Alicia's Pov:
I don't know what to expect today. Felipe will be spending the day with me. I don't need a babysitter. It's not like I will steal their money or run away, so need to keep me under supervision.
At least Felipe is not one of the meanest brothers. He mostly keeps it to himself. I just hope that I don't have to spend another day in the car.
It is a routine here to wake up then brush and bathe followed by breakfast. Then see what my designated brother wanna do with me, finally dinner then goodnight.
Just in my case, the nights aren't that good. Nightmares haunt my peaceful sleep almost every day. Maybe sir and Madam are gone from my life but it still hurts. Not just the scars they inflicted on my body hurt but the permanent scars they left on my soul, hurt more and more every day.
Let's fast forward my negative thoughts and monotonous routine and skip to breakfast.
At the dining table, Lucas asked me how was my day yesterday. Instead of writing anything in my diary, I replied with a smile. He again asked that did I had fun. I simply nodded in response.
I didn't engage in any other conversation until breakfast was finished.
"Excited to spend with me Gatita," Felipe asked me after breakfast and I gave him a small smile.
(Kitty)
Both of us went to my room. While I was seated on the edge of my bed, Felipe joined me and handed me my diary and pen.
"So what do you want to do today, stay at home or go out? "
Unlike Lucas or Issac, Felipe asked me what I was to do.
Stay at home, please. I wrote in the diary. After spending the day with Issac, going out was nowhere in my mind.
"Great then. What shall we start with?" He raised his one eyebrow thinking.
"Any suggestions Gatita?"
I suddenly remembered Lucas mentioning that Felipe may teach me about using technology.
I stood up and brought out the box containing various gadgets that Lucas had gifted me.
Can you teach me? I wrote in the diary and showed it to him.
"oh dear, you asked the right person. Come let's start with your mobile phone.
So this is the iPhone 14 pro max. It is similar to the rest of your Brothers phone. Let's unbox it. Remember niña, always carry your phone with you, wherever you go and whatever you do. It will help you to communicate with us and we could communicate with you through it."
He showed me a variety of features like how I can message anyone or how to call or answer any call. He taught me how to face time or click a picture. I can't believe that this little device has thousands of things to do.
I would never be bored now.
Later he taught me the basics of every other device. It was overwhelming.
Playing games Listening music Watching Youtube Clicking selfie Surging the internet I did it all today with so many other things. It was so much fun.
I laughed after so many years when Felipe and Yahel did a funny face filter in the snapshot.
Yahel joined us saying something like we are a better company than that stuck-up Issac. His words, not mine.
None of us realized that it was past lunchtime when Clara reminded us.
Felipe ordered pizza for the three of us saying that it was his treat because he was happy today.
I tasted pizza for the first time and it was so yummy. I think I got a favorite food now. The sauces and cheese on the bread were like heaven.
After lunch, we three watched a movie named Frozen. It was a nice movie but halfway through it and my eyes were dropping.
I had a good time with both Felipe and Yahel. I slept with a smile.
Lucas's Pov :
It was dinner time already and three of my siblings were missing. Clara informed me that they were in Alicia's room.
I hardly show any emotions ever but even I couldn't stop the smile that sat on my face, seeing all three of them sleeping while hugging and cuddling each other. Though they were asleep, their faces were calm and happy.
It was relaxing to just watch them.
I couldn't help but click a few pictures of them.
Yahel's POV :
Today is my turn to spend time with Xia. I already have things planned out and I am so excited.
For all these years I tried so hard to not miss my little Hermana. I tried to always look happy and pass stupid jokes so at least my elder brothers would smile.
Life without Alicia was dull and tedious. Mom and Alicia were like some beautiful angels who made our life pretty and meaningful. Their smiles meant more than the sun to us.
Thanks to Jesus that at least one of our angels returned.
I woke Alicia up and told her to meet me downstairs once she freshen up.
While she was getting ready I made the other arrangements.
Alicia's POV :
When I was ready for the day, I went downstairs. As Felipe told me yesterday so I took my phone with me.
Felipe was waiting for me at the end of the stairs.
He took my hand and guided me through the main gate. I stopped walking, took out my phone, and typed, Are we not having breakfast first?
"Breakfast gotta wait Princesa."
What about the tradition, we can't miss it. Lucas will be angry.
"Lucas won't be angry Cariño, I have his permission. No shall we go?"
I smiled at him and nodded.
We got out of the house and towards the backyard. It is my first time out here.
This mansion is surrounded by forest for as far as I can see. Perilous but pretty.
We walked for some time and could hear the sound of flowing water somewhere.
The mystery was solved when we stopped at an astonishing place. I can't believe such a place was hidden behind the mansion.
It was a small pond with a waterfall. There were so many colorful fishes in there. Wow. I had no words to describe this tranquility.
(That's why sharing a picture 😉)
While I was busy admiring the waterfall Lucas spread a blanket right in front of it. He opened the basket and it was filled with our breakfast.
"Come sit Angel."
I sat beside him and we both had our breakfast. It was so relaxing and calm here that for the first time I finished the whole plate.
After we were done eating, Yahel gave me a bottle of fish food. It was so much fun feeding the fish. They would all come swimming around the food. These tiny creatures were so lively. they raced from one end to another. Free from all worries and stress. Happily in their abode.
Their vibrant colors make me so happy. They fill me with positivity. It energizes me. my cheeks now kinda hurt from smiling so much for so long.
This is amazing Yahel. I love it.
"I know right, it was our mom's favorite place she designed it herself. We all came here a lot. Even when you were a baby you loved playing here with the fish." Yahel said almost lost in his thoughts.
After spending around half an hour there, Yahel grabbed my hand to show me something else.
Not far from the pond, there was a very pretty circular swing. It was decorated with so many pretty flowers. Yahel helped me to sit on it and then pushed it from my back.
"Do you like it?"
Love it.
"Dad and all of your Brothers made it for you when you were like 6 months old. More like, Dad made it and we just helped to decorate and to pick flowers."
Listening to this I had tears in my eyes. I can't resist asking anymore.
Yahel what happen all these years back? Where are our parents?
"I know there are so many questions running through your brain. But Angel I am not the right person to answer them. And I even don't have the answers to all your questions as well. Sorry, Hermana."
I nodded and wiped my tears.
What a happy-sad day it was. Full of feelings... __________________________________
