Kai was lying on the sofa with his cell phone still in his hand.
'Maybe, that was a sign' he thought.
He'd been up ever since Mariah hung up on him, that he didn't even realise
that it was already morning, till a knock on the door brought him back to
reality.
So he got up and reluctantly opened the door.
"WELL IF IT ISN'T MY FAVORITE NEPHEW!" wailed a middle-aged woman as she wrapped her arms around him and caught him in a death grasp.
"DEER ME KAI!...YOU DON'T CALL, YOU DON'T WRITE.WHERES THE LOVE?" she said in her country accent.
"URG!...AUNTIE.L,LOUISE!" he choked out so she released him.
He immediately flew back and started coughing and rubbing his throat. She was actually very pretty, you could see the family resemblance in her dark blue hair, and she was obviously rich because of all her jewellery and her clothing.
"Don't think I don't know!!!...guess who I brought along!" she winked at him than took a deep breathe.
"GUSTAV!" she screamed.
"Yeah. I heard than when you inherited your grandfathers wealth and mansion that you fired that sweet old man who had been working there since you were born!"
Just as she said that the butler walked over with all her belongings, which looked like they were emptied from a couple of planes!
"Aunt Louise..why does he have all those suitcases?" he asked her even though he knew it was a pointless question, he knew what it meant.auntie Louise had come for a visit. But then Kai noticed what looked like cooks walking up the driveway and into the mansion with cutlery of types. Not only that but also more servants came walking up with MORE suitcases, but these were different, these had frilly edges and were covered in ribbons. However, that wasn't what bothered Kai.it was the rocking horse and toys that they were starting to carry up, and then he understood.
"Where is she?" he asked his aunt.

"Come on Taylor, we're going to be late!" Mariah yelled while changing into an unusual uniform. It was a pink and white stripped shirt with bright yellow trousers. She then put a cap on which had a 3-d design of three stacked toppings of different coloured ice cream.
Taylor than stepped out the room wearing the same thing.
"Mariah, remind me again why we have to work? Didn't you get tons of money for coming second at the Asian tournament? Not to mention the money you got from you parents..that's enough to live a thousand lifetimes!!!!" she pleaded.
"Yeah and??? Listen were young and alone here! Any chance that the council finds out that we can't look after ourselves they'll put you in a foster home and send me back to Asia. That money is proof that we can take care of ourselves so we're not wasting it now because you're too lazy!" Taylor sighed, Mariah was right as always.
*********************KAI'S P.O.V******************************
Kai ran through streets at a fast pace.
"Damn.where can that little brat be? Where would she go???...ICECREAM!!!!" he thought as he picked up speed.
******************AT*MARIAHS*AND*TAYLORS*WORK**************
"Welcome to the ice-cream factory, how may I help you?" Mariah asked politely to the couple on front of her.
"Um.we'll have a big banana split with extra cream, and the static strawberry whip." They replied.
"Sure, coming right up!" she smiled as she write down the order. She then walked over to the counter where Taylor was and gave her the order.
"Here you go, well it's my break now, if you want me I'll be rejuvenating over there." She sighed as she pointed to an empty table where the sun shined on the seats, probably why no one sat there. She timed her watch to go off in 15 minutes when her break was over. She leaned back and closed her eyes. She then felt a presence above her so she looked up to see someone standing in front of her. She sat up to get a better look at the person in front of her. It was a little girl; she looked about 6 or 7 with long and curly blue hair and greyish eyes and a frilly blue dress with bright red buckled shoes.
'Ah how sweet' Mariah thought.
The little girl leaned over to read Mariah's nametag.
"Excuse me..Mariah! But I would like to order a.."
"Hey, listen kid, I'm sorry but I'm on my break why don't you ask one of the other nice waitresses." Mariah tried saying sincerely..obviously she didn't hear her!
"AHEM!....I would like a triple swirl with strawberry sauce, a chocolate tower, the ice-cream cheese cake.um peach flavoured and..."
"WOW KID! Even if I was on duty..which I'm not, that stuff is kinda pricey! Especially for a little girl!"
The little girl then pulled out a blue purse with little brown bears on, and then took out of it loads of cash and a booklet.
"Would you like cash or cheque?" she asked.
"KAILENA!" called a voice from the entrance.
"Kai!" Mariah and the girl said in unison then looked at each other.
"How do you know my big brother???"
"WELL IF IT ISN'T MY FAVORITE NEPHEW!" wailed a middle-aged woman as she wrapped her arms around him and caught him in a death grasp.
