House of Dream, kupo's story.

Chapter 4- The boy.

Kendra was proud of her discovery, but she longed for more than a simple 2 lines. She spent the next 2 days sitting in her room alone, reading and re-reading the lines for hours.

"I must find that boy." She said pushing her tongue into her cheek.

"What boy?" Ciara asked. Kendra jumped startled. She had forgotten that Ciara had decided to take residence outside her bedroom door and a small foldout bed.

"The one in my dream." Kendra mumbled.

"You'll find him one day!" Ciara mused. Kendra had attempted to draw him many times for her little sister, but never quite got him right.

Kendra lay with her head just over the edge of her bed, looking up at her roof.

"What time is it?" She asked Ciara, to lazy to lift her arm and look.

"Four thirty" Ciara said, sounding kinda tired.

"Hairdressers in thirty minutes then?" Kendra asked rhetorically.

"Hey.." A voice said, a boy's voice. "Kevin told me to come up and call you to. Who thought that the Willow room looked this good.." What the voice said continued, but Kendra didn't here. She looked at the boy upside down.. It was him. The boy from her dream.

 

Chapter 5- The Garden

It had been almost twenty minutes and i hadn't said anything. I felt like such a fool. I sure i looked it too. My hands where in my face, covering my mouth and my hair hid my eyes. Was this love at first site? I hadn't felt the famous eruption, the 'burning' desire. But this boy. I've dreamed of him.

"Kendra had a dream about you.. She tried to draw you, but you looked funny." Ciara said. Trust Ciara to break the silence. But like this?

Kendra felt like dying, she could hear the sputtered laughter of that bitch she called sister.

Kendra cut Kym a dirty look before giving a not so hating one to Ciara.

"Sorry.." Ciara mumbled, forking her pea's. "Just thought he should know"

Kendra knew she wasn't sorry. She loved steering trouble.

"How about we take this food outside the back and have a picknik?" Mr. Henderson asked. Kendra looked to give him a thank you look. But when she saw those eye's. Something happened. She felt mad, a split second of delight, then nothing. She knew what it meant. But it was wrong. He was a teacher. A Male teacher. Over 10 years older then her.

She adverted his eyes quickly and walked outside the sliding door just through the dining room.

When Kendra stepped out into the garden, a wave of beauty hit her. She had realized all she had missed avoiding going outside.

The explosion of colour, was truly a delight on the eye. The exotic colours and vibrancy shocked her. There was a large pond in the far left, which titted a couple of swan's and some ducks with their ducklings. There was a huge wall about 200 metres down the garden. A massive red brick wall which was about 4 stories high. About 3 stories up there was a indent. Like a little room. there was little brick like rungs leading up there.

"The shed...", the words whispered in her head.

 

Chapter Six- Frantic


Kendra shook her head. She had been moving forward for sometime and was right under the rung's.

"The book!" She said, turning around and running flat out towards the garden, when something caught her eye. Kevin was sunbathing next to the pool. His perfect body made her stall. This is sooo wrong She said and looked at the ground and continued running. She kept mumbling to herself, "He's not hot.... I don't like him..." over and over in her head. When she got to the stair leading to her room. Or at least where the should be.

"Where's the stair's?" She asked herself panicking but also out of breath.

"There right there silly." Kendra turned around to see the little angel faced Ciara with her big brown eye's looking at her. She was sipping a bottle of Mountain Dew through a straw.

"When did you get here?" Kendra asked confused. But Ciara walked towards the wall, and passed through it.

"Ciara??!" Kendra asked, moving right up to the wall. It was there and it was perfectly solid. She banged on it a few times. And eventually Ciara came out.

"Why you just standing there?" Ciara asked. Kendra didn't want to scare Ciara, or confuse herself.

"I forgot what i came for." Kendra said pulling a fake smile. Ciara gave her a look which meant she knew she was lying but accepted it.

"Com'on Kenny!" Ciara said taking her hand and curling her fingers into it. "I wana catch some ray's." She said. Another smile crossed Kendra's face, but this one was real. She loved how much her sister tried to be like her, to be adult. It made her feel important.

The two girls had slowly made there way outside. Kendra had to stop for a second exiting the door to admire the scenery. The garden was truly magnificent. Ciara gave Kendra's hand a slight tug, pulling her the the pool.

She waste's no time does she? Kendra thought spitefully. Kym was on the boy's lap, whose name she had not yet learned, sitting on a bench at the far end of the garden.

Kendra made her way over the the pool, and sat right next to Mr. Henderson. As close as she could get while feeling comfortable. The closeness to his mostly naked body made her feel weird. A burning, selfish sensation burnt through her chest.

Kendra couldn't help but stare. She stared and stared and stared, not caring if he knew she was looking. When he jumped up abruptly. He looked panicked frantic. He ran and dived into the pool. Soon emerging with a body. Ciara.

Kendra jumped to her feet and quickly ran to the spot where Mr. Henderson lay Ciara, he began to give her mouth to mouth.

Kendra knelt down and gripped her sisters hand. Tears rolled down her cheeks. She felt so stupid. She knew Ciara couldn't swim. She should've been watching her, she didn't even hear her jump in.

 

Sorry guy's. That glitchy thing happened again so its all in capitols >.<



CHAPTER SEVEN- TIMELIMIT

KENDRA CLUTCHED CIARA’S HAND AT THE HOSPITAL BEDSIDE. HER HAND FELT COLD AND LIMP. MR. HENDERSON STILL HADN’T ARRIVED AT THE HOSPITAL,THEY ONLY ALLOWED ONE PASSANGER ON THE AMBULENCE AND MR. HENDERSON KNEW NOT TO STAND IN KENDRA’S WAY WHEN IT CAME DOWN TO HER SISTER.

THE PAIN OF GUILT MADE KENDRA FEEL PHYSICALLY SICK, HER STOMACH WAS SCREAMING AT HER, BURNING. BUT SHE COULDN’T LEAVE CIARA, SHE HAD TO ENDURE. KENDRA LOOKED UP FROM HER SISTER PEACEFUL FACE, AT THE ARRAY OF WIRE’S AND MONITORS AT HER BEDSIDE. THE NUMDER’S AND FLASHING LIGHTS MENT ALMOST NOTHING TO HER. BUT SHE KNEW FROM WATCHING GREY’S ANATOMY THAT THE BEEPING SOUND WAS A GOOD THING, IT WAS CIARA’S HEARTBEAT.

KENDRA RAN THE SITUATION OVER AND OVER IN HER HEAD. WHERE DID SHE GO WRONG. AT WHAT POINT DID SHE ABANDON HER FAMILY, HER BEAUTIFUL SISTER, FOR A MAN, ALMOST 20 YEARS OLDER THAN HER.

“I’M SORRY” SHE WHISPERED, AS TEAR AVALANCHED DOWN HER FACE, THERE WAS A SOTF KNOCK ON THE DOOR. A BLOND NURSE WEARING SCRUBS LEANED INTO THE DOORWAY. “THERE’S A MAN HERE TO SHE HER. HIS NAME IS KEVIN HENDERSON, SHOULD I LET HIM IN?” . KENDRA HESITATED FOR A SECOND, SHE WASN’T SURE WHAT THE ATMOSPHERE WOULD BE LIKE IF HE CAME IN. BECAUSE IN A WAY, HE CAUSED THIS. SHE FINALLY GAVE IN A NODDED. ALMOST IMMIDATLY SHE SAW WITH HER PEROCRUILAL VISION KEVIN ENTER THE ROOM..

“I SPOKE TO THE DOCTOR.” HE SAID SOLEMLY. “SHE GOT A LOT OF WATER IN HER LUNGS, THEY’VE DRAINED AS MUCH AS THE CAN. BUT BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF OXYGEN IN HER BRAIN, SHE MIGHT NEVER FULLY RECOVER.”

THE LMP IN KENDRA’S THROAT SWOLE TO ALMOST FIVE TIMES THE SIZE IT WAS BEFORE. HER SISTER MIGHT NOT WAKE UP, AND IF SHE DID SHE COULD HAVE BRAIN DAMAGE.

“I’M A SELFISH C*NT” SHE WHISPERED. “IT SHOULD BE ME ON THIS BED. NOT HER! SHE DOESN’T DESERVE THIS. SHE’S TO YOUNG” HER EYES WERE CLOSED, AND SHE PULLED HER HEAD DOWN INTO HER CHEST, HER HAND STILL BEARLY GRASPING CIARA’S.

MR. HENDERSON SCUTTLED ACROSS THE ROOM, TO STAND BEHIND KENDRA. HE PUT HIS ARM ON HER SHOULDER AND SQUEEZED TO TRY AND COMFORT HER.

“THIS ISN’T YOUR FAULT. NO ONE COULD OF PREDICTED THIS WOULD OF HAPPENED.”

LETTING GO OF CIARA’S HAND, KENDRA SWATTED MR. HENDERSON’S HAND OFF OF HER SHOULDER.

“THIS IS MY FAULT. I’M THE ONLY ONE WHO KNEW SHE COULDN’T SWIM. I SHOULD’VE BEEN LOOKING OUT FOR HER.”

“AS I SHOULD’VE ASWELL.”
“NO!” KENDRA SAID, LOUDER THAN SHE MENT. “THIS IS MY FAULT, YOUR NOT HER FAMILY. YOU HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR HER SAFTY. IT WAS ME! I CAUSE THIS!”

KENDRA DIDN’T LOOK AT MR. HENDERSON’S EXPRESSION, BUT SHE KNEW FROM THE LOW NOSE THA EMITTED FROM HIS THROAT THAT HE WAS HURT. HE PATTED HER ON THE BACK AND SAID IN A LOW VOICE “I’LL BE WAITING OUTSIDE.

AFTER HE LEFT THE ROOM KENDRA EXPLODED INTO TEAR’S. WHY DID SHE ALWAYS DO THIS. WHENEVER SHE WAS HURT SHE PUSHED OTHER’S AWAY. WHAT IF CIARA… DIDN’T MAKE IT? WHO WOULD LOOK OUT FOR HER THEN?

KENDRA PULLED CIARA’S HAND UP, CLUTCHING IT WITH TWO HANDS. PULLING IT UP TO HER HEART.

PLEASE BABY, BE OKAY… SHE WISHED OVER AND OVER IN HER HEAD. WHEN LIKE A MIRICAL SHE HEARD THAT SWEET ANGELIC VOICE,

“KENDRA. WHAT’S WONG? WHERE ARE WE?” HER VOICE WAS STRAINED AND RASHPING, BUT IT WAS HER VOICE NONE THE LESS. SHE WAS OKAY.

 

It get's more dramatic. Soap Opera like, wait for abit.

Spoiler (highlight to read)-
there will be two new characters showing there face's. And is Kendra really who she thinks she is? There will also be some lemon's

 

Chapter 8- A-okay

Everything wasn't okay. In fact it was hit. It had been a week since Ciara
had woken. I sat there clasping her sleeping hand in mine. I was sat on a hospital cot, pulled next to her's. The lack of oxygen had caused damage, as had my sharp tongue. Ciara had woken, and although she wasn't mentally damaged, she couldn't move her leg's. The doctor's trailed on about mylene breakdown and nerve erosion, but i tuned out. None of this registered with me, i never was good a biology.

Things with Kevin had gone from bad to worse. For the first few day's he would come and spend a hour or two sitting with me and Ciara. But lately he has only being staying for ten minute's to give Ciara magazines and talk to the doctor's. Why was he so upset with me? Its not as if what i said was that bad?........

 

Chapter Nine: Why?

Ciara had always been the good sister. The kind of sibling any sister would want. Time after time I would think how lucky I was. I still remember the day she came home from the hospital, I was just a little girl myself back then. I remember it like it was yesterday...

'Kendra' my dads voice sounded through our cordless phone, 'Kendra it's a baby girl, and she's perfectly healthy, your mother and I should be home any time now'.

'But dad what about...' The dial tone sounded. Hot tears filled my eyes. 'WHAT ABOUT MY DINNER!'I screamed down the phone. It had been two days since my parents had been home properly. Two days since I had eaten. Have they forgotten about me... don't they love me anymore?' what Kim said kept playing through my head 'Now that we're going to have a new baby there not going to care about you. Your useless to them now.'

'I'm not useless...' I said crying in a heap in our hallway. ' And I'm going to prove it'. I spent the next five hours cleaning the whole house, with only three 'boo-boo's'. Then I heard the car pull in, I ran to the front door swinging it open, running barefoot across the porch and down to the driveway where the car had stopped. I didn't want to see the baby, I just wanted to hug my mommy. But she was to busy holding the baby. In fact my parents walked right passed me. They didn't even say hi.

'Fine I don't care if you don't want me because I don't want to be here' I ran down the road, the around a few corner's. Before I knew it I was lost. It was getting dark and I was in the middle of know where, in my dressing gown. Thats when a mysterious boy approached me. He had black hair a brilliant blue eyes. When he saw me he ran away. Curious as to who he was I began to chase him. After I eventually caught up with him, we where standing outside my house. He smiled at me and seemed to disappear.

Walking in the front door I found I wasn't even missed. Storming up to my room I heard my dad shout in a whispered way 'Be quite you'll wake your sister'. That was it. I snapped. Walking to my room I got my foam sword I went to my old room, now the baby room. I was going to kill her. Using a box as a boost i climbed the side of the cot. This was the first time I saw the baby. She wasn't asleep. She was tiny lying there smiling up at me with her wrinkled red face and gummy mouth. Then I fell in love with my baby, and since then she hasn't been out of my sight. That night I swore that she would never let her get hurt. I also threw away my foam sword.

..

We were sitting in the lounge of Kevin's house watching Ciara's favorite show. Hannah Montana. She sat comfortably giggling at a part where Lily, stuck a fish down Miley's top. How can she be so strong I thought tears coming to my eye's. She may have been sitting in a leather 'Lazyboy' but her wheelchair wasn't far out of sight.

'I'll be right back hon'. I said heading towards the public bathroom to get a tissue. I still haven't been able to get back into my room. Opening the door I walked in on Kevin showering in the bathtub. 'Oh my god I'm so sorry!!' I screamed slamming the door closed and running away.
