Bloody Fog - Episode 16

Margaret heart was struggling to pull her back inside to make everything seem alright as she reached Dee's room.

She tried to knock but there was no response. In fear that something was wrong, she stormed in but she was proven otherwise.

Dee was lost in the events of last night. It was like she was watching a romantic series in her mind.

Her and Nick playing  under the stars, the numerous selfies they took and how he  also serenaded her. But the most special moment of all was when he carried her off the floor, his eyes  held in hers. It felt like the world had been put to a pause when he spinned her around.

Dee then wrapped her arms around his neck and rested her forehead on his. For a moment Nick was hesitate on what he wanted to do next but the urge was unbearable.

He pressed his lips on hers softly unsure of what was to follow making every nerve in her body suddenly flow in one spot. Unluckily she pulled back, she swore no man would ever take Nelson's place. But deep down her heart she wasn't sure for how long she was willing to keep her promise especially after meeting the one with the warm brown eyes.

The memory of that made Dee smile staring at her ceiling. It seemed like she was watching a video or pictures in a slideshow motion by the way she stared at the ceiling playing with her hair

. She didn't wanna think of him but his images stubbornly stuck in her mind.

"Someone seems happy," her mother teased  lying beside her.
Those words snapped her back to reality.
She stared at her mother, covering her face in embarrassment.
"So give me the details???" requested her mother sitting upright.

Without hesitation, Dee took her phone and lied on her mother's lap showing her the selfies they took.
"I am happy for you my girl, so hope you two didn't have sex????" confirmed Margaret and Dee disagreed with a frown looking the other way.

"I am sorry dear, i was joking. I trust you." Margaret giggled tickling her.
"We just kissed," Dee typed on her phone and showed her mother smiling.
"I am glad you had fun, you can't imagine what happened downstairs????"
"What???" Dee typed on her phone.
"Ben with his visions again," Margaret agonized stroking Dee's hair.

"So I will not live in peace in this house???" joked Ben entering the room.
Dee ran to him and gave him a hug," How is my little sister doing????"
"Okay," she typed and walked back to bed.
"Dee when will you talk to us??? we miss your lovely voice." Ben asked in a dry tone.
"Ben, the doctor said it will take time so don't pressurize your sister." Margaret warned him and he lifted his hands up in surrender.

"What were the most beautiful girls in the world talking about???" chirped Ben but Margaret told him off," Girl talk young man."

"Dee, what did you do to deserve such luck???" quizzed Esther angrily walking into Dee's room.
Everyone in the room exchanged confused glances.
"Wait, Ben you come home and instead of coming to see me, you are here chit chatting with Dee and mother. Unbelievable ." Esther complained.

. Her arms crossed on her chest, shaking her head in disbelief.

"So what were you talking about earlier???" asked Ben ignoring her last statement.
"You guys don't know, Dee and Nick are trending all over the social media. In entertainment shows and blogs. The question is, Are they dating????" yelled Esther moving around the room, palm fisting herself.
"Let me see," beseeched Ben taking her phone.
"Its nothing of a big deal, the situation will cool down soon." He cheered trying to ease the tension in the room.

In a blink of an eye, Esther had pounced on Dee  strangling her," I was supposed to be with Nick. Talk already you little devil." She sobbed as Ben tried to get her off Dee who was now on tears while Margaret tried to get her grip off Dee's neck.

"Have you gone mad Esther????" asked Margaret in a confused state. What was happening to her family that the  sisters have begun to turn against each other because of love?????
"Yes I am mad in jealousy and love. Since Dee's traumatic encounter you only think about her mum. What about me, What about Esther??? I wish she just talked and everything would go back to normal or Travis would have...." She was cut off with a slap that made her dizzy.

Esther then sucked in a sob before calming herself down and coming in terms with the slap.
"Mum, you slapped me because of Dee. I wish she just drops dead." One could feel the resentment behind her tone. 

Margaret was about to give her the beating of her life when Ben held her," Mum, don't. I will talk to her."

Dee was quietly sobbing on her bed her hand placed on her neck, tears that showed how broken she was inside. Her mother offered her a hug and she took it. She melted into her like a child , while her mother stroked her hair.

"What's happening here???? I could hear shouts from downstairs." enquired Gerald, him and Timmy running to the room.
"Ask your daughter," responded Margaret in fury.
"Mum calm down," advised Ben," Esther strangled Dee, Mum slapped her and out of anger she said she wished Dee was dead." Ben narrated the unfolding of the dramatic events.

Poor Esther, another slap from Timmy that made her stagger backwards.
"Are you mad????" fumed Timmy almost giving her another slap but Ben holds him back.

"Yes, I am madly in love with Nick." She replied sobbing on the floor.
"I guess its time this Nick is prohibited in this house if he is the reason my daughters are going to kill each other.." Gerald concluded leaving the room.

What's your say on this my dear readers???? 
Does Esther have the right to be mad????
