The Daughter of a Legend

Loading ...All the next week, at school, things seemed out of focus and distant. Huh. I was the daughter of a super-smart Irish billionaire, given away at birth and about to be reunited with her family.
Huh.
I’d pinched myself so many times, the skin on my upper arm was bruising. I switched to the other arm.
Finally, Friday came. Di was practically bouncing up and down in her seat. “We’re going to Ireland! We’re going to Ireland!” she sang joyfully. She even sang in the airport, until I gave her a would-you-shut-up-already-people-are-staring look. Then she just whispered it under her breath.
The plane trip was long, made all the more so by the fact that I knew this would be the last few days I would get to spend with Di and Mom. Di didn’t seem to get that, bouncing even in her plane seat, her blonde curly hair following her bounce by a half-second. Ice blue eyes sparkled, and she seemed totally unaware that her sister was about to be handed over to a stranger like a sacrificial lamb.
Di saw my depressed expression. She leaned away from Mom, who had conveniently fallen asleep. “What’s so bad? You’re going international!” She beamed at me.
I just looked at her.
“I promise I’ll write,” she sang.
No answer.
“But only if you will,” she added seriously.
“You just don’t get it, do you Di?”
“Get what?”
I paused. “Nothing. Never mind.”
She therefore caught on immediately. “Oh. I’ll miss you too, An.” She gave me a sad little smile. “Now, can we please try and be happy about going to Ireland?”
“Will I be required to bounce?”
“Yes.”
“Then no.”
“Please?”
“No.”
“Pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease?”
“No, no, no, no, no.”
“Fine. You don’t have to bounce.”
“Alright then.”
Silence.
“So, happy?”
“You never said I had to be vocally happy.”
Di groaned. “You are sooo impossible!”
“And you are soooo immature!”
“Whatever.”

Well, I had a different idea for the plot in the next one… something about an old criminal coming back, cause I didn’t think any criminal I made up would be anything except depressed… Je ne sais pas.

Sorry, but it’s done for now. I’ve got two sequels out - it’s not a series, it’s two different versions of the same sequel. “Enemies of Old” (which has died but is the sort of humor you seem to find on these sites) and “Life Of A Teenage Heiress” which is slightly more angsty and serious, but also has some funny parts.
July 27th, 2008 at 4:02 pm
I liked “Enemies of Old”! Could you please try and continue it?
July 27th, 2008 at 4:07 pm
Sorry, forget my other comment above this. I did like it, though.
