TROUBLESOME FAMILY : CHAPTER 1 – 10
CHAPTER 02
By Ariel Mirabel
Stephanie walked out of her room, wearing an oversized shirt with a bum short. Her hair was still wet, showing that she was just from showering.
She went to the living room and sat down beside Scarlett. Scarlett was busy watching a movie, stuffing her face with popcorn.
Stephanie smirked and took the remote controller then switched the channel to news.
“What the h’ll! What’s wrong with you Steph? Put it back!!” Scarlett snapped.
Stephanie shook her head and stood up, running to one corner of the living room. They began running round the living room..
Stephanie’s gaze traveled to the television and she paused on her track, making Scarlett to bump on her.
“Omg..he’s so handsome!” Stephanie gushed.
Scarlett looked at the TV and rolled her eyes.
“So you’re still obsessed with this man that you’ve never met before” Scarlett crossed her arms.
“It’s not obsession..it’s love!” Stephanie smiled.
Scarlett laughed sarcastically..
“Yeah! Love..I see” Scarlett said.
Stephanie smiled widely staring at the man on TV. He was just too handsome, despite the cold look on his face, he was perfect..
“Raymond..” Stephanie smiled, touching his face on the screen.
“Seeing you smile this much for a man you’ve never met creeps me out.. I’m off to bed!” Scarlett said and went to her room.

The Kendall**
Behind the mansion, at the swimming pool a music was blaring loudly as the DJ did his job..putting the whole party in a funky atmosphere.
?This party is so cool Tara!
? You look so hot Tara..
? This party is lit!!
Tara smiled, hearing the various comments about her party. She walked to the podium with the cocktail she was sipping and took the mic.
“Enjoy yourself to your fullest.. At my house, there’s no dull moments” Tara winked and got down the podium.
She looked around and smirked.
“Looks like she isn’t coming.. Too bad, I had a surprise prepared for her” Tara muttered to herself.

“Thanks for the ride and come pick me up by 10” Monica said.
“Okay miss” The driver nodded and drove off.
Monica faced Tara’s mansion and sighed as some of her childhood memories began coming back to her.
She shook it off and walked in the house.
“Good evening Miss Watterson” The guards greeted politely.
“Thanks, I’m here for the party.. Can you lead me in?” She asked…
“Sure, please follow me” A guard said and led the way.
She looked around as they got to the pool. The guard turned and left..
“Moni!!” Ursula called, coming to her. She was wearing a blue bikini.
“You came? I sense trouble..” Ursula crossed her arms.
“Of course not.. I’m here to have fun!” Monica smirked and walked to the cabinet to change.
“I don’t believe you.” Ursula said, following her.
Few minutes later, Monica walked out of the cabinet. She looked at her self on the mirror and smiled.
She was wearing purple bikini with red hearts printed on it. Her hair was packed up in a ponytail.
“You look hot!” Ursula smiled.
“Thanks” She smiled..
They saw people gathering by the podium so they followed the crowd to see what was happening.
“Hello everyone! So I have a surprise for you guys.. We have a special guest among us and I want you all to warmly welcome him. He just landed in our country” Tara said.
“Let’s all welcome the one and only Skye Devain!!” Tara said.
Screams erupted here and there as a tall handsome young man walked in the area.
“Omg,, it’s it’s him Monica. Its Skye! Ahh!!!” Ursula screamed.
Monica had to block her ears from the screams coming from everywhere.
“Hey everyone..” Skye said on the mic with that heart melting smile of his.. The screams doubled.
“So, I’m happy of being here among you guys and I want to say a special thank you to a good friend of mine Tara who made it possible.. So enjoy your party everyone, love you all” He blew a kiss and got down the stage.
Girls swoon around him, asking for his autograph and pictures. Ursula wasn’t left out..
Tara finally saw Monica. She smirked as she slowly walked to Monica…
“You came? Does this place bring back old memories?” Tara said.
Monica folded her fists tightly glaring at Tara. Tara’s gaze traveled down to Monica’s body and she smirked..
“Still as shapeless as before..” Tara said.
Monica suddenly smiled, she took two steps closer to Tara.
“I bought you a present.. Hope you would like it?” Monica said, dipping her hand into the bag she kept carrying.
Before Tara could know what was happening, Monica brought out something from her bag and poured it on Tara’s face.
“Ahh!!!” Tara screamed in pains, making everyone turn to them.
“You like your gift? That was just a payback to what you did to me on my 14 anniversary.. You’re lucky I didn’t pour hot pepper on you like you did to me, I took the soft one so it will he over in few minutes” Monica smirked.
“My eyes” Tara cried as she kept rubbing her eyes but it only got worst.
She couldn’t see where she was heading to, making her slip. She fell into the pool
Everyone gasped in the process…
The water helped clear off the pepper from Tara’s eyes. She brought out her face from water and glared at Monica.
“You..!!” Tara pulled Monica inside water.
What followed was a fight. They began fighting in the water, pulling and dragging their hairs.
“I hate you!!” Tara screamed.
“I hate you more!!” Monica said.
“This is getting out of control..” Skye thought.
He plunged inside water and swum to them then he pulled Tara out of the water.
“Let me go! I’ll teach her a lesson..” Tara screamed as Skye took her away.
Monica breathed heavily as she swept her hair backwards.
? Just look at how Monica ruined the party for everyone
? Geez! She’s just so jealous of Tara
? Let’s go..
Monica looked around as the others began leaving one by one, throwing mean look at her..
“As usual,, I’m the bad guy in the story” Monica said hurtfully.
She came out of the water and ran away, running pass Ursula.
“Hey! Moni!” Ursula called but she was gone.

*****Later.
Monica sat down by the road, not far from Tara’s house. She hugged her body, waiting for her driver to come.
“Everybody always thinks I’m the one who caused all these, if only they knew” Monica thought and buried her face on her knees.
“Hey, are you okay?.” A voice said.
Monica looked up to see it was the so called Skye. He crouched down beside her..
“I’m fine! Go back to your ‘good friend of yours’ I want to be alone…” Monica snapped.
The cold wind blew on them and she shivered but tried hiding it..
“Are you sure you’re okay?” Skye asked and she ignored him.
Skye sighed at her stubbornness. He removed his leather jacket and then covered her with it.
Monica looked up at him and their gaze locked. They stared at each other for a while till a honk was heard .
Monica looked front to see it was her driver. She immediately stood up.
“Thanks for the jacket… Bye” She muttered and rushed to her car.
“Wait, what’s your..”
The car immediately drove off…
“Name” Skye finished what he wanted to say.

Donovan Mansion**
A pair of cold eyes slowly flew open. A man gently rose up, sitting on the bed. He brushed his dark hair to the back.
His broad and muscular shoulders could be seen, spotless and enticing chest with a tattoo drawn on his left chest.
He slowly stood up from the bed and went to his bathroom, running a cold shower.
Once he was through, he wore his suit and then styled his hair before picking up his suitcase. He walked out of his room.
“Good morning sir”
“Good morning sir”
He ignored their greetings and walked out of his house, heading to his car.
Immediately he entered, his phone began ringing.
“Yes?” He said.
“Boss, today you have a meeting with one of your business partners. Few minutes from now..” A man said.
“Okay , I’m on my way..” He replied and hung up..
He ignited his engine and drove out of his mansion..
