The following morning, I got up in a haste, turned, and took sight of Alvin sleeping soundly beside me.
My intense gaze must have triggered his six senses, "you're staring, miss danger?".
He turned around unlocking his eyes sight.
So I said, "good morning, Mr arrogant, and goodbye".
I turned to chance to leave, Alvin takes my hand back and pinned me to the bed.
He hopped on top and we both had our eyes locked for a while until a knobj on the door drove us apart...
I wore my nightwear and opened the door, "good morning aunt!!" I said.
Aunt smiled and said, "can you come downstairs, I'll like to tell you something before going".
"Tell me what?", Curiosity grappling on my face, she ignored my question and gestured I come down after being done with my chores.
Thereafter, I left down and met her holding her suitcases, she smiles, walked over, and hugged me.
"Lisa!! I'm sorry but I'll have to return to my family". ( She says
"Your family, what happened, aren't you happy staying with me, I don't want you to leave".. ( I got her away, dragging my feet back, Alvin walked in and saw what was going on)
"Aunt, are you leaving". He joins in the conversation.
She takes a quick nod to his question and replies wearing a weak smile
"Yes my son, I'm leaving but it's for a while, I'll come back and visit and besides, as long as you're here, Lisa is and will be saved, your both destined for each other".
Aunt leaving got me emotional, I ran forward and hugged her tightly, she smiles and Alvin watched from behind.
"Shall we?*.
Aunt held my hands as we walked to her car packed outside, she tugged my hair behind my ears, veered her eyes to Alvin watching, and said.
"Lisa, you're really lucky to have Alvin in your life, I know what happened came as a shock to you but don't worry, everything will eventually fall into place, and yes!! Please go bring your mom home okay, she's stayed there enough".
(She gets into the car as it drives away).
I had a lot to think about and with everything going on, I forgot about mom, she's going to rain enough curses on me.
( My feet ambled inside).
10:00 am.
Following up with aunt said, I left to the place I kept mom, and deep down I hoped she lets me explain before trying to kill me.
( MENTAL HOSPITAL)
I got there and the nurse I kept to take care of mom, walked me inside her room.
Mom turned around at the sound of the door unlocking, and seeing me there got her angry.
"Lisa, what are you doing here?".
( She Implored golfing a huge grudge)
The nurse gave us time to talk and I answered her question, "good morning mom, I came to see you and to take you home".
"To take me home, why!! This is my new home now!!". ( Mom kept the same face answering back)
So I said, "mom, I know you must be angry with me, and I do have a lot of explaining to do but you gave me no choice, I had no choice, Bryan was after my life, and in other to save you, I had to send you to a mental hospital, in pretense".
( She clapped the minute I finished talking)
"Wow, Lisa the best daughter of the year, do you think I'm foolish, don't you dare lie to me, you failed your family and most importantly, you couldn't even save your sister from dying".??
(Eyes locked as the chapter ends)
Once again, mom rained curses on me, I pulled my feet backward in disbelief and fell my back on the wall.
I pulled down holding my ears, she kept on yapping until I felt a hand placed on my shoulders, lifting my head.
"Mom,"
Mom smiles and surprisingly hugged me, I had no idea what was going on and why she hugged, we later pulled apart and she proceeds to talk again.
"I'm sorry for my harsh words Lisa and yes, I was aware of what was going on, Alvin and your aunt told me everything!! I just had to pretend in other to fool you into thinking I was mad at you!! Sorry baby".
( Smiles)
I wasn't expecting mom to say that, and it would mean, Alvin was also pretending to fight with mom and the hospital and at home, urgh!! I'm going to kill him today, you all should get ready for a funeral.
And speaking of the devil, he walked In wearing a smile on, mom turned around and I did as well folding my eyes.
"Hello Lisa, why the look?". He takes a new turn and hides behind mom, who kept on laughing at the scene.
"You?". I latched and tried to get a hold of him, we both ran around the room and while aiming to get a hold of him, I tripped, and we both fall to the ground.
Our eyes locked and we forgot that mom stood at watched us, "hmm!! Hope I ain't interrupting anything?".
Mom said, Alvin pulled me up from the ground and stylishly left the room, he says he wanted to speak with the doctor, but I knew mom's words got him a little shy.
( Smiles)
Mom kinda noticed my thoughts, she placed her hands on my shoulders, turning me back to her.
"Wow, I can see you've fallen madly in love with him.".
She says.
"Really!! How can you tell?" I smiled and she goes, rolling her eyes at my comment, not quite long, Alvin returned and we left home.
On our way home, we had a little hookup on the way, it felt something was wrong and while we waited for the car to start, my eyes wandered off and took notice of a lady that look exactly like my sister.
"Tori!!"
I left Alvin and mom look confused, they ran to me and gets surprised at the same thing.
"My dear is that you?".
Mom couldn't control herself she pulled her in for a hug.
The lady weaves her away and said, "I'm sorry,  I am not your dear and not also Tori, you're mistaking me for someone else".
"Excuse me?".
I couldn't understand what she said, is this not my sister, or is she just acting silly.
"I'm sorry not your sister."
She turned around leaving, all of a sudden slumped to the ground.
"Tori?".
Out of fear we got her home and invited the doctor, he took a quick check-up and told on she was okay, and now the question is this my sister.
I sat next to her waiting for her to regain consciousness, and a few hours later, her eyes locked and she gets up doming a terrified look on her countenance.
"Who're you?".  She Implored.
Mom and Alvinggot into the room and she turned to see them as well, mom tried to take a step closer but gets called back by her word.
"Don't you dare woman, who the hell are you guys, I don't know you"?
( Chapter ends as she waits for an explanation)
QUESTION OF THE DAY.
The lady Lisa took home, is she her sister? Or is Bryan playing his last card by using the one thing she loves so much?
Her sister.
Lastly, if Tori's alive, where is she then?".
