Alisa pov
"Dad,I will get going,am already late for the training"I said to him as I kissed him lightly on the cheek.
"Okay!"he replied but his eyes were fixed on the laptop he was operating on.
"Dad,did you hear what I said?"I asked angrily,he is paying much attention to his laptop more than me.
That's how it has always been,is either he is busy with work or he is with his second wife who lives a little bit far from the street.
"I heard what you said Alisa and as you can see am busy!"he replied while I roll my eyes.
"Busy all the time"I muttered to myself as I walked out from the house, stepping into the bus stop where taxi normally drop.
After a little while of waiting,a blue taxi arrived in front of me and I entered into the car, bought out my earphones. Applied it on my ear and listen to my favorite song.
Am already late for the training,I just hope miss Tessa will not get mad at me.
This is the only opportunity I have to become a famous singer without the help of dad.
He has always been a pain on my neck ever since mom died, that day was horrible and scaring to me as a little girl then.
Mom death is still a mystery because we don't know how she died.
Gosh!
I have missed her so much.
She was the only one who believe in my talent unlike dad.
"Ma'am we are here"the taxi driver announced and I looked out from the window to behold alpha recording label department. The department is made for singers like the loverboys and lovergirls.
"Thanks"I utterd calmly as I came down from the car and payed him off and he left.
I walked into the training ground, everywhere was looking extremely fabulous and exquisite.
"Miss Alisa right?"miss Tessa asked as she approach me and I nod my head.
"Welcome"she blurted out as she bought out her hand for a shake and I received it calmly.
I followed her to the mentor office,the lady that will be in couching me.
I signed some documents and other things.
"Miss Alisa,that will be all for now, but your training will start next week"my mentor said as I searched over her shirt to see if I can see her name.
"Thank you miss Mitchell"I replied and she looked at me and said"how did you know my name?"
"I saw it in your shirt"I reply and she smile, exposing her dimples.
After everything,I went back home.
"Alisa, you came back home and refused to tell me how the training went?"dad interrogate me.
I didn't response to his question, instead I proceed with the food I was cooking.
"Am talking to you Alisa"he utterd again but this time around a little bit angry.
"When do you suddenly care about my welfare dad huh!I thought what matters to you is your wife and daughter.. please let me be"I squeaked with little tears.
"Ever you get married to her, you have stop caring about me so stop acting nice"I scarper out from the kitchen.
He can't come and start acting all nice to me because his beloved wife and daughter are not around.
My tummy made a growling sound.
Am damn hungry and am not with any money.
I checked my saving box but the money on it can't afford to buy sandwich.
I went into the bathroom to Take a quick shower, after that I packed my hair in a ponytail style.
Looking at myself in the mirror,I was satisfied with the look.
Am not that beautiful.
I left the room, descending from the stairs I was hearing my dad voice and some other voices that sounds like his wife and daughter.
Ohhh!
I was right.
The two witches are back.
There are back!
His wife and daughter.
"Alisa baby how are you doing?"the wife asked but I was not in the mood to reply anyone.
"Don't worry dear, she is probably tired from her training"I heard dad's voice from the sitting room consoling the wife.
Rubbish!
She destroyed my family.
If not for her mom Will still be alive.
"Hey young lady watch where you are going"I heard a distance voice. That was when I realized that I was walking in the middle of the road.
"Sorry"I apologised to the man and ran over to the next road.
My tummy was still giving me that growling sound.
I walked into a Chinese restaurant and ordered for sandwiches.
I sat down close to the window where I can see everything that is happening around.
After some minutes,I was done with the food and the waiter wrote down my bills and showed it to me.
My eyes pop out as I stared at the bills in my hand.
The money I have can't pay half of the bills.
Am finished!
Assume I know,I could have offered maybe bread and milk instead of sandwich.
"Miss please can I have your money,am doing something very important"the waiter utterd calmly and my heart beat increased.
What will I tell him.
Oh my goodness!
Am going to wash their plates because that is the only option I have left.
"I .....I....wi...!"
"Don't worry miss,I will pay for the food"someone said behind me, the voice sounds great, like an angel.
I turned around to see the man that just save my ass.
Oh my goodness!
This guy is damn cute
He has full pink lips and tall shoulders.
"Miss,are you okay?"he asked bringing me out from my wide thought back to reality.
When I realized myself,he has already settle the payment.
"Y.....y...yes"I stuttered unable to hide my crazy look.
But gosh! This guy is handsome,with the way he moves his eyes and lips, you will feel like kissing him.
"Thank you sir"I greeted him as I bow my head avoiding his gaze.
"Welcome"
"Am leo"he said as he bought out his hand for a shake.
"Am Alisa"I replied taking his hands into mine suddenly a strange feeling filled my nose as I stared at his green eyes.
His scent was not that of a normal human being and it smells like the scent that was discovered in my mom's body when she died.
I had to wave off such thought.
But something seems strange about him.
His hands were cold.
He was looking amazing on the blue shirt he was putting on.
His six pack were visible on the shirt.
Like his hands were cold.
"Ok Alisa see you later"he utterd and before I could ask him where he lives,he has already opened the door and walked out.
I breathed out heavily and stared at the money I was holding.
Thank goodness,, this guy came if not I don't know what I will do. Maybe by now,I will be in the kitchen washing their plates.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I walked back home, from a distance I can hear the giggle sounds of Mrs Eva and her daughter Joy.
Finally I arrived at the door step,as I wanted to open the door,I heard from foot step from the garden.
"Alisa.. you are back?"Joy asked as she was watering the flowers.
"Yes!"
"Your food is in the kitchen..mom prepare your favorite food"she utterd with a face of Bliss.
"Okay I will be in my room"
"Are you okay?"she asked.
"Yeah!"
"But......!"
"Look Joy am not in the mood for all this"I cut her off. She stared at me.
