Chapter Four And who are you to question me?

Lupin's POV

....

Mustard girl....

The man of my dreams finally talks to me and what he uses to recognize me is Mustard girl.....

This is the right time to ask the ground to swallow me right.

He stared at me expectantly.

"I'm fine..." I muttered

All my excitement died the moment he mentioned that.

"What's your name?" He asked shifting back a bit while smiling.

"Lupin"

He tilted his head to the right a bit and closing his eyes for a mid second before frowning at me

"Weird name... what does it mean?"

" It's a flower" I quoted

"Oh" his eyes widened with realization

" sorry, I don't know much about them"

"Sure"

I turned my back to him and stood up wanting to go but he held my hand back.

" What were you doing here?" He asked concern leaking from his voice.

The image of Nathaniel making out with my mom flashed through my mind again and I flinched.

"Mind your own business Russell! And stop asking me questions already!" I practically yelled at him

He let go of my hand taken aback by my sudden outburst

Great, now my crush thinks I'm a maniac.

He moved back slightly and looked away to the family or rodents that was now scampering away.

" Sorry." He mumered

sigh

I didn't mean to be like that.

"I should go now" he said then placed his hands in his pockets and headed back.

What have I done now.

I couldn't help but face palm myself. And why was he acting so dejected, he started it when he won't stop being a pest.

"Ughhh!"

Sometimes life isn't fair.

After cleaning the bottom of my knee length free gown that I was facing the floor when I sat, I walked away from there too.

There's no reason to feel bad Lupin. You just acted on your instincts right. Yeah.

I left the alley and was hit on the face roughly with a strong gust of cool air.

Glancing around I realized that the sun had nearly fallen. So soon? I must have spent a lot of time in there then.

Slowly but surely I trotted back home. I nudged at the knob and it won't budge. Why is that. I tried harder but it was all vain.

I reached for my pocket before remembering that I forgot to take my mobile phone in my fit of confused rage earlier.

I looked round before placing my hands in the vase for the spare key but felt nothing. Something's not right.

I saw a car pull up in front of the building and out of it came a man from the driver's seat. He swiftly moved to the back and opened the door for whoever was in to emerge.

I frowned deeply. Where this was going I didn't like it. Never in my life have I been locked out of my own house before.

Out came a stunning looking girl. Probably  a few years older than me. But her long wavy dirty blonde hair was literally glittering under the setting sun.

She was dressed simply but beautifully in a bright orange coat that went all the way down to her knees and under it was a dark denim trousers.

Her brown short length heel boots. Complimented her outfit perfectly. I don't know why but I felt like I've seen her somewhere before.

She walked to where I was standing and even through the shades she wore I could easily see the disgust in her eyes.

I glared back at her. I wasn't gonna let some snobby b*tch look down on me in my own house.

"What are you doing here?" She asked with a tone that demanded authority.

What the hell!

You are seriously tryna order me about in my own house. ( even though we aren't in it yet) But I'll admit she's bold.

"And who are you to question me?" asked back trying not to be intimidated.

She was clearly shocked by my response due to the way she held her chest almost instantly. She abruptly removed her shades and looked at me straight in the eye not blinking even once.

" You brat..." She whispered in a low voice but not too low to avoid my ears.

" Markus!" She called

The young man in a perfectly fitted suit ran to her side at the mention of his name.

" Ma'am" he replied

" Get this filthy trash out of my sight" she spat with venom.

What?

I don't understand at all. I glanced at the man as he approached me professionally

" Young Miss please it would do you know harm to avoid infuriating her anymore and take your leave" he said curtly.

How rude!

How dare they. What the hell is going on.

The woman then ignored my presence and brought out a key from her coat pocket and opened the door. She entered and Markus followed.

And she sure as hell couldn't resist the urge to slam the door in my face.

What just happened!

I turned back to stare at their black car parked outside.

I turned back to see the number on the building.

109.

What am I doing this was my house! I remember the route clearly. But why we're these strangers suddenly acting like they own the place and even have the key to the door.

I moved back to the road and looked around. How was it dark so quickly! It's like the whole universe is against me today.

But where will I spend the night. I don't have any friends to go to nor relatives that stay here.

Ethan?

He was good friends with Joshua maybe he would let me pass the night at his place. He stays not too far away I think... what if he doesn't let me in.

No I shouldn't think like that.

" Umm...hi. "

I was so lost in thought I didn't notice a brown haired girl was in front of me.

My eyes furrowed after recognizing the owner of those trimmed bangs.

"Can we talk...."

Anna.
