'. I was worried hell. Then the maid got the keys and trying to find which key is Sophie's room. I then heard another thud then it became quiet. My palms were sweating. My heart began to race. When the door is opened, we only saw Sophie, lying lifelessly on the ground, blood surrounds on the ground. I held her in my arms. "Call 911!" I told them. "Yn what have you've done." I called Ethan.

Ethan OTP: Mia, I'm not in the mood to chit chat.

Mia OTP: What do you mean? Sophie,

I couldn't finished my sentence.

Ethan OTP: Sophie? What happened to her? Did something happened?

Mia OTP: Yes, but I did not know what exactly happened to her. Please come here ASAP.

Ethan OTP: I'll be there.

I ended up the call and heard sirens. The emergency must be here.

Minutes later, I saw Ethan running towards the van. He saw Sophie and tear up. "What happened to her?" he asked while holding back his sob. "I really don't know what exactly happened because when I got here, I was told that she doesn't want to eat. She didn't even went to work. Then, I decided to call her. She just said, she's not hungry and hang up. I was about to go home when I heard her screaming then some loud thuds." I said to him and he looks really serious from my story. "What did she scream?" he asked and I recall back what she was yelling. "I heard her say, 'stop' 'no' 'I don't want to hear it'. I looked at him getting inside the van where Sophie is and I followed.
