Chapter 12: Lost Sister
"Knock knock"
Penny frowned when the door kept knocking. She had already turned and covered her head with a pillow. But the incessant knocking did not stop. Most of the time when she did not respond, the maids did not dare to knock again. What changed today?
Penny frowned. Without opening her eyes, she touched the table near her. With her hands, she traced the objects and when she reached for the vase, she held it tightly in her hands and threw it on the door.
The vase crashed on the door. It's shards falling all over the floor. She smirked when she did not hear the knock again. And slowly moved the pillow from her face. How dare they think that they held the authority.
She tossed on the bed and rubbed her face on the pillow when she heard footsteps in her room. She frowned and forced her eyes to open. Her face was already red with rage.
"How dare..." she paused and looked at the three people in confusion. There was her father, a man holding a briefcase and a young man. She felt that she had seen the young man somewhere.
He looked extremely handsome. She smiled at him for a second forgetting that she was still in her nightgown and she had a drool on her chin.
"Why are you sleeping here Penny? This is your sister's room." Penny frowned. Her muddle headed brain was still in a dazed state from the night sleep. She looked at her father in confusion.
"Father, did you forget something? This room belongs to only me. Nora lives in the.." but she paused when she noticed the intensifying glare of her father. It paused her and then she looked at the other two men again. She did not know what was happening, but she was sure something was amiss.
