The Devil's Sweetheart

"Essie, can you help me in selling my aunt in Amazon?" Cutie asked in mirth.

Cutie's wild imagination shocked Elsie. If she becomes a cahoots in Cutie's plan, her mom and dad would spank her. Elsie slowly pulled her mobile from Cutie's grip and spoke to Cutie. "I am sorry Cutie. I have to go now. My mom will get worried otherwise. Maybe tomorrow, we will do that."

"Don't go. I will give you ten mole dollal." Despite Cutie's tempting offer, Elsie did not succumb to her wishes this time.

With nothing to do, Cutie pouted her lips and jumped from the bed to go in search of Andrew to accomplish her mission. "Andew don't even ask money."

....

"Leena," Francis called her monotonously but only he knew how much he is trying to suppress his laughter. "Savny is just a kid. Just let her go this time. I will talk with her."

"That brat threatened to cut my throat," Leena grumbled.

"And who has taught those gestures? You are her teacher." Francis retorted.

"But_"

"End of the discussion." Francis declared. "Go and have dinner first."

Wordlessly, Leena strolled along with Devin to have her dinner. I need to load the fuel to fight with that brat. Leena has a gut feeling that Cutie is up to something because she saw her talking sweetly with Andrew. It's her trump card to lure people into the trap.

"I can't believe even kids are eyeing my son." Frederick sighed proudly looking at his friends. "What can I say? It's all my genes."

"Thank God! If your son had got Evelyn's genes, you have to lock him in the room for eternity." Arnold added with a mock.

"Well said, brother." Evelyn giggled giving a high five to Arnold.

"Get lost, Arnold Weller. You are just jealous that I am more handsome." Frederick's world turned into ashes, not because of Arnold's provocations but watching Evelyn's heckling expressions. 'It's been a long time I bullied my eve. Today is the time.'

....

The dinner was happening in delight and everybody settled in groups according to their preference.

As Leena was gobbling up her food, her eyes occasionally would flicker to Reese and Andrew. From the time they entered, she smelled fishy between the two. When Andrew looks in Reese's direction, she would immediately turn away and the same is happening with Andrew. Am I imagining or it is real? What are these two? I have to find out today.

Finally, the party ended and one by one the guests started leaving. Cutie and Leena did confront each other after the fight. Devin and Wilbur made sure both were not in each other vicinities to avoid the war.

Reese and Leena helped Jane in removing the decorations. When Leena went to the backyard to throw the trash, her soul left the body when she saw a silhouette hiding beside the trashcan. Since the light was not switched on here, terror has eaten her like a horse. "G_Ghost....ghost...." She screamed.

"Shhh...shh.I am not a ghost, Miss Narcissist." Kurt hushed her.

"Mr. Swedish Butler!" Leena's eyes wide opened in surprise. Squatting down in front of him, she asked. "You scared the wits out of me. By the way, what are you doing here?"

"Escaping...."

"From_"

"Hey, crazy Leena...What are you doing here?" Leena jerked awake from start and turned around hearing the voice.

"Why are you here, Wendy?" Leena asked standing up from the ground.

"Did you see Kurt Weller? That damn FBI agent is escaping from my clutches all the time." Wendy asked slurping a lollipop.

"Hey, lollipop. Leave that poor guy alone. He doesn't like you." Leena said, covering the man behind with her body.

"For that matter, he doesn't like any woman," Wendy grinned. "So, I got blessings from his father and I am permitted to court him."

"Damn it! Arnold.." Kurt cursed at his father.

"You spoke with him already?" Leena's mouth turned into a big O. This girl is too fast.

"Of course, His dad is fine as long as it is a woman." Wendy giggled. "Have you seen him?"

Kurt was silently praying Leena would not tell about his whereabouts.

"I have seen," Leena looked over her shoulders and was amused by his stiffened expression. Scaring Kurt Weller is her wish and it happened.

"Is it? Where?" Wendy asked in excitement.

"I saw him going into the garden."

"Thank you, crazy Leena." Wendy winked and dashed outside in a flick of a second.

"Thanks for saving me, miss Narcissist." Kurt came out of the shadows. "That lollipop is torturing me from Austin's wedding. I don't know from where she got my number. I will kill that bastard if I catch."

Clearing her throat, Leena asked."You shouldn't curse people, Mr. Sweetish butler. They just wanted to tease you."

"Why are you so concerned?" Kurt asked suspiciously.

"Because l am a human being. By the way, Is she torturing you a lot?" Should I delete the traces of his number from Wendy's phone? No. Let him deal with it.

"Sometimes she even calls in the midnight with unknown numbers." Kurt lifts the call thinking that it is case-related but it proves otherwise.

"Again, thanks for saving me." Kurt's impression of Leena changed today. It was only him, even Leena saw a different side of him.

"Where are you going?" She asked when she saw him changing the course of his direction.

"Home. After all, I should make use of your help to the full extent."

"He is not that bad." Except in Elysian's case. Leena's devil reminded her of the humiliation he gave it to her. "Leave it, Devil. His ego must have hurt a lot."

....

By the time the four of them were back to Greenwyn village, the sky has turned dark.

"I will go and talk with uncle Pumpkin and Reese for a while." Changing her dress into a comfy one, she pecked Devin's lips before going out.

"I will spank your back if you come back drinking."

"I am not a drunkard." Leena knocked on the door of uncle Pumpkin's house until it was opened.

"We need to find out," Leena said.

"I am ready." Uncle Pumpkin retorted and knocked on the door of Reese's house.

"What is it?" Reese opened the door and allowed them inside. She knew they are here to interrogate her. What can she do? Her expressions were obvious at the party and to her bad, Leena saw it. Reese couldn't control her emotions when it came to him.

"Reese Allen, it came to our notice that your behavior was abnormal at the party. For that matter, we demand a reason."

"I_I it's nothing_"

"I saw your nervousness when you were talking with that boy." Uncle pumpkin added.

Reese has no escape except, to tell the truth. "I_I like him."

"What?" Leena exclaimed. Do both sister and brother like the same person? "Why didn't you tell me then?"

"No one knows about it," Reese mumbled.

"Since when? No. Tell us the whole story."

"I know him from my childhood," Reese said, Andrew's smiling face popped into her mind which made her smile. "We have nicknames also. He calls me Ree and I call him Rew. After school hours, he tags along with my brother to play video games. His smiling face, charming personality," Reese sighed hugging her knees recalling the days. "I can't get enough of him. I like him a lot. He is my first love."

"Woah!" Leena clapped her hands in excitement. "Such a cute story. Is that the reason you didn't show interest in dating?"

"Yeah."

"Traitor." Leena hit Reese's shoulders."You threw all the blame on me. Then why did you crush on my babylicious?"

"Hey! crazy Leena, if I like someone it doesn't mean, I shouldn't crush on other men."

"Quite a logic." Leena nodded in approval.

"Why didn't you express your feelings to him?" Uncle pumpkin asked. "You should be fast in these kind of things."

"I_I am scared that he would reject me." Reese muttered. Besides, she doubts that something is going on between her brother and Andrew. Although her brother dated lots of girls from school days itself, he suddenly put an end to his casanova nature. The best friends turned into mortal enemies but both are living as neighbors despite their hate.

Leena's thoughts are in confusion now. The way Andrew looked at Reese, she could see the affection in his eyes are directed towards Reese but what about Jasper.. I have to find out.
