The dusk finally took its tool. We took a chartered
plane from Tokyo International airport at exactly 9:00 pm as scheduled. The
weather was sublime and cooperative. I knew leaving the portals of Khail’s mansion;
I would not be protected by the invincible walls that Joey built. I knew that
leaving the mansion would open me up to knowledge about legacy and the
incredible wealth. Leaving the Japan too would be my first exposure to human
world since I was under the custody of Khail. With me were my super-duper
extraordinary siblings who would risk their lives for my protection.
I wonder why dad has to let us board the plane
to Greece when we can fly and reach Greece in a matter of few minutes. This is
an exhausting and boring flight. I would rather love to fly and let the small
wings in my ankles flicker back and forth. I'd like to feel myself flying like Tinkerbell with her small dragon-like wings flickering. See the objects below like they are microbe
gasping for life. See the splendid beauty of the earth. See the colossal blue water divided by lands. I raised my both arms upward and uttered, “Oh this
is freedom. I love it.”
I saw Mikhail winked at me who was seated just
right beside me. Darwin and Stephen were seated separately near the window.
Stephen was reading a woman's magazine. Darwin's ears were plugged with earphones and eyes closed. I bet he was listening to jazz music. His favorite piece of music. Jeez, so Stephen had a feeling for her opposite sex. I have never seen him dating gals. Or maybe he was dating but oblivious to me. He could sneak anyway. Damn! who cares anyway? Girls could be attracted. His face was so angelic that could melt any women's heart. Women would go crazy chasing at him. Just like chasing butterflies. Just a thought that
came to my mind that it made me giggled.
“Hey Abby,” called Stephen. “You have a nasty
mind.” Ops, he read my mind. “Don’t
get piss,” I told Stephen. Then I made a sign of peace but I still kept on giggling.
“I am not pissed Abby. Actually, I am looking for new fashions trends in this mag. Ah what’s the name of this mag..oh yeah Seventeen.
You need to wear trendy outfits not sporty one. You will look gorgeous and
mature when you wear these dresses. The people in Greece must see you with a mature sophisticated look. Not a young 12 year old lass. We need to place an order to be delivered to our
suite before we reached Thessaly.” Stephen was teasing me.
I gasped. “Oh really! Let me see that magazine. I
should order for myself. Not you. How do you know about fashions?” I reacted. “Girl,
I went to fashion designing school in Paris. I kept going back and forth
between Japan and Paris. That is why, you can see me and you don’t sometimes but I am
always with you my little sissy. Part of your father’s business is manufacturing
garments. I design clothes. You have little idea how rich you are,” declared
Stephen.
“Even though, I should choose what is the best outfit for me. I know my taste.” I scoffed at Stephen. My face frowning. I heard Stephen ordered clothes for me from a Bethany Boutique Store in Greece. Lots of establishments named after my mom. Dresses from famous fashions designers. I heard Stephen ordered dozens. "Gosh what would I do with those dresses," I said to myself. I abhor to hear their conversation My inside
was boiling but I needed to control my anger. When I got mad, things would not
go right for all of us. I kept quiet for a moment then I dazed to sleep.
Suddenly I heard a strong force of noise just on the
plane’s roof. "Thug, thug." It seemed like a big object fell on the plane's roof. I was alarmed of the noise. I sensed an eminent danger. “An enemy?” I said to myself. “What’s
up, Abby?" asked Mikhail. "I heard a noise on the roof of the plane," I said. "Yeah, I heard too," paralleled Darwin.
“Let me take a look at it. Some evil forces
might be spying on us,” said Mikhail. “I’ll go along with you bro,” Darwin told
Mikhail. "Abby stay here. Stephen watched over Abby," Mikhail commanded. They were about to leave when we heard a familiar sound of voice.
“There’s no need. Sorry, it was me. I was just making a fuss to frighten all of you,” laughed Joey. I have been
sitting on the plane’s roof since this plane embarked from Japan. It was so cold
outside. I need to get inside the plane. Oh
is there any coffee?” Joey never stopped talking to justify his actions.
We all stared at each other. After few minutes of silence, there was a chorus of laughter all over the
plane. Good Joey was around. At least, I was confident that no harm will be
afflicted on us. Eventually I was not scared with this journey. I only wanted that our flight to Greece would be smooth sailing before I have to face Kalil. Thinking about this guy excites me.
“You can go to sleep guys. I just need a sip of
coffee. You don’t have to worry. This plane is protected by invincible wall,”
Joey declared. Joey winked at me. I smiled at him. I tried to close my eyes. It would be a long journey to Greece. About 13 hours.
