My Stepbrother-Too Hot To Handle

Dabby:

I didn’t wait for the last period to end or for the bell to ring, as I picked up my bag and ran out of class immediately. I didn’t want to see Damien or the same car that was still returning, back to come to our house later in the evening.

Even if Damien were not close enough to be friends or people who could even breathe in the same space, I kind of knew the way he lived his life in school especially.

After he was done from school after the bell rang, he went out with either his friends or girlfriend. I had run into them a few times at the mall in the past, mostly in the evenings whenever I followed Mum to pick up groceries from the store.

I was so glad that I would have the entire afternoon to myself alone in the creepily big house, without a mum, a new stepdad, or a grumpy step brother whom I never wanted.

Quickly, I called a cab and took it straight home, because I could not afford to get lost on the third day of getting used to a new environment.

Honestly, I wanted to take a cab back to our old house which was like miles away, that I didn’t have a chance to say goodbye to or something. I told Mum that I would still like to pick up some of the things she regarded as useless, and she willingly agreed that she would drive me later by the weekend.

Immediately I alighted from the cab, I removed my pair of keys that led to the house and opened the door immediately. I made my way upstairs and instantly everything that I was wearing, down to my underwear, and made my way into the bathroom.

After I was sure that I had watched off every smell of stinky sauce from me, I walked out of the bathroom without any clothes the normal way I usually did back home.

I moved to the dresser to get the body oil I normally used on my body whenever I had an afternoon bath, and my eyes caught the compound from where I was standing.

From that height and view, the surroundings of the house which I had not taken more time to check out were incredibly beautiful. The arrangement of planted trees around was like a nature beach, and even crystal clear water in the pool made it look so perfect.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Not only was Mum’s new husband handsome and gorgeous, but he also had very good taste. Though I didn’t know how to swim well even after taking some lessons in middle school, the pool I was looking at began to kick some kind of instincts in me.

I dried myself up and changed into a matching shorts and top, picked my glasses, and ran downstairs to get something to eat. Despite eating at the cafeteria, I was still hungry because Madison ruined lunch for me. In a few minutes of moving everywhere and there in the really standard kitchen, I had made myself toast, bacon, and eggs.

After I was done eating, I packed the plates and washed the ones that were used that morning, and also cleaned the kitchen that Mum had left messy. If our culinary skills and kitchen management were to be graded based on heredity, then I would be ranking one-third of what I could do now.

Sure that there was still enough time to have the house to myself, I decided to explore the depths of the house I was unable to check out, because of the suffocation effect from Damien throughout the weekend. The first place that I was really interested in, was the pool that was located at the back of the house.

Being alone was good and I loved my space. Alone where I could be myself, was even more exhilarating. I sat beside the pool with both of my feet submerged into the water, as I watched the ripple effect of the disturbance I had made to the pool.

As I looked around to see how neat the surroundings and pool were, I wondered who did the extra job of keeping everything clean.

The weather was hot, and the pool was tempting. I knew I couldn’t swim so well, but the huge floaters encouraged me. There was no one at home and there was still enough time till evening, so I could just enjoy myself alone.

Without wasting any more time, I stood up, dropped my glasses, and pulled the shirt I was wearing. Left in my black sports bra, I dragged the nearest floater forward and climbed onto it.

Balancing on the floater, I rested to the back and faced the sky with my eyes closed. Though I was the boring and tactless Dabby in school, I could enjoy my own company at home.

Little did I know.
