Alphas Revenge

Hate you, little boy

“Hey loser,” Dre yelled, “pass me the book”.

Dre was sitting on the sofa, and was too lazy to get the book from the table - which was right in front of her. In her understanding, Liam who just entered her house was the right candidate to get the job done.

“Dreamy!! Is this the way you talk?”, her mother yelled at her.

Dre did not expect her mother to be here for starting. She has a idea how her mother can react, when it comes to Liam. This magic prankster!!

Arora, Dre's mother, had let go of some irrational behavior of Dre, but these days, she is regretting her mistake. She can visibly see the difference - Liam always said about.

Her daughter and Liam have a difference in waters. Though why she is reacting to Liam like this is a mystery for her too.

“Let go, Arora. They are kids,” Maxie, Liam’s mom who was standing on the door, took the matter in her hand.

She was a fun and loving woman. Because of some family issues, she and her husband had come to Texas. They were new in the area, and the sweet lady does not want any other drama to handle. Also, Arora and her husband, were extra nice to them, on the needed time.

Maxie, also does not mind a haughty girl commanding her boy. In her mind, she does not want Liam, to be like his father - commanding and stiff. She can sense that little girl, do not like Liam very much. And girls can be mean.

“No, this is the way, I prefer not to see. She is becoming unruly as the days go by,” Arora chided.

“Oh my, leave the kids alone and help me with the Veggies in the kitchen,” Maxie tried to toss the issue.

Arora nodded at her and gave her daughter a stern look, “If I see you talking to him like that, I will complain to your dad about it. Get it?”

Dre nodded. But in her mind, she had promised to make Liam sorry about this. She has been scolded by her mother often, but Dad is another page. She does not welcome the thought of her dad scolding her, over a boy.

As soon as her mother exited for the kitchen. She got up from the sofa and get to the little boy. Liam was playing with his toy car when she tapped her foot right in front of him.

“You see that loser, what you did?” she said to him.

She knew her parents are helping his parents and somehow got the wrong idea, of her family having an upper hand. She did not like the Kid anyway, from the start.

“I did not do a thing,” he said, mumbling and taking his toy car in his hand. He did not want it to get ruined somehow. It was his favorite toy and the only close thing he called a friend. Dre’s mother gave it to him, when he was sitting alone once.

“Really. I don’t think so.” she said while eyeing him with disgust. She did not like him coming near her, in her house, near a mile distance.

“My mom just scolded me because of you,” she said, pointing to him. All stupid things in her life are all because of him, anyway, she thought.

He looks down. He was not the one who complained; he wanted to say. But it was not the only question that he wanted to ask. He wanted to ask many - why is he not involved in the game they play. Why they are so mean to him? Why she is so mean to him?

He did not do a thing to her, then why?

“Now, what? Your lips sealed!!,” Dre said mockingly, standing close right on his head. She wanted to exert all her dominance on the very mouse she captured. Not leaving a chance to let the guy go out of her hold. He was her captive, after all.

“My daughter really has a loudmouth for someone who’s only income is a tooth fairy,” Arora's voice came in.

She was with Maxie, who was smiling nonstop. “Leave the poor girl alone,” she said while sitting on the sofa and keeping the tray of cookies on the table.

“Come here kids, have some cookies,” Maxie said joyfully to the kids.

Dre seeing cookies craved for bountiful. Aunt Maxie's cookies were her favorite for 2 reasons. One, she gets that many she wants and two, her mom does not know to bake good chocolate cookies with choco chips in it. She ran towards the table and extended her hands to fill with cookies. But her mother stood right in front of the table.

“Mother” she cried.

“No, mother here,” Arora scolded her daughter, “did you see the way you talk to him. Is that right?”

It was time for Dre to look down. She nodded as no. Maxie melted at the scene and try to bail her out, “Oh, Arora, let her go this time. She will learn”, she negotiated.

“No, not this time. She will not have a cookie, not even one” Dre’s mother commanded. She knew it was the point she had to be strict with her daughter.

She looked over at Liam and smiled at him.

“Liam, my boy. Come here” she said to him and Liam stepped in front.

“Here, these are your cookies. Okay. Eat them all, you don’t have to share” she said, tossing his hair. Liam looked at Dre and then at her mother, nodding slightly. He took the bowl and sat on the couch eating one, after the other.

Her favorite cookies got eaten by her very enemy, Dre did not like the thought of it. “Mom” Dre cried while holding her mother's dress. Arora snatched her dress out of her hands and eyes her girl, “This is your punishment. You - learn and next time you will get cookies”.

Tears trembled in the eyes of Dre. But she bit her cheek to hold her tears from falling. She looked over at Liam who has eaten her tasty chocolate cookies. Hate ran in her eyes.

She knew what she has to do.
