92-in My Home

“What are you doing here?” I heard someone shout at me and make me turn around in panic. Our new teacher had walked into the woods to find me with Colt.

I gulped when I watched Mr. Mykel look behind me and then narrow his eyes at my face. I turned around to tell Colt I would meet him again when I found him gone.

“Shit!” I cursed as I realized Colt must have felt like I brought this man to capture him. Soon Mykel made me walk out of the woods and called all my so-called stepbrothers to pick me up. The brothers came in one car to attend the meet- ing with Mykel.

“I am sorry for disturbing you all, but this matter needed immediate attention,” Mykel said, rubbing his hands and not sitting in one place. The brothers had settled down in the chairs while I was standing against the wall like a guilty per-son.

“What is wrong?” Akin questioned, his stare slowly travel- ing to me and then making its way back to Mr. Mykel.

“I found Beatrice in the woods.” Mykel stated, “She walked into the woods with a guy who ran away the instant he saw me,” he added, and the look on the brother’s face hard- ened.

Helel had his eyes traveling around as he was trying to conclude something, while the others looked lost too.

“So you called us here to slut shame her?” Helel stretched his neck, cracking his knuckles too as he expressed rage to the teacher, “She is not your responsibility and neither is she a child.” He added, making it certain that he was taking my side.

“No! obviously not. I knew she was staying at the man- sion, so I just wanted to alarm you that the woods are not a safe place to wander around these days. There have been some cases of robbery, assault, and murder in the woods. I didn’t want her to hate me, so I called you in. Maybe you could talk to her and ask her who the guy was and why he had run away when he saw me. Mykel asked in a mild tone, still making it sound weird.
