Chapter 3 - Confusion

Their my family... the woman sitting there is my mother Merisa Kunburg, or Merisa Marlena. She has blonde hair and leafy green eyes, she is very kind although she may look a little mean. She’s been kind to everyone including Layla, even thought Layla always yells and say mean things to her.

The man sitting beside her is my father Kingston Marlena. He has dark brown hair and he also has green eyes, he is quite cold to people he dislikes. But he’s actually quite nice once you get to know him, it’s just he’s never been that nice to Layla though...

for the boy that looks about 18-19 he’s my second brother Lance Marlena. He has purple eyes and blonde hair that looks like white. He is handsome gentlemen, a lot of girls want to marry him but he never accepts any of them. He’s very kind and sweet, but he can be very cold too. Just like how he is to the old Layla.

Now finally the one that’s sitting beside Lance, he’s my eldest brother Mark Marlena. He has light brown hair just like Layla and Purple eyes like Lance. He is a commander for the country’s army. He’s very kind, but he can also be very cold and scary thought he has a kind and soft face. He doesn’t like Layla very much but he still has be nice to her cause she is his younger sister.

I stepped in the room and took a seat on the chair the farthest from all of them. They wouldn’t usually eat with Layla so they would only come to eat with her every once in a month. The reason is simple, she yells and throws tantrums a lot. “Darling, why are you sitting so far away from us?” Asked mother in a confused voice, “I’ve gotten a habit of sitting here now.” I replied. I was lying I didn’t get a habit of sitting on this seat, I just feel like I shouldn’t sit too close to them. “Is that so? But don’t you want to come sit over here? We only come have dinner with you once a month.” Said mother. I couldn’t refuse... if I did then mother would probably be sad, she also quite sensitive when it comes to her loved ones.

I got up and sat one the seat next to her I smiled and ate my food. Everyone was surprised that smiled like that, and they were probably confused way I wasn’t yelling and throwing a tantrum. “Are you alright dear? Do you feel uncomfortable?” Said mother in a confused voice while she put her palm on my forehead. “I’m perfectly fine,” I replied, then started eating again. I could feel how confused they were, they were probably thinking, I wasn’t throwing a tantrum? Yeah of course I wasn’t throwing a tantrum, I wasn’t the old Layla I was a completely different person.
