Kamilah was unaware of everything else. She was standing in front of the other mansion, it's huge wrought iron gates towering over her. The sun reflected off the windows, making them look as if they were winking at her, the massive porch at the front was a gleaming white, and and the front door a deep red. She stood fixated. This was her home. This is where she gew up, and yet, something wasn't quite right. She couldn't put her finger on it. She walked closer to the gates and looked through. The green grass looked soft (it was one of the few houses with grass in the area) and she remembered plaing on it with the sprinklers. Her thoat suddenly became sore. She loved this house.
She jumped as the front door opened and a tall blonde woman came out, a few kids surrounding her. They were laughing, talking. Kamilah jumped back from the gate.
This wasn't her house. Not anymore.
She turned and ran into Jaekes, just like she used to as a child, before everything changed. She heard their voices in the marble hall. She snorted as she imagined what Kira's reception would be like. Openeing the door she became aware of laughter. Laughter she recognised. She opened the door wider, and couldn't believe what she was seeing. Jaeke was having fun, laughing, genuinely laughing, with Seth. She felt a sudden jolt as she realised how attractive they both were at that moment.
She quickly recovered and her face became her usual mask.
"What's going on?" she asked. "I can't believe they let you in J, where's her royal pain the *** Kira?"
