Alesha's P.O.V***
As soon as I entered my room I sat down on the sofa next to my bed and started silently crying out of frustration.
I clearly understood my elder brothers threats throughout their >.
They were telling me to get ready for their promise to destroy me physically and by doing so, emotionally too.
But of course Father and my mom didn't got it..
They were just seeing pure intentions coming from my brothers.
I could have also thought so if they didn't came to my school few weeks ago, forced me to suck one of them c**k and nearly raped me.
And after that with the help of Mrs. Duboeuf we set some cameras to trap them if ever they come again, but they are too wise to fall for that I guess. As they never tried it again, taking a low profile til now..
The way they punctuated their prayer words, emphasising some key words as prepare properly or Gods promise (talking about the way Boys &girls were seeing or calling the trio : Gods. The prayer flow was not "GOD'S promise" as the parents thought) or accept and enjoy Gods favor, all those words spoke a tone.
They were torturing me mentally.
Not long after I ran in, I heard 02knocks at my door and without waiting for my answer the person turned the handle and entered.
I thought it would be Father but no, it was mum. My most loved & precious one.
She was looking worried and sad.
I couldn't allow myself to see her like that. So I stopped crying and wiped my tears away.
- "Come here baby.." She softly said while extending her arms for me to come in. Without hesitation I came in and hug her tightly. I felt comfort as she stroke my back. I was filled with peace firmly hold inside my mother's embrace...
"It's okay my lil baby, everything will be okay. You are just one step from success and soon you won't have to face your brothers anymore..." despite her soft whispers, I was startled by her words and backed from her embrace.
Did she know? My heart was racing as I stared straight into her soft dark eyes...
- "Wh..what do you m..ean mum ?" I stuttered, afraid of what she may say
- "Ooohh Ale I am maybe dumb or non instructed but I am not blind..." she said, making my heart race even faster.
"I have seen the look of those boys on you when your Father is not around. It's true I am an old woman but I have been young before so I can recognise lust in a man's stare..."
- "mum..." I wanted to stop her and deny all her guesses but she didn't allowed it and shocked me with her next phrase.
- "Baby I can't blame them.
They are men. And you are an outstandingly wonderfully beautiful woman.
Plus you are brilliant, smart, loving, caring and respectful.
Tell me what sound man won't fall for that.
You are not born from the same bosom as the ANDERSONS, yet you are still a virgin at almost 18. That implies they at least tried to keep their urges all these years, they respected you and allowed you to grow before showing their interest."
With that words I internally exhale as I am sure she doesn't know what happened 5years ago, how they abused me and the reason why Father sent Luke &James for one year out of home.
"If Mr. ANDERSON didn't adopted you officially, any of them could have ask your hand and marry you" and I winced at that, disgusted at the mere thought.
"So I am not appraising their attitude towards you but I can't blame them from falling for the exceptional woman you have become."
Then she hold both my cheeks in her palms and said, staring lovingly deep inside my eyes...
"Please. Promise me you'll do whatever it takes to respect all member of this family at least for the seek of Mr. ANDERSON who really cares for you as a Father. You know he will always protect you and assure you a good future. That is all I need for you and pray for every single day."
She was now silently crying.
I was heart broken to see her so desperate for my well-being.
So many times Father came to me to settle things between my brothers and I but I was always reluctant, knowing they were not being sincere and I couldn't tell him without any proof. So I was just keeping it a bit cold.
But seeing my mother like this, No!
She has already suffered so much for losing the love of her life, and sustainer of the family.
She doesn't deserve more pain. No one does.
I am all she has left on earth. So I wiped away her painful tears, reassuringly smiled at her and hugged her more tightly this time.
- "I promise mum. I will do all it takes."
After that evening, time passed quickly.
The exams took place and the whole household gave me a helping hand so that everything goes well.
Had it not been the trap that I survived in the gloomy corridors of the school, I would have really believed that my brothers really considered me as their sister and had no bad ulterior motives.
In one click the exams were taken and the week after the results were out ...
