Adhara and Laura exchanged puzzled glances as soon as Joanna left the sitting room.

Just then Bacon flew into the sitting room through the window. It flapped its wings as it flew around the huge sitting room.

"What the hell did it ask the evil bird to show us?" Laura muttered, her piercing glares directed at the blackbird hovering around them.

"Also, it's merely a bird. Can I understand what she said…," Laura didn't complete her words when a transparent screen that looked like a projector appeared on the wall?

In shock, Adhara and Laura's eyes scrutinized the room in search of whoever was controlling the screen.

Their mouths dropped open in awe when they noticed that the blue flames emitting from Bacon's eyes were what formed the screen on the wall.

[I had thought that this was just an evil bird she picked up from wherever she came from but I guess there is more to the bird that meets the eyes… It's as mysterious as the evil girl…]

Laura's thoughts got disrupted by the video that appeared on the blue screen on the wall, just beside the television.

"Besides, one cannot do away with his or her mate like that. One's mate is supposed to last for a lifetime...,"

"Your father wasn't my mate but aren't we married with kids now?" Adhara shouted as she threw Laura's hand away in anger.

Adhara's legs weakened the moment she saw the scene playing on the screen.

"Turn it off," Adhara shouted knowing too well the next words that will come.

She charged to the wall and started hitting it with hopes of making the video stop.

Even with all the hitting, the video playing on the screen didn't stop.

"Just to be in this household I killed my mate. If you don't get your act together then I will be forced to put an end to your madness with his death".

Listening to Adhara's yells made an evil smirk appear on the face of the lady walking to her room.

Reaching her room there stood Anthony. Joanna was a bit taken aback when she saw her little brother looking at her in a way he had never done.

Unlike his usual twinkling eyeballs, she could read fear in those innocent eyeballs of his.

"Little rice ball, what are you still doing at home? Weren't you supposed to be in school long ago," Joanna asked as she walked toward him.

She was dumbfounded to see him move two steps backwards.

Due to her anger, she had forgotten to make sure that Anthony wasn't around.

Even though she had found out he was around, she would have made sure that whatever happened was blocked from him just like she has been doing.

She let her anger blind her thereby making her overlook such an important detail.

"You heard everything right?" Joanna tried to confirm her guess.

She didn't try to walk further toward him seeing that he was scared of her.

"Big Sister, will you really harm Mum and Sister Laura as you had said?" Anthony asked after two minutes of silence.

"Will you kill them…,"

"What are you saying Little rice ball," Joanna cut in and took a step forward momentarily forgetting that Anthony was still afraid of her.

Just like earlier he still walked a step backwards.

Seeing how he wouldn't even let her come close to him made Joanna realize that things were more serious than she thought.

She tried to come up with what to say and do to make him feel safe with her once again.

"I was just trying to scare them Little rice ball. You don't need to take what I said to heart…,"

"But…,"

"Or does Big Sister look that cruel to you?" Joanna questioned faking a pitiful expression.

"Does Big Sister resemble someone who can kill a person…,"

"Of course not," Anthony said firmly. He took the initiative to close the gap between them.

"Big Sister is the kindest person in the world," Anthony said smiling.

Joanna bent and embraced him. She pats his hair lovingly.

[Tony, I am so sorry I have to lie to you. Your Big Sister standing right here is not the one you knew in the past. I have been through a life-changing event which has made me hardhearted. Never had I imagined that I would be what I am today. I was pushed into being who I am today so you can't blame me for being heartless]

A painful smile appeared on Joanna's face as she kept on caressing Anthony's back.

After two minutes of hugging, Joanna let go of Anthony.

"Little rice ball, go and meet Nanny Susan to get you prepared for school…,"

"But you promised to take me to school last time but you didn't. And that's why I was waiting for you to send me to school today," Anthony said.

"Did I…," Joanna paused what she wanted to say when she recalled that she really promised to send him to school.

On the day she was supposed to take him to school she was in the forest having a good time with Kayden.

Just like last night she had also forgotten that she had made a promise to her little brother.

"Big Sister is running late for class so I can't send you to school today but I promise to send you to school next time," Joanna promised. She ruffled his well-styled hair.

"But…,"

"It's a promise and I won't break it this time. To make it up to you for last time I will also take you out on a date on my off day," Joanna said.

"Really?" Anthony asked. His eyes lit up in excitement.

"Yeah, so get ready and go to school. We will talk more about it when I return from campus," Joanna assured him with a smile.

"Ok, Big Sister. I will go and change into my uniform now," Anthony said. He waved at Joanna before he dashed to get ready for school.

Joanna stared at him until he was out of sight. She hastened into her room and hurriedly got prepared for her class.

She didn't waste time searching for clothes, she picked whatever clothes she laid her hands on.

Because she was late, she didn't even bother to apply makeup on her face.

She hurried downstairs after she was done.

Joanna composed herself when she reached the stairs.

"So what did you think about my surprise? Have you made up your mind on what to do?" Joanna asked as she descended the stairs.
