I will never be like her

When Carlos was busy talking on his phone when the doorbell rang. Harley stood on her feet and walked to the door. As she opened the door Carlos yelled "Harley no..." but the door was already wide open.

At the door stood a girl who seem to be in her teenage wearing white crop tops with short denim along with white canvas shoes. Her hair was tied to high pony. She had fair skin and there were dimples on her either cheeks like Carlos.

As Harley was done looking from tip to bottom she brought her gaze back to her face. She was tucking her phone on her ear and she was slowly chewing gums. Her expression was also same as Harley's shocked and stunned.

Before they could open their mouths to ask Carlos came and standing in between said "Hey, Jannat I didn't knew you were calling me from outside..."

"Is that your girlfriend?" Jannat tried to look behind him but Carlos was blocking her way.

"What no... I am not his girlfriend" said Harley stepping out and standing beside Carlos. Carlos rolled his eyes as he was trying to hide her from Jannat which indeed went to vein.

"Oh! she is cute..." said Jannat and stretching her hand towards Harley she introduced herself "Hello, I am Jannat Carlos's junior sister..."

"What he have a sister?" Harley got shocked.

"Yeah he never introduce his family to anyone including me his sister..." she said chewing her gums.

Harley gave look of astonishment to Carlos which he completely ignored.

"So you didn't said your name sister" said Jannat.

"I am..."

Carlos interrupted her "You called her sister so no need to know her name. Come in..."

He pulled Harley's wrist and wishpered on her ear "I want to have a talk with Jannat will you please give us some privacy?"

Harley nodded her head feeling low and said "ofcourse this is your home. You don't need to ask privacy from me. I will be back in the garden."

Carlos felt bad as Harley walked away but he had no other choice. He then sat on the couch opposite to Jannat and asked "tell me why are you here?"

"Mom wants to meet you. She said she had called you numerous times but you didn't attended any. So she sent me to..."

"To convey her message from her owl..." said Carlos.

Jannat tightened her grip and yelled "I am not her owl.."

"Really? Then why did she send you instead of coming herself. It is she who needs me now isn't it?" asked Carlos.

Jannat's eyes were filled with tears lowering her head she said "She sent me because she thinks that it's only me who you love and listens to. But little did she know that you hate me more than her."

"I don't hate you" said Carlos looking away.

"Anyway she wants you to return back to the family as you are only heir..."

Carlos interrupted "they are not my family never was and never will. She never treated me as a family member before and now when she is in need of someone who can take the power of attorney she is calling me in? Are you serious? Where was she when I needed her the most? Forget about me where was she when my grandma was taking her last breath and longing to see her before taking her last breath. She didn't even came to attend her funeral and now she want me to return back to her. I will never forget that humiliation which I faced everyday when I went to request her to come and showed up in front of Grandma for one last time. Forget about showing up she didn't even gave me a chance to speak. And now she wants me back she definitely must be kidding me..."

"I know Carl and I too know that you will never come back but still I came so that I can see you. You know I don't get this chance of meeting you everyday. So I just grabbed this opportunity and came to see you hope the bitterness you had in your heart for mom is not same for me..." said Jannat in broken voice.

Carlos was seeing the tears rolling down her eyes.

"I just can say that our brother sister bond will remain until you turn evil like her and ruin other's lives like she did. The day you turn like her will be the last day I will be calling you my sister..."

Jannat lifted her head up and glancing at him with eyes full of tears she said "I will never be like her Carl. I know I have her blood on me but it do have combination of our father. Though our mother were different but our father is same. The genesis you were born from is same genesis I was born. So I will never give a chance to win my mother against our father. I will never be like her..."

Carlos swallowed hard being speechless. He regretted being so hard on her. As he was about to say something suddenly they hard Harley's screams.

They both got up in shock and ran out. Carlos heart thumped out loud. For the first time he was praying god to keep her safe.

As they got on the garden they saw Harley lying on the ground and crying out in pain. When they approached her their eyes widened seeing her feet covered with blood.

"Harley what happened?" asked Carlos crouching in front of her.

"I... I am sorry I just stumbled and my feet stepped hard on that broken pieces of glasses..." she cried out pointing towards the pieces of glass which was all covered with her blood.

Carlos carried her on his arms and rushed inside "Jannat go and get some water from the kitchen and first aid kit from the kitchen's cupboard." Ordered Carlos keeping Harley carefully on the couch.

Jannat nodded her head hurriedly and ran towards the kitchen. Carlos furiously took his phone out of his pocket and dialed Sam his butler's number and as soon as he answered the call he yelled in anger "Vacation is over get here along with all the workers in fifteen minutes..."

"I..." Sam was stammering something but Carlos disconnected the call without listening to him.
