Chapter 40

"Didn't you remember you had a sister? There no pie for me to eat Francesca" Tara said frowning.
"oh, I didn't know you'll finish shopping earlier than usual" Tara gives me an incredulous look while I just roll my eyes and gather my plate. Damien also stands even though he's halfway through the pie.
I make my way to the kitchen with Damien trailing behind me. After dumping my plates in the sink to watch, I turn to see Damien sitting on a stool and eating his pie. "hmm, why'd you leave the dinning table if you weren't done eating?" I asked amused.
He raises his hazel eyes and gives me a blank look "I hate being clustered by people"
I dropped the sponge in the sink and folded my hands."but that's just one person. My sister"
He looks at me again and takes a sip of water."exactly, that's the point. I can hardly handle one of you and then there's her. You guys look so alike its ridiculous. Now, if you don't mind I'm trying to eat"
I roll my eyes, I could feel the frown grazing my face "but you wanted her here" I say not dropping it.
He looks up from his plate again with a rather annoyed look."I told you, apologise and she's gone" with that he took the last bite of his pie and dropped it in the sink. I stood aside as I let him wash his plate.
"Be ready early tomorrow. I have to take you shopping" he said with an eye roll. I watched as he left the kitchen in his ever so confident way.
Ridiculous, I'm definitely never going to apologise to Damien. If he wants her here just to get me to apologise for something as ridiculous and stupid as what transpired then he's in for a ride.
I shrug thoughts of Damien off as I focus on cleaning the kitchen. When I'm done, i make my way to my room for a nap but the nap turned into a full blown night rest.
Why do people call at the most ungodly hours ever. Can't like wait till a normal time? I finally gave up and checked my phone to see who the intruder was. It was 3am for crying out loud. Let me sleep!
Unfortunately, the intruder was Liza so I definitely had to pick up this call or else I'm in for an earful from her. I grudgingly received the call. "Hello" I said grumpily.
"Hello! Francesca, were you sleeping?"
I rolled my eyes while sitting up, my eyes still closed "No, I'm in space with the avengers trying to safe the universe" ridiculous, what do people do at 3am. You sleep!!!
"Oh, I'm sorry to intrude but I have to intrude. Do you know Tiana Greg?" She asked after giggling at my sarcastic come back.
I finally opened my eyes, Tiana Greg is an actress and supermodel. She's about my age and Liza and I have watched a few of her movies. We've met a couple of times, she's kinda cool.
"Yes, why?"
Liza exhaled "what will be your reaction if I told you she has a thing for Damien" I literally slumped back on the bed. Why does everyone have a thing for Damien? I need a break. Literally!!!
"How are you sure Liza?"
I could feel her rolling her eyes "of course, I'm incredibly sure, if I wasn't sure, I won't tell you. Sam and I were in one of his clubs today and Damien's interview came up and immediately, she blushed upon seeing him. I was in a far end with Sam in the club so she didn't know I was there. After Damien announced your marriage, her smile fades and she scowled. It was so obvious, her friends were shocked and tried calming her. She looked broken and disappointed. She just dashed out of the club and her friends followed her. After she left, someone revealed that she has always had a thing for him"
My shoulders slumped after hearing her words. "I'm tired Liza, now she's gonna act all bi*chy too. Whatever, thanks for telling me.
"Of course, I had to let you know so you wouldn't let your guard down around her"
I smiled "I love you babe, let me guess, you and Sam are just coming back from the club"
"of course, goodnight" she said giggling before hanging up. I kept my phone on the nightstand and laid back down to sleep when a knock on the door distracted me.
I grudgingly stoop up to open the door. After wearing my flip flops, I opened the door and saw Damien. His hazel eyes bore holes into mine. "Why didn't you come sleep in my room?" He asked quietly.
"I slept off" I simply said. He rolled his eyes and entered my room. Before I could say a word he laid on my bed and drifted off to sleep.
Why is he here?
