"Whatcha writing "

"Ahhhhhhhbaaaaasrhhhh" Athena shouted and flung her hands forward and covered whatever she was writing.

"What the heck Zion " Athena exclaimed.

I shrugged "I was calling you for one minute but you didn't answer when I saw you intensely writing something which is strange since you get easily distracted " I asked.

"Pff... that's not true...

I raised a eyebrow , really.

She rolled her eyes "Fine but you scared me "

"What are you doing " I asked and looked behind her , since she was still coming down from the scare.

I snuck and took the the paper she was writing.

"ZION PUT BACK THE PAPER NOW " she launched herself up .

If she shouts like this then there is something about it .

With that I ran out of her room with the paper in my hand.

"ZIONNNNNN" she shouted, I took a glance behind my shoulder. She was running on a full sprint with look only said I better give the paper or run for my life.

Well....

If I give this paper what the use of having a sister.

Let's have some drama.

With that I sprinted off the stairs.

"Ahhh you and you're giraffe legs" she shouted running off.

I quickly entered the living room .

Guess I can say I have giraffe legs.

I then moved to the table so it can act like a shield between us.

"Give that PAPER to ME " she growled breathing heavily standing at the other side of the table.

She looked like a raging bull ready to attack it's human prey.

Poor human.

Oops.

That is me .

"What is this your secret mission letter to your commando " I said and took the paper . I squinted my eyes when I saw hearts and flowers on the paper.

What the hell.

"Oh my gosh. Dear sweetheart, I ..heart you ... with all my heart .. and you are the reason for my .... Ahhhhhhhh" I laughed screamed when Athena jumped on the table.

But with my quick reflex I got away running away with the hilarious love letter in my hand.

"ZION YOU BETTER STOP RUNNING OR I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN AND DISARTICULATE ALL YOUR LIMBS AND FEED IT TO THE UGLY DOGS DOWN THE STREET "

I laughed "They are not ugly " I shouted and ran into the kitchen.

"Ahhhhh" she growled .

I have to rethink if she really has a animal inside her .

When I entered the kitchen I saw my mom making arrangements for baking . I quickly ran behind her .

"Zion what are you doing " she shrieked while balancing a bowl of flour in her hands.

"I'm tryna read this letter but Athena is not letting me" I said.

"Zion if you open your mouth you never gonna hear the end of it " Athena growled when she came into kitchen breathing heavily her shoulders heaving up and down.

Me and my mom shared a look . While I was trying to telepath a question to her saying if she really gave birth to a human being or a angry bird.

"Athena what's wrong you look like a anger from inside out "

Well. Close enough.

"It's Zion he stole my letter and he is not giving it to me "

"More like love letter " I smirked.

"WHAT- my mom words cut off by Athena launching herself.

I quickly moved around in front of my mom while Athena moved back while moving back she accidentally pushed my mom's hand.

The bowl of flour flew from her hands, like a flash I quickly ducked down .

"What is the commotion going do-

My dad's words cut off by flour falling onto his face creating a ghost look the bowl then fell down . I looked at the bowl till it stopped rotating and fell down with tick sound.

I then looked up to see my dad he blew out a breath causing some of the flour too come out .

I can only control my laughter for a little .

"Who did this "

"Mom" me and athena said the same time.

Siblings are masters in telepathy in this situation.

My mom gave us a look and she went towards dad . While Athena gave a high five to me which I returned it.

"Ahhh" my mom's squeal made both our head turn towards the direction.

"Why did you do that " my mom asked dusting off the flour .

"Payback honey" my dad said with a smirk.

We both burst into laughing . I was laughing so hard that after a moment I didn't hear Athena laughing.

When I turned my head I saw her holding a flour while having a mischievous look on her face.

My fast reflex didn't work this time before I could stop it the flour in her hand flew straight to my face.

"Ahhhhahahah" athena started laughing. "Oh my gosh.... your face. ....

I wiped my face and took a handful of flour in my hand and looked at my, oh so distracted opponent who was laughing like a manic.

Tsk Tsk , bad move. But she saw me making a step forward. She gasped and jumped but I quickly wrapped my free hand around her neck from the back.

"Zion. No we are equal stop it " she said while still laughing.

"Tsk Tsk what is the magic word"

"Please " she said with a doe eyes.

Nah I won't fall for it .

"Didn't work Athyy" I said and dumped the flour into her head.

"Ahhhh" she gasped I then took a run while she took a handful of flour . And came towards me and threw it , but it all went in vail .

I laughed "Wow Athena what did thought that the flour was a dodge ball"

She stomped her feet "Dad " she whined .

"Aww sweety dont worry " my dad said and took a flour and looked at me while Athena smirked behind him .

"Sorry son " he said and threw the flour

"Dad no- athena voice stopped midsentence

"Ahhh" my mom shrieked.

Safe to say that my family is a total fail in throwing flour .

And also safe to say that we are crazy for a rich sophisticated family.

"Honey" my dad said nervously.

I covered my laugh with a cough when my dad threw me a look.

Then something unexpected happened my mom brought a flour to her hand and flew directly into his face.

Shocked both me and my Athena mouth dropped.

"Payback honey" my mom sweetly said.

Well I guess I could say not everyone in my family is a fail in throwing flour .

My dad laughed and picked my mom caging her while my mom let out a sherik when my dad nuzzled his face into her.

We all then burst out of laughing even my mom let of a laugh . And after that our kitchen temporarily turned into a battle field but instead of sword , arrow , riffles and machine guns . We used white flour . And also instead of cries and pains there was only laughter and joy .

After the battle finished we all stood up and dusted ourselves. I then looked at the kitchen safe to say there was no blood on the wall .

We all then looked each other voicing out one common thing.

Who the hell is clean out this mess.

"I'm not cleaning it "

"I'm not cleaning it"

"I'm not cleaning it"

"I'm not cleaning it"

That's Irvine family for you .

My mom and dad turned towards us silently saying if you are not cleaning this forgot diner for tonight and for the rest of the month.

Athena and I sighed silently agreeing to it .

"Come honey let's get cleaned " my dad said grabbing my mom.

I sighed and made my way to take a cloth.

"I will be not suprised if we get another addition " Athena commented looking where our dad and mom went.

"And also a addition to annoy you " I smirked wiping the table.

"What if it is a girl so that we can team up against you " Athena said mischievously while folding her hands.

"Well-

"There is no addition to the family " my mom voice entered in the kitchen.

We both turned around to see my mom looking at us . We let of a sheepish look towards our mom .

"You two are already enough for the house. " she paused and looked around the kitchen or flour kitchen.

"More than enough " she muttered.

We both laughed at her comment and my mom also let of a small laugh.

"Clean this mess you two" she said seriously.

We both made a salute at her .

She chuckled "And Zion order some food . I don't think I have the energy nor the place to cook " she murmured the last part and went upstairs.

I then took my phone out to order the food.

"Chinese or Italian " I asked going through the phone.

"Mexican " she automatically said . I nodded and ordered some Mexican food.

I sighed when I looked at the kitchen. I then took the vaccum and started to clean the mess.

"So is there someone that I should add to my threatening list " I asked.

She groaned "There is no need for that Zion really . I don't have a boyfriend "

I raised a eyebrow at her .

She sighed "That letter is for a dare, more like a stupid dare , where my friends dared everyone to write a love letter and whoever writes the worst letter will buy dinner " she said .

Girls and their dares.

"Then I'm happy that I don't have anyone to threaten " I sighed in relief.

"Ohhh you are soo sweet " she cooed "But try to cut down this protectiveness a bit "

"I will but you can't say the same thing to dad"

She groaned while I chuckled because she know I know and everyone knows that if a guy lays her hand on her he is gonna have to think about this life because of what my dad will do to him.

After thirty mintues of cleaning wiping sweeping and whole lot of sighing and groaning we are finally finished.

Exhausted we looked at the kitchen who now looked spotless.

I looked at athena to see that she was looking at me with a smug look . I brought my hand my for a high five, she laughed and returned it.

After that we went to our rooms . I was never this desperate for a bath the flour is sticking like a second skin . And in all honesty it was not a pleasant feeling.

After a cold bath I was finally out eventhough it was getting colder in New York I like the cold and I barely get cold it is such a blessing.

After that I changed into some shorts and grey tshirt. I then made my way towards the kitchen where my mom was taking out the food from the bags.

"Oh the food already came" I commented while taking the food out.

"It just now came " my mom replied.

I just hummed and continue to take the food . After ten minutes we were finally finished.

"Gosh the smell is so amazing " Athena said coming along with dad.

"Well settle down then " my dad said and we all took our seat .

We then started serving and started eating the amazing food . After a battle and whole lot of cleaning the food was two times delicious.

"So ...... tomorrow Michael invited our family to his newest hotel " my dad started the talk .

"Mr. Merrick? " my mom asked .

"Yeah , he is a very good friend of mine and very down to earth . We meet him in the event and he invited us " my dad said

"Oh that's very lovely him " my mom said in response.

"Yeah their hotel are amazing it is good that we a have friendship without any hard feelings " my dad commented.

"Yes , i agree I'm also friends with his son " I said joining in the discussion.

"Oh really what his name " my mom asked .

"Cameron mom "

My mom squinted her eyes thinking hard.

"Dark brown hair , green eyes and the same height as mine " I said when she still didn't got it ,I took my phone out and showed a picture of me and him .

"Ohh now I know him . Oh and he also a very handsome kid " my mom said and I put the phone back .

"Two handsome boys friends with each other . How the female population gonna handle your handsomeness " my mom joked.

"More like their ugliness " Athena snorted.

I wiggled my nose breathing through my nose .

"Something burning " I asked .

"what"

"Your jealousy " I smirked.

She rolled her eyes but didn't comment anything.

"Gosh stop your bickering " my mom said with a smile.

"Zion what about the papers I asked for" my dad asked.

I waited till I swallowed my food . "I have it in the office and the other with Miss.jones . I will get it ready tomorrow " I said.

"Good, I also have some work to finish. I will come with you and Once we finished we can straight away go the hotel from the office " my dad said "And tell Miss.jones to come along with us "

"Okay" I shrugged and continued to eat.

"Wait why is she coming with us " Athena asked.

"Michael invited her also " my dad said sipping his drink .

"That means was she also there in the event " my mom asked . While I continued to eat my food not bothering to join the conversation.

"Yes ! She was there and took a large bid " my dad commented.

"Oh really how much and what did she bid" Athena asked curiously.

"A bear doll for ..... Seven hundred thousand dollars " my dad said shrugging.

"Seven hundred dollars for what a bear" Athena exclaimed.

"It's not-

"Gosh Athena " I groaned talking about someone who is not even that important Is not needed in our family diner.

"Can you stop talking and switch it "

"Hey it's interesting " Athena defended.

I narrowed my eyes "it's boring " I replied dryly.

"Okay okay please don't talk about anything related to the event. I'm still bothered by it " my mom said and looked at me and dad.

"Hey you only said , " my dad defended .

"If I said we need some decorations to our home I didn't mean you to buy a painting for a freaking 1.5 million dollars " my mom exclaimed.

"What!"

My mom just groaned

"Honey you keep on forgetting I'm billionaire " my dad said .

"And how much of idiot " my mom muttered while I chuckled since i was sitting next to her.

"What" my dad asked .

"Oh nothing I just said how much lovely you're " my mom replied.

"Smooth " I commented and have a high five to my mom while earning confused glance from my dad and sister.

I then got up and bid everyone goodnight and went to my room . After I plopped myself into the bed I grabbed my phone and send a text to Miss.jones saying that we have a small meeting tomorrow and after that we can we go together to the hotel if that was fine with her.

Five minutes went by but she still did give an answer.

Probably wondering whether to tag along with us or not . Well i don't care if she comes with us or not . It doesn't make any difference if she comes or not.

The last week had been like this . We became more of professional and addressed each other only if it is business related ,like she said and I'm pretty sure she also wanted this . Well it's not like I'm interested in what she thinks .

Well I was kinda interested before. I liked spending time with her even with her attitude i don't why but I just liked it. There was something about her drawn my attention but I don't think it was romantically.

I don't why is that I don't know if it is because she is different from all the people I have met . She is cold but there also this confident side of her and the competitive side and the feisty side . And the whole cold air around her. All this making her look different and interesting.

But when the cold side of her came that when all went down . I was kinda left this in the back of mind as it was not my business . But the more I spend time with her the more I realized I'm disliking towards her. I had the bitter feeling towards her from the first day but I didn't show .

But i didn't know why I enjoyed when we went to the country and all . But the key point is slightly I can't imagine spending the whole week enjoying it . Because in the end the hatred I had for the cold attitude always wins.

But I was getting frustrated that i liked her presence eventhough she was constantly showing her witchy attitude.

It was when she gave me a massage when I was having this hell of a headache something about her having that close to me and her hands over my head . Gave me a strange feeling which I don't why . And I was even more confused that I liked it and wanted her to do it again . She was so fragile and her soft hands on my head made me feel at ease. I can't understand why I was looking her face while she was giving me the massage eventhough she barely made a emotion.

And after the talk with her in the cafeteria eventhough there was not much to discuss but the silence I liked it. And the subtle sarcastic comments i liked it very much , much to my dismay when the talk is normal without any cold attitude it was really nice to talk and hold a conversation with her .Eventhough the events that followed were not very nice.

All the interest and the likeness were washed like a flood. After the pool and the make up incident. All that went down the hill . Even in the event I didn't feel any interest in her and saw just as a acquaintances even in her sleek black dress . In different situations I would said she was beautiful in that dress but I can't bring myself saying that because I didn't find it anything like that.

Even to my eyes she looked like the many girl I have seen and work . The same . I would have talked to her but the interest I had was completely gone and the only interest I had with her was fully about business.

Even the josh who accompanied her didn't peak my curious, guess I could say that I'm totally unbothered about her.

My thoughts were cut off by the sound of my phone indicating that I have received a message.
