Chapter 3: 'I wish I could see you again but I guess I could only see you if I remove all of these dirt.'
Back at the Key Riff Academy.
Lianna stood at the blackboard for a while without moving when she heard Andrew talk. She furrowed her brows when Andrew's voice suddenly disappeared.
She looked back to see if someone is at the door but there's no one. She just shrug her shoulders and resumed cleaning. Once she's finished she gathered her things and put them in her locker. Once she's done she checked their classroom once more before going out.
Since a lot of students had already left home the corridor is student free. She walked down the stairs leisurely. As usual not a shadow of students could be seen at the campus. When she arrived at their school gate a black maybach parked in front her.
The driver's door opened and middle aged man in a suit came down and jogged in front of her. He bowed at her and opened the car door. He smiled at her while stretching his hands inside.
Lianna then went in and once the door is closed her shoulders dropped and her back straighten up. She sighed and closed her eyes.
Another day passed and another day was wasted.
When they arrived home the middle aged man came out again and opened the door for Lianna. She stepped out and looked at the big house in front of her and went in.
"Welcome back Young Miss."
The house butler came and greeted her. She just smiled at him and took a stride towards her room. The butler remained in his spot until he couldn't hear her steady steps anymore.
Lianna closed the door and locked it. She then sat infront of the mirror and look at herself. She stared at herself. She looked so ugly and that once you have taken a look at her you woudn't want to take a second look again.
She had done everything she could to hide everything but her eyes cannot hide what she's feeling. It was filled with sorrow and grief.
She took a cotton ball and damped it in a make up remover then she started cleaning her face. She removed everything that she had plastered in her face this morning and took a bath.
The floor was immediately dyed in brown when she opened the shower. Everything that was clinging in her skin was washed away and a her fair white skin glowed like a pearl that was freshly discovered inside a clamp.
She then brushed her teeth and went out of the shower. She changed into a pair of clean clothes and combed her hair. When she's done she once again looked at herself in the mirror.
The girl in the mirror was far from the one she had seen a while ago. Now she's looking at a girl who seemed to had have came out from a painting. Her fine straight hair cascaded at her shoulders like a waterfall and her cheeks are pinkish because of the hot shower she had taken earlier.
Her brows furrowed and her doll like eyes became sadder.
"Sis.."
Her pinkish lips trembled and formed into a bitter smile. 'I wish I could see you again but I guess I could only see you if I remove all of these dirt.'
She held up her arms and touched her reflection.
She bit her lower lip and closed her eyes to suppress her tears. 'Stop... please..'
No matter how much she would want her tears to stop they would always find a way to escape from her eyes. She couldn't stop them as always so she just let it go until she was satisfied.
...
At the Woodville.
The maids are trembling in fear looking at the two doors where their Young Masters reside. It's been six hours since they didn't came out from their own rooms.
The dinner is left untouched and already cold at the table but they wouldn't still come out. The maids tried to ask them to come down and eat but they were frightened when they couldn't get any response from both of them.
'What's happening? Usually the First Young Master would always come down without being called and this is the first time he didn't came out. The Second Young Master would always be late for a second after the First Young Master comes out but now he's also not coming down.'
Soon Mrs. Tugade came home and she became confused when the two brothers aren't out yet.
Usually Grey and Andrew would be at the living room after they eat to relax. Grey would be reading a book while Andrew was watching TV.
The maids immediately formed a row to welcome the Madam as a form of courtesy.
"Where's Grey and Andrew?"
The maids shuddered when they heard their Madam's question. They shot a meaningful look at each other. No one wanted to answer her because they could feel that she's exhausted.
One wrong word and they might get fired. Mrs. Tugade knitted her brows when no one answered her question. 'Something's not right.'
"Shema where are they?"
The maid shuddered when she heard her name. All the maids turned their heads in her direction. Shema could feel their eyes on her so she knew that their future depends on how she choose her words.
Shema bit her lower lip and clenched her uniform. Of all the maids standing in a row in front of their Madam she was the most unfortunate one.
"They're at their room Madam."
Shema made her tone as pleasing to the ears as possible. Her reply was true but she felt like she's saying a lie because of the way their Madam look at her.
All the maids had their heads down and they felt like they are being roasted alive. They are afraid to meet their Madam's eyes.
Mrs. Tugade felt like her stress is increasing by what's happening. She pinched her glabella and walked towards Grey's room.
She knocked twice but no one answered her so she tried to open the door herself but it was locked. Her frown deepened and she shot the maids downstairs a look and told Shema to get the spare room keys.
Shema quickly ran to get them and gave it to their Madam. Mrs. Tugade then opened the door and once she stepped inside the darkness welcomed her. She switched on the lights and her eyes directly landed on Grey's bed where he was laying.
Mrs. Tugade's heels made a clicking sound when she walked towards him. Just as she was about to call his name her eyes widened when she saw his face.
