9 A storm in my Life (1/2)
(*present)
A weak body laid on the bed, entire her body seemed in a deep sleep but her mind actually doesn't sleep, it's wandering in a dream about her past...'I miss my family...I really want to see them again... why don't they come to visit me? Is it because of that time? I had left them...that's right! But it's because of that beast... all because of him...”
(*past)
In the early first morning since TianTian back to her home, a noise from outside house woke her up.Her room was in the second story and had a window faced to the outside of the front house, so curious about the noise; she walked to the window to open it but at once it opened, flashes of cameras irradiated her eyes. Clamours came out from the reporters and all were about her.
'There she is....!!'
”Ms. Tian, is it true you are the king's mistress?”
”Ms. Tian, can you tell us when was your regular meeting with the king? Was it in Li hotel? Once a week? Every night?”
”Ms. Tian, how long is your pregnancy period?”
'Wait...WHATTTT? Obviously, this has out of control...' In the flashes, TianTian could see the crowd of her neighbors start to swarm... the curiosity of human of course...and then from inside the house, suddenly a splash of water from a hose attacked the reporter in their surprise.It was Mrs. Tian, accompanied by TianWang.And that attack finally could casted the reporters away.Afterward, TianTian saw how her Mom and brother apologized to their neighbors for the annoyance.
It was just a start, later on, the day there was a lot of disturbing calls from any media, wanted to interview TianTian.And in one week, bad gossip had to spread in the environment.
”Do you know, their daughter is a mistress?”
First, TianTian ignored it when they talked badly about her, but it getting boldly, not only about her but also about her parents and brothers.
”What a shame, I thought they are respected figure....how did they teach other children if they couldn't manage their own daughter...”
”What a fraud...I wonder their sons perhaps also did immoral things behind us...”
Talking about the bad side of society, it also affected her family's martial school, the disciples became less and less to come.Only some faithful disciples stayed.One of them was Jeff Chang. who also TianTian's childhood friend.
If there was a man who could be allowed to stay beside TianTian by the brothers then it was Jeff Chang.It didn't mean that he never tasted the test of Tian brothers.In fact, he was the first man who tested by them when they were children and it really traumatized him.That's why he just could make his feeling to TianTian as a secret, deeply and acted as a best friend ever for her.During the condition, Jeff kept comforting TianTian with words.
”Don't worry 'bout the rumors, I believe it would disappear right away...I know you and your family are innocent.”
But all of what happened had made TianTian felt guilty to her parents.Even though her Dad and Mom asked her not to worry about their conditions, TianTian could not stop thinking that she brought a disaster to her home...she wanted to fix all these, no..., she must fix it but how?... How to stop the rumor if you don't have power in showbiz like...like LiMingHu... If TianTian rethought about it, she became weird why that beast didn't give any actions after what happened.Doesn't it also affect him? or does he purposely be silent, waiting for her, TianTian to back to him?'
”Sister TIANTIAN...” Suddenly hands hugging TianTian from her back but she didn't reject it cause she knew the voice,
”TianLang...you come home...I thought you are staying in the college mash?”
”Is that how you say to your long-time-not-see little brother, Sis? I am disappointing...you see I am missing you so much when I heard you re at home, I immediately managed myself to go home also...”
”But how about your study?...”
Among her brothers, TianLang is the most free-spirited, so he is also the one that sometimes makes TianTian worries so much.She tweaks TianLang's ear like doing to a child,
”Don't say that you abandoned the study...”
”Auchh, noooo, you know I wouldn't do that, I still don't want to be killed by our parents...”
TianTian released him, then seeing TianLang checked either his ear still attached or not, she became guilty,
”I am sorry, little bro; I just don't want you to do stupid thing.It is enough for our home that only me did that...”
”Yeah,I also heard about that... unfortunately, I could not go home faster to meet that bastard, if I could, I would already bake him alive...”
The way TianLang talked, like always, had making TianTian smiled,
”Thanks, little Bro, ...”
”O yeah, where's big bro? I'm looking for him but couldn't find him at the class as usual...”
”He was helping Dad at his drugstore...”
”Oooh I see, well maybe I need to go there to check Dad also...bye, Sis”
TianTian looked at her little brother going to the drugstore, TianTian sighed again,
