My Stepbrother and I

Chapter 3

It's been two weeks since my mum revealed to me that she is getting married and I've been going my normal life since then, but this week is going to be more dramatic because today is the wedding of my mum and her new husband.

I've been trying to process this since I woke up at five, I'm going to meet my mum's new family. I heard that he has four children. Two boys and two girls and now I'm going to be an additional girl to the family.

I was so lost in my thoughts that I had no idea my mum had been calling my name for a while.

She tapped me and I jumped out of shock.

"What are you thinking about ?" She asked.

"Nothing," I lied.

"Nothing?" She asked.

"Well, yes," I said.

"I know you must be so nervous right now, but I want you to know that everything will be okay," She assured me.

"I know, I'm just sad we are finally leaving this house," I said while looking at the house and remembering my childhood memories in this house.

My mum also took her time to look at the house. The childhood memories I was talking about was the memories with my dad.

How my dad was when he was still alive m, he was so fun and lively, we built sandcastles outside and did a whole lot of things most kids don't get to to with their parents. But after a while he had cancer and passed away.

I keep wondering what he would be thinking now that we are leaving the house and joining a new family.

Is he happy or sad, I keep wondering.

My mum hugged me and whispered to my ear.

"Everything will be okay,"

I nodded and composed myself and said.

"I'm okay, I'm so sorry, today is supposed to be your happy day and I'm here crying,"

"It's okay," She said.

"Let's get ready for some party," I said and I went to start getting ready for the wedding.

"I'll be leaving now," She said as she closed the door.

I wore my best gown, it is a channel gown, I've been saving this gown for a special occasion, and since this wedding is a special occasion, I should wear it.

I got dressed and I looked so beautiful in the gown, I starred in the mirror for what felt like thirty ten minutes.

After that I started carrying my luggages downstairs, after the wedding, we are moving to his house.

I just hope this man is worth it, I mean making us leave our house, only for him to have a much worse house.

I kept on staring around the walls of the house, thinking of old times.

"Hey, you ready ?" My mum asked.

"Yeah," I replied.

She has also packed her luggages, and we heard a honk outside the house.

"They are finally here," She said.

"Who ?" I asked.

"You'll see," She said.

I was so curious, I ran to the door and opened to see who it was. After opening the door, I saw a limousine parked outside waiting for us.

"There's no way," I whispered to myself.

They brought a godamn limousine to pick me, her fiance must be very rich at this point.

All my doubts and thoughts about him, disappeared immediately.

I entered the limousine without hesitation. This is my first time I'm entering such.

I took my time to enjoy the moment, some of the guys that followed the driver started packing out luggages into the boot of the limousine, I felt like a princess for the first time in my life. Maybe it's time for my princess fantasy to come to pass.

As I sat down comfortably in the car, I was waiting for my mum to get into the car too. But as I was waiting, they closed the door of the car and started driving.

"Wait!! What of my mom?" I asked with confusion on my face.

"She's alright, another car is coming to take her, so she can properly get ready for the wedding." One of the guys said to me.

Like that was enough to convince me, I feel like I was being kidn*pped in the broad daylight.

"This is crazy," I said out loud.

"You have to calm down, everything is alright," He said again.

His voice is not even helping, so deep, like those serial killers in horror movies.

I took my phone and tried calling he, but she was not picking up her call. Or was she kidn*pped too? I was already confused as it was.

I tried to clam myself down, from my experience in horror movies, if the victim tries to prove stubborn, they might silence them.

I just hope my mum is fine.

After a few minutes drive, the car entered the gate of s huge mansion. Why am I being taken here ? Is my mum holding a very big secret of a huge company.

After the car parked, they opened the door for me and there were servants and maids ready to greet me, I was so shocked, the all bowed their head to greet me.

I couldn't possibly comprehend what was going on. One of the maids came towards me, and said, "I will lead the way," And she was going, I immediately followed her as I have no idea what was going on.

As I entered the house, I've never seen any house like this in my life, only in those movies where the people are rich as hell, but I'm in the house for real, this seems like a dream.

We kept on walking till she finally got to the door of a room. She opened the door and this room was heavenly decorated,.I was wondering whose room it was.

"This is your room ma'am," She said.

I turned back to look at who she was talking to and I saw no one, there is no way she was talking to me.

"Who ?" I asked while I was still turning my head around to see who she was talking to.

"You ma'am," She said.

"Me ?" I was confused.

"Yes ma'am," She said as she was programmed to keep saying that word.

"No I think you've got me for someone else," I said.

She started looking confused.

"What is my name ?" I asked to see if she had the right person, to avoid embarrassment.

"Allyson Jones," She said confidently.

She definitely has the right person, but how come ?

"I'll be right back," She said as she left the room.

I took a moment to admire the room, and the room is so huge, I was even wondering if im going to share the room with someone.

The woman came back with a designer bag in her hand.

"This is your dress," She said as she dropped the bag in the bed.

"Which dress ?" I asked looking confused.

"The dress you are going to wear to the wedding," She said.

I really don't like the fact that they want to give me a dress like I'm too broke to have my own dress.

"I already have mine," I said in a very unfriendly manner.

"Oh I'm sorry, I was just instructed to give it to you," She said.

"I'm not really comfortable with the idea of wearing the dress," I said.

I walked towards the bag, and decided to check the dress, I saw that it was a dress from Balmain latest collection, I was beyond shocked.

"Let me return it them," She said as she was about to take the bag.

After taking a look at the dress, I realized my dress is no competition to this.

"Uhm, I was just joking," I said.

"Please leave it," I added.

"Ok, whatever you say," she said and she left.

I took the dress and wore it.

After wearing the dress, I heard a knock at the door.

"Come in," I said.

A woman came in with a glam team, I was wondering what they were looking for.

"We are here to do your make up, and style your hair," she said.

"Okay," I said very slowly.

They took their time to apply make up on my face, and style my hair, I felt like a princess, this has always been my dream.

After they were done with my look, they excused themselves and left.

I looked in the mirror and saw that I look much beautiful than before.

I decided to take some pictures, even though I was not going to post any of them.

I tried calling my mum again, but she still isn't picking up, I just hope she is okay.
