EVERYTHING
Chapter 1
Early in the morning, Rosalyn was still sleeping when she heard the shout of her aunt calling out to her to wake up, but she did not answer but instead continued her beauty sleep
After about 30 minutes, she sluggishly stood up and walked into the washroom. She did her stuff and came out of her room
“Good morning aunt”she greeted her aunt and sat down to eat
“morning dear, how was your night ”ophelia replied
“it's was awesome and yours ”Rosalyn said with the most amazing smile ever
“Rosalyn ?”
“yes aunt ”
“next week is your birthday. Do you have anything in mind?”
Oh, I forgot about that. I am clocking 20 on the 16th of December. Seriously, I don't have anything in mind because I am not the party type
“hmm nah I don't have anything in mind. I will just do it the usual way ” I told her
“as expected, I already know you would say this” Aunt ophelia said
Of course she's always complaining about me being boring in a conversation, sometimes I too get bored of myself because I talk less that's me for you I really do jot have the strength to talk instead I act let's just say my actions speaks louder than my voice, i was still swimming in my pool of thought when my phone started chiming when I saw the caller ID I knew what is going to happen next
“hey birthday girl!!!!!“ Avery screamed
”Don't tell me you are still sleeping by this time lazy ass“ Ria backed her up
These are my best friends Avery and I are childhood friends we met Ria in our first year in college and we became the three beauty birds according to Ria, but Avery and I have not been to Ria's place before she doesn't allow us to accompany her home or come for sleepover it's either my house or Avery place we are now used to it tho. After what seemed like forever, I heard another shout from Avery. Gosh, this girl is so loud
”Cupcakeare you there don't tell me you are dead,“ Avery exclaimed
”hey avie, can you calm down? You are too loud“ Ria said. Thank God she helped me today
”hey Riri don't start today can't you see it's taking forever for her to speak up,wait don't tell me it's her ghost that answered this call“ Avery said Of course as a lover of fiction novels why won't she say awful things.
”yes I was dead. I just woke up dummy“ I finally spoke
”Finally our introvert spoke“ Ria said, and we all started laughing
” Cupcake, do you have plans for your birthday“ Avery said
”No I don't. I will just do the usual, you know me, am not he party type. I don't have strength for that“ I replied
”what thy hell just happen is it just me or Riri are you there?“ Avery said
”what is that avie“ I asked her
” For the first time in history, you finally made a long statement “Ria
said, and I sigh these girls
”did you hit your head on something “
Avery said
”can you guys stop picking on me? It's annoying “ I said lazily
”indeed this is a miracle“ Ria said
”yes of course, this calls for celebration “ Avery exclaimed
” avie, can you shut your hole of a mouth wanna give me an ear infection?“Ria said
Ria knows how to fight she's so good at fighting she can beat up 10 men with the snap of her finger but she's cool and doesn't talk much she hate noise,Avery on the other hand loves to party,buy latest shoe and bag she's our slay queen.Ria love dressing like a guy people often mistake her for a guy someone once fell in love with her thinking she was a boy it's crazy right?
”alright girls I will hang up now. I feel tired. i feel like sleeping “ I told them
”as usual lazy fellow “ Ria said
”let's meet up tomorrow at our usual spot. I am so bored“ Avery said she's an only child she always complains about being bored
”okay “Ria and I said in unison. we said our goodbye and hung up
I looked around the dining room for Aunt ophelia, but she's not in the room
Guess she's getting ready for work , I cleaned the table do the dishes and went to my room I took out my laptop and started writing my novel,yes i love writing after an hour decided to sleep and I heard a knock on my door and it's opened
”Rosalyn love am going to work. See you later and make sure you eat your lunch. I hope you stop skipping meals “ she complained
”Okay aunt I will take care of yourself self and am also looking forward to the day you allow me to know where you work“ I said to her, and as usual, I knew her response
”common just focus on your studies and leave the work for auntie“ she replied and kissed my temple
” Okay, bye aunt, come back soon “ I said
and lay on my bed. When I woke up, it was already 5 pm in the evening. I took my phone and saw 5 missed calls from Jason
Jason is my boyfriend we have been dating for 2 years now and we are he is in his final year, jason is 23 years old he hang out with me and my friends sometimes but Ria dislike him for the reason best know to her according to Jason they attended the same school back then and they were pretty close all of a sudden they turned enemies because of a guy
I will call him later. I need to make food for my aunt before she comes back,she's not in the night shift today. I feel so weak but I have to cook my hobbies are cooking, reading books,writing novels and baking
I was so engrossed in my thoughts when I heard the doorbell, who could that be am not expecting anyone. I open the door and behold the almighty Jason came rushing inside and asking millions of questions in one go
” My love, are you?“
”Are you hurt“
” I was calling you ,why didn't you take my calls“
”s**t I you got me worried “
”I thought something bad happened to you“ he rants, breathing hard
” Hey Jason, calm down. I am fine“ I said
” I was sleeping. I woke up and saw your missed calls“ I again said
”sorry I was going to call you back when I finished cooking“ I said, and he was staring at me blanting after a while he was leaning closer for a kiss
” Hey, wait! I told you,am not ready for anything intimate, right?“ I asked him with my heart beating like party drum
”come on, babe, it's just a harmless kiss. Why are you so… hump, alright whatever “ he said and sat down on the couch
”Hey babe, I clearly told you before we started dating that until I am ready, no trespassing, so what now?“ I said," I already passed. Honestly, I hate people going back to their words
”Oh gosh you not a f*****g kid anymore you will be 20 soon for crying out loud Rosalyn“ he called my name he does that when he's mad at me

right now we are on the chase for someone indebted to us for the past 15 years still we haven't heard from him so I asked my men to track him down
“Boss we got an information that Mr Stewart is dead” Moses my right hand man and best friend said
“hmmm” I growled
“ he died 10 years ago in a car crash with his wife” he said
“And?”
“ luckily the only survival was their 10 years old daughter who is currently living with her aunt” he said and drop the file in his hand
“is that all you have got?“ I asked him and closed my eyes
” Boss we—“
” f*****g find more useful information before tomorrow “ I said and slammed my hands on the table making everyone one around the hall to knee down
” sorry boss on it right away “ he said
I walked passed them and turn again
” And I need every f*****g information about that family especially….. the survived b***h . Understood?“ I asked with a thunderous voice
” yes boss!“ they replied in unison
With that I walked out of the hall to my sister chamber when I saw her maiden
” Master“ she called and bow
” where is she“ I asked
”Master she left this morning “ she said still bowing
” To where“
” she said she has something to do ,she didn't say anything and left Master “ she said already shaking
” she really testing my patience“
I turn to Moses
” Bring her to me when she returns “ I told him
”noted boss“ he replied
That's my kid sister the only person that can question. Me and overstep her boundaries. I allowed her to do whatever she wanted to do because it's my mother's last wish before she died
Thanks to my ruthless father
He left her when she was in labor, and there was no one around. She gave birth alone and was at the point of dying when I came back from school
« Flashback «
” Mom“ I called her, not believing what I was seeing
” Dee“ she called softly
” Mom, what happened to you“
”Take care of her”she said, pointing her hand
I followed her direction and saw a tiny baby on the ground covered with blood, and the unbiblical cord was still intact. i was scared because I didn't know what to do in a situation like this
“she's now your responsibility. Don't let her make the mistake. I made lycan watch her closely and care for her needs” my mother said. I could barely hear her.
“okay mom what about you.. let's get you clean , I am coming back” I said and ran off and came back with my nanny she gasped and started crying. I went to my mom, and she smiled, looking at me
“ Mom ?“I called, but there was no response damn she's gone
”Aunt Clara“
” Yes, young Master“
”what is she doing here?“
” Young Master I don't know. I just came back from the market “ she said now, carrying the baby who would not stop crying
” she was in her room before I left for school. How come she's now in the basement ?“
” Young Master I don't kn—“
” you don't f*****g know ?“ I yelled and she bow her head
”And where is her husband?why did he leave her side today of all day ?“ I asked
”Master left not quite long “ she said and I told her to leave and take care of the crying baby
”Mom why did you leave me alone why“ I said already crying have never cried but right now I was beyond broken I closed her eyes and some guards came in and took her away
What was she doing in the basement I came back and was looking for my drawing board when I saw my dog barking then it started running to the basement I followed him there and saw this s**t
It's been 2 days now and my dad did not come back home even after he heard about my mother's death and my younger baby sister he felt unconcerned ..gosh I hate that man
