your secret are safe with me

" Megannnnnn" an angry voice called , that was my mom's voice, what did I do this time.

When she called again it sent a shiver down my spine.

I ran downstairs to see the chef standing next to her , I wasn't in my brother room cause he was busy,I too was equally busy .

I had to work on my voice for the music competition, my music lesson teacher didn't come cause it was his day off.

my senior sister who was also my worst enemy sat on a couch in the living room, she stared up in irritation which was visible on her face, " did you eat ? " my mom asked the woman that never cared asked in an irritated tone .

I couldn't answer because I didn't eat, " what kind of child are you ? , do you want people to say I don't care about ?, do you want them to say that am maltreating you ? " she asked.

" when did you ever care ? , you only care about what people says, that's because you are a model and dad is a well known business man ..." I said I was shocked cause I spoke to her that way.

" would you shut up , you monster "

" just stop acting like you care , it hurt "

" did you dare open that filthy mouth of yours to talk" she raised her hand ,I closed my eyes waiting for what will happen next but I didn't feel anything, I slowly opened my eyes to see my brother holding her hand .

he dropped her hands roughly and stared into her eyes with anger , " don't you dare raise a finger on her ,stop acting like you care, stop hurting her, she did nothing to deserve your hatred " my brother was her favorite, who was everybody's favorite, so mom didn't say anything he dragged me out of the house.

" why didn't you eat ? " he asked as we walked down the street.

" I wasn't hungry " he got me a snack and a drink.

" let go shopping now"

" ok " .

" when last did you shop ? "

" last time, that was when you came home "

" gosh Mercy you don't mean it " .

" I do can we now" I said as I finished with the snack and drink.

we made our way to the shopping mall ,my dad was not the only person who owned this shopping mall , maybe I forgot to tell you that Brandon's dad and my dad where best friends, so he too had a share in this mall.

we went in and the woman behind the counter shouted, " wow Mercy it been a long time, oh I see brother is back, welcome back how are you doing ? " she said with a smile.

Everyone knew me as Mercy, I hated the name Megan, it sounded like a curse to me cause it was given to me by the two people who hated me.

while we were shopping Sharon greeted us and continued searching for books, my brother stared at me, " let me help Sharon with the book search " I said with a smile as I tried walking away.

" Mercy" my brother called.

" what ? " I questioned , " well your secret is safe with me I won't spill the beans" he sighed and watched me walk away.
