Chapter 9


    Read Fated to Them by Jessica Hall Chapter 9 – I roll my eyes opening the door further and notice Eli


    standing behind him, dressed simrly but with a suit jacket on and tie.


    “You’re early” I state, stepping aside for them to enter. They both walk in before stopping in the


    entryway.


    “You have a nice home, but I swear I recognise your car in the driveway from somewhere” Eli says as


    he follows me to the kitchen. I pause and look back at him. “Cut anyone offtely?” Eli says before he


    chuckles. I nce at Cyrus who has a smile on his lips.


    “Rx, we knew it was you that cut us off, though I would still like to punish you for it” Cyrus says. I


    gulp but he walks past me where Maya was still trying to force her breakfast down and I let out the


    breath I was holding. I walk over to her and k**s her head and she turns looking at me before noticing


    them.


    She stares at them before looking at me, they stare back at her and I could see a little confusion on


    their faces because Maya looked just like my sister, and therefore was also my carbon copy.


    “She looks like you, the resemnce is uncanny” Eli says stepping closer to her, she looks up at him


    shyly.


    “Hi” She says nervously before looking back at me. I point to the photo on the wall behind them.


    “My sister” I tell them wondering why they cared that we looked so much alike. I already told them she


    wasn’t mine, not that it was any of their business if she were. Cyrus turns looking at the photo of me


    and my sister before she became a d**g addict, when we still looked identical.


    “You’re a twin, and Identical” I nod. Grabbing Maya’s now empty bowl. I ce it in the sink and grab her

    clothes. I leave them standing in my kitchen before taking her upstairs and quickly dressing her in her


    school uniform. Coming back down I sit her on the bench cing her socks and shoes on her feet. Eli


    and Cyrus both looked at all the pictures on the wall, also watching me. I could feel their eyes roaming


    over me making me very aware how odd it was that they were in my house.


    “Who is this man to you?” Eli asks, staring at the photo with an angry expression on his face that


    startled me, Cyrus held a simr expression as he red at the photo.


    “That would be my father, he died when I was sixteen” I tell them. They nod and I see Cyrus raise an


    eyebrow at Eli. Both watching me but I ignore them putting Maya’s shoes on her feet and tying the


    “We need to leave soon,” Cyrus says looking at his watch. I grab the hairbrush from on top of the


    microwave and start pulling her up quickly. Maya whining as it tugs on her curls.


    “I’m sorry baby” I tell her when her hair bes tangled around the brush and pulls a couple of


    strands out. Pulling it into a high ponytail for her I then grab her backpack tossing it over my shoulder


    before grabbing my bag and her hand. Cyrus follows directly behind me as I reach down to grab my


    bag near the door, his hand snakes out grabbing it.


    “I will get this,” He says, and I open the door, stepping out waiting for them to step past me and |


    quickly lock the deadbolt on the door. Walking past my car to the end of the driveway I notice a limo


    parked on the curb.


    “Aunty Ada what happened to the car, why is it so long?” She says, staring at it. Eli walks past opening


    the door before answering her.


    “It’s a Limo, it’s how they are made” He tells her, holding his hand out to her she stares at it hesitantly


    before cing her tiny hand in hisrge one. He helps her step in and I notice a man get out of the


    front grabbing my bag from Cyrus. Hopping in, I slide across the seat before cing Maya’s seat belt


    on. I notice neither of them bothered to put one on.


    “You are meant to wear a seatbelt” Maya says and they seem a little shocked by her calling them out


    before Eli smiles, clicking his into ce.


    “Better?” He asks and she nods. I felt awkward sitting opposite them, their eyes trailing over me and I


    pulled the front of my skirt down that kept riding up so I wouldn’t sh them my underwear. The trip to


    the before school care facility only took a few minutes but it felt like forever under their gaze.


    As we pulled up Eli undid his belt following me out. He pulls his phone from his pocket before showing


    it to Maya.


    “Thisdy is going to pick you up after school and take you to your grandma” he tells her, showing her


    the photo he sent me.


    “She is pretty like a fairy, what is her name?” Maya beams up at him. Maya seemed to really like them


    which I thought was strange. She was usually pretty standoffish with strangers, especially men, yet she


    spokefortably with them, not intimidated like I was by them.


    “Her name is Emery” Eli tells her and Maya nods.


    “I emailed her teacherst night to let her know,” I tell him, and he nods once before hopping back in


    the car. I walk her inside before rushing back out not wanting to be the reason they arete.


    Climbing back in, I slide along the seat. I suddenly felt very ustrophobic without Maya as a


    distraction in the small space with them. I tug my skirt down as it rides up as I move across the seat


    across from them.


    “Nice purplece panties” Cyrus says, his eyes looking between my legs. My face was heating knowing


    he had already caught a glimpse. He smirks at how ufortable I have be.


    Reaching down and grabbing my handbag I ce it on myp to hide myself from them.
