My plan is working.

1084 Words
Lerato's POV Oh, my plan worked perfectly. It took some confining to get Kagiso to work with me as he was feeling sorry for that b***h! I am glad everyone thinks it is Anna who planned all of this! She is such a pushover! She fell for the trap that Kagiso and I set up for her. I know Kagiso does not like that it was Anna we had to set up, but I convinced him that we need to be together, and everyone knows Anna always loved Chalie and will only believe it is Anna and no one else. I wish my parents would stop bugging me about Charlie. I am not going to take him back. He's boring. He does not have an adventurous bone in his body. I cannot wait to go to Europe with Kagiso. I cannot wait to start my new life with Kagiso. We have decided that if we like it in Europe, we will stay there, just not in Italy, as I do not want to run into Charlie. I am sure Kagiso also does not want to see him ever again. Kagiso is the love of my life, and I can not wait for our new adventure to start. I am sitting in my room pretending to be very upset. I have begun packing my bags, as I know my father will let me go to Europe. I get everything I want because I am my daddy's little angel. I am glad the whole night is over, and everybody believes me. There is a knock on my door, and it opens slowly. I pretend to cry as I lie with my face on the pillow. "Oh, my poor baby girl. I wish I could take the pain away. Sometimes, life is hard, and we must face the bad and the good. I do not want you to cry anymore. All I'm asking of you is not to make rush decisions. I know you are very angry with Charlie at the moment. However, I do not believe it is his mistake. I think Anna planned all of this. She always wanted him, and she wanted you to break up. Are you going to give her the satisfaction?" My mother asks, and I cry harder. "She's not here to see what she has done. You have chased her off the mine. She will never know what she has done. And I do not care anymore. All I'm asking is for a break. I don't want to see Charlie right now. I don't want to see him for a few months. I want to go to Europe, and I want to tour Europe and forget about this pain inside of me. Do you understand it, Mommy?" I play on my mother's feelings. "Charlie will be here waiting for you when you return. He loves you with all his heart. I will arrange everything. I will buy your ticket to Europe. Your father has already agreed that you can go. I do not like you going alone, but you are old enough to look after yourself and will stay in the best hotels in Europe. I will plan your whole trip for you," My mother says. I do not want that. I want to plan my trip because I am planning on taking Kagiso with me and not planning to stay in grand hotels. "Mother, please. Can I plan my holiday? I want to prove to you and Daddy I am very responsible. I will call you daily, so you don't worry about me. And if you want to, we can make it video calls. I want to see the real Europe. I want to see everything there is to see. I want to go to museums, and I want to travel through the Alps on a train. I want to do everything there is to do. Please let me plan me plan it!" I beg my mother. "Fine. I will give you a card with enough money, and you can go whenever you want to and do whatever you want to. I trust you, and I know that you will be responsible. I know you are heartbroken about what Charlie did, and maybe this will take your mind off things. I will go and fetch the bank card. When do you want to leave?" My mother asks. "I want to leave as soon as possible. I want to travel with the bus to Johannesburg. I do not wish you and Dad to come and say goodbye. I am a big woman now, and it is time for me to step out. I want to be free for a little while. I know I'm your baby daughter, and you care a lot about me, but I want you to trust me and believe I will look after myself. I am not as scandalous as Anna and will not sleep around. I need to be alone. I need to prove to myself that I can live without Charlie if I need to. I want to prove I am a daughter you can be proud of. You have taught me well, Mommy. You know that I will not do stuff that I will regret later. Tonight, I will make a calendar of where I want to be and what I want to do. I will show it to you in the morning. I want to leave as soon as I can get a place on the bus to Johannesburg and a flight to London," I say and pretend to smile through the fake tears I have been crying. "I am glad to see you smile again. I can see that this makes you happy. I will talk to your father, and we will let you go. We taught you well and know you will not disgrace us. Go and plan your calendar and get your suitcases ready. We will not even go and say goodbye at the bus stop. We will let you do what you want to. You are a grown woman now. I trust you and want you to know that Dad and I love you. Your brothers are very proud of you, and they always will be. Now, sleep after you have packed and prepared your calendar for your trip. Don't stay up all night dreaming about Europe," My mother says. As she walks out, I can stop acting. Damn, my mother and father are pains in my ass.
