Chapter 46: Chapter 46

*Laura's Pnt Of View*

"W-What?" I stuttered and she sighed.

"This is your brother," she motioned to the little boy beside the man. The boy hopped happily to me. I was beyond shocked! I mean..what? What??

"I don't...understand," I muttered and the man sighed. He walked closer to me and hugged me, followed by the little boy.

"I know but you will. We are so happy to see you."

"Look if this is some joke, just end it," I blurted out and the woman looked down.

"It's not some joke, it is real," she smiled, something else glittered in her eyes.

"I don't believe you!" I responded codly and I looked away. I didn't want to see her face.

"Why?" The boy asked and I looked up to stare at him. So innocent!!

"Because my mom is dead and my father standing right there," I pointed to Mr Howard.

"It's really rude to remind him of his wife and my mother's death," I listed.

"These are my siblings too" I gestured to them.

"Laura, they are not your real family. We are!" The woman spat and I shook my head.

"They are my real family. They have been with me through everything and you want to come here and change that?! Look you might be searching for your daughter that's probably my age and I wish you luck in that, but I am not your daughter," I spat out too.

"We can go to the hospital, to do a DNA te-"

"What kind of language do you want me to speak so that you'll understand," I shot back.

They didn't waste a second as they shuffled away towards dad.

"I'm sure she just needs time, in the mean time why don't you stay here. Your house is really far away," Dad talked to them and they nodded.

"Sandra, please take them to a spare room," Dad pleaded and she nodded. She gestured for them to follow her and she led them out of the room, my room!

When they had reached ear shot dad glared at me and I smiled sheepishly.

"What was that about?" Gab asked and I shrugged.

"They are Laura's real blood family," Dad explained and I huffed.

"No, they aren't," I denied.

"They are really. Can't you see the resemblance between you and that woman?" Dad asked and I shook my head. No!

"You should act nice. You always wanted a family, your family," he explained.

"Yeah, I have them now" I smiled and he returned it.

"I understand that but they have come for you-"

"Please don't give me away," I panicked and he sighed. He walked closer and sat at the edge of my bed.

"I will never do that. You'll have to decide that yourself," he said and I smiled.

"I'm going nowhere. I already made up my mind," I shrugged.

"Laura this is-"

"Dad, please don't try to convince me. You are my real family. It doesn't matter if we aren't of the same blood."

"My real blood dumped me somewhere to die but you didn't. You fought with me and for me. You all gave me everything I ever wanted and much more. You gave me love, a home, clothes and much more. I love you for that and I'll never ever leave you, never," I pointed out as tears stringed my eyes.

"Oh Laura that was so sweet!" Kat cried as they hugged me.

"So tight!" I squeaked and they shifted away and all mouthed a sorry.

The door slowly opened and Sandra appeared, "Did I miss anything?" We are busted into laughter.

"I should be the one asking that!" I pouted.

"Okay, let's fill you in. Firstly, I want you to know that we are getting married tomorrow," Luke dropped the bomb and my jaw was forced open.

"Tomorrow???" I asked but then..."Wait, what day is tomorrow and why are you getting married so soon."

"Okay we are just kidding," they said between laughter and I rolled my eyes.

"Although, it's coming up but not now," Luke stated as he stared at Sandra who was blushing under his gaze. Cute!!

"This is awful," I muttered and bowed my head.

"What is it?" Everyone panicked and I sighed before looking up.

"I know that my leg is broken, guys. I just can't imagine using a crutch," I face palmed.

"I used it once, Laura. It is not so bad," Kat said as she peeled my hands off my face.

"I doubt that," I pretended to gag and it irritated me because of the things I went through.

"Thank you guys!" I started and they all stared at me confused.

"For what?" Nelly asked and I smiled trying to hold my tears.

"For being there for me always. I love you guys," I sniffed.

"Aww! It's nothing" Sandra pffted if there's anything like that. I laughed!

I gracefully hopped in my PJ's, towards the kitchen. So far I couldn't sleep because of excitement. I greeted the maids and they happily answered, and yes, I said maids.

We were currently in the royal castle. Something big is going to happen tomorrow and I'm ready. Same reason I'm jogging, my leg healed six months ago bug I still get a little sting when I stand too much. I don't want that to happen tomorrow so I'm getting some exercise.

Tomorrow is a big day, literally. I don't want to feel anything other than happiness tomorrow. This occasion is really special between my family. And just so you know, I and my blood family have reunited but I'm not living with them. They have my blood but not my heart.

I can laugh and tolerate them but they can't replace my real family at all. I don't want to be so rude so I hang out with my brother a lot, it's really not cool to be the youngest at home, so I'm glad to have a real blood little brother..
