My brother In-law

Chapter 8

Chapter 8

Mia's p.o.v

Half an hour later I started hearing loud knocks coming from the door. I didn't stop weeping, actually I was weeping by the door. I'm sure the person knocking could have been hearing my weeps the whole time.

I ignored the knock and continued crying but instead the knock got more louder, I just had to know who the person was. That person was just interrupting me! I needed to be alone and cry alone! I didn't want to be in someone else's arm and cry this time. I just wanted to be alone...it's like I feel lonely.

I'm so scared and cold. I'm scared that Mark would leave me one day, that is my greatest fear. I don't want that to happen...I hope Matt and his mother don't break me and Mark's relationship.

I really love Mark a lot.

This time I needed my family the most, no one else apart from them...not even Mark.

Mark's mother treat me so bad, she made me feel so bad about myself.

Why can't I cry in peace! Is it so much to ask for?! I don't want any embracement or sympathy! I just want to cry everything out!

I don't want to stay in Mark's family mansion any longer! I really don't! I'm so scared now! Even Matt's word made me get scarier than before, what of if I lose Mark! What of if he leaves me for someone else.

All these thoughts were in my mind.

I'm still the angry person now getting offended by the one person who's disturbing me!

Gosh I want to be alone.

The knock kept on getting louder, why can't the person go?.

Is the person not tired of knocking?!

I'm already angry and I don't want to get more angrier arrgh!!!

I immediately wiped my tears off, got up from the floor and then unbolted the door.

It was Mark by the door.

When I saw him I tried to slam the door at his face...guess what? Already to late...he pushed the door at me and got in.

He won.

Mia: What do you want! Why are you here Mark?!

Mark: I came to stay with you Mia, I know you're feeling bad right now. I'm so sorry Mia.

Mia: I don't need your sorry! Leave Mark, I demand for privacy.

Mark: So you do not need me to cry with you.

Mia: Yes I don't! I don't need you Mark! I can't believe! Your mother despise me so much! You lied to me Mark. You told me she loved me when she didn't! You deceived me and tricked me! How could you Mark?

With tears rolling down my cheeks.

Mark: I'm so sorry.

Mia: you're sorry? you're sorry!! Why did you?! Why did you trick me into this marriage without letting me know the life I'm gonna live with you! Why! Why Mark?! I don't need any sorry! I want to know the truth.

I started crying bitterly.

Mark doesn't respond back, he had pity for me, he was so sad by seeing me cry. I could read it on his face.

When he wanted to put his hands on me to console me, I slapped his hands off. He was feeling sad.

Mia: don't touch me Mark! I just need to know why? I clearly know she hates but for what reason? What did I do to deserve this hatred from your mother and why didn't you not tell me first! Why Mark?!

Mark: I- i thought if I was going to inform at the start about my mum hatred for you then you would no longer want to get married to me again. I was afraid to lose you.

Mia: lose me? Just cause of that? are you for real?! Then maybe you thought that cause you never trusted me! Mark what do I always tell you? Do you remember?

Mark: you said nothing could ever change the way you feel for me.

Mia: Right, so why would you think that way?! Maybe if you would have informed me at the start I could know how to handle myself with her but you lied to me Mark! Mark you deceived me! How could you Mark? You wouldn't have Mark! Your mother hates me so much Mark and I-i can't just handle this anymore!

Mark: What did you expect me to do Mia! I was craving for you! you know start a family with you! I didn't want that to be lost, you have to believe me Mia!

I nodded my head while still crying bitterly.

Mia: So I guess how I would continue to live my life in your family mansion is to always cry!!! Mark I don't want to stay here any longer! I want to leave! No one loves me here! I don't belong here Mark!!!! and I don't care if you say it's forbidden for a Walton heir son to leave the family mansion because it is a tradition for the sons to have a family inside the mansion and only the ladies could leave to their husband's house but I'm dying inside Mark!!! Didn't you hear your mother? She said my place is in the bore hole and you couldn't do any f*****g thing about that! You couldn't! You kept quiet! I want to leave from here! I've only stayed here for a week and look at the result! What would happen if it is a month huh! This is not living Mark! I want to live! Yeah! I want to live!

I shouted so loud at him.

That was the loudest tune I've ever used in my whole life, after talking I could feel like my voice gradually seizing.

Mark: babe...I'm sorry on behalf of my mother, just come here. You're crying too much.

I sniffed.

Mia: why does she hate me? I need to know.

Mark: I can't let you know that.

Mia: but why?

Mark: I'm sorry I can't. I feel bad about myself cause you have told me everything about your life , you've always loved me unconditionally and I messed up, I'm sorry I can't.

I continued crying bitterly.

Mark: you have always told me truth and told me everything...

No I haven't, I have apart from what Matt is doing to me, I don't want Mark to say that anymore. It's disturbing me.

Mark: I'm so sorry Mia...you have never lied to me and I...d-i..

Before he could complete his statement I cut him off rudely.

Mia: Just Stop! Stop it! I don't want to hear any more word!

Mark: But why? You haven't lied to me or have you?

Mia: Mark stop!! Just stop!! Please just stop!!

Mark: I'm sorry Mia...

Mark came close to me and pulled me in for a hug. I let him do that, I was already tired of shouting.

No doubt I needed Mark, I needed to cry on him.

Then I continued crying bitterly on his chest while he consoles me.

Mark: I'm so sorry babe..

Mia: It's okay...I forgive you Mark...but promise me we will get through this together..

Mark: I promise..

I then continued crying bitterly.

Matt p.o.v.

I was just eaves dropping on Mia and Mark's conversation, they didn't know I was there the whole time.

My princess, she's crying so much. How I wish I was there to console her. I can't believe my mother! How dare she talk to Mia like that! I also heared when Mia shouted at my mother! She defended herself for the very first time. My mother deserved it, I was pleased.

I feel sad cause I'm not the one to console her but my brother is.

Damn! What I wanted to happen just failed! I thought Mia would be mad at Mark but she didn't end up doing that! Mark lied to her and yet she isn't mad?! Wow! She's a goddess...I want her.

She even said they would get through this together.

But guess what I ain't gonna let that happen. I'm so gonna break their bond.

Shortly afterwards my personal assistance approached me, he then told me that my Dad wanted to see everyone in order to have a word with all of them.

I asked why and he told me that he doesn't know and that my Dad demands for everyone in the 2cnd floor parlor. I told him I was going to come there soon, after doing so I told him to leave my sight.

I'm sure Mark assistance would soon come and inform him and trust me I don't want his assistance seeing me outside him and Mia bedroom, he might tell Mark besides I don't want myself to get into any trouble so I immediately went downstairs to the second floor where my assistance told me.

When I got there I saw my Dad and mum sitting apart from each other.

That's unlike them, are they fighting or what?

I saw Morgana sitting down next to my Dad so I went to sit down next to my mum. After taking a sit I greeted my parents formally.

Rita: Morgana drop that phone you're using now!

Morgana was busy with her phone yeah.

Morgana: mum please just give me a minute, I'm texting a friend about a school project.

Rita: You can do that later! Put the phone down right now!

My mum raised her voice at her and that made Morgana put the phone down.

I then sigh.

Matt: Dad my assistance said you called for me so why?

Peter: you would know soon.

Matt: can I know now?

Peter: I said soon.

I rolled my eyes.

Shortly afterwards Mia and Mark came down to the second floor. Mia was on a shirt that was stopping on her thigh while her long blonde wavy hair was left down. damn I couldn't help it but to stare there.

I'm sure that was Mark shirt. I could see how her eyes were swell, no doubt she was crying so much.

Mark then put his arms around her taking her to a couch. Damn I hate seeing them together..

I shook my head in anger while I made a fist.

Mark made her take a sit next to him.

I saw her sniff twice.

Peter: Mia dear how are you?

Mia: I'm good...

Her voice sounded seized.

Peter: Are you sure? What happened to your voice?...

While my Dad was asking her questions I was still staring at her tigh, damn! It's like she's seducing me right now...I licked my lower lips staring at her..

Matt: damn.. I mumble.

My mother then notices what I was doing, she knew what Mia was wearing was giving me attention. Jeez my mother is so annoying! My mother then interrupted after Mia answered the next question from my Dad.

Mia: Yes sir..I'm okay..

Rita: Why are you wearing this Mia?!

She shouts.

Mia: Me?

Rita: Yes who else! You're dressing so indecent! This a meeting for Christ sake! It's not your bedroom.

Mark: mum can't you just let it be.

Rita: no I can't cause she's drawing attentions, there are men here. Mia go change your clothes.

Mia: no Mark it's fine I'll go change.

Peter: No Mia, there's no need. I just wanted the meeting to be quick. Later you could go change and yeah next time remember to wear something decent.

Mia: I'm so sorry Sir and next time I will.

I could see my mum staring daggers at Mia.

Peter: Good, now can you explain the reason for your swelled eyes?

Mia: umm...Sir there's no really need to worry, I'm fine.

Peter: okay if you say so dear. Have you and Mark concluded in the place you both would spend your honey moon together?.

Mia: I wanted Vancouver but it's too cold so I choose Paris.

Mark: are you sure you're okay with that babe?

Mia nodded her head.

Mia: Yes babe...I want us to go there.

Mark: Cool.

Peter: okay so Paris.

Rita: and how long are you both planning to go for your honey moon together?

Oh s**t I don't want them to go for their honey moon, that means I'll no longer see Mia's face.

Peter: How long?

Rita: Two weeks will be better.

Mia: Two weeks? Why two week? It's too short.

Rita rolled her eyes in disgust.

Peter: Then how long do you want?

Mia: two to three months please.

Rita: What! Two to three months! Who would handle the business! Firstly you kept Mark for a week and now you want to keep him for another two to three months.

Mark: well I agree.

Rita: Wow!.

Mark: Mother Matt could handle the business.

Rita: Matt? No he can't...you are the heir to the business! The business need you and not Matt.

I roll my eyes hardly like I even want to handle the family business.

Mark: I'm not saying he should take the business forever at least until when I'll be back that's what I'm saying.

Peter: no...I don't think that's a good idea, Matt can't handle the business.

You see, there won't let me. They think I'm bad luck and that I wouldn't lead the business to success.

Mia: But why can't he?

Rita: Mia it is best for you not to add your filthy mouth into our family conversation besides you are the one who caused this so just shut up.

Peter: Rita know how you speak to Mia besides she's part of the family as well, it's not like she's a stranger, Mia as far as you're present, you are free to to talk okay?

Mia: Okay sir.

Rita: Well I say Matt wouldn't be handling the business.

Do they that think I'm a failure?

Matt: I don't even want to handle the business! Okay! I'm okay with my career already, everyone already thinks of me as a failure so there's no need. I'm good at the sporting field so I'll focus on that.

I immediately stood up from the couch and left.

Mia p.o.v

I could tell Matt felt bad, maybe what he told me was the truth.

Why won't they not let Matt handle the business?. Isn't he not part of the family?

All these questions were wandering in my head.

Peter: I'll handle the business then.

Rita mumbled something under her breathe, I'm sure she was furious that her own husband was going to handle the family business.

Well it is what it is.

Peter: we have come to an end of this meeting, you all may dismiss.

Mark: Thanks Dad.

Rita: I have a question.

Peter: Ask right away.

Rita: I would want to know when my son and his wife would be going on their honey moon.

Peter: it's their decision.

Rita: Mark when do you want to go?

Mark: It's the decision of my wife.

Mia: oh and yes I don't want anyone to know now.

I said it while rolling my eyes at Rita.

Rita starts glaring at me.

Morgana: I'll be leaving now, bye Dad, bye mum.

Morgana left.

Peter: Rita can we go now.

Rita: Yes we may besides I'm disgusted by staying here.

Shortly afterwards Rita and her husband left leaving me and Mark.

Mark: You haven't eaten anything so why don't we go eat now.

Mia: Yes by the way I'm so hungry.

Mark got up while he pulls me up by my hands and as the two of us went to the dining table to eat our breakfast.

Matt p.o.v

I locked myself in my room all alone contemplating about all the 23 years I've lived.

It ain't fair, I've always lived a sad life with my family here.

I can't stay here any longer, I need a break from home with either of my best two girlfriends, I can make plans with Olivia to travel out.

I am currently at new York city and I think moving out to Dubia this time would be fun, I'be only been to Dubia three times in my life, the first time was when I was 11, second time 16 and third time 19 and now definitely this time at 23 I would want to move there with either Olivia or Sam.

I better move with Olivia to make her happy, I'm sure she must be sad now by caughting her off so by me asking her that I would love going on a vacation with her to Dubia she will be definitely be happy about that.

I brought out my phone from the pocket and dialed her number.

She picked up without hesitation, it's like she has been waiting for my call.

"On the phone".

Matt: Hey baby..

Olivia: Hey honey....( she sniffs) I've been waiting for you call...you ended the call before hearing what I wanted to say.

Matt: sorry about that...just that something came up.

Olivia sniffs again.

Olivia: Something....like what?

Matt: my Dad called for us.

Olivia: Okay babe...I wanted us to have plans but you said you were busy so it's fine. I'm just alone at my house.

Matt: okay..well I called to ask you for something..

Olivia: and what's that?

Matt: would you love to go on a vacation with me to Dubia?

Olivia: of course! Of course baby I would love to go on a vacation with you there.

Matt: Cool...

Olivia: Yeah..

Matt: okay then..I'll call you at night and then we will both discuss our plans.

Olivia: okay babe...love you.

Matt: same..bye.

I ended the call.

Shortly afterwards I heared a knock from my door, I wondered who it must be. People in tho house barely knock at my doors except from my assistance and the cleaners who needs to clean.

I then opened up the door to see who the person was.

I saw a blonde beauty standing next to my mother with a vacuum cleaner in front of her, she had blue ocean eyes and her hair was done a messy bun. She was wearing a long dress stopping at her feet. The outfit she was putting on was boring, I prefer girls wearing short things so I could see their true figure. The stranger's skin was white and smooth while her lips were also pink and full with a slender nose. She was a little bit short for me, not too short, she's like Mia's height...I'm tall so I like average height ladies cause I'm 6'5.

She's indeed beautiful, the thing that was just messing her up a little bit was the outfit, forget about the outfit, even though It was boring for me she was still looking beautiful as ever.

My mother caught me staring so much at her so she cleared her throat so loud.

Rita: This is your new cleaner of your room.

Oh my God! Did mum just say my new cleaner? Cool! So she's going to be coming here. I felt so happy knowing that.

Matt: Cleaner?

Rita: Yes Cleaner.

Matt: What happened to the former one?

Acting like I wasn't happy on hearing that the blonde beauty was going to be cleaning my room.

Rita: she has resigned cause she is pregnant so from now on this lady here would be your cleaner and you better keep your hands to yourself.

Mum only said that cause she caught me staring and she knows that any lady always fall for me easily.

Rita: is that taken?

Matt: Yes mother it is.

Rita: start now Rose.

Hmm...her name is Rose. Fascinating.

Rose: okay ma'am.

My mother then left.

I was still staring at her when my mother left, I didn't even realize I was on her way until she said what she said.

Rose: Excuse me Sir? I have to go in.

Her voice was beautiful as well, damn! She's perfect.

Matt: Sure you can.

I made way for her but trust me I didn't stop staring.

When she got into my room, I got into my room as well while closing the door. I could tell she wasn't good about it.

Rose: are you going to be here watching me clean?

Matt: I was just going to have a shower, by the way i'm Matt, nice to meet you.

I stretched forth my hands to her while she shook it with a smile.

Oh my God, her smile was adorable.

I smiled back.

Matt: I'll get going now, right your name is Rose?

Rose: Yes I'm Rose.

Matt: that's a beautiful name, it suits your pretty face even better.

She chuckles and blushes.

It's like she's shy.

When I was about to leave until she stopped me;

Rose: Wait!

I turned back to look at her, she hid her face bending her face to the floor.

She's so shy, no doubt.

Rose: Do you know where Mia is?

Matt: Mia? No...why?

Rose: nothing..just asking, it's just that she's an angel. I want to thank her for something.

Oh does that mean that time Mia was shouting at my mother she was just defending the new worker?..I need to know.

Matt: And what's that?

I said that coming close to her.

Rose: She defended me earlier today, she's a nice person.

Matt: Yes...she is..

I smile while biting my lower lips.

Matt: after you're done cleaning I could take you to her.

Rose: Thanks.

Matt: my pleasure.

I smile at her and she smiles back, shortly afterwards I left to the bathroom.

Mia's p.o.v

Thirty minutes later

While I was climbing the stairs to the 3rd floor I saw Rose coming out from Matt's room, my heart pounced cause I wondered what she was doing in there!

Only what I could hope for is her safety and that p*****t didn't try doing anything to her. I had to worry because I know how Matt is, for him trying to force himself on me the first day then why wouldn't he to to Rose...besides she's attractive.

I got more worried when I saw Matt coming out of the room a short while after Rose did.

Did anything happen in there? Why was the door even closed? Poor Rose.

Then I saw when Matt only came to give Rose the vacuum cleaner...I wondered what she was doing with it in Matt's room until I remembered when Rita was busy shouting that Rose would be a cleaner, after my mind was in little peace afterall I shouldn't be in full peace because of Rose coming to clean Matt room wouldn't still stop him from flirting around with her, he's capable of that besides that is his true nature.

I then started seeing them talking to each other, they couldn't see me cause I was in a far distance and the two of them were backing me.

Matt p.o.v

When I came out from the bathroom after putting on my fresh clothes I didn't see Rose in there, I was still hoping she would still be there, I needed to know when next she was coming next to clean my room. There is no way I'm going to miss an opportunity with her, I only want her for some while...maybe I can make her one of my girlfriends...no doubt I'm so attracted to that blonde beauty.

But though she's not more special to me than Mia, Mia's case is different...she would always be a part of me.

I saw the vacuum cleaner in my room, she can't be too far, I can still meet her and the most best part is that I can just use the vacuum cleaner as an excuse she forgot to meet her so it won't look like I'm desperate for her.

I quickly took the vacuum cleaner while leaving the room, she was already walking away from my room so I hurriedly went to her with the vacuum cleaner.

Matt: Hey Rose, you left this at my room.

Rose turned back to me.

Rose: oh my...I forgot, thanks so much.

Matt: No problem so anyways when next are you coming for cleaning.

Rose: according to your mother, cleaning your room is every week but tomorrow I'll be coming to clean your bathroom.

She's coming tomorrow...cool!

Matt: okay then, I'll be expecting you.

Rose nods while pulling the vacuum cleaner to her.

Matt: So can I get a hug?

Rose: okay...sure.

I pulled her in for a hug for few seconds.

Matt: How old are you by the way?

Rose: I'm 20.

Matt: wow! I'm 23.

She blushes and smiles at me.

Have she fallen for me? In just a short while?

Matt: okay I'll be leaving you now, see you later.

Rose: yeah but you said you were going to take me to Mia.

Matt: oh s**t! Yeah I remember, okay then let's go.

Mia's p.o.v.

When they wanted to turn to front to my direction I began going down the stairs again so it won't like I was spying on them...shit! They hugged each other.

I saw them walking to me and Mark's room, what do they need there? Should I just go to them.

Yes I think I should, maybe she wants to tell me something.

So I went up the stairs to the 3rd floor going to my room where they were standing by the door.

Matt: she's here..

Mia: is there any problem?

Acting so Innocent.

Matt: she wanted to see you.

Matt started gazing at me licking his lower lips, why won't he when I'm still on Mark's shirt.

Rose: Hey boss..

Mia: No dear call me Mia.

Rose: hello Mia.

Mia: Yes hiii.

Rose: I just wanted to thank you for defending me in front of your mother in law.

Mia: it's okay...don't forget anytime you need help I'll always be at your service.

Rose smiles at me.

Rose: Thanks...no one have ever stood for me the way you did, she's so cruel anyways I say a big thank you Mia.

Mia: Anytime.

Rose: Ooops! I'm so sorry Matt for saying all these in your front.

Matt: I have no problem at all Rose, My mother does deserve it. She's so cruel and I know that, she's wrong and there's no way I can support her for that.

Rose: Wow, guys like you are rare...

I notice them staring at each other with Rose blushing at him.

What the hell is going on with them and why is Rose blushing this much at him, I had to break the silent stare so I cleared my throat loud.

Mia: I'll excuse you two then. bye and have a good day. i said feeling awkward.

Matt: wait Mia, I wanted to ask you for something.

I roll my eyes at him and sigh.

Mia: what is it?

Matt: not here.

Rose: I get it I'll excuse you two.

I could tell she felt bad, her face shows it all. She felt so because Matt didn't want to mention anything in her presence.

Mia: No Rose you could stay here, it's not that deep.

I only said that so that Matt couldn't lay his hands on me, when I looked at Matt face after saying that, he wasn't feeling good at all.

Rose: no...I really don't think so besides I have a lot of work to do.

Mia: okay...Matt you can tell me later, I have to go now.

Matt: not later Mia, now.

Mia: I said later. I sterned my voice.

Shortly afterwards I saw how Rose became sad and left.

Mia: What!

I shout.

Matt:Why do you always have to be rude, why can't you be nice to me for once in your life to me.

Mia: that's cause you don't deserve it!

Matt: when are you leaving to Paris?

Mia: I don't want anyone to know about it, it's between me and my husband.

He rolls his eyes.

Matt: just let me know.

He said that while pulling me close to him while wrapping one of his arms around my waist.

Mia: why do you always have to touch me! Can't you do without grabbing me close to you. I pushed him away from me.

Matt: I can't...

He moves me closer to the wall.

Matt: When do you intend on traveling, with Mark?

I roll my eyes.

Mia: none of your business, why can't you do without minding your business for once in your life.

Matt: I can't.

Mia: why?

Matt: Cause you are in my business.

He smirks at me.

Mia: let go.

Matt: Nah...nice outfit.

When he was wrapping his arms around my waist, I then noticed my under wear started showing....oh jeez.

Matt: You look sexy, you're God damn sexy you know...

He licks his lower lips.

My breathing then got heavier when he lifts me up with my legs wrapped around his waist and his hands under my buttocks.

Matt: What are you doing Matt, stop Matt.

Matt: Nah..

He pins me to the wall.

Matt: you have no idea how you make me feel, I'm so crazy about you, it's like I'm obsessed. I'll do anything for you Mia.

Mia: I don't believe any word that come out from your mouth! You're so in appropriate! Leave me alone!

Matt: you think I'm lying? I'm crazy about you for real.

Mia: I don't know you Matt, all I know is that you're a betrayer, an inappropriate person and a molester, now let go.

Matt: Shhh..don't say that, I'm not Mia.

I then start to slap my hands on his face so he could let me down.

Matt: Stop Mia.

Mia: Let me down you ass hole!!!

I continued slapping my hands on his face with all the strength until he finally let me down.

When he let me down I immediately ran to my room where I locked myself in there.
