Forgotten

26

You ever sit there and watch someone just lie to your face and think...WOW! You should win an Oscar for that?

And the funny this is everyone sitting at this table believes what she is saying and is looking at her sympathetically.

Well everyone except for my family off course.

I'm just trying really hard not to bust out laughing. I swear if I didn't know who she was I would have been crying too by now.

"I just couldn't handle it anymore so I ran and was found by a man who took care of me like I was his own. I later got a job as a waitress at a cafe and that's how I met Elijah" she finished with a sniff and wiped her tears away.

I look around the table to see the women with tears streaming down their faces and the men with sad looks.

"Excuse me" she says and gets up and walks towards the washroom while avoiding eye contact with me.

Pop off I guess

"You see what you did" Ava says with a glare and a sniff but I roll my eyes at her dumbness.

She has on a pink dress with a tiara and silver earrings with a matching necklace.

"Cake anyone?" I ask with a smirk ignoring her and every glare I'm getting from the rest and Max cheers at the mention of cake and puts the phone down.

I see Rosa walking back and Elijah gets up to meet her. They exchange a few words and walk back to us and she still avoids eye contact with me making me smirk inwardly.

Sebastian gets up and addresses everyone. He gives a speech about the importance of family and blah blah blah. He's about the end his speech when he calls Ava to the front.

After they make a toast Ava walks up to me and pulls me into a hug.

"Watch your back little sister. We wouldn't want you to die....yet" she whispers in my ear before pulling away.

I chuckle at her little attempt to intimidate me but don't say anything.

We sit and the party continues. Most going back to dancing and some talking with each other and others eating cake.

The party goes on for a couple more hours until Sebastian gives a speech again and the party comes to a end.

We drive to the Smith manor and when we get there I nod at mom who nods back and takes Max to the car.

Max may be smart for his age and he may know some stuff that he isn't supposed to but he doesn't know what happened to me and I intend to keep it that way.

"When I was ten my twin sister told a lie and it ended up with me being sent to a boarding school in Spain" I begin to speak when we all take a seat and look right into Rosa's eyes and they all stop what they are doing to listen to me.

"I woke up and met the man who was in charge of the school. Well it's not really a school but I guess the family didn't know that. The man took a liking in me and said he would make me his queen but me being the little badass that I am stood up for myself and it ended up with me being tortured and starved"

I pause and look around and I'm met with sad and guilty eyes looking back at me.

How pathetic.

"His reason for torturing me being 'I was not submissive enough'. He said he was going to turn me into an obedient wife. But I had brothers who taught me not to let people walk over me so I fought back and I was beating each time and occasionally r*ped too. Imagine a ten year old having to go through that. I sometimes wonder how I'm still alive"

It's funny how they now look sad and guilty but when I begged them to not send me away they didn't even bat an eye.

"But there was this woman"

I see her eyes widen at my statement and she visibly gulps.

"I should probably go" she gets up to leave but is stopped by two of my men. She turns around and looks at me with wide and pleading eyes which I ignore and my men force her to sit back down.

"She said she would help me escape and me being the naive little girl that I was believed her. She told me her name was Rosa and she seemed so nice and sometimes even brought me food so I believed her. She pretended to help me and I got caught by one of the men. I was brought back and was tortured even worse than before while the woman stood there and laughed at me"

Henry hands me a fully loaded gun and smirks in my direction and I nod at him.

"I finally managed to escape on my own and got a better life. For the first time in forever I had a family. I had people who truly cared about me. But what I didn't expect was to find out that the woman who seems to be in all my nightmares would be dating my brother"

I bring the gun out and point it at her ignoring the gasp from everyone around the table. Dad just sits there unbothered. Elijah puts a protective hand in front of her and glares at me.

"Eureka what are you doing? Put the gun down"

I ignore him and still point the gun at her. She shakes her head lightly at me and with pleading eyes try to get me to stop but I just smirk In her direction.

"Eureka she is pregnant. Stop it this instant" Sebastian says with fear evident in his tone. I look around to see everyone else with their gun pointed at me but I shake my head and laugh.

"Pregnant you say?"

This is even way better than I imagined it to be

"Yes! Eureka please" Elijah says with a pleading tone.

Sorry not sorry

"Oh but dear brother that baby isn't yours"
