Kayla was going through her assignments "Today is Sunday, why do we have to have classes on Saturday? now I have so much homework to do" she clenched on the pillow.
"Philosophy? Cleaning up after school? This how it feels to be a teenager high school sucks"she said to herself
"Be patient dear at least for awhile"the voice said.
"Your father wishes to see you in the dinner"Catherine said as she stood in front of the door.
"Well I won't be having breakfast today so might as tell him"
"Yes my lady"
"Geez Diana? I can do it without her help....concentrate i can find some answers online " she said to herself as she stood up and pick up her laptop from the desk and lay on the bed . IN THE DINING ROOM
"Where is she?"Mr Wayne asked
"She is in her room"She replied
"Didn't you tell her" he said with a skeptical eyebrow
"I did.. she said she won't be having breakfast today"the maid mumbled
Mr Wayne took a sip of tea his facial expression instantly change
"What is wrong?"she asked
"Where is Sonia?" He said with a mix of concern
"We haven't seen her this morning" Agnes ( the head Maid)
"What do you mean she didn't sleep in dorm"Mr Wayne asked
"Well... she.. did but we couldn't find her this morning"Agnes stammered
"Apart from her who else is missing"Mr Wayne said with authority in his tone
"Mr crock too, he usually water the garden"Agnes replied
"Did he slept here last night"Mr Wayne asked
"Yes.."Agnes said her voice shaking.
"Make me coffee instead i am certain you know how to do it"Mr Wayne ordered.
"Why do I have this feeling that she knows something about it?" Mr Wayne said to himself.
James walked in and sat down
Sudden the atmosphere turn tense because neither of them usually speak to eachother only in terms of business.
"How was work I heard your company seems to improve"he asked with curiosity
"Yes I would be staying over a friend place so I won't make for dinner"he drank his tea.
"No not this time around"
"I appreciate your concern but my decision is final"he stood up and left.
"Jam- -" his conversation was interpreted by the maid
"Here it is"as she placed on it in front of him
"Thank you"he took a sip of coffee
"I would have to deal with her later"he said to herself and left the mansion with 3 bodyguards
In Kayla room
"Finally done with the assignments, I wonder what Diana is doing?"as she stretch her body
"Hey Diana"she called out her name while knocking the door
"My lady what are doing here"she said as she was a bit surprised
"Well I am bored so what are you doing"she sat down on the bed
"My lady you gave me a day off"Diana was a bit embarrassed because she didn't tidy her room.
"Sonia isn't around so let have a bit of fun"she said with a smile.
"That is strange is usual for her to be late"Diana could hardly believe
"Can you stop talking about her!!"she yelled at her
"I am sorry my lady if I offended you"
"No you need rest right sorry for been a burden to you"she said as she did a slight bow.
"What do you want to do board games"
"What about you sneak me out of here I want to say 'hi' to a friend of mine"
"Let me guess an archenemy you know you are not patronize to go out"Diana cautioned her
"You can't say 'NO' to your mistress"she said with sincerity
" I respect you a lot my lady but the guards won't allow it even if I agree and there is cctv camera"Diana concluded
"Fine let play golf i can't wait to beat you"she winked at her with a smirk
"Go downstairs kid" she smiled at her
Kayla wore a black T-shirts' and a short jeans
While waiting for Diana
"My lady are you ready?"
"Yes" she smiled warmly at her
Diana and Kayla spent hours playing all sort of games till they both laid on the grass in the courtyard
"That was great we should do it another time"
"Yeah" their conversation was cut short due to sound of a car.
"What is the time?"Kayla asked.
"Probably around 6pm we head back inside my lady"
They rushed in through the back entrance and Kayla sneak back into her room feeling exhausted and sleepy as she lay on the bed.
"Why did he had come back early shouldn't he be in some stupid meeting by now"she murmured to herself as she stared blankly at the ceiling
"My lady your father wants to see in his office now"
"Tell him I will be with him in a moment" she stood and enter the bathroom
"First I need to look presentable before father Why now? I am not in the mood for interrogation"she turn on the water and washed her face and brush her hair
In his office
"Where are their bodies?"he asked
"What are talking ab-"he slice her throat with a jackknife, the wound heal without leaving a trace of blood.
"I put their bodies in the crematory. Inside the secret room"
"What? ....How long did.. you "he stammered.
"A month ago"Kayla cut him off
"Rules are rules and you defy my orders"he yelled at her.
"They did. No one is allowed to stay up at night during curfews and forbidden love is not tolerated in the mansion"
"That isn't an excuse you should have told me"he raised his voice at her.
"No, I remember why I was afraid of you. You kept taunting me and manipulating me just keep me wrapped around your hands"she said in a fit of rage.
"So what? You are not my daughter "he said with a demeanor expression.
"You should be more concerned about detective khan than others, he is on our trail"Kayla left the room leaving him stunned.
